The reviews are great for this restaurant so our experience may be unusual. The waiter was a bit impatient. The food was so-so. It's a hopping place and the interior decor is great. We will likely try it again.

Made a reservation months ago for 6 and they tried to sit us on the bar area at a high top. They said I should have requested the dining room. This is an ocean front property. They should have asked me if the bar was ok before they tried to put us there. The bar is loud and not comfortable. If you make a reservation on line it should be for a table in dining, they should have this as an option on their reservations for bar top only. Why is this my fault?

valentine's/bday dinner. we chose the 3 course set menu. The appetizer of shrimp cocktail was fresh and delicious as was the lobster ravioli. However the main course of chilean sea bass was average. We probably should have done ala carte. The ambience and service were very good! As was the hostess and greeting. I would go back.

Valentine's Day dinner at Louie's by the Bay in Newport Beach was a truly enchanting experience, courtesy of @justsoldagent. From the moment we arrived, the ambiance set a romantic and elegant tone, with a perfect blend of sophistication and warmth that Louie's is renowned for. The Italian-American cuisine was a delightful journey of flavors, with each dish artfully prepared and presented. The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the exquisite steak, cooked to perfection, and the accompanying wine selection that elevated the meal to a new level of indulgence. The attentive and professional service added to the evening's charm, ensuring every moment was memorable. The picturesque views of Newport Beach provided a stunning backdrop, making the evening not just a dinner, but a truly special experience. It's a night that will be cherished and remembered, all thanks to the exceptional quality and atmosphere at Louie's by the Bay.

We were there celebrating my friends birthday yesterday, February 3, 2024. This was a momentous occasion for my friend as he was turning 62. My boyfriend and I are vegans and while we do not expect a lot from a steak/seafood place, I would at least have expected some level of professionalism and courtesy from our waiter. We are not picky people, and we always default to pasta with vegetables when we are at a place that serves primarily seafood/steak. Other waiters at other restaurants are always more than happy to accommodate us and order us vegetables and pasta. It has never been a problem. However this particular waiter gave me attitude and appear to be upset with me as I asked him to put a lot of vegetables over pasta to which he responded “I don’t know it’s up to the chef” and he copped an attitude with me . I was uncomfortable the whole time as he had an attitude while we were there. I have never experienced such lack of professionalism and micro aggression from this person. He has no business working as a waiter if he can’t tolerate or even accommodate vegans!!!!!!! My dinner experience at Louie’s was horrible. I will never come to this place again and will tell all my friends about my nightmare experience .

Charbroiled steak was among the best steak I've ever had if they just added some finishing salt at the end I would have died and went to heaven! Onion rings were amazing! Drinks were fresh and delicious! Value for your money for a great date night or friends night out! Will go back again but I'll bring my own finishing salt ?

Would love to give it 5 stars but the wedge salad was awful. They cut a half wedge of iceberg lettuce that was hard and tough to cut. Ok flavor but too little dressing. Had to hunt to find the blue cheese. Also they never asked if we wanted ground black pepper and no pepper on the table as a back up either. Chicken parm was very good with the cacio de Pepe.

First time at Louie"s but won't be our last. Everything from the greeting at the door until we left was excellent. Gil our waiter was very personable and helpful in making selections. The attention from the the server to the busboy was more than one would expect. The view was outstanding. Can't wait to go back.

Amazing food, beautiful ambience, perfect for a date night or just going out with friends. Waterfront on the bay, with scenic views of the boats and a harbor. I highly recommend the ribeye and asparagus.
