Parlour opened about a year and a half ago, in place of our beloved O'Charley's. Expectations were…read morehigh and my family and I didn't want its sacrifice to be in vain. Luckily, we weren't disappointed. When we first walked in, the ladies at the hostess stand offered us free breadsticks for joining "Parlour Rewards". Since these appetizers were being handed out for free, I wasn't exactly expecting perfection. But boy, was I wrong. The breadsticks were hot and fresh-the bread itself was soft and fluffy. We got the garlic sauce with them (recommended to us by our server) and it was delicious. After much debating and scrutiny, we decided to order two large pizzas- "The Boss" and "Hot Honey Pepperoni". The Boss was labeled as "very spicy", and it definitely delivered it that respect. Their homemade red sauce was amazing. The Hot Honey Pepperoni balanced sweet and heat perfectly. The only thing I'd change is the type of slice, since my childhood self was not quite accustomed to the triangular shape. Nice ambiance in here and the service from Karolyne was great. All in all, an awesome experience here at Parlour. Maybe even awesome enough to justify the loss of its predecessor establishment. I'd definitely recommend stopping by, and I'd recommend taking advantage of their free breadsticks that are seriously some of the best I've ever had.

Finally decided to try again after a not great experience the first time (to go). Came in on a…read moreSaturday around 2 and was seated immediately. Server was nice but new and didn't seem to know what the pizza options were. We ordered bbq wings and their version of a supreme pizza called The Deluxe. Wait was a little long but bearable. Wings were hot but weren't particularly flavorful. We chose a regular crust pizza but it was THIN. I was surprised that for the price that was the serving. Overall fine since their crust is doused in garlic butter and the pizza sauce is a little sweet, but with so many other places in town with great crust, probably won't return.

We arrived a little early for the Yelp event so we hit the bar and had a cocktail…read more My wife and I attended the Yelp event tonight and it was fantastic. Mike and his staff did a great job setting up the Ballroom for our group. We got to see two of our favorites at Origin Hotel/33 Staves, Jennifer and Ruby. They are Rockstars!! We enjoyed the food. The Fried Catfish was my favorite and the Blueberry Cheesecake was phenomenal. My wife's favorite was the Fried Green Tomatoes. We took advantage of the bourbon tastings with Pinhook and Jeptha Creed. We got a caricature done by Rob Maystead with the Caricature Shop.

Even on a busy night one parking lot was empty but blocked off with sign saying valet only.

Sometimes it's just a one-night stop, sometimes a few days, but we always take her out for a proper dinner. This trip, arriving from Chicago and following my chiropractor's enthusiastic recommendation, we chose Giuseppe's, and it turned out to be a very lovely evening. The space is warm and inviting, with plenty of wood, cozy lighting, and an impressive display of bourbons and wines that immediately sets a welcoming tone. We started with gnocchi and mozzarella alla milanese. The gnocchi were nicely al dente and the paired sauces complemented each other well. My husband and I shared the daily special, halibut with a light creamy caper sauce. The fish leaned slightly overcooked, but the flavors were still very enjoyable, and the Brussels sprouts were perfectly done. Our friend ordered the fettuccine Alfredo, and after one bite I understood her happiness... rich, creamy, and comforting. Dessert became a celebration: a Spumoni Bomba (three gelatos wrapped in a chocolate shell) and a warm maple cake with ice cream that was honestly sinful in the best way. Our server, Tim, didn't make the strongest first impression but warmed up quickly becoming attentive and pleasant. Cocktails could use a little more polish, my Old Fashioned was a bit harsh, and I was surprised a Boulevardier wasn't available despite a Negroni being on the menu and bourbon well represented. Overall, a very good experience and a wonderful dinner with friends, not bad at all for just a brief stop in town.

Garbage. Bougie,…read morepresumptuous, arrogant garbage. Start with the good: the Old Fashioned I got was wonderful. Then the bad: I ordered French toast, it was slimy and mushy and gross. I also ordered two over medium eggs, and confirmed with the server what 'over medium' meant in Kentucky, and proceeded. The eggs were runny AF, uncooked white, gross. I sent them back only to receive crispier (cooked hotter) eggs that were just as runny. This place is nice, pretty, and great if all you care about is the presentation, and you like to have your ego polished. Food is garbage. Can't cook an egg? How can you trust them to cook Beef Wellington or Lobster Thermidore if they can't cook a fukn egg and some French toast. Really annoying because I'm not from here and I was really looking forward to a nice brunch. This whole trip has been fuked. Rain. Hotel parking nightmares. Edit to the review: Ok, maybe I was a little harsh there. I do appreciate the apologies, but not being able to or caring to temp an egg, I don't know. Place is a bit nice, maybe I was a bit upset and used too many adjectives. Either way, regardless of what I was eating, I don't think a cocktail is unreasonable at 11:30 in the morning (like a mimosa with breakfast), and what desert are you referring to? The one I asked for but didn't receive? You didn't bill me for something I didn't receive? What a saintly gesture! Thanks very much!

Stopped by for lunch during restaurant week…read more There is plenty of parking in the shared lot outside. The interior is decorated well - modern, vibrant, and feels more up-scale. We ordered the house salad as appetizer, tuna tower and tofu lettuce wraps as mains, and chocolate torte for dessert. Service was pretty fast. However, the order in which we were served was a bit strange. We ended up receiving our dessert with our main, which left us trying to quickly eat the main so that the sorbet wouldn't melt. The serving sizes are relatively small. The quality of ingredients were good and fresh, but it was an overall light lunch. We grabbed a bite to eat elsewhere not long after. But, for the price it was a nice bite.
