    We ALWAYS have a fabulous experience at Anoosh Bistro. Allen was a great server - punctual and attentive without being obvious, great sense of humor, knowledgeable about the menu. I selected the special - Sea Bass and it was superb. Portion just right, wonderful flavor profile, and tasted great. I had the Bib lettuce salad which was the perfect light flavorful dish before the entrée. We think the wine menu is wonderful but maybe a little short on the rose selections BUT we had a beautiful deep color bottle of Chateau de Manissy and were really impressed. One of the more deeply red colored, full body rose wines and perfect with my fish. Really didn't have the room, but we split the lemon cheesecake with blueberries for a fabulous finish. Entire staff was on point and made us feel like a king and queen. Missed seeing Anoosh - he had family in for th weekend - it's great that he can take off work occasionally and still be responsible for a memorable experience at the Bistro.

    Food was delicious. Restaurant was quiet so we could all have a conversation without having to yell across the table. Initially a mixup with some wine, but the correct wine was served to a member of our group. Tables were quickly cleared of dishes. We had to ask for bread, which may be the usual way to serve at this establishment, but truly like a little something when imbibing. Another mixup bringing us two pepper shakers instead of salt and pepper and two bourbon drinkers asked for two cherries in their drinks, but only received one. The Chilean Sea Bass special was incredible as well as the beef ribs. Dessert, black forest cake, was fantastic as well. All in all an exceptional restaurant, but a bit on the pricey side.

    My husband and I went to Anoosh for his birthday, having noted that when I made the reservation, and when we arrived there was a card on our table wishing him a happy birthday and we got the lemon cheesecake on the house for dessert and it was terrific! It was sweet that they recognized his birthday and personalized our experience. Every single bite from each dish was beyond words. I never thought I would find anyone who could prepare turnips the way my grandmother did and the ones with my sea bass were exceptional. I couldn’t believe it. The whole experience was amazing, and our server was as well.

    TOP NOTCH✨ we had friends coming back to Louisville for a visit for a long weekend started the celebration out with a night at Anoosh Bistro. It was their first visit and all I can say is it won’t be their last. This is one of the things that makes Louisville great. A fabulous local chef Anoosh Shariat makes sure that everyone who comes into his restaurant feels like they’re in their own dining room. The food is absolutely amazing service perfection, and his daughter Danielle, making fabulous drinks at the bar take it to the next level. If you want to go somewhere and impress your friends in or out of town, this is the place to be. ❣️

    We went for our anniversary. My wife has the grilled portobello mushroom salad & I had the KY bib lettuce salad. Both were excellent! We both had the sea bass entrée which was outstanding. Desserts were the sticky toffee pudding & berries & cream. Both were excellent. One was complementary for the anniversary. A bottle of Monte Gorna Etna Bianco complemented the meal well. Service was excellent - attentive but not intrusive. Still not used to the price increases at restaurants! An overall outstanding experience, just be prepared to pay for it! 😀

    Anoosh Bistro is easily the best restaurant in Louisville. The food is the best. Anoosh makes his way around the restaurant to greet and get to know diners when he is not "chefing", and is a great guy - it's very clear he cares about making the best food and providing a great environment. The staff and culture clearly embrace the example he sets. They are willing to cook off menu, and give a personal touch.

    Anoosh Bistro is a hidden gem among Louisville's fine dining offerings, but it shouldn't be hidden. Restaurant devotees should do themselves a favor and check it out. Far too many of Louisville's fine restaurants shine and then disappear. Don't let this one.

    The best service (Adam) and quality of food. Will go back anytime but for the money, the lamb chops should have had a few more chops. I wish the wine list was a little deeper with more price points, but these are not knocks…a great place to go anytime and we will always return for more!

    I enjoyed my dinner late Thursday, 3/30/23. Barrett took excellent care of me. I had the grilled artichoke, yum. Next, I enjoyed the mushrooms salad, the special. For the entree, the salmon was wonderful! For dessert, the apple cake with the bourbon ice cream was delicious!!! Thank you for a fun night! 😊

    My siblings and I treated my mom to dinner. Everyone had the best time! They don’t normally do fine dining and they had the best experience. My sister in law was so impressed by all the gluten free options she had to choose from (basically a whole menu). She was so excited to order. She even got her own GF bread. Mr. Anoosh came through many times to check on us. I was so happy and I will definitely be back.

    My husband and I both ordered the Ky Bibb salad with a bourbon vinaigrette and the beef filet. The salad was a small side salad portion for $14. It was fresh and the flavors worked well together, although I didn’t taste bourbon in the dressing. Two slices of French bread with pesto topping and a cream sauce were also brought to the table and were a nice complement to the salad. The $62 steak was tender and cooked perfectly to order and the sauce was delicious. The accompanying asparagus and carrots were roasted and well seasoned, but a very small serving. The au gratin potatoes were flavored nicely but not fully cooked until soft, and had a slight “raw” bite. We were not inspired to order wine with our meal because we didn’t need an entire bottle and we were not impressed with the selection of wines by the glass.
