Favorite Restaurants
Louisville has such an amazing food scene. Here is a list of our favorite restaurants.
Ground. Meat. That's all you need to know. This place is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE place in Louisville. Serves ground versions of wild game. You can try venison, wild boar, wagyu, alpaca, and even kangaroo. The kangaroo burger is the best ground meat I have ever eaten in my life. Also, splurge for the truffle fries. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.
