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

Let's answer some questions…read more... DO I NEED A RESERVATION? I highly recommend it. Especially if you want to enjoy some of the more unique seating in the bar. WHERE IS IT???? Well, that's half the fun, isn't it? I will tell you, facing Louie the Troll, go east and keep your eyes open. My friends and I booked the fumoir which was a WONDERFUL surprise. Possibly the only spot in the bar that has proper doors. We each had a cocktail and got plenty of small bites. I got the Faraway Towns cocktail which was really yummy. They serve some pies, which we got the cheesecake and pecan, and those were crazy delicious. The lighting is quite dim, as expected, so please keep that in mind especially if your vision doesn't do well in such lighting. The whole experience was a lovely treat, HIGHLY recommend.

We tried walking in on a Wednesday and the host could not give us any time frame or promise…read moreanything but he said he would probably be able to make something work for us and give us a call. We were basically the only person on the list and we never got a call all night after waiting around and willing to go back immediately once he called us. I'm not really sure why he could not just offer to put us down in an open reservation time slot that was later. They definitely had some open, I was just hoping he'd be able to get us in earlier. We went back on Thursday because I really wanted to go. We made a reservation this time to be safe. When we got in, I saw how small it was so I understood us not being able to walk in the previous night. The ambiance was very cozy with dim lighting and I loved the couch seating. They had a call button to call over a waitress, and I have never seen that at any bar before. I thought it was a nice touch. Service was kind of slow but the drinks were really good.

Are we talking "On Heavens Gate!"…read more Yes, Bob Dylan, that inspirational author, songwriter, wordsmith, and artist has a Bourbon. Now they were looking for where to build his so called place to breathe life into it. That "it," place. It's not in Nashville, it's here in small little Louisville. What better place than an old church? Bourbon and Church! Amen! All are welcome! Now they don't make it here this is where they come to pour it and enjoy the flavors of it. Is life about the ride? How about dinner and some Heavens Bourbon made and inspired by Bob Dylan in a church. It's a must! Now this is a small venue and off the beaten track of life. What drew me? A large image of Bob Dylan on a building, mural style seemed out of place. Come to find out explore more and salut to a better version of heaven in this world of art, music, and words that have never been better than now. This is not just a church but the grounds house an art deco museum to his work. It's true dedication to the man of Bob Dylan. A Tennessee whiskey, distilled in Pleasureville, Ky. This the final stop here at the Last Refuge to celebrate his legacy and better aged bourbon among us.

This place came highly recommended for a restaurant to visit when in Louisville so it was our first…read morestop! Turning an old church into a bar/restaurant always makes for a unique environment. I loved walking through the rooms and seeing all the vintage details and stained glass. The Whiskey room has quite the shock factor with floor to ceiling bottles lining the walls. No complaints to be made about the service! It felt quick and smooth! The signature cocktails we ordered were very good (not pictured)! My only disappointment was the limited menu. The menu seemed to be mostly appetizers and pizza with some additional options for entrees. We ordered the Holy Fire Dip for a starter and it was delicious! It was warm and had great flavor. The waitress did need to bring more bread, the dipping options felt sparse. My husband and I split The Burnt Offering Pizza and Sanctuary Sliders, they were both solid. We both favored the pizza but would have liked more variety. I can see why this place comes highly recommended for the experience. I would definitely come back but hope they expand the menu by then!
