Charmant
La perle du quartier
Belle terrasse

Intimate and exclusive due to it's limited seating, Louie’s California Bistro has long been touted as one of Santa Barbara's favorite local secrets. Unconcerned with flashy food trends, the focus at Louie's has always been to take local ingredients and make them shine, often through classic style cooking and recipes. Add in Central Coast wines and a table on the historic wrap around veranda and you have the makings for a truly enjoyable dining experience. Louie's resides within a local landmark: The Upham Hotel. The Upham, built in 1871, is California's longest continuously operating hotel and is one of Santa Barbara's oldest buildings, having survived the earthquake of 1925.

Very disappointed! My party of 9 showed up to a closed restaurant! A note on the door said closed and under new management…… You should not be taking reservations on Open Table. I even called the day of the reservation and they had a message saying they would be open at 5pm just to reconfirm our reservation. We have had many enjoyable dinners here and I am extremely disappointed.

We were only ones there, my pizza tasted like a frozen pizza, they noted online they had certain entrees they didn't have and they charged us for splitting entrees when each person had their own and didn't remove the charge when asked

Having been before and had a very positive experience this time was disappointing. The chicken piccata wasn’t really a chicken piccata and was so/so. The cioppino was mediocre.

Joli établissement un peu en retrait des quartiers touristiques. Galerie autour du restaurant où il est possible de manger à l’extérieur. Carte resserrée mais intéressante et bons conseils du serveur.

I can’t tell you how disappointed we are with our experience last night. We sat at our table for more than 30 minutes without being acknowledged by our server. The host and hostess were wonderful and seated us promptly. They brought bread and water and then absolutely nothing. We waited about 20 minutes trying to be patient and then asked the hostess if she could let our waitress know we were ready to order. Still nothing. We ended up walking out after sitting there ignored for 35 minutes. Can’t rate the food because we didn’t even get to try it. Probably won’t go back

Louie's Bistro is open again and our experience there was just wonderful. The new owner was extremely gracious as we had a gift card for the restaurant we had received while the restaurant was under the previous ownership. Although not obligated to honor the gift card, they kindly offered us a 25% discount on our meal. The food and service were stellar, we couldn't have been happier! Louis his back, and they are better than ever.

We were there on an evening where they had more customers than they could deal with due to their process of ramping up staff after being closed for sometime due to a lost liquor license, now restored. In spite of this, they were very gracious, and the food was outstanding. Fortunately, our patience paid off.

the ambience and attitude are superlative. Food quality is excellent. Salads are masterful. Appetizers and dishes are quality ingredients but need some help with flavor and sometimes texture. Great focused wine list. Something for everyone. Diverse choices of quality mid priced labels across a number of types of wine. And even a good Malbec. Not great not bad. Nicely designed dishes and quality ingredients. They just need a little More time to perfect things. In fairness, they were understaffed and very busy that evening and we were on a deadline. The salads are excellent. Quality ingredients, fresh, beautifully ensembled, and delicious dressings not overpowering. The crab / scallop cakes are tasteless and tough, but 100% shellfish. The sauce was ok but didn’t carry the dish. A little more seasoning and some Breadcrumbs would Go a long way. The bread basket was stale and pauce. Not a good way to start thinfs given the price point. The shrimp angel Hair came out with linguini, the shrimp were generous, the presentation was nice but the flavor wasn’t there. It was in a kind of bland tomato sauce. The breaded fish filet was fresh, nicely cooked But again not flavorful. The filet was a quality meat but not a good cut. It had fat which needed to have been trimmed, and had a very thin flat side as if someone decided to put the last cut in, rather than slice it up for the stroganoff or the tidbit appetizer. Flavor was so so, the potato cake again needed seasoning and they should decide is it mashed potatoes with a crust or a crunchy potato pancake. I like the owner a lot. There’s a lot of potential here but they need some time to mature and work out the kinks. For someone less demanding than I am, it’s a good bet. It is a beautiful setting, a marvelous owner, and a lot of sincerity. I’ll be keeling an eye on how they mature and hope they succeed.
