Great dining experience! The food was wonderful and our server, Darrell, was so attentive and accommodating it made the entire time we were there unforgettable. The only downside was that the only reservation we could get was at 4:30 pm on a Sunday, but that was because it's so popular there, and despite the high prices. But it was worth it, and we'd happily go back.

Awesome restaurant, we had a reservation at 8pm and went an hour early to sit at the bar and have a drink. We were able to find two seats together without issues. Hostess even offered to sit us early if we wished. Once we made our way to the dining room we were greeted by a very nice waitress who went above and beyond to make our experience awesome. Everything we ate was amazing. Will go back, best steakhouse in Louisville.

As usual, our family meal at The Fat Lamb was delicious. The special butternut squash and sausage with béchamel was rich and tasty, and two members of our party loved the burger and truffle fries. Such a winning combination, the house cocktail is one of my favorite drinks in town. We passed on dessert, having started with the satisfying feta dip.
