This review would be 5-stars if it wasn't for the wait staff at Louie's. The food has never disappointed and the martinis are magnificent. The atmosphere is unpretentious and comfortable. However, I am consistently put off by the aggressive behavior of the servers. A group of us from work enjoys the occasional happy hour, and we went to Louie's for the past three. Without fail, the nasty waitresses have sabotaged an otherwise brilliant experience. Even though we are young, attractive professionals in our 30s, by the time we pay the check and leave, we are made to feel like unwanted orphans, heads hanging low as we trudge out of the bar, browbeaten and worn down by our unbelievably bitter bar maids. It has become laughable how unhappy these loveless modern day charwomen seem. No matter how much money we spend, or how nicely we behave, we are not welcome there. We can take a hint. So long Louie's. Call me when your happy hour isn't so mean.
