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.

Uptown Cafe was good as usual. Food, service and ambiance are still the great neighborhood restaurant we love. However as much as we appreciate the valet parking, the valet ruined our evening. Rude, rude, rude!! Our guests from out of town were shocked at his rudeness. Maybe replace this function with staff that meets the restaurant culture.

Had been a long-time customer of The Uptown when the prior owners ran the restaurant. Upon arrival noticed not many tables were occupied for a lunchtime that was always pretty busy. The wait time for placing our order was much longer than expected or warranted considering the low number of patrons. The menu was a bit confusing and hard to make selections, things didn't quite fit or mix well. The wine we selected was an excellent New Zealand Cabernet Sauvignon Blanc. The following wait time for the food service was extremely long, and unless the kitchen staff was having problems, it was much too long to bother and come back. It is a true shame as there are so few places to go and have an enjoyable lunch that isn't loud and serves good food. The refreshed interior was very pleasing and the menu prices were acceptable, it just needs either better staff or management. The Restaurant business is not an easy field at any time and with staff shortages and the like I'm sure it is even more hard to get all the pieces to fit. Should they make it through the summer, perhaps we will give it another try. I truly hope they can get it turned in the right direction.

Sat outside on a lovely Friday afternoon. Menu was full of great selections and I highly recommend the linguine with sesame chicken and lemon cream sauce. The only real issue was the service was a bit spotty. My girlfriend asked for shrimp in place of tofu in her curry, didn’t happen and never really got a chance to send it back to the kitchen. Outside of the little hiccups with service, we look forward to trying some new menu items on our next visit.

Our table was ready upon arrival, and the server was prompt with taking our drink orders. We ordered the fried green tomatoes as an appetizer, very good and they came out quickly. I ordered salmon and my guest ordered the special of the house, sea scallops. Both meals were prepared exceptionally well and in a timely manner. Very good.

I have written other reviews recommending Uptown Cafe over the years, and I will say it again, "You won't be disappointed you came here!" Last night we had flank steak and our friends had the filets. We have also recently ordered their new baked cod w/mustard seed entree, which is absolutely delicious. The vegetable side dish is always a treat! The potatoes au gratin which came with our flank steak could have been a vegetarian meal in and of itself. The wine list is always top notch. The noise level is perfect: it is quiet enough that you can have a conversation with other diners. Oops! I am going too far....I don't want this secret to get out of what a great restaurant this is!

This was our first time to visit this restaurant. We thought the chef and sous chefs creativity and technique were exceptional and delivered new dishes that we have not found anywhere else in Louisville. We think we are good cooks so we appreciate a restaurant to impress us and both of our dishes did that! I had the chicken liver salad! Can you believe there is such a thing! And my husband had the daily special which was a chicken breast with mushroom brown sauce and some kind of noodles. We were exceptionally pleased.
