    Nice restaurant, low light setting for date night and chill environment. Soup and salad bar included with entree. Hoppin John soup is the best, rice, beans and sausage! Bread loaf and strawberry spread is delicious! Wish they still had the cinnamon butter for the bread! Picture shows broccoli cheddar soup and hoppin John! Beef tips and rice, bourbon glazed salmon, California vegetables. Bread and strawberry butter.

    Looking for a nice steak for supper? Briarpatch has you covered. All entrees come with the amazing fresh salad bar. Since we moved to Owensboro, everyone has recommended this place and told us to make sure and get the salad bar. Deduct $3 if you opt out of the salad bar. I was very pleased with the bacon wrapped filet and grilled shrimp entree. The cheese sticks for appetizers were very good as well. Everything comes with a warm loaf of bread and strawberry butter. It's a very nice and clean restaurant and would recommend for a family dinner or night out.

    The food and service were excellent. The salad bar had lots to choose from and the steak was cooked perfectly.

I may just promote this as the new diet trend of 2025. I ordered their jalapeño cheddar burger on this visit and upgraded my combo to a large side and a large drink with an additional upgrade to add chili and cheese to my fries. My order came out quick and the service was absolutely superb as usual. I took my meal to the table and hurriedly opened up my side order and the sight hit me hard. The ultimate order of... Chili...Cheese...Fries. it was a heaping mound of fries with loads of chili and cheese. In approval, I inadvertently exclaimed "yeah" too loud and quickly scoped around to see if anyone might have heard me. If they had, I'd be forced to take the meal to go. A hearty mountain of deliciousness. My mind spun through scenarios on how to take this task on. Hire a Sherpa, get a pickaxe, and a pack mule perhaps? No no no. My food would be cold by the time they arrived. Focus and use what is at hand. The Wonder Whip Angel provided me with a plastic fork like the Lady of the Lake. It came out of my white bag like Excalibur. I should have asked for a second fork in case the first one breaks or wears down. I should've had a contingency plan. Curse me for a fool! But wait. I still had that burger to get through. I hurriedly scarfed it down enjoying every bit of it, but distracted the entire time by the thought of getting to my fries. I made it to the last bite and thanked the burger for giving its nutrients to me. I raised my fork high with my right hand and opened the clam shell with my left. For anyone watching from afar, I'm sure they only saw a small tasmanian devil tornado of activity with arms and legs and chili and fries and cheese whipping about. They'd be surprised to know that amidst that chaos, was a happy man enjoying a great side dish at a terrific value thanks to Wonder Whip. Im full. Now sleep.

My sister got chicken fingers and they forgot to bring the sauce and she told the the inattentive waitress that it was missing and she didn't bring it back until after my sister was done with her food. In between can never get her attention because she was too busy, flirting with four construction workers that decided to come in there to eat. She only had her and the four construction workers and she couldn't even pay attention to everyone. If I could review the hotel, I would, but the hotel wasn't great either and it's all owned by the same stuff. So there's just management problems everywhere. Save your money and go to other places. They're way more places in town. They're locally on there are much better and there's a lot of places within walking distance of this place that are way better too.

The oldies jams are still in play and keeping the vibe upbeat. I've never been in here tearing up because that forbidden broken heart love song came on at the wrong time. I've been doing burgers and shakes and new flavors of ice cream and I'm discovering that chocolate ice cream and its many descendants are quite delicious. For example I beta tested the Kentucky Fudge Pecan Pie in a baby sized cup and found that I love it! I also reaffirmed that I have zero allergic reaction to pecans. Furthermore, I discovered that pie crust bits in ice cream are flipping fantastic and something I will include in my extensive list of things I am thankful for come this November's Turkey holiday. Props to the Ice Cream expert whom I had been told crafts these flavors in house. Is it some kind of Ice Cream elf? Maybe. That doesn't even matter. Who or whatever is making this delicacy is doing a great job at creaming this ice with fantastic flavor and ruining my ability to drop this final 4 lbs I'm trying to shed. Try it out and enjoy this wondrous thing! But be warned... the pecans may contain nuts. UPDATE: I just discovered that they offer TATOR TOTS! It should be known just by looking at me that tater tots are my favorite means of delivering potatoes to my belly. This delivery process is further expedited by spooning steaming hot chili and shredding cheese over it. They've titled an entire movie after how I eat chili cheese tots. "Gone in 60 Seconds". I devoured it voraciously and it disappeared. I don't know how it tasted because it was immediately absorbed once it appeared on the counter. I'm sure i enjoyed it though. Try it yourself and let me know if it is good. I am not reliable in this instance.

    I love their peanut butter & jelly sandwich with chopped nuts and fresh sliced strawberries!read more
