    Omelette with three meats
    Rose F.

    Nice little breakfast/lunch spot near Kentucky Arts Distillery. Stopped here before our tasting for a quick breakfast. I loved the choices offered. I had the Avocado toast with fruit and hubs had the omelette with the three meats (can't remember name) - delicious! It's order at the counter and food brought out. As a side note the potatoes were sooo good. Prices reasonable and friendly service.

    Great little place I found (due to Yelp!) that is near a distillery we are touring. Has a great relaxed atmosphere. Very cozy. Mismatched tables and chairs. You order at the counter and they deliver your food and drinks. We shared a homemade cinnamon roll which they warmed up and served before our meals were served. I had the Signature Burrito. It it is stuffed with ingredients. It was good except it had tomato jam in it, which was a little sweet and not something i care for in my burrito. My wife had eggs, bacon, and taters. The bacon was some kind of smoked bacon and crispy. Very good. Also the taters were very nicely seasoned and perfectly roasted. I had coffee, but found it pretty bland and could do for an upgrade. Overall a great place and I would definitely recommend it.

    Beignets

    The beignets were so good and so was the iced sweet tea and so sad that I couldn't eat more of them because I was saving room for funnel cake at the state fair.

    Sausage & Bacon Quesadilla shared!

    Lovely find in C'wood, friendly service and delicious breakfast quesadilla shared with hubby

    In an attempt to find a local business for brunch, the original one chosen had a 1 hour waitlist. That definitely tells you it's good if people will wait. However, given we had driven over an hour and were now hangry, we needed somewhere close and quick. Another online review source gave this place high marks as it was here or the chain breakfast restaurant closer to where we started. Called in to hear that they were steadily busy but not crazy. The GPS confused us because the sign on where to turn and what the GPS said didn't match, which made us miss the turn. This quaint little cafe is tucked in the corner of a small strip mall. It looks like it used to be part of a drive thru take out place before as there was a drive up window and an unconnected order menu board. This is ideal spot for the local neighborhood and you can tell it's well liked as there was a steady stream of patrons in/out for sit down and take out. They had a cute little breakfast bar with pastries that is ideal for a grab and go thing. The bar has bourbon barrel seats which definitely keeps you in the KY atmosphere. We arrived a little close to 1230pm. There were a couple tables ready to sit at but had to ask for someone to clean up. The table next to us had a small family seated before us. We noticed that although the table top was cleaned, the chairs and floor with the crumbles from the Littles was not swept up. Although it wasn't filthy, it was a little distracting when we realized the next person who sat down didn't realize they sat on food. The staff are either high school or early college students. All were pleasant and helpful. Hubby ordered the biscuits and gravy. When I asked why he didn't order any sides he said we were already rung up our order that didn't give him a chance to ask. Of course, that's also his fault for not speaking up (haha). My order was the French Toast which was supposed to come with a bourbon Maple syrup and pecans. Not a big pecan fan so it wasn't a big deal it was missing but there wasn't even a hint of bourbon detected. The extra egg and sausage ordered was perfect and a good choice for sides. It's just too bad they didn't include it as part of the order. My suggestion would be to order the classic if you want a traditional big breakfast. The steel cut oatmeal bowls looked appealing and good portion. The same with the beignets they offer. The gravy was a disappointment. Although not a bad flavor, when you've grown up with SOS style gravy the expectations are a bit high. From what it tasted the gravy is more of a chicken base than a sausage based flavoring that we're used to enjoying. This isn't necessarily a bad thing but helpful to know if you are expecting what we did. Overall, it is in hopes that Hardin County opens up something like this place for us to enjoy closer to home. If you're in Oldham County,this may be a good option for a quaint weekend place that's not insanely busy with decent food and service.

    BYO Omelette, biscuit, potato

    Greatttt omelette! Potato's were so crispy and hot! Biscuit felt homemade in the best way

    Caprese omlet with egg whites and avocado.  Almond cream cold brew Biscuits and gravy
    Liz K.

    Quaint little breakfast nook. Food was tasty and cold brew was strong. Service was friendly and helpful. Wish they didn't have cleaning supplies and trash can in view behind the counter and maybe some music playing. Minor issues compared to a great overall experience will definitely recommend this place.

The amount of variety on the menu was pretty nice, looks like there's something here for most people. I had the Cobb Salad and was happy with the amount of colorful vegetables and toppings on my plate. It comes with mixed greens (glad to see more salads with mixed greens instead of romaine), roasted chicken, nice crispy bacon, a hardboiled egg, blue cheese, black olives, tomato, avocado and a good amount of dressing. It tastes very fresh and is a decent portion size, but in terms of flavor there wasn't much going on. It tastes like "greens" and that's kinda it. I don't know what the cause is, like it's seasoned but I just didn't get much flavor. Perhaps my pallet prefers stronger flavors over lighter ones, so take this with a grain of salt (figuratively, or maybe literally). If you're in the area, check em out.

    I was browsing for a lunch spot in Buckner, Kentucky today and although it seemed highly unlikely…read morethat I would find one, I stumbled across Delizie Italiane. An Italian cafe in Buckner? Colored me intrigued...and also super surprised. Delizie Italiane is less than a mile from the YMCA, where my daughter had an event today. It has a rustic vibe (it's in a former railroad station), with wood beams and exposed brick. I ordered the Mortadella sandwich, served with ferro wheat salad or fruit. Sandwiches are served on bread from one of our favorites, Blue Dog Bakery. My sandwich consisted of thinly sliced imported mortadella with pistachios topped with lettuce, tomato, sliced Swiss cheese, thinly sliced red onion, and a mild or spicy giardiniera (pickled Italian pepper and vegetable salad) all on a Pugliese roll. I opted for wheat salad. I also tried the homemade minestrone soup (in a beef broth) and my three-year-old's buttered noodles and Parmesan. Sliced bread and oil for dipping was provided for the table. Everything I tasted was phenomenal, fresh, and authentic. To say that I'm pleasantly surprised to find this gem in Buckner is an understatement. The interior was cozy on this rainy day and the service was as warm as the atmosphere. I can't comment too much on the prices (my mother was treating to lunch) but it seemed average based on the menu and below average cost when considering the exceptional quality. It's my understanding that they currently serve breakfast and lunch and also have pop-up dinners. They had several specials posted on the blackboard. This is a business you don't want to sleep on. I live in an area with hundreds of food options with in a few mile radius and I would absolutely drive an extra half hour to revisit Delizie Italiane. I can't wait to work my way through the entire menu.

    We visited Reardon's Fruit Market and Garden Center and saw this Bistro across the street and…read moredecided to try it out for lunch. What a gem!!! We had a conversation with the owner who has degrees in Food Science and Culinary Arts, and is passionate about "changing the world with food." The inside is cozy, inviting, and meticulously clean. There is a small bar area and an area of table seating. Outdoor seating is available as well. The bistro is known for one of its appetizer small plates of deviled eggs. The owner said that the recipe for the eggs is one of the few things he is not wiling to share! Employees and patrons have drawn pictures of deviled eggs that are displayed on a wall space. I opted for the grilled chicken Greek salad. Greek salad is a favorite of mine and I have eaten it from numerous restaurants. By far, this was the best I have ever had. The artful presentation, fresh ingredients, and decadent flavors were a real treat. The chicken was so tender and again, the flavor bloomed in my mouth. The owner brought out a small serving of homemade peach ice cream that had been made the day before with fresh peaches. I simply have no words for how delicious it was. I will let my husband describe his experience in his yelp account, but I will say that after having salmon the night before at an 'upscale' restaurant in Louisville, he commented that the salmon at this bistro "blew it away!" People often say "I will return and try other menu options," when in fact they do not follow through. That will not be the case with us, we both agree that we cannot wait to return!
