Great food and atmosphere!! The service was great and very friendly. We had a conference here for about 80 guest. They served the food fast and everyone was eating in minutes. The food aside, the owners are some of the most loving, genuine people I've ever had the privilege to work with!

the restaurant atmosphere is very dated, it doesn't seem that anyone has put any effort into it for a while. The food was okay enough, but we waited over forty minutes just to get it- too long for food that doesn't meet expectations

Had our first day of vacation dinner there. It was delicious! Staff was friendly & helpful. One of us is a vegetarian & the waittress took care of us with a delicious veggie angel hair pasta! Not on the menu but they put just as much care in it as any menu item. I had the schnitzel a naturale - great sauce & didnt miss the breading at all. The only caviat was they had a beautiful bourbon bar but no bartender or list of bourbons. We were there on a Wednesday so we're guessing they probably do have it manned on the weekends. Will definity go back!

Compelling story of the owner and great selection bourbon. Bourbon prices are high so be prepared for that. It is on the trail so i get the reason for wanting to keep the prices high. I thought the food was ok but nothing to write home about. I will say the bar tender (blanking on his name) was really awesome, showcased his knowledge of bourbon and made the overall experience pretty solid. I would probably try more places before going back here but since I heard Circa closed this may be the only option.

As will all places in the area, Kreso's has a great bourbon selection. The goulash was just okay (although, my friend had another dish and enjoyed it), and the service was spotty - the family that owns the place provides more attention and knowledge than the rest of the staff. It was a big surprise to learn that the place is a former theatre. Ask to see the back, which is actually the old theatre itself (the restaurant portion is what used to be the lobby). Soccer fans will be interested to know that the owner was once a professional soccer player in his home country of Bosnia - there is a picture of his team hanging behind the bar.

Enjoyed dinner here on a Tuesday evening while in town (bourbon trail). Although most retailers were closed because of the ice/snow storm, my hubby and I bellied-up to the bar at Kreso's for some great bourbon and schnitzel. The bartender, Jason, is a smart, unassuming gentleman who knows a lot about bourbon. He took us each down a journey of spirits matching our individual tastes. He also helped us pick-out solid menu options: stuffed portobello mushroom, Kreso's schnitzel (all schnitzels made from pork tenderloin), a house salad, and homemade baklava (best I've had, and the chocolate syrup smiley-face certainly pushed me over the edge). Upscale atmosphere, with a masculine bar (dark wood, large mirror, ~186 bourbons), offset by large art collection. Jason told us the restaurant was once the town's cinema, and gave us a quick tour of the old screening room-turned-function-hall. Really cool space, and I'd like to visit during spring/summer when I envision an energized, friendly crowd also enjoying dinner/events there. We stopped-by on Wednesday evening before dinner to enjoy more bourbon and small talk with Jason, who directed us to a few more local watering holes. Thanks for your hospitality!

The food was not bad! Both the wife and I enjoyed the Schnitzel (she the Wiener and I the Jagger) and we shared a Shrimp Coctail appetizer. The service was somewhat troubling. We walked in at approximately 6pm on a Friday and caused some confussion as to where to seat us (place did not appear to be busy). Once seated my wifes water glass had lipstick on the glass...when my wife asked if the table had been reset she was assured it had been. Our table (a two seater) also was mechanically loose at the bottom and requred a balancing act between the wife and I to keep glasses from sloshing over when the balance would shift. We should have asked for another table, but based on the trouble we had on arrival thought it better to just work thru the meal and keep the table balanced as best we could. The two star rating would probably be a 3 or 4 if not for the service and wobbling table issues....food was tasty. We wil probably try Kreso's again.

First, I want to say that I am rating this after only 1 visit. I try to avoid that unless a place is obviously awesome or obviously horrible, but while I visit Bardstown often, I don't usually dine out while there so it might be awhile before a return visit to Kreso's Also, this is to some degree being scaled in comparison to other available dining choices in town. Weekday lunch, party of 9. 1 hour time frame due to work commitments. Some people doubted the restaurant could get us in and out in time, but I figured they would or at least it was a decent gamble. We were the only customers when we arrived just before noon. Nice decor, clean and classy with comfortable chairs and old world art on the walls. The tables were set with cloth napkins and water goblets, putting it a step above the average fast casual chain type place. Food-- good, reasonably priced, fresh. Club sandwich wasn't overdone with mayo, the tomato was crisp, the turkey tasty. Others enjoyed their Kreso burgers (burger meets Rueben basically) and the chicken sandwiches. No one ordered any of the specialties so I cannot speak for that portion of the menu. Service was friendly and yes, we did get in and out within the hour. I'd return and if it was dinner, I'd check out that extensive bar selection too.

Had lunch here today - the hot brown pizza was very good ' excellent attentive wait staff

Was there about a month ago 20 minutes before they were closing, turned us away and said they were already closed and woman at the cash register was very rude

Terrible service though I wouldn't blame the waitstaff. They were severely shorted because of a large private party in the back room for the Bourbon Fest. While the food did taste good my dish that was supposed to be chicken-shrimp-prosciutto pasta had exactly one shrimp and no prosciutto. Next time they host such a party I recommend they close the restaurant.

Who would have thought you would find a neat European restaurant in downtown Bardstown, Kentucky that would make you think you were in a quaint European dining room somewhere in Europe. We were told we had to visit the place and to take lots of money. The restaurant is in the downtown main street area (actually Third Street). We parked on the street about a block away as there were lost of people just out walking the street and dropping into various restaurants and there are several in that small area. The restaurant is typical European style and the prices on the high side I think for a small town. Not so much so for a large city. Try the Wiener Schnitzel for about $17 or the Cordon Blue for around $18. Many customers were ordering the Kreso Angus Burger. Also available are steaks and seafood.Both are very good. Order the scalloped potatoes.The wait service is very good and the dining room a pleasant experience. There is a complete bar with most any Kentucky whiskey available. After all we are in Kentucky.

As others have said, to find a European establishment in the midst of Bardstown was a pleasant surprise. Very good, attentive service. The menu is straightforward and simple, highlighting what the restaurant does well and eliminating anything it doesn't. The way it should be. The atmosphere is dark but warm. Excellent selection at the bar. Food was quite good, the schnitzel nataral was excellent. Also delicious was the soup du jour, spicy chicken of some sort. Definitely recommend at the very least for some variety and to escape the endless assault of boring burgers and bar food.

Kreso's was recommended by the locals at Xavier's Pub and what a pleasant surprise to find such a wonderful "European" establishment on the main drag of Bardstown. The story of the owners' escape from Serbia is worth the price of admission! The restaurant is in the former theatre and the manager gave us a tour to include the theature where they often hold wedding receptions. Kreso's has a super bar, large and well stocked. My wife had the chicken marsala and I the ribeye. Both were cooked to perfection and our sides were great. All in all, a great place and a super dinner.

Normally I wouldn't return to the scene of a crime, I'm not your average criminal, but Kreso's deserved an update. I'm not really in fan territory yet, but sometimes you have to give credit where credit's due and there has been some improvement. Kreso's atmosphere is its strongpoint. It's a beautiful place on the interior, romantic I would say, and worth checking out for this element alone. Soft music (let's call it adult contemporary) playing in the background, very soft lighting if not a bit dark. The bar is fairly well-stocked with the local bourbons, as any Bardstown restaurant worth their salt must be. The service is improved and still friendly. The food is better, at least it was for lunch. With a large party during the lunch hour, the order was taken quickly, the Bosnian salad was good (It's really just a salad ;-) with raisins and a vinaigrette) and our orders came out timely, hot, with sizable portions. I had the Kreso Burger (Angus burger, Kaiser roll, sauerkraut, swiss cheese with a sweet dressing) was actually very good and extremely juicy. I could only eat half and I am not a light eater. Everyone else seemed very pleased with their choices. So, I'm upping it a star to give it an average 3-1/2 on my part, which seems about right.

The Kreso's have done a wonderful job converting this old theater into a great restaurant. The only place in town to get schnitzels the selection of food is really nice and offers a few European dishes and more basic dishes such as a steaks, fish, and salads. The bar in this place is fantastic and was hand carved, furthermore it has a great selection of spirits and beers on tap. At lunch time they offer a dish they call the Kreso Burger. Imagine a reuben and a hamburger had a child and this is what you get. It's really good. For dinner I love the Kentucky Cordon Bleu, they have an interesting take on the traditional Cordon Bleu, they use schnitzel instead of chicken and country ham instead of just regular ham. Paired up with a side of noodles with their special seasoning and you got a winner.

We were worried when we arrived here on a Tuesday night at 6:30 and absolutely no one was here. Business eventually did pick up halfway through the meal. Our dining selections were fine. While my order of Chicken Masala seemed to lack a certain punch, my wife's selection of grilled trout was excellent. Out of the three places we ate during our stay in Bardstown - though none were exceptional - I think this one was probably the best.
(3)Spalding H.
One of my favorite places to dine in Bardstown. A wonderful dining atmosphere and a great menu, all inside of a historic theatre.
(5)Rob S.
The food gets three stars, but the overall rating gets a bump for the dignified atmosphere. We'll visit here again. Chicken as clearly overdone, brocolli was fresh and perfectly done, scalloped potatoes were good, and the salad was adequate.
