Bad service but good food. Came a second time but had to leave before being seating because no one would acknowledge our existence. Terrible service. Bar tender doesn't great you, no one will seat you.

When Safari Club International held their conventions in Reno, Louie's was a must-go place for dinner. The quality and quantity of the food was superb and the atmosphere was wonderful. Family style seating is great. You meet some of the most interesting people as you pass big bowls of soup, salad, some sort of meaty beans before you ever get to the entree you ordered. It irks me no end that that SCI has decided to hold its conventions in other cities. Louie's of Reno is THE BEST.

What fun! Picon punch was a great starter at the bar. Nice patrons and servers. We split a very tender ribeye steak and still couldn't eat it all. We love Basque meals and drove 550 miles from SW Utah. It's that good!

My children treated me to my 67th birthday dinner at one of my All Time Favorite Restaurants! I love this food Mecca so much! The potato kale soup was perfection. The salad was fresh and fun. Love the table wine they serve every table. The oxtails are, without doubt, the very best I have ever tasted! But for me, the unquestionable star of the night was their wine and mushroom sweetbreads; simply glorious! They are the closest I have ever tasted to how my Grandmother made them and they transported me to culinary paradise!! The staff is wonderful and don’t miss a trick and the atmosphere is cozy and warm. The steaks my children ordered (rib eye and filet) were superb and cooked to perfection. What a splendid experience!

Food was fantastic and service was fast and friendly. We went less traditional and ordered salmon which was delightful and filling. Highly recommend getting a side of garlic to put on fries, bread, steak, etc. The cheesecake is worth the money!

Was there for a company dinner and first time back in years, and it is still as delicious as ever. I went with the beef stew for my entree, but the top item was the cheesecake. It came with a lemon sauce at the based that pair perfectly. Keep in mind, I am not the biggest fan of cheesecake.

Everyone has left great reviews, so here are your tips: 1) If you want oxtail, sweetbreads, leg of lamb - the special entrees - make your reservation on the EARLY side. They were out of 4 entrees by 8pm on a Wed night. 2) This is a crowded establishment and NOISEY. Do not expect to have a private conversation. 3) Sitting next to strangers is fun! We shared butter. 4) Your dinner price (with or without entree) includes EVERYTHING: bread, salad, soup, first course (we had the most amazing braised chicken), beans, dessert PLUS one glass of wine. 5) We came in as 2 adults, 2 teens and we were given a carafe of wine (thank you!) And I didnt have to specify that I would like the kids' wine *small#normal wine glasses 6) We ordered the bone in lamb chops and the boneless rib eye as the two entrees to share and we totally took leftovers with us. We were also served almost an entire loaf of bread just for the 4 of us! 7) Amazing experiemce we will be back! I suggest going with at least 4 people. The meat was perfectly cooked - medium rare came out medium rare and the lamb!!!! Excellent quality lamb with no farmhouse taste. 8) try the Picon Punch - its an appertif but works as a digestif as well ;)

Louis Basque Corner has been a staple of Reno cuisine for my entire lifetime. They easily handled our holiday party group of 12 with great food and service. The steak and chicken were standouts but the cheesecake was my favorite. So much fun eating family style!
For the price of the large party, everything should be precise when sending out entrees, we were a couple in a large party who didn't receive our steaks. Everyone else got theirs, we just had the sides all night. What a shame for a restaurant that serves nicely family style to large groups.

Wife and I ordered the no entree dinner for two, which came with bread, soup, salad, braised chicken, fries, dessert, and house red wine. The soup and the chicken were tasty but the rest of the items were average.
The service was good and the family style dining was great for meeting and conversing with the other diners at the same table. We lucked out with some nice and interesting people.
