This restaurant is beautiful and has live music. It lives up to its reputation of being one of the top restaurants in Old Louisville, and my lovely fiancé took me here.
Our server was great. He was very attentive and kind! He cracked some good jokes and told us how he had been working there for years. The atmosphere was so calm and classy. The live music was lovely. I also loved the dark green theme of the restaurant and how it was complimented with white flowers. The bar was also beautiful, with so many different alcohols displayed.
The bread and butter appetizer was delicious, and it came out freshly baked! I got the Seared Scallops over risotto, and it was just melt-in-the-mouth delicious. The risotto was cooked perfectly (I know it’s a tricky dish!) and the scallops were so sweet. My fiancé got their Filet Mignon, and he loved it. For our dessert, we split the caramel brownie with vanilla ice cream and caramel drizzle. ABSOLUTE HEAVEN!
I highly recommend this place for a fancy date night. We both still want to try the Beef Wellington; we will definitely be coming back for more!
Just go. What an amazing dining experience. The atmosphere was beautiful. The piano player was perfect. The service was top notch, and the food was outstanding. Prepared and presented to perfection. The prices might seem high until you taste your meal. At that point, you'll think it's a bargain. A definite must when near Old Louisville.
Ive been twice it was a great experience both times. The drink was a candy apple martini, the bread was a nice portion and taste good. Also the meatballs is a must try and my steak was cook perfectly dripping in sauce served over potatoes and asparagus. That too is a must try .
I must say… in my times, I’ve been to Buck’s so much… from college days to adulthood. Come for dinner - lunch is solid, but it doesn’t have the Short-rib Beef Wellington, and that is the absolute best item on the menu. I’d come back just for that. Beyond this element, there is live piano music from time to time and woman get a star of Bethlehem flower to take home. Eloquent, refined, classy ambiance.
We saw Bucks advertised during a showing of Secrets of the Bluegrass Chefs and immediately put it on the list to visit! We were coming to town for a show and decided this past weekend to have Dinner at Buck's. We had a phenomenal experience!!! Anthony was our host and was super informative and got us seated quickly. Our server Natalie was fantastic! We enjoyed the meatball appetizer, the crispy fish and duroc pork chop entrees and finished our evening with the bread pudding and brownie desserts. I was impressed with all aspects of restaurant. The wine list and bourbon selection were cast and impressive. The appetizers entree and desserts were some of the finest food we have had in Louisville. You simply must vist Buck's and enjoy this fantastic experience.
Together with some of her coworkers, my wife and I had dinner here. Fantastic, fresh food. Excellent service. Stunning live piano music. BURBON! I took a photograph of the men's restroom because it impressed me with how clean and well-maintained it was, and there are already a ton of fantastic photos of the food on this site.
Quaint place with old school china plates. All of their bourbon on display to highlight the selection. Food was awesome and cannot wait to go back.
WOW! Absolutely delicious! The service was some of the best in Louisville. The attentiveness of the staff could not have been better! All three courses of the meal was prepared perfectly. The lobster flavor was AWESOME! Custom cocktails were flavorful and well balanced! Definitely recommend!
This is one of my favorite places to eat in Louisville. It was the place of my first date with my wife. We usually just sit at the bar and have appetizers and drinks, but I have eaten full meals there as well. Reservations recommended if you plan on table service.
We looked up unique restaurants in Louisville and found Bucks. No reservation, we just showed up. Turns out there was a convention in town and they were slammed. Undaunted, they fit us in and Sara took great care of us for my birthday.
The birthday confetti, the wine, the filet, the side cobbler - all fantastic. The entire team made sure we felt special.
If you’re a bourbon person, this is the place!
Come enjoy yourself at a great restaurant with a great atmosphere.
