Last visit was this past November, however we’ve had so many great experiences at Louie’s from getting together after work for a martini (warning: extensive martini list!) or having an intimate dinner. I’ve also had the pleasure of working with Rob and his team to coordinate several larger events (Staff parties, Christmas parties) and consistently they provide a great dining... More

We arrived late and were welcomed with open arms! The kids were starving and the thin crust pizza was a perfect fit! Myself and my wife enjoyed a shared caesar salad with prawns, and then she had an amazing seafood pasta that made me jealous! ... I enjoyed the very best steak ever! Great place to dine, super friendly staff,... More

A great restaurant that offers many options for a variety of tastes! The service is friendly, fast and very knowledgable. The lounge area is nice for more casual dining or drinks and some delicious appies, while the dining area is more intimate. I have visited Louie's many times and always come home happy with both the experience and the meal.... More

Hailing from the East Coast, my husband and I were super impressed with the quality of seafood in both the pasta and surf & turf. It tasted very fresh and both our meals exceeded expectations. The service was great too. We visit Nelson frequently so I know we'll be back!

Stopped in for a quick dinner, everything is very appealing on their menu. My friend and I had the best fettuccine Alfredo of our lives, totally recommend.

Most restaurants were closed on a busy bank holiday weekend in Nelson and the town was full of people looking for places to eat!!! We finally found that Louies was open. Originally looking for pizza we had the choice of other food rather than steak. The food we had was hot and well presented and tasted great, service was good... More

This was our first time ever dining in Louie's (had been in once for a martini in the past) and i have to say i was blown away by our experience. The food was incredible and the service was flawless, that perfect balance of polished yet casual (not really a big fan of pretentious places). We'll definately be back next... More

We ate at Louie's on a beautiful summer evening. Great food, great atmosphere and great service. The pizzas were spectacular and the service was even better. There is a great wine selection and the patio provides great lake views. We will be back!!
