Editorial Review for Come Back Inn – by Mark Lee Woodford

The Scene
This cafe, in a traditional blue-collar neighborhood, looks like a dive from outside. The interior won't win any design awards either, except for the elaborately carved antique bar that dominates one end of the room. Servers are casual, recognizing most of their patrons, but they get the job done. Bring your sense of humor.

The Food
Think Chicago-style Italian pub grub. Antipasto wontons, stuffed with mozzarella, prosciutto and Italian herbs, tempt your taste buds for more. The sliced beef sandwich is a standout, with tender marinated meat piled high on a fresh hoagie bun. Al dente pasta and meatballs comes smothered in the house red sauce, which is so popular, people order extra with just about anything. Pizza is thin and crispy, with four different cheeses in the topping. Pair your meal with a glass of vino or a beer from Bluegrass Brewing, and you'll leave more than satisfied.

People can't seem to get enough of that red sauce, so Come Back Inn bottled it so you can take it home for a rainy day.

it is very small and comfy...and the food is a natural byproduct. It is so delicious the pasta melts in your mouth. I will never forget the first time I ate there almost four years ago. I was living in Ohio and came down to visit my boyfriend. I think the food at Come Back Inn was part of the reason I moved to Louisville!

Pros: Delicious

Cons: not a lot of parking, but it is worth the walk

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

This place is one of my all-time favorites. I lived in Louisville for years and always enjoyed coming here. This is a perfect example that excellent food doesn't have to cost a fortune. I have been to restaurants similar to Come Back Inn in Chicago and other places, and for the price and atmosphere Cime Back Inn cannot be beat.
