Small place with a cool vibe. The staff were friendly and lively. Loved the old school Rap playing on the sound system. We sat at the bar, had a beer and the Elote Corn Dip. The beers were cold and the dip was delicious with their homemade chips. read more

We stopped in here on a tour of Louisville distilleries and bars. This was stop 3 for us. I got a margarita and the hubby ordered a beer. There wasn't much to this place and we were the only ones in the bar. There wasn't much interaction from the folks that worked in there either. The music was pretty loud and we just sat at the bar and had our cocktails and left. Not much to stay for. Cocktails were fine but nothing to write home about. Maybe it was the time of day we were in there but I doubt we will return here. read more

This dish had a bunch of different flavors, the crunch from the crisps, the salsa with melted cheese, the thick pita, and the sausage itself had its own flavor!

When you first walk in, it's nice to see everything decorated and all the fun Christmas mugs, glasses, and shot glasses. Then, you realize there is more! Nicely decorated festive rooms and a lot of space. I tried the Turkey Sliders and Fries and they were very good. Actually, a lot better than I expected so I highly recommend those. The Christmapolitan and Rudolph's Replacement were very good as well. Service was great, they weren't too busy and you have a couple different bars so that is a plus when it gets busier. I'm excited to go back before Miracle on Market ends. read more

If you're EVER in the Louisville Nulu/downtown area, you have to stop by Galaxie. My friends and I were looking for a quick bite to eat and stumbled upon this place and everything was 10/10! Mel was so knowledgeable about the menu, she suggested the chicken shawarma, loaded nacho and shrimp poboy and it was all BOMB. Was only able to get a pic of the nachos. They make their chips and toppings in house and we certainly tasted the freshness! Also, the ambiance and aesthetic were so cute, we loved the galaxy themed bathroom. This will def be a place we visit anytime we're back in town. read more

Visited Miracle on Market again to try more holiday cocktails. Venue was busy on a Sunday evening, but line moved fast. We were never able to snag a table, but there was plenty of standing room. Drinks were ok - they didn't rank as high as other pop up bars we've visited and they were some of the highest priced. We did share some food at Galaxie (front space) and it was so good! Overall, great decide for holidays but priced and not as impressive cocktails. read more

This place was a let down. I'd seen all the great reviews about how Galaxie was a fun place to pop into for good food and drinks, but I think they place the heavy lifting on their fun branding and cool vibes over quality food/service. There was hardly any meat on my $8 wrap and was mainly filler toppings. I got chips on the side, and I swear the salsa was straight from a jar. I also ordered a shot beer combo (which is normally a good deal), but my first shot glass still had lipstick from the previous person on it. We also had to wait a while for one person in our party to get their food, and they forgot our fries for a hot second. I'd try one of the many other restaurants in the area if you're in this part of town. read more

Stopped in for the pop up Christmas theme bar. Beautiful decorations . Order at the bar and pick your food up so it's self serve. Drinks are way overpriced in my opinion . While served in adorable Christmas themed glassware , it was $15 for a small glass of wine. Hot chocolate was $8 and seemed like Swiss miss with a marshmallow . Roast beef fries were hot and delicious . The ambiance is worth going for but can't afford to stay long . read more

We were super happy to stumble across this place one night while in Butchertown, Louisville. Everything else was closed, we had no idea that everything closed up so early in the area. Anyways, cute little place with different types of tacos bowls and Mexican food. My boyfriend and I decided to split a plate of nachos and add chorizo. He said they were the best nachos he's ever had, and he wasn't wrong. From the feta cheese, to the chorizo and the really crispy chips, they were delicious. He got a cocktail but I went for the lemonade with rosemary, a nice combo. And super reasonable prices. So we got fed and didn't break the bank and were able to walk back to our airbnb. Thank you Galaxie. read more

Stopped in for an early dinner and I love the creativity of their menu. Started with some margs and chips with queso. The homemade tortilla chips were warm and had a yummy seasoning on them. Also had tacos but completely forgot to take pictures because they were so yummy we dug right in. I'm excited that they will be opening a new location near home in Covington. This restaurant's quirky personality will fit right in. read more

I was browsing Uber Eats on rainy Friday night when I stumbled on Galaxie Tacos. I usually gravitate to local establishments and wasn't sure Galaxie Tacos was local? But my curiosity got the best of me, and I ordered three Wakatakas, (their signature flatbread tacos). I got the following: shrimp & chorizo- avocado mousse, arugula, aioli, pickled red onion, pico, cilantro hoisin bbq- korean bbq sauce, arugula,za'atar, pickled red onion Chimichurri chicken- grilled onion, chimichurri sauce, feta, pico, parsley I made it a combo and added chips and salsa. I'm not sure what the chips were dusted in, maybe grippos seasoning? I'm not usually much of a chip eater, but these were special with a unique combination of being both thick and flaky. The salsa was green and thicker than your average verde. I wasn't sure how many tacos I needed, having no experience with wakatakas. The flatbread made them more substantial than I expected. The toppings were hearty. I think one would've been enough, but I didn't let that stop me. I kept trying to pick my favorite, but I can't. Alternating bites provided the perfect combination of flavors. I can't comment on the ambience of this restaurant because I had them delivered. They were came fast and fresh. While I ate, I couldn't help but to keep thinking, "what luck that this place caught my eye." I can't remember the last time I've had tacos so satisfying. read more

I love this place so much! The food was just super tasty and rich in flavor! Drinks were nice too. The service was quick and diligent. The ambiance was very rustic and vintage, which I liked! 5 stars! read more

Galaxie is a cool funky spot for drinks right off the main drag in NULU! I've been here twice, and both times my husband and I only ordered hand-shaken cocktails from the bar. We always seem to eat elsewhere for lunch and dinner, but after looking at the menu & review photos, I'm starting to regret that! (The menu sounds amazing!) Until next time, when we WILL order food, all I can say is that their drinks are killer! The bartenders are quick, they know what they're doing, and seem like some of the coolest, kindest, most interesting people around! If you're not sure what drink you want to entertain, just ask them! They'll whip up a concoction that's sure to become your new favorite! Atmosphere is dark and sexy, perfect for sipping margs and listening to music on a date night. They often have live bands and events on weekends, and everyone in the area seems to recommend coming here! Stop in for a quick drink and a bite to eat! (I plan to update this review with food photos once I hit em' up again!) read more

Food was ok-fusion Indian and Mexican food. Wins: the nachos were fantastic and they have a great drink selection. Cons: They tried to lean so far on the Indian side of the flavor profile that it made the tacos inedible-saab does not belong on a taco, especially taking up over half the taco. Also, the ambiance was not welcoming or something that would lead me to want to return. So so so loud-it's 500 sq ft place, they had the trap music on full blast. It's also wildly flashy. Freezing temperature. Not date night worthy. I'd go back for pick up of the nachos. read more

The tacos have my whole heart!!! No seriously, after trying their Thanksgiving taco I have been raving about it to my husband. It got to the point where he told me to either stop talking about it or take him to get one. So we went and got one. Another taco of theirs I really like is the chipotle chicken one. I am a little ashamed to admit, but I've been here many times recently and I've gotten the Thanksgiving taco three of those times , there is just some thing about the zest in their cranberry sauce that really pulls it together. All that to say- I'm excited to come back and try even more of the taco combinations! This is a great place to stop in NuLu for a drink and snack, or you can make a meal out of the menu items. Around the holidays the bar turns into "miracle on market" and becomes a Christmas lovers dream. They usually post who is DJ'ing on their socials. The staff has always been kind and welcoming, food and drinks come out relatively quick even when the place is packed! Overall: check them out even if it's not the holidays, the fun tacos will hook your attention! read more

Galaxie .......... Located in the heart of the NULU neighborhood of Louisville on Market street, this intimate urban lounge is the perfect setting for a bar stop with tasty food. From the street , you would never guess what's lies inside. I went for tequila fest and was pleasantly surprised. The interior gives off cool vibe, with splashes of beautiful stunning art. The food is next level bar food and was prepared quickly. The perfect balance of composition of each dish was amazing. There is stage and full bar in the back. Definitely a place you can stop and enjoy. Drink: House Margarita Entree: Black Bean Bowl Decor: Recycled Art Masterpiece read more

On a night out in NuLu there's not a lot of places to get a late night snack. After a few tastes and drams at Evergreen I found myself walking into Galaxie for a night cap and food. Besides sporting a hip urban vibe (don't be afraid of the TVs inside the bathroom), Galaxie also slings some pretty tasty tacos. Opting for flatbread instead of tortillas these tacos are heavy hitters. I ordered both the cheesesteak and shrimp varieties and they both came overflowing with toppings. As a fan of well seasoned fries I have to give a shout out to Galaxie for nailing the right amount of salt and pepper that should go on French Fries. An odd complement I know but it really stuck out for me. Overall Galaxie tamed my food cravings, I would be happy to stop by again! read more

Galaxie - Galactic Combo - Bars Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

Space themed bar and eatery located in the popular and phenomenal Nulu neighborhood of Louisville, Kentucky. Me and my friend and fellow yelper Jeremy J was hanging out and checking out certain places and pieces of public art in the Shelby parks and Nulu neighborhoods yesterday and we both had galaxie on our list so it made it a no brained to stop here. We walked up at around 355pm (which I didn't even pay attention to the time but it comes into play later in this review) on a Saturday and while the place was smaller then expected the decor and vibe was very cool and nice. We personally enjoyed the large brain picture above the seats. We approach the bar after Looking at the drink menu and both was trying to find the food menu. We knew they had food because the sign our front said "lunch, dinner and Margs" and there was a guy at the grill preparing something. Jeremy asked for a food menu and the worker told him "kitchen isn't open until 4pm". So, we just got drinks. He got a mad tree happy amber IPA and I got a "street fighter" cocktail. We went and sat under the cool brain picture and the tables were gross and sticky. We checked out a few and they were all dirty and sticky. So that was gross. We ended up going outside once my street fighter came. He liked his beer a lot. He said it was a solid 4/5. My cocktail was delicious. I'd say 4.5/5 While outside I noticed the "lunch, dinner and margs" sign and was like how do they serve lunch but do not open the kitchen until 4pm? I then looked at the time and it was past 4pm. Which made me question To my friend "why couldn't we look at the food menu when we asked about it". I mean we would of gladly waited 5 min to 4pm to order nachos or something. Like we could of easily enjoyed our drinks while waiting 5 min. If I'm being honest neither of the two bar workers were friendly either. They barely spoke and didn't acknowledge us hardly at all. No how are you doing, thanks for coming or have a good day. Just "kitchen isn't open to 4pm" "here's your receipt" and "here's your drink". From the dirty tables to the bad service this place let us down. The decor and drinks were great. If I had a better experience I would highly recommend this place. I get it places can get busy and tables might not get wiped down. But there isn't any excuse for bad and lazy service. I wish I would of paid more attention to the time because I would of questioned why we couldn't see a food menu 5 min before the kitchen opened. She just simply didn't want to go grab a menu it seems. It cost her establishment more money and gonna cost her establishment two customers who likely will not come back. Which is I mentioned a shame. We were both pretty pumped to try this place. read more

Discovering restaurants in Louisville has been something I've throughlgly enjoyed since moving to the area a few years ago and the one thing I've definitely noticed since coming here is there are a great selection of taco places with Galaxie being added to my list as one of my favorite such places in town. Galaxie has an extremely chill vibe to it. It is a counter service restaurant with lots of outdoor seating available and also a bar inside with some seating as well. The food selection is focused around tacos each providing a very unique flavor and on this first visit I decided to go with their chipotle chicken and shrimp & chorizo tacos that Galaxie calls "Wakatakas" Their Wakatakas come on their signature flatbread tacos and are extremely delicious and full of flavor. The smell alone had my mouth watering before receiving my food. As far as side options go, Galaxie has everything from their Vader fries to their Galaxie loaded nachos, which is what I decided to go with on this particular trip. You have a choice between a small order and a large order but I will say that the large order is a lot so if you don't think you can finish the mountain of chips that Galaxie provides I'd recommend sticking with a small order. The food was presented very pleasing to the eyes and everything was very fresh and juicy as well as being extremely delicious as what one would expect with other Louisville taco places. Galaxie also has a great selection of cocktails, all with their own unique name of which some come from various pop culture references. I decided to go with the Street Fighter, a mixture of aged rum, pineapple, lime & campari. The presentation of the drink was very nice however the drink itself had a bit too much of a citrus taste so for those that enjoy that flavor, this drink is for you. Galaxie makes for a great stop along the NuLu section of Louisville and is a place I definitely recommend any food or taco lover come and check out. read more

The drinks and food are excellent. It's a regular stop for me when I'm in Nulu for a quick bite to eat!

Galaxie was across the street from our hotel and we were pretty hungry and looked for a quick bite. Stopped into Galaxie we're we ordered nachos and tacos. The nachos were incredibly good. I the tortilla chips had some type of seasoning on them that gave it a bit of a kick. I couldn't believe how tasty they were! read more

Searching Yelp for cool spots in NuLu, I found Galaxie. Multiple people mentioned how great their margaritas are having a deep a love for good margs and tequila, we had to make a stop here. I was also intrigued by their Wakatakas- their version of a taco. And if I'm really being honest, I needed to see this bathroom of theirs. So after a very long walk to NuLu, we finally reached Galaxie in time for lunch. Mom and I each ordered a margarita (duh) and split their Galaxy combo- 2 Wakatakas + chips and salsa for $12. I had the Baja Ship and she had the Cheese Steak. Both were really good. I loved the "tortillas," which are almost like a pita bread but a little thinner and more bendable. Hard to explain but they are good. As for the marg, it was also very good. THREE shots of tequila in this bad boy. We ended up sitting out side and stayed for a second drink they were so good. The vibe here is cool and it looks like it turns more into a bar at night with DJ's and dance parties on the weekend. It's not a huge place, but definitely worth a stop. And for that bathroom- it's odd for sure. They didn't have the static TV on when I was there (probably b/c it wasn't that busy at lunch on a Sat), but it's definitely unique. If you're in the area, stop and get yourself a margarita. I promise you won't ragret it (unlike Scotty P.). read more

Coming to galaxie, you don't really expect much more than bar food and drinks. What is surprising is that it is much more than bar food. The tacos are superb with the handmade wakataka bringing life to all that is yummy and the house made seasoned chips. We tried the chicken shawarma, Baja shrimp, Sunny side egg, and Eggplant and portobello. The chicken shawarma I wouldn't not get again. Something about it was off. Like it was missing something. The other three, on the other hand, we considered getting seconds of (except they're so filling we were already stuffed ) The Baja shrimp is nothing extraordinary but it definitely is flavor packed, delicious, and full of a good variety of textures to please the taste buds. The Sunny side egg was great with a tad bit of hot sauce. The sweet potatoes and feta balance each other perfectly with a subtle hint of sweetness and a punch of salty/tangy. It was superb The eggplant and portobello was surprising. I was not expecting the jab of flavors that I received in the first bite. It is a perfect combination of delicious and best when paired with their seasoned tortilla chips and the galaxie margarita. Their margarita is packed with a punch of sour that delights the sensation. Add the house music on Thursday nights and you're ready to travel to party. read more

We came here after a distillery tour. It's definitely not a fancy place and we didn't get any drinks due to having that distillery tour buzz. I got a shrimp and chorizo wakataka and a small order of loaded chicken nachos. I love that they have a small and large order because I find typically loaded nachos are so huge as an appetizer that I'm not hungry for anything else. The food was so flavorful! The walataka was tasty, but the bread was a bit thicker than I wanted. The nachos might be some of my favorites that I've eaten. The chips had great seasoning and the ingredients were very fresh and flavorful. I would probably just get those next time and get two proteins on them. My dad had the steak wakataka and hot chicken wakataka and said they were very tasty! He preferred the steak to the chicken. The food we got was pretty heavy and a bit greasy, definitely a good pick to soak up all that bourbon from the whiskey tour, but they do have some lighter fare options that look very good! read more
