Restaurants near University of Kentucky Arboretum

Our meals were cooked to perfection. Service was outstanding.

We chose Carson's on Main to celebrate our 48th wedding anniversary The service and food were excellent, as always. We especially enjoyed the complimentary champagne we were given. Love this place! Our server Hannah was great as well as the bartender ( I THINK his name was Matt) and the entrees were delicious.

This place did not disappoint from our first bite of the amazing yeast roll to the last bite of our entrees (I had the halibut and hubby had the shrimp gnocchi.). The Thai calamari was also out of this world. We will be looking for a reason to come back to Lexington just so we can eat here again. Oh, and the bourbon collection was amazing too!

As usual we were taken care of in JR style! We both had the 14 ounce sirloin (blackened) with a huge salad. Our steaks were delicious and cooked perfectly. We went for lunch so no sushi nor baked potato on that menu. Their warm wonderful bread, steak and salad was more than enough to satisfy! We actually brought home leftovers. We plan to go again next week for the prime rib sandwich while the lunch hours are offered.

We took an old nursing colleague of mine from Louisville to dinner last evening at the Merrick Inn.,what a lovely dinner we had. We each got the pork chop dinner and my husband got the halibut fish special. Our chops were seasoned to perfection and cooked exactly as we had requested. We all got different sides and shared among each other. The ambiance was perfect, noise level a little challenging. Our waiter was awesome. He relayed each of our orders perfectly and his attention to detail was truly impressive.
