House of Louie was a Chinese restaurant in Portland, Oregon's Old Town Chinatown neighborhood, in the United States.[1][2][3]
History
The restaurant was managed by James Leung, as of 2006,[4] and closed in 2018 after operating for 30 years.[5]
In 2023, the building that housed the restaurant was purchased by the nonprofit organization Sisters of the Road. The group planned to use the building for offices and a cafe, opening in June 2025. As of October 2024 it is reported that the sale fell through due to lack of funding.[6][7][8][9]
