Food was amazing!!! Service was excellent and very nice and accommodating, the ambience is as expected because it's a local old school place to hang out to have a bite and shakes. A bit pricey but worth it. read more

The service was friendly and quick. I wish this wasn't a cash only place. I got the cheeseburger with onions, sauce, and added bacon. The bacon added a great crispiness to the sandwich. The sauce was a bit overwhelming due to the amount. If I could have swapped my cheese out for pepper jack or swiss, this would have been a great burger, but it was good. The cheese fries were disgraceful. The cheese was barely melted and you could still see the 2 slices of what im assuming was kraft cheese slapped on the fries. I threw them into my microwave for a minute and the cheese still didnt melt. I don't recommend these fries. The price is high and even if they were $1 I wouldn't recommend. The fries themselves were also soggy and could use some salt. The berry milkshake was amazing and you could tell it was real berries. I would come here again for a burger and shake but i would skip the fries for sure. read more

I was really looking forward to the chili cheese fries, but unfortunately, I was very disappointed. The chili tasted like canned chili, topped with a slice of American cheese, and my husband even saw the staff microwave the food. If I were there, I would've said, "You know what, I don't want the chili cheese fries--I can just open a can at home and pour it over frozen fries I put in the air fryer at home." The burger was just a frozen patty with no flavor or care--basically the same as McDonald's or Carl's Jr. The only thing that was decent was the milkshake. We ordered two cheeseburgers, an order of chili cheese fries, and a small order of fries, and it cost $36. That's a complete waste for this place. I had high hopes because their other location in Citrus Heights is much better, but it seems like, many places these days have stopped caring and are just settling for the bare minimum. As a chef, it's especially discouraging when you don't feel like cooking at home and can't even get a decent burger and chili cheese fries out. Maybe it's the area, but I cannot recommend this location. read more

We drove by and loved the old building, so we stopped on a whim with the kiddos. Burgers were super flavorful and a decent size. My favorite was their milkshakes. I had the fresh banana and my husband had a chocolate malt, both were sooo good. The banana was one of the best I've had. Will be returning! read more

Definitely a great spot! read more

Lou's is a gem! This little drive in spot is adorable. The service is fast but their menu is filled with all sorts of hidden treats and finds. Our family is a huge fan of their desserts. Their strawberry shake has chunks of strawberry in it and when you get the extra large it's incredibly filling. They have all the standard diner foods with some outdoor seating available. Strongly recommend! read more

Lou's burger is amazing. The person taking the order was very helpful. The food was cooked perfectly. Double cheese burger. Larger burger size than expected. The fries were crispy and hot. The ice in the drink is crushed ice. It made the drink refreshing and was delicious. The total was $19.07. A bit expensive but worth it. read more

Stopped by a few days ago and really looked forward to a Lou's burger. It's CASH ONLY. Who doesn't accept ATM cards? Felt very sketchy to me. Too bad. Won't be back. read more

Cool drive in spot. Stopped by when I had an event in the area. I got a doubled cheese burger and some moz sticks. The burger was good, classic drive in style. The moz sticks were excellent. Didn't get a drink but their shakes looked excellent. Note is cash OR debit only. There is a 1.25 charge on the debit. Staff was quick and pilot. read more

Lou's burgers are overrated. I didn't think their burgers were that great. The prices are very high. My boyfriend and I went there this past Sunday we got a hamburger and a milkshake. It was $20 too high for just a small milkshake and a regular hamburger. my boyfriend asked if they can cut it in half. The lady at the window was very rude to him. She said next time asked to have it cut never will I ever go there again and I would not recommend that place to anybody. read more

Old school burger joint. We had a little scare that this north highland gem might disappear, but we survived. The burgers are big, and they use that special sauce similar to Big Mac. Potato buns, thick patties and shlettuce. It's not a fancy burger, and doesn't taste like one, but tastes more like what burgers tasted like back in the 90s. It's nostalgic, and it's perfect. The chili fries are so fire. It's meat chili and it's just damn good. I also love their old school milkshake. I think the owners and workers are the sweetest people in the world. I am so glad we have this amazing burger place in our community and we should all go support this mom and pop joint!!! read more

This is the place for a good tasting old style burger! The old style Drive-In! The new owners are great!

I don't mind if there's high school people working but what I do mine, it's when they're touching their face- rubbing their hair ,no gloves, eating the food while they're making it. He was UNBELIEVABLE .!!!! The food was bland and dry. I really want to like this place people talk about it. The old lady just walking around looking at all the customers surrounding the restaurant and not even greeting them, 3 different customers left- It's time for her to retire asap. read more

Service was great food wasn't that good my grandmother got a fish sandwich was dry and just not good and my grandpa got a chillie dog he said the hotdog was good but the chillie wasn't good it comes with beans which we thought it was chillie with no beans but that's just nitpicking the fries are bad not regular trash but the zucchini fires are great but service was excellent food wasn't very good and it's very pricey mybe we didn't get their signature food dish but what we got was very bad don't get those if you do go and get the zucchini fries. read more

They were so rude, the food was cold! Definitely not the Lou's I went to when I was younger

The food was fine, though the service could be better. It's best to bring cash, as card payments are processed like an ATM withdrawal, which may result in both a bank fee and an additional $1.25 charge from the restaurant. Prices are relatively high for the type of food offered--two meals with burgers, fries, and small drinks came to just over $45. As a drive-in, there is no indoor seating, so be prepared for outdoor dining, which can be warm during the summer months. read more

Stopped here once, months ago. Loved the flavors. Cheeseburger and a large chocolate shake. read more

Food and service is great. If you want good burgers and fries this is the place to go. The chickens strips are the best. Don't miss out.

A classic little burger joint that serves great burgers, fries and shakes (hello bacon burger). Service can be hit and miss, but the lady who runs it is always great. Also love the jalapeño poppers and fried zucchini sides. It's not everyday you find those options at a burger stand. read more

Like going back in time! Tastebuds and tummy will thank you. Fresh food, good service, cheerful staff, clean and nostalgic.

Great value for what you're getting! The double cheeseburger taste like a larger and better version of a Big Mac from McDonald's and at a better price. The fried Mac and cheese was decent and I liked how it came out really hot. It definitely wasn't gourmet food but it is fast food at its finest. I would go here again if I'm craving a quick burger at a great value. read more

Nice people, good traditional hamburger place that is reasonably priced. Awesome milk shakes.

Saw this spot and decided to stop. Great burgers! I got mine with lettuce, onions and pickles. Unlike other spots (not enough pickles) there's pickles in every bite! The sauce (their original!) was tasty and just the right amount! Their fries are crinkle cut and cooked perfectly! Iced tea was freshly brewed! The food came out quickly! We were too full to get ice cream, but will definitely be back. Cash or debit card. read more

Great burgers and shakes. Burgers have a delicious sauce. The shakes come in a multitude of flavors and are thick as a milkshake should be.

Cash only . Burgers are good but a bit high in cost could be better. Service a little slow but acceptable. It's a drive in it's cool for car show or get togethers Social events read more

One of my favorite local spots to swing into, food is delicious I always get a doubles Lou's, can't forget mozzy sticks or cheese bites! Fast service and nice place to swing in for a quick bite. Will be back again! read more

The cashier was pretty rude. I thought it was just me but I was eating lunch there with a co worker and when we left I asked him if i was delusional or was she a little rude and he said she was really rude. The price was kind've steep for a local burger joint even for the sodas it was like almost $5. The chile cheese fries were pretty goof. The burgers dressing had a sour taste to it thought like too much pickles or something. read more

Tried this place for the first time recently...with all the great things I've heard, and living pretty close by I figured why not? First- if I could leave a separate rating for the guy who took my order I'd give him 5 stars...he was a younger guy working the order window and cooking food and he was the sweetest thing. Super polite and friendly, even complimented me and made me laugh. Now for the food...it was ok. I felt like they didn't really season the meat at all so it was kinda bland. And there was a lot of sauce on my burger...almost too much sauce. The bun was getting soggy before I finished the burger. I got a side of fried zucchini and a chocolate peanut butter milkshake- both of those were wonderful. I would definitely go back, because this place has potential. I think I'd just tell them to do a few things different when making my burger. read more

the quality of the burger was terrible, tried to eat it got sick and threw up. i have visited them several times, usually very good. this time wed may 6th 2026, it was terrible, i took a co-worker who later called me and told me her meal was terrible also.i called and ask for the owner,they returned my call Fri. may 9th,explained the situation, i wanted my money back. didn't get a chance to say it, he said sorry about the bad experience, won't happen again, he also stated 2 people worked that day, an older white woman and a orient woman. i explained i only saw 1 person, the older white woman who helped us, and that I was very disappointed, the lettuce was old, lots of it, cut up with onions, no cheese, pickles,tomatoes. or mayo only heavy mustard, he said it wasn't mustard it was a sauce and proceeded to say we don't put mayo, tomatoes or etc. on it and said sorry about your experience, it won't happen again, ypu had a really bad experience, thanks for letting we know you never saw the other person working. then hung up on me. when i initialky called and ask for the owner, the lady answered the phone, after giving my name said, weren't you just here, i said yes. then ask, why do you want the owner, i can help you. i said no, ask the owner to call me pls. she said they don't usually come in. the only way she took my name and message, i ask dothey take calls for a complement, she instantly said oh yes, i will make sure they call you. i will not recommend it to anyone again, nor will i go back. Oh didn't have cheese either. I actually ordered a cheese burger. read more

My wife and I found Lou's when we rented storage in the area. We love their combo chocolate vanilla cones as well as there other fairs. It's an older building outside seating is standard.

Lou's has been in the community for years I remember walking to it often in Jr High and High school. On this trip my husband and I only ordered milk shakes.

I need to come back and get the onion rings or chili cheese fries, I love crinkle fries. read more
