    It was just OK for me. The bar area seems pretty cool. Bartenders were welcoming upon entering the restaurant. We ate on the outdoor patio overlooking the river. The view wasn't spectacular. The water tasted funny to me. My husband said it was fine so not sure what that was about. The service was a bit slow but our waitress was really a sweet young lady. However the burger was solid and the fries were PERFECT!

    Ghost wait list used to frequent here but called ahead to be put on the waitlist and showed up 50 min later after being quoted and hour and they said it didn't exist and were quite rude about it. Go elsewhere these folks are assholes.

    We never saw a waitress until probably 10 mins after we were seated. Then, we got our entree before any of our drinks (coke zero and an old fashioned from the bar) and we never did receive the appetizer we ordered. The food was good. The atmosphere was nice, cute little place. Service just wasn't great. Food came out in less than a half hour, we just didn't get our drinks until way later and never got the app.

    We popped in on our way to Castle and Key for a bourbon tasting and Tour. The service was super nice and friendly. Gave good suggestions. We had the pretzel with cheese and some fries and dips as an appetizer both very good. I chose the fish sandwich with a side salad. both were very good. It took us a while to get our entrées as the restaurant got very busy, but we were still on time for our reservation. Their burgers looked delicious and huge.

    Great local place in downtown Frankfort. We were looking for a light lunch after a bourbon tour. The place has a main level and upstairs. We got the buffalo chicken dip that was a special that day and we also got chicken tenders and fries. The food was great. They have a nice selection of cocktails and bourbons. We had the BOM Old Fashioned which was excellent. Service was attentive and fast. We love supporting local when we travel and will be back.

    Rachael is a consummate professional and an excellent hostess / bartender and waitress. We rolled in on a Sunday with a party of 10 and she deftly handled our party with grace, efficiency and charm that left our bellies full and smiles on our faces when we said our fair well to BOM. The OFC burger was perfectly prepared and well executed with a brioche bun and American cheese. The side of fries was moderately seasoned with seasoned salt and pepper that just paired so well with the burger(s). Our glasses were never empty, the ladies said the Prosecco was delightful and requests for additional condiments was rapidly executed. Also, do not miss their rear deck / patio for a terrific view of the river and smoke outdoor seating. Just a terrific experience on my second time through KY and looking forward to next time!

    Their house speciality burger!! Incredible!

    The food was so good that we went back a second time! The drinks were also in point! They were busy and short staffed. The wait was long, but once seated, the service was good.

    We stopped here between our bourbon tours. They were quick and friendly! We let our waiter know we had another stop and he did a great job of being prompt and getting all orders. We have no issues with our orders and the food was delicious! There's a beautiful outside patio which was lovely. The decor and history was fun too!

    He had the BOM Flight and their special Manhattan!

    If you're looking for a place to go for a one hour lunch spot look elsewhere. 45 minutes to get my food.

    Limewater is a family-owned and -operated bistro and bar in Frankfort, Kentucky. We went here for…read morelunch while on a bourbon tour and the food, ambiance, and service were all exceptional. The name 'Limewater' is an ode to the Kentucky River as well as the limestone-rich soil that makes the Bluegrass Region so green. Limewater is located in the historic Glen Willis house, which sits on the banks of the Kentucky River. The brick home was built in 1815 and the building itself is stunningly beautiful. Coming from California, where you often don't see brick buildings or really anything that it preserved to last, it was a stunning sight to see! This restaurant is also in an amazing location if you are doing a bourbon tour in the area as it is extremely close to both Buffalo Trace Distillery and J Mattingly Distillery. We ate here for lunch, although this would be an amazing place for dinner as well. We love how this place was designed and decorated, which created such a beautiful setting to have lunch in. The restaurant is owned and operated by husband and wife team, chef Axl and Isabelle Wheeler. I love that this is a locally owned restaurant and not a chain restaurant because I think that is one of the many things that makes this place so special! Everything our group had, they loved. I had the Caprese Panini with mozzarella, tomato, basil, balsamic reduction, housemade ciabatta. It was absolutely delicious and the food was so fresh and flavorful. Two of the group had the 1815 {their version of an old fashioned} with brown butter-washed four roses bourbon, marmalade simple, angostura bitters, cherry and shared that it was delicious! If you are in the Frankfort area, this is definitely a place that you have to check out! Highly recommend and look forward to coming back next time I am in the area!

    What a great find! Stopped for lunch after tasting at Buffalo Trace (almost next door) and sat on…read morethe back porch with our dog overlooking the river. Service and food were awesome, had the pork schnitzel with spaetzle and red cabbage, delicious! Wife had a Mediterranean platter with roasted red pepper, fresh pita, Greek salad and some of the best falafels ever. Highly recommend for more interesting dishes, great service and views.
