Bristol Bar & Grille - East

We had a group of 8 people. We all enjoyed the food and service. Also, the advance reservation really helped keep is on time for later meeting.
The staff including manager were very courteous. We will certainly come back in the near future.
If there are any discount incentives please let me know. It would be helpful in selecting our next lunch meeting.
Thanks, Wayne Gunnell

Food was pretty good but a bit more variety would have been nice. It's always good to find something imaginative for Saturday or Sunday brunch.

We ate outside and the table and chairs were dirty. We had to wait for hostess to come clean them. I was amazed by the buffet for Sunday brunch and the price was a great value plus $2 mimosas! Everything I ate was very good. I will definitely go back.

our salads were cold & crisp
the burger was medium well as ordered
the southwest chicken was great

The best thing about The Bristol on Hurstbourne for me and my friends is the fact that we can make a reservation online, with a special request and can get a great dinner and good service every time. This past Friday night was a special occasion, my husband's birthday, and we had no idea who could come to meet us until the last minute. It all turned out well, and we even got the table we wanted.

Our waitress was great!
My only criticism would be that my Old Fashion was way to small for the price- but it was good.

Great food and great service as usual.

Sunday brunch is The Best!!

Fish tacos were so flavorful and a large lunch portion. Pork Dijonnaise never disappoints. Looking forward to another visit.

We had great service, and the food was very good. It was nice being able to so easily make reservations.

The Bristol Sunday brunch is a city staple! Food is always great and fresh. The fried chicken is amazing.

Great food. Lucky enough to get last minute reservation. Will definitely return

Over all the experience was good but there was one incident that I felt could of been handled a little better than he did,My sister purchased the vegetarian burger with fruit,As she was eating she found a bug crawling in her fruit,we told the waiter who immediately contacted the manager,The manager did apologize took the fruit to the chef,,but than brought another bowl out,The thing is how do we know my sister did not miss another bug and ate it.I think even if he did not take the entree off the bill,but he could have at least did a deduction,for the fruit.I realize things happen but it did not speak for the good will of the restaurant

I have eaten at this Bristol Bar & Grille location several times. I never fail to get great service and delicious food! I bring my clients here to celebrate when they have closed on a house (I'm a Realtor) and they always say they would eat there again. It's good to be able to count on this restaurant to always deliver!

Not impressed with flavors of any of the food; upcharge of$2 for a ceaser salad(would have been accepted but it had very little dressing/flavor);had to ask for requested and offered items multiple times(straw, bread, refill). Overall DISAPPOINTED! Was hoping for more because it is a nice looking restaurant and was packed!

The food was good, as usual, but the wait staff was OUTSTANDING!!!

Enjoyable afternoon for a quiet brunch after the gym. . Service was excellent and had the same server we have had the last few trips there.. she is wonderful. Great time.. good food and value!

as always the food was great, the service, too

Consistently, Bristol has great food! Good selection of wines.

Great variety; loved my crab cakes; cosmopolitan drink was way too skimpy. Much more for same money at other restaurants

I had the Pasta Pietro which was wonderfully bursting with flavor in each bite. My friend had the Kale Salad and loved it. The only problem was the noise level was so bad that I missed half the conversation with my friend. Definitely not a place to go for lunch if you have any trouble with conversation and background noise.

Food was delicious and service was fantastic. Brought family from out of town and they loved it.

Food and service are always good! We love the option of eating outside, but it was too hot. The air conditioning was a great escape from the heat!

Always great service! I dream of their green chili wontons.

The meal was excellent. This restaurant is consistent in quality. We have dined at Bristol restaurants since the 1970s.

We had 10 people for brunch the morning after our son's wedding ... we had a great meal before all heading home!

A Louisville jewel. Always good food and attentive service. We ate outside so noise level was acceptable. No rush, server kept glasses filled, and we enjoyed the evening.

Our servers were great! Our salads were delicious!

Bristol's has a nice selection of American cuisine. Their salads with homemade dressings are fresh and delicious.

We sat in the bar area, we just wanted a quick small meal.

We love the Bristol. Especially in the summer when you can eat outside on the patio. Food wonderful as always.

Our party had Pork Dijonaise, Thai Stir Fry and Fish Tacos. All were served were hot and were extremely tasty. Kudos to the kitchen staff who are, according to our waiter, a family culinary group. Good stuff. I highly recommend both The Bristol East and The Bristol Bardstown Road.

Impromptu dinner last night, and it hit the spot. The green chili wontons are always a must; tried the filet Mandarin for the first time, and it was very good. Black bean soup, salads, a chili pasta, and a southern fried chicken dinner were enjoyed. And it was half price wine night! Bristol is a great place for good reliable meals where everyone can find something to fit their taste buds. And the prices are reasonable.

The food and service were excellent. We will be sure to go back soon.

The food was wonderful. Best brunch on town. The buffet was kept filled and clean. Service was outstanding!. We'll be back soon.

We stopped for brunch on Father’s Day. The buffet was awful. The sausage was hard, the chicken was dry, the grits were tasteless. The service was good but the food was very subpar. We enjoy eating at the Bristol but will never be back for brunch.

The dining room needs to be updated so badly. My meal was the Filet Mandarin. It was properly cooked to medium rare, but oddly seasoned. It was bland. The skillet potatoes had a dubious unknown vintage aspect. The won tons and salad rescued the meal for me. The serving team did a great job.

The eggs and mac and cheese were not replenished for 30 minutes. The salmon also was scarce

Always consistently good

I had not attended brunch at The Bristol for about 6 years. I dined at The Bristol East, had a reservation, arrived 30 minutes early, and got right in. The Manager was walking around checking on everyone and very attentive. My server was really nice. I especially liked the fried chicken, roast beef, and macaroni and cheese. Surprisingly, the cost of brunch has not gone up, still slightly under $20. This is a great value for a nice venue, nice people, great food.

The food on the buffet line was cold and several items remained empty for quite some time. I have been a supportive customer of Bristol and have to say it was not good at all.
