    Don't get a dessert (seriously, who does that these days anyway?), but from the desert menu, be sure to get a 'brew for the crew' on the way out!

    Spent three days in Louisville and this was, hands-down, the best meal of our entire trip. Amazing cocktails, great food, and stellar service. The menu is simple, but locally-sourced and well-crafted.

    Ever since Michael Trager-Kusman worked his way up to line cook at The Breslin and attracted Tyler Morris to Louisville, Rye has been an electric addition to the restaurant scene. [Eater 18 Member]

    The best drinks & oysters for happy hour! Just like being in cape cod for oysters! George our waiter was the best and very knowledgeable about the menu and drinks

    Menu changes frequently. All pairings (small plates, large plates, sides, desserts) are well thought out and unconventional, but my taste buds LOVED it. Great drink menu as well. Nice atmosphere.

    The menu changes daily so expect the unexpected. Entrees are formidable — and shareable — but you could make a fabulous communal meal from the small plates and sides. Read more

    I went there for Restaurant Week. Outstanding! Lobster bisque, pork, and apple bread pudding. Great old fashion.

    Request front room for a more intimate setting. Fresh, ever changing menu. Plates are nice and can be shared. Delish!

    They keep the PDF cocktail book on their shelf, and the bartenders know what they're doing. Dinner here is solid as well.

    Excellent environment, good service, don't waste your money on the Ryegarita though, not that great. Didn't eat so can't speak on the food yet. Will go back

    Great drinks, bad food. Get cocktails here then go eat somewhere else. The steak is exceptionally bad--covered in sauce.
