restaurant is super loud! First of all this restaurant is really big. The voices from every table echos across the halls and yea its just sounds like one big noisy dinning hall. Not such a great place to be meeting clients to discuss business. I mean really I can't even hear myself think.)

-You have to ask for the bread to receive some bread....
(REALLY! You guys are gourmet but I have to ask for bread. OMG! I only knew they had bread because I saw another table had it about half way with my dinner.

-The prices are VERY HIGH for a mediocre meal. 
(When you start paying $14-$35 for each dish and your not either full or happy with the taste, we got a problem.)

Overall, if you do decide to come to Bottega Louie please come for the Macaroons because that would be the only reason I will be going back hereaesar Salad - was overdressed but tasty
Napoli Pizza - was kind of soggy and there were patches where there was no cheese/sauce on the pizza.  I've also had the Margherita Pizza on a separate occasion and it had the same issue.
Carbonara - VERY rich.
Truffle Mashed Potatoes - tasty
Squash Blossoms - my LEAST favorite thing of the meal.  I expected them to be lightly fried but they came out and I couldn't even identify what they were.  The batter that was used on them was so intense that all it tasted like was fried.  Would never order this again.

All in all, the food here was decent.  Maybe it was what I ordered but I wasn't "wow'd" by the food.  Also, the service was lack luster.  Our table ordered two coffees and the guy who brought it to us kind of spilled one of them, causing coffee to get on the coaster, causing one of us to have to have coffee all over his cup (and kind of dripping everywhere).  The waiter offered to get us a napkin but never came back.  I would think that, if a waiter spilled your coffee, he'd get you a new one ... but maybe I was wrong.
ntrast to Ladure's pretty pastel macarons, Bottega Louie's are highly contrasted, brightly colored confections that, disappointingly, fall short in flavor. They probably had to cover the cost of the keepsake boxes that the macarons come in by compromising on quality ingredients.

On the other hand, we thoroughly enjoyed some selections from their dinner menu: artichoke pizza, spring risotto, orecchiette pasta and eggplant parmesan. I love that they have small plates too - just perfect for small eaters. Everything was adequately seasoned, tasted fresh, and felt like some thought went into making the dishes. 

We were seated in between the bar and the patisserie, putting together two small, rounded marble tables to accommodate all the food, the plates, drinking glasses...it was a bit cramped but everything fit anyhow. Lovely service from Gehad and the guy who provided us with some tableside parmesan-grating magic. 

Despite the high noise levels, we had a great time here and were highly sati
