We ordered the Kentucky Hot Brown Sandwich & the Classic Smash Burger. Everything was excellent albeit at prices just a tad high but well worth it. With an interesting name such as Scout & Scholar we had to ask our server the meaning behind that & he said it was named after the 2 founders of Bardstown itself ( William "The Scout" & David "The Scholar" Bard.

However , the upscale , odd menu of the restaurant didn't appeal to me, but I needed something to go with my old fashioned so I chose the bread pudding desert. It was good, but instead of coming with a bourbon sauce, it came with a balsamic based one. Why?? Our server wisely warned us us and we both asked for it ion the side. Good choice, it didn't belong with the chocolate bread pudding. The tour of this distillery was great, I just wish the restaurant could have some more normal choices and a choice or two for for vegetarians. It's not only meat eaters that drink bourbon. I sure won't choose this as a dinner or lunch spot again. It's a real shame that I was forced to rate the 2 together, as they clearly aren't in the same class. The restaurant is a 2 at best.

So I will give this place 5 stars despite a couple issues because the food was soooo good. Finding…read moreplace to eat in Bardstown while on our bourbon trail vacation was a struggle and we made reservations here for 7 on a Sunday. Um, when I double checked where it was, I noticed the close at 7?!?? So we left as soon as we could and got there at 6:35 and yes,, they close at 7:00. But the one waiter there was fine with seating us and he did a good job and was so nice and calm. The place reminded mr of old school supper club type places your grandparents would take you too. Nothing splashy but cute. Upstairs there was a bar and seating area too. The food was soooo good. I got their chicken special and my husband got the steak special for the night. It was so much food but it was just good old cooking yet not just "plain". My husband said the mushrooms he got with the steak were easily the best he has ever had. We ate until we were going to burst. And it was getting late but the staff was not pushing us or anything (we tried to get done as quick as we could though for their sake). It was a really nice experience.

Once our server finally arrived we figured we better order our meals along with our drinks. We got the Hot Brown Pizza & the Primo Pizza. It took awhile for our order to arrive but once it did it was actually amazing, especially the Hot Brown. The food saved Cafe Primo from getting a 1 or 2 star review from me because it really was terrific. Great food but subpar service & definitely a bit on the pricey side makes Cafe Primo a 3 star experience.

Once seated we were given some recommendations by our sever, Bethany, who did an excellent job of taking care of us. So we ended up ordering the Pulled Pork Platter & Shrimp & Grits. Our meals arrived in short order & everything was outstanding. Our only complaint was the acousticss were pretty awful which made carrying on a conversation a little difficult but I suppose there isn't much that can be done about that. All in all we were more than happy with our experience & we will absolutely return again in the future.

The shepherds pie was just okay. Green fried tomatoes were fine, but missing the mark on the sauce. We ordered a special, souvlaki chicken.

Totally missing the seasoned and bright-herbaceous mix of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and oregano. Just go to the bar. Find some other place for dinner.
