Original menu dishes include the classic Bristol Burger and aged, charbroiled New York Strip steak as well as new favorites like Pork Dijonnaise and Theresa’s Sweet Chili Linguine. We source ingredients from local farmers. Certified Bourbon Stewards are on staff to guide diners on selection of Kentucky’s native spirit.

    Valentine dinner was a great experience. The staff was very kind and attentive to us. The food was delicious and the drinks were also great. She had the fried chicken with skillet potatoes and gritz and I had the NY strip and asparagus. We would recommend and will be returning.

    Food was replenished often. The earlier you go the quieter it will be, as more people begin to arrive around 11:30. The staff was friendly.
