Restaurants near Dr. John Lewis House

In town for NCAA volleyball tournament & made reservations for dinner with our teenage daughters. Both food and drinks were amazing and even the pickiest eater enjoyed her meal(empanadas). The presentation & service were just as excellent as the taste of the food. Hope we have a reason to return to Louisville so we can eat here again.

Food is unique and always satisfying! Elizabeth is the best server. Explains everything on the menu. Attentive. Valuable asset to this restaurant. ❤️

We are were in town for king of the bluegrass basketball tournament in Fairdale. The appetizer we had the tuna poke (10/10) We got a bottle of Treana Cab wine to have with our main course… My husband had the medallion filets and I had the 7 oz filet (med rare) We got cheesy potatoes and asparagus for sides to share. The portion sides are generous! Wow!!!!!! Everything was phenomenal .. and don’t even get me started on the bread with the beef mallow and garlic butter candle ….. Unreal! The service was top notch! We had reservations, and were greeted with smiles and quickly seated. Our table was cleaned and ready for each step of our experience. The atmosphere was warm, eclectic and welcoming. There was someone with his sax playing soft jazz Christmas music as well. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We will definitely be coming back (even though it’s a 2.5 hour drive) I MUST try the Lobster Bisque next time! We love good food and exceptional service ! Thank you for the experience!

This is a fantastic restaurant. The ambience is elegant, but old school although I have been here many times the food seems better than ever. It was very busy when we were there so the service was a little slow, but attentive and knowledgeable all the same. This is clearly a top five restaurant in Louisville 

Good food, beverage and service are a constant with Lou Lou in St Matthews.
