Great food and atmosphere! We enjoyed the cheese and the vegetarian options were delicious. There appeared be only one server so the service was extremely slow and the courses came out in the wrong order. However the food and ambience was so good, we’re going to try again and hope the service was a fluke.

Salt and Pepper Calamari was excellent as was the Raclette over fingerling potatoes. Didn’t love my scallop dish. Staff was outstanding and cheese monger was the real deal. You could tell she loves what she sells and is happy to share her knowledge cheerfully.

I did not pay for the meal so I’m not sure about value but the prices are fair. My friend loved everything she had and said the Char Sui pork ribs were “ the best I’ve ever had”. We love the potato wedges and the cheese plate I had was great.. love all the accompaniments. Servers are very knowledgeable about the cheeses and will give good guidance. Great!

I hate writing this review. We came in with moderate expectations based on reviews. Menu seemed exciting and adventurous. Hostess was rude and not welcoming (we clearly seemed like a bother having had a reservation.) Order was delivered totally wrong. Not sure if this is the same for dinner, but at lunch there is NO service- order at the bar and pretend like nothing is wrong when food is delivered, and no one having ever checked to see how food was “okay”. Food was, in fact, not good. Pork roll, which tasted like like pork fat (don’t think pork belly, think fat) and a squash and mushroom bowl with no flavor (that by the rude cashier was confirmed by asking if we wanted to pay extra for avocado) which was delivered, clearly known by the two employees to our table incorrectly- plot twist- we ordered the chicken bowl and of the two employees working neither chose to acknowledge this. I ate two bites of my sandwich and we left about 8 minutes later. Do better. We might be back but a very bad first impression. Update- restaurant reached out with pleasant response. We may try again.

We had a fantastic dinner here with some out of town guests! It was a hard time choosing from the unique & innovative menu, but we settled on sharing the vegemite beef skewers, scallop & curry pie, summer tomato risotto, & crab stuffed fried chicken. Every bite was delicious & had me eagerly anticipating the next. The kids also loved their hot dogs & chips. I had to take some of their house made chips for myself. So tasty! Although, we were pretty full we couldn’t resist finishing our meal with the banoffee pie & burnt mango cheesecake. We made the right call, both great with the espresso martini! If you’re looking for a cool place to wow your friends/family & showcase the awesome Louisville food scene, this is the spot to take them.

I’ve been dying to try Harvey’s! I used to live in Louisville and ordered several boards from their cheese shop so I knew to expect good things from the restaurant. It did not disappoint! We went for dinner, were seated right away (I made a reservation) and promptly ordered drinks from their fabulous menu. I started with the goat cheese infused vodka blueberry lavender shrub. It was almost too pretty to drink! Whoever they have mixing drinks knows what they’re doing! You can’t go wrong - we tried three different cocktails and they were all so interesting and perfectly balanced. As for the food - we loved everything we ordered. The potato wedges are crispy and seasoned well, paired with the “Aussie sauce” of creme and sweet chili, you won’t miss the catsup! The scallop curry pie was comforting, but not too heavy. The star of the night were the ribs with Chinese five spice fried corn! Weeks later and I’m still thinking about that sweet, spicy corn. They have a kid’s menu, which I appreciate, but we went with a cheese board, which was fun for the kids. I’ve heard good things about their burger, but didn’t realize it’s only on the lunch menu. Next time, I’ll plan my trip to Louisville around the days Harvey’s is open. Yup! It’s that good!

Had such an amazing experience at Harvey’s lastnight! We started with the calamari that came with a delicious creamy sauce and wagu beef skewers that had excellent flavor. We then moved on the the risotto, meat pie, potato wedges, and bok choy. The risotto was melt in your mouth creamy, the meat pie was a fun twist on comfort food with bone marrow in the middle, super unique and delicious! The potato wedges and bok choy had great flavor- definitely recommend both as sides. You’re not going to find flavors like this anywhere else in Louisville. Highly recommend for a date night, special occasion, or just a fun day/night out! Can’t wait to come back!

A memorable experience with clean, expertly prepared dishes. Started with the tender, lightly breaded calamari followed by prawn toast. Next up was the beef wagyu skewer. We finished with the cheese plate for dessert. It was one of the best cheese plates we have ever had. We highly recommend Harvey's and everything we ate, but do save room for the cheese.

Had a wonderful dinner with friends at Harvey’s, and trust me, I’ll be back! The cheesemonger, who happened to be our server, helped us choose a variety of options for the evening. She paired a cheese called Prairie Breeze with a garlic pepper jelly and it was the most fantastic bite ever. We purchased more to take home! While Harvey’s is known for their meat and cheese from their time at Logan Street Market, let me say, the menu offers other things you MUST try! We had the roasted beets (coffee vinaigrette, tete de Moine, grapefruit, marcona almond), raclette & fingerlings (confit smashed fingerling potatoes, melted raclette cheese, rocket & pickled red onion salad, lemon pesto vinaigrette), wagyu beef skewers (vegemite & red wine glaze, lemon, chives), Tasmanian scallop & curry pie (bay scallop, leeks, potato, coconut milk, lime leaf), and burnt mango cheesecake. Yes, please! I loved everything about my experience at Harvey’s. See you all again soon!
