    It was our first visit. The menu was amazing although some of the food was slightly disappointing. Our appetizers were very good. Our friends who joined us loved their meals and loved the baklava dessert. Ultimately, our server spoiled the experience for us though. She was unfriendly, impatient, irritated, and too busy to check on us or listen to us which resulted in shrimp for my dish instead of the chicken I ordered.

    Had a great meal. Tried different foods and loved them all. Our server had some awesome recommendations. The Egyptian kitchen was amazing as was the goat cheese spread appetizer. So glad we chose to come. Will definitely be back the next time in Louisville.

    Yummy dishes. My husband's curry was very good. My Thai dish had egg noodles (not rice noodles as on the menu) and not enough peanut sauce but it was still good. Our waitress was very good! We really enjoyed the brie with honey and as always, portions are huge.

    Excellent food coupled with excellent service. I come to Louisville every 3 months and I always eat at Ramsi’s and have never been disappointed. The menu is extremely diverse and everything is cooked to your liking. One of the few places where prices are still affordable. Well done!

    The food was alright. I think most of my party enjoyed the food, but mine was just alright. We got seated and our waitress took 15 minutes to greet us. We ordered as soon as she came to the table with water. After ordering me asked for straws for our water and she took another 10 minutes to bring those, even though we already had some because we walked to the bar to grab them (the bar was less than 5 feet away so she could have turned around and passed us some). After receiving our food it took her another 10 minutes to bring out extra sauces we asked for. My potatoes also came out cold, not even the center was warm. And then she didn’t come back for a long while to check on us. This was kind of underwhelming, I always hear really great things about this place. Maybe it was because it was Mother’s Day; but the place wasn’t really that busy.

    Food was fine. Drinks were good. Service was slow. The host that sat us said they were short staffed.
