   I have been to Lou Vino several times, but this is the first time that I have had brunch there. Our server was Trenton, and he was amazing. I would highly recommend asking for him. There are many things that I like at Lou Vino. I typically choose one of the wine flights, the loaded potato bites, the fried chicken taco, The food is always delicious. For brunch we ordered the mimosa flight, the spicy chicken sandwich, the eggs benedict, the brie french toast and the blt croissant and the doughnuts. Things to know; the brie french toast is best with the syrup provided and its not too sweet. The BLT is with a fried green tomato, yum. I prefer the chocolate cookie dough beignets on the regular menu vs the doughnuts. The donughts are more of a biscuit batter. The salad with the eggs benedict is delicious. Honest I haven't had anything I didn't like. I hope you enjoy it as well!

   Some highs but also some things to work on. The good: our drinks (Nespresso Martiniis) were amazing, shrimp and scallop risotto and vegetable sandwich were also very good. Steak and frites came out cold and hand to be sent back. Service overall was cordial but much slower than expected, and the pacing between the courses was just really off. We would return for drinks after a meal elsewhere.

   We had an exceptional dining experience last night at LouVino! Our server was well informed about wine options and guided us in choosing something we loved. The GM checked on us several times and was personable and professional. We will be back!

   This is one of me and my fiancés favorite restaurants! The food is always delicious and we always clear our plates! We just tried their brunch for the first time and it was amazing, which wasn’t a surprise given how happy we are every time we’ve been there for dinner. Our servers are always amazing too, especially Trenton, so kind and great at making us feel welcomed and taken care of! Highly recommend

   My sister and I spent a morning at this delightful restaurant for our birthdays. We were greeted with a smile and the service throughout was attentive and friendly. They treated us with donuts on the house and lit birthday candles. I had smoked salmon Benedict with a mixed green salad on the side, and my sis had pancake tacos. Both were delicious. The restaurant is also in a really cool space in an older building with exposed brick. We will definitely be back

   We had a great time at Louvino and I would 109% recommend it. Our food was amazing and single thing we tried was delicious. What stood out the most was our fantastic server. He was incredibly attentive, made great recommendations, and even gave us free samples of a desert at the end. Can’t wait to go back.

   Appetizers never arrived, server said the kitchen messed up. The wine flight’s selection was not very good and I ended up drinking only 1 of 3 shot. Service was slow and rude. Server cleared the wine glass that I was holding with my finger still. Place is SO LOUD, specially when there are large groups seating next to smaller tables. The salmon was delicious, but everything else was just ok.
