I must be one of the few who had a bad experience here that would write a review because I don't see why this place is getting more than 2 stars. I went at lunch time, so perhaps the good chef or waitresses were not on duty because I got a charred burger and ordered it medium well, the service... More

My family members that had the filet mignon enjoyed their meal. Not being a meat eater, I had the vegetable lasagna. Not very good. They had local beers to choose from, but the waitress couldn't offer information about them other than repeating their names. When the bill came and we found that they were $9.50 a bottle, we were not... More

This is a unique looking, warm space, and we were excited to have dinner there on a Monday night in May 2013. We were seated in a nice booth and promptly given menus. We'd not even opened them when the server came by to ask, "...if we were ready." We told her we needed a few more minutes. She disappeared... More

Stopped here for lunch the day before Derby while on a quick visit to a couple nearby distilleries. The service was good, place was pretty empty which was a little surprising. Nice location downtown across from the Old State Capitol. The country ham and cheese dip starter is fantastic and something we had not seen before. They do a VERY... More

Stopped in on a Thursday...I had heard about the Bourbon selection. No hostess on Thursdays but once we were seated and recognized things went smoothly. Spotted the senior bar keep and had him recommend a local "special" bourbon....Turns out it was an old favorite of mine....He just handed me the bottle and told me to enjoy! Had the NY Strip... More

Great location near many State buildings and small shopping area. Pretty entrance, friendly staff to greet you as you enter and you see this is a local place to see, be seen, talk politics, etc. Awesome Bourbon selection! probably the largest of any I've seen in Kentucky. Wife ordered the salmon, pesto pasta and it was just as described -... More

Nice location, nice decor, good menu, decent food...if A bit pricey ....but the service....ugh!!! Slow, uncaring, would rather set empty tables, and talk to her buddies, AWOL. This place needs a training program. $30 steaks deserve a wait staff that can do something besides pour on the southern girl poor little me syrup every 15 minutes when she happens to... More

When passing thru Frankfort I often find it difficult to find what I would consider an "upscale" setting to eat. Luckily they have a gem in Serafini. Owned by the same group that has Portofino in Lexington. Italian fusion with a decent wine list I love the goat cheese and apple salad and fried green tomatoes. My father was always... More

Oh my! This is my second visit and I am in love with this food! This is not your home town greasy spoon, this is a quality gourmet restaurant. Everything is the best quality and impressively tasty. I am not too much into the decor of the folk art, but it is tasteful. I had the portobello mushroom for a... More
