Bites Bracket 2019: Louisville's best restaurants battle it out

From breakfast to dessert, Louisville's food scene is overflowing with great options. Fight for your favorite in this March Madness-style bracket.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — UPDATE: We have a winner! You chose Vincenzo's as the best restaurant in Louisville. You can view the full bracket below. Thank you to everyone who voted in the Bites Bracket!

Locals have always known it, but now the nation is starting to take notice of Louisville's food scene. With several Food Network and Cooking Channel champions under its belt, the city is making a name for itself when it comes to cuisine.

With so many delicious options to choose from, we decided that a little friendly competition was in order. So, in the spirit of March Madness, we created the 2019 Bites Bracket.

The bracket is split into four categories: Breakfast, Casual Dining, Upscale Dining, and Sweets/Coffee. We looked at rating sites such as Yelp.com and Thrillist, as well as recommendations from the WHAS11 staff, to build the bracket with some of Louisville's star eateries. 

We think that all of these restaurants are incredible in their own right, but we want to know your favorites. If we missed one of Louisville's hidden treasures, let us know! We love discovering new places to chow down in the Ville.
