This place is really cute. We enjoyed lunch and the panini was warm and delicious. Nice touch with the Greek salad and balsamic was sweet without too much tartness. The service was friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back.

I was excited to try Caffe Clasico, but my experience was mixed. We had no problem getting a table. When we got there for lunch, there were only two other tables occupied. The service was average. We ordered the full-size Caesar salad ($14) with chicken added ($5). The Caesar salad itself only filling half of the salad bowl. I forgot to take a picture, but it just looked really pitiful! On the other end, there was a nice portion of grilled chicken but there were a few red spots in the chicken, which was not very appetizing. The kitchen should not have let that come out to the table. I had a guest with me so I did not say anything as I was inviting her for lunch, but it was disappointing. I left those pieces on the side of my plate. When I asked for the check, I tried to pay cash, but I was told that they did not have any change (which would have been about $35). Not a big deal but the way our server told me was just very condescending. I understand most people pay by card, but you could say it a little bit more politely. Granted he is a college age young man so may not have had a lot of experience in the food service industry which showed with a few interactions we had with him. Overall, I will not return. There are many other options to get a great Caesar salad (and a better value on your meal) in Louisville!

Food was dry and mediocre. The manager was aloof and acted like she as too busy to help us. They don't have a hostess and seating is confusing. The single waitress was young with a nice smile, but obviously untrained. I watched as drinks and deserts were sent to the wrong tables while we had to flag down someone to wait on us and later had to ask for silverware. Our drinks came late and the food was not worth the even longer wait. At least the brownie was delicious.

The service was impeccable, the girl who served us was very polite and helpful. We ordered the choripán, which was not what I expected. Also instead of putting French fries they put chips, which didn’t seem to match the menu or price. The pizza was phenomenal, a total delight! The salmon was very tasty, however, it was served with only two pieces of asparagus, and half a cherry tomato! I'll likely come back because there are still many dishes I want to try! But for the price you’d think they would give you more food/balance the entrees with the sides.

I have mixed feelings.. first I love a soda fountain drink.. they don’t have those but they do have Mexican cokes which are almost as good. Our table ordered the fries.. as an appetizer and they were some of the beat I have ever had. They come with 3 dips which my friends enjoyed. I had a delicious panini!
There was a group of 5 of us and mostly everyone enjoyed their dish but one friend ordered a soup. She was anxious for me to try it as I was not familiar to that soup.. it looked very good. Well it was cold and it wasn’t supposed to be cold. So she reluctantly asked if the server could heat it up which the server was happy to do. She got it back and it was still cold. So rather than ask again she just took it to go. I would come again. And I believe my friends will too.
