Lou's Comfort Food - Restaurant & Bar

4.5 if I could. Overall I enjoyed the visit to Lou’s - Stephan knows good food and drinks! The highlight for me was the Pastrami Reuben which was delicious. The service and cocktails were great too. Make sure you pay a visit! The dish that didn’t quite hit it was the Philly cheese - expected more of a chopped texture and I think there was slightly too much char on it (more like the smash burger). The special LA style fries had a little too much sauce for my liking - maybe better on a flatter serving tray? Will definitely be back.

I was very glad to have finally been able to try this spot - it has been on my list for quite a while. Firstly, the service was great. We were at the table for quite a while a both servers were incredibly friendly and service oriented. I love comfort food generally so the mac and cheese side option is already a big plus to start with. I tried the classic pastrami sandwich as the restaurant goes through a really time intensive process to prepare the meat which makes this dish almost impossible to make at home. The meat was super tender and flavorful. The bread was a bit too dry for my liking but I will definitely be back to try some of the other dishes.

One of the best places I’ve discovered so far in Zürich. The food is absolutely delicious, homemade and done on the moment (bravo au chef 👌🏼) it’s generous, comforting and the atmosphere is great for a date and/or going out with friends/family! Loved it and can’t wait to come back 🫶🏻

Aside from the pungent cigarette smoke that wafted inside through the open windows, our dinner at Lou's was lovely. We enjoyed the delicious food (Buffalo chicken burger, mac and cheese, Philly cheesesteak, and coleslaw) and the charming interior. The music level was just right for easy conversation, and our server was impressively fast and attentive without being intrusive, making for excellent service overall. We will definitely come again (once the windows are closed and the smoke stays outside).

Tried this place for both breakfast and lunch - enjoyed both!! Waffles were amazing and so was the smash burger. As an American - I approve!! Would definitely come here again.
