“ Because of my job I travel all over the US and even over seas sometimes. At the moment this place is definitely top 5. From the music and staff to the food and facilities, everything is great here. If you are in Louisville you have to try this place out at least once. ”
“ The food is good. Really good. The only issue is 2 out of 3 times I was there for lunch and SPECIFICALLY ordered the lunch fajitas, I was charged full dinner price. Ten bucks vs fifteen is a big difference, especially for lunch. Add tip into that and the apparent inability to resolve and I have chosen to go somewhere else. It's too expensive and it's exasperating. I understand there can be a language barrier, but after the first instance, I made sure to point specifically to the lunch section each time. It made no difference. I'm not going to argue, I'm just not going to deal with the hassle. ”
“ My wildest seafood experience, yet! Probably one of only a hand full of times I ever had my seafood below room temperature. I definitely was not used to it, nor was my stomache, but I did enjoy the cool South Western flavorful sauce mix. What I liked most was the deep fried shrimp with shells-on. I will be coming back to get those ONLY next time! They offer a pretty decent variety of seafood dishes, it varies so much that even the seafood came out sitting on top of a beer can. Now that's wild! ”
“ This is the best Mexican restaurant in Louisville so far Real Mexican food!! Whatever I ordered it was all good :) Highly recommend ”
“ I got the aguachiles mix and the large cantarito. The aguachiles were good, but they were absolutely too spicy! I'd had them before this time and I'm not sure what it was, but they were just too hot. I think next time, I'll just stick to ceviche. All their seafood is really good! The mojarra frita is also really good. The cantarito was very refreshing. Service was fast and friendly, I will say though. It was Friday night and they had a mariachi, so I would be wary of that if you want to actually sit down and talk over dinner. ”
“ We tried this restaurant a year ago and when we went back this weekend we couldn’t leave without eating there again. Their food is sooooo good. We had La Parrillada and was shared by 5 people. I had queso birria tacos omg sooo good. I highly recommend this restaurant. ”
“ The food was good but the music was really loud for me. I had to yell to talk and I couldn't hear my friend talking to me. But overall it was a good place for sea food. ”
“ This place was phenomenal! The atmosphere was welcoming! It was a full menu of delicious Mexican food. Pollo Feliz is so favorable! Veggies, so yummy and the chicken were packed with flavor! The service was on point. Don't take my word for it! Check it out for yourself. Did I mention live music? ”
