Reviews for Jake and Elwood's in Louisville, KY
Great place to have great food! The deep dish pizza was truly Chicago style and delicious. The Chicago dogs were excellent,... layers of veggies. It was nice to be able to get a real Poutine in town. Loved having a selection of old style beers. It hasbeen a while since we have had a Hamms or Genesee Cream Ale and they were great! Hollis and her crew were very attentive and theatmosphere a good hint of Chicago. There is a very nice patio outback but temps were close to melting, so we dined in the coolinside. We just had one issue, the Cubs were playing but the only game on in the dining room was the Reds. Read more
I recently moved to Louisville from Chicago, and this is a piece of home. The owner is so friendly and the food is delicious.... It's just like being in a neighborhood bar back in Chicago. Every time I go I have to get the deep dish, Italian beef, and hotdogs - I can never just choose one, they are all so good! I wish I could go weekly but would not be good for my waistline:). ButI will definitely be frequenting during football season! ??????! Read more
This was one of the best places I have been to in a long time. I wish I would have found this gem earlier. I have only had the... Chicago style deep dish called The Disaster. Well worth the money. It was the best I have ever had. It was layers of toppingssauce cheese and love!!! If the food was all there was to talk about that would be enough but I have to give a shout out toSarah and Heather. Two beautiful and very nice women that helped us with every need we had. Everyone was friendly and helpfulbut I miss Sarah already lol. Do yourself a favor and try anything from Jake and Elwoods I don't think you will be disappointed. Read more
The restaurant was different that what I had in mind...you walk in, you order at the counter...I was expecting a... waiter/waitress....no big deal. The menu was big but not overwhelming. Of course I was there to try the AUTHENTIC Chicago StyleDeep Dish. $33 later, it arrived. It looked better than I expected it would. But how did it taste? I compare all Chicago deepgosh to Lou Malnati's...it's the peak! This was no Lou's but nothing is. So on its own, it was REALLY GOOD! Fresh sauce on topof loads of cheese and sausage. The crust was decent...I expected it served in a pan but it wasn't...so the edges on the crustwas different than I pictured. But yeah, it was very very good! I highly recommend if you wanna try Chicago deep dish and livenear Louisville....it's a close as you may get without driving the 6 hours north. ???????? Read more
Delicious Chicago deep dish pizza, everything about it was amazing: crust, cheese, toppings, sauce!!! We got the caramelized... crust. Get the large so you have leftovers--most pizzas aren't great reheated but this was just as good out of the microwave thenext day! Read more

But other then that I woulddefinitely recommend this place. Read more
Fantastic food! The Chicago style pizza was "out of this world" good, with sturdy, homemade crust that is apparently a family... recipe along with the top secret and perfectly balanced sauce! Premium and generous cheese Certainly the best all around Chicagostyle pizza around. The Italian beef was also very good and enough for two! Regular salad was a very good portion size. AND howcan you beat $2 Old Style all day long? Special shout out to Victor for his energy and welcoming demeanor as he keeps therestaurant clean! Read more
We ordered the pepperoni pizza and liked it. I have had many pizzas while visiting Chicago and this is very similar. Our pie... had just a little too much salt but still great. Read more
