    Boneless Wings

    Dined in on a Saturday night, it took 1.5 hours to receive our food order. Pictured are the wings for $16. Ambiance is nice, but I recommend sitting at the bar and ordering drinks only.

It looked like there is a stage near the entrance so I believe they might have live music some days! The bathrooms were clean and the restaurant was orderly. They were working on decorating the restaurant for the holidays but that didn't bother me at all! 5/5 Overall: 15/15 ! The restaurant is a nice spot for sports but also for a nice date night!

I attended a bingo night here where I organized a party for my aunt and it was just awful. This bar should not offer to host events as they clearly do not have the staffing or the space to do so. I was treated quite disrespectfully from start to finish simply for trying to set up a few small birthday decorations. And they're impossible to reach by phone in order to plan ahead for your group. Don't expect them to cater to any of your parties' needs or assign a dedicated server to your group. For the amount of money spent on this event and brought to their business I expected far better treatment. As for the bingo night, again awful coordination and execution. The place was jam packed and no one could hear the bingo caller. They have shitty speakers/microphone so don't bother trying to actually play bingo, you won't hear anything. Oh and they're 0% handicap friendly, don't expect them to accommodate anyone with mobility limitations. In summary, I would never host another event at this bar and I hope this review encourages others to look elsewhere. Completely disorganized and a pain to work with. Take your business elsewhere.

    exactly as I expected, gilt bar was phenomenal - the beef…read moretartare was the best I've ever had, it was so filled with flavor, every bite tasted like a beef salad. the egg was jammy and delicious adding a new layer of richness to the meal. the bread it came with was FRESH, hard crispy crust surrounding thick cuts of spongey bread - the truffle malfadine was perfectly cooked long chewy noodles with the perfect amount of a truffle pepper sauce over them. certain bites had full peppercorns, breaking through the slight creaminess. - I had high hopes for the burger and was picturing a bougie restaurant thick cut juicy burger. it was fascinating because it had the same juicy soft flavor, but it was more of a Smashburger style so you had a little bit of crisp on the outside and instead of a thick singular patty, it was two on top of each other. the fries were solid (not very salty which was divisive) but the aioli elevated the fries and burger to a new level, huge points - Guinness here is so cheap. my dirty martini was dirty as all hell and delicious. the service was so kind and attentive and brought out extra ice cream with hot fudge for my birthday. the carrot cake was incredibly moist and tasted like real carrots, nuts, and spices, not enough frosting for me tho hehe - this is literally such a stunning restaurant with a photo booth and a downstairs sultry bar, and an open standing space around the bar upstairs. I get why it is always booked. If I was to come back, I would do it all again except ...maybe instead of the burger... try something else hmm

    (Kari's Rating 710)…read more Although I've been here many times before, guilt bar rarely disappoints. It is extremely dark when you're inside almost like a dining room parlor so if you have bad eyes, bring a flashlight. It's relatively loud and the servers are very attentive, refilling water, and checking in on your needs. We started with a round of drinks, including an espresso martini, as well as a Hugo spritz. The espresso martini was nice because it was made for cold brew, which made it actually creamer, which was really great. It's good I mean we also proceed to order the Bronzino as well as the French dip with the side brussels sprouts. The brussels sprouts were tangy and sweet with a vinaigrette finish, but they were delightfully, smoky as well. The Bronzino was delicious and very filling, however, I did end up getting a decent amount of tiny bones in the first half which kind of made me slow down in the second half. The French tip was also very large, with four pieces as well as a warm au jus. However, the ratio of meat to bread was slightly off with a little extra, toasted bread, being a little too much. Overall, it was a pretty great dinner, I would definitely come back in a group, but I'm not sure if I would come back alone.

Never heard of this place and I am beyond past any bar, lounge or club type situation but again we were invited for a birthday party and had no idea what to expect. We ordered food and drinks and were in the VIP section which had a huge tv and was streaming the game. The music was very tame and if you like that type of music very non lethal, very old school. Folks dressed normal and acted like they had sense! Plenty of parking and no issues

    Update: I've been in contact with the owner and manager of this establishment. What I appreciate…read morethe most is that the issue was acknowledged, and apologies were given immediately after notifying management, which shows they care about delivering great service. That means the world to me! I do look forward to my next visit. I went here Saturday with my girls, and the vibe was on point, but the service from one of the bartenders left a bad taste. I want to extend some grace because it was extremely crowded and only a few bartenders were working, so one would expect a longer wait. However, when trying to order a 2nd round of drinks after tipping 20% our requests were repeatedly dismissed while others that came behind us were being served. When we finally did get served, I didn't realize my friend had paid for my drink and I put $15 on the bar for it. Once my girl told me she had already paid for my drink, I asked the bartender for my money back. She told me I only put $10 and despite my witnesses correcting her, she took it upon herself to STEAL $5 from me. In the future, I will not request service from this particular bartender. Other than that, it was a great time, and I look forward to my next visit!

After eating here 7 times now, I can say this place is pretty amazing. It gets better every time we come in. Opening weeks here were pretty rough- huge crowds, service was slow, etc, everything you'd expect from a popular new joint in a town that has needed a sushi restaurant. Every time I have been in since, though, it gets better and better. The waitstaff are now seasoned and can handle busy nights with ease. Bartenders make awesome and unique cocktails. The main draw is the cuisine, though. It's Korean/Japanese fusion. Beyond sushi, they have some exceptional Korean-inspired dishes. Even my super finicky daughters find stuff on the menu they love. My wife and sons love all the sushi, while I like to bounce around and try anything interesting and new. The ambience is super cool, and the servers know their stuff. It's so fantastic to have a place like this in downtown Frankfort. While we love our longtime restaurants, it's great having new stuff to enjoy- especially food as unique and creative as this. 5 well-deserved stars.

    Terrible customer service They will not take your order over…read morethe phone, they tell you to go online, but they don't tell you that online orders are turned off 1/2 hour before they close!! When I called back they still refused to take my order! That's ok, much better sushi at every other sushi restaurant in Frankfort, and better prices !!
