Great service, good food, low prices!…read more Set in a repurposed gas station, The Dog Pound is a nice spot to grab some good BBQ in Cave City. It may be your only spot, but that's not a knock on it. It was a pleasant August evening, so we grabbed a booth outside beneath the canopy that used to shelter drivers gassing up. The menu is straightforward. I was shocked at how low the prices are, particularly for the quality. The pulled port was good, but the sides is where it's at! Don't miss the cowboy beans which were fantastic! The potato salad was unique in that it let the eggs flavor come through. Plus, they have Ski! Service took maybe five minutes from our order to our table. Also, friendly and helpful! Very impressed!

The staff is super friendly and jumped up to assist me when I walked in. It smells amazing when you enter the door like smoked meats. I ordered their pork shoulder special with baked beans. It was so flavorful and so much food. There was enough leftover to make another meal. It was hard to stop eating because it was so yummy. Another couple walked up while I was eating and I was telling them how good the food was. They said they knew and eat there at least once a week. I can see why! They are pet friendly and allow dogs oustide under the patio area. This was a delightful spot where the staff makes you feel like you're at home and the food is absolutely mouth watering.

Probably some of the best Mexican food we've had north and east of El PasoTX and Costa Mesa CA! Start off with margaritas. I went for the top shelf and my wife for their regular. Must say the top shelf margarita had some terrific flavors! We also ordered the chunky guacamole to go with the chips and salsa. The chunky guacamole is the way to go! For our main courses, my wife decided on the Los Yolanda's (really chicken enchiladas) while I decided on their Carnitas platter. Our dishes came out surprisingly fast and were truly delicious! We were talked into an order of fried ice cream for dessert, again happy that we did as it was very yummy! An unexpected treat of complementary tequila shots and celebration of Cinco de Mayo was also truly appreciated. We did like the decor having a nice flare. We were so happy that many of the wait staff stopped by our table to ensure all was good. If we visit again, I'm sure we'll stop by! Keep up the great work!

Super frustrating experience. First, husbands wings did not have any sauce, when stated five times…read moreto be medium sauced. Second, I asked for cheddar cheese on a simple burger, came out with American cheese and very under cooked. My kids also had burgers...they were served with shredded white cheese. One kiddo asked for ceaser salad as side...received a regular house salad with ranch dressing. Then when I sent my burger back as it wasn't cooked--SO PINK--they would not originally correct it and said they would do 10% diccount?! One of our servers didn't know how to use the ordering system and seemed so ditsy and overwhelmed. I don't understand how the order was so screwed up, but completely ruined our evening!!!! Not a lot of food options in Cave City...but don't go here!

My wife and I wanted to try another local spot for a late lunch before departing tomorrow…read more Unfortunately it wasn't the best overall experience. We ordered adult beverages, ordered their buffalo chicken dip, and noticed they had a TouchTunes Jukebox. We love them! There was just my wife and I, two guys talking, and the bartender. I decided to play the Jukebox and I guess it wasn't the music the bartender was expecting so she reset it and I lost four credits! And then she was a little apologetic saying oh he played that? You can play whatever you like and I said no thank you. The buffalo chicken dip was good. Seemed there might've been some cream cheese that wasn't fully mixed in, but it was still very tasty. My wife ordered the fried raviolis and I ordered 10 chicken wings with Cajun dry rub. The ravioli set up on the counter for a few minutes before she brought them over apologizing that they were out early and not with my chicken wings. A few minutes later, my chicken wings were done. With 10 chicken wings I would've expected about five drums and five flappers; however, it was eight flappers and two drums. Oh well. It was still pretty tasty. I had one of my wife's ride raviolis they were OK. Places that have TouchTunes jukebox should really check with people before they bounce songs or give them a free beer if they decide to bounce them.

The Lighthouse Restaurant in Edmonton, Kentucky, shines as a true celebration of Southern comfort,…read moreand nowhere is that more evident than in its unforgettable county ham and eggs. We stopped in here by chance, we had seen reviews in Kentucky Living and thought we would give it a try. From the moment the plate arrives, it's clear this is not just breakfast--it's heritage served hot. The county ham is the undeniable star: salt-cured, deeply flavorful, and expertly cooked so that each bite balances its robust savoriness with just enough tenderness. This is authentic Kentucky country ham--bold, unapologetic, and rich with tradition--prepared the way it should be, not watered down for convenience but honored for its character. Paired alongside are perfectly cooked eggs, done to order with a care that speaks volumes. Whether you prefer them fried with golden, lacy edges or softly scrambled, they provide the ideal counterpoint to the ham's intensity--creamy, fresh, and comforting. Together, the combination is simple, honest, and profoundly satisfying, the kind of meal that reminds you why classic breakfasts endure. What elevates The Lighthouse beyond just good food is the sense of place it delivers. This is a restaurant that understands its roots and proudly serves the flavors of the region without pretense. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the kind where locals linger over coffee and visitors immediately feel at home. Every bite of that county ham feels like a quiet nod to generations of Kentucky kitchens that perfected it long before it became a menu item. In a world of overcomplicated brunches, The Lighthouse stands tall by doing one thing exceptionally well: serving real food, made right. If you're in Edmonton, missing the county ham and eggs here would be nothing short of a culinary oversight. you are looking for comfort food this is the place to eat. Meals feels as though your home with your family. The place offers large portions, family style dinning and a welcoming environment. Don't forget the pie at the end. The pie is the cherry on top!
