Last year's winner
Mojito
2231 Holiday Manor Center
Louisville, KY 40222Neighborhood: Holiday Manor
It's trendy and specializes in tapas, but expect to wait for a table here. But it's definitely worth the wait. The owner of Havana Rumba opened this place about a year ago, and has been met with nothing but success. Be sure to try the specialty cocktails, too.
