Usually we enjoy dinner there but the server seemed a bit scattered. We never received the bread he said he would bring with the salads, my husband ordered salmon and requested the broccoli be replaced with carrots. He brought the salmon with half of a dinner plate full of broccoli. We reminded him it was supposed to be carrots and he brought six very small baby carrots spread out on an appetizer plate. It was so sad you just sat there shaking your head. I had to ask for the mayo that I had I ordered with my burger. He did not ask me when ordering how I wanted my burger. It was more pink than I normally eat it but it was seasoned nicely. He never asked if I wanted another beer but brought water around regularly to fill our glasses. They were busy that night so I will chalk it up to that.

My spouse and I visited before a Sunday night show recently. This is one of the few restaurants open near the KCFA on a Sunday evening. Our show started at 6:30, our reservation was for 5pm, and we arrived 10mins early. We were greeted immediately and shown to a two-top booth in the bar area. Waters were served by a gentleman dressed in street clothes - guessing a manager, which was fine and impressed us that everyone was chipping in to help with the crowd. We waited for a bit for our waitress to greet us, and take our drink orders. She came back with a tray of drinks and said she would be right back to take our order. I watched her deliver her drinks and then take the orders of the tables behind us that had been seated after us. She made it to us, and we ordered. I ordered a side salad and the hot brown w/no tomato. My spouse ordered the steak sandwich with the skillet potatoes. Bread was brought and then we waited. And waited. We were right near the kitchen we could see trays of food coming out. All of the tables sat after us were served their food and multiple drink refills, while we continued to sit. In full transparency, our waitress was saddled with all of the bar tables. And I realize it was super busy - which was the main reason we made an early reservation and then arrived a bit earlier than that. My salad never showed, and our waitress never came back to check, and she was running between so many tables it was useless trying to get her attention. When our food finally showed, mine looked great and tasted as good. My spouses steak sandwich was served with packets of ketchup - which is surprising and disappointing with fine dining. Both of us would have appreciated drink refills but didn't come until the end of the meal. Our check arrived, with the salad included. When I mentioned it to the waitress, she said " I wish you would have told me", so it was my fault. She removed the salad and we settled the bill. Our $50+ simple meal took an hour and 20mins.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. While I’m glad you enjoyed the Hot Brown and appreciated the team effort from our staff, I’m truly sorry for the delays and missteps in service. It’s disappointing to hear that your meal took longer than expected, and that your salad never arrived. We strive to provide attentive service, even on our busiest nights, and we clearly fell short here. I appreciate your patience and understanding, and I’ll be addressing this with our team to ensure better communication and efficiency moving forward. We value your feedback and hope you’ll give us another opportunity to provide the level of service you deserve.

Arrived on Feb. 21 at 5 pm with a reservation. Told the lady receptionist I needed a table for 4 instead of three and explained why. She told me “ If we do not have the room then we do not have the room”. She was rude but she did seat us at a table with four chairs. Even though the app would not let me modify the number of quests I did leave a note stating I needed a table for 4. I have been coming to this restaurant for over 30 years and this was my first encounter with any rude staff. The food and service was good,

It is always a pleasure to dine at the Bristol downtown. M, the host, called me my name and welcomed me. My table was ready upon my arrival. The food was good, service well done, even on a busy night. Even though I didn't order drinks from the bar, Colin, saw me and left the bar to come to my table to visit for a minute. Always nice to feel valued as a customer and friend, by M and by Colin. I wasn't able to try the onion rings that was to be served with a burger special, but I hope they will be available on the menu soon as an appetizer or side option.

To be fair, it was a Kentucky Center for the Arts play night, so the rest. is swamped with diners. I can only imagine how difficult that makes it when you are swarmed with diners in an approximately 2 hours time frame. You can't beat the location and of course, the green chili wontons - which were hot, crispy and delish. Very nice people, super helpful and enjoyable to speak with about reservations. It went down hill after the won tons. I ordered a fried chicken cobb and my chicken had a human hair embedded in the coating and was clearly fried with the chicken then put on my salad. I quietly removed the chicken from the salad and called the attention to our waiter, who just took the plate and sent a new order of chicken to me - yuuuuck - I neither ate the chicken nor the salad but paid my bill when it came for the salad. On another order, my friend ordered Thai Chicken Stir Fry - waiter served three of us, showed the 4th the plate and said it was missing mushrooms, he would have them redo to include mushrooms - someone else brought the exact same thing back, still missing mushrooms, taking it back again - meanwhile, three of the 4 diners were eating (well, not me bc of the hair) - way too long later they brought the stir fry back with a few mushrooms and my friend ate while we chatted and watched. Nothing was really quite right after the won tons ... Spinach Chicken salad which is usually a big hit was literally covered in garlic - not a little, but an entire bowl of garlic. After my chicken, other fried chicken cobb lost her appetite. The food at this location is hit or miss, when its good its good, but when its bad - its just awful. Waiter was nice enough, clearly overworked - he nor the rest. handled the hair issue the best. And, not the rest. fault but the sewer smell near the back of the rest. and in the restroom was awful - but with River Road flooded and the water table up, nothing the rest. did to cause it nor could prob. do about it.
