Rude. Asked if they could accommodate 9 people outdoor, answer was no, maximum was 8. Asked about indoor, answer was no. No, sorry we can't. Obviously they don't need the business read more

Myself and 7 others ate here tonight and were very pleased. Everyone enjoyed their meal which included the steak and chips, crab cakes, chicken, and Brussel sprouts. I personally had the smash burger and I liked it however there was too much aioli sauce on the burger. I instantly had to grab my plate and napkin. I also had the red blend wine which good but honestly wasn't all that. The beginning of the sip was watery but the finish was a good red wine. I do want to note the steak is pre cut. The service and staff was very nice and accommodating. All staff were wearing masks and were sanitizing after every customer. I would eat here again. read more

This restaurant could compete with any large city restaurant and leave them in the dust: the menu is a one of a kind and you'll get something at 1816 you won't find anywhere else. Atmosphere was terrific and the background music was my favorite era and they didn't shy away from the early 80s rock. My food was cooked perfectly and the staff was quick and very friendly. A must place to eat if you visit Corydon. read more

Just passing through and saw this place. Very quaint atmosphere. Started with the fried green tomatoes. They were the best. Crunchy, with lettuce and sauce that was delicious. Husband had the smash burger. I tried it. It was off the chain. (Of course I had some.). I ordered the pork belly general tso. It was a burst of flavors. My husband loved it too. Will try the shrimp and grits next time. Highly recommend!! read more

WOW !!! Stopped for lunch today and had the Brussels for an appetizer. Very very good. Had garden salad and the presentation and flavor were outstanding. Jan had an arugula salad with goat cheese and it was excellent as well. read more

Traveled from Louisville to eat here after coming across this restaurant on open table. The restaurant is small but has an upstairs and outdoor tables for overflow (on weekends it seems). Every table was filled with reservations but 3 or 4 groups arrived without and were accommodated outside or upstairs. The cocktails were unique and tastey. The Goto Marg is now my favorite! My entire table of 5 raved about their entrées. Everyone's food arrived hot and at the same time. The staff was friendly and provided outstanding service. We will be returning! read more

Looking to try somewhere new, we went here after finding it on Yelp. We will definitely be back; there were several items on their (somewhat small) menu that we wanted to try! The egg rolls were a delicious appetizer, and the smash burger and General Tso's chicken were so good! The restaurant is small, so reservations are probably a good idea. read more

A must stop when in town. The food is off the charts. Fried green tomatoes are a great start to an amazing entree. Whether it's the best burger I've ever tasted (make sure to add the pork belly) or the elegance in the simplicity of the crispy chicken, you will be left clamoring for more. Not to worry for the ginger bread pudding is scrumptious but my favorite is the apple cheesecake. Hands down the most delicious cheesecake to touch my palate. read more

Best food in town! And excellent staff! I've had just about everything on the menu and absolutely no complaints. 10/10 recommend!

The most amazing meal. The menu is short and sweet but the food and drinks are unique nutritious and Devine. I was just passing thru but would eat here often!!! Highly recommend read more

Top notch restaurant from the ground up. Owners, staff, and especially the kitchen run by one of the best chefs in the business. Can't get enough. read more

We decided to support or local restaurants thru this time of Covid. We had not been to 1816 before so decided to give it a try. The bottom of my dinner was burned black, and the entire meal had a burnt taste. I through most of it in the trash. We will not be going back. One would think that restaurants would be going above and beyond to impress the customers that are patronizing them. Not true at 1816. read more

Driving through the area & found this amazing spot on Yelp. The Fried Green Tomato appetizer was delicious, crispy breading so good you won't leave a crumb behind. Thinly sliced apples and silky honey add a wonderful sweetness. My husband had the smash burger with fries , a great dish when you really want a burger, but the BLT was amazing. A sweet potato biscuit open faced sandwich that demands a fork & knife. Pork belly and fried green tomato topped with sunny side up eggs that were the color you know only comes from good quality. We were full but didn't want to pass up a taste of the ginger bread pudding with pumpkin bourbon leche. "Just have a bite", my husband said. HA! We fought over the very last bits. Great service and a cozy setting completed the experience. We don't live in the area but if we did we'd be regulars. read more

Went there Christmas Eve and so begins a Holiday tradition. Party of 11 all raved about food and service. Certainly will be back sooner rather than later. read more

We love this place. It has great atmosphere and the food is always amazing. The truffle fries or fries green tomatoes will have you hooked from the start. We've had the steak, the salmon, the meatloaf, and a special one evening--beef stroganoff. They were all delicious and beautifully plated. The flavors are something you can't quite put your finger on, but each dish is unique and tasty! This restaurant is not the kind of place I'd expect to find in Indiana. 1816 Modern Kitchen rivals some of the great Dallas and San Francisco restaurants we've been to. We are thankful to have a gem like this in Southern Indiana. We drive from 40 minutes away to enjoy it. read more

Small menu choice but EVERYTHING LOOKED GREAT& what we ordered tasted amazing. I can't wait to go back.

Such a fabulous little gem in Corydon! This was our first visit and we were just completely blown away. I definitely suggest caring for reservations as the dining area is small. We called and were seated within 5 minutes of our reservation time. The food is delicious. The poutine is unlike anything I've ever had and the shrimp and grits were fabulous. The gingerbread pudding.... oh my. Love at first bite. It was definitely worth the drive to try all these unique plates. :) read more

Outstanding as I expected great great food charming dinning room. 10 out of 10, wonderful meal and great service

Fantastic restaurant. Everything we ordered was outstanding! My husband ordered the fried green tomatoes for an appetizer...normally I don't even like tomatoes...but these were SO good that we were fighting over the last one. Our meals were also very delicious. Can't wait to visit again! read more

What a wonderful addition to Corydon, IN!! My son and I ate dinner here last night and it exceeded both our expectations. Swift and friendly service, and wonderful/delicious food. We started off with the Fried Green Tomatoes and they were just as delicious as everyone has said they were. I had the Shrimp & Grits and it was scrumptious and cooked to perfection. My son had the Steak-N-Chips - no need for salt or pepper or any sauce of any kind - the steak was cooked flawlessly and seasoned well. He said it just melted in his mouth. The fries were crispy and fun to eat with the fabulous dipping sauce. We will definitely be back! Thank you 1816...great job!! read more

I got the ramen and it had no flavor at all. I asked for hoisin sauce for it and the didn't even have that.

I went there last night with my husband and another couple. All four of us were incredibly impressed. We shared three starters, the poutine, fried green tomatoes and the brussel sprouts. My friend, Lee was in poutine heaven!! My husband said the fried green tomatoes were the best he had ever had and we all agreed the sprouts were also perfection! My only tiny criticism was that there was no bread to mop up the last bit of deliciousness!!! The waiter, Nick said we were allowed to lick our plates! For entrees we each chose something different so we could all have a bite. We had the crispy chicken, the cauliflower shrimps and grits, the venison meatballs and the fried haloumi. Again, everything was incredible and perfect. The margarita, which 3 of us had was definitely the best margarita we all had ever had. We had each of the desserts, the ginger bread pudding and the apple cheesecake which both were nectar on a plate. Service was prompt and courteous. I had the good fortune to speak to chef Scott outside at the end of service when he was grabbing a quick break. He came from the Exchange in New Albany another of my favorite restaurants. I think 1816 Modern Kitchen provides a much needed upscale restaurant in Corydon among the endless fast food and chains. We will all be regular customers and cannot wait to go for brunch and bloody marys. read more

My mom, sister and I decided to go to 1816 for a special girls' night out dinner. (We did not have reservations, but it was an early Thursday night and got the one table open.) We ordered two fried green tomato appetizers and split the fish special that night. Everything was wonderful! My husband and I made reservations for this past Friday evening, and he is still telling everyone about the cocktails he ordered--the old fashioned and southern iced tea. He says the old fashioned was the best he's ever had. He ordered the pork belly dish and I finally ordered the shrimp and grits after decided between that and the ramen, which looked wonderful at the next table over. I love shrimp and grits, and this was one of the best I've had. The sauce around the grits and the fried leeks on top were wonderful--plenty of sauce for the cauliflower grits and enough leeks for a bit of crunch with each forkful. We also had the fried green tomatoes with the excellent pimento cheese. Wish we'd made room for the apple cheesecake...maybe next time. My mom gave us a gift certificate for the next time we're in town. So excited to come back! (By the way, my husband wants to know who did that whiskey barrel wall and where he fans came from...both would look amazing until he sunroom we're planning to build.) read more

Too much hair in the salad. Social distancing wasn't happening in that place. And way expensive for crappy food. $5.00 for a bottle of Coors Light? read more

When I go to a new restaurant I always get a burger. If you can't do a burger right then I wonder if anything else will be good. 1816 killed it with the burger. The fried green tomatoes (which I am normally not a fan of) were excellent. The star of the show had to be the cheesecake. Hands down the best cheesecake I have ever had. Spoke with chef Scott who took the time to answer questions and talk about future plans. It was a pleasure talking with him. The staff was awesome. Will be going back again and again. read more

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. The food was delicious, the drinks were stout. It is very small so the menu is limited; you should check it out before you go. Hoping that they find great success here. read more

Not everyone is welcome here. We were excited to try and went in (didn't know about the reservation thing - maybe that made a difference). Two sets of patrons came in after we did and were served before us. One even left the building before we were served. They were busy (for a very small place) but there were tables available so they seated us. Started to feel unwelcome and almost left, but then our meal was delivered. We were the last patrons served during their lunch hours. Waitress was nice, but we were sad when we left. Never had that experience before. Maybe Corydon area country folk aren't welcome in this establishment. Food was good. read more

We were visiting friends in the area and had lunch here on Sunday. They live in the area but had not yet eaten here. So the 6 of us headed over. Soooo glad we did. We all extremely enjoyed the food. The decor was fun and comfortable. Staff was AMAZING, so sweet, attentive and interactive. A wonderful end to a work weekend and relaxed for the 6 hr drive home. Prices were worth it having the Sunday brunch, yummy. read more
