We are big fans of Uptown going back 25 or 30 years. We have come to expect very good and interesting meals, nice services and a welcoming atmosphere. We got almost all of this on this visit but not quite. Service and atmosphere were as good as always and my wife's meal was a delight. However, my cod with the citrus mustard dressing was a big let down. It presented beautifully but it was not at all warm and had only a small dab of the sauce at one end of the filet. I asked for, and was promptly provided with more sauce, but I did not ask for the meal to be warmed. I should have. That was my fault and I accept that. But it never should have been delivered cold to begin with. I realize these things happen and we are not about to stop eating here. But I did think you needed to know you didn't get it quite right on this visit .

As always, the Uptown was great! However, the $12 martini turned in to a $16 drink with the $4 charge for the 2 olives!!! A martini typically comes with olives and to charge for olives is ridiculous! $4 for 2 olives is as much as one would pay for a jar. This would make us not to want to return to a restaurant that we have patronized for at least 30 years! He did not order vodka on the rocks…..he ordered a martini.

Honestly this was probably the worst lunch my son and I have ever had, and not because of the food. Our service was terrible. The server had the table next to us as well and those 2 gentleman received prompt service. I can’t help to think it was because they were in business attire and my son and I were enjoying our day off and didn’t dress up. Evidently that affects the service you review at this establishment. If that doesn’t bother you then you will probably have a fine experience. I, however, do not believe service should be based on that. He left our drinks empty more or less the entire time and really behaved as we were an inconvenience. I tipped a little over 20% not because of the service but to hopefully not add to his assumption that a particular type of looking person tops less. But we will never be back. I’ve had better service at Taco Bell at 1 am

We’ve lived in Louisville for two years and this was by far the worst restaurant we’ve been to here. The food was horrible. No taste at all. And what you could taste was salty or hot from possibly white pepper. I’m not sure how I’m the world this place got such good reviews. And the service🤦🏻‍♀️ our server couldn’t seem to do more then one thing at a time. He would go get a drink, take a plate back then be out 10 min later and pass us by. I didn’t get to order my salad bc he cut us off from talking after we ordered the appetizer. We waited so long to order, I eventually had to stop him to ask him if we could order. We couldn’t get out of there fast enough. Will not be going back or recommending to anyone.

Great food and drinks. Staff very helpful in moving tables around outside so that we could dine outdoors. This required wiping down tables that had gotten wet from an earlier rain and carrying one table from one side of the patio to another to move two square tables together. All in our party enjoyed their food. Great Old-Fashioned. Chicken Piccata was very good.

We enjoyed cocktails and a lite dinner with friends recently and were very satisfied with food and service. Julie was very attentive as our server and made several recommendations. We ended up sharing the chicken piccata and the Jeagerschnitzel. Also had two delicious wedge salads. Dessert was shared lemon coconut cheesecake. A great evening for the four of us.

ISO a nice meal visiting town. Weird experience—bland food, very loud room; they seated us in the back and that was verified from the stares of the pretentious patronage that we didn’t “fit in.” Staff was cordial, tho I won’t be returning.

As usual the Uptown was a great dining experience! They were quite busy as it was a Friday night- but the service was still top notch and friendly. The food was perfect and I even tried a new drink that was fabulous, some margarita/sparkling wine concoction in a martini glass that was divine! I am always impressed by the mixing expertise of the bartender there. Thanks for a lovely dinner out, my hubby and I both enjoyed it.
