Black Jockey's Lounge

The food was amazing and we had 6 ppl with us so we got to taste a little bit of everything. The only downfall was the wait for the food, but that will not keep us from returning when we visit Louisville again.

The food was AMAZING!
• Steak and Brussels (yummy)
• Diavolo Pasta was perfection
• Salmon was delicious
• GET THE MAC & CHEESE
• Burger was also delicious
The chef greeted our table & asked us about our meal.... she was VERY nice!
We were celebrating a birthday dinner and they were very accommodating to our requests.

I had a great Dining experience at Black Jockey's Lounge from the moment entering the Door. Service was right with you after take a seat , very pleasant and helpful with placing your order. Received food within a reasonable time frame entrees were Hot and Presentation awesome.

I would without a thought recommend Black Jockey's Lounge to my Friends and Travel Clients

Well it was a big party we was with. Took a while to get food 2 hr window. Not please with the serving size for the amount of money. The waiter did the best she could do.

Open table was amazing. Great service, great food. 👌🏼Just elegant

Wow we were so disappointed. Beautiful atmosphere, I love the new theme. I was a customer of Encore so I was very familiar and suggested brunch to my family and I was really embarrassed. ALL OF OUR OARTY HAD FOOD ISSUES!! The worst being the Chef came out and asked us how we liked our bacon and everyone said crispy and the bacon came out barely done!!!! The waffles were so cold and spongy and the edges were hard, same with the French toast. My sausage were hard like they been microwaved but yet they were cold. For coffee refills the server collected cups from our table AND another table to refill them which to me was huge issue if they mixed the cups up?!?!? It’s freaking Covid going on, do y’all not have coffee pots. We were still charged full price even tho we sent the French toast and the waffles back and when they came out again ... still cold still not edible. So we just didn’t eat them. No sunsets apology except from the server. I can’t recommend until I’ve heard the food quality and service is better. Also why does the food come out on saucers? The eggs, the gas browns, sausage all came out on small plates? I want this to be so successful. The gentleman that came to our table and told us the story of the Jockeys seems very passionate but if the food quality and service ain’t on point people ain’t gon care about them jockeys. Aside from the food and service the place is beautiful and I live the high seating and the leather barstools.

The place was booked, which was great for them and happy to see a new restaurant doing well. However, they still have some kinks to work out because the service was very slow. The food was good; drinks were tasty and the prices were okay. It was great having live music again at a restaurant too! We will be back and hopefully, the kinks will be worked out and things get better!

This was our 1st time and BJL did not disappoint. The extra level of protection with the temp taking was awesome. I felt comfortable from start to finish. And the food...my goodness. I booked brunch for my Birthday 3/28 before leaving, called a few friends, and smiled the next day when I finished off my ribs. You must go and treat yourself, then go back and treat someone else!

The service at this restaurant was very disappointing. We entered at 7:45 and did not receive our entree until 10:30.
Our waitress came to the table numerous times stating they were working it. The chef came out walked the floor greeting people STILL no food. Then by 10pm the manager only wanted to offer us a cocktail for the delay. Do not eat here .

Excellent service! Be sure to ask Calvin Davis for a history lesson on Black Jockeys as well as the art hanging on the walls. Highly recommend. Food was great; the Chef even introduced herself.

Very nice! Would visit again. The environment was very nice. The service and food was also amazing

It was amazing in every way. The chef even came out to see how our food was.

Great food, excellent service.

We arrived at the 7:45, place our drink ordeRs at 8:15 replaced our food orders two minutes later I did not receive any food with no explanation as to why we left the restaurant at 10:15 very upset and frustrated

We had reservations at 6:30 and we left at 9:00 without eating. We were told it would be another hour before we got our food!

Amazing restaurant! The food was so good, the ambiance is perfect. There’s a virtual fire place big enough to see from any seat, music playing, dim lighting. Very romantic and such an experience.

Excellent spot, food is amazing.
