Editorial Review for Louie's 106 – by Kevin Newsum
In Short
Well-heeled dot-commers rub elbows with politicos among Old World-style decor. Arrive early for prime seating, as this restaurant fills up for both lunch and dinner. Tapas are a specialty, with more than 20 varieties available. The rainbow trout amandine is bathed in lemon butter, with tender sides of sauteed vegetables and garlic potatoes. Penne pasta with sauteed chicken breast slices comes in a whole-grain mustard cream sauce and a side of julienned vegetables.

My fiance and I went here on a Sat. night on the recommendation of the hotel that we were staying at. We were seated right away but it took our waitress about 5 minutes to greet us. After she finally showed up she must have taken another 5-7 mins to come back with our drinks. As usual my fiance hadn't made up her mind on what to get on the menu which turned out being a 15 min smoke break for our waitress. I exaggerate on the smoke break part but not at all the time that it took for her to get back to us to take our order. The food however made up for the lackluster service. For the appetizer we had the tuna tartar which was exceptional. For our entrees I had the flounder special which was heavenly while my fiance had the halibut which was also good, but not nearly as good as the flounder. I would go back, but perhaps next time I'll get it to take back to our room.

A few months ago my husband and I decided to give this restaurant a try. We were very pleased that we chose to do so, our experience was perfect in every respect. Our waitress was gracious and attentive, we went with her suggestion and tried the sea bass and the roasted duck. Their wine list is extensive with reasonable prices. The only complaint we had was that the music was a little loud, but as soon as we mentioned this to our server it was taken care of as well. We returned a few weeks later with some friends and again everything was fantastic. We highly recommend this restaurant to friends and will definitely be back.
