Black Rabbit 122 Sears Avenue, Louisville, KY 40207

"Our large party (23ish) reserved private room. We were provided a center room where several patrons outside of our party walked through to get from the front to the back, or back to front room room. Only mention this for large parties in future in case expectation is one of privacy. Based on the private party room location (a walk through for this restaurant) you probably won't get it. We had three large sitting areas after as many of the tables we could push together without creating a fire hazard. The high back chairs were awesome! Super comfortable! While our servers were top notch, there were only two of them. This made everything slow and created situations where some people had drinks, appetizers, salads, entrées etc and others waited.. and waited... For our size party a minimum of three servers, preferably four may have prevented this. Two =too few. It was several hours before our dinner orders were even taken. It made for a longer than expected night. (Thankfully everyone in our party enjoys each other's company!) lol Most everyone enjoyed the food and the speak easy charm. I ordered the trout which I was not a fan of. Skin on, was not crisp. Very fishy, and I tasted earth.. wondering if beets was an ingredient? I would not recommend the trout. I had a great salad prior though with blue cheese and apples. While many appetizers were ordered and enjoyed I didn't sample any. I tried three of the desserts though and if you like a rich sweet chocolate, go for the one with marshmallows. As a Pescetarian, I personally would not return as there was only trout or redfish option and no good solid vegetarian option barring the fish selection. That said, if you're a carnivore, I heard there are several great selections to choose from."

"One of the coolest places in town. If it's not reserved for a private event, go around the side, find the secret entrance, and enjoy the speakeasy. And if you're looking for a cool event space, any room in Black Rabbit would be amazing, but The Burrow is my favorite. Great food. Great drinks. Great staff. Great atmosphere. And great portions! Where the menu says large plates, they mean it literally! So so good."

"What an absolute gem! Best bourbon selection for a great price. The food was on point. Chef Justin does an amazing job, and Sherman and his team know how to take care of their guests. Reserve early, and enjoy a cocktail or two in the speakeasy. 10/10 will be back."

"There was nothing “speakeasy” about our experience in the dining room; We sat in the dining room, the lights were bright, no hidden entrance. The back bar area was red, dark and looked more of the speakeasy vibe. The service was slow but fine/server was polite and apologetic for the speed. The food was pretty good. The cheese board was great as were the cocktails! I think I was underwhelmed because of the expectations I had. I thought it would be a fun experience and yes, the rabbit decor was whimsical, but there was no hidden entrance to anywhere that we saw. Some guests were dressed in 20s attire which made of fun. I’m glad we tried it."
