Discover St. Matthews
St. Matthews is a residential neighborhood in the north end of Louisville, Kentucky that offers a great variety of foods. Cajun food, a Louisville favorite, is authentic here and combined with some fresh fusion options that make for wonderful vegetarian dishes. A focus on what is fresh is important here, and local produce that's in season is always a special on the menu. Classic Southern barbecue is a favorite, and it is smoked and slow-cooked for days to make it delectable. American, Mexican, and Southern are popular and widely available. Sports bars are also very popular here if you want to take in a game and enjoy some potato skins and brew after a long day.
