Caprese grilled cheese
Evan F.

Stopped by here on a recent weekend in-between Bourbon distillery tours. We got a tip from someone at our first stop, so we decided to give them a try. A bit chilly out, but their new patio space was hard to pass up! When we pulled into the parking lot, the smell of slow-smoked meats wafted through the air, and their green egg was cranking away. We then knew we had to get something from that smoker!!! Service was leisurely, but we were in no hurry. We sipped on our teas and waited for the two "specials" to arrive. The caprese grilled cheese sandwich was charred and crisp on the outside, bright and tangy inside served with a wonderful salad full of mixed veggies, fruits, nuts and a slightly sweet dressing that tied it all together perfectly. The smoked pork tacos were the bomb...smoky, charred chunks of pork butt served in flour tortillas topped with tomatoes, scallions, shredded cabbage and a wonderful crema sauce. The views are a million bucks and the pace slowed at this spot...maybe next time we'll actually stop and drink some of their wine! Well done, team!

Burger & chips
Laura B.

Finally got to check out this place after moving back to Kentucky, and it's a welcome and much-needed addition to the Marion County dining scene. The service was friendly, the food is tasty, and the prices are extremely reasonable. For a $6 wine tasting, I think we tasted about 8 wines plus a wine slushie. Eat your heart out, Napa Valley! We shared a 1/2 cheese plate, which was jam-packed with so much goodness. This was a great deal, which is really noteworthy because as much as I love a good cheese plate, I usually feel like I'm getting robbed on the price for one, but not here. Next, I had the pulled chicken wrap with broccoli salad which were both tasty and fresh. My husband had the burger, which comes with pimento cheese on it, and chips, which he apparently enjoyed since he didn't leave a crumb. My dad had the pimento grilled cheese and rib chili, which was a special of the day. They were very generous with the wine tasting - We ended up getting to try not one but two flavors of wine slushies as the end. Thanks, Jester's!

Cheese plate happiness!

Thick fresh cut fries with amazing homemade ranch dressing. I had the burger and it's the best burger in Madison County hands down. The brioche bun is buttery soft but the meat itself was flavorful and fresh and that's what makes this the best burger in the county! My wife had the airline chicken breast with succotash and mashed sweet potatoes. This was very good but the kitchen was heavy handed with the gastric and that downtown the dish off a bit. The mash and succotash and chicken were all great and flavorful. Next time I'd ask for a gastric drizzle! Service was fantastic and Honeysuckle has made it onto our restaurant rotation list.

We will never waste our money here again. Service was awful, appetizer burned, both duck and steak were overcooked. My meal was supposed to come with asparagus that was no where to found. When I inquired about the side, I was told that the asparagus was ground up in the half dollar size polenta cake. SERIOUSLY?? Duck portion was less than 4 ounces (mostly fat). . $45 for a tiny filet. These folks are trying to play at being a real restaurant when all they're really doing is robbing people blind with sub par food and service. One person covering 5 (yes, 5 WHOLE tables). Even on an incredibly slow night service was awful. I don't know about anybody else out there, but I don't have $200 to throw away on BS restaurants. Especially disappointing on your anniversary. Let we not forget the wines, no brands listed, that tasted like watered down crap. The only reason their Facebook says 100% recommended is because they delete any reviews that say otherwise, Trust me and skip this one. Go to Carsons, Corto Limo or Guiseppes for amazing food and service. Guess I should have ordered the hamburger. Live and learn.

A World-Class Dining Experience in the Heart of Georgetown, Kentucky!…read more We've traveled the world and enjoyed some of the finest restaurants across the globe and throughout the United States. Every once in a while, we discover a restaurant that delivers something truly exceptional. Rodney's on Broadway is one of those rare finds! Our visit came after a particularly challenging travel day filled with flight delays and rental car complications. We were exhausted and ready for an outstanding dinner. After discovering Rodney's on OpenTable, we decided to give it a try. What a remarkable decision! From the moment we arrived, the beautifully restored 1840s home welcomed us with its warmth, elegance, and historic charm. The atmosphere immediately set the stage for a wonderful evening. Our server, Nikki, was absolutely extraordinary. Despite a packed restaurant and numerous tables to manage, she was warm, attentive, gracious, and incredibly knowledgeable. She effortlessly recited Chef Rodney's extensive list of mouthwatering specials, followed by an equally impressive selection of desserts and drinks. Her professionalism and genuine hospitality rivaled the finest service we've experienced anywhere in our travels. And then came the food! The lobster bisque was simply the best we've ever tasted. My wife's surf and turf was prepared to perfection, and my trout was absolutely sensational. Every dish demonstrated the care, creativity, and culinary excellence of Chef Rodney and his team. We finished with Chef Rodney's crème brûlée, which was, without question, the finest we've ever enjoyed. An extraordinary ending to an exceptional meal! To our delight, Chef Rodney personally visited our table and took time to speak with us. That personal touch made an already memorable evening even more special. Rodney's on Broadway delivered far more than an outstanding dinner. It transformed an exhausting day into one of the most enjoyable dining experiences of our travels. Exceptional cuisine. Beautiful surroundings. Outstanding hospitality. And a server, Nikki, who truly represents the very best of her profession. If you're visiting Georgetown, Lexington, the Creation Museum, or the Ark Encounter, make Rodney's on Broadway part of your trip. It's worth going out of your way for. Our highest recommendation. We can't wait to return! Dan Lykken Coeur d'Alene, Idaho

I enjoyed the Caesar salad immensely, generously coated with rich dressing and garnished with anchovies. Then I had the lamb chops with mint jelly, cooked and seasoned to perfection.

Located in a mysterious historic building with no signage, I don't think I could locate the club again honestly. The crowd was low key but full of interesting people, mostly upper crust, horse connection types and attorneys. I met some unique folks here over the course of the evening. We had a wonderful time! If you are ever invited to dine here, be sure to accept as you will not be disappointed.

I was so impressed by Wrigley Taproom and Eatery. The menu is small and not printed, instead…read moredisplayed on several blackboards adorning the walls, attractively written with colored chalks. As a "farm-to-table" type of place, many of the items included the name of the farm where the ingredients came from. As it was fairly busy I sat at the bar so as not to tie up a 4-seat table. Soon after sitting a pleasant smoky aroma filled the room and I saw the bartender fiddling with a kitchen torch. Making a Smoked Old Fashioned. So that's what I got. What bourbon, he asked. I wasn't sure so he walked me over to the side of the bar and there were so many! I decided on one arbitrarily, a local craft brand, and he approved. Only a $3 upcharge from the standard one. It was very good, though not as smoky as I expected. The cherry was premium, not the standard bar maraschino. I do like an Old Fashioned, but I sort of wished I noticed the list of specialty cocktails first, which were really unusual and intriguing. Such as the "Garden Gnome": Vodka, yuzu, olive juice, basil, St. Germaine, and gin. For beer lovers, a very large diverse selection, from Kentucky, Ohio, Illinois, Wisconsin, Rhode Island, and Mexico. Most of the entrees are a la carte. Order sides separately if you want them. I decided on tacos, with sides of fries and roasted brussels sprouts. This works here even for a single diner because the sides are small and inexpensive ($4 and $5), though a larger size is also offered. The entrees also were reasonable, most $15. Even the Wagyu Steak was just $29, complete with sides. I've seen prices from $40 to $60 elsewhere. The tacos were Birria, which is a Mexican style of slow cooking meat - short rib in this case - seasoned with adobo. They included mozzarella cheese, cilantro, and pickled onions and cabbage. The flour tortillas were deep-fried and more substantial than usual. Two sauces were offered in tiny bowls. One was thin and was probably the braising liquid from the meat and the other white and speckled with green herbs, sort of like a raita. Very good. The fries, crispy, hand cut, crispy, and seasoned, were also very good. And the roasted brussels sprouts were amazing. The best ever - though I seem to say that often. Sauced relatively heavily in sweet maple glaze, tender, and not at all bitter. I was surprised that there were no seafood items on the menu other than the Smoked Salmon BLT taco. And vegetarians might have a problem here. Not much to choose from other than the Big Ass Pretzel or a green salad. For dessert I had Bourbon Butter Cake, with peaches, Amaro (a peach liqueur), bourbon, and ice cream. Good but it could have used more bourbon and liqueur. And it was warmed and served in a small cast-iron skillet so the ice cream was too melted for my liking. That's my fault. I usually ask for these types of dessert not to be warmed. The great meal was matched by the decor and ambience. Pretty brick walls, decorative chandeliers, and a huge welcoming rainbow flag. Maybe that keeps the MAGAs away. That's fine. They can eat at Chick-fil-A. (Joking. Everybody is welcome here.)

5/5 Stars -- Easily one of the absolute best dining experiences in Kentucky…read more We stumbled upon this gem on Main Street in Corbin, KY today, and it completely blew us away. Located in a beautifully restored 1913 Greyhound bus station, it brings a masterclass in farm-to-table dining with original brick-and-mortar charm. It's authentic, eclectic, and classy without an ounce of pretension--you'll feel just as comfortable rolling in fresh off a lake day as you would celebrating a special occasion. What we ordered (and you need to try): Wagyu Sirloin ($29): We need to talk about this. Served with asparagus and a twice-baked potato for $29, this is easily the single best value dish within a 100-mile radius. Unbelievable quality. Salmon BLT Tacos: Pure perfection, especially after a day on the water. Burrata Cheese & Peach Salad: Absolute fire. Fresh and perfectly balanced. Birria Tacos: Exceptionally rich flavor and executed flawlessly. Blueberry Tiramisu & Limoncello: A shocker of a dessert pairing to end the night--completely knocked it out of the park. The Bar: Drinks are poured with a heavy hand and crafted strong. The open-kitchen concept lets you see the passion this team puts into their craft. Huge thanks to Draven for the warm welcome at the door, and to Laura in the kitchen who pointed us directly toward the must-try dishes and nailed every recommendation. Don't let the reasonable prices fool you--this isn't just "good for Corbin." This is foodie-certified, top-tier dining anywhere in the country. A new absolute favorite. Thank you to the whole team for doing what you do!

After spending the day visiting distilleries, I was ready for something a little different, so my husband suggested we stop by McIntyre & Family Winery. I'm so glad we did. From the moment we walked in, we felt genuinely welcomed. Nikki greeted us, took the time to explain their wines and tasting options, and made us feel right at home. A little while later, the owner, who is also named Nikki, came over to introduce herself. Both of these ladies were incredibly kind, down-to-earth, and passionate about what they do. What was supposed to be a quick stop turned into two wonderful hours of conversation, laughter, and wine tasting. I've visited quite a few wineries over the years, but this one truly stood out. I loved how unique and creative the wines were. They weren't afraid to offer something different, with wines like Corn Cob, Daylily, and Rose Petal Tea. I know some of those might sound unusual, but they're absolutely worth trying with an open mind. My personal favorite was the Blackberry Truffle--it was unlike anything I've ever tasted and, without question, the bottle I couldn't leave without. One thing I also appreciated was that they had beer available for anyone in the group who isn't a wine drinker, making it a place everyone can enjoy. More than anything, what made this visit so memorable wasn't just the wine--it was the people. You can tell there's a lot of heart behind this winery, and that kind of hospitality is something you don't forget. If you ever find yourself in Bardstown, I can't recommend McIntyre & Family Winery enough. It ended up being one of the highlights of our trip, and I already know we'll be back.
