Louise's is a name that Angelinos know. Casual Atmospheres, Phenomenal Service and of course, the best Pastas, Pizzas, Salads and Entrees in the city. Include our famous hot-from the oven foccacia bread and you know we're talking about Louise's.

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.

Key Points

  • Take Out & Delivery
  • Full Service Catering
  • Nine Los Angeles Locations

Great Pizza, Pasta & Salads!

by Michelle C. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 12,376

I have loved this restaurant since I was a kid. Every time I visit I have to get their pizza and salad at least once. And their pasta is great too. It's a nice place for lunch - the employees are always friendly and it has a nice atmosphere. They do offer delivery which is good when I don't want to deal with looking for parking.

Italian

by Matthew B. | insider_guru Insider Guru | Rank: 1,661

Louises Trattoria is definitely California Italian. The bread and olive oil with balsamic vinegar is awesome. You can eat just that but the salads and the main dishes are all really good.

Italian Food

by Elizabeth G. | insider_guru Insider Guru | Rank: 145

Louise's has good Italian food. Definitely American Italian and all of the ingredients are fresh. I love the barbecue chicken chopped salad. It is always good and I have never gone wrong with it. I have recommended it to others who love it too.

Yum

by Evand101

On my last visit to the Louise's, the food was excellent as per usual. I ordered the chicken parmigiana, which was outstanding and served in a large generous portion. Also, in case you're never heard, the bread is absolutely fantastic as well!
