Cap't Loui Duluth — Restaurant in Duluth

The longstanding loyalty I've held for Capt Loui, previously Louiloui, dating back to 2015, faced a significant challenge on February 18th. Despite my consistent patronage and positive experiences, the evening unfolded with disappointment. Upon arriving at 7:15 PM, a call to inquire about wait times resulted in a host's assurance of no delay. However, upon my party's arrival, the same host declared a sudden 40-minute wait, attributing it to a purportedly inexperienced staff member. This abrupt shift in information, coupled with unprofessional behavior, contradicted the seasoned staff's presence, leaving me disheartened.

The inconsistency and lack of accountability from the host marred the restaurant's image, undermining the trust I had built over 40+ visits. The disregard for loyal customers like myself is concerning, and unless the management promptly addresses these issues and provides a satisfactory response, I find myself compelled to sever ties with Capt Loui. Furthermore, I feel obliged to actively dissuade friends and family from patronizing the restaurant, emphasizing the importance of consistent professionalism and transparent communication. The urgency of this situation cannot be overstated, as the lasting impact on the reputation of Capt Loui necessitates swift and effective...

The best seafood you will ever put your mouth on. The calamari is these fat circles of warm crispy goodness, and the sauce is okay .. haha, it works but its even good by itself with no sauce, hands down amazing. AMAZING. Im not making a lie when I say if I live 100 miles away I will come back here. The omg theirs so much garlic, the aroma of garlic enveloping your nose as you open your bag of goodness in front of you. The potato, the corn.. oh the lobster, oh gosh the lobster. The crab the pulling of the meat from the shell is immaculate. Heaven. Closest thing to heaven ill tell you, and the adult capri suns. Not very liquory for $11 bucks but its cute, oh gosh I forgot to take a picture of it my hands were so messy with the sauce that I just couldnt help myself. I got mild sauce cause I dont like spicy but I believe I got medium one time ago.. it was definitely snot coming out my nose so just be careful with the heat chart.. haha.. great place! Great place. I mean I can go on and on, saw a couple guests get raw oysters, the look of pure bliss on their faces made me think maybe I should try them too, but overall such a good place if you dont know already ;) Oh and oh my goshhhh the boiled eggs! The potato oh the potato I love the...

My wife and I have been coming to this place since 2018 with over 40 total visits. It's that good!

You have to go with their signature sauce. The Captain Loui sauce is like tasting the sweet sweat off of God's balls. Yes, you read that right.

As for sides, the lemon pepper fries is a must. It's so addictive to the point that I think they sprinkle some crack on top. I never done crack in my life, but if its this good, I'm open to experiment.

Service is awesome, never ever had a bad experience. Our servers are always friendly. I may have been emotionally tricked into thinking we're family on multiple occasions. (Shout out to Hailey, our server on the day of this review)

They have a bar for the tipsy inclined.

Alright, here's the possibly one negative aspect of this place. Don't get tricked by the name Loui, the flavor of their broil is nothing like Lousiana. I have tasted seafood broils from Lousiana and this aint it. Don't expect that from this place or else you're going to be highly disappointed.

Please Cap't Loui, have an AYCE mussels option! I will fund your entire business for the next 50 years or until I die from all the calories!

But I will die...
