    Good bye Matt Winn's ... Sad to see this beautiful space being closed by Churchill Downs. It truly had the potential to be a show stopper but poor backing from the corporation set it up for failure from the beginning. However the service was 5 star as always as was the food and cocktails.

    We loved Matt Winn’s prior to this visit. Upon arriving for our reservation we discovered the restaurant was closing. We have had wonderful experiences in the past and the service was equal to past experiences but the food tonight was not up to the past experiences. I would have made different decisions if I had known the closing was eminent. The service staff was excellent.

    Outstanding food but service was very slow. I did not expect to be there 3 hours. They were informed that we’re celebrating my wife’s birthday, but nothing special, maybe a candle on desert in future?

    Great ambience. The young lady who greats fills at the entrance with her cart was a real gem! The rest not so much. Food was ok. Wait staff couldn't have been less engaged. For a pricey dinner it would be nice to someone at least ask how things are tasting. Was in town for work so probably won't be going back but if I lived in town I definitely wouldn't with all the other great steakhouse options.

    Matt Winn’s trifecta - delicious food, attentive service and memorable ambiance. It’s hard to find anything better in Louisville, especially if you are hosting guests from out of town.

    Danielle was wonderful! We took friends who had never been before and they fell in love- the chef created a special vegetarian dish for one of our friends- the other fell in love with the million dollar bacon- will definitely return again!!

    Steaks were over cooked twice. Brussel sprouts were over done. Nothing jumped out and said I want to come here again. It was normal.
