Fried pickles were good. But I got loaded baked potato w brisket, it was
all fatt pieces. No smokey flavor, and very much bland even adding salt, bbq sauce etc. we also got the fried chicken which was very bland as well, side of mash potatoes lacked flavor.we had a super nice server so that was nice! Overall probably won't be back

Omg! Came in for breakfast we had the biscuit & egg sandwich which is the most amazing biscuit I’ve ever had. Delicious, fluffy and moist. Later same day we stopped in for BBQ. Had the chicken which was amazing. Sides were green beans & mashed potatoes that were fresh and cooked perfectly. Not to mention the walls of bourbon. This place is a must have. We only had a day in Louisville but man I wish we stayed longer. Staff were super friendly and informative with menu & bourbon. We truly loved this experience.

We had breakfast at the Biscuit House. The number one rule of all restaurants, if it is in the name, it had better be great. Rule number one was broken by Biscuit House. The biscuit was not great, it wasn't even good. The grits, which I have loved at the Smokehouse, were terribly overcooked. The service was good considering she was bartending, serving and seating. The bourbon cream latte was amazing! We may give this another try but with so many choices in the area, it is hard to return to a poor experience.

My 1st time to the Wiskey row district. I was pleasantly surprised by their excellent bourbon selections available before even looking at my menu. The atmosphere was perfect, the smell of BBQ and great service, we ordered our drinks which were promptly served and proceeded to try to choose from an amazing menu. The beef brisket was our choice and it didn't disappoint, boy was it delicious. We really enjoyed the whole experience and I would highly recommend them as a stop if you downtown going to the YUM center.

If the food was not good it would’ve been a 1 star review. We were extremely disappointed with our experience here. Our server barely said 2 words to us, we could barely hear her, we never got checked on, and our entrees came out before our appetizers. Food got cold so we had to send it back. The other servers seemed attentive to their tables so could’ve just been our luck. However, we will not be going back
