| - I really like this place! I discovered Toucan Louie's when they provided lunch for a Yelp event. I was so impressed with the presentation (and taste, of course) that I just had to check it out. They were even kind enough to provide alternative items for my lunch (aside from everyone else's) due to food allergies. Also,at the event we were informed that this place pretty much tries to use all fresh/locally-made products and that many of the items they prepare with can be purchased at the restaurant.
I visited on a late Sunday afternoon so there were a few people in/out. The guy taking orders was very polite and service was quick. I ordered a turkey sandwich with hummus and goat cheese. The best way I can describe both sandwiches that I have had from them is wholesome, as in filling and delicious. The bread that I had both times is the perfect combo of toasted, but soft. The bread also has an addictive buttery taste (the bread was a strong factor in my visit. Yes, that good and i like bread).The Turkey was perfectly tender and the hummus, so full of flavor. I purchased a tub to-go. When I used it to make a sandwich the next day, it really gives the kick that I didn't realize was missing (eh, lunch was getting boring). Honestly, I like it more than any hummus I have ever tasted.
Anyway, I am looking forward to trying out some more stuff from here in the very near future and often. I found the layout of the restaurant to be adorable. It is small, but think cozy/quaint instead of cramped. They have really done well in maximizing the space. There is table seating as well as bar stools facing the window. There was also some table-top/card games available. This place gives me the feel of simpler times... It definitely has a little something for everyone's taste buds.
