"The Twisted Tail is a place that’s easy to walk into any day of the week and hear some great blues music while eating things like shrimp and grits, smoked BBQ ribs, and other Southern dishes. There’s a large bar, a handful of wooden tables, and back booths along the wall, and if you’re looking to casually drink outside, they have some outdoor seats, too. So you can park out front under the umbrellas on a sunny day, order some smoked wings, and let the tangy glaze and guitar riffs make your night." - candis mclean
"The Twisted Tail is like a man cave in a Kentucky basement—one that just happens to serve good food. The Headhouse Square restaurant and whiskey joint offers snacky dishes like like smoked wings, pulled pork empanadas, and $6 half-dozen oysters during their "Social Hour," along with daily drink specials. They have live music, too, so peep their Instagram page to see who you'll listen to while sipping bourbon. photo credit: Reel Media Agency photo credit: Reel Media Agency photo credit: Reel Media Agency Pause Unmute Food Rundown Crawfish Mac and Cheese There's not much crawfish to be found in this skillet, but the mac and cheese is solid. A good choice to share along with some of the fried starters. photo credit: Reel Media Agency Beer Battered Cheese Curds Of all the fried goodies on the "Social Hour" menu these are the star. They're crispy and light on the outside, stretchy on the inside, and served with a tangy remoulade. photo credit: Reel Media Agency Pulled Pork Empanada The pulled pork in the center is dry, the outer pastry to tough to chew, and it's lacking flavor overall. Skip 'em." - Alison B. Kessler
