We come for the burgers which have never disappointed. You can customize and I recommend both the chicken or beef which are halal options. So good!

Recommended to us by our whiskey expert during a previous experience, the Mussel and Burger Bar is…read morelocated in downtown Louisville, within walking distance from the Louisville Slugger museum and factory. My wife and I stopped in for lunch, and found the remodeled inside to be just gorgeous. But the service was just OK, with the quality and size of the mussels being subpar. Moule Frites is one of my favorite dishes, and something I've tried to eat whenever it is available, often sopping up the delicious juices with crusty bread. So was super excited seeing mussel as part of a restaurant name. Sure enough, they have 6 dishes using mussels, with sizes coming in appetizer ($16) and entree ($20). What fills you up in a mussel dish is going to be the bread and french fries, so figured ordering three appetizers for me would be fine (Moles Basquaise, Curry Cream, and Ponzu). My wife does not like mussels, so she ordered 'the Dip' $17.99 (a french dip on a fresh baguette), which came with french fries, so I didn't have to order any. My wife liked her sandwich fine, and she liked her bread much more than I liked it. The fries were just OK as well, a bit greasy and overcooked. The same bread came in half loaf with each of the apps. Would have worked a lot better if the bread had been toasted considering it tasted like regular white bread without any bite or flavor. As for the mussels, they ranged in size from being very small (probably shouldn't have been served) to small, and because of the shrinkage during cooking, there really wasn't much meat. I loved the Basquaise sauce and would absolutely get it again with pasta or rice, just something more filling and better than the accompanying bread. The ponzu and curry cream didn't work...both mention asian influences and I really didn't see it. I intentionally hadn't ordered the meuniere (french white wine and garlic butter) which is what they use for pommes frittes. That would have been a much better choice. As for the service, she was just...there. Not really able to answer any questions, and just worrying about bringing our food out. Didn't really do anything to make it a better experience, considering the nature of this restaurant. I understand sourcing is often at the mercy of whatever the supplier can send you....but these PEI mussels just weren't great. Maybe expand the menu to include other types of mussels (such as New Zealand green mussels) that come frozen, but are consistent in their size and quality. The three sauces I tried would have gone better with them...they were too heavy to take advantage of the flavorful but delicate juice that a live mussel releases as it is being cooked...but would have been good with the meatiness of the NZ variety.

The B&B is -phenomenal-, and if you're in Louisville, you have to stop in and try it. You're doing yourself a disservice if you don't. The fries are a great grab with the burger, but the brussels were also so so killer. The space was super cool, too. The staff was friendly + welcoming. The Smørk cookie was featured while we were in, and it was DELICIOUS. If it's still there, grab one. You won't regret it.

I had no idea the veggie burger was the one featured on the show, so as a vegetarian, I was especially excited to try it. I swapped the veggie patty onto the Mushroom & Swiss burger, and it was hands down the best veggie burger I've had in the decade I've been vegetarian. Our group all ordered different burgers, along with the fries and Brussels sprouts, and every single plate was a hit. They have super unique sauces to try as well, I am not a huge pickle fan but the dill pickle hot sauce was my personal favorite. I also recommend grabbing a brown butter toffee cookie on your way out. The restaurant has a fun, laid-back atmosphere with great music, colorful murals, a lively bar area, and Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives playing on the TVs, which was a nice touch. It's also located in a cute part of downtown Louisville that's worth exploring. The service matched the food. Everyone was welcoming, happy to answer our questions, and made sure we had everything we needed. This will definitely be on my list for a return visit the next time I'm in Louisville.

Okay, I finally understand what everyone is talking about. I…read morewent to Toasty's Tavern specifically for the burger and fries because I have heard so many people rave about them, & they were literally everything I hoped they would be! The burger was delicious, but the fries honestly deserve their own paragraph. They have the subtle smoky flavor that immediately reminded me of the smell of campfires at my aunts place in the country when I was growing up. There's just something about them that's just so good.& they absolutely do not need a condiment. They're perfect completely on their own. I also ordered the fried mushrooms as an appetizer & those were delicious too. The only problem was that I very quickly realized I had ordered way too much food for one person, but was I going to let perfectly good food go to waste? Absolutely not. So naturally, I ate all of it. No regrets. The burger, the fries, the mushrooms, everything hit. I completely understand the hype now!

They're smashed, crispy-edged burgers served with sweet pickles, griddled onions, lettuce, and Toasty's special sauce. We shared a basket of their seasoned fries and added a side of "fry sauce," which is a delicious mix of mayo and ketchup. The menu is very reasonably priced, making this a great place for an afternoon meal without spending a fortune. Overall, we had a great time and really enjoyed the laid-back, fun atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

Instead of the usual fries, you can choose from a salad, fruit cup, edamame, and other fresh sides, which is a nice change. My friend ordered the mushroom and cheese burger, and it was packed with mushrooms and melted cheese in every bite. I had the crispy chicken sandwich, and it was perfectly crispy, juicy, and full of flavor. Drink refills are free, which is always appreciated. The only small inconvenience is that you have to ask an employee for a refill since the drink station isn't easily accessible. It would be even more convenient if the drink machine were located in an area where customers could refill their own drinks. Overall, the food, value, and service make this an easy 5-star experience. I'll definitely be back!

I love Jaggers. I likely get their Crispy Chicken salad at least once a week. The greens are crisp,…read morethe croutons crunchy, and the chicken is flavorful with a bit of that black better spice. I highly recommend the honey mustard, but they have other sauces, including ranch and Jaggers sauce. For awareness, you'll get two containers of sauce, so extra sauce means three or more containers. I almost always use the mobile app to make an order, but the one time I ordered for takeout at the counter, it took less than two minutes for my salad to be ready, bagged, and on the counter. There is drive thru where a person with an ordering pad will take your order before you go around to the collection window. I warn you, there is always a long line for pickup so ordering ahead for takeout or going inside to order may be quicker.

There are also picnic tables out front. You get a faint whiff of the grill/smoker upon entering. Kylie was our bartender and she was fabulous - knowledgeable, friendly, and answered all of our questions with patience. Wife ordered a mango margarita and doesn't like a lot of tequila, so Kylie went half and gave her a shot on the side in case she wanted to add more. It was wonderful. I had a couple of beers. We started with the fried mushrooms, which aren't what you would expect. It's two large portobellos cut into chunks, battered, fried, and served with sun-dried tomato mayo. They were great. I then ordered a duck taco, brisket taco, and a side of Grippo Fries with smoked mayo. I'd never tried duck but that taco was smack-a-lackin'. The brisket taco was also good, and the fries were fantastic - sweet and spicy, fresh cut, and crispy. Wife ordered a pork belly slider and truffle fries. She enjoyed the slider but didn't care for the fries - just not her thing. The portions here are large. A side of fries will feed three people. We took a hefty portion of them home, as well as some of the mushrooms. We could've sat there at the bar and spent 3 hours socializing and enjoying a smattering of cocktails - love the setting. Look forward to going back and trying one of the burgers at some point.
