Nashville chicken sliders were great. The Buffalo chicken was dry and flavorless though. The wings weren't battered, and the sauce lacked flavor. Drinks were good, and that Hennessy sidecar? Amazing! Servers were super nice and welcoming. It wasn't crowded, even with our big group. We played our music, and it was a great vibe.

Really great, roomy bar with plenty of TVs to watch all your favorite sports team! Booth seats were super comfy too! I I felt like I could just sit there and chill all night without being pressured to leave if I didn't order a bunch of food and drinks! Really great atmosphere! Our server was extremely nice and chill! She checked in on us at the right times and made us feel very welcomed even though we only had 1 drink each! My Wake Up Call drink was only slightly tart, not too sweet, and pretty darn good!! I knocked off 1 star for excessively loud music. I don't know if ear drum bleedingly loud music is part of Bar Louie's Saturday night regimen, but the music was louder than many clubs I've been in recently! Maybe turning the volume down a few notches would help, but if a lot of their customers like to yell when trying to have a conversation in there, then by all means, don't mind me!!

Confusing location. I didn't realize this was located inside the hotel but this Bar Louie is pretty big with lots of seating options. Happy hour menus is pretty good with half off appetizers and also $5 you call it liquor which also included shots, $6 margaritas and mojitos. The calamari and the truffle mushroom asparagus flatbread was our group favorite. I got the mojito but I found it lacking alcohol and overly sweet. A waiter was great. Nice to talk to and got our drink ordered in and those arrived pretty quickly.

No frill bar at the Holiday Inn, Oakbrook. I didn't eat here so can't speak to the food. I got a couple of Old Fashion cocktails and they were ok, not great but not the WI style either.

Sarah & Alex are the best!!! We stopped in after a Company holiday party with the Cap of Fortune 509 company and these 2 handled the place like rockstars !!! Service was TOP notch and ambiance was amazing. Wished they played some music to bop too earlier in the night but when they started we ordered another round. This was my VP 1st time in the area and she was impressed!! Great job Alex& Sarah for amazing service and dedication
