Malone’s - Lansdowne

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!

Malone’s is ranked nationally as a top five steakhouse for a reason. You must try the bottomless Lexingtonion salad, unique twist on a garden/chunk salad. Besides an obvious steak, the sushi is not a bad choice either. Service is always exceptional. Be sure to make a reservation!

The Mothers chose Malone’s for dinner this night. The restaurant looks top notch and we enjoyed the atmosphere. Our waiter Andrew was very attentive and attended to our every need. The menu had a great selection to choose from. The steaks were so tender you can cut it with a fork. The seasonings on the steak was perfect! I enjoyed the Moscow Mule and a pixie stick martini. It was my first time having crème brûlée. Our mothers were happy with everything. Awesome food!!!

Believe it or not but I was a first timer to Malone's. Everyone has raved and raved about the quality of food and just the overall experience at this restaurant. Well let me tell you , this place exceeded what I was told. I ordered the 10oz sirloin and it was mouth watering delicious!! The Lexington salad well I'd come there just for that. I can't elaborate on the desserts because the entrees were surprisingly huge. They don't skimp on anything and the waitress we had buddy she was on it!! Not pushyor bothersome, it was like she knew exactly when to come to the table. I will definitely be visiting Malon's again!! 10/10💯

My wife and I had a wonderful time on a last minute date night. Our server, Kyle, was absolutely tremendous. Someone that is intentional and cares about his people. I wish more servers were like, Kyle. Malone’s - you have a good one. Cheers to you, Kyle 🥂

Best steak I ever had and the sides were just as great. I don’t know what they do to that endless salad but you don’t want it to end. The server was attentive and kind. Definitely would go back!

My mother had her first experience at Malone’s, and she thoroughly enjoyed her 8 oz Sirloin and baked potato. Josh, the server, provided exceptional service, which significantly enhanced her overall dining experience. Oh, and she’s not even a water drinker but the quality of the water was so good she ended up drinking 2 glasses.. what a plus!

Food was great. The high top tables are pretty uncomfortable. My son is very tall and just couldn't get comfy. I would definitely wait for a regular booth next time. Our server was great.

Everything from start to finish was five star. It is hands down the best restaurant in Lexington. It has the best filet, salmon, and burger in town but you can’t loose with anything on the menu.

We came to celebrate our one year anniversary. I'd begged my lady to bring me the whole time we've been together because I'd been to one of the other locations, years ago, with my family, and it's my parents favorite restaurant. I didn't realize until we arrived that it was a different location. The bread and butter was pretty good. I ordered a pixie stick martini. That was pretty good. Our salads were great! The crab Rangoon roll wasn't bad, but our steaks came out overcooked. My lady sent hers back immediately. I tried mine. She decided just from watching me take one bite that mine needed sent back, too. So, she filled up on salad waiting for the new steaks to come out. They did bring fresh sides, so we weren't stuck eating the cold ones. However, the new steaks were undercooked (still bleeding). They were supposed to be medium well. I ate that one and it wasn't terrible, but my lady had to send hers back, again to be fired back up. That still didn't help. Part of it was over cooked and the middle still wasn't cooked enough. They were kind enough to comp the entire meal with exception of the alcohol, but it didn't make up for the disappointment of not having an amazing meal for our anniversary.
