- RrubieCentral Kentucky •2 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoThe food was amazing! Every course, impressive. Service was slow. Took 20 minutes to get drinks and not offered water. We had our first course before our drinks and there was only 8 other people in the restaurant. With that said, the food was amazing! Worth the value but our bill was not priced as shown and charged $10.00 over before tax and tip. Atmosphere and food, worth itMore info8Up Elevated Drinkery + KitchenPrice: Expensive• American• West Louisville•3.5

- OTOpenTable DinerCentral Kentucky •2 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoI came in and celebrated Galentine’s with two of my closest friends. The food was phenomenal, and the drinks were great! Now, our server AJ Calvin seemed disoriented and behind when he came and greeted our table. When he first introduced himself, he stated he was the host and would be bringing us water, which left us slightly confused about whether he was specifically our server or just a host. It also took a while to take our drink and appetizer orders. Once asked if he was our server, he swiftly corrected us and said he prefers to be called a host rather than a server. From there, the experience started to decline when he told jokes that honestly weren’t funny or humorous; his jokes bordered on unprofessional. Maybe he was having an off day, but his inability to read the table throughout the entire service left a lasting negative impression.More infoSteak & Bourbon - DowntownPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• West Louisville•4.8
- AamyCentral Kentucky •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoRoss was our server and treated us like VIPs. There was a large convention in town and usually that causes individual attention to go out the window but not here. It was my 10 year old grandson’s birthday and they made him feel like a grown up. It was a magical experience worth every penny. I think this is the first time since COVID that I felt like we were actually having a fine dining experience. The food was fabulous we got the 3 tiered seafood tower - yes it is expensive but as far as a return on investment it was over the top. The presentation is impressive and each item was perfectly prepared. Ross and the rest of the staff went out of their way on a very busy night and I think we are going to make it an annual event. Thank you Brendon’s and thank you Ross.More infoBrendon's Catch 23Price: Very Expensive• Seafood• Downtown Louisville•4.9
