I like my sandwiches moist - there is nothing worse when you unwrap that paper around your deli sandwich and wonder if they forgot to put any sauce, condiments on there, and if your lunch experience is going to be drier than dirt. No worries about that at Lou's. By now, I've tried about 7 or 8 of their sandwiches and every single one has been a wonderfully messy delight (extra napkins!). Somehow, their signature jalapeno sauce seems to go with every thing - haven't found a mis-match between that sauce and any sandwich yet. The bread - where the hell are they getting this bread?!?? It is the best deli sandwich bread I've had since I fell in love with the dutch crunch at Sam's Deli as a teenager (oh, those were the days!!). The folks there are great - just cranking out one delicious meal after the next with quiet precision and skill. Awfully nice to have this place right here in town!

Risky Bizness sandwich was delicious, with fresh and flavorful ingredients on a fantastic bread. Friendly staff, nice small place. Definitely coming back

Was a good sandwich one half had all the meat basically and I called to update my order since I had not mentioned in my order I wanted cheddar instead of the Swiss it came with and got up charged $1.50!

This is my new goto spot for a hot pastrami sandwich or when I'm craving a generous portion of clam chowder. I always get a large hot mocha since they make them soo well.

My favorite is risky business, and it is always good.

Hot pastrami slapped. Haven’t had a sandwich this good in so long. Cant wait to be back and try a few others!

Good, fast sandwiches for a low price. If that's what you want, this place is great. Points off for interior decor being bland, but at this price point I'm not complaining.

Amazing sandwiches, just don't understand why they close so early. Would love to have their sandwiches for dinner too! Please stay open until at least 7
