“I’m a huge fan of Anoosh Bistro - and am so excited for Chef Dave Danielson to take over the helm (as Anoosh is now in well-earned retirement). Attending the first day of Chef Dave’s “re-opening”, the food, cocktails and service were top-shelf as usual. Chef Dave is an amazing chef in the kitchen and a joy when making rounds in the dining room. As always, appreciated being made to feel like close friends/family when visiting. Cheers Chef Dave! Congratulations!!“

“Had lunch at river city bank today, best sandwiches we have ever had !!! I had a Ruben he had pork melt , both had potato latkes delicious!!!!!!!“

“Nice place for a family meal or place to grab a bite to eat. We enjoyed a dinner following the Underground Ziplines in the nearby Mega Cavern. My wife enjoyed a Scrumptious Pulled Pork Platter that satisfied, while i indulged in the Brisket Grilled Cheese...which was equally amazing. We arrived early and the place filled up quickly, is nice to see. I did enjoy their various house BBQ Sauces, and a couple hits of their Mop Sauce to my Bloody Mary was Beautiful! The wife purchased a Sweet Tangy Mustard Sauce before leaving.“

“We took our out of town guests yesterday. Our server Jessica was amazing! She really made our night! (If you are reading this Jessica, y’all/yins did a great job! Lol.) Everyone loved their cocktails. The pork chop was very tasty and perfectly cooked, loved the shrimp and grits… so flavorful! The salmon was also delicious! We had the cheese and hummus plate as a starter and I was not a fan. The hummus was gummy and had an odd flavor. The rest of our group didn’t mind it. I could have had the bruschetta as my meal… yum! For dessert we had the bread pudding and asked to have some bourbon to pour on top (so good!), the lava cake (wow) and the brûlée (coffee flavored and very nice). We were the last to leave and Jessica and the rest of the staff treated us if we had all the time in the world. We so appreciated that! Our experience was so special! Thank you!“

“On-line seating request worked great. Until we were seated in the heated outside area. Heat was intense, table was so loose we would not be able to hold it and eat, and table was covered with some sticky substance. We would have asked to move but nobody came to the table. So we left. Sad because the food is good!“

“Peach cobber was great ! ALWAYS good food! I had never been in there at noon before and everything stopped and we stood for the National Anthem. I Do wish I would have waited to order until it was over, because I had just sat down not even a bite then stood up , by the time it was over my food was already cold. Please don't misunderstand I agree with it.My father is a veteran.I just would have preferred to eat my lunch hot. And I can't think of anybody else.Who does that so I was surprised. But again everything is good!!!“

“Excellent food + awesome, attentive staff.“

“Whether I’m dining in or using the drive-thru, the speed and friendly service of this newest Jaggers location is second to none! I go for the food, though. I especially love one of their vegetarian options—the Black Bean Veggie Burger! I love their Chicken Cobb Salad, too, which is impressive for a fast-food option.Vegetarian options: The Black Bean Veggie Burger is one of my favorite meals there. It’s very tasty and plenty filling!“

“The chicken and the cilantro rice was excellent.“

“We arrived at the restaurant at 6:30 for a 7:15 reservation. Luckily we were able to be seated. Abbey was our server and was fabulous!! She was attentive, but did not hover. We had just come from the track and just wanted to relax and have a drink before ordering food. Abbey didn't rush us at all. I have a thing about lots of ice in my drinks and she brought ice several times for me. The food was wonderful; it was a great experience!!“

“We had a girls night out at Square Cut and it was fantastic! We had the “chefs table” menu so we could try several different things and every single bite was amazing. My favorites were the pumpkin dip and mussels. I’m looking forward to my next visit!“

“Cosmic Bird is my favorite vegan place in town. Their specials are always killer and I go out of my way to get there whenever sushi graces the menu ? the whole team and chef are so fun and kind and you can feel the love in the food. A must visit.Dietary restrictions: Vegan“

“We always feel at home at Karems. The servers work hard to make sure everyone is treated like family. Every menu item we have tried has been delicious! We particularly love the Boss Burger and the walnut mandarin salad with chicken. Sunday brunch is also a favorite! Matt makes the best bloody Mary’s and mimosas in town and the open face omelettes and Benedict’s are to die for!!! Highly recommend!“

“Great atmosphere. Amazing food.“

“This is a very comfortable place to go for a nice breakfast or lunch. Great friendly service and last week when I was there I had a breaded pork tenderloin which was an excellent sandwich, better than most I have had. I can’t wait to go there for a repeat!“

“We absolutely LOVE this restaurant! It is, by far, one of the (new) secret treasures in Butchertown. We adore the owner and staff, as we knew most of them from the previous establishment, Decca, and some from other favorite spots in Louisville. The entire menu is thoughtful and creative. The gluten free options are plentiful, as I have CD. Since their menu changes, some of the things I highly recommend this February are:Cocktails:Death Becomes HerLook AliveSalad:Buttermilk greens with garlic struselSmall plates:Marbled potatoesMarinated olivesEntrees:The mackerel (tonight's special)ANY steak on the menu (when it's offered)The chicken with Dijon jus (so good)!Honestly, the entire place has been perfectly curated. It's hands down one of the finest places in Louisville all-around.“

“Ricky B's never disappoints!! Rick is charming and so entertaining. The food is great as are the drinks. Friendly service and a wonderful experience.“

“We shared a breakfast with friends and family before going out to the Easter parade on Frankfort Avenue. The food was great, but the service was even better. Conner was incredible. Super responsive and attentive to anything we needed. If we ever go back, it will be to this location, and it will be because of Conner.“

“This is a definite must I have been here twice and both times I have had excellent service and the food is excellent“

“Great place to come by boat.“

“We had the absolute best tour at Copper and Kings. We visited half a dozen distilleries and took tours and this was by far our favorite. We did the culinary tour and our tasting at the end of the tour was paired with amazing bites prepared by Chef Josh. Everything was delicious and the portions were larger than we expected for small bites. The quality of the food was excellent. It was one of the best meals we had in Louisville - tied with Proof on Main and the Cuban restaurant. Our tour guide Daniel was super knowledgeable, funny, and incredibly personable. We loved Maple the dog too. This is a must do when visiting Louisville because the Brandy distillery offers something a little different than your usual Bourbon tour, the food is impeccable, and the people are super friendly.“

“We found Bucks by accident while staying at the Louisville Bourbon Inn. Live piano performance during dinner in a great, dimly lit dining room. The filet mignon was fantastic as was the service and ambience. Highly recommend Buck’s!!“

“My first time there I ended up getting the Jagger's crispy chicken sandwich. I didn't care too much for the barbecue Mayo sauce on it, but it it was very good, was non greasy. The fries. I absolutely loved my daughter had a hamburger there. It was huge, it was great. They have the best lemonade I have. Ever had between all fast food restaurants? Recommended highly their Lemonade. It was so good that the next day I had another appointment at the springs and I passed by there and had to stop and get the same meal all over again without the barbecue mayo sauce. I ended up just having the Mayo. Sauce on it only and of course that perfect lemonade makeParking: It was lunchtime rush both times that I had stopped so there was minimal parking and the parking lot, but there was always extra spaces towards the back But of course I was drive through. I was just observing the areaKid-friendliness: Love the little kids meal in the box as an adult box With a little cookie, it was enough to satisfy my little girl. And she absolutely loved the french friesWheelchair accessibility: From what I had noticed and observed when I went through the drive through. They do have the wheelchair accessible entrances to the doors. I did not park, so I don't know where the wheelchair accessible parking are“

“I make a stop at Royals every time I travel through Louisville! The food was delicious as always, got tenders with spicy wedges and mac n cheese. Replaced my usual bourbon shake with the pink lemonade wimce I had a 6 hour drive ahead of me and it was so refreshing.“

“Fantastic staff & great specials. Best local place for a drink & good food“

“Our bartender, Kristin was absolutely phenomenal! She was quick and pleasant to be around. She was so busy and the only one bartending on the Levvy side this past weekend. She had a group of 4 of us on top of the other customers and a wedding! She killed it! Her drinks are *chefs kiss*. This was my first time ever coming here and I will ABSOLUTELY be back. Especially for that cornbread!!“

“We had the the chicken livers, hot brown, and shrimp and grits. The portions were huge! All of the dishes we prepared excellently. Flavors and presentation were excellent. Service by the wait staff was excellent. Prices were very reasonable. I had an Old Fashioned to drink and it was done right. I will definitely be back!“

“Stopped here on a road trip for lunch. Loved the atmosphere as soon as we walked in. Handwritten menu, plants, etc. David took our orders and didn't rush us thru, took time to talk and learn about us. Kids had grilled cheese sandwiches and loved the sourdough. I had tomato bisque (yum) and salad. Husband had chicken salad and raved about the pickles. The restaurant is unique. It has 4 different seating areas. We sat alone on the bottom level and had a very pleasant lunch. Restaurant was very clean and homey. Will def be back if we ever return to Louisville!“
