- KKirkCentral Kentucky •9 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoFood and service were outstanding! Wine and Bourbon selection was good also.More infoRodney's on BroadwayPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Lexington•4.7
- MMichaelVIPCentral Kentucky •151 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThis a real gem of a restaurant for both lunch or dinner. A reservation is helpful but it never hurts to check if you’re in that area. The chicken livers are simply the best in central Kentucky and perhaps the best in the eastern half of the country. The deviled eggs with a touch of bacon jam are a great appetizer. The crab cake sandwich is as good as anything I’ve tried on the Atlantic coast including eastern Maryland. Reasonably priced with a good if somewhat limited wines by the glass selection. Warm and friendly staff provide excellent service.More infoHeirloom - MidwayPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Midway•4.8
- JJeremyKansas City / Kansas •2 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoExcellent service on a very busy night. We arrived a bit early for our reservation and sat at the bar to order a drink while we waited. Even though we were unable to get a drink before our table was ready, the bartender was very transparent about how busy he was with tickets and apologized (unnecessarily) about not being able to get to us. Once we sat down the food and drinks were getting to us in a surprisingly timely manner for how packed it was. The food was fantastic and well worth the price.More infoTexas de Brazil - LexingtonPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Lexington•4.4
