I would have given this five stars, but one thing I could not get over: You are eating in a big freaking house, and (at least in our sitting area) you can hear pretty much any conversation going on nearby. Â They need to add some sort of music that is piped throughout the entire dining area. Â Perhaps a mic'd up piano player or something. Â Then - 5 stars. Â
We had the steak / gnocchi appetizers - both were great. Â Lamb / steak for dinner - I had the lamb and it was wonderful. Â
Desserts - fritters / bread pudding - two of the best desserts I have ever tried. Â
If I had to change anything - it would be the portion size / cost of the entrees - a bit too much $$$ for what you get (when compared to a place like Jack Fry's at least). Â
Wines by the glass had some of the best selection of any restaurant in Louisville (not the breadth, more the quality of the wine that is offered). Â
Would recommend this place for a fancy night out. Â Be prepared to spend about $100 / head for three courses and wine.
Traveling to Louisville for business and of course checked out Yelp. Â Corbett's had a good rating and sounded interesting. Â Gave it a shot and so glad I did.
The food was fantastic. Â Each course we had surpased the prior (we stopped at dinner as we were full). Â They knew thier wines as well. Â
We started with the mussels and they were very good. Â Did not taste fishy at all which says they were fresh. Â The garlic wine sauce was good (don't forget to use your bread also). Â Next came the soup of the day, which was a chowder that was very flavorful. Â For the main meal I had pork tenderlion tourneados and they were cooked to perfection. Â Extremely flavorful and the accompanying sauce was excellent.
Service was very attentive and the little name tag on the table (I had made a reservation) was a nice touch. Â The dining room is in an old house so has a homey feel.
Would highly recommend Corbett's. Â Wierd location next to Costco, but I believe Corbett's was there first. Â Would definitely go back again.
We went here for the first time on New Year's Eve. Normally, I'm incredibly reluctant to get forced into pre-set menus for special events.
So...I made a joke about asking for the lunch menu. The blue-hairs at the table next to me glared in my direction.
Honestly, I was impressed with the service and food quality, though I would have preferred to choose my own meal. The girls loved the wine pairing, and I was more than happy with the staff's bourbon selection.
I will go back here, but I may have to save my pennies to afford the lunch menu. My advice? Get your in-laws to pay for it when they come to town!
