Overall this was an amazing experience! [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is a lower level with a bar, and a top floor that overlooks.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were seated immediately on a Saturday evening around 5:45. The hostess was truly wonderful. Service as meh, our waiter unfortunately seemed super annoyed with us. About halfway through, someone kept coming by to clear our plates even though we were still eating. It almost was stressful that she came up probably ten times in such a short period to clear our plates. The food took about 30 minutes to come out. The Cesar salad was phenomenal, charred and grilled with a light dressing. The pan seared chicken and the salmon were both delicious. We ordered a chocolate chip banana bread pudding for desert and it was out of this world amazing. I think we would pass on the buffalo dip in th future, but the foccacia bread was really good with a butter compote. We will for sure be back! I hope the service will be better next time we go! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]So it's a wonderfully lit brick building thin old meets industrial with art on the walls[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Servers are attentive and warm with good info on the menu. So we had the Brioche French Toast warm cinnamon with a caramel sauce and bananas and fresh strawberries. The whip cream was wonderfully not sweet to add a nice layer to the dish. Wonderful brunch place will be back again. read more

The Mixer - Brioche French Toast - New American Near Me - Hopkinsville, Kentucky

Cook was salt heavy on everything except the steaks. Starter Pecan salad was nice and light and the egg rolls were good. Steaks had no seasoning and while cooked correctly, not worth $60 for a 12oz Ribeye nor $53 for an 8oz Filet for so little flavor. Tasted like Walmart bought steaks, nothing special. Sides were loaded with so much salt, my mouth was dry after. Over $150 for 2 later and not satisfied. Server was attentive, polite, quick, and kind. He is the reason it was not a 1 star. He gets a 5, keep it up Reno! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This would be a good spot for a date night because the atmosphere is nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] But only go here if you have hours of conversation topics. Service is so slow. We kept making awkward eye contact with other tables who were waiting forever for their food, just like we were. We just ordered 2 burgers and shrimp and grits, shouldn't take 40 mins to come out. My husband's burger was so greasy, he had to eat it with a knife and fork because it was slipping and sliding. My shrimp and grits was good, but not worth the wait. So an hour and half later, we can finally leave. For 2 burgers and shrimp and grits.... read more

We love the Mixer. I'd go as far as to say it's the best food we've had in the Clarksville/Hopkinsville/Nashville area. Great variety. Fantastic consistency! You can tell the staff and chefs strive for perfection. The owners are wonderful and strive to welcome each patron as family. Oh did I mention the food! Expertly handcrafted with small town prices! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The building is almost as beautiful as the food and they also have a bakery next door that supplies all the Mixer's baked goods.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] So you are also getting fresh baked! If you haven't been you are truly missing out! read more

The food wil not disappoint you. Drinks are nice. It's my go to place when I'm in town.

In February of 2020, I visited this fairly new establishment and said, "this review is just my first," stating plans to come back. Well, right after that, the world shut down and I started working in New York, so dear reader, I did not come back. Until today. Since that time, not only have I changed, but The Mixer has been torn down by a tornado and rebuilt. I had brunch here with a friend. New York has ruined me for all things. I keep that in mind when writing any review. I temper my expectations. The menu has typical brunch fair with a country spin--biscuits Benedict, steak frites, hot honey chicken and waffles, burgers, French toast foster (served on Texas toast), carnitas tacos. My friend and I both had the steak frites on the medium/medium rare side. Could have used a little seasoning, but overall the sauces were good. The fries could have been a little crisper, but they had what I think must have been a parmesan truffle herb seasoning. We were both pleased with the dish. We also had the cajun sausage and pepper egg rolls, which missed the mark for me. They weren't bad, but they just weren't seasoned or crispy. They have a brunch drink menu (blood Marys and mimosas), but you can order from the regular cocktail menu too. I really enjoyed the King's Gambit, made with Bombay Sapphire gin, pear honey syrup, passion fruit syrup, lemon, lime, smoked chili bitters, and ginger ale. Refreshing with a gentle bite. I also had the Monica, made with rum, Gifford peach de Rivne, passionfruit syrup, orgeat, and lemon. Also tasty. My friend's Elaine was also very good. She had a Club 28, which was a little too sweet for us (strawberry syrup and Triple Sec). I'm used to having to make reservations wherever I go in New York. I made a reservation here using Open Table, but it wasn't crowded at all. It wasn't loud or overwhelming, so very easy to have a conversation without yelling. No loud music playing overhead. I would still make a reservation to be safe, because that's the type of person I am, but it was a great vibe. Our server, Caitlin, was funny and down to earth and personable. She made sure we were taken care of and gave us recommendations. She was a fun girl and I'm glad she took care of us today. The bartender and support staff were also super nice and checked in on us from time to time. Dinner service has a nice crispy skin salmon I would be interested in trying, or maybe their tuscan pasta. Was everything perfect here? No. But was the vibe right? Yes. One of the better choices here in this little town. Also in a nice little downtown area next to cute shops. Plenty of parking. I wouldn't hesitate to visit and bring friends again. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Downtown Hopkinsville beautiful place the interior was extremely pleasing[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got there late almost closing on a Wednesday evening seated at the bar, which was fine. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was amazingly populated at that time. Folks seem to be having a really nice time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff was wonderful. I ordered quickly as closing was within 30 minutes. I got the special that night Cajun muscles. The price was quite high for muscles. It came with potatoes, small corn, cob, tomatoes, onion, celery, in a bowl with a couple of pieces of toast. The best thing about the dish was the corn fresh and good the muscles Were also fresh tasting. The broth was tasteless and the toast had rancid fat on it, which ruined it all. The restaurant seems like a popular place so it's worth given another try. For the money I expect top of the line. read more

We happened to be in Hopkinsville and needed to find a place to eat. So happy we stopped by the mixer! The braised pork shank with pepperjack grits was amazing. The meat was seasoned nicely and was falling off the bone. The grits were amazing especially in the pan gravy. It would be a perfect dinner or late lunch but a bit heavy for brunch. The chicken and waffles was phenomenal. The chicken was a thigh making it exceptionally moist. It was crisp and seasoned well. The waffle was fluffy and not too sweet. The whipped maple syrup was a nice touch. They had a nice cocktail and coffee menu including espresso martinis, cappuccinos, etc. We will be back!! Service was good. read more

Everything about this place is 5 stars! We were here from out of town and tried this based on a recommendation from someone we met earlier in the day. Drinks-I ordered a Sierra Madre and a Monica and my husband had two Old Fashioneds, He really enjoyed his and I loved mine, the drinks were not rushed and you can tell they were made with care-not just thrown together. Food-they do a seasonal menu and there were so many great options to choose from. I got the Creole fish tacos and they were so delicious! My husband ordered the bone in pork chop and it was amazing-he couldn't stop raving about how delicious it was. I tried a bite and had to agree-so darn good! Service-friendly and timely, we were never waiting for anything too long. The owners were so great to talk with and gave great recommendations of other places in the area to try. Next time we come back this way-this will be the first place we go! read more

The food was excellent and Shelby and Josh are awesome. Great experience. The cod special was one of my favorites

Service was great and the manager (I assume) actually came out and asked me how I liked the charcuterie board. Really, it's the absolutely best CB I've ever had!! It was arranged beautifully, too. The pepperoni was arranged in a flower and the salami was arranged geometrically. Cool. The main dish was a roast BBQ chicken dish with rice and asparagus. Veggies were wonderful. I was able to eat from the non-spear end and it was super tender! While the asparagus was blackened, it didn't taste burnt at all. White chicken meat is usually dry, but not so with this dish! The BBQ sauce is perfect. As steak was not on the menu, I chose the next best thing. Not sorry, either!! I found out the chef's name is Benito Juarez from Utah and was classically trained by a French chef. Dang! On a Saturday, I'm surprised this place wasn't packed to the rafters with people jonesing for this guy's food. I HIGHLY recommend. I don't usually give 5 stars, but this place... yeah!! read more

So, I've not dined in every restaurant in Hopkinsville KY and haven't spent a ton of time in the city for many years, but if there's a better restaurant than The Mixer in the town I would be shocked. We were going to be in town for a night and wanted to treat a family member to a good dinner and this was recommended in every search I tried. I'm glad it was! This was an excellent dining experience. First off--the reservation process (online) is simple. Secondly, the little touches make all the difference. It's a great layout and ambience/atmosphere, the service was friendly and efficient, everything (including the restrooms) was immaculately clean, the silverware was heavy and high quality, the napkins were top of the line--seriously, not things I typically make note of but it was obvious and elevated the whole experience. Being the holiday season there was Christmas music on rotation--but instrumental, modern, and low key which added to its favor as well. Now--most importantly--the food was excellent. For an appetizer we tried the fried chicken potstickers and they were very good. For an entree, I had the wild mushroom risotto and added steak to it, medium rare. The risotto was top of the line and would have sufficed as a meal but the steak was a nice tough and cooked to order perfectly. Other dishes ordered at our table included the thick bone-in porkchop with fried zucchini and roasted potatoes w/ chimichurri, as well as the Mixer burger with blackened mac'n'cheese. Everyone at my table thoroughly enjoyed their choices and I got to sample a little of each as well--the fried zuchinni were the best of that side I've ever had with breading that made them appear like the best tenders you've ever ordered. The blackened mac'n'cheese with multiple cheeses and a smoky, crunchy baked topping was out of this world. We had room for dessert and opted for the cheesecake and the triple chocolate cake. Both were fantastic. There's an excellent cocktail menu as well, though we didn't utilize it this time around. I'll definitely be back. Located downtown, there's a free lot right beside of it. read more

Amazing! Husband had a special burger that included an egg and avocado...he is in heaven. I had the goat cheese beet salad with sirloin...don't judge me for my beet selection. I love picked bears and theirs are delicious. This is probably my 5th time eating here and they never disappoint. The carrot cake has walnuts you can find and taste wonderful. The people in the kitchen are knocking it out of the park. The Mixer could easily compete in Nashville for top restaurants. Don't let Hopkinsville fool you...this is worth many visits. By the way we drove 30 miles to get here and Nashville is 40 minutes away. read more

When we plan a driving vacation we plot our route based on restaurants we want to eat at. The Mixer was the perfect place to kick off our roadtrip to Florida. The staff is so attentive and engaging. We knew we wanted to go all out and ordered 2 appetizers so we had the smoked deviled eggs and Buffalo fried artichoke hearts. Holy bananas they were amazing... I could have just made a meal of just these two! But since it was a birthday celebration we ordered MORE... My steak was tender and cooked to a hot rare perfection, which takes major skill! The pork chop was juice and HUGE! Sides were delish especially the blackened mac n cheese. Thank you folks at The Mixer for making our kick off to vacation and #67 a wonderful time. We will be back again! read more

This is a place you don't want to miss! Had an early dinner last Friday and everything was delicious. We started with the charcuterie board, which was not too big for the two of us, and the ceviche. It was bursting with a wonderful citrusy flavor which complimented the fish to perfection. We also chose a heirloom salad, but should have read the menu better. It was not heirloom tomatoes as we expected but was good nonetheless, not over dressed. For entrees my husband had salmon and I hade the fresh catch, poki bowl. The tuna was beautiful, it almost looked like cubes of watermelon! And so tender. We were greeted by the owners wife, who couldn't have been any nicer. All of the wait staff is very attentive and are sure to take care of you. [[HIGHLIGHT]]All in all a jewel of a dinner venue![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

What a gem this place is. Atmosphere is amazing! Our waitress, Charity, was so awesome. She was so knowledgeable about the meals and had great recommendations. She was such a vibe and we enjoyed our conversations with her. We had the best meals -- HUGHLY recommend the potstickers, and the porkchops!!! Absolutely AMAZING! And oh my gosh, the desserts were EXQUISITE!!! We had the peanut butter cake , Charity saved us the last piece, and the cheesecake. We could rant and rave about this place. We travel all over and this was one of the best experiences we've had in awhile. Oh, and to top it off their drink selection was amazing. I especially enjoyed the white sangria and my fiancé loved the twist on the old fashion. read more

I am ashamed to say for as long as they have been open I had yet to eat here. The staff was super helpful with describing the salmon as sushi grade,down with the artichoke dip having a kick of tabasco on the end for that snap.

The food was good, but be prepared to wait a really, really long time to get your food, we didn't get out dishes until an hour after getting seated. Both sides on my entree came out incorrectly and only one of the two was offered to be corrected. 20% gratuity was added to our check for a group of 8, and not sure if that was made known before ordering. read more

So glad I tried The Mixer! Visiting from Minneapolis, and although I love me some southern comfort I was looking for something.. a little less fried.. to prepare me for some hot chicken and mac the next day :) We got take out to bring back to our hotel and I loved that I could get alch to go! Everything was bomb from the salad to the poke bowl to the fries (couldn't have a totally unfried meal lol). Their poke was like a mix between a poke and ceviche to me - LOVED the coconut rice.
