Cured Restaurant

We had dinner here Saturday night for my birthday. It's got a great feel and vibe. Upscale but not snooty. The charcuterie board was amazing. Our group of six all had plenty with the option labeled for four. But it was an appetizer for us. The main course for me was a tomahawk steak. I had never had one but always wanted to try it. It's not an inexpensive choice by any means but it was a special occasion. It was the best steak that I have ever tasted!Service was excellent. The server was always there just when you needed her but never seemed to be hovering. Overall it was a great night out if on the spendy side.

The service was 5 ! We were given detailed explanations on all the meats and cheeses on the charcuterie board we chose and our server was extremely kind and helpful. She always made sure our wine and waters were refilled! The ambience is fantastic and the restaurant itself truly beautiful! The charcuterie board we chose was good but I would have appreciated some nice baguette with it or some more crackers. In total we received three crackers each. The meats were tasty and so was the cheese. I am looking forward to trying one of the entrees in the future.

We were so excited about trying out this beautiful space!! It did not live up to our expectations. 1. Nice list of handcrafted cocktails.2. Charcuterie board was nice, but was brought and left at the table without any explanation - we had to ask after we heard part of a description from the table beside us. 3. Asked the waiter what he recommended- and went with his #1 pick - pork osso bucco. Listen, I am a meat lover. I was up for a delicious protein. First day of summer menu. What came to the table was a beautiful shank of pork. However, the skin, instead of crispy was Impenetrable. We were served a large bone that we had to fight for meat, and a mound of dry mashed potatoes. No sauce, no veggies, no streak knife. I was so disappointed I didn't eat. I literally left hungry. I wanted to be helpful with kind feedback on something they just rolled out that day. Our feedback was met with an "ok."No, "can I bring you a dessert, can I bring you anything else, what can do so you don't leave hungry."There are very few places on this app that I I don't anticipate revisiting. Unfortunately, this will be one of them.

Really romantic atmosphere and very modern decor. The steak was delicious and so flavorful. I really enjoyed it. Great presentation too as they lit a rosemary branch on fire when it came out. The mashed potatoes on the other hand, were hard and dry and tasted like nothing. We should have sent them back because no one ate them after one taste. The oxtail presentation was pretty bad. I get that oxtail is a unique texture and can be hard to make pretty but it was thrown on a plate and looked incredibly unappetizing. The price point seems high as well considering the entrees don't come with any side dishes. Food quality, presentation, and value for money here need improvement. I think if I came back, I would just get drinks and appetizers.

Pork chop was incredibly tough - even to cut into. Flavor profiles were good with a smoked sauce underneath. Not a tender piece of meat in the least bit. Wife's carbonara was fantastic with homemade noodles. The Cured charcuterie board was also fantastic. Service and ambience were very good.

Delicious food and a cool atmosphere. In my opinion, Cured is already one of Louisville's best restaurants. I will admit, I didn't know what to expect before our Saturday night reservation at Cured. The website is actually somewhat misleading; it doesn't include all the food or bar options, and it left me wondering what type of restaurant Cured is trying to be. They seemed to brand themselves as part cured meats, part cocktail bar, part steakhouse, and part Spanish Tapas. Thankfully, now I can clarify: Cured delivers delicious meats and cocktails. That's the brand. While they offer other items, it's their meats, their cocktails, and their service that will keep you coming back. We started with cocktails. I had a delicious Manhattan. My friends were very happy with their old fashioned cocktails and margaritas. We ordered the Cured Charcuterie Platter for 4. It was large and included about 80% meat, 15% cheese, and 5% fruit & pickles. We thoroughly enjoyed all of it. The wine list is not high priced. But, the wines pair very well with the food on the menu. We had a bottle of the Sargon and everyone enjoyed it. We then shared a large and delicious Caprese Salad. The mozzarella cheese and the tomatoes were super fresh and tasty. We also shared the Cassuelette. It was a warm, thick white bean stew with pork, ham, chorizo, and chicken. One of the guests in our group called it his favorite dish of the night. We also split the 20 ounce Ribeye, which I would highly recommend. The steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare and had a nice char on the outside. It was really good. We tried the crème brûlée and the chocolate ganache cake for dessert (it was, after all, a birthday dinner). Both were very good. I recommend Cured for any special dinner you may have. I can't wait to go back.

I loved everything about this restaurant. It was out first time here and the staff was sooo friendly and explained everything very well. We tried the Beef Carpaccio, Steak Tartare and croquettes as appetizers. We didn't even have time to take pictures of the beef carpaccio haha but everything was beyond delicious. Congratulations to the chef! As entree we ordered filet mignon and pasta alla putanesca. Delicious!!

What a cool spot! I loved looking out the windows and seeing the ppl on the streets nearby! Everything we had was delicious! The ambience of this place was absolutely amazing tho!!

Throughly enjoyed my dinner here tonight! My husband and I had heard of it and had been wanting to try. The restaurant is on the smaller side so reservations are likely needed. My husband ordered their old-fashioned. He had first ordered their specialty old1fashioned and he was told they couldn't make it tonight(?). We ordered béchamel croquettes that were delicious. Crunchy on the outside, very soft and creamy on the inside with a hint of ham. We also orderedSomething in the appetizer list that they didn't have. Afterwards we enjoyed our entrees. I had the beef osso buco. So tender and delicious with very little fat. It has a nice gravy to pour over it along with some creamy polenta (rather on the plain side). My husband had the carbonara. This was different than others we'd had. Very rich. Very cheesy. The pasta was perfectly al dente. The cheese was sharp and the sauce plentiful, which almost led to the richness being "too much". He was not quite able to finish. We declined dessert to save the calories! All in all a great meal. Minus a star for not having two items available from the menu. I'm sure they'll get it back on our next visit!

This restaurant has some unique and delicious items. Although they were out of some, we had a scrumptious charcuterie m, the Bella. Sandwiches that no one wanted to share because they were too good. They seemed a little short on staff on a Friday night and the front door is tucked to a side so it's hard for the staff to notice a walking in guest. The decor was quite impressive from the furniture to the wallpaper. It seemed they guessed stayed a long while too.
