Horsemen's Park

1st visit for High School reunion. Gigantic place with an open atmosphere. Excellent viewing angles of the hundreds of televisions for horse betting or just watching your favorite sports team. Service for food & drinks was very efficient. Food was hot, cooked just right(had the meatloaf special) and tasty. Recommend for any family or group gathering. Prices right in-line with the economy per the menu pic.

Wife and I went here for, hopefully, a quite bite. It wasn't to be. Sat for awhile til we got waited on. To be fair, only Stacie was on duty for the whole table section and bar. Many other servers were just passing by like it was a walk in the park. I finally had to wave menus asking if anyone was waiting on this table and got a terse remark from one that was just strolling by. Took our order and it arrived shortly. Was hot and good. I had quesadillas and wife had BLT. Both very good.Stacie DID find the time to come back and apologize for service and I ordered another W/sour. She came back with bill and we paid and left tip in short time. Now, I realize the staff shortage in many places. That doesn't excuse the passing by of staff members. Some could be grabbing a glass or plate off a table, saying I'll be right with you, etc.Wasn't so here. Stacie seemed to be alone in service. Our quick bite was not to be.

Had their 6.95 special of 6oz filet and fried shrimp last Saturday night. I have got to say that you will not find a better deal on a filet and shrimp that tastes this good. The shrimp were your basic frozen butterflied but still good and the filet was cooked perfect - also came with a baked potato and a dinner roll. I see they have a good variety of value priced lunch specials - can't wait to try some of them.

For years when my grandparents would come to visit, Grandpa would go to Aksarben to bet on the horse races. Now, he goes here. I had never been to Horseman's until I participated in a golf outing in which my team came in last... and won the fantastic last-place prize of a table and food here for the Kentucky Derby. If you're going to go one day of the year, that's definitely the day. But if you want a table, get there early! They even start giving away the reserved tables eventually, the place fills up so fast.This place is catered to betters, so make sure you take with you at least one person who knows what the difference between a racing form and a program is. Food, drinks, service - it's all what you'd expect from a place where they want to keep you happy to keep you gambling. My only qualm with the place was that when we were there (2008), there was still a 'smoking section' (which had absolutely no separation from the other areas). But with the new smoking law, theres no smoking indoors.

After many years of saying I would check out live horse racing here we finally did it. First, this place definitely offers some free child friendly activities such as a petting zoo, pony rides and face painting, but I recommend leaving the kiddos at home. With small children, the beer tents, crowd and great local bands, it becomes a bit difficult to navigate. My husband and I were saying we would have a great time just the two of us. On this weekend all reserved seating was sold out but we easily got a spot at the fence for front row observation of the racing which was awesome.Parking is a struggle for live horse racing. All lots were full so we ended up parking at a random business about 5 blocks away. Food was nothing to rave about, I think this place could really benefit from adding some local food trucks. Overall, we had a great time and will be back!

Went to live racing at Horseman's Park this weekend. What a fun and unique place! They always have simulcast horse racing, but a few days a year, they bring in live horses! They run every 30 minutes leaving you plenty of time to grab a drink and place a bet. There's makeshift bar areas all over the inside and out, and betting stations too. Grandstands are outside and a gazillion tables and TVs inside. Parking was great. There's a giant field behind the place where you park and air conditioned shuttles drive you to the door. When we left, the shuttle driver took is directly to our car! How often does that happen?We didn't try the food, but from what we saw, it looked great!Bottom line: Fun and different! Great set up. We'll be back!

My husband and I used to come here with friends usually on Fridays because they would have their Friday special which was prime rib with au ju, baked potato, corn, and a biskit for only around six bucks. With a pretty cool atmosphere they have a bar and tv everywhere to watch the horse races and bet on if you like.

Absolutely the WORST service I have ever had in my life. All the female bartenders ignored me and the gentleman next to me until I walked away. Then he and my boyfriend were miraculously seen!! On top of that, we ordered mint juleps...which somehow didn't have mint even though we saw a whole pitcher full of fresh mint leaves. I worked in service industry for 10 years, and this was the first time I didn't tip. If you want a drink here, I suggest bringing it yourself.

Food was a miss tonight.... Prime Rib shouldn't be too tough to chew!

Great fresh food, full bar and great daily specials! Super friendly staff. Great for groups or just hanging out with friends!
