Yes, the food here is just okay. Yes, the main reason to go here is for the great view of Sutro Baths and as part of a larger beachgoing itinerary.
But is it still worth waiting in line with the other tourists (and some locals) to snag that window seat? Yes.
High school teens serve up standard diner fare at Louis', a shack perched right above the ocean and the literal washed-up ruins of a weird public bathhouse.
Thankfully, the owners decided not to make the prices sky-high despite its one-of-a-kind location. At the same time, they haven't done much in the way of making the food one-of-a-kind, either. That's probably because the tourists supply a constant stream of one-timers. I should also say I saw some ketchup consolidation going on.
Anyway, I still recommend this place. And breakfast at Louis' and poking around Sutro Baths is definitely a Quick & Dirty combo.
