    This was our second time dining at Steak & Bourbon and I have to say this has been our favorite dining experience in Louisville! Our server was attentive, hospitable and excellent! For drinks, my wife ordered the Bourbon Smash and I ordered a Blue Moon. Our dining experience began with bread that was salted perfectly with a house made butter candle nestled in the middle. This alone is an impressive start to our date night! Then we ordered the Steak and Cheese Hand Pies which were the perfect combination of flakey crust, steak, cheese and sauce! Our server had refilled our beverages and reset our utensils between each plate. The biggest decision of the evening, which steak to choose? We both ordered the center cut filet, I went for the 10 oz and she ordered the 7 oz, both with Au Poivre sauce. Our side was the Shepherd's Pie. Everything was perfectly cooked, tender and we ended our dining experience more than satisfied! We can't wait for our next visit to Steak and Bourbon!

    I have celiac disease and hence am gluten intolerant. The manager came by and sat down with me to go over the menu and discuss options for me. First time this has ever happened. Also, we had a hearing impaired person in our party and asked the waiter to have the music turned down in our area and they cheerfully complied and asked how the new level was. Super pleased with their attentiveness!

    One of our favorite spots in Louisville! It’s very casual, but the food is sophisticated. The staff is very knowledgeable, and attentive. They have a nice range of gluten free options marked on the menu. Love the dates, lamb, crab cakes and desserts!

    It's one of my favorite restaurants. The servers are always amazing and so friendly. Their fried chicken is amazing. Last time I got the grilled cheese but added on pulled pork and it was one of the best sandwiches of my life. I wish I could remember our servers name because he was awesome and would ask for him every time if I could. He recommends the best stuff always and even when a girlfriend and I stayed longer than normal talking he was so nice and told us to take our time. 20/10 recommend to any and everyone
