I was in town visiting family and wanted to try a new place for dinner. The menu here sounded good, so we gave it a try. It was a warm evening and we got to enjoy the patio without any wait. We ordered various cocktails and apps to start including the vegetable flatbread and trio of chips & dips. The flatbread was the best app of the night - the toppings to bread ratio was just right and the vegetables seemed fresh. The queso and guac (in the dip trio) were both fine - nothing wrong with them, but nothing memorable. The salsa/pico was very bland and boring. For the main course we ordered the mac & cheese and the chicken tacos. The mac & cheese was pretty basic and it was very bright fake cheese orange, which wasn't the most appealing. The tacos were decent and the accompanying rice and beans were delicious. The patio was great for people watching and our server was friendly and helpful all evening.

Visited with a friend after a long day of shopping. Great martinis and food!

We split the queso dip and pretzels. Both are a must!

The bar tender's were very helpful and offered their opinions on drinks and food. One of the bartenders was somkin' hot..which added to the experience

Very clean and modern feel to the inside. Staff is extremely friendly and they are encouraged to "mingle" and "chat" with the patrons..such a unique concept!

Much smaller than the other Bar Louie's I've visited.

Only downside is it's connected to the mall..if feels like you inside of a mall. The patio area overlooks the parking lot and the sun beams down on you..Overpriced $12 Bloody Mary..didn't taster very good, either.

TV's inside and out..One of the coolest and longest bars in Chattanooga. Probably seats 40 people.

Could not get any service.we were seated and then no one ever came to greet us or serve us. We sat there about 15 min. While servers and other employees walked by and did not even acknowledge we were there. We eventually just walked out.

Thought we'd try out Bar Louie tonight. Â We walked by it the other day and it sorta reminded us of the Tavern at Phipps in Atlanta, appearance wise. Â (Sophisticated-looking place attached to a mall, although not a mall the stature of Phipps Plaza.) Â

Anyhow, the place is no doubt very nice with a lot of TVs. Â Would be a nice place to enjoy a football game this Fall, but we won't be back. Â

We got the "Trio" sampler of salsa, guacamole and cheese dip. Â Chips were room temp and a bit stale. Â Cheese dip was room temp and not that good. Â Guac was good, as was salsa. Â $7. Â

Then we split one of their "flatbread" offerings, the buffalo chicken flatbread. Â It was just very average for $11. Â Not that hot. Â Place was empty. Â

We also got a 20 oz. beer each. Â Domestic (Bud Light). Â $4.50 each. Â

Total charges before taxes were $27. Â Here's the kicker. Â We were charged two taxes. Â One tax was the 9.25% state tax on the entire bill. Â Then we were charged another "tax" of $1.35. Â We called and asked about this after we got home. Â He said the state of Tennessee charges around 25% tax on alcoholic beverages and that most restaurants/bars choose to include this tax in their price of beer. Â So if you buy a beer for $4 at most places, the restaurant will pocket only $3 and will pay the state the 25% tax out of their own profit. Â Bar Louie chooses to add this 25% to the cost of the beer. Â So when you add it up, our 20 oz. domestic beers totaled about $5. 70 each!

No thanks! Â They are dead in the water already with those prices. Â You can walk over to Big River and get much better beer and food for substantially less.
