   We enjoyed the ambience, food and especially the drinks and DJ. We went 2 nights in a row while staying Downtown Louisville.

   The noodles in my Mac and cheese was hard they replaced them only to come with paper in it and then they replaced them again which still wasn’t good. The collards was horrible the best part was the fish and that wasn’t saying much. My experience for the first time being there just wasn’t good for the amount of money that was spent.

   So, here's the odd thing about this place. Everything online was super up front, in your face about the 2 hour time limit on the table. I didn't think that would be a problem since me and my family doesn't sit around talking forever. But we were the only ones in the restaurant when they opened.... and the service was SLOOOOOW. Like 50 minutes in and they hadn't taken our order slow. And we all pretty much went in there knowing what we wanted. So at 45 minutes (this is before they took our order since the waitress kept disappearing for 15 minutes at a time).... someone came over and reminded us of the 2 hour time limit..... If I hadn't been with my mom, celebrating her birthday, I would have said "then your waitress should do her job and not take a 15 minute break in between taking our drink and appetizer orders...". By the time our food got there, and we ordered dessert.... we were pretty darn close to that 2 hour limit... And this is when they opened and we were literally the only ones in the place. I can't imagine what the service is like when they're busy... I'll be back because the food was that good, but jury is out on if the service at the next visit will make me every come back.

   The service was on point. The atmosphere was very conducive for a Sunday brunch. The food was hot and tasty and the peach cobbler was phenomenal! I scheduled for a good of ten and was accommodated accordingly. Our group’s only complaint was the food service trays were provided on excessively elevated tables. They were definitely not conducive, the life fell back too far, and they were not user friendly for vertically challenged not handicapped persons. Otherwise, kudos are extended.

    Horrible service, they didn't even seem to know we were there except for one of the waiters. $40 for prepaid reservation with little service. We didn't receive any commendable service. We got beverages after 45 minutes of sitting. Won't return

    The food did not have any seasoning. I paid $40 for a table and a glass of champagne. We had been under the impression that it was going to be 40 per person but it was 20 per person and that included a 3 course meal. Advertising was not clear. I over paid which did allow me to use a credit for my bill.

    NEVER do that again! Charged $30 to get in for a “so called” Valentines event with two full hours of poor service, a horrible band and we had to eat at a table with people we didn’t know. We could’ve come on any other day and experienced a better band, better service, better seating and no cover charge. I feel like I got robbed of my time & money! This used to be my spot when traveling through KY. It’s unlikely that I will come back.

    We had reservations for dinner, before we were to see Trevor Noah at The Louisville Palace. After a bit of a snafu, we were taken care of immediately by the hostess. Seated in a great spot to people watch outside. Our server was very knowledgable, helpful and friendly. We started with a cocktail, a very generous pour. We decided to try the spinach salad, it was Amazing! It was big enough you could share. We then shared a cheeseburger, cooked to perfection. We finished our evening with a cocktail, I had an Old Fashioned, it was delicious, and my husband had a shot of Uncle Nearest 90 proof. Both excellent choices. The ambiance has a very speakeasy kind of feel. The decor is beautiful. They have a stage so they can have live music. In fact they were closing early for a private event. We got to hear the band warming up for that evening's show. Very nice. We will definitely come back again.

    We appreciated the start to our evening, the setting, service, drinks and food were all on point! As the evening progressed though service slowed and at one point a round of drinks sat on the bar for approximately 10 minutes before being delivered to the table. That in and of itself wasn’t a deal breaker though it happened again and eventually it seemed as if it cost us an opportunity at desert, and perhaps a night cap, as our evening was abruptly cut short when the server (Jager) brought our checks and advised that our reservation was running “long” and that they “needed the table”. Now, I understand that an establishments capacity, especially on a busy night, is a constraint on earnings though given the delays we’re created by the house I was perplexed to say the least. Additionally, many other tables within the restaurant reminded empty while they rushed to clear ours, even as one of our friends struggled to finish his last drink. So, what could’ve been a stellar dining experience ends on a “bad note” and consensus amongst our party of eight, all first time diners, probably our last at the Black Jockey.

    It was just ok, there was no wow factor for me. It was crowded, the live band was nice. The food was ok. I’ve been before and my date had never been. Had to keep sending drinks back they just where not right. I don’t know if I will return.

    Only negative, the music was just a little too loud for my brunch ears. The location was spot on, buffet style food that didn't disappoint. The shrimp and grits were the star of the show. Enjoyed my blueberry mimosa as well! The staff were great, and our server was extremely funny. Definitely a spot worth trying. I want to check out the vibe for dinner.

    This was my first visit. The music, atmosphere and service were great. Chicken tenders needed seasoning, French toast was mushy, and the bacon was greasy. The eggs and fried potatoes were decent. If I went back it would only be for drinks and to listen to the band, not to eat.

    Overall I was disappointed in the service and the quality of the food. This was my second time here. My first visit was excellent! The food and services was exceptional! Therefore I expected my second experience to be exceptional as well and it was not. My biggest disappointment was the greens because the greens were very sweet. The waitress told me the chef said he used coconut milk in it. The menu didn’t state that coconut was a ingredient. I ordered exactly the same dinner as I did in the past the catfish and greens. I will not order that meal again because the chef deviated from the menu.

    Waa seated promptly with our reservations. Waited 45 minutes and no one acknowledged our table or brought water. Once the hostess was notified she immediately started serving us and put a waitress on our table. The waitress apologized, stating she was not aware that her tables had changed and she was our waitress. We ordered food and drinks at once out of fear of another long wait. Food and drinks came in a timely manner but was definitely overpriced. $15 for a run runner and draft beer was about the same price. It was good but not $80 good for chicken wings and Alfredo. We were celebrating a birthday so it was cool for that vibe but nothing I would be enthusiastic about visiting again.
