    Rodney's on Broadway was sublime! The house was beautiful and the staff was so friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and specials. I wanted an outstanding dining experience for my Husband's milestone birthday. They had a Birthday card for him at the table and even drizzled “60” with balsamic vinegar in the olive oil they brought to the table for bread dipping. Our server Stacy was nothing short of amazing and although I did not get her name, the hostess was equally fabulous, making certain our glasses were always full and we were always attended to. On a side note, even though we had Birthday cake at home, we could not resist the carrot cake with Chef Rodney’s caramel sauce that was so highly recommended by both our server and hostess (Served with a candle and the Happy Birthday song!). I’m glad we didn’t pass on this delicious piece of art. As if our experience wasn’t incredible enough, Chef Rodney came out to speak with us about our meal and wish my Husband a happy birthday. Rodney's on Broadway gets our highest recommendation. It was an outstanding experience.

    The best restaurant in Lexington isn't actually in Lexington. Rodney's on Broadway is in Georgetown and has always been nothing short of superb! Each time we've dined there it has been wonderful. Rodney knows what he's doing and always has something new and exciting. Cannot recommend it enough!

    I’ve lived in Lex for 2 years and eaten at all the best restaurants - and Rodney’s is simply the best. Hands down. If there is a better dish than their duck dish, I haven’t had it. I love duck and I judge restaurants by how well they make it, because it’s difficult to make right. Chef Rodney makes the best duck anywhere. But let me add, everything else is also outstanding. The steaks are magnificent. Rodney is a culinary savant. Enjoy.

    We’ve started to eat at Rodney’s multiple times and opted to go to Malones or Jeff Ruby’s instead. The steak I had last was better than I’ve had at either. We went for our 17th anniversary and had a great time.

    The food, ambience, service and location were fantastic! My girlfriend’s steak was undercooked a bit. They made it right! The waitress was just great! The food was just awesome! Everything, with no exception. The best restaurant we have been to in 6 years in the area! I’m still full. Make a reservation. If you don’t like it, get your leftovers and send them to me. Enjoy! You will!

    We have been to Rodney’s at least 4 times now. Just a great place to eat. The food is always top tier. The service is always amazing and we love the ambiance. It’s the small things as well. It was my wife’s birthday. They had a birthday card waiting at our table with a personal message and signed by the whole staff. What more could you ask for.

    First time dining at Rodney's on Broadway. Humus board was absolutely outstanding. My wife said the clam chowder was the best she's ever had . . . and she's from Massachusetts! She enjoyed lamb chops, while chose a sirloin steak. Cocktails and wine were wonderful. Carrot cake with fruit and whipped cream topped off the feast. Pricey, but worth it.

    First timer! The food was excellent. Very much a special occasion stop. We will definitely keep it on our list. Especially as we live right here in town and drive time is minimal. Both of us had the filet mid rare , which was perfect. We tried two of the suggested sauces which were an extra charge. They were good but the beef was cooked to perfection so would not do that again. The vegetable medley was excellent although there could have been more. We tried the Mac and cheese and it was fantastic. We finished with coffee and the cream brûlée which was simply amazing. We also had the featured appetizer, smoked bacon with bacon tomato jam. It was very good but the jam was not a great compliment to the bacon. Each alone were very tasty. Dinner for two with a side, an extra side an appetizer and dessert and coffee along with water and complimentary bread was 227.00. Again a great place to celebrate a special occasion.

    My wife and I had the most amazing dinner for our Anniversary! Our server was fantastic and provided so many great recommendations. Our steaks were cooked perfectly and seasoned with the most flavorful seasoning I’ve ever had on a steak; it was so good I purchased some to take home! I noticed reviews about the limited menu and so I checked it out online first and have to say it was still extensive and not lacking in options. When we inquired about it with our server she told us it was only for a few weeks (during the slower time) and they would be back to the normal menu in a couple days. All of that being said we enjoyed a shrimp cocktail special with the most delicious cocktail sauce , a delightful strawberry spinach salad with an amazing poppy seed dressing, the aforementioned steaks (filet and NY strip) and we had carrot cake and pistachio ice cream (both homemade) for dessert. Our cocktails were perfect. The bartender even came by to make sure my wife liked her drink (she had ordered a little off menu) which she LOVED. All in all Rodney’s on Broadway definitely will be one of our new go to restaurants in the future. The food, drinks and the service (best I’ve ever had) along with the ambiance are all fantastic and well worth the 5 star rating!

    Those upscaled restaurants are always going to have good food. Of course it comes down to taste. My Caprese Chicken was hot (and this how I like my food) and delicious and my wife's lamb ribs were also great. The hostess (Nikki I believe) was wonderful and very helpful. Weordered Brulee which was so light as if you are eating in a dream. i would recommend to make it a little bit heavier to bring customers to reality. The level of noise was high, but doesn't bother you (my wife complained) but it's expected for a place with such an area. We discovered there were a terrace which I wish we sat out. Maybe next time!

    Once again Chef Rodney and his crew have knocked it out of the park! My date and I started with the hummus board, which was spectacular, the Caprese salad and mushroom soup. I had the feature of the evening (butcher cut NY Strip with a mushroom sauce) which was prepared perfectly; my date had the Duck (which he claimed was AMAZING) and we finished with carrot cake and pistachio ice cream. They are running a slightly scaled down menu for summer but there was still plenty of options to choose from and the dinner features were extensive. I absolutely love this restaurant and can’t say enough times how phenomenal it always is. The staff is friendly and efficient, the drinks were creative and delicious and the food is comforting, flavorful and beyond compare. I look forward to being in KY just so I can come to Rodney’s.
