Very friendly and fast ....i will be back for sure ....i also had bread pudding alamode ?it was enough that 4 of us shared it ❤❤❤❤❤❤Update a friend and I ordered wings last night . She had never had the smoked wings before. We also got the bread pudding for dessert. It was fantastic. The wings as always were plump juicy and smoked to perfection. The side of bbq sauce was the cherry on the cake. I can't say enough about the quality. The bread pudding was delicious OMG . I AM A FOODIE/ GROUPIE AND I LOVE TURNING PEOPLE WHO LOVE GOOD WING ONTO MOMMAS. THANK YOU FOR EXCELLENT FOOD THAT NEVER DISAPPOINTS ?????5 HEAD RATING LOLOL*******************************Update 4/6/2024Very sad to say I had a bad food experience. I ordered wings green beans coleslaw and a side salad. The wings were SO salty it ruined them. The green bean were sweet?? Never have I ever had sweet green beans. The side salad was good. The slaw had to be old it had a sour outdated taste. I had diarrhea a few minutes after getting home. I'm not sure if I will ever be back to this location. Use to be one of my favorites. My waitress was very nice though.Parking: Be careful parking in Walgreens parking lot. They have tow away signs now . Also restricted on street parking loading zones 1 hour limit. A real pain !“

“Traveling with family out of state and we wanted to eat something that isn't available to us back home. Due to crowds at other restaurants, we found ourselves in the Long Horn parking lot with no wait time. I expected the average steakhouse experience but I was wrong! Wow, this was the BEST food I have ever eaten at a Long Horn restaurant. Our table had sirloins, lamb, chicken dishes. The lamb was absolutely tasty and tender on the bone and the mashed potatoes and spinach sides paired perfectly. Our meal did not disappoint.“

“This was a highlight of our trip. The food and service were amazing. They had a couple of big parties coming in soon but they made room for our family of 6.The wings were in my top 5 wings of all time. Smoked and still crispy was something I wasn’t expecting.We will be back!“

“I had to try their pulled pork and chicken this past weekend. It was top-Tier for sure, even in a carry-out situation. Their hot sauce was one of the best I've ever had, with a smokey sweetness that really set off their perfectly prepared meats.I'm looking forward to a dine in for my next visit.“

“When you don’t need to add sauce on your BBQ you know it’s exceptional!! Love the atmosphere the great customer service!! Mr. Bob and his team are amazing. Smells so good“

“Fast service, delicious food and friendly staff!“

“Friendly and fast! Spot on for what I wanted.“

“Good food, fun atmosphere!“

“The loaded tots and Pulled pork plate were delicious!“

“Man I was not expecting this place to be that good. I had Mark's along time ago. But this experience blew that one away. I got the wild Salmon Burger with pasta salad and a baked potato.The flavor was basic but yet really good. All the food was real light and the flavors were on point. The burger was so good and all the dressings on the burger were fresh. The aoli sauce had a great kick.Top 5 meal I've had this year. Would order this again in a heartbeat.“

“I recommend going for girls night out with friends. The food is a feast for the eyes as well as the stomach. The atmosphere is truly a one of a kind exercise.“

“Good neighborhood bar. We stayed at an airbnb across the street and y'all know the very best bar is a bar you can walk to. Great beer selection, good prices. The night I was there Buffalo Trace was $4! Music was ON POINT. We did order the food special of the night... some kind of siracha sausage sandwich and it was really underwhelming, but I think this probably just isn't a bar that's known for its food. For what it's worth, the onion rings were good and crispy. Not a big crowd on a Tuesday night in March, but I'd imagine it's hopping on the weekends.“

“Worth the drive to Botwood. Delicious burger and fries ❤“

“The owner and his staff are very friendly. The restaurant is really clean on the inside. The first time I ordered, I got a rib tip dinner with greens and Mac and cheese. The second time, I only ordered rib tips and one of the staff asked me did I want sides. I told them no because I had sides at home. I let them know that the Mac and cheese was not so great and the owner came out and apologized for that and gave me a free slice of cake to make up. I thought that was really nice of him. He told me that he appreciated my feedback. I still visit every weekend and I get rib tips, greens and potato salad now and a slice of cake but I gotta get it early before it sells out.“

“Our first time getting food from here. The pork BBQ was really good despite a few chunks of fay. They gave us regular, sweet and fire sauce. The bakes beans were delicious with a deep flavor, molasses maybe? If you want buns you have to ask. The price was very affordable, around $23.00. We will definitely be coming back.“

“I discovered the Shepherdsville location yesterday when I was searching for soup for lunch and was in that area. They (their deli) popped up on Yelp and WOW am I glad that I made that stop!! I am always on the lookout for beef tenderloin and other meats at a good prices and found them there. I didn't get one but their meat 'bundles' seem like a great value! They even trimmed up my tenderloin for me and cut it into gorgeous filets! This small, local business is doing it 100% right and it is now my go to meat market. Bye Bye K-word! :-)“

“Food is delicious & service is amazing.“

“Great food w/ Great prices I would definitely recommend..To Me The Best place for Barbecue“

“fish was excellent. same for smoked wings. great staff“

“good food, and good intent too, raises money for Mighty Oak Academy!“

“Wonderful experience every time I eat at Louisville Smokers. The Pit Master Chills attention to detail and Authentic smoke flavored and perfectly seasoned Meats are the best in Louisville KY. I highly recommend this place“

“Local dining that helps drive the community's economy! ?Staff has always been friendly any time I visit.Food is always tasty and fresh! ?*Fish sandwiches are always made to order so super fresh on those every time! *Worth every penny for amazing, fresh food from awesome local people! “

“First time going, definitely be back you got a try their Italian beef, their buffalo wings“

“The only reason I go so often is the steaks. The Rib-eye here is better than a Filet mignonVegetarian options: Pretty much the usual vegetables. The huge difference is T.R. uses fresh, never frozen, plus cut in larger sections.Wheelchair accessibility: Has 5 lowered sidewalks so you can park at more than 1 location. But if you've ever been, you know, finding an empty spot after 4 pm isn't easy.“
