    Lamb. Stuffed. Cabbage. Also, for those cold winters in Louisville… you can't go wrong with their Guinness beef stew. One of the last places in Louisville that you can still get benedictine.

    I have been here several times. I went last night and found a new fave, the lamb stuffed cabbage rolls. They were absolutely amazing!!!

    The ambiance is great and they have a wonderful selection of rotating craft beers. It is almost like gourmet Irish cuisine if such a thing exists. They also have mussels.

    Fish and Chips, extra vinegar, and a Newcastle with a couple of ounces of bourbon (neat) on the side. That is all you ever need know.

    The mussels are amazing. Current price as of today is $10.99. The Rover Chicken was bland and a waste of money, though the mustard saved it.
