The listing price for the property is $1.2 million.

The restaurant plans to remain open and does not intend to close, Louisville Business First reported . In a Facebook post on Sept. 14 , Joy Luck showcased a fall-inspired cocktail — a vanilla vodka special — that will be served this season.

Just a couple of doors down at 1279 Bardstown Road, the former Time & Space bar and music venue is currently awaiting city approval for demolition. If approved, the venue, which was damaged in a 2018 fire and never reopened, would become a mixed-use building, which will include a ground-floor restaurant and patio and two 1-bedroom apartments and three 2-bedroom units at the rear, the Courier Journal previously reported .
