    It's The Burger For The Louisville Burger Week & Fries.
    David D.

    The Service Is Amazing. The Food Super Melts In Your Mouth. The Ambiance Is Perfect. They Had A Person Is Perfect Of Being Multi-Talented With Doing Singing, Playing The Piano & The Guitar. He Sang Beautifully. He Did All Of My Favorites.

    I love the space, nice greenery, dim lighting, cool vibe. Not too busy on a Saturday before festival. Our hotel was about 17 mins from the Expo. Ordered mimosas and sunrises to start. Let me just say for $6 that mimosa is like half the bottle lol - great deal. Ordered a hash brown bowl, scrambled eggs w cheese, and your choice of sausage or bacon. Pretty good, I like that the hash browns were cooked with peppers and onions, bacon was crispy but felt cheap. Overall, it lacked salt and I felt I could've cooked it at home and faster with better quality bacon. My husband said his standard breakfast was cold. Friends BLT was good, however for the wait we expected house cut fries not frozen Krystal burger fries. Overall, the staff was attentive and friendly, nice ambience, just slow with food coming out cold.

    Walked in and sat right down for a Friday evening! Staff friendly. Restaurant clean! Server was quick to get our drinks and get app in! Everything tasted great and was hot when it came out! Haven't been here in over two years , and we will definitely be back!!

    Well organized Christmas Eve brunch with holiday vibes. Even Santa was there! Loved my mango mimosa. And breakfast was amazing. It was our first brunch experience here (normally we go for dinner) and can't wait to return!

    We have eaten carryout from Cask before, but this was our first time eating in. We came for burger week, and the southern comfort burger did not disappoint. We also shared a basket of fried pickles and each tried one of the special drinks. The food was excellent. The pickles were sliced small, which makes them easier to enjoy. The sauce that came along was good enough to require a second helping, which was supplied without hesitation. The drinks were absolute stars. We had a blackberry smash, made with Jack Daniels, blackberry, and mint, a Buffalo Trace cream soda, and a gin-based Arnold Palmer that was the highest recommended by the staff. Service is fantastic, with just the right level of attention. We will return!

    this is the worst restaurant I have ever been to. the fried pickles were super greasy. the devil eggs were average and tasteless. I got the short ribs which were tasteless and fatty. the mashed potatoes were cold. the gm brought me some hotter ones but tasted like oatmeal. the chicken and waffles were cold and the tenders were super small. the cream brulee tasted like something you get in a cafeteria in middle school. the GM "cc" was fantastic and helped out. this was the worst restaurants I've ever been to. they will go out of business. thank God it was free from Xmas gift cards. I would never pay for this crap. everything we got was lukewarm to cold. four thumbs down. the salads were ok.

    Stopped in for my favorite.. salty short ribs and extra garlic mashed potatoes- just a perfect combo!!! And oh how I have missed it. My phone didn't eat cause I forgot it even existed. It was placed on the table and well... I devoured it. Soooooo good. Tender. Buttery... creamy.. salty and savory... mmmmh. Y'all better get up on it.

    I love the feel of this place, with the plants hanging down and the service being quick and friendly, you cannot go wrong with eating here. My boyfriend and I came here for my birthday lunch and they did not disappoint. Not pictured-- fried green tomatoes but absolutely delicious, ate them before I could snap a picture. Everything we ate was so good! Cannot go wrong here.

    The food was pretty average but it wasn't bad. I would come here again but it wouldn't be my first choice

    Great spot with plenty of seating and a great selection! They have burgers, shrimp and grits, salads, short ribs, and a wife variety of sides. If you can't find something here, you're not trying. Service is prompt and they take good care of you. Love it here!

    Newly opened restaurant in Jtown, close to the center of the square and across the from Recbar…read more First thing to know - they have chicken and salad with chicken, but they do not have burgers. Their burgers are "chicken" burgers or veggie. The promotion of burgers is confusing and a little disappointing. Chicken tender combos come with fries, one side and drink. The chicken burger was also tenders but tossed on a bun with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and mayo. Several sauces are offered for dipping your chicken. The combo #1 was a good value. The tenders were hot and had enough peppering to make the flavor interesting. We enjoyed the fries, which reminded us of eating at school ballparks. Sides are small but offer a few bites and I liked the slaw (although it looked different than the menu image). My husband shared the green beans were peppery. My Fanta lacked flavor. The chicken burger was enjoyed by my son but since he didn't really want the toppings, he basically had the same meal as my combo #1 for more money and without the side. Service was helpful and polite. We appreciated them checking on us and being willing to offer recommendations. They have plenty of parking in a private lot and several tables inside. Cute decor. When walking in, the space didn't smell great -- likely a plumbing issue because it otherwise appeared very clean and organized. Drive thru also available. I'd come back for a quick bite of chicken tenders or pick up, but the ambience doesn't quite hit for it being at the top of our family hang out.

I love the salad dressings and instead of having it put on the bowl, I request 2-3 containers on the side. Overall the line moves quickly and each topping is a good portion. Chicken is my preferred protein alongside feta cheese, cranberries, pickled cabbage, spicy broccoli, and cucumbers. I'd recommend getting the larger bowl. Seating is available inside and out. Taking the order to go is a great option too.

The colorful, fun signage actually made me feel more at ease, especially since "build-your-own" spots can feel a little overwhelming at first. I appreciated that they also had pre-made menu options for those of us who don't want to think too hard. I went with the Chicken Chipotle + Tortilla broth, and my boyfriend ordered a steak bowl, both were fresh, flavorful, and honestly hit the spot. Service: Smooth and welcoming Food: Fresh, healthy, and well-seasoned Environment: Clean, bright, and easy to navigate Now, the total came to $34.81, which is a bit on the pricier side, but in today's economy, that's becoming the norm. And for where I am in my health journey, being intentional about what I put into my body matters more than anything. For me, it was worth it. The Verdict: Worth it for a fresh, healthy option, especially when you want something quick but still aligned with your goals. If you're in the Louisville area, I'd definitely recommend checking out this spot, it's the only one here, and it delivers.

    09/02/2026 We had 25 Residents from Swan Pointe join us…read moretonight at Lou Lou in Middletown. We were greeted at the door and shown where our group was sitting. We were all really looking forward to this night. Our server was Deanna B. and she was a very hard worker! When we got to the table she was already pouring ice waters and taking beverage orders. The tables were filling up. We had so many people that that they had to seat 4 of us in the section right below the upper level. It worked out perfectly because two of us use canes and this way, we didn't have to climb the steps. The General Manager, Tom Legge, came over to our table and introduced himself to us. He brought us ice water and took our beverage orders. He went over some of the menu items with us. I had looked at the menu ahead of time and decided that the Hot Brown was exactly what I wanted. My husband loves Hot Browns but he also loves Pizza so he ordered a 10" Hot Brown Pizza for his dinner. A friend at the table with me ordered a Hot Brown also and her husband ordered Linguine and it came with 5 huge meatballs. Tom went ahead and turned in our orders so that we would be able to get our food a bit earlier. Meanwhile, Deanna was taking orders at the upper tables. She did an excellent job. She took 21 orders and got those turned in to the kitchen. Most of their orders were Shrimp & Grits, Chicken Carbonara, and Crab Cakes. Quite a few more ordered the Hot Brown. It didn't take much time before the GM brought out our entrees. Our Hot Browns were beautiful! A Louisville classic! There were layers of roasted turkey, laid upon on a slice of Brussétta bread, topped with smoked bacon, and tomatoes and covered with mornay sauce. Oh my! It was delicious. My husband's 10" Hot Brown Pizza was beautiful and was made on Pizza crust. It was really good, but after my husband tasted my Hot Brown, he decided that he liked the Hot Brown a bit better. Our other friend that was at the table with us ordered the Linguine and it came with 5 meatballs- in fact they were huge meatballs. It was served with Marinara sauce. He really thought it was good, but could only eat about 3/4 of it, so he took the remainder of his meal home with him. GM Tom talked the four of us into sharing the Bread Pudding that was topped with a Caramel Glaze. It was a perfect size for the four of us to top off our meal. We had a great time and I was very glad to find a restaurant with a 5 Hot Brown! Robyn

Deciding what to order was another story. I let my indecision rule the day and went with the Bayou Sampler, along with an appetizer of Boudin Balls. Jambalaya, Gumbo, Red Beans and Rice, and Étouffée, with a side of dirty rice, now that's a lot of Cajun goodness! I knew there was no way I could eat it all in one sitting, so I paced myself. I started with just one of the three excellent Boudin Balls and saved the other two for later. When the sampler arrived, it smelled incredible. I enjoyed everything, but if I had to rank them, the Étouffée was definitely my favorite, followed by the Jambalaya, Gumbo, and then Red Beans and Rice. And just to be clear, everything was good! That's simply my personal ranking. I also have to mention the excellent piece of alligator sausage that came with the Red Beans and Rice. That was a nice bonus. I rounded out the meal with a cold glass of red ale...or maybe two. And I can't forget to mention the bartenders. All three provided excellent service and helped make the evening a thoroughly enjoyable experience. I filled up my to go box and headed out the door satisfied. I definitely won't wait so long before returning to Lou Lou!
