- LLauraSouth Carolina •13 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe started the night elsewhere for cocktails, but the "Smokey and Dangerous" cocktail we had here was the best thing we drank all night. Everything we ordered was delicious, but the Cassoulette was an outstanding entree that we are still talking about days later. The service was thoughtful and all the staff we interacted with were very kind. I enjoyed the dark ambience and cozy table settings. Would definitely recommend!More infoCURED Restaurant & SalumeriaPrice: Expensive• Contemporary Italian• Butchertown•4.6
- RRichardChicago / Illinois •7 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoOutstanding place to dine. Food was superbly prepared. Our waiter, Richard was attentive, friendly, and professional. I thought it was quite interesting how much the waitresses and waiters helped each other. The ambience was most enjoyable with low lighting, candles, old brick and wood. I did give it 4 instead of 5 stars, for value as it is on the expensive site, but well worth it especially for special occasions.

- DDennisCentral Kentucky •1 review5.0Dined 6 days agoGreat food. It was hot. It was well timed. It was delicious. Short ribs and shrimp with pasta. Great selections. Food and wine. Attentive employees. Sincerely friendly. Is there anything you can do about the acoustics? Very difficult to converse without really yelling. If I owned the facility, I would seek professional help with sound dampening.More infoVolare Italian RestaurantPrice: Moderate• Italian• Frankfort Ave - Crescent Hill•4.8
- SSherriCincinnati / Dayton •2 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoWe absolutely loved this place! The atmosphere was charming, and our waiter, Parker, was not only sweet but also incredibly knowledgeable. We started with Old Fashioneds featuring Habanero Bitters—a creative and delightful twist on a classic cocktail. For appetizers, the Crawfish Bayou Dip was absolutely delicious. The seasonal salad was light, crisp, and the perfect prelude to our entrees. From the Bayou menu, we tried the Jambalaya and the Etouffée, both of which were bursting with flavor and exceeded our expectations. Everything was impeccable, and we can’t wait to return the next time we’re in Louisville!More infoLou Lou on MarketPrice: Moderate• Cajun• East Market St - NuLu•4.6
