211 Clover Lane - European restaurant in Louisville - 211 Clover Ln STE C, USA

Went here for a special occasion with family and the experience was not great like it had been when we visited years ago. Servers were kind, but not quick to check on us. Our main server didn’t really know much about the menu or alcohol offered. We asked questions about appetizers on the menu and it felt like the server didn’t know what to say other than the ingredient list. Sometimes it’s just good to hear what is popular or maybe if the staff has some favorites. Good conversations with a server can make a dining experience feel more genuine and that the staff believes the food is actually good. It just felt like there was a disconnect between the restaurant’s fine dining image and the actual food/dining experience. Our reservation time to leaving the restaurant was over a period of 2 hours and we didn’t get dessert. They put our family of 9 around a small circular table and the chairs were super close together. It felt like we didn’t have much room to move and the chairs are unbelievably uncomfortable. The temperature in the restaurant was perfect though so that was good. The food we received was not worth the money spent. The olives and almonds appetizer was really uninteresting other than the almonds having a pretty good flavor to them. The olives just tasted like olives in brine that I’ve had many times over. I don’t know if I was expecting too much from olives and almonds, but it was just kind of boring for the price. It was $58 for a filet mignon. All three that we ordered showed up over cooked and hard to cut through. We didn’t want to send back the three overdone steaks because it had taken over an hour to get our entrees and we all wanted to keep dinner moving. Many people got asparagus with their entrees and out of the ~3 asparagus stalks they received on each of their plates, 1/3 were fibrous and unable to be eaten. We wouldn’t have minded staying for the two hours if it was comfortable to sit there and the food was good. I think this place needs a major review of their staff and chef(s). The prices just need to go down if they don’t figure this out.

Super cute place. Very nice staff. My burger was wayyyyy undercooked. They corrected it. Our food was also on the the cold side. I think they were short staffed that day. I did enjoy a take out pork chop a month later. It was very good.

I came here on a date and we decided to sit on the patio. It was a bad first impression when we walked outside and had to awkwardly stand around while they tried to find another chair so we could both sit down. Once we sat I noticed my silverware and cup were dirty. We were given water within a few minutes, but waited about 15 more minutes for our waiter to come take a drink order. It started to rain a bit, obviously not blaming the restaurant for this, but the staff showed no interest in helping people feel comfortable. We sat in the rain while I saw an older woman at another table with her friends trying to drag an outdoor umbrella to their table while the staff walked around. We grabbed our drinks and went inside where we awkwardly stood for about 5 minutes to be acknowledged and reseated. The whole experience was uncomfortable and the staff was unprofessional. For such an expensive restaurant I wouldn’t expect the staff to be wearing tennis skirts and dirty shoes. After ordering a bottle of wine priced at over twice its actual value and two appetizers my date felt uncomfortable and didn’t want to get entrees so we went to another restaurant. Service was so slow that someone had to walk inside to the bar from the patio to order more wine. The waiter brought our bill and took payment without saying a word to either of us or saying anything as we walked out the door. It appeared everyone in the restaurant was getting equally apathetic service, but at least the appetizers tasted good.

We enjoyed our 20th wedding anniversary here - our friends have been raving about the food, atmosphere and staff (thank you Jesse!) Reservations were super easy. We had the shrimp appetizer and also the beef carpaccio which was something new to us - highly recommended if you are a red meat eater. We had filet entree and also the scallops and it was melt in your mouth delicious. The atmosphere is quaint but romantic and felt very upscale which is totally our speed. We finished with raspberry ganche and it was heavenly 😋 We'll definitely be celebrating more life milestones here! Can't wait to visit in summer and sit outside. 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! I wish I had taken more pictures but we were in the moment if that tells you anything about the overall dining experience. Bravo!

This place was a wonderful venue to host our 7 sisters reunion. First time since 2020. The food was excellent. Our server, Jackson, was kind, attentive, and engaging to our group. The private room was an especially wonderful surprise! All other staff were friendly and kind as well.

Was visiting from out of town and had a great experience. Wait staff was friendly and attentive, the food was wonderful, and overall a great atmosphere. Would definitely come back again.

Hidden gem So glad we found the 211 Clover Lane restaurant. Great food appetizer, entree and desert were all very good. Sam our server was excellent!

We went for an early dinner and had a very nice dinner . The restaurant is a unique space with very beautiful flowers and plants everywhere. The new patio is lovely and inviting. Our server was very much attentive and knowledgeable of the menu items and made solid recommendations to us . Our entrees of halibut and scallops were super pleasing to our palettes . No complaints from us , we will go back and would def recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful ambiance in a busy part of town .
