    Brand new back deck with lots of shade!

    For authentic, unique Mexican food with great ambiance, brand new spacious back deck for outdoor seating, and super friendly staff, Don Jockeys is the place to go!

    First time here and we had a wonderful dining experience. The decor blends Mexican roots with Kentucky horse racing. Our waitress was attentive and friendly. And the food? It's not your typical Mexican restaurant. The entrees were delicious and nicely plated.

    This place was Midway's 1st Authetic Mexican restruant, situated by the local rail road. You mush try the handcut 12 ounce Black Angue Ribeye. It is grilled to preferect and was served over carmaelized onoins and poblano peppers and topped off with Don Jockey's signature house made chimichurris sauces. It is served with tortillas and side, I got the Charro Beans. My wife had the Burrito del mar, which is Grilled Grouper, black beans, cabbage, pico de galls all wraped up in a hot flour tortialls and covered with house white wine sauce, with fresh sauteed shrimp and cilantoro. You may want to try the Midway Burrito, and the salas is some of the best around Kentucky. Chips and salsa are included without us having to ask for them. They offer a wide selection of cold draft beer. Very friendy service with some classics and some very creative menu items as well. It is some times quite noisy inside, we will try outside the next time. The best margaritas the desserts are out of this world as well. Don Jockey NEVER disappoints! it is worth the drive.

    Excellent food! Right downtown, so it's pretty easy to find. The queso fundido is delicious! Our server was great, and everyone was very polite. We didn't get a chance to try the mango margaritas this time, but we'll definitely be back!

    Pasta Poblano with added blackened chicken.

    Had lunch with a friend today and it was both of our first time checking out Don Jockey. Our server, Becca, suggested the Pasta Poblano with blackened chicken, and so we both ordered. Delicious. Positively delicious. I did not see this dish on Yelp's menu here. Shout out to Becca for being wonderful!

    Quesadilla Jalisco

    This is not your average hole-in-the-wall Mexican joint. Full bar and upscale menu make this place special. The decor is more modern than most Mexican places, too, with abstract paintings and rustic lighting. My Quesadilla Jalisco arrived at the table on a sizzling platter, decorated with fresh salsa, sour cream and guacamole. I ate every bite. The hubs, who ordered a burrito, WISHED he ordered mine. We actually stopped in there about 11:30 a.m., hoping for huevos rancheros, but I didn't leave disappointed. We didn't drink, but the cocktail menu and tequila selection looked bomb. FYI, the menu says they'll charge you for the chips and salsa.

    Smallest taco I have ever been served!

    Some ppl On the sidewalk said try this place I ask about the tacos. What size I would be embarrassed to serve this to anyone I have never seen taco so small Little pieces of steak Fool me once. Won't be back

    We popped in here after riding the rail cars in Versailes. Everything was fresh and delicious. Juan always has everything top notch. Street corn and tacos are fire
