Louis' Lunch is the place to go if you're a burger lover like myself. It is way better than an average burger you can find anywhere. I look forward to my next visit here.

You can not go to New Haven and not go eat at Louis' Lunch. It is tasty and great prices and a such a unique fun atmosphere, it does not get much better than that.

I love the look and feel of Louis' Lunch, I think it is really cool inside, the ovens on the counter tops, and the cozy feel to it really makes a difference. Not only is the place itself amazing, but the food is to die for.

Classic-style food at Louis' Lunch. You won't get anything like this unless you go to Louis' Lunch. Hand ground select beef.

The hamburgers are "okay", very basic beef patties with no seasoning. Choices are cheeseburger or hamburger plain, cheeseburger or hamburger w/ tomato, cheeseburger or hamburger w/onions, cheeseburger or hamburger w/ tomato & onion, they are all served on toasted white bread and no condiments are available. There is a selection of potato chips to purchase as sides and numerous beverage options. It's definitely the restaurant itself and the fact that the same propane burners are in sill use today since it's opening in 1895 that draws the patrons. The place is tiny and has seating for approximately 22 people.
