- SscottVIPLas Vegas •16 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoMy wife, son, daughter-in-law and I enjoyed a delicious breakfast at OBC on a snowy Sunday morning. The roads weren't great, but we pushed through and were rewarded with fabulous food and delicious cocktails. Our server, Steven, was excellent. We ordered Creme Brulee French Toast, a breakfast burrito, a Belgian Waffle, and a full breakfast, (can't remember what that was called). No complaints! We hope to return the next time we are in the area.More infoOBC KitchenPrice: Expensive• American• Lexington•4.9
- BBrookeAsheville / Western North Carolina •11 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoI went here for my sister in laws birthday dinner and it was a wonderful experience. Our server was very attentive and kind. The restaurant already knew it was my sister in laws birthday because of the note I put on OpenTable when I booked it and brought her a free dessert. Our food was absolutely delicious. I had their fried green tomatoes as an appetizer and they were to die for. I had their halibut for an entree and it was the best I’ve had. Such an overall great experience.More infoMerrick InnPrice: Expensive• Contemporary Southern• Lexington•4.7
- JJ.C.Central Kentucky •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoMalone's staff long has put a priority on exemplary service. Supervisors know customers have high expectations of the restaurant, it's good, and the service workers provide. Our visit on Feb. 15 met, or exceeded, any expectations we had going in. Our main server, Caroline, was highly attentive and service-oriented, even though she was apparently having to double at the bar. Support staff who assisted in serving us also were superbly friendly and helpful. Simply put, our meal, and our entire experience at Malone's, could not have been better!More infoMalone’s - LansdownePrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Lexington•4.8

Hailey was our server and she had the best personality and we wanted for nothing, We started with their amazing Old Fashioned which are always made perfectly.

- TTroyCentral Kentucky •1 review5.0Dined 6 days agoWe were promptly seated in a great booth for our late-evening anniversary dinner. All of the staff members were very professional. The restaurant environment was just right...not too quiet (stuffy) and not too noisy. Our server handled everything perfectly. Most importantly, the food was outstanding. Definitely one of the best steaks I've had anywhere, along with delicious baked potato and onion straws. I highly recommend Tony's and will come back again for another excellent experience soon.More infoTony's of LexingtonPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Lexington•4.8
