I am a fan of Bar Louie especially the one on Semoran which I visit frequent and the waiters already know me, my family and friends. At that place I have never had a problem. I went to this Bar Louie On Saturday and it was horrible. Upon arrival no tables were clean, my husband had to clean a table for our group. After we sat the waiter told us food waiting time was 25 to 35 minutes and we said it was ok. Our food did not come out until over an hour later. The orders were wrong and we were missing food. Not once did out waiter ask us if our food was good nor ever gave us silver ware. Other parties that came before us ate and left and were were still waiting for our food. It got to the point I got so upset I called for the manager because that type of service was unacceptable. Manager was understand and worked with us but I won't recommend this Bar Louie at all.

Arrived there about an hour before closing. The first thing the waitress told was that they are closing soon. Also, she was very impatient and gave a lot of.attitude. Gave us several hints that we have a few mins to stay although there are about 40 other people still sitting at different tables and drinking. I understand it's busy Saturday but would be happy to go to different place if she would have just simply said to somewhere coz they are closing. What a waitress!!

My first time at Bar Louie so I kept it simple and tried the OG Cheese burger with loaded french fries.

No wait time and good service. Food was good and drinks were excellent. I would give 5 stars but they closed a little too early for me.

Very friendly bar. Great service, laid back relaxed envrionment. A little pricey, but everything I have had is amazing. Multiple T.Vs and staff are great with channel requests, t.vs can be seen from multiple tables. Music is playing but, not overwhelming or loud enough to ruin a conversation. Highly recommend this establishment. I would like to add that this has been the go to bar for me on my trip. Happy hour prices are fantastic, I learned and experienced $5 burger day on Tuesdays, and the burgers are amazing!

When everyone else had a 50 min wait for dinner they were wide open and the food was good. Staff were funny and attentive. Just do it!

A little confusing when we walked in. No one at the door and it took us a little while to understand that it was seat yourself. A waiter cleared a table for us and he was awesome! He was training a new waitress and she was doing very well for her first day. Food was excellent! You have to try the doughnuts for dessert. Served with a maple bourbon dipping sauce and chocolate sauce. The bourbon sauce is the best! We will definitely be going back! Best place we have eaten at so far this vacation. The atmosphere is great! Food was excellent!
I must say this spot is alot different than the spot back in the day International Plaza Tampa. They recieved 3 stars due to the fabulous and authentic customer service provided to us by the waitress Gabby. She smiled and checked back in with us several times throughout our visit. The young lady assisting Gabby slammed our food down on the table as if she were angered because she had to come from behind the bar. I did not get her name but she was an Asian young lady mostly working behind the bar. The food was not good even though it looked as if it were going to be fantastic. It was cold and appetizer came out with the food. If it were not for Gabby being who she is this review would've earned Bar Louie I-Drive a 1 star.

Big place with lots of overhead doors open to the outside. Lots of big tables but not many for a couple. We sat at the bar and had good service. Price was good and menu was big. Food was decent and I liked the atmosphere.

Menu was limited from spring break ppl the day before but even the limited menu had great choices. I ordered the "Gastroburger" with loaded tots. Burger was fantastic (technically shaved steak) and the garlic aioli on it was so good. Tots were really good as well. Jalapenos on them had no heat at all, which was fine to me, but may be a letdown if you were expecting heat. Staff was awesome and my moscow mule was on point.

I wish I could leave negative number of stars, this restaurant was filthy. There was no social distancing coming into the restaurant. There were empty tables covered with dirty dishes and garbage. I'm grateful we only had 2 appetizer, the ladies restroom was in desperate need of a few plumbers as the toilets were clogged. The rubbish can was overflowing with trash, the paper towel dispensers were broken. There was a roll of towels on the WET counter. The soap dispensers also were broken. This place was filthy! My question to management is this, how filthy and unsanitary is your kitchen if you allow the public areas to be filthy?
