    Probably the best restaurant in Bardstown. The food was very good. Drinks are expensive, portions are decent size . The group got the Filet and Steak Frites, salad with chicken. Everything was well seasoned. The wine list needs some improvement, I know most people traveling to Bardstown are more bourbon focused, but the red list was very small and need to add some quality wines that are more familiar.
