I have been to The Manhattan Project several times for a variety of things over the years from Trivia back in the day, Suprise Parties, High School Reunions, Birthdays, Football Games, and just to sit at the bar. They really are a one-stop shop for all your needs. Most recently we were in on Sunday for the Eagles vs Packers Playoff Game. If you are not aware TMP is the "official" Eagles hangout for so many in Louisville. They have Game Day Specials for every Eagles game including $1.25 Wings (qty of 6), $5 touchdown shots, $6 winged eagles and $5.25 Yuengling. They also have a DJ at every watch party spinning music during pregame, commercials, halftime as well as the end of the game. When we first arrived, we sat at the front bar since we were way past start time and knew it would be hectic in the back. The bartender greeted us almost immediately and got us drinks. After looking over the menu for a few minutes I noticed the peanut butter & jelly wings which intrigued me, so I asked how they were, and she said they were amazing so I had to give them a try (let me note that I am a traditional wing girly, and always go for the buffalo - the hotter the better) I was even able to order all drums which was a plus! We also ordered the Parmesan Truffle Fries which are tossed in truffle oil and parmesan, drizzled with garlic sauce. The food came out fairly quicky and piping hot. Let me just say the wings were so damn good, I was taken by surprise. We paired them with the homemade ranch which probably sounds weird to some, but I promise this flavor combination is where it's at. The Parm fries were good, but the wings were fire. I want some right now actually LOL Once we finished eating, we cashed out and headed to the back to join the party and mingle with some people we knew would be there. The watch party was lit, and so much fun. I highly recommend trying out TMP for any of your needs. Their website lists information about booking the back area for Private Events - The main event space which holds 100+ while seating for 60-70, and an enclosed patio area which holds 50 people, seating 35. There is no room charge but there is a minimum spend which we all know is easy to hit when hosting a large group.

Celebrated my mom's 60th surprise party here and they couldn't have made it easier! Their staff did most of the work and always answered when I needed them for planning matters. The vibe of the back room is perfect. Bartenders during the event were fun and attentive. Would 100% recommend. Can't wait to come back just for a regular visit.

Amazing! Prices are fair for what you get, and the food was great! My picky one year old even liked his food! Service was fast and accommodating, and the ambience is absolutely gorgeous! They also have a large selection of beers on draft and cocktails which are always a plus!

Cool off the beaten path bar with great service (Blake)...excellent drink and tasty food. Parking is limited in the lot but there is street parking. I am very much a fan of the Jalapeno Artichoke dip A+. Looks small from outside but actually has two bar/dining areas...the back must be for the rowdy sports fans with multiple TVs. Great place to hang n catch a few games.

Went here on a Saturday evening with a couple of friends. We ordered some appetizers the pretzels and the cheese curds in both were amazing five out of five the atmosphere was very classy yet bar food at the same time if that makes sense so I'm gonna give it a five out of five also service was excellent. She was very friendly five out of five on that food came out and, I got a Reuben and it was excellent. I enjoyed it tremendously and we will go back for sure.

While visiting here I tried a variety of items. My favorite was the Cajun Risotto and the watermelon margarita. The fish tacos were okay, but nothing was special about them. The oreo bread pudding was not my favorite and had a distinct taste to it that I did not prefer. My server was EXCELLENT and the restaurant was very nice and clean.

Six of us came for football and drinks. We had a few rounds and decided on appetizers. We stayed a little longer and decided to have dinner. Service throughout was great. We never felt rushed. Our server came around often to get orders for drinks etc. They had a large pitcher of water on the table so we could help ourselves. We never ran out. They were able to customize cocktails as we requested. The holiday cocktail menu looked great- many of them had coffee of caffeine in them though. We made the mistake of ordering one late at night and had difficulty sleeping!!! But if you're not caffeine sensitive at night, the peppermint mocha was very tasty. They kinda nickel and dime ya for everything. Example- the sauces for the wings- we asked for three or four sauces for the wings and they charged us $0.50 each. Kinda lame. Otherwise, no complaints. We shared the burger- double patty add egg. Was good but needed a sauce. I know it comes with a sauce but either that sauce was not on it or it was severely lacking in presence. The fries are good. We also shared a salad and added chicken. The chicken was a bit overcooked, being kinda stringy and tough. The salad itself was delicious but the pecans were a bit out of place on the wedge, in my opinion. Parking is limited- there are a few spots in their parking lot, otherwise on the street. Bathrooms are clean. Separate bathrooms for men and women. The place got fairly packed at the night went on but I don't think you need a reservation.
