I found this charming little bistro in Murray KY and it did not disappoint. I wanted some ethnic food while in Kentucky and that can be tricky. This little gem did the trick. Wonderful parang with basmati rice and I had a lamb gyro which is the tastiest lamb gyro I have ever eaten. Both dishes were fabulous and so flavorful. Give it a try!

A couple of my favorites.

Willow Bistro is a gem of a restaurant. Located on Murray State University campus. Such a variety of selections. Great service.

One of my must go see places in this area. The restaurant's food was fresh and perfection. 5 stars. The guacamole appetizer was the best ever! I wanted to try the green curry but opted for the lamb and Greek dish with basmati rice. It was nice to get away from everything and visit this dreamy restaurant.

Cute little Bistro next to Murray State Collage. They have a good variety on the menu. We had lamb gyros and I also had the lamb soup. Both were delicious. Also they feature specials that change. If you are in the Murray area, please give them a try, you'll be glad you did.

The market plate with chicken and apricot chutney

I've been going here for four years and since the first time I ate here, it's been my favorite restaurant. It's a small sit down place to eat and has good service. I've tried many dishes and they're all amazing. I just can't get past the market plate. It's my favorite dish. The chicken is really nice and the rice is wonderful. It typically comes with tomatoes, but I'm allergic so no tomatoes. I highly recommend.

Met up with family while in town, we were also here a few years back, I don't know if it's under…read morenew management or what but the food was much better last time than this time. With all of chaos of catching up, I didn't get pictures. We ordered some burritos, chimichangas and fajitas and the only thing that was good was the fajitas. The chimichanga was okay other than it laid in the beans which were extremely watery and I don't like beans but my spouse normally eats those, however since they were under my chimichanga he couldn't. I ended up opening my chimichanga and eating the chicken out of it. Next time we are in town we will try the other Mexican place. The service itself was good, they did take back the meals that were really messed up and replaced with new. It was pretty loud in there but that was fine.

Very disappointed with not only the food but the customer service of the employees and the owner…read more Ordered over $40 of food to go picked it up and once we got home and started to eat. The bowl my wife got called the Molcajete... the steak was over done in it and the onions were VERY underdone. So my wife called the store back and told them the issue and the lady on phone had owner come to phone. The owner proceeded to to be rude and did not seem to care until I got on phone and became rude with him! Once I got very stern and rude he Finally agreed to fix what he should have fixed in the first place without a fight as a business owner! once picked up replacement the food that we complained about being under cooked was cooked to a crisp! Almost like a smart remark! This will be the last time we go back! La casino is right across town and the quality is way better as well as prices and customer services! Hands down shitty experience!
