They've become quite popular over the last few years and have done some small remodeling to add additional space. Now for the food, I tried the 3 alarm burger with no alarms as I don't like too much spice. The burger was fresh, great temperature and all around flavorful. I tried the side Greek salad which was much bigger than I expected but it was still good. The fries however are a must have if you've never tried them. The server was super nice and made sure we had everything we needed. The owner also walked the restaurant checking in on the customers which I always love every time I visit. Bards is consistent every time!

It's fancy, it's pricey, it's loud…read more Hit up Knowledge while waiting for a dinner table to open up nearby. Folks here seem to dress a bit up-scale. There was plenty of space and seating available when we came in on a Saturday evening. Our party started at a large wobbly high-top and then moved to a more comfortable booth spot in the corner. I enjoyed the ceiling art. Our group collectively enjoyed some of their chic craft cocktails. All of them were beautifully assembled. The Casse was decent, but if your after the bold flavor of tequila you're not going to taste much of it. I greatly enjoyed the Pistachio Martini. Green and delicious with just the right amout of pistachio flavor. Drinks are priced in the double digits so don't expect to get out of there with a light bill.

They offer delicious seasonal drinks, and every drink & shot I've tried has been amazing! My absolute favorite thing I've had here (and one of the best drinks I've ever had period) is their S'mores Espresso Martini! It's literally perfection; aesthetically it's fun but still well composed as any espresso martini should be; it's has the right balance of sweet & coffee, & all of the flavors really make it taste like you're drinking an espresso flavored s'more! If you see this on the menu, it is a must try!

Wow, what a fall from Grace... When second story originally opened the bar was incredible. The…read moremusic was great, the drinks were really well made, and they had a great selection and were willing to make specialty cocktails for anybody who asked. Sadly not the case today. Each and every time my friends and I have returned it seems that things are getting worse and worse. The menu has been cut in half, the service is not as good as it used to be, the prices have increased, and they are no longer willing to make exceptions or modify most of the cocktails; even when asking for something simple like a replaced spirit for an up-charge or to accommodate allergies. It's been getting a little more "club" atmosphere recently. The music is louder, the clientele a little more rowdy. Maybe some prefer that, but we miss the elevated cocktail lounge it used to be.

But the second you walk in, something just clicks. It's easy -- like you've been here before in another life or like you've known this energy forever. The vibe is calm but magnetic. Not trying too hard, not putting on a show -- just honest, comfortable, and kind of intoxicating in the quietest way. You could stay for hours and still not want to leave, even after last call. That kind of place. There's a warmth that sneaks up on you -- the kind that makes you laugh more than you thought you would. Makes you say things you didn't plan to say. Makes you wonder how something so easy can also feel so rare. I don't know what kind of magic they've got going on here, but it's working. Trust me -- this place stays with you. Vinny is the best

To start, let me just say that I've never been the biggest fan of bars. The noise? The crowds? No…read morethanks. Throughout my time as a student at NKU, my friends told me all about 'The Tavern' and the great times they had there. One day, they finally convinced me to give it a shot. In return, it gave me some of the best shots I've ever had. Since then, Billie's Skyline Tavern has been a frequent hangout for my group of friends. The atmosphere is very, for the lack of a better word, chill. It's never too loud and it's never too crowded. It's a perfect place to spend a night with friends without having to shout at them over someone else. It's also really easy to strike up a conversation with someone new there. The food is the standard stuff you'd find on any other pub's menu, but the prices are good for the portions you get, and everything I've every ordered has been good. As for the mixed drinks, they are some of the BEST I've ever had! Better quality than some of the 'fancy' restaurants I've been to. I've watched the staff make the drinks at the bar, and they certainly aren't skimpy with the liquor. Every bartender I've ordered drinks from has been very helpful. I have a handful of cocktails I always order, but if I point out a liquor I'd like to try but don't know what to combine it with, the staff has always been more than happy to make suggestions. They've all been winners! My friend, who is very particular about her drinks, once asked one of the bartenders for a very specific cocktail she had ordered at another restaurant. Though she had never made that specific drink, the bartender was very enthusiastic about trying something new, and worked very hard to assure my friend was satisfied with her drink. The only real complaint I have is that smoking is allowed in the building, but honestly, for the quality you get and the price you pay, a little bit of second hand smoke is worth it. I'd recommend it to anyone!

Galaxie was decked out for the holidays and leaned hard into the theme. Christmas movies were playing on all the tv's. There were plentiful themed drinks, and even a themed food menu. I didn't have the time to eat, but tried a couple drinks while I was waiting for a show to start at the Carnegie. They were definitely crafted cocktails and took a bit to assemble. Prices are high and taste was hit-or-miss, so I would be sure to check the ingredients to insure the combination is something that really speaks to you. There was a decent crowd on a Saturday night, but they were well-staffed and seemed to handle the volume without much delay.
