“My number 1 go to for fish here in Louisville. I've tried it all. Service is amazing, food portions are great for the price. love seeing the river in the spring time. The only negative is the parking. Hey it's worth the wait!“

“best place everrr!!! food is delicious and the workers are so fun“

“I love Wild Eggs and my go to server at the Jeffersonville location! Sadly, I was disappointed for the first time today due to the lack of cleanliness of the booth we were seated at. There are A LOT of old food pieces and crumbs all around the seat between the vinyl and wood. Even our host noticed it and attempted to clean up with a well-used bar mop towel. Needless to say, I immediately washed my legs and changed shorts when I got home after sitting on all that. These restaurants need to stop cutting servers and igniting safe sanitation practices to save a buck! Pay your team a true wage to clean. Thank you!“

“Old School NY Pizza is hands-down one of the best spots in Louisville for that authentic New York-style slice, and I’ve become a regular for good reason. The staff here is genuinely great—friendly, fast, and always welcoming with a smile. They make you feel like a local even on your first visit, and they’re quick to get your order right, whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or calling in for pickup. The salads are surprisingly excellent—fresh, generous portions, and perfectly dressed. They’re a solid choice if you’re balancing out the pizza indulgence or just want something light and tasty. But let’s talk about the pizza—it’s legit. The slices at lunch are a steal: big, foldable NY-style with that perfect thin, crispy crust, flavorful sauce, and gooey cheese that hits all the right notes. You can grab a couple slices and a drink for an unbeatable price, and it’s consistently hot and ready without feeling rushed or greasy. The whole pies are just as good if you’re feeding a group. The vibe is pure neighborhood gem—casual, laid-back, and comfortable. It’s got that classic pizzeria feel without any pretension, making it perfect for a quick bite, family dinner, or just chilling with friends. If you’re craving real-deal NY pizza in Louisville, do yourself a favor and hit up Old School NY Pizza. You won’t be disappointed—5 stars all the way! 🍕“

“The food was amazing. We ordered about 14 tacos and two Mexican coke for $35.“

“Had lunch today and it was fantastic! Best smash burger around, I will request one pattie next time ,its a big burger but delicious 😋 Cam was our server and he was so sweet and prompt and made sure we had everything was good and we had everything we needed! 10/10“

“Never had anything that I didn’t love!“

“Moved to the area a little over a year ago and always wanted to try First Watch but with their hours and our schedule never aligning we never got to go until today. We ordered the million dollar breakfast sandwich and the choose two with the turkey avocado sandwich and the chicken chopped salad. We also got the dragon fruit drink, the honey cruch iced coffee, and the salted caramel doughnuts. Drinks were very good. Food was good except my order was wrong they gave me the Cobb salad and when I told our waitress the issue and the mistake and all she said was that she could bring me some chicken for the salad. I declined because we were already done eating and I didnt see the point of the chicken when they were two completely different Salads and toppings. I don't like blue cheese which was all over my salad so I picked around it and ate what I could and my half sandwich. Other than that the experience was good. Just disappointed and not the happiest with the resolution.“

“best food money can buy and the owner is a great guy !“

“Mission BBQ catering at Lucas Oil absolutely exceeded our expectations. From start to finish, the experience was seamless, professional, and incredibly well executed. The food was phenomenal—perfectly prepared, flavorful, and served fresh. The pulled chicken and pulled pork were a crowd favorite, and the sides were just as impressive. Everything was well‑portioned and beautifully presented, making it ideal for a large event setting. What truly set Mission BBQ apart was their exceptional service. The catering team was organized, attentive, and clearly experienced. Setup and breakdown were smooth, service ran efficiently, and the staff was friendly, professional, and accommodating throughout the event. They handled the Lucas Oil luncheon with ease and ensured everything stayed on schedule. Mission BBQ delivers more than great food—they bring pride, professionalism, and consistency. If you’re looking for reliable, high‑quality catering that leaves a lasting impression, especially for a large or high‑profile event, Mission BBQ at Lucas Oil is an excellent choice. We would absolutely use them again and highly recommend them. Amanda Kendrick“

“Bro Kiley is also awesome she's so awesome and kind props to her???“

“First time at this Which Wich location and I was impressed! The staff was super friendly and explained the bag ordering system to me. I got a turkey sub with amazing toppings, and it was toasted perfectly. The ingredients tasted fresh and the service was fast. I’ll definitely be back!“

“The VERY best Korean KimBab restaurant in the area of southern Indiana.“

“Came to this restaurant for the 1st time and the food is incredible. Huge portions and absolutely incredible tasting. Staff is so friendly and I can’t wait to come back again.“

“My husband Steve and I ate there today, to celebrate our 33yr Anniversary of the day we met...We had the Monday Daily Meal Special, Lobster and Shrimp Scampi. It Was DELICIOUS!!! Our Waitress was very nice and helpful in getting our gift cards...and we even met a very nice staff member, Stacy, on our way out!!! Was A Wonderful Day!!! Best Life Ever!!!“

“Always delicious food. Service is top notch.
Usually it's pretty quiet, but today there was a screaming toddler. The father finally took the child outside to calm down. The kid was just really tired and needed a nap 🤷“

“We are longtime customers of this location and often bring our four sons and our daughter-in-law. We know much of the waitstaff and they often drop by our table to say hello when we come in. Teka remembered that our youngest (who has autism) son had just graduated and is about to start his new job. We were there without kids but she had all the employees sign a card for him and give it to us to take home. He was thrilled and it was so kind, but very in character for Teka. She’s always very thoughtful and will take care of you like family. We are so touched at her thinking of Noah this way.“

“Great food and service“

“My girlfriend and I just had one of the best experiences here! Our waitress, Paola, was amazing. She made our experience 10x better. She was kind and super friendly. I asked for recommendations and she did not disappoint! If you ever come here, I’d say to request her if you can! Oh, and try the huckleberry frozen margarita and their house-made corn tortillas. 1000/10 experience and will definitely be coming back!“

“We had a luncheon catered by the Fireside Bar & Grill today and it was awesome! Everything we ordered was amazing - everyone loved it! Jack was helpful and easy to work with. Highly recommend!“

“Really great Mexican restaurant, the food and staff are top notch. We eat here about once a week as a family, we have always had a great experience. The yolandas are especially good as well as the carne asada tacos and big giant burritos (kiddo’s favorite). The prices are 2022 reasonable, and you really get a lot for your money. You wont leave with buyers remorse by any means. The local choices within driving range are plentiful for restaurants, Los Aztecas is always one of our favorites.“

“Excellent food in the intimate lodge-style dining room and an incredible view of the river!“

“We had the best waiter ever today-his name was Jamel. He was polite and efficient. A true people person, which is so rare now days!“

“Great food. Covid safe environment. Close to home.“

“We ate there today. The servers name is Austin and he is amazing! The food was wonderful as always. I got the tex mex bowl. Even though the place was packed, we were seated right away, had amazing service. Got our food quickly and it was just an awesome lunch. Rolled out of their stuffed.“

“Absolutely amazing. Huge portions, amazing taste and great customer service.“

“Absolutely amazing sushi!! We are what you would call sushi connoisseurs. Have eaten sushi all over the world and this establishment is amongst the top!!“

“The Service and Food are amazing....“

“Always excellent food, fast service!“

“Such sweet people! Amazing with kids! 🩷“

“Roosters is basically a little bit better version of buffalo wild wings. The sauces are almost identical, except I think BDubs's sauces are a little on the hotter side, but taste-wise you can't go wrong, regardless. The real difference is the wings. Roosters wings were significantly larger. Number of wings is less (5 vs 6 or 10 vs 12 compared to BDubs), but even still, Rooster's serving size was larger. Service was excellent and VERY fast. Can't remember the servers name, but she was great, even when my kids spilled a drink all over the bench. Atmosphere was nice and light. Saturday at 6pm and there was no wait. Restaurant wasn't full but it wasn't empty either and the nose level wasn't crazy. Zero complaints.“

“I do NOT recommend this place. We went with a party of 15 this afternoon and had a truly disappointing, awful experience. We arrived shortly after they opened. We were the only ones on the outside patio the entire visit (just shy of 3 hours) and the inside dining room never got very busy, but you'd never guess by how terrible the service was. It took nearly 2 hours for (most of) our food to come out, and even then, several orders were wrong. Our drinks were rarely filled. Our waitress and other staff may have been stretched too thin, but did the manager ever come out to speak with us or try to make things right even once? nope! The food and beer prices are high and not worth the price. (Food arrived cool and tasted ok... not worth the prices.) No apologies were offered before we left after paying our expensive tabs. We will not be back. Don't waste your time! They clearly don't care about getting return customers.“

“The steak and vegetables are great. I asked for the ribs to be overcooked as I like them crispy. They weren't so I had to send them back (which I hate doing but, you want your food right). The ribs came back and it looked like they had been blasted with a blowtorch and smothered in more sauce. They were burnt black and inedible at that point. Which was a shame because everything was delicious.“

“Lawrence our server was fantastic!!!“

“Our food was good but we took some home and my turkey and dressing dinner didn’t have any dressing. 😂“

“I come to you're restaurant all the time, but today is a different story. I called to order and this is how it went. I told her what I wanted and she said ok bye and hung up. I was like really long story short i didnt pk up my food due to no time given to pk up and she never asked my name and was real short. Anyway I never pked it up, and I know she was someone new because this is not how they operate. Please hire better help until then I wont support.“

“This is by far my favorite pizza. Tonight we felt we would dine in and get hoagies. It was wonderful. The bread was so well baked.. my husband had the chicken and he says it’s the best sandwich he’s ever had fast food wise. I had the meatball. Was all fantastic“

“Amazing food i had the salmon lovers sushi and it was AMAZING“

“I had the burrito bowl, my sister had the birria tacos & we both had the elote. It was all so good! BEST ELOTE EVER. The queso was good, salsa was amazing & the churros were delicious! Staff was very attentive & nice. Highly recommend!“

“Very Friendly a staff! Tasty food!“

“Huge selection of menu items! Dined in … delicious meal served to us quickly and everything was hot and full of wonderful flavor. Didn’t take long to have dinner brought to us and apparently lots of customers order ahead and pick up on the way home.“

“Look I eat fine dining and I’m not an alcoholic ok? But this place has the BEST margs, great food and very quick service like people should shadow this restaurant to learn how a great place operates. We come here at least twice a month and havent had a bad experience yet. Their birria tacos are SO GOOD“

“Tonight’s pizza was exceptional!!“

“selection is great, atmosphere is great. always leave full“

“Honestly? This place surprised me in the best way. Ate at The Place Deluxe Buffet and every single station felt intentional. The steaks were juicy and properly cooked, not the dry, forgettable kind you usually expect from buffets. The seafood was fresh and generous, and you could tell they didn’t cut corners with the ingredients. What really stood out was the variety. There’s so much to choose from, but everything actually tastes good—no filler dishes, no “just there for display” food. It genuinely felt like a curated spread instead of a chaotic buffet table. The service deserves its own mention. The staff were attentive without hovering, quick to help, and genuinely pleasant the whole time. It made the experience feel relaxed and smooth from start to finish. And let’s talk about the price—because this is the shocker. For how deluxe everything feels, it doesn’t destroy your wallet. You get premium-quality food, great service, and a full-on indulgent experience without feeling like you overpaid. If you want a buffet that feels elevated, satisfying, and actually worth it, this one’s a solid yes. I’d go back without thinking twice. 🍷✨“

“Went in to grab a quick dinner. The food was great our server was friendly and seemed like he liked his job. Overall we had a great time the meal was good and hot and came out quicker than expected. We have been here a few times and it seems to be a pleasant trip everytime. Which is probably why we keep returning.“

“The service has greatly improved, definitely will be back soon!“
