Ellen took such great care of us. Service in general was amazing. Great sense of teamwork amongst staff to see the guests through start to finish. Well done. Get the truffle fries, Brussels sprouts, short ribs and gnocchi! Everything was amazing

I wanted to dock a star for not having cranberry juice for my cocktail, but I couldn’t. The food was unbelievable and the service was top notch. Maddie (please excuse my spelling) was fantastic. She was super attentive and one of the most pleasant servers we’ve had in a long time. The food was dynamite, like the “stop in your shoes when you take a bite” type food. It was unreal. We travel a lot from Pittsburgh, PA and are always looking for that local gem. This is it. You will not regret it. For reference, we got fried artichoke hearts for a starter and the lamb chops and braised short ribs for our meal. Just, WOW! It was unbelievably fantastic.

5 stars. Amazing date night location if you like high quality food with unique flavors and great service. One of our favorite restaurants in Louisville. Definitely recommend going for your birthday.

My family took me here to celebrate my graduation, and it turned into such a memorable experience. The staff went above and beyond—they wrote me a personalized card and surprised me with a complimentary dessert. It was such a thoughtful gesture that truly touched me. The atmosphere was warm, the service was attentive, and the kindness they showed made an already special day even more meaningful.

Lively place with delicious food. We ordered all the appetizers and they were all amazing. I do have to say the baked goat cheese was one of the most delicious things I've eaten in a while.

Every worker we conversed with was very pleasant, the bathrooms were very clean, and we did not feel crowded. All my food was wonderful and absolutely delicious, EXCEPT the Brussels sprouts. I was terribly disappointed, they were soaked in balsamic to the point that was all you tasted and they were almost unpalatable. My fiance ate them anyway because they were 15, but I would absolutely never suggest this item to anyone. The other food was divine tho; I thought the lamb chops were 10/10, absolutely wonderful.

Fantastic restaurant with creative cuisine with Mediterranean flair. Enjoyed the “gecko” cocktail, the famous lamb ribs highly recommended. Feta cheese appetizer, Brussels sprouts and scallops are awesome. Leave room for dessert.

My wife and I tried two different cocktails, two different appetizers, and two different mains. All of it was phenomenal. Gonna go see if I know anyone who rated it four stars and talk them up to a fifth so I can say I gave it a 6. So obscenely good.
