In Short
This SoCal mini-chain uses blond-wood tables, cheery primary-colored details and piped-in hits from Sinatra to Armstrong to bring new meaning to the phrase "happy meal." Families and low-key diners are endlessly plied with herb-encrusted focaccia and olive oil. Wood-fired pizzas are topped with California-style ingredients (bean sprouts, Asiago cheese). Other Americanized Italian fare includes lunchtime favorites like finely chopped salads and dinner entrees such as grilled salmon with artichoke relish and a slate of seasonal pasta dishes.

Italian food

by Elizabeth G. | insider_guru Insider Guru | Rank: 144

Louise's is California Italian cuisine. They have some of the best pizza. I have really enjoyed their salads and the soup is really delicious. The service is always good and the prices are reasonable.

Best Italian in Studio City

by Krisdee

My favorite waiter, Rob, is always so friendly, courteous, and attentive each and every time I come here. The other staff is great of course as well. The food is excellent here as well - I usually get some takeout on my way out the door for the next day! I highly recommend Louise's - best Italian in Studio City.

Wonderful Service

by Joec

What wonderful service this place has! I tried the 'soup from scratch' and is was absolutely fantastic. This place is a great deal too - the portions are large and there's plenty to share or take home for later. I came for the first time recently, and I will definitely be back for more!

recommend it

by tonimay

Louise's is the best Italian restaurant in Los Angeles! We used to go the one in Westlake Village before it closed and have since stopped and each and every one we can find in this town. The Studio City location is great and not too far from our house in Agoura. We definitely recommend it, we eat there about once or twice a week.

Pros: best location of all louises

great waitress and food

by Sharonfraq

I'm from out of town and came to Louise's in Studio City as per a recommendation from a friend. I arrived early and though my friend had not yet arrived, I was received graciously and not rushed by my server. I hadn't eaten most of the day and I was starving, so I ordered the grilled salmon w/ cream sauce with vegetables and garlic mashed potatoes. The dish was great and my waitress was really wonderful. I'd definitely visit Louise's next time I'm in town.

Average

by glenda55

The food was not as good as i had hoped it would be, but the waiters were very nice and helpful. It took a long time for us to be seated but besides that the place was alright.

Great Food!

by supermodeldior

I love this restaurant. They are very kid friendly and even have contests kids can enter while waiting for their kids meals. Louise's has the best pizzas- hands down! The pastas are good, as well, but the pizza is superb and you can tell its super fresh. Its a nice place to go to relax for lunch time, or after school as me and my friends do. The waiters are pretty good, except for the guy I usually end up stuck with. The food is great for the value, and I definetly recommend this place.

Pros: superb pizza, inexpensive, good parking

Terrific Food

by Dadskier

Love this place. Always great food and servers are so nice and pleasant. This place has only gotten better over the years. Love the pasta the Pizza is just like back home. It is great to sit out on the patio in the evening while the sun is setting.

Terrace is fun

by maxbbr

We like to come here and sit on the patio overlooking the palm trees. Variety of food, but inconsistency in preparation. I used to get the vegetarian pizza with their dinner salad (great dressing) - but last time the pizza was just not up to par. Spaghetti sauce not the greatest - rather bland. Raviolis were good - sometimes appearance of them changes. Each time we went the service was very good, very attentive. I'd recommend it if you can eat outside on the terrace - much more fun.

Pros: atmosphere

Cons: inconsistency

A Basic Italian

by Oscar

Not the most exciting Italian food in the world, but you really can't go wrong here. Everything is prepared well, and there's a large enough selection that you will definitely find something you like on the menu. Papardelle with Italian sausage is very good, as is the penne with pesto and asparagus. The outdoor patio is a much nicer place to eat than the very boring inside dining room, but you may have a wait for table if you want to sit outside. Service is spotty.

Pros: Good Food, Nice Patio

Cons: Poor Service
