10. Shady Lane Cafe

Reviewed By Joe B
Itâs nothing fancy and itâs pay at the counter but still itâs decent for lunch and reasonable. They close at 3 so donât linger too long. Nevertheless, the Benedictine sandwich on rye with fruit and a few chips for good and plenty enough for lunch. Is it as good as the Benedictine at The Cafe? No, but you canât eat there all the time. This small place is tucked in a small strip mall off of Brownsboro Road. For history buffs itâs not too far from Zachary Taylor National Cemetery. Service is friendly and after you place your order they will bring your food to your table plus collect your plates once through. Itâs fairly quiet for those of us in groups who prefer to talk to each other. At least it was that way at 1 pm on a Thursday.

This is definitely a favorite spot as there are lots of options for following a plant based diet as it's 100% vegan. Everything we've ordered has been so good & usually get a 6 pack of chocolate chip cookies to go.

It was love at a first sign when I entered First Watch at Louisville, St. Mathew. My daughter in law brought me in, and since that time, I have never missed the opportunity to enjoy my breakfast at First Watch visiting a city. They served breakfasts/ brunch/lunches. If you order Avocado Toast + Morning Meditation drink, Fritta Rustica or even Pesto Chicken Quinoa Bowl ( we tasted all) you will feel satisfied with the quality of food, portions, service and surrounded by new country-style décor. I like their Sunrise Project helping women in the coffee industry. I hope next time around, they will have Keto bread to meet my present diet preference. Great place to enjoy your morning time â highly recommended!

I've been to Mesh many times, it's always enjoyable, but sometimes I like the menu more than others. Tonight was a hit! It was a Sunday night, so pretty quiet, but my table of 5 got good service and excellent food. I had a cocktail to begin, and the server recommended the Indian Hills Summer. Wow. New favorite cocktail. For a bourbon cocktail, it was so light and citrusy, perfect for the summer heat. For dinner I had the grilled red fish with coconut basmati rice, yellow curry, grilled pineapple relish and more. Again, pure excellence. The flavors were light, bright and spot on. Well done, Mesh. I'll be back very soon!

I visited Cheesecake Factory to celebrate my nephew's birthday. We had a group of 13, so we had made reservations. Our server, Laura was fantastic. She was very attentive and all of our orders were correct. Everyone's meals were brought to the table at the same time and everything was delicious. I love the complimentary bread and butter. The entree' servings are always quite large. For dessert I ordered the pineapple upside down cheesecake. WOW!!! This might be my favorite dessert now. I'm never disappointed with the quality, variety and service at Cheesecake Factory.We hope your nephew had a wonderful birthday. We're so glad you and your party enjoyed our food and the service our team member provided during this visit. Thank you for the review and we hope to see you soon to enjoy more of our cheesecake!

Ate here with a group of 14 people. Our service was excellent and everyone's order arrived exactly as requested. Everything was delicious and beautiful in presentation - we love coming here with out-of-town guests. We will be back soon and appreciate Wild Eggs continuing their longtime tradition delicious brunch at an affordable price. Such a wonderful array of menu options with both healthy and indulgent entrees. My only complaint would be the overpriced iced tea!! Sorry, it's my pet peeve when restaurants overcharge for drinks.
