We started with drinks. I ordered the spiced pear daquiri...superb! My son and I shared the 20 oz. ribeye and mac and cheese and my husband ordered a buffalo chicken sandwich. All delicious!

- RRachelCentral Kentucky •1 review5.0Dined 5 days agoA cozy ambiance made me feel at home. Our server was jovial and personable without being over-present. The wilted brussel sprout salad was a delectable starter. We both enjoyed our drinks, an amazing wine selection that would impress a connoisseur and of course our main dishes delighted our palettes. Reasonable prices for a fine dining experience. Noise level was ever so low and we conversed with ease. I look forward to our next visit!More infoDudley's on ShortPrice: Expensive• American• Lexington•4.8
- LLisaNew York City •32 reviews4.0Dined on Nov 19, 2024I eat here anytime I go to Lexington or Louisville. The Bluegrass special chicken is one of my all-time favorite dishes I’ve ever eaten. It’s usually absolutely delicious. While it was good tonight, the sauce, or glacé, was not right. Normally it has a little bit of sweetness to it from the bourbon. Tonight there was no sweetness, and the depth of the sauce was just not there. I did tell my server, but he did not seem particularly concerned about it. The food was still delicious it just wasn’t what I am used to. I’ve probably had this dish 10 or 12 times, and this is the very first time that it wasn’t the same. It’s no big deal but I thought I would add this so that management would know. I will definitely be back. In fact I’m going back before I leave Lexington this week. Hoping the glacé will be up to expectations then.More infoMalone’s - LansdownePrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Lexington•4.7
