I am fortunate enough to live in Louisville and I try and visit this restaurant at least 4 times a year. Let me just start off by saying if you have not been to this steakhouse, you are missing out. For starters, the restaurant is locally owned and operated. This is evident as the owner is usually at the front door to greet you on the way in and will usually be by to personally see you to make sure your meal is ok (if not too busy). I always go for the Fillet Mignon and my wife gets the Lady Fillet as we enjoy the personally hand cut meat. Yes, I did say hand cut which means you will not find a juicier and thicker steak in Louisville. The salads are good but what makes it great is the homeade Blue Cheese Dressing. The sides are usually served family style and my personal favorite is the Lima Beans or Steamed Cauliflower with cheese. This is not a la carte so the sides are whatever your heart desires. For dinner, I usually go for the locally trademarked Derby Pie with Ice Cream on the side. There are at least 8 other desserts to choose from.\r

A couple of years ago, a new outdoor addition was added. This is perfect place for those that need to light one up. What keeps me going back to Pat's besides the food is the workers and the ambience. I know what to expect every time I go in as the service doesn't change like most restaurants (especially chains). The same employees are there everytime I go and visit and most know me by name. The bartenders are great and pour the perfect mixed drink every time. The music is great as I feel like I am back in the 60's or in Vegas listening to the RatPack. And finally, if you are IRISH you have to check out all the memorbilia and the IRISH Crystal on display. Don't forget to call and make reservations. You will not be disappointed!
Pros: Food, Management, Music, Prices
Cons: Not open on Sunday
