We had high hopes based on Eagle Louisville's stellar Yelp score. But we walked away disappointed…read morebecause of a major service lapse, curious food seasonings and discrepancies between menu descriptions and actual dishes. We arrived mid-afternoon on a Friday. We had a choice between sitting inside or being seated at a picnic table on the covered deck. We were assigned a high-top table in the dining area past the bar, where a few guys were watching a soccer match. The brine-soaked fried chicken is Eagle's specialty, so we ordered it. I thought the chicken was good,. So per the menu for the three-piece fried chicken meal, you can only order either all white meat or all dark meat. Interestingly, the two people at our table that ordered white meat still got a drumstick with their meat. The last I checked, drumsticks were considered dark meat. For an appetizer, we ordered the hush puppies. They had a nice crunchy texture but were very spicy hot. We also ordered the spoonbread. This was my favorite dish of the day. It was served warm, had a great texture and a light maple flavor. With our meals, we could get two sides. We requested the collard greens, green beans, fries, grits and mac & cheese. Only the mac & cheese was good. The collard greens were way salty and the green beans had odd and unexpected seasonings. Our dining companion was put out, and understandably so, that the menu said the grits came with white cheddar cheese. But instead, though the grits maybe had cheese, they were also loaded with loads of diced jalapeno. They were so over the top spicy, none of us could eat the grits. The fries were strongly seasoned with oregano. WTF? Our entrees came with biscuits. The biscuits were tasty, but unfortunately, because they contained too much shortening, fell apart when buttering them. And that leads up to the service lapse. After we received our check, our server completely disappeared. We waited a half hour for her to re-appear, gave up and asked another server to cash us out. He disappeared and we waited some more. Finally the red-headed server re-appeared and breezily explained she had been out on the deck the whole time. No apology or anything.

The prices are really reasonable and you can choose to pay what you can or even work it off. You can also pay it forward for someone else to get a nice meal. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming. Please go try it!

This is a pay what you can, pay it forward to help others if you can, roll up your sleeves and work for your meal setup. So, you might think...ah, cool, enjoy your canned soup and turkey sandwich, I'll go to a "real" restaurant. This would be foolish. The food is every bit as good as you'll find in a more traditional, for-profit setup. They focus on locally sourced ingredients and have a seasonal menu as a result. The food is delicious. Menu is delightfully trim but with something for every taste (salads, soups, sandwiches, sides). Had some meatloaf sliders with pimento cheese when I was there that I'd like to replicate at home. My friends raved about their selections as well. Service is amazingly friendly and attentive. I'm not sure anyone's glass dropped below half-full. And the servers were happy to share the stories behind the concept, which showed the pride they had in the venture. Everyone is welcome here. Might have a table of folks in suits next to a table of folks stopping in from their factory shift next to a table with someone who's looking for a good meal and will be washing dishes after he eats to pay his fare. Just welcoming, casual, good-feeling place.

I am so torn here. The food was like food my grandmother would make, which I really appreciate…read morebeing able to eat since she's passed on. It was not the best food in the world but the food here tastes like home to me. Just really well seasoned and old school. Now here's my issue. This establishment had me wait almost 90 minutes on a 92 degree day (WITH MY FIVE YEAR OLD) for two meals. They had already taken my money, otherwise I would have booked it. Here's what I ate: 1. Fried Pork Chop with mashed potaotes (they were out of potato salad) and greens, gravy on the side 2. Ribs with macaroni and cheese and Pinto Beans I also got a blackberry cobbler. I checked in after 30 minutes and they weren't sympathetic. I looked at these reviews later and saw that someone said the customer service at this establishment was hilarious and they were not kidding. Here's how everything tasted: Pork Chop: very flavorful, glad I got fried and not smothered for texture reasons Mashed potatoes: good and real, but nothing to write home about Ribs: They were okay. tender. tasted like they were boiled and that's not my preference...they were also swimming in sauce. I feel like ribs should be able to stand up without the sauce and I was not sure this could happen here. The bbq sauce is part of the dish for them. Greens: overly salted, underseasoned...they needed to be eaten by the pinto beans Pinto beans: absolutely no salt--would not order again Macaroni and cheese: this is the creamy kind, not the baked kind (not my preference. Gravy: excellent Blackberry Cobbler: FIVE STARS. Delicious, buttery, so tasty. I went home and tried to make one. Seriously: no notes here. It is a must try. Charging 2 dollars for a cup of kool-aid is insane. with this kind of customer services, it would be nice if they threw that sugar water in for free. I skipped it, but just thought I would mention if you plan on trying to have some for nostalgic reasons. I haven't had any in about 30 years and I was planning on it but not when I saw the price tag. I live in Illinois, but if I ever do visit again I will call my order in, go sight seeing and then pick up my food. Don't bring your kids to this establishment unless they have confirmed your order is ready!

After placing my order waiting for my takeout out order, I enjoyed the old 70's soul music I grew up on from the loud speaker and reminiscing old times. The service and food are awesome with amazing prices. Some places are charging premium for soul food now. My pork chops were perfect and gave me an extra one for no charge.

I ordered a burger and the cheesesteak egg rolls. The burger was cooked medium-well, just how I wanted it, and it definitely hit the spot. The fries were seasoned well, and the cheesesteak egg rolls were really good too. They came with a house sauce that paired perfectly with them. The restaurant had plenty of seating, and the overall atmosphere was comfortable and laid back. Most importantly, the food delivered when I was craving a good burger. Overall, I had a very good experience and don't really have any negatives to mention. If I'm back in Louisville, I'd definitely stop by again and try some of the other items on their menu. If you're looking for a local spot with good food and a relaxed vibe, I'd say this place is worth checking out.
