A spot in Louisville was recently recognized as the restaurant with the best cheeseburger in Kentucky in 2023, according to the restaurant review website Yelp.

Oskar’s Slider Bar, about an hour from Lexington, was awarded the title.

Yelp created the list by looking at restaurants with a large number of reviews mentioning the word “cheeseburger.” Then, the company ranked the restaurants according to the number of five-star ratings using that word between Jan. 1 and July 20. The list, “Top cheeseburgers in every state in 2023,” was published in November.

Kentucky’s pick, Oskar’s, boasts 162 five-star reviews on Yelp.

“All of their sliders are great but my favorite is the cheeseburger slider. It is everything a cheeseburger should be!,” one reviewer wrote earlier this month.
