50 Best American Restaurants near Fern Creek

“Had a small wait (like 20-ish minutes) to be seated but that’s to be expected on a Friday night! My party of 5 was originally seated in one of their smaller booths, which was a tight fit but not uncomfortable. One of the hosts asked us if we’d like to move to a bigger one, which was nice. Our server, Kenzie, was the best part of the experience. She was so sweet and attentive the entire time, even with my family having a tendency to be a bit needy, and having multiple tables. She even wished my wife a happy birthday. 100% would go back just for her. Food and drinks came out relatively quickly for how busy they were, and were cooked just the way we wanted, and you could tell they were plated just before coming out.“

“5 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️…Lunch meal was delicious and the staff is tops 👍🏻“

“This place is awesome!! The food is great the vibe is also but the people are even better!! My server Jolene was just perfect very attentive and on top of it!! Will for sure be coming back!!“

“We were greeted by friendly service,, and the food was delicious.“

“Absolutely becoming my favorite location to enjoy a night out. I was a fan of the restaurant and then my wife and I had a chance to go to a cooking class with the Executive Chef. We made my favorite item on the menu. Honestly there isn't enough room on the form for me to describe my experiences at Bourbons Bistro. From the moment you walk in, you just know this is going to be a special place. The service is top tier. They make some of my favorite cocktails and their wine selection is great. I have had four different items on their menu and i can't wait for my next visit.“

“this was our first time there we surprised my oldest son who turned 13 today (4-17) the servers were very nice and food was amazing“

“Highly recommend this iconic place! We celebrated our anniversary last night and had a wonderful time. Great food and service! I had the chicken and my husband had the pork chops both delicious. The drinks were made well and our dessert was the flourless chocolate blood orange cake. The evening was perfect!“

“We took our out of town guests yesterday. Our server Jessica was amazing! She really made our night! (If you are reading this Jessica, y’all/yins did a great job! Lol.) Everyone loved their cocktails. The pork chop was very tasty and perfectly cooked, loved the shrimp and grits… so flavorful! The salmon was also delicious! We had the cheese and hummus plate as a starter and I was not a fan. The hummus was gummy and had an odd flavor. The rest of our group didn’t mind it. I could have had the bruschetta as my meal… yum! For dessert we had the bread pudding and asked to have some bourbon to pour on top (so good!), the lava cake (wow) and the brûlée (coffee flavored and very nice). We were the last to leave and Jessica and the rest of the staff treated us if we had all the time in the world. We so appreciated that! Our experience was so special! Thank you!“

“Great service, management is top tier here and it shows in staff morale! Thank you for quality service and attention to detail! The food is quite tasty!“

“great service, great prices, friendly“

“Food and service were great! We had the ribeye and the chicken fried chicken, both seasoned well and cooked to perfection. Sides were just as good. We will definitely return!“

“We had a party of 7 on a very crowded Sunday afternoon on Memorial Day weekend. Our food was delicious and came to our table in a timely manner. Our server, Marley, was the star of the show! She was attentive, professional, and made everything about our dining experience go smoothly. We will definitely return the next time we’re in town!“

“Their food is good but I’m disappointed that the cheese sauce recipe has changed. It was one of my favorite parts of the meal 😢“

“Exceptional Management, service and food. Can not recommend this restaurant enough. Please go eat! 5 stars“

I ordered the little 3 fish sandwich sliders and fries. The fish was OUTSTANDING!! This is the first time that I've actually eaten everything in an order since I started there 6 months ago. They regularly order from various restaurants up and down Frankfort Ave and for me, its always disappointing...but not this time. As we unpacked entree after entree everything looked and smelled WONDERFUL! This was the first time eating from DRAKE'S...but it won't be my last. I highly recommend the fish!! So for Lent right now... DRAKES cannot be beat for their FISH! Food: 5/5 | Service: 4/5“

“All I can say is wow. Been here twice in a week. The Shepherds Pie is insane good. The Scot egg, Mac & cheese, and beer cheese are all incredible. Great great food!!“

“Great pizza and friendly staff, thank you.“

“THAT PHILLY IS EVERYTHING 🤘🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥 HANDS DOWN BEST I'VE EVER HAD!“

“great place! Great food and atmosphere!“

“This is an edit to my previous review. I ordered mushroom and Swiss burger with two patties and a strawberry sundae. Both were phenomenal. I ate the Sunday first. I ordered it through the app and it was literally brought out as soon as I pulled to the waiting area. Hot, fresh and delicious.

For fast food, this place is pretty much my favorite. Everything I order is always tasty and fresh. Today I ordered the Reuben with a three piece side of butterfly shrimp. It was exactly what I was looking for and tasted wonderful. This Culver's is close to my house and they never do the wrong.“

“Great food, even better owners and staff. Our favorite spot in the city hands down. Nothing more to say besides 10/10 across the board!“

“Normally not a fan of the bar style environment, but this place had a nicer atmosphere. Trivia is always on one of the big screens. The food is amazing and the real reason to come. They also still have a partial kitchen after 10 which is convenient along with to go services. I recommend the chicken strips and wedges, amazing“

“our server Brandon was excellent. Very attentive and friendly. food was great and service was fast.“

“A great wholesome friends and family diner“

“The menu prices are outdated. Add roughly $2.45 for the sandwiches and the combos. The brownies are now $2.50.“

“We went there for the first time. The wait at 1 pm was only about 10 minutes for 5 people. The crab Benedict was sooooooo good! Delicious! Also had the Mushroom Omelet , it was delicious. And the Avocado BLT. Food was great, mimosas and Bloody Mary were great. Our waitress was so nice, attentive and so sweet! We will definitely return!!“

“We had 3 kids, and our waitress was fantastic! Very patient with the kids, and she recommended wonderful food!“

“We visited Louisville for a long weekend and stopped in for dinner on a Friday evening. The place was packed. Kait was our server. We started with the beet w/mixed berries and the cast iron rosemary foccaia--so good! The bread came with a berry custard/cheese butter mix spread--ridiculous! For dinner we ordered the half chicken and the risotto w/rock shrimp. Both were outstanding!! Katie did a great job and the staff really worked well together.
(Just FYI...they make their pasta in-house). Highly recommend!!“

“amazing food and drinks. loved the lobster Mac taco!“

“Ordered family meal salmon and chicken tenders, sides of broccoli casserole and mashed potatoes with cheese and bacon. The portions were great 👍 the taste was amazing 👏 and the crossont was 🔥!!!! Delivery was only 1.5 hours on a Sunday
This is now our go to spot. !!!“

“We had an excellent experience at drakes. our server was excellent. Olivia was sweet and helpful and just over all a very good server. she is an asset to the restaurant. we had the chicken sandwich, the fish tacos and the Buffalo mac and cheese. it was served quickly and was very good. we finished it off with a cookie and ice cream. it was all so good. such a good meal, we will absolutely be back. highly recommend this place.“

“Fun, clean, safe atmosphere! Great place to grab a bite with the kids and then a beer (or several) later on. TV set up is solid, great bar games (Pool, Golden Tee) and it has the #1 ranked burger in the city of louisville!“

“Excellent service and the food and ambiance was great“

“The chicken and the cilantro rice was excellent.“

“Great service. Food was amazing!“

“We came for our anniversary on a Sunday afternoon and CJ was our tour guide. He was delightful funny witty and very informative. You can tell this is a great distillery and a great place to work! We enjoyed the tour and the tasting and we bought some souvenirs at the gift shop. 10/10!“

“Jocari is awesome. Best Philly cheese steak around. Been eating at his stand for a couple years now every weekend.“

“Small eating area but that doesn’t matter to me. The food is delicious! I had the fresh crab cakes, fresh Brussels sprouts…omg amazing. I didn’t have room to eat the fresh asparagus and I ordered a California cobb salad with jumbo shrimp and fresh lobster claw meat with avocado which I will have for lunch tomorrow. I placed my order online late last night when I read about the fresh crab and scheduled to pick it up at 4 today. He cooked it all right there in front of me, everything fresh and tasty. Highly recommend!!“

“The food is wonderful, service is great, and always fun! Beer is always very cold!“

“Best fish n chips ever had after coming to the USA 30 years ago from England“

“Honestly, Home Cuisine is the best. I don't cook anymore, and have tried EVERY prepared meal company. Some are good, some are awful, but Home Cuisine consistantly wonderful.“

“Yummy food as always! Wonderful staff!“

“Great environment, food is made to order. It will in fact take 20 minutes plus if not more depending on how busy they are. You for sure will wait a pretty penny after ordering your food BUT EVERYTHING WILL BE HOT & FRESH NOOO QUESTIONS ASKED.
I Like that they open your box or each boxed from your order to show you your food before they bag it and hand it off to you.
Plenty on seating. Plenty of parking. One single unisex restroom. There is wheelchair access.
Everything on their menu is not online so it is more realistic to call in your order or come inside instead of calling to add or make substitutions.
Easy to talk to very patient.
I love getting food from here this is like the church soul food that you make sure you have a ToGo plate from.
I order the wing and chicken breast dinner with two sides ( Yams & Greens ) I add Cornbread and a small cabbage (the menu doesn't saying there is sausage cooked and mixed with the cabbage) with pork sausage.
Their Ribs Are Pork.
They do have spaghetti for a side that is freaking delicious as well!
Once you get close to the address slow down because the entrance/exit is kind of hidden.“

“Staff was the rudest I have ever encountered at the Middletown location. I also witnessed extreme rudeness to a door dash driver who had clearly been waiting a while and when they asked about the order having been marked 10 minutes ago as ready they were told "We don't care about YOUR numbers, we have to appear to be on time." He looked like management. I turned and left, I will not do business with someone being rude to staff or anyone providing a service to them any more than rudeness to customers.“

“Absolutely top notch service and excellent food! Crystal was wonderful and I saw so many other positive staff interactions with patrons and with other staff. I was in town for something less than fun and having First Watch there made things that much better.“

“These guys work very hard to ensure quality. I recommend trying them.“

“This place is a 10/10! The atmosphere and staff were AMAZING!! We came to Louisville for the day to find my wedding dress. After I said yes to the dress we decided to try Mussel and Burger Bar! They made my day 1000x extra special, took care of my food and drinks, and even gave me a platter of desserts to try! We are coming back to Louisville for my bachelorette and we will definitely be visiting this place again! The seafood burger was also delicious!“

“Ricky B's never disappoints!! Rick is charming and so entertaining. The food is great as are the drinks. Friendly service and a wonderful experience.“
