TaintSmack .May 28, 2017Great BBQ spot with good drinks and large portions. Share the heap'n chips with your BFF Jill, grab some brisket tacos, perhaps enjoy some ribs or a fried oyster po boy. The Docta will see you now.
Upvoted 2 weeks ago- Backpacking BrittsFebruary 24, 2016One of the best places we went in Louisville. The food is incredible, the drinks are well crafted and the staff is super friendly and knowledgeable! Bartenders know their craft!!
Valerie RouseAugust 1, 2013This Kentucky Girl loved the Wilbur Sundae!! The perfect mix of great vanilla ice cream, bourbon caramel, salty, smokey bacon and cinnamon pork rinds. All topped with a bourbon soaked cherry. Tuners
Carolina EscobarJanuary 16, 2015Had the 20oz house beer, loaded baked potato, and the bread pudding. Needless to say, I AM STUFFED AND HAPPY. p.s. the bartenders here - so sweet, so hot.
Sara ClaybaughApril 23, 2021Doc's Fried Chicken & Fries was so good. Be sure to get the bourbon honey with it, sooo yummy. My husband enjoyed the BBQ sampler with the Baby Back Ribs and Mac & cheese to die for.

Kurt EJune 21, 2011Best BBQ in town. Don't sweat the guy with the squirrelly hat taking names up front. He's been a douche to me or my friends on a number of occasions. Putting up with his attitude is worth the food.
Nate BoatengNovember 11, 2016Pulled pork, Mac, and greens were all ridiculous. We bought our 8 month old, but the staff was very accommodating. Place is HUGE. Delicious BBQ.
Glenn BeckmannJanuary 17, 2015Oysters were outstanding. Lots of varieties to chose from. Smoked wings are amazing. And I can't recommend the Lima beans enuf! Yes!! Lima beans.
Serhii LutskoAugust 17, 2017Their ribs and cocktails are something. Oysters were not bad as well. Worth to visit
Pam PalmerJuly 28, 2016Catfish on Catfish platter was good. Food is very hot. Fried okra was delicious. Portion sizes for the "sides" are huge. Hushpuppies are very salty. Decent prices. Waitress was a little slow.
Daniel BarnettOctober 19, 2014In NYC, this place would thrive in the meat packing district. Need a reservation for a table, but if you can find a spot at the bar, do it!
Norman EllisAugust 23, 2014Great place to dine alone. Sit at the bar, eat yourself silly, chat with the friendly bartenders or the other folks near you and have a great time.
Viren KaulMay 4, 2022Blackened fish, pulled pork, cheese grits, and greens all 7-8/10, great location, friendly staff.
Just Add BourbonJune 21, 2012One of the newest stops on the Urban Bourbon Trail, be sure and grab your passport from the server and ask for one of their specialty bourbon flights.
Mimi NguyenMarch 28, 2016Great selection of local beers and the food was fantastic. Highly recommend the shrimp and grits!
Jamie SillsApril 4, 2014Love, Love, Love this place! Great atmosphere & the food is wonderful! Get the crab cakes, they are delicious!
Jenelle GrilesSeptember 17, 2018This King George English brown ale is quite tasty 😋 I’m looking forward to my fried catfish 👍🏽
Cori WrightApril 24, 2013Great atmosphere, delicious food, glorious drinks and awesome servers. I'll come back to Louisville just to come to this restaurant.

Zach RApril 20, 2015Pecan Pie. Don't leave until you have it. Force yourself to eat it. It is ridiculously good.
Allen VoglianoFebruary 23, 2017The Bubba burger was delicious! And the drink menu looked like a small novel.
louisville.comFebruary 1, 2012"This New Orleans-flavored joint boasts oysters in multiple preparations and a delicious selection of po' boys. The bread, you should know, is flown in from New Orleans."
Dusty SegrettoJuly 12, 2012On the other hand, the Lima beans are literally the best I've ever had. Get them even if you don't like Lima beans.
Jazzie ChanelDecember 24, 2017Pretty place but would pass on the food. Good sized side portions but meat on the sampler platter was skimpy. Good drink selection but not impressed w anything else. Lima beans and okra are good!
ParkerJune 13, 2012Great home style smokehouse food with an upbeat speakeasy feel. Top shelf burger is the best around.
Order the heapin' chips for an appetizer, then subsitute sweet potato fries for the chips for your sandwich! Thank me later.
This is a great place to try some "new" bourbon.
Jerry LucasJuly 24, 2015Bourbon, barbecue, and service. Manager was jerky, however. Guess they can be.
Sebastian BarthelmessSeptember 1, 2015Oh almost forgot, service was top notch here... even late. Posting this after closing and place is still hopping.- Sebastian BarthelmessSeptember 1, 2015We smoke our own meat back home, but man the pulled pork here is AMAZING!
- Megan BlissJanuary 23, 2012Heapin chips are delicious!!!! They are an appetizer but I always eat them as my meal right after I devour a wedge salad
Rich DeLucia Jr.September 14, 2014If you want a table it's best to make a reservation. Food was fantastic.
Amy WMarch 25, 2011The Wedge Salad is great for starters! Crisp iceberg with tomato, bleu cheese crumbles, red onion, house smoked bacon and bleu cheese dressing $5
Cindy MonroeNovember 11, 2011Derric made our first Doc Crow experience fabulous! Delish suggestions and excellent hospitality!
Tiffany BarwickDecember 21, 2012Best Old Fashion I've had! Try it with the bourbon Angel's Envy! Incredible!
