The cole slaw tasted old. It didn't taste fresh. The corn was not fresh. It was probably frozen not fresh. Who knows!
Steamed oysters! So yummy

Far and away the best traditional buffalo wings in the entire city. Great seafood as well. Love the ladies at the bar.

We visited here on a Sunday afternoon around 1. It was pretty crowded and had the games on. We waited a good 5-10 minutes before our waitress came around. She was nice it was not an issue. We ordered our food and drinks. I got a club sandwich and wife got chicken and rice. My daughters got chicken pasta and a kids chicken meal. It was all about 3 stars we came to the conclusion on the food. It looked better than it taasted but it was still pretty good overall. I would come back and try their chicken wings that they are known for. I would have given it a 4 but the taste for the price was just not there. I will try them again for the wings next time.

We stopped in for a 5 PM Sunday dinner and I tried the rolled oyster platter with a side of Cajun rice. The rice was almost creamy and had a pleasantly mild spice level. The rolled oysters were flavorful and plump with a fairly thick coating. Cocktail sauce was mild heat. Price point is very affordable. Our party of 5 had a choice of a regular table seating or a high top in the main restaurant. Our service was terrific and staff were friendly. Noise level was moderate. Restaurant has a neighborhood bar feel with many regular customers.

This is one of the best places in Louisville! Their wings are my favorite, I make sure to visit Rumors when I am in town. Reasonably priced, casual dining, and the food/service never disappoints.

Rumors food is still tasty, but not so much the atmosphere. Place in falling into disrepair: stained sagging ceiling tiles, filthy restrooms. Staff seems to be turning over a lot lately, which has increased productivity. Rumors is a place we end up eating at , not a place we want to eat.

Definitely a friendly place, lots of regulars. Service was fast and friendly as we sat at the bar and Max served us cocktails and appetizers. Both were very good and reasonably priced. Large menu including many seafood choices. Chicken wings are recommended and will definitely try those next time.

We love Rumors! I am 41 years old and have been going to Rumors for 42 years. Ha! So I will admit the memories do contribute to the ambiance for me, but for those that are looking for a new spot or haven't been in a while, it is clean, festive, lively - in a good way, not an overly rowdy way - and all around good natured fun. The food is great, I usually stick with chicken - the Diablo Chicken Linguine is great as is the Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo. The Wikiwaki Teriyaki is also great. ALL of the sandwiches are great. I myself don't eat seafood but my husband has enjoyed all of the entrees he has gotten as well. And the service is wonderful. Laid back yet extremely efficient, cheerful attitude for all who are working there. I love looking at the old photographs on the wall! I highly recommend Rumors for a casual lunch spot.

we ordered 50 wings and man, those wings were good. but they ran out of sweet tea while were eating so we didn't have something sweet to wash down the spicy wings with! no big deal tho, they got us sweet tea in the end. if your looking for a cute wing spot, sports bar type vibe, this place gets the job done i suppose. the server was very nice and quick and helpful, so that's also a plus. yeah.

Rumors is a longstanding local restaurant in Middletown and after a hiatus I suggested a visit for dinner with my family. Be forewarned that the crowd and parking lot stay busy, but add your name to the waiting list. It moves fast and they have a lot of tables.The servers and hostess were welcoming and so nice, recommending entrees as asked. You could tell they are used to managing the crowds of locals.We got a cold beer and onion rings - yum! For my dinner I chose the fried fish platter with coleslaw. Overall I enjoyed my meal; the coleslaw is peppery so I might try another side during the next visit. Other meals at the table included the burger (huge!) and the po boy sandwich. We didn't leave anything uneaten!

Tuesday late afternoon. Not very busy. Fish sandwich and Big Catch Platter. Tuesday Drink Special was Tito's Tonic, I wouldn't be surprised if they forgot poor old Tito, it was that weak. COD sandwich was cooked perfectly and was an adequate portion. Clams and Onion rings on platter were very much Over fried. To the point I couldn't pierce the clams with my fork. Disappointed, they sure could do better.
