    First time visit to Steak and Bourbon and I will return again. The rolls with beef tallow candle were a fun starting touch and the caesar salad was one of the best I have had, and huge. Was planning on ordering the Top Cap Sirloin, but was told they don’t have it anymore and need to reprint the menus. Ordered the 10oz filet rare plus with a side of creamed spinach. Did not disappoint.

    While the food was good nothing outstanding. It seemed that the entree was overwhelmed by the side. Several entrees had Parmesan fries which covered two-thirds of the plate. Online menu different from actual menu. This is extremely frustrating when you take the time to pick out ahead of time what you would like to order only to find those items not on menu. In addition, if you are trying to keep to a budget during holidays having to make snap decisions while ordering is counterproductive.

    We had the best time at Osteria. Our waitress was very professional and attentive. The lobster bisque was delicious, and so were the scallops. The tiramisu was the perfect end to the evening. We'll definitely be coming back.

    Great food. It was hot. It was well timed. It was delicious. Short ribs and shrimp with pasta. Great selections. Food and wine. Attentive employees. Sincerely friendly. Is there anything you can do about the acoustics? Very difficult to converse without really yelling. If I owned the facility, I would seek professional help with sound dampening.

    This is a fantastic restaurant. The ambience is elegant, but old school although I have been here many times the food seems better than ever. It was very busy when we were there so the service was a little slow, but attentive and knowledgeable all the same. This is clearly a top five restaurant in Louisville
