I love great customer service and that was awesome! Those salmon croquettes I ate, man I almost started crying. I haven't had some that good since I was a child, and now I'm 48. Both my kid's said their food was great! And the husband and wife team, I think we might be long lost cousins! They were great! The only negative was my wife wasn't with me to enjoy it. But if I'm EVER back in Lexington, I know where to go. I pray God truly bless those folks, and I am looking forward to going there again real soon!

After looking it over we settled for the rib plate and the ribeye steak plate. Sides were mashed potatoes, green beens, cabbage and baked beans. We also received a hoe cake with each meal and purchased the strawberry cake and caramel cake. All food was packaged well and was at correct temperatures. We enjoyed our selection and found everything scrumptious and delicious. Only thing we'd change is thickness of ribeye steak. For $22 it should be thicker. We'd definitely go back. There is seating inside enough for groups. It was pretty quiet with a chill vibe inside.

It came out fresh and very crispy, but it needed more seasoning to really take it there. I will say, the prices are really good and the staff was nice, so overall it was a solid experience.

Despite it being a busy Friday night, my food arrived relatively quickly! I ordered the lamb chop platter with mac and cheese and sweet potato casserole as my two sides. - The lamb chops were a little different from what I'm accustomed to. They were grilled with a good char and coated in a sweet, savory glaze that reminded me of a cross between barbecue and teriyaki sauce. An interesting combination, but I enjoyed the flavor! - The mac and cheese was creamy, cheesy, and still pretty warm when it arrived. Definitely a good choice! - The sweet potato casserole was a pleasant surprise! It had a delicious cinnamon-like flavor with a lightly caramelized crust. I especially liked that it wasn't overly sweet. I ordered the cornbread for $1 - it was very sweet. The top was a bit moist, possibly from being wrapped up for delivery, but it was still tasty once I bit in. All in all, a satisfying meal with generous portions. Everything traveled well, and the quick delivery on a busy Friday evening was appreciated.

Traveling from the South it was a place to be in Lexington, Kentucky. The food we heard was to be…read moregood. And that was from someone who grew up in Lexington, Kentucky. He even made a few recommendations. So, with a group of 6 of us, we went in to give it a try. Good thing we did make a reservation. The place was packed. It is a rustic place. Nothing fancy. Think rural and horse farm area. That is what this is about. Wooden tables and chairs. Nothing fancy. We sat down, got the menus and started to think on what we would have. I went for the recommendation. We also had a mix of pulled pork, brisket, and even pot roast. Very traditional and simple. All meals came with two sides and a low price. Of course, we started with some drinks. One special drink is the ALE 8....This is their version of Ginger Ale. It is served in the bottle (no glass). It is much lighter than the ginger ale we know of. And a bit sweeter. Typical of the region that even serves sweet iced tee with a meal. It is not too cold the ALE 8. But it is something to try. Taking some time the meals came out. Having the one I selected I received the CAIJUN CATFISH. I also selected the Fried Okra and Pickled Beets. The dish also came with hush puppies and corn bread. Very Southern in style here in Kentucky. The fish was good. It was warm and crispy. It had a style that tasted fine and then had a kick once you swallowed it. That was a good touch. The beets were wonderful. The hush puppies nice. Even the cornbread was as expected. The okra was cool and had to be sent back to warm it up. It came out once more but did not have the taste expected with fried okra. As for the pulled pork dishes they were all good. They had a good style for themselves. Each region might have pulled pork, but their sauce and spices vary by each location and chef. This was a bit sweeter but was still fresh. Even the pot roast was looking fine. It was traditional in a brown sauce and seasoned as expected. It came with mashed potatoes (also fresh) and the sides being ordered with this meal. Of note, each day they have different specials on the menu. This time one of them was baked apples (delicious). There was also a special season squash...ideal. Overall, Ramsey's is a place to visit and give it a try. The team was nice (if under staffed) and the price is perfect. It is a low price for a good portion of food. It is something different and worth the stop. I would go back again, but this time try something else. It is a place to explore.

This review is strictly about the customer service, not the food quality. The food itself is great…read more We initially tried to place our order by phone, but when we called, we were asked if we could hold. The employee then set the phone down on the counter, and after waiting over 10 minutes with no response, we gave up. Since we couldn't get through, we placed a delivery order through Grubhub totaling around $100. When the driver arrived, he actually told us to check the order because he didn't believe everything was included. He said he had mentioned it to one of the employees, but she brushed off his concern and insisted everything was there. After checking, we discovered that nearly half of our order was missing. We immediately tried calling the restaurant again, but the same thing happened. We were asked to hold, the phone was apparently set down again, and no one ever came back to the line. Since we couldn't get anyone on the phone, we went to the restaurant in person. Rather than trying to help resolve the issue, we were told it was somehow our fault that we didn't receive all of our food and were instructed to contact Grubhub. Mistakes happen, and missing items can be fixed. The real problem was the lack of customer service, communication, and accountability from the staff. Based on this experience, we will not be returning. If customer service continues at this level, I don't see how this business will retain customers long-term.

While out shopping, the movies, and enjoying a great day in Lexington, the Fat Man and his wife…read moredecided to get a late lunch. We swung into Southern Cookhouse & Bar. Southern Cookhouse features scratch-made dishes using local ingredients, a variety of burgers, pizzas, and classic Southern entrees. I started with the Chicken & Sausage Gumbo because I love soup and all soup-adjacent things. The gumbo had a good, rich flavor from the roux, with subtle heat and a sweet finish. The chicken had a nice flavor, a little saltiness, and it was tender. The Andouille sausage was cooked well and rounded out the flavor profile. The tomatoes and scallions added brightness and crunch. The rice had a few hard pieces, but overall it was good. I do want to mention that I did find a few chicken bones in the dish, just so people are aware. My wife tried the Dunwoody Cobb, made with Grilled chicken breast, boiled eggs, bacon, avocado, tomato, and blue cheese crumbles, with spring mix tossed in Dijon vinaigrette. The lettuce was crunchy and fresh. The bacon had a great salt level, crunch, and crispiness. The avocado added a creamy richness to each bite, while the tomato's acidity cut through the Dijon mustard's sweet and bitter notes. The star of the show was the salty, nutty, creamy blue cheese crumbles, which meshed well with all the other components. The chicken was cooked well and had good flavor, but it was dry. While I avoided it, my wife said the boiled egg was well-cooked and added it to the salad. I had the Nashville Hot chicken, which comes with spicy pickles, coleslaw & mayo on slider rolls with potato salad. The potato salad was mustard-and-mayo-based. The potatoes were soft but still offered some texture. The mustard and mayo balanced each other and added flavor. There were eggs in the potato salad, but they blended into the background and did not stand out. The sweet pickle relish added crunch and texture without being overly sweet. I'm not sure if it was made in-house or from a container; it was good nonetheless. The slider was fresh, soft, and nicely toasted. The slaw was medium-chopped, with a great mayo ratio and a good sweetness, tasting fresh, crunchy, and creamy without being so rich as to drown out the vegetables or the chicken. The pickle was not spicy, but a thick-cut bread-and-butter type with a little sweetness and a velvety, buttery flavor. The chicken was juicy, tender, and cooked well. The Nashville-style spices were mild to medium, just enough to know it was there but not so overpowering that it was all you tasted. It was not overly oily either, which often plagues sandwiches of this type. The entire sandwich worked well together. Southern Cookhouse has a full menu, but some items do rotate or are seasonal. The bar is fully stocked, offering draft beer, tea, and soft drinks. They offer counter ordering, and the staff is very friendly. The Fat Man says that Southern Cookhouse & Bar is Fat Man Approved with 2 chins.
