History

Established in 1905.

One of Long Island's oldest and most colorful restaurants. From its start in 1905, Louis Zwerlein's "Kare Killer" was a most unusual place. One had to get there by boat since it was built on a floating barge anchored out in the bay. One of its side attractions was that it afforded a fine view of the approaching boats from shore. On occasion, a husband sighting his wife on a course for the barge would dive headlong off the far side and strike out for Great Neck. In 2002, the Picone and Guinnane families purchased the restaurant from the Zwerlein's. After 97 years, and three generations, Louie's experienced its most dramatic change. The restaurant underwent a complete and spectacular renovation. As a result, Louie's Oyster Bar & Grille begins a new century completely transformed, offering its patrons an elegant and tasteful dining experience coupled with the freshest and finest seafood and American style dishes.
