    Game is an interesting concept, I love trying different foods and expanding my taste palette. I do think that the restaurant is over hyped than it's out to be and the interior confused me because it reminded me of a bar shack, shabby, and tacky. Service was excellent and our waitress addy-Clare is outstanding with her politeness and service!

    Game is a really cool and casual restaurant with meat from a wide variety of exotic animals around the world. The food was good, and the service was friendly and attentive. The ambiance is very casual and has a lodge theme. They have both indoor and outdoor seating with booths, tables and seats at the bar. The range of food options is incredible. While Game is a meat lover's paradise, they also have vegetarian options available. I'm a meat lover, so I went with a heavy dose of meat. We started with four sampler meatballs - Antelope meatball - really flavorful - probably our favorite - Camel meatball - good, with nice seasoning - Elk - really good flavor with house seasoning - Kangaroo - good, but a little dry After that we got the Slider Trio - Wild Boar Chorizo Slider, Roasted Bison Tongue Slider, and Duck Confit Slide. The boar chorizo was good, and the duck confit was amazing. I was not a fan of the bison tongue - funky flavor and tough. The spices and sauces Game used to complement the meat in the sandwiches was a great combination. We also ordered a Prime Angus Burger, which was cooked perfectly and was juicy. For sides we ordered some French fries that were perfect and some fried green tomatoes which were good. We will definitely return.

    I think I've reviewed before, quite a while ago. We've come for every special occasion for some time & I think it's official, my husband has had every item on the menu! This last item was Rabbit (not pictured), unfortunately it personally has been his least favorite but that is no one's fault! Just doesn't like it. Service is always fantastic as always & on top of it! Glad they weren't extremely busy so it was a relaxing dinner, I suppose we chose the right time! It was my husband's birthday & his best friend brought him Oreo Dessert from home to share! Thought we'd make the staffs night & shared it with our waitress & the kitchen staff, they were VERY appreciative! Thanks for always providing wonderful dishes!

    Great burger spot! Check them out for Lou burger week--any other time check them out for a classic or exotic burger Indoor/outdoor seating, eclectic feel, perfect for a date or catching up with friends

    We went at opening time and it was probably the same temperature inside that it was outside, about 50 degrees. We wore our coats the whole time. The food was hot, fresh and service was outstanding. I would want to try coming in after they have been open for awhile next time and see if the temperature is more moderate. 5 stars for the food, just took off a star because the temperature was uncomfortably cold even with the coats on.

    This place is really something special. Best burgers I've ever had and I'll say it forever. My go to is the Bison burger, with a side of duck fat fries and Brussel sprouts. This place really provides you with so many options of meat to try, and a well put together sampler you can purchase to try a little bit of everything. Staff is very attentive; the place itself is a little smaller so you may be waiting on a busy weekend for a table but it's always worth it! This place is a must try to anyone who loves a good burger; and really want something that breaks the mold!

    Nice little hole in the wall place, very friendly staff! The nachos and frog legs were delicious! I got the slider trio to try a different variety, they were okay. The chorizo was my favorite, the other two I wasn't too fond of because of the texture. If you're looking for something out of your comfort zone you found it

    Kangaroo Burger
    Nina P.

    We left disappointed. To sum it up, this place is a weird, overpriced burger joint. Please note, parking is parallel parking and very limited. Seating is also limited and we froze during our visit, despite sitting in the main area. Our server was nice and attentive. We ordered the nacho appetizer, chefs meat choice was venison and chorizo. We received our appetizer quickly. The pico de gallo tasted very fresh, but the meat was not very good. You can order a variety of game in the form of meatballs or burgers. We ordered the yak burger and kangaroo burger. They had a special of swai fish sandwich so we ordered it. Despite the prices being so high, you're paying around $20 just for the sandwich. If you want a side, you have to pay extra. The swai wasn't very "meaty" and wasn't very flavorful. The burgers were cooked well, but I wonder how much of the ground meat was actual wild game or if it has some beef filler to make the meat go further. The menu says all game is sourced from local farms but most swai is imported from Vietnam and I'm not sure where they're slaughtering kangaroos from in Louisville. Also, our food was served on wooden boards. While that may appear neat, I couldn't help but wonder how clean it actually was since wood is so porous and these had clearly been used quite a bit given all the blemishes and cuts in them. All in all, I'm happy to check this restaurant off my collection board but do not recommend and will not return.

    If you like trying exotic meats then this is the place! Their frog legs were juicy and meaty! We tried different kinds of meatballs like yak and antelope and they were all sooo tasty The service was good! And the restaurant is just minutes away from downtown! They have different types of food and regular food if you're not into exotic meats

    Buttermilk Fried Frog Legs
    Breanna M.

    One of the most unique meals I've ever had! The walls are covered in taxidermy, adding to the distinctive atmosphere. My husband and I were traveling when he spotted the menu and was instantly intrigued. The frog legs were incredibly tender and delicious, and all the meats were unique and flavorful. Definitely a memorable dining experience!

    Wow! What a cool experience! We met friends for dinner at Game, and really enjoyed the food and experience! Great prices for the food too. Individual reviews: The meet takes the cake: the meatballs, sliders, and burger were DELICIOUS. The table loved the bone marrow, though that wasn't my thing. I will say, I wasn't impressed with either salad. I had the seasonal salad and my partner had the grilled ceasar. The dressings weren't great and they were too dressed IMO. We also ordered dessert, and WOW! SO good.

    Came here for the first time during burger week and it was awesome. Brought my son while he was visiting. We tried Yak, Antelope, Elk, and Kangaroo meatballs. All cooked perfectly. I went for my tried and true Waygu burger. He had Yak burger. Very enjoyable.

    I love coming to Game. Food like you will never get any where else. If you aren't sure of what to try, order the meatballs to sample. You can order burgers any way you'd like, but I promise you the chef's recommended versions are FREAKING AWESOME! The only drawback is the severe lack of parking. It's sometimes scary trying to get in. Thank goodness there is a small but spectacular beer list to calm you down. They dropped Alpaca. Before you say anything, that was my favorite meat and beyond delicious. Today we had Wild Boar and Antelope. Spend the $3 and get the fries cooked in Duck Fat. And the corn. Good God- get the corn. I've tried recipes and other places and I've never, ever had anything as close to heaven as the corn

    Visited Grind Burger Kitchen in Louisville during a family trip and had a pretty mixed experience…read more We arrived around 6:30 PM and were told there would be about an hour wait, which was fine--we're new to town, so we figured we'd walk around and explore while we waited. We were told to come back at 7:00 PM, so we did. When we returned, we were seated, but then told it would be another hour before our order could even be taken and our food brought out. That part was really frustrating--if we had known that upfront when we first put our name down, we could have planned differently. As for the food, it was decent. The burger itself was delicious and definitely the highlight. The fries were very oily but crispy--I personally liked them since I prefer well-done fries, but my daughter wasn't a fan. The layout of the place was also a bit confusing--it took a while to even find the restroom since it was tucked away in another area. Service-wise, I also had to ask for a refill--and only got one--which was disappointing, especially with such a big burger. Overall, spending close to three hours from arrival to finishing our meal just didn't feel worth it, especially with the lack of communication about wait times and limited service. Not a terrible spot food-wise, but the experience could definitely be improved.

I warn you, there is always a long line for pickup so ordering ahead for takeout or going inside to order may be quicker.
