Lou's, like Emos, or The Ice Cream shack is a Peoria summer-time "institution" and likely the reason Sonic will never take off here.Vegetarian options: Few and far between.Dietary restrictions: Buyer beware.Parking: Parking lot isn't huge, but generally never too crowded you can't find a spot.Kid-friendliness: Almost made for kids.Wheelchair accessibility: It's all on ground level with low tables.

I was never so disappointed in Lou's as I am now for what I got was 45.00. I got 2 chili dog baskets,a tenderloin sandwich and one small root beer. And it was too much for what I had got.

Food was good. Just about what you'd expect from a place like this. Burger was hot, juicy and tasty. Fries were really good. Service was decent taking into consideration that it was pretty busy. I wasn't expecting to have red carpet service like some people seem to expect. I also don't expect them to raze the building or buy adjacent properties to make room for more parking and complain on here about the parking. Atmosphere was great. Very nostalgic and nice to eat outside on a warm summer day.

Finally stopped by for lunch. Service with a smile. All the girls were friendly with customers, answered questions, provided suggestions. Super busy but got our order rather quickly. I highly recommend a frosty cold rootbeer. It's delicious. Real beef patty on ?. Fries perfectly cooked. Will be back next season.

Glad we started coming back here again. My daughter absolutely loves it and this is one of her most enjoyable treats. The food is always great, the service is fantastic. If you only come here for one thing definitely make sure it's a root beer float, it's the best thing on the menu. The cheeseburgers, the fries, the tenderloins, you name it everything is great. Wish it was open longer then just a summer season

This place is awesome, the atmosphere is chill and the foods good. Although I think it might be a bit overpriced...Vegetarian options: Boca Burger.Kid-friendliness: I mean there were a bunch of kids when I went there so I'm just gonna assume it's kid friendly. Staff is very friendly as well!

Prices are too high for the amount of food you get. I still love Lou's, but instead of once a week, it's gonna become once a month, maybe.?
