Guidebook for Louisville
Food Scene
It's cozy and quiet and you've never had food like this. Authentically Mayan. The ceviche, the lima beans, any of the fish dishes, the rabbit! Great service and cocktails too. You need to make a reservation, even for lunch. It's pretty easy to get in, but it's so small that local folks always just make sure we make reservations.

AUTHENTIC BRICK FIRED PIZZA. You will not be disappointed. Also, this place is owned and operated by a pretty well-known musician. ;)

Drinks & Nightlife
It's a sultry little secret. Just go. I believe the door is unmarked but just go up the stairs that are on the outside of the building and when you exit the stairwell, walk straight ahead. That's the entrance.

Recently changed over to The Butchertown Social. I guess google hasn't caught up. This is my local bar. They have bites, great drinks, good daily deals, great vibes, a cool outdoor space and it's walking distance.

Arts & Culture
The Speed Art Museum
2035 S 3rd StGreat museum. Beautiful buidling. Sundays are free.
You can walk around the museum with a cocktail from the attached restaurant "Proof". Get the cocktail. Take the ride. Personally, I like the smoke rings the best. (1st floor, out the windows by the elevators)
