It felt like we were at our home having Sunday dinner. The food, can we talk about the food! It was AMAZING! We ordered just about everything on the menu, entree wise and everyone had an opportunity to taste what they didn't order. The food came out hot, fresh, well seasoned- perfect!!! Ms. Lucretia and staff, you're doing your thing! We will be back! Thank you for an enjoyable meal after a long and sad day. Shawn - The Host

It's a cool little place, today decorated with a balloon arch, probably left from a special event. We were greeted by a young lady who escorted us to the bar to pay. 14.99 ea is a bargain! I'll try to remember everything they had. Spinach salad, cornbread, potato salad, slaw, pickles, mashed potatoes, gravy, baked beans, kielbasa and kraut, cooked cabbage, green beans, Mac n cheese. I'm probably forgetting something? Then the meats. Baked chicken, fried chicken, fried catfish and fried pork chops, beef vegetable soup. Whew!! All delicious!!! Loved every minute. They did have some cookies on the buffet. They didn't look homemade so my only disappointment is that I didn't order banana pudding or peach cobbler to go!! They don't always have the buffet so call ahead or just go and order off the menu!! Yummm!

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.

I was going to a UofL women's basketball game and I FINALLY was able to make it here. I went a little overboard on the food, but everything sounded so good! I really loved the pork belly slider and the duck tacos. Mac and cheese balls always slap. Then there are the famous duck fat fries. The portion is substantial, I was thrilled with that. Flavor wise they did not change my life like I was hoping they would. Still ate them all. The locale is super unassuming from the street, but inside it is really cool, divey, and broody. The staff was super sweet and helped me get in and out efficiently so I could make it to the game. Would absolutely recommend, would absolutely come back, and would absolutely bring friends here.

I returned to get a refund, though I was asked to get another slice. Upon looking at the cake display once more, I realized there were several that had mold on it. There was one that was quite literally full of mold (you can see the carrot cake slice on the bottom right is a lot more green than the others). I tried not to make a face, because the gentlemen working there were very friendly. I wound up getting a slice from the display stand next to the moldy one (even though I promptly threw it away once I got home.) The food I got was okay. The chicken was a little dry and tough to eat. The chicken could have been hot, fresh, and juicy, but seeing those moldy cakes really just made me not even enjoy the food I got. I don't think I'll be back here.

Unfortunately, this establishment appears to be on the decline. The exceptional food and standout service we experienced during earlier visits have noticeably diminished over my last three visits. While menu prices have steadily increased by roughly $3 to $9 per item over the past year, the quality of the food, portion sizes, and overall service have all declined. During our most recent visit, many of the items we came for were unavailable. After waiting for about 30 minutes, we ultimately decided to leave. At these price points, it's unreasonable to expect guests to settle for limited options. And if there are significant menu limitations, they should be communicated upfront! Service was also a concern. There were only two servers for the entire restaurant, and while our server, Kay, is typically excellent, she seemed overwhelmed and off her game. After a long wait, we placed an appetizer order, only to wait even longer before she returned and asked if we wanted appetizers. Are you kidding me right now? I think that was the moment I was over this place. She proceeded to tell us the collard green dip wasn't available along with three or four other items we were considering. We had been left waiting for an item that was never coming. Absolutely bogus. Adding to the frustration, a manager stopped by to ask if we had placed our orders. When we said no, he did not offer to take them and simply moved on. I understand that rising food costs and staffing challenges are real issues, but they do not excuse a decline in quality and service. My place setting was not clean. There was a nearby table that ordered Sprite but was served Sierra Mist. And my friend's $50 short ribs resembled a cut of roast. Fried mushrooms are now $19! And fried chicken is $24 for four pieces...that's 6/piece! Including the drumstick! Unacceptable. The prices showing on Yelp are not accurate. They need to be updated. And I am never excited when an establishment chooses to add an automatic gratuity to my bill. That's a red flag, too. On a positive note, the music was enjoyable and parking was convenient. Still, the overall experience was disappointing. I enjoy supporting Black-owned businesses. So these experiences are especially disheartening. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and makes the necessary improvements. If not, the end is near. Do better, Dasha Barbour's.

    Intimate room, excellent menu, top notch service!…read more The room is dark, surprisingly intimate for as open as it is. Low ceilings and servers clad in black add to the effect of a candle-lit cask of a restaurant. The smells wafting from the kitchen immediately get your appetite revving if it wasn't already in gear. Out host, Mary, sat our party quickly and the server came right away to fill waters and take drink orders. The menu is short but superb. Everything has a Mediterranean flair that should make you expect savory mess and spice. Prices are in the $40-60 range for entrees but worth it! Parking is free in the lot and a QR code on the menu gives you access to enter your info including plate number. It's a nice feature for an area where spots are limited.

    I was hosting a business dinner in Louisville last week and wanted to try someplace new. I scanned…read morethe list of James Beard 2025 semifinalists and focused on two spots: MeeshMeesh and The Fat Lamb. MeeshMeesh is wildly popular and books out 60 days in advance, so that wasn't happening--but I was able to secure a timely reservation at The Fat Lamb. That turned out to be a great decision. It was a pleasure meeting Dallas McGarity, the executive chef and owner. He shared that the restaurant has been open for about ten years and that he's preparing to open a new Italian concept. When the topic of his James Beard nomination came up, he mentioned it was a complete surprise--the restaurant didn't self-nominate--which made the recognition feel even more meaningful. One thing I neglected to ask him directly was why lamb plays such a central role on the menu. Our server wasn't entirely sure either, but she did explain how the restaurant got its name. Apparently, Dallas was traveling through the countryside, spotted a particularly memorable "fat lamb" on a farm, and the name stuck. Sometimes it really is that simple. With four of us dining, we may have gone a bit overboard on starters--but no regrets. We shared the roasted Brussels sprouts, lamb kofta meatballs, fontina and truffle arancini, and the whipped feta and pita. Every dish was well-executed and easy to share, which made them ideal for a business dinner. For entrées, my wife and I split the signature tandoori and ancho spice-roasted lamb chops. They were flavorful without being heavy, and the black barbecue sauce added a nice depth. Our server highly recommended the Moroccan-spiced halibut, which our other guests shared and thoroughly enjoyed--especially the mushroom demi-glace. Dessert was the Nutella mousse, another house signature. The Italian cherries and chocolate shavings were a great finishing touch without pushing things into overly sweet territory. Beyond the food, what really stood out was the service and pacing. The evening flowed naturally--never rushed, never dragging--which is exactly what you want when entertaining clients or colleagues. The Fat Lamb delivered a memorable, well-rounded dining experience and easily earned its reputation. I'd happily return, whether for business or just a great night out.
