Thanks to Karli our waitress who was so very nice and asked us what we liked. She gave fantastic recommendations which we took her up on. For the bowls (bibimbap) we had the stir fried vegetable with added pork and the Al Pastor bowl which had pineapple in it which I'm a sucker for. Karli then explained the sushi varieties. We got two that were huge and so delicious. I really wanted the Lemongrass Miso Soup but thought it was too hot outside for soup. Karli said give it a try anyway and I'm glad I did. Outside btw was not bad at all. Very cool setting with high top full bench patio with cool greenery surrounding it. The overhead fans made it extremely nice as well. Just a most wonderful dining experience all the way for a special wedding anniversary dinner.

Time for another update of Time 4 Thai!…read more I was craving noodles. It had been a long day. Cue delivery and cue pad thai from Time 4 Thai! My food arrived quickly and was just what I needed. The pad thai was filling with just the right amount of spice. It's hard to judge pad thai because every place makes it a little differently and you just know when it's good or not -- this was perfect pad thai IMO! I also got some shrimp fresh rolls with peanut sauce, an absolute must of an appetizer. This meal brightened my day probably more than it should have, but hey, I'll take it. Love that Time 4 Thai is so close and is easy to count on for good food.

Big bummer. It's not advertised that they're closed for 2 hours in the afternoon on Sundays.read more

I was fortunate to be with a large party and we decided to order several dishes and share. Everything was delicious, and the banana flower salad was memorable and we ordered two. I'd also recommend the veggie sides, carrots, bok choy, and brussels sprouts. Chik'n & Mi is a wonderful place for a date, solo dining or spending time with friends. Overall, this is a wonderful place that accommodated all of our needs.

Five stars, no notes. I love this place…read more The staff is so welcoming, funny, and great at what they do. Every time I have a cocktail it is delightfully balanced. I think my cocktail was called the Tokyo Pop? Not positive but you have to get it. Gin, bubbles, sake, and a hint of lemon in a flute glass. Refreshing, a hint of sweet, a hint of lemon, and extremely drinkable. It would be too easy to throw a ton of these back. But I was demure and had one. I enjoyed the calamari--my go-to here. Crispy, with a bit of heat from pickled peppers, a bit a of sweet form a sweet glaze, and a nice herby zing from mint, herbs, and scallions. They also top the calamari with a a nice portion of greens dressed in a lemon vinaigrette, making this appetizer feel close to a light meal. I am absolutely obsessed with the ponzu mayo that comes on the side. An absolutely delightful touch. I also enjoyed the chocolate cream pot. Talk about decadent. I love that it is served with berries, because you need that tartness to balance out the richness. Fully indulgent. Bonus points: I working fireplace. (And holiday decor still up--this never bothers me.) The ambiance is always lovely, with something iconic on the TV always playing. This spot is one of my fave representation of the Louisville food scene.

We were able to sit, visit, order and eat, have birhday cake (which we brought), open presents and not feel rushed or pressured tp leave the establishment. There are 4 resturants, a cheesecake vendor and a full bar insde the open air building all sharing the same dining space. My husband and I went back this afternoon for an early dinner . Over the two days we shared, nachos (loaded with bacon, chicken, cheese, and chives) a hamburger and fries, korean bbq and hibachi chicken. All were extremely tasty, with the exception of the Korean bbq, which was just OK. We went back for the hibachi chicken it was good good. You prder at onw of the 4 counters ,pay and are given a number to pur on your table. They then bring the food to your table. The chef from the hibachi vendor came to check on us adter we were eating to see of we were satisfied. That was kind. Both days they were out of egg rolls. Street parking and a lot off of third street behind the building

Torn between a 3 and a 4 for this food hall…read more Here are the opportunities: could be cleaner in general, a couple of places were not open, and my clothes and purse smell like fried food afterwards. Utensils are self-service and you bus your own table, but are still encouraged to tip when ordering. My veggie bowl was fine. One member of our party reported that her burger was bland even though it was swimming in cheese sauce and had extra jalapeños. Positives: the seven of us ate from 3 different vendors. Most people enjoyed their food. Street parking was easy and I saw a sign saying free parking in the back. Cocktails are available from one vendor, and they have a trivia night. The atmosphere was lively but not super loud. I think adding a few more vendors and doing some deep cleaning would bring this place up to a 4. I plan to return to try the sushi.

The ingredients are well portioned for the price from my experience and they have plenty of employees who know how to help you decide. They know the menu well and most are people who have worked there since the beginning or at least from their days in Mid City Mall. The new location is an insanely cool improvement too and they have a doggo fenced in outside on good weather days who likes pets and his names Bomi. Pic is old I will take new photos next time
