I had a wonderful experience at Repeal Oak Fired Steakhouse. My ribeye was cooked to perfection, and the roasted mushrooms were a great side. I also enjoyed two whisky sours...the drinks were amazing. I’m definitely coming back!

Absolutely incredible. Havana in Louisville. From the moment you enter and are hit with the music and energy to the amazing decor, the attentive waitstaff, it’s the beginning of an awesome meal. The ceviche and barquitos were as good as any we’ve had. The vaca was perfectly tender and crispy and the black beans are truly magical. Love the raw sugar cane in the drinks too. This place deserves all of its accolades!

I've been to steakhouses all over the world. I always get the filet oscar. Tonight I had the best one I've ever had. It was amazing. Nice crust without tasting burnt, creamy mashed potatoes and fantastic mac and cheese. I'm considering booking a long weekend and taking a 5-hour drive just to bring my wife down to try this restaurant.

The White Castle Valentine’s Day experience has been a tradition for my husband and since the beginning and we appreciate the care the Elizabethtown staff made to ensure it was a memorable experience. Their formal attire, desserts and table service was too notch. (The wings made it even more special!)
