Holly Hill Inn

My husband and I had dinner here for an anniversary. Definitely a place to go for special occassions or if you just enjoy great food and great service! The food was excellent and different enough to stand out from other places. My husband had the lamb, and it was delicious. The menu changes monthly, so check out their website to see what they're serving. Although a little pricey, it was definitely worth it! And I loved the prix fixe menu. We ordered 3 courses, and we were pleasantly full afterwards. Best restaurant we've been to so far in the area! Pros: Service, Food, Ambience Cons: Location more

Wow. Went to Holly Hill with no particular expectations other than some good, local fare. Boy, was I wrong. Beautifully set in Midway, my wife and I enjoyed a two hour dinner with some of the best food I have ever had in this part of the country. Dishes looked as beautiful as they tasted. Only disappointment was the dim lighting. A definite place to take someone you want to impress! more

Owned and operated by a husband (sommelier) & wife (chef) team, Holly Hill Inn is a charming restaurant in Midway KY (about 20 min drive from Lexington). It is by far the best place I have eaten since moving to Lexington 6 years ago (and one of the best places I have eaten in ever). The menu changes monthly and most dishes are created with fresh local ingredients. For a fixed price of $35 you get an appetizer, soup or salad, main dish, and dessert. An outstanding value considering the quality of the food. They also have a fabulous wine list. However, I have found it best to opt for the wine pairings ($20) - you will get 3 glasses of wine, each paired with the menu items you have selected. Service is excellent despite the loss of waiter Patrick and hostess Angela. Pros: amazing food, friendly staff, excellent value Cons: you park on grass more

If the proprietor sticks to what she know best, the food, ambiance, service, are excellent. With one exception (Bangkok in the Bluegrass), our experiences here have been stellar. I would advise that callers check the menu offerings before making a reservation. If the menu is offering items of local/continental fare, you will not be disappointed. Tip: Patrick is the waiter of choice. more

Gracious hostess and host, fabulous food and wine, beautiful surroundings. It could not get much better. The best of the Bluegrass, by far, and the price is very modest. And it just seems to be getting better and better. more
