Comfort food heaven. The portions are very generous and we usually need a to go container. The prices are fair and the wait staff generally are attentive. I love that we can get a delicious breakfast all day, every day.

Delicious American foods, perfectly prepared and reasonably priced . A large variety of ethnic foods are available, and service is excellent.

Service was slow. Food was greasy and typical home cooking. Don't go if you are on a diet as the calories in the food I am sure are really high. Seating was tight. We were a party of 8 that I will say they were able to seat us straight away but I was disappointed in the food. I will... More

Ramsey's is a local favorite chain that offers Blue Grass food - a cross between Southern and Country dishes. Ask for Corn Oysters (not on the menu), slightly greasy cornmeal cakes made with creamed corn, for an example of the cuisine. Fresh vegetables are especially good during early fall "Harvest Daze",

Ramsey's has several locations in the area and the food is always great. Definitely home cooking at it's best in Lexington with many of Ramsey's signature specialties and topped off with Missy's pies! Service is always the very best.

I love the omelettes. The other food this place serves is just not my cup of tea, but if calories are not important to you, try the disgusting hot brown dish. Kentuckians love it, ugh. Stick to breakfast and you will be happy.

we've been recommended to go there since it was a Sunday night and most of the other places were closed. The atmosphere was nice, the menu is rich of local dishes. We had a selection of veggie sides and a chicken breast BBQ. They were both good for the price and the place - considering it's a diner. The service... More

It was a real treat to enjoy a Kentucky Hot Brown on my recent trip back to visit family in Kentucky. It had been almost a year since my last trip home, and I was glad to spend a nice lunch here. Started off with potato skins that were wonderful!
