“My husband and I have been coming to the Wine Thief consistently (and probably far too often, lol) for the last five years and it’s still our favorite place in the Frankfort area! Michelle has been a fantastic resource for trying new wines - she even got me hooked on my absolute favorite rosé from Matthiason! She always makes sure she says hi and makes a recommendation when she sees us, even if she’s not our server. Tim has also been an amazing addition to the team here!“

“We recently visited for my bday on 5/31. The decor is beautiful and the service was stellar! Everyone was attentive and friendly. Our hibachi chef was amazing. He was extremely entertaining and super accommodating. He made our hibachi dinner experience the best we have ever had. The food was perfect and great portion sizes. My son even ordered Spider rolls and said they were amazing! My two teens and 1yr old enjoyed it immensely! Thank you all for the great celebration. We will be back for sure!!! Highly recommend to all!!“

“Their beer cheese soup is amazing! I had it at Gordon Ramseys place downtown and the soup here is better! It’s worth a trip just for that and the bread and better alone!“

“Very clean bar. Italian beef sandwich and Sicilian pizza was delicious. Bar staff seems to be very friendly. There is quite a lack of parking at this facility. There was only three people in the bar. Went on a Monday before 4th of July 2024.

I did hear they have karaoke on the weekend so hopefully I'll be able to check that out very soon.

If you have an opportunity I would definitely check out Cuzin's.“

“I like this place-we came at 8:20 pm for a half hour or so of fun. Quick and simple. Ten minutes after arriving we were harassed about them closing at 8:50 pm. Website says 9. Literally reminded maybe ten times no exaggeration about them closing. We didn’t want to redeem tickets just play a few games. Very frustrating and ruined our short quick fun for my kid.“

“Their beer cheese soup is amazing! I had it at Gordon Ramseys place downtown and the soup here is better! It’s worth a trip just for that and the bread and better alone!“

“Did a staycation for NYE and had brunch at South Side Social. The mimosas weren't bad and the buffet was somewhat limited. I want to visit again because their lunch/dinner meal has some appeal. They provide the food for the bar and the pizza and Buffalo shrimp were very good! We had extra cheese on the pizza but it wasn't necessary as the toppings were hearty and tasty. No food pics this time but I do want to revisit.“

“It is a beautiful venue that I have had many champagne brunches at for the past 20 years. The food and service is great. I knock a star because the gratuity is gigantic. On top of that the waitress was demanding for a large cash only tip. I understand policies and working to provide for your family. What I don’t understand is since when are the workers allowed to think that they are entitled to your bank account?! When you act like that you don’t get any tip from me. Usually, I have exceptional service and tip. Maybe attitudes are why the gratuity is automatically sky high these days.“

“Great place to watch sports“

“Papa Dimitri our food was DELICIOUS tonite. the wings, of course, ate my fave, but your gyros are THE BEST. your son and his fiance are THE BEST. thank you so much!!“
