Great first impression. First, Morgan took great care of us and offered several menu suggestions - and got us in for $3 off a starter minutes before the special ended. We hadn't had a mozzarella wheel in ages. This was a good one, especially the marinara sauce. The beer battered cod with two sides is a great choice or the 2- or 4-pc fried chicken. If you're a fan of chicken fried chicken with gravy, this was a large portion. We tried the fried green tomatoes, broccoli slaw, mashed potatoes, and green beans as sides. The tomatoes came with a sauce and it had a kick of heat. We weren't big fans of the green beans, mainly because they took the flavor of the broth they'd been cooked in. The menu is huge. We noted we'd gotten a lot of fried items; however, The Goose offers more variety to avoid that. The space is large and can accommodate groups. The parking lot is shared with other businesses and has several spots. read more

If you like southern home cooked cuisine then you'll enjoy this restaurant. The fried green tomatoes are to do for. Chicken livers crispy with a white gravy to complement on the side. Macaroni and cheese was creamy. The sauce for the ribeye hot brown was delicious. Will definitely be back to try another dish. read more

Came on a Friday evening and it was busy but there were plenty of open tables. Service seemed kind of slow but the staff seemed busy. Running around trying to clean tables, bring out plates, check on customers. I ordered a sweet tea right away. It came with a free refill. The first one was watered down but the second glass tasted a lot better. Smooth and refreshing. Not too sweet either. I'd order again! We ordered some apps to try: fried green tomatoes and BBQ chicken wings. Delicious! And bigger portions than we thought! We finished the tomatoes but had to take home the wings. For my entree, I got chicken fried chicken. Food comes with 2 sides. I tried the Caesar salad and Mac and cheese. The Caesar was good. Pretty big for it being a side salad! The Mac and cheese was okay. Kinda lacking in flavor. I like it cheesy with a bit of a crust on top from being in the oven. This just wasn't that. The chicken was good but large! Not bad. Usually it's pounded thin. Still good though! My family got: chicken tenders with fries and green beans, 2 piece dark with mashed potatoes and green beans, and grilled chicken with fries and mixed vegetables. Portion sizes weren't bad. Again, it's a lot of food! You really don't need to get apps unless you're super hungry. They have a lot of TVs in every angle so you can catch ESPN. We didn't stay too long to catch any games. Overall, I like it here! It's a good spot to find southern cooking. read more

If I could rate this place 10 stars I would! Our experience from the time we walked in until we left was top notch all around. The lady who sat us was super nice, and Desmond our waitress was phenomenal! She kept our drinks full and even brought to go drinks. She was also respectful of my son's tree nut allergy. Pecans are a huge trigger on him and she made sure no items that had touched the pecans touched his food. This momma is very appreciative of that. The food was hands down the best home town cooking I've had in a long time and the prices here are so good. We live about 2 1/2 hours away and will definitely come back if we are down here for an event in the future. Thank you for excellent experience. To the owner- you have amazing staff! read more

This place was super busy for a weeknight! So that's always a good sign! Despite being busy, the food came out super quick! I loved the fried green tomatoes with comeback sauce. The classic hot brown was also delicious. The portions are HUGE. Definitely didn't need an appetizer beforehand, but the appetizer was worth it! The vegetarian hot brown, on the other hand, was not great. The fried mushroom that makes up the base of the hot brown got super soggy in the sauce, and it was a very random assortment of vegetables on top without much flavor. However, props for having a vegetarian hot brown option on the menu! Plenty of parking in a lot for the strip mall! read more

Tonight my husband and I stopped in for dinner. I ordered the large chef salad with ranch and added shrimp -- it was delicious and really hit the spot. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly portioned. My husband went with the jalapeño burger (not pictured), and he really enjoyed it too. Our waitress was young and seemed pretty new, so she wasn't totally familiar with the menu yet, but she was sweet, attentive, and clearly doing her best -- which goes a long way in my book. Overall, The Goose remains one of those dependable neighborhood gems -- tasty food, friendly service, and a welcoming vibe. We'll definitely be back! read more

Finally made it back for a visit after the move to the new location and shift in atmosphere. Still a quality spot. Lots of diner style, home style food options (I'm a sucker for a classic country fried steak, and they have a good one), plus some fun options (I am also a sucker for a hot brown, and they have some quality variants). The addition of the full bar is nice (old spot had beer and wine only as I recall), but it's a little inconsistent in cocktail quality and speed of bar service--by no means a deal-breaker, to be clear, and just get a nice bourbon or a beer if needed! Service is friendly and attentive, space is clean. All told, perfectly decent spot to grab a good meal, which is often exactly what I'm looking for! read more

Ordered take out over the phone with the wonderful Ms Marie who's such a gem! Thank you so much for assisting me and really taking care of me! Great thinking with the drinks with no carrier- it worked and as good as it could! The food was delicious as usual. But our absolute favorite is the chicken livers. My word. It was the first time ordering them and they are FIRE So good and they're actually seasoned. So so good! We also tried the fried green tomatoes which are also good- the creek sauce with them and a little franks hot sauce was really good! We got our usual salmon spinach salad and this time tried it with smoky tomato dressing- really good but we still love the balsamic dressing. Thanks again Ms Marie!! read more

Overall a pretty good place to eat. The mashed potatoes had an odd flavor so probably won't get them again but the fried green tomatoes were very good read more

We went to The Goose for birthday desserts after having dinner elsewhere for my husbands birthday celebration. The 4 of us shared a piece of coconut cream pie, a piece of decadant chocolate cake and a piece of carrot cake. All three desserts were excellent, the coconut cream pie was my favorite but others preferred the cake. So all were winners. Nice setting with a nice menu. Located in a strip mall so plenty of parking. They also have a full bar. Our server was friendly and efficient and made us fresh decafinated coffee wirh was a good tasty, not too strong cup of joe. We will go back for a full meal. read more

Great find for a Sunday brunch after hitting up Robinson Park. They offered a brunch menu or a dinner menu and we all went with the brunch except my husband got a club sandwich. They offer a kids menu, including kids crayons to keep them entertained. My kids loved the pancakes and bacon. The pancakes were delicious and they kept asking for more. I tried the sausage lovers biscuits and it was a lot of food but really good. My husband tried the sandwich and really enjoyed that and the fries kept ending up on my plate. I couldn't stop eating them. What a great find and if we're in the area again will definitely be back. read more

The Goose is good. It is unpretentious and delivers quite well what it should aspire to. I'll go back.

The Goose is a great little restaurant with a neighborhood feel. I've been there several times and had good service, food, and a good time. That said, this past Sunday, early evening,, not so good. Our waitress, E, greeted me several times as "darlin" and "hon" although I am several decades older. I ordered Bourbon Lemon Drop - delicious! but served 15 minutes after my husband's beer, and just as the entree arrived. The broccoli slaw tasted great but I couldn't eat it because it and the bowl was lukewarm- Don't want food poisoning! The chicken fried chicken was almost too salty to eat. The berry cake was delicious as take out. read more

We went to The Goose last night for the first time. The restaurant was pretty, modern, and very clean. We were greeted by a very friendly, very tall man, and we were seated immediately. Our waiter was Stan, and he took great care of us all evening. We started off with the fried green tomatoes. They came out quickly and VERY HOT! They are the best I've ever tasted. They were coated in the crispiest, most flavorful coating imaginable! The tomatoes were super tangy & delicious. They were served with a tangy & spicy dip. It was excellent! That dip would go well on anything! I've had a LOT of shrimp & grits in my life. Coming from Maryland, I know good seafood, too. This huge portion of shrimp & grits was hands down, the best I've ever had! Every single ingredient was perfectly prepared!! Even the least of them was thoughtfully done. The finely diced onions, celery, and peppers were all cut uniform, ensuring they all cooked evenly. The spices were bold and super flavorful. There was just enough spice to enhance all the natural flavors. The gravy was SO good! The sausage and shrimp were incredible. The grits were creamy and delicious!! There isn't anything remotely negative that I can say about this dish! (It was also served with 2 perfectly baked, scratch made, bread sticks.) My friend got the traditional hot brown. It made an impactful impression when they sat it on the table! It was HUGE and beautiful!! The robust flavors in the cheese sauce were mind-blowing! I tasted it, and my eyes just closed while it melted in my mouth. (I'd eat that sauce off the ground. It was that good!!) There was a ton of turkey on it, and I'm talking real turkey. It didn't appear to be deli turkey at all. The acid from the tomatoes went great with the rich cheese sauce. The bacon was abundent and perfectly cooked! My friend ordered the lemon, berry, blueberry cake dessert. I was full, but she insisted I take a bite. Im so glad I did! HOLY COW!!!!! Do not leave without getting this dessert! If you're full, take it to go, like we did. We've all seen the lemon blueberry combination, but I dare you to find one better than this! Tons of lemon flavor and lots of blueberries along with that moist cake were insanely delicious!! Neither of us finished our meals so we got to take home leftovers!! YAY!!! (I've already eaten mine and it is just as delicious as last night!!) We're already planning our next trip to The Goose! Do yourself a favor and go there immediately!! read more

Service was top notch by a young African American male. He did a great job. BUT the food was a disappointment. Definitely not what you would expect from a restaurant with a 4.5 star rating. I got the marinated pork chops. You usually expect something that is marinated to be tender. These were pretty tough. Flavor was good, just too tough to eat. The green beans were pretty good, and. The cheese grits were ok . I won't be back read more

Same great food as the prior location with the friendly welcoming service in a clean, new, and modern setting. A little bit more of a drive for us, but well worth it! Fried chicken is always good. Can't go wrong with fish and chips. And once every now and then, you have to have fried chicken livers. This is the place! read more

The Goose Eatery & Hangout - Chicken livers with side of gravy and ranch dressing. - Diners Near Me - Lyndon, Kentucky

Great food, well appointed especially the bar area, but as others have noted the staff needs more training. Nothing wrong with having a young staff, but the place is small, and I overheard them disparaging one of their customers, and discussing the different types of marijuana. Lots of servers were standing around, and I felt bad for the poor bartender as she was in the weeds all night (she was running it solo, and the manager never helped out). A little more attention to these issues from mgmt and could be a great local spot. read more

Wife and I tried this place for the first time tonight. We were excited - Thursdays are our weekly date night: we pick a place we haven't tried, only sit at the bar, and order cocktails and dinner. We sat down at the bar around 7:15pm and each ordered a cocktail - she got a Peaches & Cream Martini and I had a Strawberry Coconut Margarita - both were listed as specialty drinks on the menu. Unfortunately the bartender had to look up both recipies in the book to know how to make them, which took a while. She explained that she's only been bartending once a week and hadn't been at the bar in a while. No biggie - she was very friendly and we enjoyed chatting with her. We then ordered a meatball appetizer and split the Frisco Burger. I was impressed that they halved the sandwich and the fries and brought separate plates out to us - a nice touch. Food was very good. However, the service left a lot to be desired - the bartender was friendly but would repeatedly walk by as she was putting up glassware or chit-chatting with coworkers without even looking our way to check on us. Any time we needed something - another drink, a box, our check, we had to flag her down. And the place wasn't busy. When my water was empty, she even took the glass as if she was getting me a refill and never brought it back. LOL 3-4 staff were congregating at the end of the bar off and on and would just hang out, look at their phones, etc. We felt kind of ignored. My wife is usually a glass half-full person and gets on my case when I complain about something at restaurants (as if I'm being too picky), but even she commented, "She's not a very good bartender," toward the end of our meal. All of that being said, I do want to try this place for brunch, so we will do that at some point. On the way out, I asked my wife how she would rate The Goose overall on a scale of 1 to 5 and she said 3. I would agree, so that's the score. read more

First timer, two adults and a toddler. It was pretty empty at 730pm on a Wednesday. Cute place...on one side there's a bar and the other side is seating. The hostess asked if we wanted a booth, which was mindful and worked great for our daughter. Their menu is pretty extensive and they also have seasonal specials. We started off with a couple of old fashioned's...hubs ordered the smoked one, which came with all the smoke. I ordered the chocolate old fashioned, which gave subtle espresso martini vibes. Good kids menu...she enjoyed her chicken and steamed broccoli. My husband ordered the prime hot brown and while he enjoyed it, he said he wished he would've ordered the original. I had the blackened caesar wrap with fries which was on the seasonal menu. They put the wrap on the grill, which made everything nice and warm. It was delicious. I gave most of my fries to the others, but they were hot and crispy. Overall, good service vibes and food. We'll be back soon to try more. read more

This place was absolutely amazing! The food was to die for and the staff was incredible. They let us charge our phone at the hostess station and we got a fun little picture when we picked it back up. read more

Food was good and service was good. Table was too small for four diners. We were holding bowls and plates.

First time at their new building. Went with another couple at 5:30 pm yesterday. Place was filthy. Lots of food and napkins strewn all over the floor. We should have just left. I asked the waitress if she could sweep by our table. She did. Food was average. Waitress did a good job. We don't plan on returning. read more

The food was excellent! I had liver & onions, cheese grits, and twice steamed broccoli (special request) and every bite was perfection! The service was a bit slow, but that was quickly forgiven once the food arrived. The ambience was upbeat, yet relaxed and laid-back. It was a great time! I'm from Florida and have been to Louisville three times in the last five months I have been to The Goose four times in the last five months! read more

Brand name change but still has all the classics from Goose Creek and they're still just as delicious! The Goose is certainly on my list of "Best of Louisville" due to their consistent product quality and exemplary service. While they've made some menu changes, likely due to rising costs, they still deliver on value. My only wish is that they would bring back some of the items that made them famous i.e. potato salad, bean soup, cornbread. Either way, this food will stick to your ribs and leave you feeling satisfied. Fried green tomatoes and creek sauce is the best in Louisville, change my mind! read more
