    We were in town for a little vacation and my birthday on top of it. It was our first time at a Jeff Ruby’s. I had heard nothing but great things. I honestly expected a nice steakhouse. Well, let me just say, it went above and beyond my expectations. I apologize, I forgot our servers name, it’s been a hectic week, but she was fabulous. I actually decided to go off the reservation and try some seafood. The miso marinated sea bass sounded amazing. Spending most of my life in a professional kitchen, and making similar dishes, I had to try it. Wow, all I have to say, just wow. My wife’s steak was perfect as well. Everything was amazing. If you’re in Louisville and want an amazing experience, come here and I don’t think you can go wrong with anything.

    My friends and I had a phenomenal experience at Steakhouse Bourré Bonne. We were seated promptly and greeted by our server. We ordered specialty cocktails from the cart, and the Oak Smoked Old Fashioned made with Michter's was delicious. For appetizers, we ordered the Lamb Tartare, Lobster Bisque, and a Caesar Salad. The lamb was delicious and the lobster bisque was smooth and creamy. For dinner, two of us ordered the Australian Waygu filets, and the third ordered a bone-in ribeye. The steaks were cooked perfectly medium-rare, and the sides of brussel sprouts and fingerling potatoes were great. We wrapped up our meal with some espressos and were deeply appreciative of the high-quality service we received. 10/10 and we will return!
