Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Jeffersontown

What can I say other than WOW! We are in from Indianapolis for the weekend and wanted some seafood. Open table recommended Brendon’s Catch 23 and we decided to give it a try. We were greeted immediately and seated at our table and our server Ross greeted us within 30 seconds. I of course liked him instantly because his name is from one of my shows, Friends. Ross is incredible! He knows everything about the entire menu as well as the cocktails. He guided us to the crab in warm butter with sourdough bread for the starter and it is divine! Definitely order that! I have an obsession with Cauliflower steak and it was really good. I loved how they seasoned it with steak seasoning. It had a small warm green salad and a corn and bean side to accompany. I really liked this dish. My husband had the shrimp and grits and it was delicious. Perfectly cooked and tender shrimp but it was a lot of food! Definitely a dish that could be shared. We were given 2 corn bread muffins with a honey cinnamon butter that was the perfect accompaniment to our dishes. I ordered the Beignets for dessert and if you get anything GET THOSE! They were perfectly cooked , crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. They Came with two dipping sauces, and we’re so large we took two home! Ross even brewed a fresh pot of decaf for me as I love coffee with my dessert. Ross was very attentive to our dining needs and really made us feel welcome. He always had a smile on his face every time I saw him and he truly went above and beyond and made our dining experience even more enjoyable. Thank you Ross for the incredible time and for making us feel like Friends!!!! We Will definitely be back and asking for Ross!  

This Bistro was perfect! Amazing bourbon menu and the food was delicious. They were also very accommodating to our needs. Nice music touch and quaint atmosphere to actually talk amongst our group.

This was TRULY the best experience at a restaurant that our group has ever had. Our waiter, Daniel, was an absolute star. He was fantastic- attentive but not pushy, kind, excellent at his job, and just all around the best. The food was unbelievable. We had a variety of seafood, steak, and drinks and it was ALL incredible. Kudos to the chef on all fronts. You also can’t beat the views of the Ohio River! Gorgeous ambiance- sit on the deck if you can! All around 5 stars!!

The wait time for less than 5 minutes for out table. The staff was attentive and polite. Chloe suggested and recommended several items on the menu and it was not disappointing. For drinks we had Kentucky martini and a Kentucky lemonade. Both were great! If you don’t like rye whiskey, this is not for you! I loved it. On to the food, appetizer was boom boom shrimp and wontons. The shrimp was tastefully made and you can savor the seasoning. The wontons were good but not as great as the shrimp. We had seafood trio. Flavorful and plenty! Also had the chicken and shrimp pasta. Definitely a lot of food and the taste was phenomenal. Tonight did not disappoint!
