    I had the pleasure of trying Limestone Bar & Grill in Mt. Vernon, and it exceeded every expectation. This is the kind of place that reminds you why small-town restaurants are so special. The moment I walked in, I loved the setup--bright, open dining areas with huge windows overlooking the hills. It has a relaxed, down-to-earth vibe but still feels clean, organized, and welcoming. Perfect spot to sit back and enjoy a good meal without feeling rushed. I ordered the chicken tenders with onion rings and green beans, and you can truly taste the homemade quality. The chicken was tender and flavorful, the onion rings were perfectly crispy, and the green beans had that classic Kentucky taste with bacon and onions. My dining partner got the BLT with homemade chips, and the portion was impressive--thick-cut bacon, fresh veggies, and crunchy chips that were obviously made in-house. The staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely kind. You can tell they care about their customers and take pride in what they do. If you're anywhere near Mt. Vernon or passing through on a trip, make time to stop here. It's one of those local spots where the food is great, the views are beautiful, and the service makes you want to come back again. Highly recommend!

    1/4 lb Limestone burger with fries

    Needed to stop and grab lunch. Did not want fast food. Started with a side salad. Iceberg lettuce was fresh & crispy, cherry tomatoes were nice. Croutons tasted homemade. Burger options looked great. I ordered a 1/4 lb Limestone burger and my husband had a 1/2 lb limestone burger. Buns were toasted, burger was served fresh & hot. Fries were hot & crispy. Not quite a 5Guys burger but much better than a fast food burger!! Our server was kind and made great recommendations.

    Upon entering I was greeted and sat at a table with a nice view. Service here was friendly and accommodating, I ordered the lunch special and an unsweetened tea. The coleslaw was brought out and surprised me with how delicious and crisp it was. I don't usually like coleslaw, but I devoured this. The unsweetened tea was lacking, actually, it tastes of mold. Unfortunately, the taste didn't go away even when I ordered a sprite. However, the tenderloin sandwich was fried and tasty. I enjoyed the fries which were crispy and hot. The food is 5 but the drinks need some addressing, I'd suggest order something in a bottle.

    Chopped steak and fried okra

    Stopped for lunch today. Food was ok. Better than the fast food places around. It took a while to get our food. Ordered the blue cheese black and blue burger. It came with just meat and blue cheese dressing on it. It was just ok. Onion rings were homemade, crunchy and tasty. Another person in our group got the chopped steak. It was a large hamburger patty with mushrooms and gravy. He said it was good.

    My BLT with barely any bacon.

    This restaurant needs to hirer friendlier staff who provide better service and bus the tables. We waited more than 40 minutes for BLT sandwiches. Our unpleasant waitress kept saying they had a big party. But staff was sitting at a table up front not doing anything. No one bothered to bus the tables next to us that were dirty when we got there. Save yourself the frustration and get fast food. I'm giving one star because there isn't anything lower. The BLT sandwiches had less than a piece of bacon on them and no mayo. I am shocked that anyone recommends this restaurant.

    Chicken Wings were hot and delicious!

    Came here for dinner with some friends, and tried the hillbilly tacos. I love tacos. These tacos were very different from anything I had ever had, and I wasn't as crazy about them. They are made with cornbread cakes as the tortilla and topped with pulled pork, coleslaw, barbecue sauce. I didn't even attempt to pick them up, I just ate them with a fork, and didn't eat much of the cornbread cakes but I did eat the pulled pork and the coleslaw and the cornbread that was below the pulled pork. They were good, but not my favorite. Probably wouldn't get them again. We got an order of mild chicken wings for the table, and they were hot and delicious! Both of my friends had the grilled chicken with rice, and they both seem very happy with their choice and it looked good. Lots of parking, and great service.

    We travel through Kentucky often on 75 and always try to stop here. Good home cooked food and good prices.

    Catfish special -- really delicious and appreciated that it wasn't a cornmeal batter

    We found another jewel as we travel thru Kentucky and Tennessee, the Limestone Grill. They have an extensive menu of home style favorites. We started with the cheesy cauliflower with chipotle ranch and it was delicious but a huge helping. We didn't do it justice. I decided on the chef salad and it didn't disappoint but again, huge portion. The hubby did the special which was catfish with peas (his favorite) and real mashed potatoes (I sampled and they were wonderfully buttery). We don't get south of Lexington often which is disappointing as there were several other items on the menu that I'd like to sample. I would be remiss not to give Rhonda a shout out. She took excellent care of us. I, highly, recommend a stop if you are in the area.

    Service was good and the people were friendly. The prices are good, but the food is not. The place isn't very clean, either.

The pulled pork in my Sweet Carolina BBQ sandwich had the look and taste of long, slow cooking. Lots of color on the "bark", with a balanced mix of coarse chopped pieces and thinner shreds. I thought it slightly dry and maybe not as much smoke flavor as I'd like, but that could be the pitmaster's preference. Any dryness was fixed by adding some of the 4 available house-made sauces. I tried all and decided on the spicy barbecue. My meal arrived quickly, no more than 5 minutes at most. The sandwich comes with 1 side. I chose the potato salad, which was very good: mustardy and tangy with the potatoes "al dente." Two sizes were available, regular and large. I thought the regular was sufficient and a good deal at $11.50 with the side. The coleslaw was very small as usual, but, as it was intended to be put into the sandwich for the Sweet Carolina, was sufficient, and good. The menu also has burgers, ribs, wings, and some interesting sounding combination sandwiches. Like Fried Bologna BLT. And brisket. Wish I could have tried that. My only complaint is the menu is very sandwich-oriented. No way to order a plate: a meat and 2 sides, and maybe a slice of cornbread (actually hoe cakes here instead). Larger combo are available, like the Smoky B Sampler with ribs, 2 additional meats, garlic toast, and a side (just 1). Way too much for one person, and with just 1 side, not ideal for sharing either. Many interesting appetizers and small bites, including corn nuggets, fried pickles and green tomatoes, cheese curds with marinara. The inside was clean, a generic modern building. Outside tables were not set up - was it just too hot to sit outdoors? The floor could use some fixing up: it looked like they had scraped off carpeting and left the glue. Strange. Lots of TVs tuned to various sports, the sound turned off. Music playing at a medium level which I enjoyed. Very hard rock. How hard? 9.5 on the Mohs scale. And then all of a sudden it changed to Taylor Swift. That was jarring but ok. I like her too. Clientele at this midday hour seemed to be mostly working men on lunch break. I think I was the only one without blue jeans and a baseball cap. When I got up to pay at the counter my waitress reminded me that my drink (Coke) comes with a free refill in a go cup. I didn't really want more but she encouraged me so I was going to get ice water. I pressed the wrong button on the machine and got lemonade instead. Oh well, that's fine too.
