"So disappointed that we can’t get a decent pizza in Frankfort. Wellmaybe I shouldn’t go that far. The pizza is decent. But not consistently. One time when we dined in, it was excellent. Sometimes it’s better than other times. What it ALWAYS is, is expensive. It’s just not worth the roll of the dice. I have had a replacement pizza for the last one we got from the drive thru. It was almost $30.00 for the original pizza. No drinks, no sides, no extras of any kind. And like I said, we were provided a replacement. It definitely didn’t encourage us to continue ordering pizza we know we are going to pay top dollar for, but more often than not, regret the choice. Sparse toppings is a big problem. You definitely shouldn’t be able to see the crust through the toppings anywhere on the pizza. It shouldn’t be stressful to order a pizza. Pizza is one of the great joys of life. I don’t have it in me to call, complain and ask for it to be made right. I’ve done that. It’s unpleasant and time consuming. Maybe if I had an unlimited budget, I wouldn’t care so much about the hit or miss experience at Davinci’s. But like a lot of peopleI don’t"

"I have had the pleasure of eating at Gibby's on two different occasions the first time I had the Three Cheese Grilled cheese sandwich with chili both were out of this world. The second time I had the Kentucky Hot Brown one of the best HB I have had in a long time! Cannot wait to return and try something else."

"Fabulous place on the river. Nice menu but even better bourbon selection. They have many of the ones we all chase but seldom catch. A flight of 4 x 1/2 oz tastes were reasonably priced and really appreciated.Madison and everyone were so friendly and helpful. The weather was perfect even though we caught a few sprinkles before finishing the desert. We strongly recommend it. And try the unusual deep fried cheesy ? cauliflower. Mmmmm."

"We visited Thai Smile for lunch upon the recommendation of a Thai employee at another shop in Frankfort. The restaurant was hidden from street view in a strip mall that had a lot of empty shops. Yet, there were many patrons going into Thai Smile for lunch or to pick up takeout orders. The restaurant had a take out feel, even for sit down diners. There was a relatively small dining area with small tables and a large rectangular table along the entrance way with iced tea canisters, napkins, and cutlery. We were greeted quickly, and offered a table. Our server, a bundle of energy, took our drink order quickly. I ordered a Thai Iced Tea $3.95 . We ordered two entrees my husband 's go to in Thai restaurants, Pad Thai with Chicken $10 and Panang Curry with Chicken $10 . Seeing that the latter would be served only with peas and carrots, I also ordered a side dish of snow peas $2 . The waiter up sold us with an order of the best eggroll in Frankfort. $2.50 . You can choose the hotness level that you prefer, for your entrees, from 1 to 4 star. We ordered 2 star for both dishes. Our total bill came to $30.16, with tax but before tip. Interestingly, all appetizers on the menu are $2.50 and all entrees are $10.00. The food was delivered quickly and hot. All were served in plastic containers with lids that could also serve as take out containers. Overall, the food tasted good but was not exceptional. Our main comment is that the dishes lacked add ins especially vegetables . The Pad Thai was primarily noodles, with some chicken and a small number of fried tofu pieces and some peanut garnish. We don 't recall having seen any bean sprouts or egg, as advertised. The soupy Panang curry in coconut milk was served with peas and carrots, as advertised, plus the add on of snow peas that I had ordered extra. This was served with a bowl of white rice. The egg roll order was a single egg roll that was mainly filled with cabbage. I can 't say whether this is the best eggroll in Frankfort but it certainly wasn 't the best that we 've had . With respect to spiciness, 2 star has slightly more chili peppers than our preferences even for my Indian origin husband but it wasn 't too hot that we couldn 't eat it. We need to remind ourselves that one star is probably sufficient for future orders. We can always add more chilis but can 't take them away. This restaurant is a good value. We were only able to finish about half of our food while in the restaurant so we had take out meals to enjoy later. We added more vegetables! Also, our server was highly efficient. We note his friendly banter with the large group next to us. We would return to this restaurant if we were to return to Frankfort. Quantities."
