Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Nicholasville

We enjoyed a really enjoyable evening at the Lockbox last night. Very comfortable seating in a peaceful, sophisticated environment. Wait staff was helpful and available as needed. I loved the variety and inventiveness of the menu…there’s something for everyone on the menu.

I’m so sad this restaurant is closing. The brunch menu was absolutely fantastic; the Elote dip I had was well seasoned and served with fresh tortilla chips, and the south by southwest omelette was loaded with flavor from the elote on the top and the sausage. Everything was served hot in generous portions and came out at a perfect pace. My server, Kelsey, was kind, attentive, and kept the coffee and water flowing. I can’t wait to eat here for Christmas Eve dinner, and highly recommend checking them out before the close at the end of the year!

It was such a lovely experience. The waitstaff, the managers, and the hostess all came around at various times to make sure everything was to our liking. Our server, Parker, was very helpful and very efficient and the same goes for the bartender. Jordan. The meal itself was presented so beautifully and was absolutely satisfying. We can’t wait to celebrate here more!

Charming but classy atmosphere with a variety of seating options. Exceptional wine list with adequate choices at reasonable prices. Entrees were greatly limited by our reservation time at 7:30 but each and every time we have had the opportunity to indulge in their culinary masterpieces they have been memorable. The only reason the other entree choices including specials was due to the fact that the restaurant chooses to utilize fresh, high quality ingredients keeping cost under control by limiting their orders on daily quantities. Just keep this note in mind and reserve your table at an earlier time of evening. Kelly/Kellie was an exceptional server; it was readily apparent that she had a broad base of skills to ensure that your dining experience reflected the quality this restaurant claims to hold as priority.

Had a lovely waitress named Deb who was very attentive, friendly & funny. Also had her for breakfast!! Awesome. Food was absolutely amazing. We had extra plates for sharing with other family members. Her suggestions were right on target. Will definitely come back here!! Don’t miss!!
