Entrance
Tyanna M.

We stopped in here on a tour of Louisville distilleries and bars. This was stop 3 for us. I got a margarita and the hubby ordered a beer. There wasn't much to this place and we were the only ones in the bar. There wasn't much interaction from the folks that worked in there either. The music was pretty loud and we just sat at the bar and had our cocktails and left. Not much to stay for. Cocktails were fine but nothing to write home about. Maybe it was the time of day we were in there but I doubt we will return here.

Christmapolitan

When you first walk in, it's nice to see everything decorated and all the fun Christmas mugs, glasses, and shot glasses. Then, you realize there is more! Nicely decorated festive rooms and a lot of space. I tried the Turkey Sliders and Fries and they were very good. Actually, a lot better than I expected so I highly recommend those. The Christmapolitan and Rudolph's Replacement were very good as well. Service was great, they weren't too busy and you have a couple different bars so that is a plus when it gets busier. I'm excited to go back before Miracle on Market ends.

Chicken shawarma wakataka
Elvina A.

I tried this place randomly while looking for a quick food spot. The workers were very nice and helped with picking what to get. The food came out pretty quick and it was very tasty!! I had the chicken shawarma wakataka. Devoured it!!

Visited Miracle on Market again to try more holiday cocktails. Venue was busy on a Sunday evening, but line moved fast. We were never able to snag a table, but there was plenty of standing room. Drinks were ok - they didn't rank as high as other pop up bars we've visited and they were some of the highest priced. We did share some food at Galaxie (front space) and it was so good! Overall, great decide for holidays but priced and not as impressive cocktails.

This place was a let down. I'd seen all the great reviews about how Galaxie was a fun place to pop into for good food and drinks, but I think they place the heavy lifting on their fun branding and cool vibes over quality food/service. There was hardly any meat on my $8 wrap and was mainly filler toppings. I got chips on the side, and I swear the salsa was straight from a jar. I also ordered a shot beer combo (which is normally a good deal), but my first shot glass still had lipstick from the previous person on it. We also had to wait a while for one person in our party to get their food, and they forgot our fries for a hot second. I'd try one of the many other restaurants in the area if you're in this part of town.

Stopped in for the pop up Christmas theme bar. Beautiful decorations . Order at the bar and pick your food up so it's self serve. Drinks are way overpriced in my opinion . While served in adorable Christmas themed glassware , it was $15 for a small glass of wine. Hot chocolate was $8 and seemed like Swiss miss with a marshmallow . Roast beef fries were hot and delicious . The ambiance is worth going for but can't afford to stay long .

Miracle on market is the best Christmas bar in town. With that said the food at galaxy is great and I can't wait to go for an EDM show.

If you're EVER in the Louisville Nulu/downtown area, you have to stop by Galaxie. My friends and I were looking for a quick bite to eat and stumbled upon this place and everything was 10/10! Mel was so knowledgeable about the menu, she suggested the chicken shawarma, loaded nacho and shrimp poboy and it was all BOMB. Was only able to get a pic of the nachos. They make their chips and toppings in house and we certainly tasted the freshness! Also, the ambiance and aesthetic were so cute, we loved the galaxy themed bathroom. This will def be a place we visit anytime we're back in town.

Chips and queso
Jennifer C.

Stopped in for an early dinner and I love the creativity of their menu. Started with some margs and chips with queso. The homemade tortilla chips were warm and had a yummy seasoning on them. Also had tacos but completely forgot to take pictures because they were so yummy we dug right in. I'm excited that they will be opening a new location near home in Covington. This restaurant's quirky personality will fit right in.

I was browsing Uber Eats on rainy Friday night when I stumbled on Galaxie Tacos. I usually gravitate to local establishments and wasn't sure Galaxie Tacos was local? But my curiosity got the best of me, and I ordered three Wakatakas, (their signature flatbread tacos). I got the following: shrimp & chorizo- avocado mousse, arugula, aioli, pickled red onion, pico, cilantro hoisin bbq- korean bbq sauce, arugula,za'atar, pickled red onion Chimichurri chicken- grilled onion, chimichurri sauce, feta, pico, parsley I made it a combo and added chips and salsa. I'm not sure what the chips were dusted in, maybe grippos seasoning? I'm not usually much of a chip eater, but these were special with a unique combination of being both thick and flaky. The salsa was green and thicker than your average verde. I wasn't sure how many tacos I needed, having no experience with wakatakas. The flatbread made them more substantial than I expected. The toppings were hearty. I think one would've been enough, but I didn't let that stop me. I kept trying to pick my favorite, but I can't. Alternating bites provided the perfect combination of flavors. I can't comment on the ambience of this restaurant because I had them delivered. They were came fast and fresh. While I ate, I couldn't help but to keep thinking, "what luck that this place caught my eye." I can't remember the last time I've had tacos so satisfying.

Behind the Bar!

Galaxie is a cool funky spot for drinks right off the main drag in NULU! I've been here twice, and both times my husband and I only ordered hand-shaken cocktails from the bar. We always seem to eat elsewhere for lunch and dinner, but after looking at the menu & review photos, I'm starting to regret that! (The menu sounds amazing!) Until next time, when we WILL order food, all I can say is that their drinks are killer! The bartenders are quick, they know what they're doing, and seem like some of the coolest, kindest, most interesting people around! If you're not sure what drink you want to entertain, just ask them! They'll whip up a concoction that's sure to become your new favorite! Atmosphere is dark and sexy, perfect for sipping margs and listening to music on a date night. They often have live bands and events on weekends, and everyone in the area seems to recommend coming here! Stop in for a quick drink and a bite to eat! (I plan to update this review with food photos once I hit em' up again!)

Thanksgiving Taco
Lauren H.

The tacos have my whole heart!!! No seriously, after trying their Thanksgiving taco I have been raving about it to my husband. It got to the point where he told me to either stop talking about it or take him to get one. So we went and got one. Another taco of theirs I really like is the chipotle chicken one. I am a little ashamed to admit, but I've been here many times recently and I've gotten the Thanksgiving taco three of those times , there is just some thing about the zest in their cranberry sauce that really pulls it together. All that to say- I'm excited to come back and try even more of the taco combinations! This is a great place to stop in NuLu for a drink and snack, or you can make a meal out of the menu items. Around the holidays the bar turns into "miracle on market" and becomes a Christmas lovers dream. They usually post who is DJ'ing on their socials. The staff has always been kind and welcoming, food and drinks come out relatively quick even when the place is packed! Overall: check them out even if it's not the holidays, the fun tacos will hook your attention!

Galaxie .......... Located in the heart of the NULU neighborhood of Louisville on Market street, this intimate urban lounge is the perfect setting for a bar stop with tasty food. From the street , you would never guess what's lies inside. I went for tequila fest and was pleasantly surprised. The interior gives off cool vibe, with splashes of beautiful stunning art. The food is next level bar food and was prepared quickly. The perfect balance of composition of each dish was amazing. There is stage and full bar in the back. Definitely a place you can stop and enjoy. Drink: House Margarita Entree: Black Bean Bowl Decor: Recycled Art Masterpiece

There are also picnic tables out front. You get a faint whiff of the grill/smoker upon entering. Kylie was our bartender and she was fabulous - knowledgeable, friendly, and answered all of our questions with patience. Wife ordered a mango margarita and doesn't like a lot of tequila, so Kylie went half and gave her a shot on the side in case she wanted to add more. It was wonderful. I had a couple of beers. We started with the fried mushrooms, which aren't what you would expect. It's two large portobellos cut into chunks, battered, fried, and served with sun-dried tomato mayo. They were great. I then ordered a duck taco, brisket taco, and a side of Grippo Fries with smoked mayo. I'd never tried duck but that taco was smack-a-lackin'. The brisket taco was also good, and the fries were fantastic - sweet and spicy, fresh cut, and crispy. Wife ordered a pork belly slider and truffle fries. She enjoyed the slider but didn't care for the fries - just not her thing. The portions here are large. A side of fries will feed three people. We took a hefty portion of them home, as well as some of the mushrooms. We could've sat there at the bar and spent 3 hours socializing and enjoying a smattering of cocktails - love the setting. Look forward to going back and trying one of the burgers at some point.

First time in you have to (and not just because we did!), unless you're in with a group of 4 or more who will share everything with everyone. For 2 diners, $65 each gets you a total of 4-5 apps, typically spreads with the incredible flatbread. Pace yourself -- then 2 full entrees capped with shared dessert.

I had a salad and my family members had steak and shrimp that was in essence a reflection of the wholesome nature that steak and bourbon provides you with. We usually try to go to the one downtown but this time we went to the one on the east side for the sake of the reservation. The saxophone player was very talented. Which, made me leave him a cash tip as I love jazz. It is fair to say, that we had a phenomenal experience based on how well we were treated by our server who was a recent transplant from out of state and even the U.S. as she shared her story with us which was very much so moving and compelling. We always have a wonderful time at steak and bourbon together as a family. But, I personally will have to point out that my favorite part of the whole dinner is the live music and the wonderful ambiance that in a way, fosters excitement, and intimacy if the right person or people happen to join you during such a special environment.

Unique flavors and preparations artfully presented with wonderful wine pairings. Each course was phenomenal and had over a dozen diners doing the requisite "ooooh" and "ahhhh". However, if I was forced to commit to the standout items for me, it would be: (1) the delectable pork collar that defied comprehension with how it had a sweet crunchy exterior bark yet maintained a moist and tender bite as we dug in, (2) the soft shell stuffed crab on a bed of just perfect mustard greens with a crunchy texture, (3) dessert that mimicked a cloud and included coffee "gummies" and also was paired with a delicious sherry that held its own. I felt like I needed a cigarette after this meal. I don't smoke. It was That Mind Blowing. These collaboration dinners will be held for at least the next 2 months.
