"Everyone in Kentucky knows Malone’s and how it is one of the most premium restaurants to go to. They mainly take reservations, however, so make sure to book ahead of time! The dishes are pricy, but the food is consistently delicious and the portions are large! My fiancé has taken me here on many date nights, and I’ve brought him here for his birthdays! The restaurant is beautifully laid out with both regular and booth seating options, fancy lighting, two revolving doors to both enter and exit, and a nice bar. This location is directly connected to its sister restaurant, OBC, which offers more casual faire. Our servers were both kind, attentive, and knowledgeable. I can tell they are at the top of their game working at a place as lovely as this! For appetizers, they give you a piping hot, large serving of bread and butter, which was good both times. We also got the Crab Dip on one of our visits, which was super creamy and delicious for dipping. We have also gotten their salads, the Lexingtonian and the Caesar, both which were fresh and satisfying. Each time for my main I have gotten the Chicken Linguini. The white wine butter rosemary sauce is seriously otherworldly and one of the BEST dishes I have ever had in my life, PERIOD. The chicken was super tender and the pasta was a perfect al dente. My fiancé got their filet mignon three ways and thoroughly enjoyed it. I bought the $115 Wagyu Ribeye steak for my fiancé for his birthday, and it was one of the best steaks he’s ever had. He described it as “meat butter” as every piece just melted in his mouth. The portion was also large, 16. oz! I had to make sure he didn’t go into a food coma! For dessert, we have gotten their chocolate chip cookie (a large, shareable cookie that comes with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top, and chocolate and caramel drizzle), which was melt-in-your-mouth scrumptious. It was free on my fiancé’s birthday! On our second visit I got their cheesecake with raspberry jam, and that was heaven! This place is THE spot for your fancy nights out with friends, family, and partners. I know we will be coming back here soon for more!"
