“Had a pharmaceutical event there today and the service was top notch ! Great food and the drinks are fantastic 🍷“

“Tonight was our first time at 80/20 Kaelin's and we'll definitely come back. I had the fried chicken and brussel sprouts. Both were excellent but especially the brussel sprouts. Our waiter was phenomenal. I didn't get his name but he was a red haired gentleman. Not only did he make sure we always had what we needed but he kept us laughing. From his favorite football team, to getting cut off by a Packers fan, to what he does (other than being a waiter) for a living. The laughs didn't stop!! That, to me, is priceless. I hope he reads this and knows how much he was appreciated tonight. ❤️“

“The best fast food restaurant in all of Louisville!! 💯“

“The Highland Not Brown was fabulous!! Perfect for breakfast or lunch.“

“The food is so good. The owners are great people. My 2026 goal is to support this business more. My only regret is I wish I’d bought a 2nd burger for later“

“So…. This giant was standing in front of the building shouting across the street at me about how this place had the best burger in town. So I calmly said I would be back to talk about it. Went to the cross walk and waited for the light and bee bopped my happy butt back up there to speak with him. He went on to claim that the double Colorado with bacon and fried egg was the best burger ever. Hmmm. We will see about that. Long story short….. after a short wait I was presented with this huge nasty good looking 🍔 burger. Geeeeezus. It was some kind of yum. And the fries with rosemary, garlic, and olive oil. Wow. Anyway. Now I’m stuffed. Very good burger. It’s a belly full. Will be back for another one. Oh yeah….. If the giant had not been on the sidewalk showing such enthusiasm for the burgers, I would have never Even noticed the place. Congrats to the big guy. 👍😀“

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

“I want to say no, I don't remoend so this hot spot stays low key, but I cant, this place is amazing! Old school tavern feel in an old building, sports TV and laid back feel. Best...the food is amazing and I can't wait to come back and try another dish. My new favorite place while in Louisville.“

“Stopped in to this place before a concert - it was fantastic! I can’t stop thinking about the Mozzarella sticks!! The burger and sweet potato fries were delicious as well. Highly recommend!“

“Upon walking in @grindburgerkitchen I immediately caught the vibe - new age, hole in the wall burger joint with some killer artistic flair. The ambiance was welcoming and perfectly slow for a Wednesday evening. My good friend Nate and I sat down and conversed over some of the best food I’ve ever had in Louisville. I pulled out my supplies and begin to draw and paint. In his collaborative style, Nate began to snap a few candid photos as I created. Slowly the waitresses notice my work and send a compliment. I explained more about the piece and how I’d like to trade when the General Manager introduces herself and peeks at the piece. She seems quite excited and runs to the back to find something to trade me for the art - a pink disco cup. Thank you, Grind Burger for the amazing food & friendly faces. We’ll be back!“

“We always have a great time here.“

“Rhonda was our waitress and she was very nice and helped with any questions we had! We had the veggie omelette and the meat lovers omelette. Both were great! The house fries and biscuits and gravy were great too. We can’t wait to come back and try more!“

“We had a large party and called ahead for seats/reservation and walked in with our seats ready upstairs. Our waitress was amazing and the food was great. Our party ordered different items so we could all try their variety. Every plate was great especially if you like smoked meats. Our food came out quick for a party of 12 and all of our orders correct. If you like a cookout/smoked meats type of food, I would highly suggest you try this place. The only downside to this restaurant which is not their fault is the parking, so plan ahead and possibly a walk. If you know Germantown area then you will know about the parking.“

“Gotta be one of the best burgers I’ve ever eaten hands down.“

“Trey was very nice. He was nice and our food was out super fast. We went to walk up because we don't like the automated order taker.“

“We had an event at Upland, in their large banquet room, last week, and it was not a simple set up or take down for us. Anna and the team at Upland allowed us enough access, beforehand, to transform the room into something spectacular. The appetizers and meals were top notch, served buffet style, with beef, chicken, salads, vegetables, potatoes, vegetarian skewers and more. The staff worked hard to accommodate us and the guests were all happy with the food and how we had set everything up. The were a few hiccups, like the bar having limited choices for guests. It was that there were not choices, but better known brands were unavailable, though their own brands were (and some were pretty good). Also, the staff was so stealthy, that we didn’t realize dinner had been served. We also weren’t sure how to turn some lights on when it got darker outside. Those negatives did not have an affect on the overall party and how it was received, though. I give the an 9 out of 10, knowing that those things wouldn’t happen again.“

“A classic for Kentuckiana for fast food and soft serve sherbet! 🍦❤️“

“Great spot“

“While it is true that bugs tend to get inside frequently, I thought the food and hospitality were great!“

“I absolutely love emmysquared pizza! Yummy for lunch or dinner. Our server, Shannon Scanlan, did an excellent job! I recommend it to my friends.“

“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.“

“I’ve never wanted to write a positive review so quick in my entire life!! I heard about this place through TikTok earlier today and I just had to try it! I don’t have a car so I DoorDashed it and the burger went above expectations! It was juicy it was flavorful. The fries were amazing. Please support this burger joint!! You will not be disappointed! The only thing that would make it better is if I could eat inside!!“

“Received EXCELLENT service from Chris & Lisa …showed up at the window at the last minute & could have easily turned me away but instead was kind enough to serve me with a smile! Cant say enough how much I appreciate awesome workers & they are the BEST! Would recommend 100%“

“seriously the nicest people and most delicious food!“

“This place is wonderful. The food is delicious, from the burgers to the shakes. You can do a lot of variations on your burger as well. It also seems to be popular with everyone- children and families, high school students, adults, and the elderly. (You can click on my profile for a full review.)“

“I was visiting my son and grandson and we went to drakes last night. I had never been before but I can’t wait to go again. First and foremost I wish I’d have gotten the name of our server. She was the best I’ve ever had! She was so kind and attentive and I hope management will recognize her for the gem she is! The food was amazing as well! I ordered the tempura shrimp and it was delicious! I also ordered the crab rangoon roll and it was so good! My whole family loved everything they ordered! I wish you could open a drakes in the Illinois quad cities! Thank you for a nice dinner!!“

“The Rallys on 22nd and Broadway in louisville, ky has the best crew. The Management there was great. I think her name is Ms. Regina she help me when they forgot a my fry she fixed it and was very nice. Her crew are the friendly at any one that I have been at. The food was hot and I will be back at the one on 22nd.“

“The “tronuts” will make your eyes roll back in your head! Absolutely addictive! You’ve been warned. Plus the owners are lovely friendly folks!“

“The Spicy Burger is the best! Jalapeños and spicy pickles are an awesome combination! Add the seasoned spicy fries, it’s a great combo! Katie made an awesome burger!“

“I came in not expecting much. Sometimes Dixie Highway locations are beat up and you don't expect to be treated too well. But let me tell you! This five guys blew me away! Greetings at the door for every customer! Speedy service! Delicious food! Very clean environment! I even walk into the bathroom and am in shock at how clean it was! Whoever is running this store deserves all the praise they can get! Haven't had exceptional service like this in a long time!“

“Ok Bambi bar. Your pictures of what you call a fantastic cheese burger lured me in!

Here’s the skinny. It was good on the one bite scale. 7.2 all day. Onions were on point and if I am getting down to it the wand soft drink was good. That’s more unusual than anything else.

Atmosphere 5/5. Now remember this is a dive bar. Please do not confuse cleanliness with atmosphere. Again repeat it with me. Dive Bar. Ok with that said it was not gross or anything but I would never go to McDonald’s and expect 5 Guys. I think that’s fair personally.

To summarize if I lived in the area I would happily pop in here over fast food any day other than week. I probably would not drive 45 minutes to try it. However put a pin in it and when you’re on Bardstown road for lunch drop in. Or if you a partying extra hard and need to sober up I think they got you. Or get more beer I ain’t your parent. Cheers!“

“Spencer and Ellis are stupid amazing food came out so fast and accurate. They are A1 employees tip tf out of them“

“10/10 every time! The new ordering system is so quick and you get your food quickly. It’s always hot, fresh, and delicious. Staff are super friendly too! We love you Steak N Shake❤️“

“The best place to watch sports and eat good food and drink good drinks.“

“I live very close to here and my kids like to go over just to run around.. there is tons of open space and seating on the covered patio n outside area. I have eaten at Jeffs doughnuts, Bandits pizza and Bunz burgers (I haven't eaten here since Bunz has moved to this location but Im quite sure its the same delicious food) and all 3 are super delicious. Jeffs doughnuts is kinda pricey.. for a doughnut i mean and Bandits pizza and Bunz burgers has very reasonable pricing. I would definitely recommend trying this place out. I will for sure be back to try all of the other restaurants.“

“Delicious hand patted burger and the brioche bun was perfectly toasted. I had the Southend burger, which came fully dressed with patties and a fried egg!. The fries were nicely seasoned and plentiful. Meal includes your choice of different flavored lemonades. I got the watermelon, but would prefer a diet option because it was super sweet. We will definitely return!“

“We just came in from Minnesota, Toya was our bartender. She was amazing!! Friendly, fun, energetic and fun. I asked her if she had a specialty shot we could try and she enthusiastically said “yes”! She made us a “snow cone shot”. It was AMAZING!!!! Super yummy and delicious. I told her she should call it “The Toya Snow Cone Shot”. Very fun atmosphere with good people. Highly recommend.“

“This place has literally been part of my life for over 30 years.“

“Ice cream is so good! And an amazing selection of items“

“My Husband and I were there Monday ,March the 16th and I can't say enough about Tasha M.She was the best waitress,Very on top of her job..Mark Feed Store has the best BBQ ribs and bone in wings..We will be back..“

“The Hangover is such a delicious sandwich! We love all the great events they throw here and the staff is so cool!“

“EXCELLENT! Possibly the best burger in Louisville. I no longer support the shady, silly business practices of “Weekend Burger” so we were THRILLED to find a place EVEN BETTER! This place is AWESOME!“

“Today was my first time here with my fiancé. I ordered the smoked wings ( flats) with fries and the bartender, Jessica, suprised me with a new drink called " the killer kool- aid). Everything was delicious, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. I loved the atmosphere as well. We will be returning like ASAP.“

“This location is so much better for the good, Drive up is faster, new paint, new furniture and a new attitude.

My breakfast today was awesome, Biscuits with gravy $4 is a good deal though it was dollar more for OJ. Food was all hot and fresh.“
