I’m new to the area and I do not have my grill unpacked yet. I was running errands and saw a grill smoking and a U-turn later I was greeted by a great man named Mr. Lou! He went through the menu with me And shared all of the possible options for my dinner order. Everything sounds so good but I was honestly headed up the street for some fish. So I asked Mr. Lou to make me a whiting sandwich. The price is great , portions were generous, fresh and hot. I enjoyed my whiting sandwich. And he’s full of great advice and knowledge of his craft and the neighborhood. I’m looking forward to him offering delivery soon and weekend hours would be great but for now Monday through Friday about dinner time you’ll probably find me next to the grill.

This place is a hidden gem! Mr Lou’s customer service was above and beyond. When he saw us pull up, he walked out, greeted us and then even turned on the exterior lights so we could see the menu better, then he went through the menu with us (identifying which items he was out of, which I always appreciate because it makes my food decision making easier). The food was absolutely amazing!! The brisket was some of the best I’ve ever had! The collards greens were legendary and the cornbread was on point! The burger, sausage and bake beans were outstanding. Overall, one of the best meals I’ve had in the Ft Knox/ Louisville area! If you haven’t stopped in yet, put this place on your list as it is some truly fine Soul food dining!!

Me and my family ate from this restaurant, and the food was delicious! I had the brisket meal with greens & mac n cheese & cornbread. The brisket was tender and smoked to perfection. The greens had a soulful & savory taste. I definitely enjoyed my meal and I will be coming back for more. Support locally black-owned businesses

My husband and myself stopped to get gas and couldn’t help walking over to get some of the delicious smelling food. First time stopping here and so glad we did. He greeted us outside and went over the menu thoroughly. We both ordered a burger with a side. While we waited he offered us a chicken leg, I’ve ate lots of chicken but you could taste the smoke and the seasoning throughout the chicken itself. Very very good. The burgers, collard greens and my squash/zucchini were great as well. We even got Cornbread wasn’t expecting that. Cant wait to stop by and order some other items. I definitely want to try everything on his menu.You can tell he loves what he does. Thank you for the delishish food.

I really wanted to like the food, however you never smell the food or grill. It appears that the grill is smoking in the late afternoon, early evening but I am pretty sure he is warming or rewarming food on it. I’m pretty sure this place has no gas to actually cook on. It’s no way a grill that large with smoke has ZERO smell. I ordered chopped brisket which was not bad, the baked beans had to be cooked a week prior and the Mac n cheese was dry and no flavor and gritty from using cheap cheese. The service was the best part!

Food was amazing, brisket was juicy and the sauce was just right. The Mac n cheese was not too creamy and not even close to dry and the greens were some of the best I have had!
Mr. Lou was very pleasant to talk to and enjoyed our conversation while my food was being prepared. Price to portion was extremely reasonable.
My new favorite spot!!
