I have been to this restaurant several times over the past year and I am always impressed. They have great home-cooked food with reasonable prices. Also, the building is beautiful. More

We searched all over cave city for a place for home cooking. We ended up in Elizabethtown and found this gem. Country fried steak, hot browns, fried squash, chicken and dumplings, and so much more. It took my husband and I down memory lane visiting family in southern Kentucky. True comfort food at its best!!! The staff was wonderful and... More

We heard good things about here so decided to try it out. I had the lunch daily special, salmon cakes, got 2 cakes. They were so dry i swear they had sawdust in them and they were suppose to be the fresh daily special. Everything else was smothered in cheese or way too sweet to eat. It is an old... More

On a solo trip back from Nashville, I decided to stop in Elizabethtown for supper. I found this, what seemed to be, a beautiful home, but is actually a great find in E-Town! Such a cozy restaurant! You feel like part of the family when dining in this establishment. Great service and the food was delicious. I had roast beef,... More

We were visiting our son who is stationed at Ft Knox and decided to look around Elizabethtown while he was a work. He recommended this restaurant for lunch. The day we were there, the lunch special was chicken and dumplings. The dumplings were very good. Very close to the dumplings my grandmother used to make. The waitress was very nice... More

Stopped by the Back Home Restaurant today during the Cruisin' the Heartland Festival; nice to get out of the heat and into this air-conditioned historic building converted into a homey restaurant. This place is a feast for the eyes as well as the stomach. Nostalgic crafts, gifts, homemade candies and fudge are offered in the lobby and upstairs areas. The... More

I'd heard good things about the place and was enticed to stop in by the $5 lunch special. Sadly, that was for a bowl of soup beans and a cornbread muffin. Thats a ripoff. Surveying the tiny bowl, I knew I wouldn't full up on that so I had a burger. It was fine, but nothing special. It had one... More

We were traveling a couple weeks ago near the Bardstown area and based on the reviews we decided to make this a stop on our list. We were AMAZED! The food was INCREDIBLE, the staff was super friendly and the craft store area was perfect for my taste! Even the decor and atmosphere was fun to look at. We each... More
