I stumbled across this restaurant when coming down for a FB marketplace pickup in the area. What a great find!!! And very affordable compared to the prices online. They must be the dinner prices. Our server Isys was really nice and very accommodating. I was thrilled to substitute the French fries for a side salad at no extra charge. Thank you. After reading many reviews I knew I wanted to try the Caramel burger and yes I can see why it won awards in the Hamburg contest. It's delicious. I don't usually eat buns but this one was really good and yes they toast the bun. My husband liked the Irish Burger and the French fries are good. You get a lot of them. We live 45 minutes away but may just have to make a road trip every once in awhile. FYI I did really good and only ate half of my burger and it was delicious the next day too.

I'm writing my review as I'm still sitting here eating. Their california cheese steak is amazing, best cheese steak I've had since moving to PA 6 years ago. Omg the juices and flavors in the smash burger taco! You must try! Their fresh squeezed mimosas are a icing on the cake for me! I'm bringing my whole family over here. Such a cool environment.

Great restaurant!! We stopped on a Thursday afternoon. The caramel burger is out of this world good, fries were hot and service was great. My husband also enjoyed his cheeseburger. Our waitress was the best, thank you Isys for being so thoughtful on our anniversary!! Definitely give this restaurant a try, i doubt you'll be disappointed.

I visited Louie’s at taste of Hamburg last weekend and let me tell you, I was pleasantly surprised. We were eating on the street so I didn’t have time to get any good pics of the burger trio. I’ve been wanting to try Louie’s and this was a great way to give them a chance. The employees were enthusiastic and great with explaining the burgers. I definitely can’t wait to stop in to their main location for a whole burger.

It was our first time and the food was delicious! I had the Caramel burger... it was the best burger I’ve ever had! My husband had the steakhouse burger and he said it was very good as well. We also enjoyed the fried pickles! I think we found our new favorite place! I keep telling my husband I am craving that burger and can’t wait to go back

I came across a Facebook ad for Louie's. So because it was close by I invited a couple friends to lunch because I was curious. They weren't kidding about their award winning burgers. I had the bacon bacon burger, while my friend had the gritty sandwich and his son had the cheese burger. My burger was delicious I added avocado. One small complaint (nit pick) the buns were soft so the structural integrity of the burger didn't last long. I recommend asking for a toasted bun if it's an option. The buns seemed fresh though so that is a plus. Fries were fresh and hot. Very good. We went at the height of the lunch rush but the staff was very attentive and helpful. They brew their own sodas too. I will definitely be back. (Photo was taken halfway through the meal I apologize. Trying to show a cross section)

This was our second experience ordering from Louie’s and my goodness - it did not disappoint .. The burgers (smokehouse and steakhouse) and fries were outstanding!! We are looking forward to trying the rest of your menu Edit: I just wanted to say the first time was just as fabulous!

We love the food that we've had at Louie's. The caramel burger and the teriyaki wings are both very good. The fries are delicious as well. They also have very good handmade sodas. The orange cream is especially good. Our waiters have been friendly and efficient. The decor is just basic, but the view of the golf course from the large windows is nice to look at while eating. Overall, we really like Louie's, and we've already been back two more times since our first visit.
