Kentucky Derby, 2001, Chef Edward Lee, in search of the great American dining experience, happened upon the legendary local restaurant, 610 Magnolia. For 25 years, it stood as the touchstone of high Louisville cuisine under the guidance of its former chef and owner who was about to retire his career and the 610 Magnolia name. The fortuitous meeting between the two chefs resulted in Chef Edward Lee acquiring the restaurant and making Louisville & 610 Magnolia his home to showcase his contemporary and innovative approach to dining.
Located in the heart of historic Old Louisville, 610 Magnolia offers its guests a unique combination of southern hospitality and urban sophistication under one roof. The restaurant is a simple statement in elegance with the original wooden beams along the ceiling, mullioned windows and French doors inviting diners to enjoy the sultry summer evenings in the garden patio. Inside, the restaurant exudes simple elegance with its highly polished mahogany tables, Frette linens and Riedel crystal that add up, along with the unsurpassed wine list, to a truly unique dining experience.
