Restaurants in New Albany

“I ate at outcast Wednesday. I would call to make a reservation and i would get hung up on, The host wasn't at the stand for around 10 minutes. the bathrooms were trashed and the host girl was rude to me. I've asked for the manager and I was told to leave. terrible service”

“Chicken and dumplings are great!! Thank you Like everything I have tried at the Exchange”

“My boyfriend and I drive out of town about 40 minutes because this is our absolute favorite spot! The ambiance is wonderful, service is always nothing but great, and the fish is DELICIOUS!! The freshest sushi I’ve ever tasted in the area. The escolar is always a go to. I happily spend a decent amount here and take a roll home as well. Charlie has always been our server, by coincidence but he is always on top of it!! I can tell this business has a great team by how well everything comes out. Servers don’t auction off items, everyone is super polite, food comes out in a timely manner. I’ve been coming here for years and have consistently seen, for the most part, the same servers and that says A LOT in the service industry! Keep doing you guys!”

“I ordered some and tried it for the first time tonight! Can’t wait to see how this works for my family! We seem to have pretty poor immune systems!”

“If you've been looking for pizza that tasted like it was from the heart of NYC this is the one. Best pizza I ever ate!”

“The food was delicious! The service was also incredible. Our server was so sweet and helpful and so was the owner of the restaurant. My family and I went to celebrate and we loved the food so much! Our experience was a 10/10. The music was also a vibe! Definitely recommend.”

“The Earl is one of those rare places that hits the sweet spot between dive bar and craft beer hangout, without trying too hard. In the middle of downtown New Albany, it’s got a industrial interior with brick walls, rough hardwood floors, and exposed beams, that still manages to feel warm and personal, im sure helped by the Bill Murray mural and fridge shrine dedicated to him. It’s weird, it’s charming, and it totally works.

Their rotating lineup of local and regional craft beers is always on point. You’ll find something familiar like Country Boy, but also a few wildcards you’ve never seen before. It’s perfect for after work or a laid-back late night drink.

On a personal note, this is where I first told my girlfriend, now wife, that I was falling in love with her. So yeah, for all the cool beers and eccentric charm, and even Bill Murray, I can personally attest that The Earl is also the kind of place where memories are made and actually stick. Can’t recommend it enough!”

“This place deserves more good reviews!This was a favorite family hangout spot a while ago and I’m always very excited to visit again. The waits can be long at times since they share a kitchen with the neighboring restaurant, but as long as you have good company, you’ll never notice!”

“We enjoyed a wonderful dinner at B&B with friends to celebrate a special birthday. Our table was ready and nicely appointed with a Happy Birthday note when we arrived. Our server was attentive, food was delicious and ambience was wonderful. We all commented how we could put this dinner up against anything we've had in Louisville. It's amazing what Ian and his team have brought to New Albany. Many thanks to all who made it a special evening.”

“My wife Brittany and I stopped in on May 10. The restaurant was packed with only a few seats at the bar. It looked like the hot spot for pre prom dinner. The waitresses were working their tails off trying to keep up and we were very patient. Boy did that patience pay off. Sarah was finally able to ask what drinks we would like. I teased her that water would be great if we ever get it. lol. Sarah immediately new we were kidding and fired back with a little sarcasm of her own. She was wonderful the entire. Sarah brought our bread out. It was very good, but the sauce for dipping was the highlite. Sarah made some recommendations, as we were first time diners. I had chicken parm and my wife ordered eggplant parm. We loved both dishes. Great attention to detail was taken in preparation and appearance. It looked better than any food I have ever seen pictured in a menu, and tasted even better. We followed dinner with chocolate cake and a raspberry sauce that still makes our mouths water. It was so food, we ordered more to take back to the hotel. I would say it is the best little spot in New Albany! Sarah's service and playful personality was the best part of our evening. The food was a very close second. BOTH were INCREDIBLE!!! Hope to make it in again sometime for more great company and good food! Shannon and Brittany”

“The staff there is wonderful. I am a regular and I have the best experience each and every time I visit. They also are very patient and super helpful with my elderly/handicapped mother as she frequents this location as well. Best smoothies. Best customer service. This place rules. Period. 🖤”

“Our first visit to Baer was last Sunday, and we couldn’t wait to go back again this Sunday! The food is consistently delicious and DeShawn is the BEST server in all the lands!!! We truly look forward to our Sunday visits to unwind, drink delicious wine and eat the most savory food!!!”

“I got the teriyaki chicken entree and a highlander sushi roll, so delicious! also my chef was an awesome and funny entertainer!”

“Great Service tonight! 10/10”

“Usually go in and food is great I got 2 sandwiches 1 was chicken cordon blue, and got a reuban, the Reuban I'll never get again it was well I ate 2 bites threw the rest of mine away, the other sandwich was about the same she threw
hers away. We'll go back but not getting those”

“My bartender, Christy was amazing! So friendly and made me feel welcome and at home. The beer was delicious and great variety, and the food was fantastic. Will definitely be back!”

“I just picked up a takeout order from Get it On A Bun At Booty’s for lunch - this was the first time I’ve ever eaten their food. Very good! I got a double smash burger, and it was great!”

“Food is always amazing. ❤️”

“Salma was amazing! 🤩 5 stars! Chips and salsa were legit!”

“We went and got our Recbar Reader cookies today, and the lady who helped us was extremely friendly and kind. We had actually never heard of Legacy Pizza before this, and already had lunch plans for today, but we will definitely be returning. Top tier customer service… not to mention the cookies were DELICIOUS!!”

“Max makes a mean mocha. The ambiance is amazing and reminds you of the Highlands over in Louisville, only better. Highly recommend stopping in when you have time to stop for a drink and just relax 😌”

“🌊🎂✨ THE BEST CAKE I’VE EVER SEEN!!

If I could give this bakery 100 stars, I would!! My boyfriend just picked up my ponyo themed birthday cake and I am absolutely obsessed.

They nailed every single detail, the pictures and the cake design came out very well and It seriously looked like a scene straight out of the movie. 😭💖

You can tell they poured a lot of love, creativity, and care into every inch of it.”

“Being a teacher, it's sometimes hard to make it to our favorite place due to the hours. But, it's summer now, so all bets are off! We made it in yesterday and it was fantastic, as always. Don't leave without grabbing a cookie. $5 for a fresh baked chocolate chip cookie that's the size of a small pizza and delicious when warm.”

“Food was amazing! Noodles are fresh and soft, the egg drop soup felt like I was back in San Diego! Service was incredibly kind, passionate, and personal, and didn’t feel corporate like other restaurants. Prices are very accessible, but with much better quality than other restaurants. Would come again, and again, and again.

Vegetarian options: Much of the dishes offered vegetable or tofu replacements.”

“This is our family’s “go to” ice cream shop. They always have amazing flavors to try! The owners are so friendly and the atmosphere is so inviting. If you’re looking for a local ice cream shop, look no further! Once you go, you will keep going back.”

“Don’t be sleeping on Aladdin's Mediterranean / Middle Eastern Cuisine located in downtown New Albany. Admittedly, it had been like 8 years since I have last patronized, which I regret! It was very delicious! Price point good. Portions were big. Friendly service and didn’t take long to get our food, despite it being Friday night. the Aladdin’s Steak Sandwich and it was amazing. The steak was cooked perfectly! I was full after eating only the sandwich. We also had the gyro bowl, the lamb melted in your mouth and the rice texture was on point. Not under/over cooked, not gummy. Even if you are unsure about liking this type of cuisine, just give it a try. I will be going back very soon. They seemed to have a pretty steady carryout line, so that’s always an option too! 10/10 recommend!”

“First time trying out Toni T’s today, and it was DELICIOUS!! My kids and I LOVED the classic sprinkle in glazed and chocolate, and my husband loved the raspberry filled. SO yummy! I’m not sure if the man who helped me was Toni the owner, but he was incredibly kind!!”

“The food here is delicious! The portions are generous. The beef Japchae is perfection. The beef Bulgogi is so flavorful. The rice cake and dumpling soup is perfect for this cold weather! I recommend 1000%!!!”

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

“I finally get to visit this place after a while. They did get my attention when I posted the Friday Fish Day.

I love their location, and it does feel right. I love all of their decorations since it was unquie.

They have a good selection of beers, and I love how they have Guinness beers include and also local breweries too. I looked over the menu. They have great choice. I was impressed with their curried that made me want to try, which I would come back.

This time, I ordered samoas, which i never had it. It was so delicious and I love the sauce! Also, I ordered fish and chip. This fish and chips does remind me of my visit in Dublin, Ireland, which i miss it so much.

I truly appreciate how the people work there keep check on me. I truly appreciate it.

I will definitely come back and try their curry.”

“went for my first time tonight. it was a fantastic atmosphere and welcoming people. the cast was fantastic and the owners are great! I recommend pride bar. I am a straight male who will stand by this and state they really have the hospitality we need in the community! I'll definitely be back!!!!”

“Great food and service! Best crab rangoons in the area.”

“Came here for the first time today & got myself 5 meals. I love the options they had!”

“Yummy! Good service! Great environment!”

“Food is really good. Staff super friendly. Everything made fresh and minimal wait time. Will definitely be back!”

“Went there today for my first time very great atmosphere didn’t know what I was wanting to get or what I should get so I decide to ask an employee there what they think is a good recommendation. After a few recommendations I decided to go with something and when I did, I was not disappointed. I’m sure there is multiple other things there that are very good but all in all great experience very well ran and very respectful employees will definitely be going back and recommending it to others. They sure did brighten my evening!”

“Staff is always friendly. Food is always delicious. Great place to grab a sandwich”

“Tried their strawberry chocolate dipped ice cream sandwich and it was so good! Plus the atmosphere and decor is amazing and the owner is super sweet!”

“very friendly people outstanding karaoke 🤘🏻 and the food delicious”

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

“This was my first visit to Wild Eggs, and was happy to eat a meal here. The restaurant is only open in the morning and early afternoon, so come by early.

I tried the strawberry tallcakes, a blueberry muffin, a side of potatoes, and a sweet tea.. All items were of higher quality food and enjoyable. The muffin tasted more like a cake than a muffin. This was my favorite item that I tried. Make sure to order a blueberry muffin! The sweet tea was served in a chilled glass, and tasted great. This drink would actually be refreshing, but needs to have less sugar included. Most of the food here was a bit too sweet for my liking. The potatoes were frozen food heated up, and not a fresh potato. Everyone at my table enjoyed their food.. Make sure to read the menu online before arriving. Prices here are expensive, but you do get good size portions and won't be hungary for awhile.

All of the staff members that I encountered were friendly and helpful. I didn't take long at all to get a table or my food after ordering. My waiter served us tea to go as well. This was a nice gesture on his part.

The inside of the restaurant needs some basic work done. My table was wobbly and somewhat dirty. I noticed some paint chips that came off the wall near my table.

If you are a fan of breakfast foods, then give Wild Eggs a try.”

“I have been coming here for coffee for years! Staff is always helpful and friendly. I have never had a bad experience, never a bad coffee, never bad food or snacks. If you are wanting good strong coffee that tastes great then give them a visit. Coffee is so much better than some large chain store coffee places in the area!”

“We recently ate here for the first time. Never knew this place even existed lol. The upside down pizza was absolutely fantastic. We have been back twice and plan to return again soon.”

“Great atmosphere,great owners I met. very helpful. Deck was beautiful outside. loved the outside decor and vibe. can't wait to go back. especially when it warms up more.”

“They have everything. Really, there’s not much they don’t have. It does look like it needs some updating inside and out which would make it more comfortable but they are well stocked on most everything you need for cakes and cookies.”

“another good experience food was good and waitress was awesome”

“This is amazing Mexican food! Israel knows how to run a restaurant and cook. And the waitress did a fabulous job!”

“band nights and atmosphere”

“I am a true, True North regular and i just cannot say enough good things! From the creamy perfectly made cold brew, to the sweetie baristas who i adore, the cozy atmosphere… it truly is my favorite place to start my mornings in downtown! Can’t recommend them enough!! ❤️”

“Our favorite local coffee shop!”

“The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly”

“Best ice cream in the area.”

“Bartender Rocks!! IPA selection is fantastic try a flight. Only recommendation is there is only one bathroom and the portapoties are gross. Make more clean accommodations.”

“New Ownership is amazing. This place is an awesome place to come hang out with a few friends and enjoy some great drinks. The new owner is also a trained chef and makes some of the most delicious BBQ in the area. The vibe is awesome, the Jukebox is awesome, the staff is awesome, the beer is awesome, the drinks are awesome. Come check this place out and make it a regular spot for your afternoon wind down.”

“My husband and I got the Let's Go Bananas Boom Shake, and it is a masterpiece! It has a banana Moonpie in it, with banana slices, vanilla wafers, and whipped cream. The shake itself has chunks of banana and vanilla wafers in it. Their ice cream is so fresh!”

“The food was good. we went for breakfast. Fresh food made the way we wanted it.
The waitress was really nice.
The only thing I didn't like was the smoke smell inside, having a bar right next to it.”

“My hibachi chicken lunch was amazing. The teriyaki sauce and yum yum sauce is the best I have ever had...ever. The servers and hostess were very kind and helpful. I can't wait to go back for more yummy food.”

“I have been to The Tavern now 5 times-4 of those times Jeremy has been my bartender and server-great atmosphere-great service-great food. 2nd night here this week only to see Jeremy!”

“The best burger in the area. Super chill place to have a beer with friends.”

“I had some cookies special ordered for baby shower. Beautiful details and decorated as I requested!”

“Good food …. Good service…. Friendly employees”

“seriously the nicest people and most delicious food!”

“This place is amazing!!! We had the best service (Micki) she was so nice. We were first time diners there and we will definitely be back 🥰”

“Best Fish Sandwich Ever!!!!!”

“Dee the Server on Monday nights provides excellent customer service I went tonight and had a fantastic experience made my day better then it already was wow he’s hilarious and will make your whole table laugh and memorizes your order without writing it. Food was hot and good as heck. He needs a promotion. Best service I’ve had ever at a restaurant. Other reviews say the same about this guy!”

“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.”

“Best Papa Murphys in the area. We love the service and quality we receive. Our family has been long time customers We will continue to come every Tuesday. Amazing staff. I appreciate the recognition we receive each week

Kid-friendliness: Anytime I bring my kids in they are offered cute stickers. This makes them so happy. They love coming in just for the stickers”

“The best of service in the local area's. Debbie is the best manage hands down and very compassionate about her customer's but yet very professional.”

“I can’t say enough good things about this place. Their service is not only excellent but they are consistently thoughtful and kind. They have the best water I’ve ever had in my life and their coffee is amazing too!”

“Unique atmosphere, great cocktails with a wide selection, and the staff was extremely friendly. The owner took the time to give us a little history about the speakeasy and showed us the “special entrance”. Very laid back atmosphere with different rooms for privacy for your group, you can visually see the original wood beams- super cool! Large bourbon selection too!”

“Just want to say u done an amazing job on the beautiful cake u made 4 THE BREAKAWAY recovery home graduation on Valentines Day!!! The flavor and decoration both were so great! Thank you for stepping up, Taking the time out of your schedule on short notice to assure that our graduate had the most amazing cake for her huge accomplishment!Thank you over and over!!”

“My husband took me here for a brunch date. This place is delicious. I had a bloody mary w/ chicken & bacon. The 3 little pig plate , was spot on! And the berry stuffed french toast was the best I ever had ! We also tried a flight of flavored memosa , raspberry, mango, strawberry, and im not sure what the other was but i drank it. A must try. This place should be on diners,dives..”

“We came and didn’t know what to expect. I had the fillet and John had the 20 oz. Ribeye. And they were melt in your mouth awesome. The salad bar is well stocked and has a wide assortment. The service was great and A big thank you goes to Rick for that. We will be back.”

“Always enjoy the food I get no matter what time, friendly staff and fast food. Rylee is a really nice worker and always ensures my food is correct. Recommend to anyone!”

“We took the opportunity presented by the beautiful weather to enjoy the patio. As usual, the service and food were amazing! I will say as a cautionary, if you plan on eating on the patio with more than four people, they can NOT combine tables. We solved this by taking two tables next to each other. The patio is great, but it is small.”

“Was really good food and Abby was a sweetheart”

“Stopped by on my lunch break and it was dang good.”

“One of the items I got from there today was a large strawberry milkshake. The milkshake was literally sour. I spoke with Makayla Bishop. She said she put my name down for a free large milkshake, but said that was the only option. She was friendly about it, but I could not imagine serving someone a sour milkshake, and telling them the only option was to try another one of our milkshakes. I think if I buy a soured milkshake from your company, and I want my money back, because I will never buy another milkshake there again, I should have that option. She did say that she made the milkshakes fresh today. but that doesn't mean that it wasn't sour. This is a really poor business practice, especially for a two-star restaurant. You need to start listening to your customers. I think she handled it the best she could. but there are obviously unethical people telling her they can't give money back, even if they are served inferior products. Due to your unethical policy, I will be reporting this incident to the health department. You really think I want a free milkshake? I came for good service, not replacement food. y You policy suggests that you think you are doing someone a favor by replacing dangerous food that you serve. I only visited, because my son wanted a milkshake, and now he said he will never want to go there again either.”

“I would go out on a limb and say you will not receive better customer service from nicer people anywhere in the food industry! The food is always great and the service is always fantastic. Wonderful group of people in there. Truly a highlight of my day”

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

“I love this place, and I love their black lavender tea! However, the most frustrating thing about this place is that they are ALWAYS out of something specifically, the black lavender. I’m sure it’s a very popular drink. But there’s been times where they’re out for weeks at a time. I gave it time thinking it was from the new startup since they had just opened a little while ago, and had moved their other store recently. However, it is still happening.

I don’t know anything about what’s happening behind the scenes, so it could be a supply thing versus being the actual store itself.

Overall, the staff is quite kind. They always serve with a smile on their faces. Inside is quite casual and relaxing. The drinks are amazing when they’re actually in stock.”

“would not let me use my gift card says that been hacked”

“Friendly atmosphere, good food and great staff.”

“My girlfriend and I love this location! We drive from Louisville, not caring there could be tolls, for this pizza and customer service has been great. We’re actually getting this for our anniversary November 13th!”

“I've done takeout from here a few times but finally decided to done in on one of my off days. The chips, salsa, and queso were all good and pretty much what you would expect from just about anywhere.

I got the tacos al pastor, and to say these tacos were some of the best I've ever had would not be an overstatement. The chicken was perfectly cooked and seasoned, the toppings were perfect, and three tacos were enough to fill me up. The sauce that came with it was divine!

The service was great as well. I got drink refills in a very timely manner, and everyone was very polite.”

“I love both Pizza King locations, but I do prefer the Jeffersonville location. It's smaller, usually less crowded since it doesn't have a train side, and the staff is very friendly. I love their pizza, it's my favorite place to eat! The only downside is the fact they are closed on Mondays.”

“Great .Steak n eggs!!Ut eas awesome!! yummy thank yoi my friend”

“Went to fistful of tacos the first time today for lunch and it didn’t disappoint. Ben the GM at the new Albany location was very informative and super easy to talk to. Super cool they craft their own beer!!”

“This place is legit my favorite fast food place in New Albany. Partially because they don’t ever mess up my order and it’s always warm, and partially because the staff is always in a good mood and Over the top friendly.”

“Great portions and really a great tasting meal everytime. I can split a dinner with my child the portions are so massive. I think they've gotta be my favorite Chinese restaurant so far and it's been this way for a long time now.”

“Extremely kind staff. They know many people by name and are very welcoming. I’ve been here many times and have always left very happy with the experience. Today they made my birthday extra special and I appreciate it so much!”

“Love the staff here. Today my mom and I came to get our coffees and one of the ladies wrote on our cups a heart and have a great day and it literally made our day so thank you to who ever did that. We come in about every morning and everyone is so nice and friendly at this location.”

“havent been here in 13 years...only came here today because pizza king closes on mondays..great pizza!”

“Absolutely everything is incredible I go several times a week”

“Brittany at Fern Creek store was amazing. She was very helpful and professional and got us together for last minute treats for our son’s birthday!”

“Haley was awesome, friendly and efficient-Ayres Chicken needs to keep friendly staff like Haley! It’s always a pleasure to have her help during our ordering process-5 stars for Haley!!”

“I spent about three years hearing about how good this place is before I visited it. With that in mind, I went in thinking there was no way it could meet the lofty expectations thrust upon it by my friends and family. I was right.Somehow this place managed to exceed all of my expectations. From the delightful and attentive server, to the delicious food as pictured here. Visiting America is always a journey for my stomach, and Tumbleweed was my favourite food stop on this trip. The environment doesn't immediately give off cozy vibes, but once seated it's easy to feel like you're the only table in the room.If I could give the service more than five stars, I would. My glass was never empty, and he never came around in that awkward phase right after you take a bite which was very nice. The chips and queso make for an warm up session for the meal. Overall, I am very much looking forward to returning here again, and making it a regular spot for myself and everyone I can drag there with me.

Kid-friendliness: The inclusion of a kids menu is a wonderful touch, and kept ours entertained throughout the whole meal. The staff were very nice to her as well.”

“Been going here since the 80's or maybe even before that! Best pizza ever! We love the pepperoni! We judge every pizza by this no matter what state we are in. Many are very good but this is the best! Wish the Pizza King in Corydon was good!”

“It's your standard burger king, there is one thing to note if you dine inside. Roughly every 30 seconds a loud beep comes from the dinning area and 3 seconds later you hear the same beep from the kitchen area. It's kinda annoying, I honestly don't see how the employees don't go insane.”

“Best Margaritas in town! love the atmosphere!”

“I have been going to this place since it was The Spaghetti Shop and I was a kid. Was always my favorite place and now it’s my daughter’s…especially the garlic bread!! Has not changed since I was little and am so glad it hasn’t!!”

“outstanding dining experience great pizza with superb service from bartender Megs”
