“Great friendly employees. Was a great night”

“Very small quaint spot for date night! Food is great! Bar area is small & cozy but can get extremely loud!”

“Blueberry Donut and Jelly Filled!!!”

“I have been down on McDonald's for awhile now. Decided to stop in because I was in a hurry. I'm glad I did. The service was fast and the food actually tested good. Big Macs used to be my favorite, but at most places they are just bland. Not today. It was perfect. All my food was. Even called to thank them for it. Would definitely go back to this location.”

“Wow. The food here is nothing short of amazing. Had a Cuban braised pork dish with black beans and plantains and it was delicious. Mojitos are made there and look as good as they taste.

Highly recommended.”

“I love this place!!!! The decor is so pretty, and I love their food!! Definitely would give it a try if you're in the area.”

“One of the finest meals I've ever had in my 40 years on this earth. My date and I had a fantastic evening due in large part to our server Patrick, who was PHENOMENAL. He was top notch in all respects. His assistant, Moreblessing, was equally awesome. They were truly incredible the entire time. The food was amazing, the service was even better. This type of dining experience seems to be going by the wayside these days so it was very refreshing to have such amazing service. If I'm the owner/GM I'm giving Patrick and Moreblessing a very large raise. I can't imagine their other customers would write a review any different than my own. They are that good. We will definitely be coming back!”

“the coffee, the ice cream and the vibes are on point”

“Mannnnn. This place is EXCELLENT. My second time here was just as amazing as the first. Eve was our server and she was fantastic. We had a group of seven and a lot of us split our entrees so we could try everything. There was literally nothing we didn’t love. We live three hours away and I would drive here just to eat dinner. Kudos to you guys and thank you to eve for the fantastic service! If you have an opportunity to sit outside on the outdoor enclosure do so! It’s a tropical paradise in Kentucky!”

“Gigantic slices that are delicious! If I lived in Tullahoma I would eat here everyday.”

“Let’s start with atmosphere. It was well kept with nice decor but I wouldn’t consider it fancy. We ordered the lebnah, liver mousse, and tuna tar tar. The mousse was the clear favorite out of the 3 amongst us. The tar tar was a bit over seasoned with chili or cumin. For the main, we got chicken shawarma and lamb meguez. They were quality and well cooked, but lacking that pop for the price. Overall, I would recommend this place to friends and family for its variety and ethnic background. However, it is a bit pricey.”

“We always enjoy our experiences at Volare’. Fresh seafood dishes flown in each Friday for another one of their exquisite seafood entree’s. Large portions are in order and our favorites are the steak with bourbon glaze and salmon with a hot pepper sauce. Don’t forget to order their decadent desserts, even if you take it to go. Caring staff that make certain that your visit is flawless.”

“Had an amazing experience at The Mayan Cafe! Their food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. I also really appreciated how accommodating they were with allergies. The staff was knowledgeable and made sure everything was safe for me. Highly recommend! Will definitely be back.”

“Great food. Great atmosphere. Loved it”

“Definitely a 10/10 experience!”

“It's rare that we have a date night on a weekday with two young children, but tonight was the exception. When I realized our anniversary was falling on a Wednesday, Perso was the first place that came to mind. Perso's Prix Fixe Menú is available every Sunday through Wednesday and offers a three course meal for $29. It's no secret that I'm a fine dining enthusiast; but who doesn't love a bargain? If you're looking for a nice night out without breaking the bank, this is your spot. Perso sits at the corner of Oak and Shelby in the same location as the former Square Cut Pizza. The giant windows in the front provide an abundance of natural light. The interior has a modern industrial vibe with painted exposed brick, plants, and Edison bulbs hanging on pendants. One wall with wooden slats gives a Scandinavian feel to the main dining area. It's a small-ish intimate space with a beautiful patio. For my first course, I chose Crostino Di Tonno- olive oil poached tuna, stracciatella, pickled celery, and Calabrian chili. I followed my first course with olive oil poached swordfish, corn chowder, and golden zucchini scapece. For dessert, I had the chef's choice: apple strudel with whipped cream cheese. My husband chose heirloom tomato with roasted eggplant, bagna couda, and fine herbs. For his main course, he had pork tenderloin with edamame, beef dashi, and fine herbs. We both opted for the chef's choice for dessert. I tasted each of his courses and they were every bit as delicious as my own. The edamame provided the perfect texture and his tenderloin dashi tasted gravy-esque without being overly heavy. Mostly notable, besides the insane deal for such decadence, was the fresh flavor combinations throughout. Our table had fresh rosemary as a centerpiece. The corn chowder was right up my alley. I could've licked my bowl if I wasn't trying to pretend to have a bit of class. The swordfish was tender, juicy, and not overly fishy. The tuna flatbread was the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. The mint on top of my whipped cream cheese truly set it apart. My lavender Manhattan was earthy and smoky, not just in flavor. It was literally smoking. My husband had an old-fashioned. Neither of us were disappointed. Our server, Amanda, was phenomenal. She offered recommendations. She visited our table to ensure we were satisfied the perfect number of times. Her warm demeanor was professional while also being personable. She was everything we hope for in a server. Perso's Sunday through Wednesday Prix Fixe Menú is hands-down one of the best opportunities for an affordable night out. That being said, once you get a taste of what they have to offer, you'll be sold on splurging any day of the week.”

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

“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!”

“We had a great visit - the service and juice selections were great!”

“Menu is small, but "bourbon and the bird" sandwich was delicious. Great sauce and great texture/breading for the seitan chicken. The owner was funny and personable too. Very casual, order at the counter place. Updated from previous review on 2025-01-03”

“My friend and I went to Jeff Ruby‘s in 2024, and we were very impressed. The food and service was phenomenal! We will definitely go back there again.”

“We had a fantastic dinner here. Food was great tasting, service was fast but not rushed. We enjoyed this place very much and will be back when we return to Louisville.”

“Great intimate vibe. As soon as we sat down, we were greeted with waters and menus. The housemade chex mix was a great touch. The bartender was very kind and attentive and talked through the cocktails with us until we found a drink that seemed perfect. Each cocktail we perfectly executed and so tasty! Went with a group of friends and would definitely recommend a reservation for a larger party to make sure you are all seated together. Can't wait to go back for a date night.”

“We loved the friendly service, great food and quick food delivery. We had the chicken biscuit with gravy and omelet plus bloody marys and coffee. Thank you- we will return!!”

“Just had a wonderful experience, the staff was awesome at explaining everything to us as newbies. Took my husband axe throwing for Father’s Day and we had a blast! The atmosphere was lowkey and unassuming, and the other players were awesome at rooting everyone on despite us all being strangers. It doesn’t matter if you win or lose you’ll be guaranteed to have fun no matter what. The whole setup is so innovative but also very user friendly. We will definitely be back!”

“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.”

“Tried this for the first time today and loved it! Just when I felt there were no new interesting spots in downtown Louisville, a friend recommends InSeason. Yes! Wonderfully flavored and very friendly service by all. They moved fast and kept the place hopping. Very clean, too! Love the farm to table options. We will be back!”

“Lovely atmosphere, quick friendly service, with complementary tea and soup samples that were extra comforting on a cold night. Baklava lovers will be pleasantly surprised as well. Will definitely be back!”

“Everything was amazing, the food tasted so fresh and the bourbon cocktails was the best I’ve ever had. Our server Jack was incredible and definitely deserves a raise!”

“I pick up some of their cookies when I’m in the area. The cookies and cream and chocolate chip ones are delicious. Always fresh! The employee was not very friendly. He didn’t seem thrilled to be there. Maybe he was having a bad day. I will be back for the cookies!”
