20 Best Wine Bars in Louisville

“We went for brunch! It was heavenly. The espresso martini didn’t depresso. Excellent! My Hubby had a dish with their red sauce & I cannot wait to return for dinner for THAT sauce.“

“We stopped by after an early bird Valentines Day. The staff was so welcoming and lovely. The decor is great and matches us perfectly; he loves bourbon, I likes wine. The game corner with cozy couches was a great place to unwind. The 6 flights were a great option to sample the extensive wine list at a super reasonable price. We are so sorry to have slept on this gem for so long. They hold several events, tastings and socials. Looking forward to adding to our regular rotation and checking out the calendar!“

“My sister and I shared a wonderful evening at Cuvee last night. We overindulged on some recommended reds, and thoroughly enjoyed sharing a few small plates and the dinner special of salmon over fettuccini pasta. We were pampered by the staff and treated to a birthday dessert. We can't wait to come back.“

“While I recognize and appreciate good bourbon, I can’t get away from my favorite spirit, mezcal. I live in a control state where only like 10-15 mezcals are sold in the state controlled liquor stores….statewide. Anytime I go out of state to non-control states or out of the country, I always make a point to find the stores and bar/restaurants that have the best mezcal. Pretty Decent did not disappoint. Service and atmosphere were great. Mezcal selection was unsurpassed outside of Mexico or major metropolitans ie DC, NYC, Chicago. Service was commendable, friendly and warm. Wish I had more time and money to spend. Cannot emphasize enough that mezcal selection was amazing.

Parking was on the street. There is a plant shop in the front. Food is limited, but it was good.

Parking: Street parking was all I could find. It was a Thursday night so not sure how it is otherwise.“

“Connors has been a longtime favorite of ours. Over the years, we have had several good meals here, with service that often went above and beyond. I know how hard restaurant work is, and I’ve always appreciated the care the staff put in. But our most recent experience left us disappointed. The service was unexpectedly inattentive. We ordered a nice bottle of wine, but our server never returned to refill our glasses. A French fry order was forgotten, and when we asked about it, things seemed to unravel. The server was visibly exasperated. A supervisor eventually stepped in, handled things professionally, and assigned a new server—but by then the mood had shifted. This wasn’t just any lunch—it was a farewell meal with a dear friend leaving town, and I’d hoped for a flawless experience. At over $230, I expected more attentive service. I don’t share this lightly. Connors has been a place we’ve enjoyed many times. But this visit left me disappointed, and I won’t be returning anytime soon. There are many excellent Sarasota restaurants where $250 buys not just a good meal, but service that feels genuinely welcoming.“

“Came here to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday, and it was truly a memorable experience. We received some of the best service we’ve had in a long time—Tryston and (I believe) Tessa were absolutely amazing! So kind, attentive, and professional. The entire staff was phenomenal.

The food? Incredible. Every dish was beautifully plated and full of flavor. The steak with black truffle butter was to die for. Drinks were good ! I also loved the thoughtful extra touches they added to make the evening special. Even the manager stopped by at the end of our meal to check in and say happy birthday, which I really appreciated.

Highly recommend—can’t wait to come back!“

“Stopped in for a tasting and had a great time visiting with Sarah and learning about the brand. Highly recommend stopping in and enjoying the spirits and conversation!“

“Friendly bartenders and delicious drinks (pictured is an espresso martini). There is a patio area in the back where they had bingo, but I did not get the chance to check that out. They offer live music and have outdoor seating, bar seating and large booths available as well. Cozy vibe and a great place to relax.“

“Amazing food! Get the scallops, you won’t be disappointed!“

“a good place to spend a nice moment has pool tables and a lot of spasio I like it because of the way the bar treats you are good and honest people a good place for Mexicans and everyone who wants to get closer I think will be well received i give 5stars because i can't put more for me igive them 10 stars 😀😀😀“

“Great food, great place to eat.“

“How could we rate Ruth’s anything other than 10/10. My Wife graduated college yesterday (Thank you, Thank you) and our experience at this establishment felt personally catered. Khalil, Ricky, Kiki… this is exactly how an upper echelon dining establishment should be run. Multiple service checks, casual conversation, fast cooking, and the food was of the quality to which we paid. I couldn’t be more grateful. For the sake of the readers I’ll keep it simple, take a night out at Ruth’s. When you do, ask for the servers listed above!“
