    The food was great and the interior has a warm, cozy ambience. We did wait almost an hour for our food because they gave our order to another table. The manager comped our meal, which was very kind. Unfortunately nobody told our waiter, so he chased us into the street saying we forgot to pay.

    Maybe my favorite spot in LouKY??! The food is always on point, and the cocktails are delicious. I love the intimate ambience where I can have a fun conversation with friends.

    My third trip in as many months. It is not surprising that North of Bourbon earned a place in the New York Times list of the 50 best restaurants in the nation!

    The catfish was great. The gumbo and shrimp noodles were over salted, funky, and strange. Service was inconsistent. Bourbon choice impressive but we went for the food so we’re highly disappointed

    Food selection was broad; however, the quality was less than desirable. The service was top tier and the atmosphere was wonderful.

    Great atmosphere. Wonderful dinner. The Caesar salad was tangy and unique. The potato wedges were perfectly crisp on the outside. And the jalapeno mayo added a delicious kick.

    Everything was exceptional, especially our waiter and the service. The food was even better than expected! ❤️ The only thing I would recommend is getting a few bottles of Pouge Bourbon…with it being registered #3 distillery in Kentucky we were surprised the bar didn’t carry any. The heirs of this bourbon are some wonderful folks, I’d also recommend reaching out to them and inviting them to come dine with you. I know we will definitely be back!

    The place for cutting edge cuisine. Every single thing is top shelf. The dining experience is enhanced via a complementary bourbon choice . We persevered to get a reservation but totally worth cashing in a portion of your IRA.
