- JJamesLos Angeles •5 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoLouie’s is a fantastic restaurant, whether for brunch or dinner. The service is always superb and the food, out of this world. They have an outstanding menu and it’s always hard to decide what to eat. So, my wife and I have to keep returning so we can sample everything on the menu. You can’t go wrong with Louie’s no matter the occasion. I haven’t even mentioned the bay view. There are too many good things when you visit the restaurant. You’ll have to make a reservation and experience it for yourself.More infoLouie's by the BayPrice: Expensive• Contemporary Italian• Newport Beach•4.7

Service was friendly and knowledgable. The noise level inside was "energetic" even with a moderate crowd size, so diners should take that into consideration.More infoIl GirasolePrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Costa Mesa•4.5
