Definitely one of those gems that are off the beaten path. It appears from the outside that someone started a diner in their basement. The food is upscale bar food. Burgers are really good and the grippo fries are amazing. Definitely recommend trying it. Foodies will love it

A friend told me of this restraint. He said it was very good and he was correct. My wife and son and I decided to try Hammerheads today. I ad the chirizo burger. My wife had the pulled pork sandwich, and my son had the brisket sandwich. The baked beans are homemade as are the is the potato salad. There... More

Crazy small place in the basement of a small house in a random neighborhood and hands down the best burger we've ever had. Pork belly and local cheddar to boot. Duck tacos to die for! Show up early! It's first come first serve ;) just go - you're welcome. ;)

We tried it recently after reading much good press and good words from friends. Its all they said. The food is delicious. Service is good. We tried various things to get a good feel of their food. All was good. We look forward to going back. My wife now judges all others' ribs by theirs.

This place is everything you've read on here about and MORE. The food is absolutely amazing and prepared just right. It is the way it should be done! Despite being a small place (and usually busy), the service was impressively good and personal. There is also a great, large beer selection. Whether you live in Louisville or are just visiting,...

We read the reviews and HAD to try this place. We wanted something different, highly rated on TA, but not pretentious nor "fancy." Hammerheads hit the spot! It sits in the middle of a residential neighborhood in essentially the walk-out basement of a house. You descend a few steps down to the entrance -- past a smiley-faced drain cover --... More

Burgers were excellent. But the pretzel roll( for an extra $1.00) made the better burger. The French fries (grippos) were quite tasty. Not a place for dieters.

Just like all the reviews said, not much of a building but GREAT sandwiches and service. The food was all served exceptionally hot on planks. They do not serve mixed drinks. We cured that problem by going up the street to Come Back In, which is an Italian restaurant that serves nice drinks. So while we waited for our table... More

The food was interesting, to say the least. If you are a picky eater or have kids I wouldn't recommend it. The portions were somewhat small compared to other places for the price. The brownie dessert tasted like it was right out of a box, which was very disappointing to me (I have a HUGE sweet tooth)! I will say... More
