Our party was “forgotten”. More than 30 min without our beverage order—no one checked on us, we drank all the water on the table, our app order also “ forgotten”. When we finally got up and walked to the bar to see what was wrong, they explained our order got lost, but there was no apology and it still took a while to get our drinks! The food was wonderful once it finally came,but our moods were so soured by then…3 differed people came to make sure our food order was taken after our original server explained there was a “rush” and she couldn’t get help to get to us, but literally not one person apologized—and our bill in no way reflected the problem.

Please know that we’re taking your feedback seriously and will be addressing this with our team to ensure it doesn’t happen again. If you’re open to it, we’d love the opportunity to make things right and welcome you back for a much better experience. Matt Proctor, GM

Food was great and service professional. The charcuterie board is one of the best. We were seated upstairs which was obviously a great place for large parties of people. Very loud up stairs so it was difficult to have a conversation and there are no frills up there. The downstairs is where there is a chic-casual ambiance with booths and the bar area looked nice for a quick drop in. The bathroom was very clean; thank you for that. We will go again and insist on sitting street level. Order the brussel sprouts; incredible and worth the up-charge. Thank you LouVino for providing fantastic food during our night out.
LouVino - Mass AveResponded on April 8, 2025
Thank you so much for the kind and thoughtful review! We're so glad to hear you enjoyed the food—especially the charcuterie board and those brussels sprouts (they’re a favorite here too!). We truly appreciate your feedback about the upstairs seating and ambiance, and we’re happy to accommodate street-level seating on your next visit. It means a lot to us that you noticed the details, from the professional service to the clean restrooms. We look forward to welcoming you back to LouVino for another great night out! Matt Proctor, GM

I took my husband there for his birthday. Our food was very good, especially his sweet corn and goat cheese pasta. My chicken and waffles were very good too, as was our fried chicken tacos app. They did me a favor by stealthily taking an envelope I had for him and presenting it to him on a small plate as a surprise. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Also they gave him a small plate of two fresh chocolate chip beignets with a birthday candle which was a nice touch. Although a bit pricey, we would eat here again.

Our server she was great very sweet and accommodating to us I believe her name was Lauren. Our apps were pretty good truffle fry’s were the best however our fried green tomatoes were hard and disappointing the burgers are great but not a fan of the sweet corn pasta at all but the fried chicken add on to the pasta was a good recommendation I love the aesthetic and ambience of the restaurant itself and the good customer service so we’ll give it another try

Just okay! Service was extremely slow — drinks were never really offered?? Waited so long for the bill at the end of the meal and ended up having to ask for it.
