Had an absolutely gorgeous happy hour evening here! Me and two of my girlfriends grabbed a table in the bar area for happy hour (4:30-6:30) and decided to split a few bites and have a couple drinks. We ordered the seafood nachos, two rounds of the gnocchi tots because they were so good, and the warmed burrata. Treyvon (spelling?) and Sam took care of us and the service was really the star of the show here. We ordered cocktails off the menu to start (happy hour features 2 off signature cocktails) and they were delicious, complex, and well-balanced. Sam came over to inquire about our next round saying we could "get a little crafty." We had a lot of fun telling him the flavors and vibes we were going for and having him come up with cocktails for us. We ended up with drinks like a gin rosewater martini (!!!!) and a mezcal cosmopolitan. When he delivered the drinks, he was so sure that he wanted us to love them and made us be super honest to ensure that we truly loved what we were drinking. The views and overall atmosphere of the restaurant were beautiful, and would be a great dinner date night spot, but it was also incredibly fun to sit in the bar area with friends and enjoy the interactive experience. We left feeling like we couldn't have gone to a better place for a better experience. The food was good, but the service and craftsmanship from Treyvon and Sam really drove it home!

We had the pleasure of dining at Swizzle, the crown jewel of the Galt House Hotel, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped into the elegantly designed restaurant, we were treated to exceptional service and unparalleled views of the Louisville skyline. Our server Dave, was extremely professional, friendly and knowledgeable, guided us through the extensive menu and the wine list. Each dish was expertly prepared and presented. The guests at our party had salmon, fillet mignon steak, wild mushrooms and lobster bisque soup. Everything was delicious beyond expectations. But what truly sets Swizzle apart is its stunning ambiance. The floor-to-ceiling windows offer breathtaking views of the Ohio River and the city, making it the perfect spot to celebrate special occasions or simply enjoy a romantic evening out. While the prices may be steep, Swizzle is worth every penny. If you're looking for a luxurious dining experience that will leave you feeling like royalty, look no further than Swizzle.

My first visit to Swizzle was a wonderful experience. Thanks to our reservations, we were seated right away. We chose this spot to celebrate my granddaughter's graduation, and the atmosphere perfectly matched the joyous occasion. The food was absolutely delicious, and our waitress provided exceptional service-warm, attentive, and kind. It was a memorable evening, and I would definitely return!

We had an incredible dining experience at Swizzle Dinner & Drinks! The view was spectacular. The Tomahawk pork was perfectly cooked and full of flavor — definitely a standout dish. The truffle shoestring fries were addictively good, and the crispy broccolini added the perfect touch of freshness and crunch to the meal. Everything was seasoned beautifully and served with great attention to detail. Our server, Peter, was fantastic — friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. He really made the experience even better. Highly recommend Swizzle for anyone looking for a delicious meal with great service in Louisville!

The atmosphere at the restaurant was very welcoming. Unfortunately due to parking and traffic I arrived late. However, the staff welcomed us still and allowed us to keep our reservation. We were then hosted by Lexi. She is truly a down to earth and genuine waiter. 10/10 recommend this restaurant and Lexi. Thank you. Will come everyday if I could!

Wedge salad , warm burrata, salmon , bourbon flight and wine choices were nothing short of amazing. Best part of this place is the view with a revolving portion given you different overlook sections. Highly recommend reservations

We traveled from out of state specifically to dine at Swizzle for our anniversary, and it was absolutely worth it! The online reservation process was smooth, and we were thrilled to be accommodated in the coveted Wheel Room. The Galt House's location is convenient, and the elevator ride up to the 25th floor added to the anticipation. The hostess staff was welcoming and efficient, quickly seating us in the Wheel Room. The ambiance was simply breathtaking. The elegant decor, soft lighting, and panoramic views of the river created a truly magical atmosphere. Our server was incredibly attentive and friendly, ensuring that every detail of our dining experience was perfect. They were also very helpful in accommodating my dietary restrictions. We started with a delicious appetizer and followed it up with equally impressive entrees. I opted for the chicken, while my partner enjoyed the sea bass. Both dishes were expertly prepared and full of flavor. The drinks were well-crafted, and the dessert was truly exceptional. They even went the extra mile to create a dairy-free dessert for me, which was a rare treat. To top off our evening, we purchased an exclusive bottle of bourbon as a souvenir of our unforgettable dinner. Swizzle is a truly unique dining experience that we'll never forget. We plan to return in the future to enjoy this special place again. If you're looking for a memorable and luxurious dining experience, Swizzle is highly recommended.

We had dinner here to celebrate my Masters graduation. We wanted something unique to Louisville and Swizzle did not disappoint. We started with the small cold seafood platter including raw oysters, shrimp cocktail, ceviche, and tuna poke. All of it was perfect. I had scallops for my main entre and my husband had the strip. Everything was cooked perfect and had so much flavor. We had the mac and cheese and duck fat potatoes as sides. Both were wonderful, but the mac and cheese was over the top amazing. We finished with chocolate cake and banana cheesecake. Both were lovely and the cheesecake was our favorite. My husband had the bourbon flight, I had a golden gimlet, and we shared a bottle of red. All were very enjoyable and complimented our meal perfectly. We sat in the spinning dining area and it was a fun and unique experience! Our server was knowledgeable and attentive. Service was great and we enjoyed every aspect of the experience. Highly recommend if you're in the area!
