    Tri Tip Steakhouse bowl
    Hannah M.

    First time in! Very good. Service was quick. Staff was friendly. Regular size bowl was plenty for me. Hummus was good. Several different teas and lemonades to choose from. Clean restaurant. Definitely a healthier option if you are out! We will definitely be back

    Chicken Tortilla & Chipotle Both Bowl $12.45
    Tonais B.

    We were originally on our way to grab coffee, but the name CoreLife Eatery caught my attention & I'm glad it did. Walking in, I immediately noticed how clean and inviting the space was. 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.

    Burned up Korean Brussels Sprouts

    I don't understand. I pay 20 dollars for a very shitty meal. If you didn't have the Brussels sprouts you could've just substituted or something instead of giving me the burned up crumps left over. Also my order was missing a whole other item. Terrible.

    Reunited with my favorite fast casual spot. I wish there were corelife eatery's all over the country! Went with my go-to spicy Thai chicken and rice noodles and it hit as I remember. So many great bowl options though, you probably can't make a bad choice. They even have wraps now! Service was a bit slow because they were busy.

    Love this place! So many options to choose from, I had trouble narrowing it down. But decided on the Korean BBQ pork today. Very flavorful and full of delicious ingredients-- even a freshly fried egg! Clean place, comfortable seating, very welcoming. Service was quick, but friendly. Not to mention they were jammin' to a Bieber playlist and I'm fully in support

    Always fresh. Their quality of protein is good. We didn't love our salads today but we just weren't a fan of our choice with the rice noodles. Service was fast & friendly & it's always open & bright inside. The women's bathroom was clean & smelled good. Tip- Add double protein of choice.

    I came here on a Friday for lunch for a solo date. This is a very popular lunch spot so be prepared to wait a little. Although the line was long, it was moving fairly fast so wasn't an issue at all. I appreciated the pictures of some of the food that was displayed and how helpful the staff was with answering questions. I went with the Korean BBQ option because I wanted something warm. It did not disappoint! I got the regular sized bowl and that was more than enough (could have definitely shared this). Here are my #WorthyNotes - Fresh food and healthy options - Make sure you know if your meal is warmed or not - If you don't see something you would like, create your own!

    Alot of food at a good price! I did a pickup of a regular bowl and after taxes and tip it came out to $15, however there was easily enough food for two people so I was not upset at all! The ingredients were fresh and you could tell things are prepared daily. I really enjoyed the flavors from my bowl. It made me feel like it was a healthier version of qdoba at about the same price point! I did a Togo order so I can't attest to inside much but the workers were polite & quick when I came in. I will be back!

    Build your own large bowl.  This visit 7/10.

    I love the food, atmosphere is ok, I mainly purchase to go buy i had a little time so i dined on. I usually visit 2-3 times a month because live in Taylorsville so only when I'm near. The food is always fresh but the rice noodles are usually frozen and that's my favored ingredient. I did ask the young man if he could warm them for me and he said NO, I looked and nothing was on the grill , he could have warmed it with my chicken? I usually do not add protein but decided to today, it's only 1 ounce spoon full anyway. There were 6 people working, no line and it would take literally seconds. But that's what you get hiring teens. Would have liked a drink but the machines were empty like the last 2 visits. I think I may find another restaurant that has similar Ai i can have something more accommodating and my just water to drink. I mean $14.26 for a "meh" lunch? The ingredients were great and fresh. The rest needs work.

    We had a really good breakfast at The Cafe and I can already tell this is going to be one of those…read moreplaces we'll come back to! The atmosphere is modern industrial with a fun, lively feel. It is on the louder side, so if you're looking for a quiet, intimate breakfast, this probably isn't that kind of place. But for a busy breakfast spot, the energy works. The prices are moderate and felt very reasonable for the atmosphere, portions, and overall experience. I ordered the biscuit and gravy with a side of bacon, and let me just say... these were NOT your average biscuits! I got two huge, fluffy biscuits with little cubes of sausage tucked in between them and everything was covered in pepper gravy. The biscuits were soft and delicious, the sausage added just the right amount of flavor, and the pepper gravy pulled it all together. So good! My husband decided to go big and ordered the breakfast plate with all the fixings PLUS a waffle. Naturally, I had to sample the waffle, and I'm pretty sure I made my decision for my next visit right then and there. That waffle was delicious! It had a subtle vanilla flavor that paired incredibly well with the maple syrup. That vanilla + maple combination was honestly my favorite bite of the meal. The portions are generous, the food is flavorful, and there's enough variety on the menu that everyone should be able to find something they'll enjoy. Between my biscuits and gravy and my husband's breakfast feast, we definitely left happy and full. The Cafe gets a big thumbs-up from us, and I'm already looking forward to going back -- especially for that waffle!

And my Phantom of the Opera sandwich (pastrami, corned beef, chopped liver and cheese) is no longer on the menu board. Undaunted, I ordered a Pastrami Reuben for me and a turkey Reuben for my wife. Both sandwiches were boxed "to go" with just an accompanying pickle slice. No sides are included with these sandwiches , though I did appreciate the ability to order half sandwiches, as the Reuben was $17 and the Turkey Reuben was $11 for a full order. I recall being disappointed in the thick sliced pastrami from my last visit and was happy to see Stevens now slices more thin, too better "stack" the meat. The pastrami was well brined, with good flavor. The sandwich was still warm by the time I got it home. My wife's turkey Reuben, was served with real roasted turkey, but on the dry side. Both sandwiches had sauerkraut & 1000 island dressing, just not enough to save the Turkey sandwich. Stevens makes a solid product. But I'm not sure it's significantly better than McAlisters or Jason's.

I think my cocktail was called the Tokyo Pop? Not positive but you have to get it. Gin, bubbles, sake, and a hint of lemon in a flute glass. Refreshing, a hint of sweet, a hint of lemon, and extremely drinkable. It would be too easy to throw a ton of these back. But I was demure and had one. I enjoyed the calamari--my go-to here. Crispy, with a bit of heat from pickled peppers, a bit a of sweet form a sweet glaze, and a nice herby zing from mint, herbs, and scallions. They also top the calamari with a a nice portion of greens dressed in a lemon vinaigrette, making this appetizer feel close to a light meal. I am absolutely obsessed with the ponzu mayo that comes on the side. An absolutely delightful touch. I also enjoyed the chocolate cream pot. Talk about decadent. I love that it is served with berries, because you need that tartness to balance out the richness. Fully indulgent. Bonus points: I working fireplace. (And holiday decor still up--this never bothers me.) The ambiance is always lovely, with something iconic on the TV always playing. This spot is one of my fave representation of the Louisville food scene.

It's summer and sizzly hot and electrical issues happen. We deal. This would easily have been overlooked if the service or the food had compensated. But our server could not have cared less about us and was aloof and cold, expressionless. Took forever to come to our table and barely checked on us the entire meal. Then, after waiting an eternity, we were both brought the wrong food. Yes, we each were served the wrong dish. We both had ordered scallops and we both got sashimi. We were so hungry that we simply went ahead and ate it so that we could get out of that place. Indifferent waiters do not HEAR well, apparently. I likely won't be back. There are simply too many other good sushi places in Louisville. This was more than simply "one bad night" for the restaurant, in my opinion. It was a composite of "yuck."
