Fabulous, delicious and great service! Louisville finally has an upscale spot that checks all the boxes. I've been here at least a half dozen times, it never disappoints.
Service? Fantastic. Professional, thoughtful. The managers and chef always go over and above. They went out of their way to accommodate me and literally saved the day one afternoon when we made an unexpected, special request for a birthday. You don't see that kind of customer service very often anymore.
Decor? Stunning, beautiful tones of blues, purples and green with plush seating, big windows, gorgeous lighting and an open concept kitchen. You feel like you're stepping into an Architectural Digest feature. It's immersive and dreamy!
Dining? The food, the food, the food! It's truly next level, delicious, well prepared, fresh. One of the best restaurants in the city. The steaks and seafood really shine.
So far, each time we have truly dined like kings:
Tomahawk Ribeye - huge, perfect flavor, beautiful presentation.
Bone in Filet- melted like butter in our mouths, so tender and perfectly cooked.
Lobster Bisque- stellar. A delicate little pile of lobster arrived placed beautifully in the bowl. Next, the server poured out the soup from a tiny teapot. I loved it, and the soup was terrific, perfect consistency with lots of flavor and depth.
Broccoli Pistachio Casserole- definitely one of the best things I've ever eaten. Rich, creamy, light and a little extra something. Yum! A lovely twist on a classic.
Desserts- the pastry chef here is top-notch. I love the lemon crème de pot... it's like eating a cloud. I could devour a whole bowl if they'd let me!
I highly recommend this exceptional restaurant, it's such an unexpected respite from the other spots in town. I honestly can't say enough, just go!
Other mentions:
Parking is easy! You can use the lot next to the hotel, valet or park on the street. So convenient! Other spots downtown are such a hassle. Not here.
Romantic and hip Rooftop:
After dinner, explore the upstairs rooftop bar area. Fireplaces, cushy seats, live music and panoramic views of downtown. Breathtaking!!! The bartenders are talented, friendly and on top of it.
Pricing: a good bang for the buck. Actually less expensive than some other downtown steakhouses.
If I win the lottery, I'm moving into this hotel like an old Hollywood starlet. I'd be dining at Steakhouse Bourre Bonne every night. Sigh.
Until then, I feel lucky to be able to step into this little piece of Heaven that consistently exceeds expectations.
