Great experience...food, service, atmosphere all top notch. Live music helped create a great atmosphere, and still allowed good conversation within our group of ten. The seafood tower and tomahawk steak were adequately split between 3-4. Sides were large enough portions to share among the table. Good selection of bourbons as well.

Where do I even begin...from the moment I stepped foot into the restaurant I felt like royalty. The hosts, servers, bartenders, and General Manager were all top notch, professional, and extremely welcoming. I had the bacon burger and several bourbon cocktails which were all delicious. They brought out a complimentary appetizer, which was bread with a burning edible candle caked in the middle! They had live music and the vibe was immaculate. Thank you all for a wonderful experience—I can tell the GM is running a tight ship. Ugo, thanks for two of the best cocktails I’ve ever had—keep doing your thing man. I just might make a trip back to Louisville for y’all!

My wife and I were attending the GAMA convention at the nearby Kentucky International Convention Center. After checking in to the hotel and registration for the event, we stopped in here for supper. They had a special deal for a 78-ounce Tomahawk designed for sharing. We ordered it medium rare along with Mac and Cheese for our first side and Glazed Carrots for our second side. It took a while to come out, but it is a huge steak. The sides are some of the best I've ever had. This location is highly recommended!

Absolutely wonderful! The bread with the butter and herb candle is genius! The bread is soft and soaks up the butter. There's nothing soggy; just a delectable, flavorful buttery bite! The meatball appetizer was delicious! It also comes with garlic sliced bread for dipping in the marina. We had stopped for a dessert but found this to be a date night venue for us! The class, the music, and the fine dinging food are exquitely remarkable. Enjoyed the presentation of the food as much as we did the food itself. Steak and Bourbon, congrats, you have out done yourself! The live jazz and blues music are tasteful, soothing, and enjoyable. If you haven't stopped in, you're in for a treat when you do!

The food was genuinely so delicious I have no other way to describe it. The bread they brought out with a butter/beef tallow candle was amazing. I had a 7oz fillet with mashed potatoes and the others was a 10oz fillet with the Mac and cheese.

Went on a Monday evening with a reservation for 4. The service was great! AJ was our server. Extremely professional and knowledgeable. Most of us got filets and several sides that we split. We got carrots, Brussel sprouts, baked potato, mashed potatoes, all were delicious. We got a half dozen oysters as an appetizer, they may have been my favorite part of the meal. So yummy and a beautiful presentation. We got the Giddy Up to drink, which is the espresso martini - GREAT! Lincoln’s Manhattan was good as well. I will definitely be back.

Fantastic fine dining restaurant spot visited last night. Food was delicious and was perfect in every way. The ambiance is nice for any occasion or romantic night out. There was live music that not overly loud, which was a plus. Shout out to our amazing waitress Alex who was attentive , friendly and a professional who suggested good burbon recommendations and demonstrates high class customer service skills. Worth the wait to get in and highly recommended.
