The Mill is a basic bar with very basic beer and spirits. They only had 3 beers on tap: Abita…read moreAmber (they were out), Abita Strawberry, and Blue Moon. I was able to get a Jucifer in a can for 4.50. They have darts and a pool table but for the most part it was just the AARP crowd drinking beer. There are several TV's to watch sports or whatever the old peeps want on. The outdoor TV was on Fox News. Who wants to go to the bar and watch politics? I'd rather watch the cheese channel on the hotel tv in the movie European Vacation, I'd rather watch Lawrence Welk play a polka, I'd rather watch the Teletubbies in a porno with Barney the dinosaur. They also had matches and ashtrays on all the outdoor tables with those cigarette disposal cans. No thanks. The place is not for me but if I worked in Elmwood, I may stop in for a cold one after work from time to time.

We got the classic hummus which was also really good. The beef kabob and beef shawarma were okay. We did note that the french fries were heavily salted but it is to our preference so I really liked it. If you aren't a fan of that, I think you should mention it to your server. I don't think they were fresh-cut or made in-house, we didn't mind.

This is the most upscale and newest of the Byblos restaurants. For quite awhile after they opened…read morein Elmwood I was really happy with the food and service here. They were doing a lot of unique things here and the food really was quite a step up from the other Byblos locations to the degree that there was zero resemblance. I really enjoyed everything I ate here and while it was more expensive than the other Byblos locations it was of better quality. Unfortunately something has changed as the quality seems to have dropped, the menu has changed and service has really deteriorated. They have a pizza type oven like Shaya and Saba have and they were putting out a similar type bread to those establishments but on my last visit I just got generic pita bread. The experience used to rate a higher price but now things have really declined and the juice is no longer worth the squeeze. I hope my last visit was just an anomaly but I've heard from multiple people that the standard has dropped and the generic pita is the new usual. This was a four star joint and one of the top Middle Eastern joints in the area but sadly that no longer seems to be the case.

I got the fried shrimp and oyster basket. I kid you not - the juiciest most flavorful fried shrimp I have ever had! My pictures don't do it justice!! Great variety of local beers, other cool items on the menu. Ambiance was cool, you could tell it had been here while. If you're in the area be sure to drop in. I toured in for the pic and they said it was too long: While it looks plain, they are the best fried shrimp I have ever had. Juicy, seasoned just right, and both the shrimp and oyster came out hot!!! While I don't get a lot of quality oysters in central Kentucky, I can't be considered an expert.... They were spot on also!! Check it out and enjoy!!!

The Rivershack Tavern is well-named! It is located on River Road in a historic building that has a…read moregreat deal of character. This building might be considered by some a shack, and it certainly is a bar. However, it also serves up some amazing food. It's historic inside as well as outside, having classic signs, posters, and other New Orleans memorabilia displayed on virtually every surface, including the ceilings. Also noteworthy are their barstools, which have amusing legs attached. The interior is rather dark, even in the middle of the day, but don't let this deter you. Your eyes will quickly adjust. This might be an advantage if your visit is to engage in day-drinking! However, if your visit is to eat, first look for the board displaying the Daily Special. These are a great choice and may include things not normally on the menu. Variety is the spice of life and all... However, the menu is adequate for most any purpose. There are a great variety of sandwiches, wraps, salads, plates, and appetizers! I like that the sandwiches can be customized with sides. One can swap out regular fries for sweet potato fries, or there are really great and crispy tater tots! One can even opt for a bowl of gumbo or soup! Some of these changes involve a slight up-charge, but are worth it. Speaking of the soups and gumbos, these are really great choices. I happened to be there when French Onion Soup was part of the daily special, and it was amazing! Had a great big toasty chuck of bread with cheese on top, and the soup was rich and delicious. Their gumbo is a substantial choice, with great and deep flavors. I also recommend their BLT, which pairs well with a bowl of soup. The waitstaff is friendly and helpful and the prices are fair. This place is an experience that one should have while in the area. It's definitely a place you'll want to return to!

I went on a Friday night around 9:30 and karaoke started up about 10:30 PM. Good selection of songs and plenty of room to accommodate the performer and spectators. However, aside from a couple of singers (one being a bartender) these people may hate music. The bar is low for belting out tunes, but as long as everyone is having a good time, I guess that's all that matters. I didn't stay long because I was pretty worn out from Jazz Fest, but this is the place to go if you want to try out karaoke for the first time....all are welcome to participate and there is no judgment. How can there be? Bottom line, the regulars are nice, but mostly keep to themselves and the bartenders are very attentive.

One of Our All-Time Favorites!…read more Boulevard is one of my husband and my all-time favorite restaurants, and they consistently deliver every time we visit. We frequent both the Elmwood and Metairie locations, but the Elmwood location is our go-to since it's closest to home. On this visit, I started with the Boulevard Oysters--crispy fried oysters served over creamy spinach with an aioli sauce. They were delicious! I also had the chicken tortilla soup, and I absolutely freaking LOVE this soup! It's one of my favorites on the menu. For my entrée, I had the blackened fish with coleslaw, and of course, I had my usual lemon drop martini. That lemon drop is the BOMB! I order it every time, and it never disappoints. What I love most about Boulevard is the consistency. The food comes out quickly, the cocktails are always good, and the staff is always attentive--even when sitting at the bar, which is one of my favorite places to sit here. The restaurant is always clean, the bathrooms are clean, and you're greeted when you walk through the door. We've been here many times, and Boulevard hardly ever disappoints. Five stars, without a doubt! There's something for everyone on the menu, and honestly, you really can't go wrong with whatever you order. Boulevard will continue to be one of our go-to restaurants!
