“We've had many celebrations at KPot including my daughter's 21st birthday party with Karaoke in their party room. Every time is absolutely spectacular, and the food is always good.We normally get both the grill and the hot pot for our table, but if my husband and I go without kids or friends, we get just the hot pot. It's so much food!The staff is great and always friendly, and they have cool little robots that help deliver food. The atmosphere is fun, and there's usually k-pop playing at a reasonable level. This place also has great drinks!“

“Texas Roadhouse has been my go-to place for the past seven years, and it never disappoints. Every visit guarantees top-notch service and quality food. This time, celebrating my birthday here was extra special. The staff graciously allowed us to bring in a birthday cake, and even provided us with extra utensils for enjoying it after our meal. My three additional friends, who were first-timers, absolutely loved the rolls, and the staff generously packed some to go for us. I’ll definitely continue coming here with more friends for delicious steaks and laid-back dinners in the future.“

“The fried banana peppers were unreal! I was expecting rings. They were amazing! The brisket was some of the best brisket I have ever had and I’m somewhat of a connoisseur of such things. The staff were super friendly and helpful in making food choices. They had live entertainment. It isn’t far from I75 and there is a very scenic route right back to I75 if you keep going. Definitely stop if you can! Oh, and the Mac and cheese was to die for!“

“This place reminds me of Asheville, Nc. Hipster vibes in a cozy dimly lit environment make for a cute date night, or warm daytime brunch spot. A solid wine list, craft cocktails + N/A options and a modest beer selection paired with tasty bites make County Club an instant classic in my book. My only suggestion would be to make the house burger a double smash patty situation. Otherwise, hearty portions made for happy bellies!“

“First time visiting even though we live nearby. Saw the smoked wings recommended on Reddit and thought we’d go for a late lunch. My husband and I shared wings and pork nachos and everything was excellent. The only thing better than the food was our server, Eric. He knew just how to keep the glasses full and make recommendations, but also allow us our own time and space.I loved that the sauce was at the tables so we could dose as we desired. The atmosphere was relaxing and the music was at a comfortable level. Some places play the music as a feature and that can be overwhelming for me. J Renders was a home run!“

ROlling Red State Bbq Barbeque • $$
Lexington

“On my way to Georgia and got the grumbles. BBQ was on my mind. Yelped what's in the area and Red State pops up. Divey BBQ spots are usually the best and this place didn't disappoint!! People wrote on the walls and ceilings and I loved it. Half slab of ribs, beer cheese grits and fried green tomatoes. Boom. Texas something or ruther bbq sauce. Oh and PEACH bread pudding. Oh and Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale (8.2%) Ribs-perfect smoke. Fall off the bone. Sauce so good I couldn't tell the rib from my finger and bit myself. Beer cheese grits- damn. Just damn. Fried green tomatoes- good but I've had better. Peach Bread Pudding- cmon. Peach cobbler had a baby with bread pudding?? I'm about to lose feeling in my toes. So damn good that I could care less about taking pics. If you're In the area and get the hankering for some meat sweats, stop here. You won't be sorry.“

It was very well priced, easy to order and the staff was very friendly. The ribs were phenomenal along with the baked potato casserole and Carolina sauce. Highly recommend for a UK tailgate or any occasion. We will be back!“

“We’ve found our new favorite steakhouse! First off, the complimentary bread with butter was very tasty. The appetizer was their Parmesan spinach cheese dip. Best appetizer I’ve ever had anywhere. I decided to try the porterhouse steak, adding Parmesan topping with mushrooms. Tastiest steak I’ve ever had! Medium rare of course. Added the lobster tail, and let me tell you, that lobster tail was wayyyy better than Red Lobster! Steakhouse Mac n cheese was VERY good. Their Crispy Brussels sprouts made me like Brussels sprouts for the first time EVER! Wife had Parmesan crusted chicken, which she loved! Great Caesar salad and baked potato.Now for our incredibly AWESOME Server, Meganne! Longhorn was slammed and very busy. Yet she was on top of it!! No sooner would I finish my coke, and she’d have another one ready. She was absolutely a pleasure to talk to, answer our questions about the menu. My wife and I absolutely LOVE her!This was our first time trying Longhorn Steakhouse, but it sure as Hell won’t be our last. Every time we go, we’ll ask for MEGANNE!!OUTSTANDING FOOD. OUTSTANDING SERVICE.LONG LIVE MEGANNE & LONGHORN STEAHOUSE!!!“

“Most recent visit at noon on a Friday with a party of 7. Hostesses were rude/dismissive to my family members who arrived 3 minutes before I did. We went for my Aunt's 90th birthday and it was cool out. She was freezing waiting for us but they wouldn't let her sit at a table to warm up and get comfortable. Fortunately I was there quickly and we were seated. They were busy but not full. Once we were seated our waitress was so friendly and cheerful she made up for the hostesses attitude but that is not the way to treat anyone nevermind our honored elders!(Last year) Great steaks as always. Crowded, as always. Staff handled the volume well and waiting was minimal. We were there at 1:30 on a Saturday. By 2:30 there were a bunch of folks waiting for a table.“

“The food here was 'da bomb'! My sister and I had the pleasure of dining here on 2/24/2024 and we could not have received service any better than that which was bestowed upon us, by the wonderful staff at Sonny's.We conducted what I will call a dry run, so we could get our timing down for the FLUFFY show that we will be attending next month (3/24) at Rupp Arena. Of course we will once again be dining here and partaking of the wonderful food and staff. I am so looking forward to the fantastic tastes coming from Sonny's kitchen. I am a 'rib guy' and the sweet and smokey St Louis ribs were just out of this world GOOD!In looking at my register receipt, our server was Angel. She along with several others, did an absolutely wonderful and outstanding job with our order. We were constantly being checked up on, not only by Angel but with other staff at the restaurant. Everyone wanted to make sure that we had a wonderful experience, and they certainly hit it out of the ballpark. I am so looking forward to my return trip in March.Thank you Sonny's staff, for all that you do!!!!“
