Bluegrass Benedict
Queenie W.

Great food, excellent service and the place was laid back and they also have outdoor seatings. The food had excellent flavor and our server was on point. Will definitely be back.

French Toast
Angela R.

A friend and I went for lunch at Cheddar Box Too today. The restaurant is small and cute with a few outdoor seats. The food was excellent but it took us a long time to get our order. The waitress finally came up to us and let us know they lost our order. I also ordered hot tea and needed more hot water, but no one ever came over to check on us. I ordered the French toast with a side of sausage. It was so tasty that there were no leftovers. Hopefully, the service was a one off experience.

Fried green tomatoes and orange iced tea
Amanda S.

Stopped by for an impromptu brunch on a Saturday afternoon and we either lucked out or this is a best kept secret! The staff was super friendly as I walked in and told me they'd be right with me. They cleaned up a table real quick and seated my within 5 minutes I ordered the fried green tomatoes as I waited for the rest of the crew to find parking and join me inside. I ended up ordering the chicken salad sando with a side salad. Friends ordered pancakes and eggs Benedict. The pancakes were delicious, I snuck a couple bites...sadly, didn't get to try the eggs Benedict. Though we sat inside, the outside patio looks very nice and I would love to return and enjoy eating outdoors. Great spot for weekend brunch or weekday lunch!

Spinach salad with grilled chicken
Kyle E.

Today was my first time patronizing Cheddar Box Too! I always thought the only location was the original Cheddar Box, but I was mistaken. I don't know how I missed it, it's right at the entrance into Chenoweth Plaza. From the outside it looks like a very small building, but there is surprisingly a lot of seating inside. We arrived before the lunch rush and were immediately seated and provided menus. Everything looks delicious, but I chose the Spinach Salad with blue cheese crumbles, warm bacon dressing and added grilled chicken. Service was good and they kept our drinks refilled! We both ordered salads and it didn't take long to get our food. The spinach salad was a great portion with lots of spinach! Toppings were generous but didn't overpower the salad. Dressing was on the side, which I love. The grilled chicken was plentiful. It was a great salad and I'd definitely recommend in the future. My friend had the grilled chicken salad, which has a southwest salad dressing that looked good too. It's a little pricy for a salad, I think mine was $18 and some change after adding the chicken, but it was a hearty portion.

The Kentuckian Burger
Deb M.

Had a fantastic lunch today at the Cheddar Box Too. The restaurant is small but bright and service was great! Our waitress was friendly, knowledgeable and kept our drinks full. I had the Kentuckian Burger. The burger was enormous. The burger was juicy and flavorful, sitting on lettuce, a fried green tomato topped with pepper jelly, caramelized onions, pimento cheese and bacon jam. The flavors meld together in a sweet and savory bite. Give this burger a try, you won't be disappointed. On a side note the burger comes with raw onions we substituted them for the grilled onions.

Garden press sandwich, tomato artichoke soup, Cobb salad
Rosa H.

Sweet spot for lunch. It closes at 2:30 so dinner is not an option. Loved the fresh sandwich, soup & salad! I will definitely want to go back for lunch meetups!

Kentucky Hot Brown Benedict
Natasha P.

Definitely one of the best biscuits and gravy in the city It is however, a bit overpriced for your portions. The hot brown Benedict lacked flavor but I feel that way about all hot browns so it is not partial to cheddar box The service is amazing and the staff is always kind.

Childrens pancake
Rob K.

Great little restaurant! The open early (8:00 am) so when you and your baby wake up, you have time to give them a bottle, get in, get seated, and order before they realize they are ravenously hungry. Fun kids menu, see the Mickey pancake pic attached. Jenny served us and was awesome. She gave great recommendations and patiently went through the menu. Per her recommendation, I got the biscuits and gravy! Excellent choice! Soft homemade biscuits with excellent white gravy mixed with Purnell's sausage! I'd strongly recommend. It was so good I forgot to take a picture! Arguably the best biscuits and gravy I've had in a LONG time. Don't shirt change yourself, get the full order! We tried the French toast, it was good. But not world changing. The pancake, well let's just say there was a dad tax for my son. I'd also recommend you collect an excise tax when feeding your little ones. The syrup is a warm mixture maple syrup and butter, can't believe I didn't think to do that at home! Definitely worth a try and we will most likely be back!

2.5 out of 5!! Wasn't a 2 but wasn't a 3 either. The cute fruit side was lukewarm. The eggs Benedict were ok, the poached egg were a little under on 1 of 2 eggs. The side of potatoes were only $2, and not bad. Overall it was ok, not bad but not really that great. They have a mural on the wall that looks cool though. The check came to $32 and really should of been a $21 check at max.

For those with ADHD and won't read past the first sentence...this place is a 9.5/10!!!…read more For those who read more than the first sentence...this is a service counter restaurant with no servers. You order at the window, take a buzzer, get your drinks and find somewhere to sit. We (a party of 4) showed up around 11 on a Sunday morning and the line was already out the door. We had a hard time deciding what to order because everything we saw coming out before us looked just as delicious as the last. After the owner greeted us and gave a run down while in line, we settled on the shrimp and grits, steak and eggs, bread pudding french toast with a side of bacon, and a chicken and bacon croissant sandwich. (I wanted to order the biscuits and gravy weekend feature but they were already sold out.) The girl at the register was polite but very soft spoken so we had trouble hearing what she said. The coffee was the perfect temperature for drinking immediately without scalding yourself, and the different flavorings and types of milk/cream to choose from was a major plus! There were no complaints about any of our food except the steak was a bit under seasoned. I had the french toast, and, in my opinion, is enough for 2 people. There was a bit too much whipped buttercream for me but I was able to rake off majority, and the fruit that came on top was so fresh! The bacon was thick sliced and 3 of my 4 pieces were cooked perfectly to my liking - not too crispy, not too soft! We all were part of the clean plate club after eating because the food was that good! I wished now we would have taken pics of our food before eating! It's a shame it came up as #16 on my Yelp search because it wasn't even the least bit on my radar for our breakfast spot. But luckily, the tag line, "The second best thing you can do in the morning", caught the attention of one our male guests Definitely will be back when the chance arises!

The restaurant has a back parking lot and on street parking - the restaurant is quite large with two indoor seating areas and outdoor patio seating. The menu is large with a big brunch menu, lunch and entree options and kid's menu. We started with the s'mores hot chocolate and apple cider mimosas. The hot chocolate was pipping hot and delicious topped with toasted marshmallows. The apple cider mimosas had a weird flavor, I would recommend going with another fruit juice option. We ordered the kids buttered noodles with waffle on the side - big wide noodles that were swimming in butter. My son thought it was too much butter but loved the type of noodles. The waffle was good - not very sweet but he enjoyed it. My daughter loved the chicken and waffles entree, but I thought the portion was a bit small for an adult entree. The chicken was freshly breaded but the waffle was on the smaller side. The sandwiches and soups were delicious - we had the club which was filled with ham and turkey and the perfect amount of mayo. The tomato soup was creamy and so satisfying. The Ruben was a good size and stuffed with corned beef and melty cheese! Overall we had a great experience- a bit on the pricey side.

The banana bread French toast was really good, the eggs were cooked well, and the biscuits and gravy were also very tasty. On the downside, one of the plates came out a little dirty, which wasn't great to see. Other than that, the place itself was clean, the staff was friendly, and the experience was enjoyable overall.

When it's said "they don't make them like this anymore", this place is what they mean. Ornate, elaborate and straight out of another era. I didn't stay at the Brown, so don't know what the rooms are like but if the lobby is an indication, I think it would be pretty cool. Stopped into J. Graham's on a Weds afternoon at 12:30. It was about half full. Service is quick and friendly. From looking around the room, it seemed that most people ordered the Hot Brown even though there is an extensive menu of other options. The Hot Brown is an open-faced turkey sandwich. A thick slice of turkey is served over thick-sliced bread. The turkey is covered with mornay (béchamel with Gruyère cheese), topped with bacon, sprinkled with parmasean and broiled in a gratin-dish, served with a roasted tomato. It's gooey and cheesy, turkey moist and tender, bacon crisp. Very hearty, very filling. Unique, definitely worth trying. Not sure I'm having another one, but glad I experienced it.

I went to Foko after hearing nonstop hype about it being one of the absolute best breakfast spots…read morein Louisville. The place is positioned as this incredible Mexican breakfast destination, so I figured it had to be something special. Turns out it's just standard Mexican food and drinks. Even if they were using using "the freshest most highest quality ingredients", it doesn't show in the final product at all. Heres what i got: The Espresso Martini ($14) was actually decent--nice and foamy with a solid chocolate note. The Carajillo ($8), on the other hand, was weak. It tasted like plain iced coffee with zero detectable alcohol. I wouldn't order it again. The Wake Up Burrito $14: their biggest hype item. I got it and added chorizo for $3.50, bringing the total to nearly $17.50. It's sausage, cheese, eggs, and beans wrapped up--pretty good, but nothing groundbreaking. Without their green sauce it's completely average, no different from any regular breakfast burrito at a diner. The green sauce itself is what really the only saving grace, but they serve it in tiny thimble-size portions like they're guarding some secret recipe. So for $18 you get a medium-size burrito plus a couple of fried tortillas with cheese on the side. Compare that to mexican spot like Bandito, where the burritos are twice the size and cost much less. This one is seriously overrated. The Chilaquiles - I got the side order of these with the burrito, and were average at best. Just fried tortillas with cheese and a little sauce that had a slightly sour edge. Not bad, but nothing I'd call amazing. I thought to myself, if these had egg and beans(what the main dish has) , would I have been glad to pay $17? The answer is no. Ive had better at the airport. Bottom line: Foko is incredibly overrated. It feels like a tourist trap built for people for those Luisville people who who don't eat much Mexican food and think this is the pinnacle. I get it, the decor is nice and gives that "premium" feel but the prices are way too high for what you actually get. I won't be back.
