    Queso, guac, salsa
    DeAngelo W.

    Stopped in because I was in the mood for a good marg and some tacos! The staff was attentive and welcoming. The place had lots of open tables upon arrival but quickly filled up! It was open and airy and the acoustics were not too loud. We ordered some Chips with salsa, queso, and guacamole. The chips came in a plastic branded bag with Verde on it. They were warm and delicious. The salsa and guacamole were yummy! The queso was PHENOMENAL. I'd come back just for some chips and queso. I also ordered a couple of tacos and a margarita. They were both an underwhelming crescendo. The asada was lacking flavor. The Korean beef taco didn't fuse together. I was looking forward to a tasty marg and unfortunately it missed the mark. The server let me know they were known for their tacos. I may have to come back to try some others to see if it was just an off night.

    I've been in twice now and both times have been ~chef's kiss~ awesome! I don't know why it has taken me so long to write my review, but today's visit reminded me that I had the draft and needed to hype up Verde. Louisville has been one of my favorite places for as long as I can remember- I went to the Melting Pot on more than one occasion as a child, and even loved the atmosphere of the town way back when. Verde is newer, but it ticks all of the right boxes for me. Parking has never been a problem, the ambiance is super casual and welcoming, food is awesome (we will get to that later!), and staff have always been so friendly. I have only ever been during lunch, though, so keep this in mind; dinner is probs a whole different beast. The menu is very straightforward... so many things look yummy and it might be a struggle to choose because of that, but I have not yet been disappointed by a meal I've had; it has only been twice, but I still think that's awesome lol. The ingredients are a fresh, tasty, and clean. Onto the "meat" of the review... lol. Both times I have been in, we've gotten great recommendations from the ladies and gents that have waited on us - I'd also like to mention that the staff have great camaraderie and definitely seem to support one another super well, which is super friggin cool. First time we were in, I got a classic burrito with chicken. Super simple, but so yummy. Second time I had a hard time choosing, but went with the ahi tuna bowl... I was not disappointed this time either. Both meals were amazingly fresh and filling, but not too filling. I gotta say though, I was extra impressed by the ahi tuna bowl... I had no clue that I wanted and made a split second decision on that one, but it was the most amazing thing, I swear. BF got the enchiladas the first go around, and the California burrito the second time. He loved his enchiladas, but the burrito was mostly fries and was covered in cheese. I think he said he had a couple bites that had steak, which was kind of a bummer. Price point is very reasonable, the restaurant is clean and inviting, and portions are perfect for a nice lunch. I'd like to see what the dinner experience is all about at some point!

    Louisville is always a good visit, and Verde is one of its best options. Located right in the heart of the vibrant downtown district, Verde offers both interior (two levels) and outside seating. The place has a great vibe, and its customer service is at a high level. There's a good bar inside, and their outdoor seating offers a glimpse of the fun atmosphere that is so Louisville. Plenty of nearby parking and the RTD Dash line stops about 100' away! I loved their salsa and guacamole, with three different salsas that all were outstanding, and then totally loved the three taco plate that was incredibly tasty. They handled COVID quite well throughout the compromise, and I am looking forward to enjoying their work in a less compromised state.

    Good social distancing set up . Tacos were smaller then I am used to . My fish taco was like two Bites but flavor was good. The carne asada taco also Too small!

    Chicken quesadilla
    Caitlin H.

    We recently moved to the area, and wanted to try Verde for lunch. My husband picked up a takeout order that was horrible. To start, the quesadilla was so greasy it was orange in color and so salty I could barely choke it down. Apparently you have to request sour cream and salsa to accompany the quesadilla, even though the photo they show includes these items. Maybe I'm hangry, but all I can say is Verde did not do it for me today. Sorely disappointed.

    Coconut Fish Taco
    Alice C.

    We came here because Huckleberry was closed. I got the 3 pc taco and my friend got the chicken Fajita quesadilla. She did not enjoy the quesadilla that much as she felt the chicken was dry and the peppers were cut too big. She would not get those again. I got four tacos, carne asada, al pastor, ahi tuna, and coconut fish. The carne asada taco the meat itself was very dry, and not flavorful. The al pastor was ok I don't think it was flavorful either and I actually didn't like the skin they choose for it a little dry. I loved the ahi tuna taco, the shell they used was a wonton shell. The coconut fish I felt it was beet slaw overload. The price point you can find better tacos elsewhere for that quality. The food came out quickly but the service was slow, as we were out of water but they never came....

    Nachos
    Leeza F.

    Ordered a plate of nachos - the chips are good and came with a lot of sour cream. The ambience was hit and miss. I appreciated the open track garage windows but the tables are wobbly and there are stacks of boxes along the walls. The plumbing smell in the bathroom area is overwhelming. Next, the service: we experienced a man from the bar as the waiter. No greeting, no personality, just collected our order and basically was never seen again. Overall I was expecting a bit more from this place as I desire restaurants in the area that care about service and culinary craft.

    Chicken quesadilla
    Marybeth P.

    Came for dinner with two kids. We ordered: chips, salsa fundido and guacamole, a Mexican coke, lemonade, and margarita, for entrees we ordered a chicken quesadilla, chicken tacos, vegetarian Chile relleno, and kids nachos with chicken. Our meal came out to $99 with our tip My thoughts: It was a LOT of food. Every single one of us had a whole separate serving of our meal left over (but felt it wouldn't keep as leftovers so we didn't take it home), The chips were delicious and warm and fresh but the salsas felt boring and not 'fresh' or exciting. The fundido was a little spicy for our kids. Nothing was bad about the meal, but it felt a bit unexciting other than the giant portions The margarita was really strong for our taste- some folks will love this so it's neither a pro or a con It was definitely filling and everything was cooked well and plenty of seasoning Service was good, our server was friendly, checked on us several times and brought extra salsa and sour cream upon request

    Gluten free enchiladas!

    Great food, atmosphere and service! Great hometown feel, lively with great drinks. Will be back!

    Spicy Brussels sprouts.
    Cecile H.

    We had dinner at verde. Weather was great. They had multiples tables outside. The tables are at least 6 feet apart for social distancing. I had a spicy margarita and spicy Brussels sprouts. The margarita was yummy. The sprouts came in a big portion. They were ok. But somehow the sprouts were overcooked. The staff was very friendly. They were all wearing masks.

This time, lady is kind enough to remove coleslaw (it's spicy) in my own opinion, I don't like it, especially mixed into my food. Cost of an enchilada is $16.02. In some pictures online, it's shown with tomatoes, lettuce & sour cream, but noticed when ordering, below it says, you've to pay extra for tomatoes $1.00; lettuce $1.03; and sour cream $1.55. Lady on phone is kind enough to make an inquiry (it's not an option) to exchange coleslaw for lettuce, In the end, I paid for tomatoes $1.00, exchanged Cole slaw for lettuce and no sour cream, subtotal $17.02; added taxes & fees, equals $21.06. It's been lengthy time since we've returned. After, my last review, I'd place orders & it would be intentionally made spicy, added coleslaw (even mixed into) enchiladas. And, someone would ensure my meal wasn't to my liking and left me unable to consume. However, it's been some years ago, soon after their opening and they're aware, I don't eat spicy foods. I'm disabled, stuck to home & my husband is my sole caregiver. He doesn't cook, did his best to provide, which means utilizing what surrounds us. Considering where we live, we're limited to, authentic Mexican food that's easily accessible to our home. Again, I think, some years back, we ate once inside the establishment. I can't comment on ambience, it's to-go orders for us.

    $26 for 1 margarita!!!…read more I've enjoyed this restaurant many times in the past, so I was really disappointed by my most recent experience. I ordered a Casamigos margaritas, something I've ordered here many times before for $16. When the bill came, I was shocked to see I'd been charged $26 for one margarita--the full $12 margarita price plus an additional $14 for Casamigos. I completely understand an upcharge for premium tequila, and I expected one. What I did not expect was to essentially be charged for both a margarita and a separate full-priced shot. Most importantly, our server never mentioned that choosing Casamigos would bring the price of a single margarita to $26. When I questioned the charge, the restaurant would not adjust it and instead offered a 5% discount, which unfortunately didn't feel like a meaningful resolution. Out of curiosity, I called two other Mexican restaurants in town, Teocalli and Verde, and both quoted me $16 for a Casamigos margarita. I'm sharing this mainly as a heads-up to other customers: if you request a specific tequila in your margarita, I strongly recommend asking exactly what the final drink price will be before ordering. A $26 margarita without any warning was a very unpleasant surprise. It felt shady, and I won't be returning.
