    Oreo milkshake, fried pickles and chicken sandwich
    Anthony W.

    Walking in I had higher expectations based on the yelp reviews for the food. The staff was wonderful and clearly things are made to order, but the food was ridiculously salty and the fried pickles tasted like nothing but salt. The pickles flavor barely overcomes the salty batter. The chicken in the chicken sandwich did seem to be a freshly fried breast; but again it was very very very salty. The bun was dripping with their mayonnaise sauce - just excessive. While a cute little place, not really worth the stop. At least the shake is made in house and helped cut the salty burn in my mouth!

    Chicken and waffles
    Andrew S.

    Food was good tenders are much smaller than they use to be but service is always good. Tried chicken and waffles today because it was Wednesday $5.99 for waffle 3 tenders and a drink is a great deal.

    4 pc classic meal.

    Stopped in to check it out since I was in Pikeville for work. A short walk from the hotel. Had a few other options, but decided to give it a try. The restaurant was clean, well lit (not blinding bright, but not so dark you can't see what's in front of you) Person at the counter was friendly, took my order and I sat down. in a short time, matter of 7-8 minutes, my food was delivered to me. Chicken pieces were decent sized. About 4-5 inches long. Hot, fresh form the fryer. French fries were plentiful and also very hot. Also came with two slices of Toast. I picked the Mango Habenero sauce for dipping. A touch of sweetness from the Mango and some zing from the peppers. The chicken had good flavor, but the pieces were not as Big as a couple of chains, Canes, for example. But, still good flavor. Price was around $8 for the 4 pc meal and a drink. All in all, it was good and worth the walk and the money.

    Hungry plate with Mac n cheese
    David G.

    I was in Pikeville for a couple nights and staying at the Hampton Inn, and wanted to find a place within walking distance to eat. I lucked out and found a restaurant I'd never heard of before less than a mile away, and I'm so glad I tried it. For my family of four, I ordered two hungry plates and an additional side. It was more than enough food for the four of us. The chicken tenders are excellent, and each plate comes with two dipping sauces. We ordered the Korean BBQ, ranch, honey mustard, and Slim sauces. I liked all of them, and it really comes down to personal preference. They have a ton of sauces to choose from, which I think is awesome. So much better than the one sauce for all, a la Cane's. One reason I liked Slim Chickens so much better than other tender restaurants is because they have so many more excellent sides. We tried the fries, mac n cheese, and fried okra. All were pretty good, but I'm always in for fried okra, and it definitely didn't disappoint. If they had Slim's in Lexington, I'd be there all the time. Service is wonderful and you'll love having all the choices they offer. If it's nice out, I highly recommend the outdoor seating. It's kinda close to the road but most of the time you won't even notice. Pleasant atmosphere out there. I'm giving the place two thumbs up. Way up.

    Love slim chickens. I have had it in several Location. After I placed my order I was standing at the counter watching the kitchen and watch the cook with his rubber gloves on reach into the sauce bucket after shaken a customers order and feed his face with his glove hands and reach back into the bucket to put their order in the go container. I was Disgusted for all the years that I have been in the food industry most would've been fired on the spot. With what looked like the manager next to him and two other kitchen help no one said a word I am not from Pikeville but I hope the rest of the restaurant don't do this as well

    Cayenne Ranch chicken sandwich. Delicious

    Pricey. Sandwiches mediocre especially with a Chic-Fil-E less than a mile away. Wings not as large as BWW's, just across the river.

    Ok... alright... South Charleston, W. Va. I see what you're doing…read more Was passing through on my way home to SC and I yelped "soul food - Charleston, WV" and this popped up. Since I really only eat one big meal a day I was hoping this'd do. I gave it a shot. Had to park behind the restaurant because I didn't see any parking up front. Nice place. Looks like at night it could be a jumping little spot for drinks. I ordered something simple, fried chicken with yams, greens, and Mac. Great choice! Food was hot and tasty. Good portions too at a decent price. I only had water. If I come back up here I'd hit it again. It's not in the cut but across the river. Good food and good people.

The chicken was good, but I expected more seasoning. The greens&yams were phenomenal. The rolls seemed small and store bought, so I wasn't thrilled about that. So all in all, it was pretty good, but I wouldn't say excellent. The waitress was super sweet, and they had a station playing on TV where MJ was still black, so that ups the score for me! The only other complaint I had was that they didn't have grits, and that's what I was really wanting that day. Had to go get them from my usual place after I left. Oh, and the inside of the restaurant was really clean too, which I appreciate. As everyone on here has pointed out, it is a black owned business, so go eat some good food.. and if you have a problem, tell someone, I'm sure they'd accommodate, they seem like good folks.

From the moment you walk through the doors on North Front Street, you're greeted with genuine Appalachian hospitality--warm, unpretentious, and welcoming in the best possible way. The food is classic comfort done right. Portions are generous, flavors are bold, and everything tastes like it was made with care rather than rushed out of a kitchen. The home-style cooking is the real star here--savory meats, perfectly cooked sides, and that unmistakable "down-home" flavor that keeps locals coming back and first-timers planning their return before they've even paid the bill. Nothing feels overworked or trendy--just honest, satisfying food that hits the spot every time. The wait staff and service at Billy Ray's is consistently friendly and attentive without being intrusive. The staff treats you like a regular, even if it's your first visit, and that personal touch elevates the entire dining experience. You never feel rushed, and questions about the menu are met with enthusiasm and helpful recommendations. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable, making it ideal for families, friends, or a casual lunch stop while passing through town. It's clean, well-kept, and full of local character--exactly what you want in a small-town restaurant. If you're in Prestonsburg and want a meal that's filling, flavorful, and genuinely satisfying, Billy Ray's Restaurant is a must-visit. This is Eastern Kentucky dining at its finest--simple, hearty, and done with heart . Just a shame we couldn't fit in any of the delicious cakes! Next time! Thanks for a wonderful Diner experience.

The main building is a lovely and spacious modern inn that balances comfort and traditional elements with open and wide modern floor plans and bright spaces in a pleasing way while retaining the cozy fireplace experiences of more traditional settings. A first floor outdoor veranda opposite the main entrance stretches the length of the main building overlooking the well groomed hillside vineyards and a stocked, picturesque fishing pond. The hillside stretches up the horizon and with the westward facing veranda, offers stunning sunset views along with wine service. Below is a patio off the main restaurant and bar offering even more seating around fire pits with couches and Adirondack chairs with appetizer and drinks available for the bar/restaurant. We toured a king 2 room suite with a large sitting area separated from an equally large and well appointed sleeping area with a private large balcony that also faced the western sunset over the vineyards. The rooms were described as more akin to an apartment whereas the 9 onsite yurts accommodations were described more akin to a condo, described as pet friendly and a quiet community. Behind the yurts is a large barn structure that serves as a tasting room with an outdoor seating area with Edison lights strung around the overhang creating a warm space to enjoy the vineyards end production, currently nine wine vintages. Beside the main building are two much larger shaped yurt structures housing a full fitness center and a spa as will as an outdoor pool. We dined at Hickory for dinner and enjoyed their farm to table, Appalachia oriented menus. That will be a separate review but it hits 10/10 for hospitality, service, presentation and food excellence. We plan a fall trip for an overnight stay when the vineyards come in just before harvest to get the full experience! Also, we initially had a glass of their Chardonnay and being pleased with this, we opted to enjoy a bottle with dinner even though the wine list had equally excellent choices from familiar vineyards. This is highly recommended!

We didn't want to make a scene or think we were trying to be difficult because it wasn't just one thing he may be able to fix...it was all terrible. Skip a meal and go for the atmosphere with drinks or apps. Still a great ambience, but it's just overpriced. Ribs were chewy, like they were boiled and just seared for some char marks. The Bolognare tasted one step up from sphagetti-os with just noodles and vodka sauce. Their star has always been their carrots side dish. Others warned us, but we won't be back for a lunch/dinner. Breakfast buffet was good.
