Best Southern American Restaurants in New Albany

Every time I stay in Louisville, I eat at Doc Crows. Food is excellent and it has a great vibe. Service and staff are always so friendly.

My wife and I enjoyed Valentine's Day dinner at The Village Anchor and were seated in the covered patio area below. The food was great but a little pricey. French Onion Soup could have been hotter and we found a lack of saltiness to everything but not terrible. The wine was reasonable and they didn't try to upsell. The dessert was huge - really enjoyed that. Friendly staff top to bottom. I had trouble finding reservations for V-Day and this place was busy but not packed at all. The lighting in the covered porch area did not at all reflect a fine dining experience, though - which killed a bit of the ambiance despite the cute Valentine's decor. Overall a good experience and we'll return if I have an extra $200 but for that kind of money I know we could do better. I look forward to brunch as their menu promises a variety of great looking option.

This was our first visit and it was outstanding all the way around. The staff, including the owner, was super friendly and welcoming. We’ll be going back and taking friends. Lastly, it was nice to have dedicated parking in an area of town where parking can sometimes be hard to find

Get a burger! We enjoyed the 80/20 burger with fries, dark meat chicken with potatoes and biscuit and gravy and a side of onion rings. Our physicians may not approve of that meal but our taste buds and bellies were happy. My husband and I like to order and share so I had a taste of everything. We both thought the burger was the star of the show but enjoyed everything very much. The chicken has a lot of breading and it was seasoned well and super crispy, the biscuit was fluffy and the gravy was well seasoned. The onion rings were well balanced with breeding and a generous portion. The only issue is that I like fries and onion rings fresh from the fryer and I think they came from under a heat lamp. The service was the very best part! As we were still placing our order the onion rings came out to the table, they have an electronic ordering system. There was so much staff working together that everything ran smoothly and quickly. Their Happy Hour can't be beat! We each had two drinks and my cocktail definitely packed a punch at a very reasonable price. We will definitely return to enjoy more of their menu and the Malt Shop attached to the restaurant.

Enjoyed a delicious dinner at Sway, perfect spot before heading down to the Louisville Palace for a show!
