Loui's Lunch in New Haven, CT is a staple with locals. A great place to meet up with friends, grab a bite & soak in some history! We had a blast with these guys!
The hamburger is delicious, but it is the history that makes it so famous. It's the restaurant itself and the atmosphere rather than the food that makes it such a wonderful place.
i wanna go to this place really bad to see what it's about. the tv shows praise it for its importance to history but the youtube commenters hate it because it supposedly looks raw. i need to see for it myself at this point
Man you can make a hard times ghetto burger at home, just take some wonderbread cheese whiz and some ground chuck, and you’ll be instantly transported to the Great Depression flavor... ugh.... but at least at home you can make 20 of the endless mediocrity burgers for the price of one here... how ridiculous... next up let’s microwave Sara Lee, Betty Crocker, or stouffers, charge premium and say it’s a family tradition... Jesus Christ....
@@Choptron27 bro, there's alot more to Louis than that...the beef is a 5 blend, not some graveyard smack you think it is, now you need to flame cook it and then put something that looks like it was alive on it..yeah, white bread and cheez whiz are urban but it all works
@@ledzeppelinfan1001 glad you like the Zep, but if you ever want to make money? Sell the "sizzle, not the steak"...how do you think McDonalds stays in business? It ain't the food, and go fuk yourself troll boy, you must be "dazed and confused"
The main reason why you would visit New Haven is for the pizza. If you have time left, definitely try the burger…..it’s not about whether it’s good or not, it’s more about the historical experience.
Its called the first hamburger where burger breads from that time doesnt exist. And it is from a concept of a sandwich. Technically it is a "prototype". The first ever car used coal and steam (not engine) and that doesn't change the fact that it is still a car.
This is literally the place where the hamburger was first made this was literally how they were made then. The cheese sauce is scratch made cheese sauce and this burger is so old it literally came before hamburger buns were invented.
All they have going for them is the name and the original burger gimmick. Their beef quality is trash, Nd they serve the patty on soggy cheap toast bread all in the name of being original. Step your game up with the beef and bread quality
Why is everybody so down on ketchup ketchup never hurt anybody ketchup isn't trying to take away my constitutional rights ketchup isn't running around telling me we need more communism in this country leave ketchup alone
Wish I knew about this place in the 80's. Probably within a mile of it dozens of times.
This is more like when your mom tells you we’ve got McDonald’s at home

Cross contamination
It’s shit
the potato salad is some of the best
The Hamburger came from Germany but the Americans developed it further !
That is Louis' Lunch.

Those burgers looked raw

Mustiboi Salman he’s probably joking
Its called "medium rare"
TAKE IT BACK NOW!!!!!! NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you don’t like red, then you’re not getting it.
White sandwich bread.... no thanks
Everyone goes out of their way to avoid admitting it's shit. On every video of this joint.
Great burgers, go medium rare
Sounds nasty as fuck
Loui's Lunch is the plain Jane of burgers
For me it'd be perfect! Cheese only and if they have it grilled onion also! The only way I eat them!
Came for the comments from easily entertained, and insulted, "food critics". Not disappointed.
hamburger on white bread --is that like mustard mixed with mayonaise. ---looks gross.
It's cheese wiz
Excellent
Not the birthplace of the hamburger
exactly 6 oz. patties. unlike mcdonald's which has become paper thin, or wendy's which are almost white castle size now.
I heard it’s super ghetto
first nasty burger?! lol
YALL PROLLY STIL WARING MASKS HAHA
Awesome Burger!!! Hands down...
Very First Hamburger Sandwich as Recognized by The Library of Congress.
1st and our worst attempt.
Been there cause i lived 45minnaway,its like $8 for one
This is a good burger
Raw hamburger meat on toast. Don't get it. Not for me
Looks nasty.
I can make a better burger at home blindfolded...and im a terrible cook.
Eating burgers goes back to ancient times. The “oldest” bit is a gimmick. Oh, and stop telling people what they can put on their food. It’s childish…
grosssssss 🤮 🍔 🤢
Burger on Wonder Bread with cheese whiz is not a real hamburger
Please. What is a real hamburger?
Its called the first hamburger where burger breads from that time doesnt exist. And it is from a concept of a sandwich. Technically it is a "prototype". The first ever car used coal and steam (not engine) and that doesn't change the fact that it is still a car.
This is literally the place where the hamburger was first made this was literally how they were made then. The cheese sauce is scratch made cheese sauce and this burger is so old it literally came before hamburger buns were invented.
You probably think a hotdog on a piece of wonder bread isn't a real hotdog huh? You entitled cunt
Who are you to say what it is ya prick?
All they have going for them is the name and the original burger gimmick. Their beef quality is trash, Nd they serve the patty on soggy cheap toast bread all in the name of being original. Step your game up with the beef and bread quality
you sound JUSS LIKE JELLUS CHRIS
BS. Plain white toast w/ a sliver of onion is fantastic. No ketchup, no brioche bun none of that sissy stuff
Its very bland....
How.
The food and the establishment looks disgusting
Yeah their customer service is dog shit too, so presumptuous.... over their cheap “hard times” burger... nasty soggy bread... that place is a joke
YOU DO PEE POO HEAD
Lollllllll nerd!
An old preppy said that I'm sure
Hard pass on that crap.
Why is everybody so down on ketchup ketchup never hurt anybody ketchup isn't trying to take away my constitutional rights ketchup isn't running around telling me we need more communism in this country leave ketchup alone
Maybe it’s because of having 2 ways of spelling. Catsup or Ketchup. 😂. What gets me is all these NO ketchup places serve tomato 🍅 on them. 👍
@@edwinrodeo yeah good point no ketchup but a tomato and how come these places don't serve fries your a burger place and you don't serve fries
