- JJohnVIPCincinnati / Dayton •24 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoMalone's has achieved a level of excellence that is rare in the restaurant business. The wait staff are in a team, so you never have to wait to ask for something. Everyone knows the menu, including cocktails backward and forward. The food quality and ambiance are impeccable. The Bluegrass Hospitality Group is also amazing in achieving this level at multiple sites.More infoMalone’s – HamburgPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Lexington•4.8
- JJonCentral Kentucky •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoAlmost perfect as usual. In fact, the server team perceived that they took too long and comped one of the meals without me even feeling like they made a mistake or asking me. They were courteous and the food was great. I got chicken linguine, two filets with henry bain, a crabcake, a pepsi and a Manhattan for $77. Ridiculously good experience. You can't really make a mistake choosing to dine here. The new crabcake they brought back is even better than the first one by the way.More infoMalone’s - PalomarPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Lexington•4.8
- SStephanieCentral Kentucky •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoWe went out for my husband's birthday and it was our first time ever going to jeff ruby's. I'm telling you it was amazing. The staff was on point and friendly. Our waiter Johnathan was amazing. He walked us through the menu, continuously checked on us, and gave his honest opinions on the menu items. We had the Japanese A5 filet, and I'm telling you, u won't regret it. It's the best melt in your mouth steak we ever had. Thank you all for making our night memorable!More infoJeff Ruby's Steakhouse - LexingtonPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Lexington•4.8
