I visited Holy Smokes after it was recommended to me by a guest at the hotel I was staying at. I visited early evening (6:15 p.m.) and after reviewing the menu I decided on the 2-meat sampler with brisket and pulled pork only to find out that brisket was not available.I settled for Ribs and pulled pork with fries and cream corn, again fries were not available (fryer broken) and no cream corn. I ended up with slaw and beans. A few minutes after ordering I picked up my food. The ribs were dry and cold and the pulled pork really had no flavor. The slaw was warm and I didn't eat it for fear of getting sick. I have had better beans out of a can. All in all I ended up eating very little of my meal and tossing the rest in the garbage. The guest who recommended Holy Smokes accompanied me and while he was very happy with his visit a couple of night before, he was also disappointed with this visit and apologized several times.

I had a 1/2 chicken dinner. The 2 sides were OK but the star of the meal was a 1/2 chicken BBQed & smoked. It was simply delicious. The portions were large enough that I took home 1/2 my meal. I ate at the bar and the bartender was terrific.Thank You so much for your kind words!! We really appreciate your support of small, locally owned business! Love, Your Momma's!

Against The Grain Brewery and Smokehouse is Louisville's first brewer-owned brewery and, like most worthwhile undertakings, the product of dissatisfaction with the status quo. The Louisville area has had a number of quality brewpubs for some time now, but

Came for lunch and loved it! The atmosphere is fun and Street artsy but donât miss the brews and food. We tried the bbq breakfast and it was....well....words donât describe it well enough. Just suggest you have it. Two of our group did and then shared bites with the rest. The brisket sandwich was delicious but the brisket baked beans were sublime. As for the brews, one of our group loved the pool boyâ with a blackberry base- light and refreshing. Another of our group got a darker porter which they loved âbut the winner had to be the Bloody Mary. It came with lots of accoutrements including a piece of cheese, meat and pork rinds. Hard to describe but delicious with a little spice. Good Music was going outside but we sat inside to avoid the afternoon heat. Fun place to try.

Very popular and highly recommended as we searched out places to go while in LVille for the weekend. Downtown so limited parking but we did get a metered spot. Enter down a hall and think your going into the kitchen. Has booths, high tops and bar seating. We had a great Old Fashion. Best of the trip. Raw bar and BBQ. Had wings hot. Very spicy. St Louis style ribs. Nothing more than spare ribes with wet sauce and dry rub spicies. Expected St Loius Beef ribs. Ribs we got were OK. Has an extensive Bourbon and wiskey list and beers. Good service at the Bar. TV with football. We would return and glad we stopped. Reserving a table online was not available and calling in for reservation was not allowed. Moved the date from Sat to Sunday and no problem.
