Awesome find. Stopped by for lunch, tempted to return for dinner. Shared the chicken liver and ravioli for starter. Full selection of bourbon and wine. Staff is fully attentive. read more

Heirloom and I used to be good friends, and it was my favorite place to eat when I worked in Midway. Now that I work in downtown Lexington, I don't get to Heirloom as much as I would like, but last weekend some friends and I were in Midway for the annual chocolate walk and we stopped for lunch at this marvelous place. It was every bit as delicious as I remembered, and I had the same difficult time choosing exactly what I wanted to eat. The menu included several familiar dishes, and a few new offerings, but the chalkboard sign out front said "shrimp and grits" so that it what I ordered...and it was absolutely delicious. Big, meaty shrimp on a bed of creamy, cheesy grits was the perfect dish for that rainy day. My friend's Caesar salad look so delicious that a few of us decided to share one of our own, and I'm so glad we did...it was a perfect balance of tangy and cheesy, and the crisp lettuce and salty lemony taste of the anchovies made this salad a complete success. Heirloom used to serve these amazing skinny fries, and though fries were still on the menu they weren't shoestring thin like they used to be. I did save room for dessert - because I know their desserts are fabulous - and the bread pudding I ordered to share was divine. Every chef in Kentucky has a recipe for bread pudding, usually with some kind of bourbon sauce, but this pudding was delicate, creamy, and less sweet than many other offerings but every bit as satisfying with a scoop of house-made ice cream and a hint of raspberry sauce. When I find a restaurant I really love, and I haven't eaten there in a while, I worry that either my memory of the place is off, or that the food won't be as good as it used to be. No need to worry with Heirloom. Every bite was better than I remembered, the staff (many of the same faces) was wonderful, and the restaurant was every bit as warm and cozy as it has always been. I will continue to highly recommend Heirloom, and as we come up to Keeneland's spring meet, the Kentucky Three-Day, and the Derby, it will continue to be a place I will proudly take my out-of-town guests. read more

First time at Heirloom, though I'd eaten at Distilled in Lexington, one of Wombles's other restaurants, and had been really impressed. Same quality of food and service at Heirloom, though in a more intimate setting. Over cocktails, we had the cheese and fruit plate, which had three contrasting and delicious cheeses along with olives, grapes, candied walnuts, etc. My companions had the burger and thought it was delicious. I had the striped bass, which was perfectly cooked. I know the foodie intelligentsia is nuts about crispy fish skin, but I've found it adds texture but sometimes an off-putting flavor, but maybe the other places (and my attempts at home) have just lacked sufficient technique, because it was delicious on the bass. It was served on a leek and onion risotto with pieces of country ham--I could have eaten three times the amount served. The asparagus were crisp-tender and complemented the dish well. The service was friendly and attentive and I was exceptionally satisfied with my meal. Will definitely come back. read more

My wife and I have enjoyed a couple of very nice lunches at Heirloom. All the meals (pork tacos and fried chicken on one visit, I can't recall the others) were very good. And, the homemade ice cream was outstanding! It's a very nice little place tucked into the downtown Midway streetscape. Give it a try! read more

The place was packed...on a Wednesday evening! The aromas were great. Wine was flowing freely - 50% off in-stock bottles of wine! We were tended by the friendly Gretchen. Started with a French Champagne...yum Appetizer was Halibut Tempura (fried white fish...). Came with a Uzu sauce...we quickly devoured this plate! Dinner: wife had the perfectly cooked Tenderloin with a blue cheese rich sauce...she wouldn't share. The couple bites I snuck in proved this was some tasty beef. I doubled down in Halibut. To try to get the crispy outer layer, Chef overcooked the top portion if the fish. Very edible just made for a good chew. Great crust though! I could see this as a regular lunch or dinner place if I lived nearby. read more

After a day at the races in Lexington, my friends and I decided to visit the small town of Midway, KY where the Main St. (aptly named) houses a number of shopping boutiques and bistro restaurants. This is where we found Heirloom. Chef/owner Mark Wombles comes from terrific cooking pedigree, having attending culinary school in San Francisco and working with notable chefs like Michael Mina. The flavors and styles he experienced in Northern California are present in the food he prepares at Heirloom. The room is very austere. Walls are adorned with a unique style of artwork known as mon-kiri, a Japanese method of paper cutting. A series of high banked booths run along the sides of the room with a small number of 4-top tables in the middle that are rearranged to fit expanding diner group needs. There's a small bar in the back right of the room which didn't show much activity, even on a Friday night. I and two of my friends started with the warm spinach salad. The waitress described this dish as a "must not miss" option. The spinach was indeed warm but not wilted. It was served in a delicious red wine vinaigrette with bacon, goat cheese, roasted peppers and topped with crispy fried onions. While quite pleasing, the salad could hardly be described as an essential component to a perfect meal. Another of my friends ordered the curry red lentil soup which she said was well-layered with rich flavors. It was with the entrees that the chef's culinary flair was best on display. I was quite impressed with the code wrapped in thin slices of baking potatoes and broiled to perfection, served with a pancetta and English peas cream sauce. The beef tenderloin, cooked perfectly to the temperature ordered, was served over a bed of purple Okinawa mashed sweet potatoes with a broccoli gratin and a Malbec sauce. Simply remarkable! The Infamous Mary Burger was quite large and served with a cone filled with crispy thin fries. Had we not been full from the meal and a day of munching on racetrack food, we would most certainly have tried the desserts. The molten chocolate cake looked quite appealing. If you're on the bourbon trail and looking for a great place to wind down the day, then hustle over to Midway and sit yourself down at Heirloom. You will not be disappointed! read more

I often travel alone which means I often dine alone. When I arrived as a party of one, they denied me a table. They said I could sit at the bar but would not give me a table or booth. I was hesitant to stay because I'm short and I feel uncomfortable in bar stools with my legs dangling during my meal and it adds to my lower back trouble. However the stools were comfortable and I decided to stay. I had a cocktail and a lovey cheese plate. The service was a bit inattentive, they were busy, but the plate was wonderful. read more

Heirloom Restaurant - New American Near Me - Midway, Kentucky

Table of four split the things below. I can't say one bad thing about our experience except that I with that I would have dined here much sooner. I'm very excited about what the chefs at Heirloom are creating. It rivals the best New American restaurants in Louisville, and is definitely worth the drive. The Midway Main St. charm only adds to the wow factor. We are coming back, and bringing more friends. Cheese plate with the best green olives Crab cake (yes! In landlocked KY!) Warm spinach salad (with bacon dressing!) Chilled carrot soup with garlic essence Potato and asparagus salad Beef tenderloin Grouper with risotto (my order and personal favorite) Agnolotti with pea shoots Passion fruit and mango financier Rocky road deconstructed Coconut curry ice cream with cake Raspberry ice cream Chocolate Mousse plate (semifredo, brownie, a bourbon ganache, etc) Limoncello Gin martini with thyme (gin from Wisconsin) read more

We were in town for vacation & made an Open Table reservation for 8:30pm, party of 4, on a Friday night. Delicious food, elegant but not stuffy decor, appropriately priced menu. We ordered the scallops, the meatballs, the duck breast & the pork loin. All very tasty, great presentation. Earlier in the day, my husband received two text messages with two different reservation times from Open Table. He called the restaurant to confirm our time was 8:30. We arrived at the restaurant right at 8:30pm. There must be a problem with patrons sitting at tables too long. They have signage on the windows, albeit a bit unwelcoming, to not "over stay your welcome". When we checked in, we were told our table was unavailable and to come back in 10 minutes. Not a problem. We window shopped the many cute storefronts. We checked back 15 minutes later and were told our table was still unavailable. When we asked if we could sit at one of the two available tables for 4, we were told those were for other parties. It was then that the hostess realized the Open Table snafu. We were listed as a party of 8. Although not the restaurant's mistake, I feel there were three missed opportunities to confirm our party size: 1. When my husband called earlier in the day to confirm the time. 2. For the size of the restaurant, a personal phone call to confirm each reservation might help the staff be the most efficient during the dinner rush. 3. When we arrived, a greeting of "Glass party of 8?" would have immediately alerted all to the Open Table error. The hostess offered an appetizer for the confusion, but I believe she got busy and wasn't able to follow through with the gesture. Our server was polite, friendly and did a good job. In summary, great food & great ambiance! I think additional training plus experience in problem-solving will help the host staff bring the restaurant up to five stars. read more

Heirloom bested my expectations. It was the perfect dinner spot for taking my wife on her birthday dinner-date! The food, setting, seating, and the service were top notch. It's a very homey and happy place, and the southern charm of downtown Midway is very apparent in Heirloom. We split the crab cake app (the best crab cake I've ever had inland). I had the warm spinach bacon salad, and she the squash soup. For dinner I had the Beef Tenderloin, which was unimaginably delicious and utterly perfectly cooked. She had the grilled cauliflower steak, and she loved it. Autumn specialty dessert, and we proceeded to waddle to the car, relaxed, stuffed, and slipping into a full-bore food coma. Moral of the story - Heirloom in Midway = 5's and you should check it out! read more

My wife and I were visiting Frankfort and decided to try this place for dinner. We did not have reservations, so only the bar was open. There was only one other couple there, so that worked well for us. They had an extensive bourbon selection (as any good restaurant in Kentucky should), and a good selection of red wine for my wife. My wife had the short ribs (the most expensive item on the menu). I tried it and it was outstanding. As good as short ribs can get. It was a perfect single serving. I had the meatballs with a slightly spicy red sauce on a bed of grits. The meatballs were very good, although a bit firm. I would have liked them a little more tender. The service was excellent. Interestingly, it was an entirely female staff. They ran the place with precision. Our server (Kay) was also the bartender, the restaurant drink mixer, she ran food to the tables and rang up all of the bills. It was a really wonderful dining experience. But, it's a bit high priced as well. read more

Had a wonderful lunch. Highlight was the dessert :) Didn't write down the names, but we had two to share :) Pistacho lemon poppyseed and blueberry. Yummy. read more

Heirloom Restaurant - New American Near Me - Midway, Kentucky

Came here for a weekend lunch for my birthday. It was AMAZING. My partner and I are new to the area and have been looking for a place that feels indulgent, comforting, and absolutely delicious. This is it. Started with some deviled eggs (it was, after all, still basically breakfast time). Cocktails were well made and not too sweet. I had the rabbit confit, which was rich and savory and I could have slurped the sauce right up. My husband got the fish and chips, which he says was some of the very best he's ever had. It was perfectly fried, moist and flakey and the fish was super flavorful. We split the special dessert (lemon cake, white chantilly creme, berries, and strawberry sorbet) and the banana chunk ice cream, which was so flavorful! Service was great and we were so glad the weather held out so we could sit outside. Definitely worth making a reservation early for lunch if outdoor space is a concern, and if you want deviled eggs before they run out! Already thinking about the next time we can come back for another meal. read more

Wow. What a lovely evening. Very relaxing and warm environment, AWESOME service, and the food was AMAZING. We celebrated a friend's birthday, and it really was special. It's not cheap, but oh soooo good. I can't wait to come back again. Bravo. ***** read more

Delicious food and fun atmosphere! We tried the fish tacos and crab cake sandwich. Scrumptious!!! read more

Heirloom Restaurant - Crab cake sandwich and heirloom fries - New American Near Me - Midway, Kentucky

One word...transcendent. The most beautiful dinner I have had in years. Meredith, our waitress was phenomenal...so kind and incredibly knowledgeable. Had an amazing time experiencing new foods and wines. Definitely get the chicken livers, duck confit, Black Forest cake, and ice cream of the day! Can't say enough good things about this place. read more

Great spot! Fried chicken was great and service was impeccable! Easy to get to from Frankfort or lexington.

Again, another near flawless meal at Heirloom. We tried the new "fried" spinach salad which is truly something different. the Caesar salad and seasonal soups were both good, but not overpowering. We went back for the Octopus Kimchi appetizer again and this time it was even better than the last - and I am not even that much of an octopus fan. So far we have had 4 entrees here and in order of preference: 1. Scallops - heavenly, but pricey for portion size; 2. Pork Chops - excellent; 3. Lamb - good but not "great", especially considering portion size; 4. Halibut - good for a white fish, but not good enough to order again over other great options. Once again, too full for dessert. Total check with wine remains pricey for outside the big city, but dollar for quality comparable to best restaurants in Louisville. read more

Have had some nice meals here, but last night's was uninspiring. The halibut was overcooked, dry, and lacked flavor. The accompanying veggies left a lot to be desired in presentation and taste. The tomato salad was delicious. The service was sluggish. read more

Great service, delicious food ( get the cole slaw-so good with a little kick) and a charming historic town!

Heirloom is my new go to spot! It's beautifully designed and the filet is the best I've ever had. It's like stepping into a Hallmark movie when you visit Midway and Heirloom makes it that much better. read more

This was my third trip and it feels as though I can give an adequate review. Every time I have been the food has been absolutely outstanding. The fried spinach salad is a really fun and unique take on this dish. The soup every time is typically root vegetable based and adding a little bit of salt makes it a dynamite creamy dish. The sweet potatoes on the steak could use a little more seasoning but still a good dish. Why I didn't review before even though the food was always amazing was due to the poor service. The service staff had been rude or out of it my last two trips. That changed tonight. Riley did an absolute phenomenal job. She was pleasant, knowledgeable, and exactly what one would wish for in service staff. I cannot go on about how much her service changed my perception of this establishment. She is a gem. read more

Great, fresh food and very friendly service. This is definitely my favorite in the area. Great selection of delicious, flavorful food prepared perfectly. I got the shrimp capellini prepared over squash and zucchini "noodles" with a little lemon & mint dressing. Delicious read more

I admit we cheated a bit because we Yelped this prior to eating here so we didn't FIND this amazing spot on our own. And the only reason this is a 4 not 5 is there isn't a full bar which is our benchmark. First of all the town is worth visiting on its own, slice of a past era, great architecture and beautiful foliage. Its a sort of soothing place to stop in between Bourbon tasting stops. If you're hungry for a meal OR DESSERT you'll need to eat here but make reservations first as its small AND people want to eat here, we were lucky because we were there early and sat outside. The menu at lunch is perfect in size and selection, there is something everyone and its not blotted with trendy things some restaurants feel they have to have. The menu is interesting for foodies like me (crab cake sandwich on brioche with zippy cole slaw, and an arugula salad dressing with a lemon concoction that was sublime especially as it was really hot out) and traditional dishes like Fish and Chips (my mother in law from Rhode Island said was the best she'd had in years, she was right it was). The service was lovely and timely. I'd go back to Midway just to eat here. read more

Elegant, cozy little restaurant in quaint Midway. Great service and delicious food. The beef tenderloin entree was really wonderful- purple potatoes and the most amazing broccoli gratin you can imagine. read more

Why are you still reading reviews, just go here. Period. Do it. Now! We were looking fora good meal on a rainy night after the Bourbon Trail and boy did we find it. This place was perfection. The service was top notch and the food was amazing! I'm pretty sure I made inappropriate moaning noises while eating my beef tenderloin. The decor is cute and cozy. Stop reading and go now, really. read more

I was instantly delighted by the decor and ambiance and happy to sit at the bar until our table was ready. Our excitement to try this raved about restaurant was soon over however - overshadowed by a rude comment muttered by one of the male servers after I ordered a classic daiquiri..."maybe you should try Applebee's." Really? Maybe you should learn how to make the very classic Hemingway Daiquiri (rum, fresh lime juice, & simple syrup) or ANYTHING beyond the handful of overly sweet fruit juice cocktails on your drink menu. And might I suggest a bit of restraint on your ignorance-induced insults? Once we were seated and were handed off to Hanna, we realized we were now in much better hands. She was charming, kind, and knowledgeable. She recommended the amazing beef tartar appetizer (which was incredible) and helped us all the way through dessert. She even gave us wonderful ideas for how to spend our last day in town, site-seeing in Frankfurt and checking out a couple distilleries. We really appreciated her! The food was ridiculously good. Perfect from start to finish (though it was hard to finish - so much food!) We had the Beef Tartar, Warm spinach salad (both unbelievable,) the crab cake (the peppery micro herbs and super fresh corn took it over the edge,) the Beef Tenderloin & Mary Burger (both stupid good) & Cheesecake with Strawberry Basil sorbet for dessert. An absolutely stunning meal. Thank you Hanna for the great service, and chefs, thank you for your amazing cuisine. I wish I could have been spared the early insult, but overall it was a lovely evening. read more

We were in town doing a tour of the Bourbon Trail and found this gem. I know if we are ever back in the area I know we will be returning. I started off some bourbon, neat as they have a fairly good selection in their bar. We'd read about the spinach salad so we gave it a shot. Wow, it was good. Moving on to our entree I went with the Beef Tenderloin which was cooked perfectly. The sweet potato was interesting in a good way and the malbec sauce was perfect. The presentation was great and the dish looked as good as it tasted. Bottom line was this place was great. It was pretty affordable for what you get, but it's more than a trip to AppleBee's. Do yourself a favor and give this place a shot, you'll be glad you did. read more

I went here for dinner the other night with my friend and was really happy with what I ate. We ordered the cheese board to start, which was yummy. Then I had the scallops for dinner and they were to die for. I also had a French 75 that was good as well. There's nothing bad you can say about the food here :) The service is a little slow but the food is worth the wait! read more

This was the most impressive dinner we had while visiting Kentucky. Heirloom is located in a tiny historic district outside Lexington - and the restaurant itself has a cozy, romantic atmosphere. They rely on seasonal, local ingredients, so the menu changes frequently and the specials all sound enticing. Our table shared an order of the homemade sausage appetizer, which came with mushrooms, gnocchi, and a poached egg. We had to request an extra basket of warm, crusty French bread to sop up all the decadent, yolky sauce. The marvelously creamy, fresh-tasting gazpacho was another hit, even if I do not want to know how much olive oil is required to produce that velvety texture! The rabbit wrapped in bacon, ultra-tender pork tenderloin, seared duck breast, and English pea agnolotti were all so delicious that the entire table was inducted to the clean plate club. For dessert, we shared an order of deconstructed blueberry cobbler - intensely flavorful cooked-down blueberries topped with a cornmeal shortcake and berry meringue - and a dish of olive oil cake with strawberry ice cream and a jammy strawberry sauce. It is a rare thing to visit a restaurant where every single dish that comes out of the kitchen is well thought out and executed splendidly. On top of that, our waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and just plain delightful. The restaurant was buzzing throughout the evening, so weekend reservations are a must. If you are in the Lexington area, Heirloom is a must-try. read more

Hands down best restaurant. Fresh seasonal ingredients, excellent service. Outstanding. Everything we put in our mouths was scrumptious.

Absolutely the best restaurant in LEX area. We just wish they were closer to LEX. Creative and simple menus. All dishes are executed perfectly. Service is pleasant, attentive, friendly and yet not pretentious or overbearing. Mike and William surely are very knowledgeable about the wine! Everything we tried - Salads (root vegetables, Caesar, and warm spinach salads), appetizers (scallops, chicken livers), and entrees (rabbits, duck breast, beef tenderloin, and red snapper) - were all delicious and beautifully presented. Desserts (chocolate molten cake, ice creams, and a caramel apple and cake dessert whose name we forgot) were perfect, too: not too sweet and creative. Always a good time at the Heirloom! read more

We really enjoyed our dinner here on a Friday evening. My fiancé ordered the lamb and I ordered the crab cake. Just when we thought we had possibly been waiting for a little too long, the server brought out the piping hot and perfectly cooked meals. Well worth the wait! Furthermore, the location of the restaurant in downtown Midway is very cute and picturesque. Definitely worth a stop and a return visit! read more

My husband and I ate at Heirloom for the first time earlier this month. It came highly recommended for serving southern comfort food with a big city twist. The recommendation was well deserved, because we both loved the food, service, and atmosphere. And, the prices were very reasonable for the quality that we received - we were pleasantly surprised, considering the food was terrific and we both left so stuffed we could barely walk (thanks to the southern comfort aspect!). The restaurant is tiny (so reservations are almost requisite), and it is snugly situated in picturesque historic Midway (quaint and home to some of the most beautiful scenery in the Bluegrass State). The interior is very nice and reflects a more upscale dining experience (but seemed kind of lackluster to me, since the hearty but gourmet food itself and the natural beauty of Midway outshines any big city trappings). Our server was a very sweet girl who gave just enough personalized attention without overdoing it. She was familiar with the food preparation and answered all of our questions accordingly (i.e., I'm not a big fan of servers who don't know anything about the menu, or who assert unhelpful comments like "I don't like fish so I don't know"). We both had salads: I had the warm spinach salad and my husband had the roasted beet salad. We loved my warm spinach salad, which was pungent with vinegar and creamy goat cheese - and it was HUGE. We could have easily split the salad. We also shared the crab cake with "sweet corn veloute, avocado, corn-cotija salad, sriracha honey." This appetizer was heavenly - the velvety sauce under the tender, golden crab cake was addictive - I ate it with a spoon! And the crisp sweet corn was just a lovely touch of texture. My husband isn't a fan of crab cakes (madness, I know) and he loved the dish as well. For entrees, he ordered the filet mignon with a veal glaze, and I had beef short rib on grits topped with a jicama slaw. I don't see either dish still on the menu, which is a travesty! They were both sexily prepared and throw-your-hands-up-and-holler delicious! My husband's steak was perfectly cooked and the veal glaze topping it was just ridiculous. And I loved my dish: the meat was fall-off-the-bone tender, the grits were luscious (I love me some grits, and loved that they made an appearance on a 'fancy' menu) and the jicama slaw was a perfect and crunchy topping. I truly hope that these entrees will make a reappearance again, because we fully intend to return Heirloom! Our sweet server also had the chef special prepare me an Irish coffee upon my request (something they don't normally have on the menu), since we were both so stuffed - we couldn't finish our entrees or have dessert - and I didn't think I'd make it home without a jolt of caffeine. The Irish coffee was perfect, and the chef had hand-whipped some cream on the spot (they should seriously put this permanently on the menu, as my man did a good job improvising). The final check (glass of wine, Irish coffee, two salads, appetizer and two entrees) was about $120 - very reasonable, considering we have spent that much per person in Cincinnati alone. And, we both agreed that Heirloom easily rivals any of the big city restaurants we've dined at...and, I'll say it, for the price, quality and portion sizes, I think Heirloom trumps my favorite fine-dining Cincinnati restaurant, Boca (gasp!). We definitely found a new favorite and will return the next time we want to splurge a bit. read more

Meals were divine. Chicken Liver with lemon - unique and delicious Crab cake sandwich - huge and full of authentic crab Saw a bacon burger - thought it looked unreal! Wanted to eat here again but ran out of time on our vacation. We also ate at the Grey Goose (down the street), Heirloom was so much better. read more

This was the perfect, ultra-special birthday dinner venue. It's small but beautiful, has an urban feel, and is totally worth the drive to Midway. I'd drive there right now just for the crispy spinach dish. If it had been any better, Jesus would have taken it with him. Our chicken livers and ravioli appetizer was toe curling delicious- a myriad of heavenly flavors and textures. The mushroom toast is a rich, satisfying, shareable delight. Our entrees- one king salmon and one rabbit were tasty and tender. I wanted to lick my plate but somehow restrained myself. Chef Phil needs to install seat belts to prevent diners from levitating out of their seats. This is now our favorite place. I just don't know how it could possibly be any better. read more

Pretension run amok. For me, the best part of serendipitous restaurant discovery in a small town is the opportunity to find that rare gem of culinary masterwork in a quaint and unpretentious setting. Unfortunately, you will find neither at Heirloom. My wife and I literally stumbled across this place after a day of sightseeing while on a family visit. Upon walking in, we knew we'd made a mistake. The stark walls of white and muted tones were as cold as the smile of the hostess. After asking if we had reservations (What?! You DO realize there's a train track running through the middle of this one-street-light town, right?) - of course we did not - she promptly shuffled us to the back of the restaurant. Not that this mattered. The uncomfortable booth seating rises so high that there's hardly a chance of feeling the vibe of the place. The ambiance in a nutshell: horrible lighting + minimal interior interest + the smell of kitchen disinfectant. Yea. Our meals, once ordered, took over twenty-five minutes to arrive. The good news for us was that this allowed the waiter plenty of time to promise us how excellent it was going to be when it finally arrived. He lied. The meal itself was adequate at best. Nothing to write home about, and certainly not worthy of the pretension being dished out in spades. My advice - stay well clear of this establishment until the obviously neophyte restauranteurs fold up and allow someone with real chops - and a congenial small town attitude - to open a spot worth visiting. read more

Wow! I've wanted to try this place forever and finally made it for lunch today. Had a parsnip soup topped with fried parsnips and paddlefish caviar and a kale and goat cheese salad. Hubby had a Mary Burger. Since I always try his food too I can attest to the fact that every bite of everything was incredible. Perfectly seasoned and delicious! Awesome service by Angel too! Can't wait to come back. read more

What a gem in the heart of Midway! All the staff were warm and friendly when we arrived very early for our reservation. Luckily they have a small bar at the back and we were able to have a couple drinks before dinner. They were even thoughtful enough to bring out these amazing, warm pretzel rolls for us to snack on. Our dinner was delicious. We started with the chicken livers and the crab cake. Both were very good. My husband had the rack of lamb, which was tender and flavorful, albeit a little salty. I had the pork chop and it was also very good, just slightly dry. I can't wait to return and sample more items in this lovely restaurant. Heirloom isn't pretentious; it is classy and sophisticated. And taking reservations is necessary when a restaurant is this busy, so make sure you have one if you plan to have dinner there on a Friday or Saturday night. read more

This foodie loves heirloom. Divine and delicious food! Highly recommend. Worth the drive to quaint Midway. My favorite of the midway dining establishments.Go! read more
