Huge selection in menu. Fair prices for the quality and portion size. French onion soup was 11/10 better than my main course which was crispy chicken sandwich , just a little too plain for me but my fault for ordering. It is super dark inside , if you want a little lighter there is the smoking patio , or a couple booths at the front were lighter. Our server was super friendly and fairly quick to get our order and food come out. read more

Food is good and atmosphere fun. Server's friendly, and excellent music. Only bad point is management is incapable of handling customer service politely. So if you need help with something requiring management ~ be ready for rude and impatient behaviour. Won't be going back as I was recipient of this, and actually had really discourteous comments spoken to me. Cheers. . read more

Killer happy hour, I love the smoking friendly patio, always busy in a good way. The food is just as good as it was before the fire. The spicy Seafood fettuccini with a side of Alfredo, all, day, long. read more

Decent but slightly pricey pub just oustide downtown Abbotsford. Parking is available in front, as well as behind the building. Wasn't sure what to expect to be honest. The place burned down a few years ago (2017?) so I wasn't sure if it was under the same ownership etc. With that said, they sure did a good job fixing up the place. Everything looks new and modern and classy. Besides the L-shaped main dining area, there is also an upstairs dining area (closed when we went) as well as a nice outdoor patio along the N side of the building, complete with nice fancy gas fireplaces and all. Worth checking out during the summer months. Staff were were friendly. No complaints there. The Lou's Original burger I had wasn't really a burger. It was more of a half sub (think of something like beef dip). The price was a bit higher than I expected, but the fixings were all there. Lettuce, tomato, nice melty cheese, bacon, a few mushrooms, and red onions. I was happy. The fries were pretty tasty too, and there was a decent portion. Definitely worth a return visit at some point. read more

Really liked the food. Staff were not uptight even though they were extremely busy. My only complaint is based on my old fashioned... if you say it has a Luxardo cherry in the drink, there should be a cherry in the drink. Also, the large ice cube tasted so strongly of chlorine that it ruined the drink as the cube melted. Really loved the food. Rob/chicken combo was great. read more

Service was good. Food tasted fine, but they didn't exactly get it right. I got the blackened Cajun chicken entree ($28). The problems: it wasn't blackened. They missed that step. The roasted potatoes were not roasted, they were just boiled; again missed a step. The "grilled" asparagus were clearly not grilled, again, cutting corners. It all tasted fine, but the lack of presentation was also another ding. Overpriced. Lackluster. Good server though (which was the only saving grace). read more

Well dont get the seafood fettuccine. $32 and only 3 prawns 2 scallops 6 mussels and a few fish flakes and a honking pile of fettuccine noodles. Sauce was like glue. I usually just come for the scallops and bacon which are incredible. I will stick with that. $32 for the seafood fettuccine is a joke. read more

If you want a fancy dinner or just a night out for drinks then Lou's is the place to go! They have a great selection of beer on tap and make a good Long Island ice tea. The food is fantastic, I've had steak, burgers, and wings during different visits and I have not been disappointed. There are numerous tvs so you can keep up on the latest game. The staff are well trained and attentive, service is really fast. Parking can be rough but you can park at the garage and church next door. read more

Been a couple times. Every time is insanely busy and super loud. Like ridiculously loud. Sat one time on the patio which was a lot better. Food is really good and fresh, but in the higher end of prices. Recommend the wings and the artichoke dip. read more

Good atmosphere, good drink selection, food was hot and full of flavor. Will definitely be going back if in the area again.

Great food, can get a little loud and hard to hear. Parking availability is often an issue during busy times and also we left due to excessive wait times. read more

Good for groups. Make reservations. Outside dining is great option Crab Mac and cheese is apparently not on menu anymore. If it's your birthday ask for your free shop. read more

A brilliant local Canadian owned restaurant that is lit! Best burgers and a great place for date night. We can even book smoking tables. Being going here with my family and boyfriend for years. It onlygets betterwith time. read more

The chairs on the patio are very uncomfortable. We had a party of 6 if we didn't have the cushioned back wall we would have been out an hour earlier. Figure that was an extra 12-18 drinks that would be lost read more

Dim Sum Appy Steamed with MOLD and MOUSE POO. I took my children here for a snack yesterday afternoon and was horrified to find mouse poo and mold on the top of the bamboo steamer the dim sum came in.... after we ATE it!!! YES! We are food steamed in mouse poop and mold. See attached photos if you have the stomach for it. I will never return and will warn every single person I know. Worst dining experience of our lives. My son was sick and now 24 hours later still not feeling better. Disgusting. Save yourself the horror. Honestly. Words cannot describe... read more

Second time going to this place food was well prepared really quick service waitresses were friendly and attentive good overall vibe a little bit expensive for what you get but you get what you pay for I guess nice meal. read more

I had the quesadilla which was bland. I ordered a beer from the menu; they didn't have it, and recommended the house beer. The noise level was incredible and the parking lot was not big enough to hold the crowd. The sign said their overflow parking was the big church lit a block away. Not a great experience. read more

Good food easy going staff. Highly recommend. I have been a few times and never had a bad experience.

Great spot for brunch. Wonderful eggs benny with home fries and salad. A bit dark inside but service was great and food was delicious. read more

My family and I first went to Lou's Grill recently and were very impressed. Although the restaurant was very busy, the carpark was full, there were staff everywhere and no wait time to get seated and order drinks. The menu is typical American Bar food, and I opted for a club sandwich which was (almost) too large for me. Three slices of fresh wholegrain bread, generous slices of chicken breast and avocado. All the ingredients were fresh. That was served with a very large portion of fries which are thick cut and also good quality. You'll find a modern interior that looks recently refurbished and looks sort of a like a night club. Everything was nicely spaced out and comfortable though. The servers are notably efficient and very friendly. My family were delighted with our lunch and look forward to our next visit. read more

I've always wanted to try this place ever since I lived in Abbotsford over 20 years ago. Sadly I didn't then but sure glad to try it recently. The burger connoisseur that I aspire to be, we both went for that dish and were not at all disappointed! The mushrooms on top were so delicious as was the bacon and hearty beef burger. The fries were great and the gravy was mouthwatering so that I wanted to drink it! If I had to make 1 suggestion it would be to make the fries a wee bit thicker but keep cooking then exactly the same. Nice decor and friendly, attentive service. Will definitely be back soon!! read more

It has been many years since we've been to Lou's Grill. After our last visit there I can understand why. Since the new covid restrictions imposed banning dining inside at restaurants Lou's Grill is one of the few restaurants in our area with a heated outdoor patio. They do not take reservations. When you arrive you give your name to the hostess and she will send you a text when your table is ready. They have both a smoking and non-smoking patio. I thought smoking was not allowed at restaurants anymore but Lou's Grill does have a smoking patio. We were assigned a non-smoking table as requested on the upstairs patio after a 15 minute wait. There is a 2 hour time limit right now. The service was decent. It wasn't great but the wait staff was kept pretty busy. We shared an order of chicken wings with sweet chili Thai sauce and they were very good. For entrees my husband had a 1/2 rack of spare ribs and I had a 6 oz. steak. Both of our entrees were tasteless and totally lacking in flavour. My steak was also very tough. It was very disappointing. We felt that for the quality of the food it was overpriced. I doubt that we would go back to Lou's. We do enjoy dining out but until we're able to dine inside at restaurants we're probably better off to do takeout until the restrictions are lifted. read more

Was here for a birthday dinner with friends. I was pretty disappointed with a few things. First of all, I joined the group about 5 minutes after the rest of the party. No drink was offered for at least 10 minutes. We actually had to flag the waitress down to order my drink. The waitress did not offer to take any appetizer orders while we were waiting for everyone to arrive. Once again, we had to flag her down to order our dinners as well as drinks for the newcomers. It was over 45 minutes until we ordered our dinner. I had looked at the menu beforehand but was disappointed to hear that my steak could not be cooked the way I wanted, even though the website does say. I ordered a green salad to start and was served a bowl of lettuce...just lettuce. My steak was cooked well but not seasoned at all and not rested correctly. The spot we were sitting at was near the door to the outdoor seating. The door was constantly opening so we were very cold. The restaurant was very busy, so it was loud and the ambient music, which actually increased in volume, making it almost impossible to hear the person across the table. Our meals came quickly, but the serving staff had no idea who had ordered what (seat numbers needed!!!) . The guy beside me had his diet coke refilled twice without asking, and before he was finished the last one, I had to ask for my refill after it had been empty for a while. All in all, my experience tonight did not make we want to return. read more

I've always really enjoyed the food here. it's a nice place to go and have some good food. the music is often on the loud side... but if you don't mind that... it's fantastic read more

Found this little gem of a bar while I was coming back with some friends out in hope today from a hike. We chose this place because there was so many people who have posted reviews and check in and sign the food here is excellent and pricing is really good. Actually if you are able to time is the happy hour is a really good deal because appetizers are 30% off which is amazing. What I also like about this location is the car inside. It is a little dark inside but it's certainly sets the ambience very nicely. The chairs are deep and comfortable and all around the location you see various Group of Seven replica paintings on the walls which I thought was a very nice touch. The only downside have there is one for this location is that parking can be really limited because of how good the food is. Obviously this is a popular place for the locals and it's not that far off the from the Trans Canada Highway either. read more

Had a weekend lunch here recently, service was quick and attentive albeit a little disorganized. The hostess seated us (baby included!) right next to the bar, a very busy area which is fine for my family (baby is an angel, I swear) but probably not the best idea in a general sense. Besides it being loud, one of the servers dropped an entire jug of mix drink behind me...scared the shit out of me and the splatter got my left rear side torso and leg. No apologies offered, even though they could see my reaction. I'm a happy go lucky guy and understand accidents happen, but you should at least show some concern when it directly affects the customer. As mentioned earlier, our server (not the drink dropper) was great, she asked about the baby and answered our menu questions, plus was quick to fill up coffee and water. The food was good but not great, the Crispy Applewood Smoked Chicken Sandwich was WAY better than the Prime Rib Beef Dip. The Au Jus that accompanied the Beef Dip was great, but the meat was chopped into almost ground...it made me think it might not have been AAA Shaved Prime Rib as was advertised. Luckily, my wife took pity on me and we split the handhelds, hence why I can attest to the Chicken Sandwich being awesome. French Fries and Salad sides were prefect, even had a side of gravy that was tasty AF. I'd go back for sure, but it's not like I'm beating down the door to eat here again. read more

The service here is great! Food not as great. TVs everywhere, pretty noisy atmosphere.

A surprising find! At first I thought the price was a bit steep for the location however the food was quite good and the portions were huge. The staff were nice and on the ball. Just note that the patio is smoke-friendly so if the smell bothers you, opt to sit inside instead. If we were in the neighbourhood again and needed a place to stop for a bite, we'll for sure be back! read more

It has a stellar atmosphere eh The patio in the evening has a fun yet reserved ambiance. At 4C outside, the patio was very warm even with open wall. Food was cooked right.steak sizes were as menu claimed. Service was prompt and very friendly. We will definitely return for date nite and or in a group capacity eh Definitely since the old Lou's burnt down, this place has raised the bar eh Oh a point of note eh They know what a "Chicago" done steak means! read more

We tried Lou's Grill for the first time just because The Keg was closed at the time we were in town. Food was really good. We has scallops and bacon that comes with garlic bread and NY Stake to share. Scallops were smaller then I expected but very delicious! NY was good and it came with lots of vegetables, which I liked. Service needs improved for sure. Most servers are young girls so they need to learn a lot. We had no water until we asked for it. Our server was not very attentive and seemed a little agitated with our order. If I had a choice between Lou's and The Keg, I would choose The Keg read more

One of our favourites ! The wife and I enjoy their steak sandwich, nachos and atmosphere.

The food is good but it's a noisy atmosphere and it can be quite smoky. Female wait staff are apparently urged to dress kind of skanky which detracts from making it feel classy read more

No gluten free selections. Called and they told us that it was not safe for Celiacs. Not good for us.

This was a place we always wanted to try since we live in West Vancouver and had an appointment for our RV we used the courtesy car and headed out, we had read the reviews and it did not disappoint ! My burger was absolutely the BEST one I have ever had! Home style on a brioche bun served with yummy fries a very filling lunch! great service , out door patio, lots of parking in a very friendly stylish restaurant, can't wait to return to try something else on their extensive menu! read more

Place looks really nice since the refurbishment after the fire, I absolutely love the decor. We went in on a super busy cold Wednesday night. In spite of it being busy for a Wednesday night, the service was prompt and the food came out really quickly. My daughter and I shared a Cajun salmon burger with Caesar salad and an order of their calamari. We're both pescatarian and had to special-order the Caesar salad without bacon bits. It's common to have problems when you special order things, but there was no problems and I really did enjoy the Caesar salad with Crispy Capers on Top. This salad dressing had some horseradish in it which I thought was quite delicious... Risky changing the recipe of a ubiquitous dish like Caesar salad, but it did pay off for them. The Cajun salmon burger was made with sockeye salmon which is always wild, and was absolutely delicious with two big pieces of avocado and an excellent version of chutney. One can never go wrong with a brioche bun. I like the fact that they didn't charge extra for a caesar salad. The two dishes came to a mere $33 which is quite a bargain for the amount of food that we were served as the portions were quite large. I wouldn't hesitate to go back. Having reflected upon some of the other reviews, I think that they must have sorted their reopening issues out. read more

Pleasantly surprised with Lou's on a Sunday with some great specials. 3.75 local pints including Parallel 49 and Phillips which is nice. Note that the pints aren't actually pints but are more like sleeves that aren't quite filled all the way. Would be sort of miffed at full price but no problem at 3.75 Possibly the best lobster mac and cheese I've ever had. Sounds crazy, but you really have to try it. It's an enormous portion considering it's just a side dish. The blue cheese burger was near perfect with excellent proportions and good ingredients. The Philly cheese was massive and had great toppings. Loved the roast potatoes side Prices are very reasonable and service is prompt. The Sunday specials were great. Minus one star for allowing smoking on the patio and underfilling a sleeve (and calling it a pint. We are in Canada, people! A pint is 500ml!) read more

Lou's Grill - Blue cheese burger - Bars Near Me - Abbotsford, British Columbia

Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Best burger in recent memory? Yes. On the "dining out" scale, it's probably a 4. It's not like we were at Hawksworth or Per Se. But for a pub/casual/comfort food spot? It's easily a five star experience. The service was nothing short of outstanding (we actually started joking about how frequently our server checked on us and we were bewildered at how fast the kitchen pumped out food in this busy spot), and the environment was clean and well-styled -- even if it was a little loud. But here's the thing... The food was the biggest surprise. The menu is varied and not just your standard fare, but the quality of ingredients are what made it stand out to me. We ordered the blue cheese caesar to start and the Swiss Royale Burger. The blue cheese caesar was tasty, topped with fresh crumbled blue cheese, lettuce was crisp, and I'm pretty sure the dressing didn't come out of a bottle (bottle dressing usually don't sport the anchovy flavour). We ordered a full size but easily could have shared a half. The burger was massive and delicious. It arrived on a 6-8" piece of fresh ciabatta, the 1/2 lb patty was shaped properly to fit and grilled impressively. Beautifully seasoned, topped with high quality ingredients and paired with some pretty solid fries. It was too much food for two to share. The prices are a little higher than one would expect for pub food at first, but the quality of ingredients and creative flair more than makes up for it in my book. The only problem with this place is that it's a solid 40 minutes from home. read more
