      Great food, service, and ambiance!! Nachos, wild boar, and kangaroo are a must! Oh and the roasted bone marrow! Don't forget that!

      I've been eating at Game for years. This is the first time that I was extremely disappointed. I ordered wagyu meatballs and two of them were raw. They were completely raw and I ate some. Made me sick.
      Didn't think I needed to check my food. Our server was sweet but she didn't really know what to do. She asked me did I want her to take it away. Of course, it's raw meat. I still paid for my meal after eating raw meat.

      Simply taking $6 off the receipt does not suffice for eating raw food. I asked for a manager and no one came..

      We left disappointed. To sum it up, this place is a weird, overpriced burger joint.

      Please note, parking is parallel parking and very limited. Seating is also limited and we froze during our visit, despite sitting in the main area.

      Our server was nice and attentive. We ordered the nacho appetizer, chefs meat choice was venison and chorizo. We received our appetizer quickly. The pico de gallo tasted very fresh, but the meat was not very good.

      You can order a variety of game in the form of meatballs or burgers. We ordered the yak burger and kangaroo burger. They had a special of swai fish sandwich so we ordered it. Despite the prices being so high, you're paying around $20 just for the sandwich. If you want a side, you have to pay extra.

      The swai wasn't very "meaty" and wasn't very flavorful. The burgers were cooked well, but I wonder how much of the ground meat was actual wild game or if it has some beef filler to make the meat go further.

      The menu says all game is sourced from local farms but most swai is imported from Vietnam and I'm not sure where they're slaughtering kangaroos from in Louisville.

      Also, our food was served on wooden boards. While that may appear neat, I couldn't help but wonder how clean it actually was since wood is so porous and these had clearly been used quite a bit given all the blemishes and cuts in them.

      All in all, I'm happy to check this restaurant off my collection board but do not recommend and will not return.

      I am not an adventurous person but this as a great burger spot! The waitress was so helpful and had an amazing recommendations.
      My husband loves the kangaroo and it was cooked perfectly. I tried the Bison and it was so good, so is the Elk.
      I great spot in Louisville! I will be back.

      If you like trying exotic meats then this is the place!
      Their frog legs were juicy and meaty!
      We tried different kinds of meatballs like yak and antelope and they were all sooo tasty
      The service was good! And the restaurant is just minutes away from downtown!
      They have different types of food and regular food if you're not into exotic meats

      Easy access off of Lexington Road near the intersection with Grinstead Drive from I-64. I wish the parking lot was bigger or better configured to accommodate driving around the lot since it can be cramped and reach a bottleneck at times.
      I popped in here for dinner and scanned a QR code taped to the tabletop to look at the drink menu. I settled on the Country Boy apple pie cider $7 which was light and only slightly sweet. I went with the venison sandwich, prepared medium, from the Chef's Recommendations portion of the menu and a side of sweet potato fries.
      The food came to the table fairly quickly, served on a rustic wooden board, and looked appealing. The sandwich was dressed with tomato and greens, as well as blue cheese crumbles as a topping and an aioli sauce on a delicious pretzel bun. The burger was juicy and had a great flavor. It had no gamey taste or smell whatsoever. The fries were cooked perfectly with fluffy interior and crispy well seasoned exterior.
      My server was fantastic and the food was delicious. I would love to return to sample kangaroo, alligator, and elk.

      Stumbled upon this place while searching for lunch. Once I saw grilled romaine salad on the menu I knew this was it! Then I got to build your own burger and it was a done deal. I decided to build my own burger because I know what I want. I chose the yak medium well with American cheese, bone marrow aioli, pickles, tomato, raw onion , and mixed greens on an onion bun. Then I chose French fries and had them fried in duck fat.

      The Caesar salad had just the right char on it. I wish they would have served it on a different vessel as it was a little difficult to eat. The burger came and it smelled so good. It was juicy and the aioli was flavorful. I thoroughly enjoyed the burger. Fried had a great flavor and just enough salt. 10/10 would visit again.

      Wow! What a cool experience! We met friends for dinner at Game, and really enjoyed the food and experience! Great prices for the food too.

      Individual reviews:
      The meet takes the cake: the meatballs, sliders, and burger were DELICIOUS. The table loved the bone marrow, though that wasn't my thing. I will say, I wasn't impressed with either salad. I had the seasonal salad and my partner had the grilled ceasar. The dressings weren't great and they were too dressed IMO. We also ordered dessert, and WOW! SO good.

      Smaller dining area, friendly staff, larger menu than I was expecting for a restaurant that will grill you a kangaroo burger... I stuck with angus beef bacon cheese burger with fries in duck fat and it was superb! Highly recommend this place for the burgers. Absolutely will be going back regularly.

      Love this place! Each burger is very unique and seasoned to fit the style of where the meat came from. I have been here several times and have had the wagu, elk, and recently the yak burger. They were all so different and so good! Highly recommend if you want to try something new and different
