    yes there are several bikes always outside the restaurant/bar at LU an Joe's, but not all bikers are gangs, these are normal everyday guys/girls, heck , my dentist rides a bike into there at times. So don't let the bikes fool you. It is a FAMILY ATMOSPHERE with GREAT FOOD AND GREAT SERVICE. BEEN GOIN THERE OVER 25 YRS myself and I don't ride.

    I only buy beer on the side store. never been inside the actual restaurant. Marybe I should try it once. Always been scared to go in since I see many bikes and bikers outside, definitely I had the idea it was a biker bar. You should see this place around memorial day weekend.

    We happened upon this place eight years ago and have been frequenting it ever since. There is a "Come one, come all" vibe that creates a very friendly and family-oriented atmosphere. The food is outstanding; the Thai food can not be beat within a fifty mile radius. The service is warm and calm. At least one member of my family requests a visit to Lou and Joe's every week, and it is hard to say no!

    The first time I went to meet friends for dinner I wondered where they were taking me. As others have mentioned don't let the outside fool you. The cream of crab soup is to die for. Fri and Sat. are prime rib nights - better get there by 6pm or plan on a wait. The food is great I've never had a bad meal and never went away hungry the portion sizes are good.

    Not much to look at as far as fancy or upscale, but the food is the best. Crab Cakes, Lobster Bisque, Great Steaks, A SOLID VALUE. Just don'e expect anything much fancier than a chinese biker bar. It is strange but the best value in 1000 miles. The service is great, and they care about what they serve. I would not change a thing with this place. Lu and Joes is #1 in my book.

    I've been to this place in various seasons over hte past few years, usually with a group of more than 6. None in our groups have ever had a bad meal, and most of them eat at Lu & Joe's much more often than I do. Great variety on the menu, service is usually faster at lunch and early afternoon. Most towns would beg for a place of this food quality and broad variety, if they knew such places existed. I wich it were closer to my own home.

    Now a NO SMOKING restaurant ! !

    The best burger around. Portions are large and very affordable. It's more than a biker bar, no one will feel at of place here. You'll find all ages enjoying the food and beer - well those 21 + are enjoying the beer. Yes, kids are found here. Crabs are VERY POPULAR. I wish there were some micro beers on tap.

    For soup lovers their lobster bisque is unbeatable.

    The 22 ox porterhouse steak is a cooked to perfection bargain.

    Their crying-tiger is a NY strip steak cut into finger-sized slices: served on a bed of romain lettuce. Wrap a steak slice in a leaf of lettuce, dunk it into the crying sauce and shed tears of succulent joy.

    Crab legs are dungeness meaty and juicy; a full pound bargain.

    Maryland crabs steamed by the tray are enjoyed with beer and mirth.

    The seafood platter is high class; clam strips are large and tender.

    Red curry will ruin your appetie as your taste buds pleasure bite by bite.

    Siam rice is made with hearty stock; tender meat...very satisfying.

    One hamburger is a good meal itself, without a heap of full-sized-fries.

    For fair balance, Their Gen Tso's chicken could be improved by talking to the chef at the Llittle Far East II restaurant in Damascus.



    We dined at Gary and Dell's (Lou and Joe's) weekly for years and have never had a bad meal; We highly recommend them..

    One of the best burgers around for any price. Service is slow at times, but still friendly. It is a biker bar and can be loud at times. There are lots of none biker types of all kinds, no one should feel out of place. Great fried oysters, want to try the rest of the menu. My biggest complaint is the cigarette smoke. You will come out smelling of an ashtray. I don't smoke, so it is a consideration for me. Still I love this place. The price is right. I wish there was a bigger selection of beers on tap. Just not a big Bud/Miller/Coors fan. Maybe with the smoking ban, the air will clear up. Then it would be about perfect for a neighborhood biker bar.

    This has to be one of the best bargains in eating. The food is fantastic and incredibly eclectic. Service is fast and courteous. The prices are very low. The ambiance is (literally) biker bar mixed with pictures of the Thai King (I said 'eclectic!') but the bikers stay mostly on the bar side and have never been noisy the many times I have been there. (Admittedly, I tend to go for lunch or early dinner, but I have heard that the management does not put up with rowdyness.)



    You simply cannot go wrong with ordering Thai, Chinese, or American.
