I know I hear of people who don't like Ramsi's or who have been told by others not to go there, but I have loved it every time I've been. Great atmosphere and service. Great menu options. The owner has been there a time or two and personally stopped at our table to check how our service and food were.... More

We went here for Sunday brunch. It is a neat little place with character. Has several vegan options. Omlet station and buffet. The buffet had breakfast, desert, and items from all around the world, so it was nice to try several different items that I am not sure I would have ordered off a menu. Everything I tried was good...

We love Ramsi's - it's a mainstay in our decade plus exploration of Louisville local options. We've had great service there, and were happy to see the dining room double in size. Tasty, clever food with many veg/vegan options. Worth a stop for the adventuring diner, if nothing else but for the eclectic menu and decor. Worth a revisit for... More

Usually when you ask the locals people tell you to try certain places. Maybe because they don't know what else to say. All I can say about this place is sick. Whoever says eat here because it is so amazing should get out more! Not clean, over priced, dirty, smells, and servers are rude! There are a lot more options... More

This is one of my favorite lunch spots in all of Louisville. There is so much variety on the menu there is something for every taste or desire. Portions are large so be ready to eat or take it home for a snack later. I wish I could say one dish was my favorite but I really can't. Don't miss... More

I have been a huge fan and patron for almost 18 years. My last few visits have been just okay, and that is not good enough for an area that offers so many superb venues. My mojito has been terrible the last two times, and the food just average. I hate to see this happen because I have had wonderful... More

When you see a menu with that many dishes across so many cultures, you know you can expect reheated items in minutes. And so it was....bland, reheated, deep fried barely edible creations. We went there only because we could nothing else open at 11 pm on a Saturday. We were told, when we asked, that the crap on our plate... More

My husband and I don't just go to Ramsi's every time we're in Louisville; we go every time we're in Southern Indiana or Kentucky. Period. You'd think for a place with so many things on the menu (and it literally has everything, from Mexican to Indian, from Italian to Mediterranean), they would only be able to do a few things... More
