Louisa's is a homey, feminine sort of cafe and bakery that seems like it belongs around the corner from the main street in some tiny town. It's menu is both slightly fancy and American traditional comfort food, and though it's a fairly small place it often hosts live music. In October 2013 they added a 7-seat cocktail bar, and while I feel like I'll have to come back to get a good handle on it, I was quite content with my "Cocktail a la Louisiane" (rye, sweet vermouth, Benedictine, pastis, and bitters). The emphasis at Louisa's for most hours remains the bakery and cafe, and the bourbon flatiron steak sandwich was quite nice.
