This spot holds the best burger in town. I ate here before flying back to New York. I love hamburgers and meat and may I just say wow! I ordered the Wagyu burger and I was blown away by how juicy it was. I like the choice of exotic meats. It makes the whole experience much better. I also loved the rustic setting. read more

I'm a vegetarian and this place is AWESOME! Server recommended several choices for me. I had the Grilled Corn Poblano & Garbanzo burger. Amazing. They make all their own veg burgers, and the server was very knowlegabke about the ingredients and other vegetarian options. Also had the Thai Chili Glazed Brussel Sprouts. Too delicious for words. Actually met the owner. Nice dude. This place is perfect for meat lovers and veggie people. read more

My spouse eats meat. So do all our friends and family members. I have been to Game twice. I'm a vegetarian who eats some fish. But Game is a keeper. It's crowded, often, especially in winter when they can't open up the patio, so expect to wait in line. The beer selection is quite good, and the wines are also good. The people I have eaten with loved the meats. They especially love the meatballs and the sides. I have tried both of the veggie burgers. They are amazing. I usually expect restaurant-made veggie burgers to be okay, but not great. These are genuinely so so delicious. I will go back, especially when we have guests in town. read more

Let me first say I have been here many times and never had anything to say but glowing reviews. Tonight however was a huge disappointment. Went in for an early Father's Day dinner for my husband with my adult son and 18 month old granddaughter. Waiter was pleasant and helpful even when I order something off menu. Then before our food arrived as we were waiting playing with baby the manager approached. He asked if we wanted anything for the baby. I replied no as we had order her food but I was informed she was laughing too loudly. I replied we were fine and she was not crying just laughing. He said well i know but I hate to say it even but she is laughing too loudly. The music was up, the place was about empty and was way louder than she was. I totally lost my appetite. 90$ for 3 people and we all left alittle stunned. I think a child's laughter is the best of sounds. I guess I was wrong. Or atleast I was wrong here. read more

My experience at Game has been nothing but first rate. Yeah you gotta wait a few minutes for table to open but the owner waved me over to the bar and asked if I wanted to order a drink while I waited...so no biggie. Once seated I started of with the tar tar sliders which were phenomenal. Either build your own burger or choose from an extensive set burger list, you cannot go wrong either way. The side of fries now has a whe slew of dipping saucea to sample. The beer selection is quite good. Don't just try the drafts...there are some quality bottled choices in the cooler. I am not sure why the negative comments on the service. It was crazy busy when I've been there but the waitstaff seems genuinely eager to please and accommodate. Always ready with a suggestion or advice as far as I could hear. Not just to me but to folks around me. I personally like it better than Hammerheads primarily because of the more head room (literally) and seating arrangements. Another plus in the must-try-when-visiting-Louisville list. read more

Game is good for the variety of meats that they have. Bison, Venison, Kangaroo, etc. The toppings aren't that special, the sides are really bland. The meat and cheese combo is fantastic though. It's fine for what it is. As many other reviews have said, steer clear of the french fries. If you like beer, the menu is extensive. However, they have no fountain drinks so it's beer or water for you. The space is less than ideal. Cold in the winter, and it's really not easy to get to because there is virtually no parking. It's just disorganized. The service was fine. Nothing that would keep me going back, but fine. You'd really have to love the burgers to continue to go back here, otherwise, there's little to remark on. Three stars because they pride themselves on the variety of meats and burgers they offer, and they at least delivered on that. read more

A burger place by the guys who brought you Hammerheads. Burger options include Angus, bison, duck, wild boar (?), ostrich (?!), kangaroo (???!?), and more random animals plus 3 house made veggie burgers. You have a similarly varied choice of breads (pretzel, brioche, focaccia....), cheeses (American, herbed goat, brie...), condiments and "extras" (grilled romaine, foie gras, pork belly, egg...). For the indecisive, there are chef's suggestions of different burger combinations on the back of the menu. You also can make your own meatball sampler, which allows you to try hefty balls of different meats without the commitment of an entire burger. In the Hammerheads style, they have fries, with or without truffle oil or duck fat. Ambience is rustic yet upscale, reclaimed wood, etc. Limited seating. Noisy. They have a patio. Parking kind of sucks but there's a lot across the street. Pretty good beer list. Dessert sounded delicious. All in a very tasty and interesting dining experience. read more

I travel with a group of students every year to fine arts festivals across the country. Because of our schedule, we end up eating dinner very late in the evening, and many restaurants are not very happy when we bring in a group of 25 students and chaperones close to closing time, even if we have reservations. Everything that you have read in the other reviews is true. The food is amazing. The Smore's dessert might be the best dessert I've ever had in my life; I suggest ordering a glass of milk with it. Even my vegetarian daughter was pleased with the choice of three different garden burgers. But the real highlight is how accommodating they were when we brought our group in a half hour before closing time. The waitress sat and chatted with our youngest students and watched their videos. The manager was friendly and charming; every restaurant needs somebody like him at the front of the house. I realize that the decor is part of the charm for some people, but I was a little bothered by the cracked pleather and worn floors. Still I would recommend it to anyone. read more

I have been to Game 3 times now, here are my thoughts 1.) Bone marrow is good, not great but you can't go wrong with it. 2.) I have tried all the meatballs - The duck is interesting since Duck is hard to make into a meatball, it was ok but the fact they could do it was awesome - The Wagyu was good very good but the Boar the Elk and the Kangaroo are the show stoppers!!!!!!! 3.) The beer menu here is amazing not extensive but perfectly paired and they have crabby's !!! 4.) The burgers arent big but they are not small I have never finsihed a burger if i had a meatball The only thing I do not like is the Truffle fries do not really have a truffle taste The chef is amazing I will not lie but if you are feeling creative the build your own burger is ridiculous if ever I am given a last meal, it will be the wagyu burger topped with bacon, egg, softshell crab ( really?) with a Beef Marrow Aoli ( Who does that seriously) with a side of the Duckfat sweetpotato fries! read more

Let's start with the menu. Not only can you get one of the chef recommended burgers, but you can choose the ingredients on your own and go to town. The options range from focaccia to brioche on bread, from foie gras to soft shell crab on toppings, plus a full list of delicious sauces. Oh, you can also choose from a variety of meat including elk, venison and kangaroo. Since it was my first time I went with the prime beef and it was cooked to perfection. For the fries, which were delicious, we chose curry aioli and bone marrow aioli. Yum! We were surprised when our starter of scotch eggs came out with two huge slabs of pork belly. Talk about getting your money's worth. read more

Always a good choice to fill up on burgers at Game before going to the grocery store. I went in to Game famished before a trip to Kroger, and it was probably the best pre-shopping meal ever. You walk in, and it feels like you've walked into this big cabin in the mountains -- that's kind of the vibe there. Their patio has been closed up for the winter, and they have heat lamps out there right now, so we made our way under a giant heat lamp (how do I get one of these for my front porch?!) to see if Game lived up to its fanfare (and especially its sister restaurant's fanfare -- Hammerheads). First off, our waitress was awesome -- she gave us enough time to ogle the menu, and she didn't look at me like I was a beer snob when I asked her about the numerous saisons on the beer list. She recommended this beer called St. Feuillien, which was FANTASTIC (and as an aside, I'm now on the hunt to find it in a local liquor store). We inquired about the fries -- a $2 side and a $4 basket; the baskets are HUGE, so we ended up splitting what still appeared to be a basket of truffle oil fries even though we asked for the cheaper side, which was awesome. I haven't even gotten to the burgers yet, but I'm 100% sure I'll be back just to sit at the bar and drink beer and eat fries. While you can build your own burger, we were overwhelmed by all of the amazing options, so for our first time, we went with two of their pre-built burgers: the duck burger and the vegetarian grilled corn, poblano pepper, and garbanzo bean burger. The duck burger had greens, a fried egg, and this cranberry-jalapeno jam on focaccia bread. The veggie burger had brie, pickles, greens, tomato, and truffle mayo on a brioche bun. Here's the [not so] skinny: the duck burger is RICH, and if you're cautious about spicy stuff, the cranberries and jalapenos in the jam created this slightly sweet heat, but it paired well with the richness of the duck, so it wasn't spicy. I was curious about the focaccia bread, but it was perfect with the duck and perfect for soaking up all that egg yolk. The veggie burger was great, don't get me wrong, but it was a little messy given the soft texture of all the ingredients, which was compounded by the truffle mayo. As a flip flopping vegetarian for the last 14 years (definitely in an off year!), I have to say the duck burger won out for me, but my girlfriend preferred the veggie burger (with a little less mayo). All in all, this was an amazing meal, and it's got some seriously creative dishes there -- their special was an alpaca burger, and they regularly have kangaroo, goat, venison, lamb, bison... you name it, on their menu. It was super cozy, our waitress was super easy-going and gave us a good run-through of the menu but enough time to decide, and their had good beers to go with their amazing burgers. What's not to like about that?! read more

I had the pleasure of trying out Game last weekend. I've heard a bunch of my friends talking about this place and I was excited to try it out. One of the owners actually used to train Brazilian Jiu-jitsu with me before he opened Hammerheads. Anyways I had a taste of the camel burger and I had the elk burger for myself (as recommended on the menu along). With the burger I had with truffle fries and the cider that the waitress recommended. Everything was great and service was fantastic. The flavors are wildly crazy like you might expect when eating something like. . . camel. There is a slight gaminess to the food which adds a certain level of novelty to food, plus how often do you get to tell someone you ate elk? If you like burgers and want something a little different give Game a try. The one thing I did notice was that it was already packed and me and my friends purposely went during non peak hours (6pm). I had read a lot of reviews where people knocked the service saying it was poor. I'm sure there are instances of bad service but I would venture to say it was more of a product of being slammed with a huge amount of guests all at once. Maybe I'm just sympathetic to servers because I was one years ago but. . . give them a break. :) read more

Just like a previous reviewer mentioned, I wanted to give them a higher star review but there were major issues that the delicious food couldn't overcome. I really hope they get on their A-game (see what I did there?). My husband and I went to Game with a group of 6. We arrived around 6:30 and waited for an hour in the bar area (there are only 3 tables that accommodate parties of 6). There isn't much of a place to wait (3 chairs against a wall.....) so we were huddled at the end of the bar. It was a giant tease watching all the food walk past us. Finally, we were seated on the patio area. While it is enclosed, it is NOT insulated, so come prepared to sit basically outside. They have small overhead heat lamps, but they were totally insufficient. We ordered quickly after being seated, as we were all starving by that point. As a group, we ordered 3 meatball platters - 2 of which were supposed to be the same. One of them (of course mine) was not what I had ordered - but still delicious, nonetheless. We got the waygu (spelling?) beef and kangaroo (even though I ordered ostrich). The food runner also was not able to tell us which one was which, which was another bummer. Nonetheless, they were both delicious. Now, on the menu it states that things leave the kitchen as they are ready. That's all good and well, but when multiple people in the party order the same thing (kangaroo burger) and one receives their food 20 minutes later, that is just ridiculous. Also ridiculous is having fries show up 45 minutes after the first food was dropped - well after everyone finished eating. They were good, but COME ON. It appeared that servers were just taking other tables' food for their own instead of checking tickets. I know it's growing pains, but with their resumes sporting Hammerheads and Seviche, I expected better service from this place. In short: Give Game a chance. Eat the kangaroo burger. read more

If they hadn't over cooked my burger I would probably go with 5 stars. The elk was tasty and would probably be better cooked medium. I asked the server after one bite what temperature they were shooting for. He said medium. When I showed him the burger he said looks like they missed. The side of fries were cooked perfectly. Nice and crispy. Little bit pricey. Burger and fries $15 plus tax. Add a beer or two and you are spending some real money. read more

Very disappointed. The burgers were overcooked, dry, and very salty. Certainly overpriced for the quality. I don't plan to return.

Now that I've been here 5-6 times I'm comfortable writing a review. As an FYI they get busy on weekends around dinner, but other than that I've never had too much trouble getting a table. The servers have always been polite, attentive, and informative. The interior is relatively sparse, but befitting of the food being served. After all it is a burger joint. The beer selection is pretty good and the wine selection is good enough. Sitting outside so far is my favorite spot in the place. To the food. I've never been disappointed. Even with the take-out (they waited until I arrived to pay to drop my fries that way I got hot and fresh fries when I got home). I've had/tasted the lamb, bison, organic beef, kangaroo, antelope, venison, and elk in some form or another in my visits and they have all been tasty. The additions that you can make to you burger are where Game stands out from any other high end burger joint I've been to. The soft shell crab or bone marrow mayo are just so over the top. I really enjoyed my last burger which was organic beef, gorgonzola, cranberry-jalapeno jam, tomato, greens, onions on a pretzel bun. Very satisfying, but this time my burger was barely medium and I ordered it med-rare. Not a huge deal, but when splitting hairs in a food review that's what it comes down to. Overall, I'll keep coming back, and keep on recommending it. read more

We had lunch here last Saturday and it was pretty bad. It's like they open for lunch and don't staff for the rush that one would expect given their popularity. We ended up sitting outside which is enclosed, but no doors which was fine with the heat lamp, although still a bit chilly. The tables hadn't been wiped off even after we specifically asked for the waitress to do so. We waited so long for her to take our order (close to 20 min) we were about to leave which we should have done. The food was mediocre at best which is sad, because we have eaten her many times before and had both better food and far better service. read more

I got the Kangaroo Burger and the duck fat fries! It was amazing! Our waiter, Cory, was awesome as well! Made the experience so much better! It was totally worth every penny! read more

I am very honest with my reviews. I don't hold back if I am not satisfied and I never over exaggerate my opinion/experience. This restaurant was overall amazing. I would give it 10 stars if that was the option. Everything from the beautiful outside to the awesome wooden plates blew me away. The drink menu was all local with a plethora of options. I loved enthusiastic and welcoming staff that had a smile on their faces the entire time. The place felt very comfortable, could be causal, could also be a little bit of a fancy burger joint, and it was also unique. I ordered a kangaroo burger which I had no idea about. Let me tell you honestly this was the best burger I've eaten and I've eaten hundreds. My teeth when strait through but it also remained juicy and thick. It was amazing. Words can't describe it. My girlfriend got a salmon burger that she truly loved too. I have not a single complaint and can not wait to return here!!!!! read more

I had high expectations after going to Hammerheads and hoping for some really great burgers. What you get is mediocre service and overpriced food. First of all, it's incredibly disorganized, there's no hostess stand and no way to tell if anyone knows you are there or who's in line. They put is in a table in the middle of the restaurant and when a booth got up we asked to be moved. It took about 20 minutes for a server to come to us and she kept forgetting things like bringing a beer when ordered, waters, etc. The fries came out first, which I just think is weird and the burgers we're just meh. We decided that all of the burgers were spiced the same and you couldn't really distinguish between the meat. Don't the food experts say the best burger is one that is just seasoned with salt and pepper?? Overall not impressed and won't be back! read more

The scotch eggs were SO unique and scrumptious. I would stop back just to have those again. My father had a basic burger which he was happy with and I had a veggie burger. Minus one star for me because watching me eat this veggie burger was like a gameshow; it fell apart so badly! The sauce with it was great but it was so messy. Try the scotch eggs! You'll want to lick the sauce off the plate! read more

My actual review is 0/5! This is not the ideal place for new customers- there is no signage on seating and no information about seating on their website. I checked before I went in because of some of the reviews I read. Not only that but the servers watch you make a mistake by seating (sitting) yourself and don't even inform you when they pass you haha. Doesn't bother me, I spend my money based on customer service- not food. So, I investigated on my own & realize that the line is outside of the opposite door that I came in. Also, the people in line had to go in to get a server's attention after being passed repeatedly by 3 different servers. Beforehand, these people even held the door for the servers to bring out food after being ignored by them. And, while waiting behind them, I overheard them say they have been waiting in the cold for over 10 minutes. Food is food and I rather take my money elsewhere. We planned on going to Hammerheads but they were out of duck. Now I refuse to be a customer for either restaurants. I rather stack my money than waste it on non-existent customer service. Update: The owner's response showed his character... Classy move, Timothy. Your response on tripadvisor wasn't as nice and you might want to clean it up and cover your tracks like on Google. That's all I'm willing to say regarding him and his establishment; I'm not explaining myself any further than that. I am going to mentioned that my review wasn't meant to imply Hammerhead's has bad customer service so my apologizes; I just rather save my money instead of spending it on establishments with poor customer service, tasting gamey meats that I can learn how to cook for myself or on eating fast food. I regularly fast from unnecessary things in my life such as excessive spending. Thanks for prompting a fast in my life, Game. Over. read more

Have a wide variety of meats that you can't get elsewhere. Where else can you get kangaroo? Cool atmosphere too. Parking can be a challenge so be aware of that. read more

Game - Kangaroo, Alpaca, Elk - Burgers Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

(This review only gives them two stars but its due to service problems which Im sure they will soon work out. The food is amazing!) So I turned 41 today, and given my love for all things Hammerheads I veered off my plans to do Charim (Korean) tonight and instead went by Game to see if we could grab a seat. We managed to get in with only a ten minute wait, which was awesome. And the food was as good as its always been at Hammerheads. Their shtick here seems to be burgers done with wild and unusual meats such as antelope, ostrich, elk, kangaroo, etc etc. They had the signature Hammerheads fries which you can order with a side of the same house made sauces used to dress the burgers with. They had house made onion rings on the menu which I was eager to try, but our waitress claimed they werent offering those anymore. To difficult to make. As I said the food was as good as always. I would however suggest waiting a few weeks to go, while they get the service details ironed out. We initially waited on by a young man, who then seemed to abandon us after getting us water. Later watching what he was doing it seemed he was only supposed to be bussing and greeting people at the door. A new waitress appeared, apologized and took our drink and food orders. We ordered the Scotch eggs, which appear in the menu under the heading "Starters". Which would lead one to believe they are appetizers? We also ordered two burgers, two orders of fries and two custom dipping sauces. My order of fries came out far before anything else. When I told the waiter (not our waitress) dropping them at our table that we had ordered the Scotch Eggs as an appetizer, his response was "we bring the food out while its hot and fresh. You will get the eggs eventually." My thought was, well damn good thing I didnt order dessert then! They might have brought that out first! Come to find out the waitress never fired the order for our eggs. Which finally came long after we had our burgers and everything else. I had them still bring them simply so I could try them. Finally our bill came and none of our alcoholic beverages were on our check. I assumed the waitress comped them due to the problems with our order? Luckily for her I was an honest guy and asked first though. Nope, she hadnt comped them. For whatever reason they simply hadnt put them on the bill. She added one beer and comped the other two rewarding my karma and honesty at least partially. Quite simply the food is just as good as it was at Hammerheads and they have a hellacious beer menu. But give them a week or two to work out the service kinks. read more

Host, Waitress and bar staff were all extremely friendly and professional. Extremely low key relaxed atmosphere and not very big for the amount of people that want to eat here. Not that it's a problem because people will wait for great food, just like their other brother restaurant called "hammerheads". They don't take reservations so first come first serve which I like. I always like to go when I know I'll be hungry and give yourself a 30-45 min buffer window. Never arrive starving!!! Took about 20-25 mins to get food after ordering. Great place to take out of town guests, the game burgers have such a wide verity to choose from. read more

The food was good but the experience did not meet expectations. First, our party of seven waited for a while which we expected but then, since there wasn't a host, our table was given to another party which required an extended wait time. While ordering, our server explained that tomato was not available that evening because no one in the kitchen felt like slicing them and it was "above his pay grade" to help out and do it. Then when my order came out wrong, though everyone at the table agreed that I didn't order the wrong thing he insisted "but that's not what I wrote down". Seems like they have some management issues that need to be worked on. read more

I am being more and more surprised by the amazing places Louisville has to offer. Game's atmosphere is amazing. It almost feels like you are in a lodge of sorts, but also has a slightly hipster feel. The tables are basically shellacked cuts from logs, and the lighting is mostly dim. The choice of meats is outstanding. I had the wild boar burger with cranberry-jalapeno jam and goat cheese. It was cooked to a perfect medium with a great texture. If I go back I will definitely be trying the kangaroo. You can build as fancy of a burger as you can imagine at Game; if a Wagyu burger with Foie Gras suits you then that's an option, or you could have a plain beef burger, antelope, elk,..just about anything is possible. The side of fries is definitely enough for two! And the brew list was great as well. I would recommend Game to anyone looking for a gourmet burger in Louisville. read more

I love this place! The burgers are on point, the servers are always soooo very nice and always accommodating and helpful! I came here late At night after cochran hill dog park with akoya and her puppy friend sophie and the ace was packed! While we waited outside, 2 servers went OUT of their way to ask everyone if it would be ok with them if we came in with our pups. They are ALWAYSSSSSSSSS. so accommodating, i love this place for this, their food, their beer, and their awesome staff! I've been here at least 3 times and i have never been disappointed!! read more

Amazing food but definitely not cheap, however, you know its quality. I got the local lamb burger and the mint pesto that comes on it is phenomenal. My husband got the duck burger that was served with a fried egg and jalapeño cranberry jam. He was obsessed. They also have an amazing beer selection but not many are on tap. Overall, amazing food, comfortable atmosphere, great service. Definitely will be back. read more

She helped us navigate the menu and was very knowledgeable about the beer and bourbon selections. I highly recommend this place! read more

Game - Burgers Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

I am a fan of Game's sister restaurant, Hammerheads, so I knew I would be giving Game a try. If you're looking for a unique dining experience, Game is your place! The menu includes a number of very interesting burger choices including wagyu, kangaroo, duck, elk, and antelope (this is just a sample). I have already had the venison burger at Hammerheads, and I assume it would be the same at Game (which is delicious). It came highly recommended, so I ordered the duck burger. You can build the burger however you like but the chef's recommendation comes with greens, fried egg, cranberry-jalapeno jam on focaccia bread. It's a very interesting mix of flavors, and the seasoning of the duck was extremely tasty. Heads-up my fellow tomato haters: although the chef's recommendation does not list tomato, it did come with a slice of tomato that was promptly removed as soon as I received the burger! I am not a fan of duck, but I am a fan of this duck burger! My friend ordered the kangaroo burger dressed with the chef's recommendation of greens, cheddar, and tomato jam on a pretzel bun. Warning: this also came with a surprise tomato. He described the kangaroo burger as having "a good flavor profile and good seasoning. The patty had good consistency and finished off with a great artisan bread." We shared a basket of sweet potato fries, which were just like the Hammerheads sweet potato fries. They're good, but they're not really anything special. Game does not have as many choices of fries as Hammerheads, but you can get regular fries in truffle oil or fried in duck fat just like at Hammerheads. Game is very unique and should not be missed! I will be back! read more

When we go out to Wyoming & Montana in the summer we eat the best Elk & Bison burgers. Well we gave Game a try after reading good reviews. It was just as good as what we had out west. It's my new favorite burger place here in Louisville. We will go back to try all the other game meat they offer. Great service and friendly staff. read more

Whether you're feeling adventurous with your appetite, or just want to stick to a classic cheeseburger, Game's the place to be. The restaurant itself, though small, welcomes you with an atmosphere of big wooden tables and a nice outdoor seating area. The small bar works well to accommodate any wait time you may have, as it tends to fill up on weekends and nights. But, it's worth it. Pros: Game offers meats you can't find anywhere else, and they do it well. Kangaroo, Bison, Elk? Order a few nicely-priced meatballs before you place your burger order to test the waters before you commit. Game also has superb options for customization. You can get a basic burger with lettuce, tomato, and ketchup, or branch out a bit with some bone marrow mayo, cranberry jalapeño, soft shell crab, etc. (The pretzel buns are bomb.) Game has huge portions. Between the massive burgers and the large helpings of fries (truffle oil? sweet potato? They're all wonderful), you will not leave hungry. Although most of the employees seem to beat to their own drums, don't let the tattoos and piercings scare you. Everyone is really helpful, usually attentive, and generally happy to be there. Cons: The restaurant itself is not large, and due to the great food, usually rather busy. Don't be too surprised if you have to wait for a bit, especially with a large party. Summary: Ultimately Game challenges the rest of those in the burger scene, and wins every time. You can make your burger as extreme as you wish, but no how far you take it, it's going to be great. read more

I've always been a big fan of Hammer heads which is a sister restaurant to Game, so I decided to try game to see if it was equally as good. The answer is Yes the food is great and the service was amazing, I ordered just the angus burger with fries and unlike most burgers you get around town this one had good amount of flavorful seasoning and it was juicy like a burger should be. The waitress suggested a cider to me because I don't like beer strawberry and apple and it was so delicious I went and bought a six pack once I left. I highly recommend Game to all burger enthusiasts. read more

Was there last Thursday night. Christian the bartender was super nice and very helpful. The alpaca burger was amazing!

The food was excellent. Very flexible burger options, which is what I'ld expect if I am paying in the teen's for my burger alone. Which leads me to my next point. As mentioned in earlier reviews, not having a side complimentary, be it fries or anything for that matter, made me feel as if I was being cheated. Obviously THEY know that the customer will want fries, so they can charge extra, but regardless, it was definitely a knock on the rating for me. Relatively, there is not much room for large parties and unless its nice outside you'll be waiting a while no matter what table size you need for a space inside the building. That's just the reality of a popular place such as this with limited parking and seating. Overall, service was 8/10 and staff was generally helpful I Would go again, but this place is best suited for couples and smaller groups who don't mind waiting 20-30 minutes on a normal night. read more

The food was great. It's an experience. We took my brother when he came to visit Louisville, and he absolutely loved it. It is a bit overpriced for burgers, but it is not like you can go anywhere for kangaroo meat. read more

First time here early dinner hour yesterday. Meh. I wanted bison, they were out of bison. No big deal. I got the prime burger. It was fine, really. After adding caramelized onions, bacon and a couple of sauces to try w the burger and fries, my burger came to $17 (yes, just the burger). Jack Fry's and Proof's and Holy Grale's burger(s) blow this one OUT OF THE WATER, hands down. I found it odd that the duckfat fries were brought out close to 15 min before our burgers. We didn't order it as an appetizer. We were all a bit confused. We tried to at least get the server to bring the extra sauces we ordered to eat with the tasty fries. Whatever. Again, it was fine, but nothing to rave about. The Prime Burger w Bleu cheese was just what you'd expect. The bacon, however, was soggy, soft and not crispy. Boo. Sauce choices were good. I had the tomato jam and smoked honey Dijon. They also provided a wasabi ranch, I think. My dinner partners had the s'mores for dessert. I didn't partake. Not sure if it's in house marshmallows. The graham crackers did look house made along w a big schmear of Nutella. It looked and smelled decadent. I'm happy to see a few veggie choices. Plus, the menu is pretty straight forward. It was a fine dinner. If one is looking to be adventurous this could be your place. Maybe that's the draw to Game. I grew up with venison for lots of meals, so no adventure there. Server was good, environment was fine. I'd go back. But, it would not be my first choice for a burger. read more

3.6/5 Atmosphere/Service - Small, and quaint, but maybe needs some adjusting to the arrangement? I don't know -- just seemed to have bad feng shui or something. In nicer weather with that big patio area that whole tune good easily change. Staff was friendly, and the food came out in decent time. 4/5 - BAR - Many craft brews, and wines, but no hard/distilled alcohol. Perfectly ok with that. 3.8/5 - Menu/Food - Big fan of the menu. Meatballs and burgers of every variety of meat you can imagine (duck, boar, elk, antelope, etc), and scotch eggs to start? That's just unique and cool. I had the wild boar & kangaroo meatballs which were both delicious and served with a jelly/aoli sauce on the side which was a different touch...but good. I also had a seasonal salad which had a nice little dijon dressing that had a serious kick. Bleu cheese, walnuts, apples over a spring mix of greens...good. Here's the painful part...no gluten-free buns. You bring gluten-free buns, and the whole menu changes for me. I'm very curious about their burgers, and I'd love to maybe bring one of my own in, and give them a second try. Overall a very unique experience. I think if you aren't a woodsy person, or haven't tried different meats from travels, I think this place has more of an allure to it, but I realize that most ppl in Louisville are very intrigued by this "mystery meat" concept and it's a bold move. I definitely would recommend it. My personal experience would be around a 3.8/5 but I'll bump it up to a flat 4/5 for others to try it. read more
