Tony York's is quite possibly the best restaurant in Hardin County, and much of the surrounding…read morearea. I was first introduced by my in-laws years ago and we have spent many special occasions dining at the restaurant, as well as more casual dinners. The menu changes often, which is great for anyone who frequents Tony's! You can't get bored or be too familiar, there are new menu items every time we go. Everything I've eaten is excellent, so I am never worried that I won't be able to find something enjoyable. Not only does Tony know what he's doing, but his staff is on point - so attentive and friendly. For a seemingly upscale place you're free to be as casual or dressy as you like and you will be welcomed warmly. If the fried green tomatoes appetizer is available it is a must! I also recommend the cheesy bites/cheesy puffs, I can't recall the exact name. My in-laws are huge fans of the hummus too. For dinner I cannot even tell you everything I've tried - lasagna, steaks, oysters, a hot brown, various pasta dishes - and all were amazing! Tony's does not disappoint! Be sure to leave room for dessert! Tony is at the restaurants most nights and is so great to chat with! He's shared a few recipes with my mother-in-law and talked about his personal garden and plans for upcoming dishes, and the restaurant in general. Having an attentive and involved owner makes this place that much more awesome in my book. Recently, Tony's catered my wedding reception. We have received so many compliments on the food since returning from our honeymoon! Due to the distance and to fit within our budget we had a salad and pasta bar with several options so no one -including our vegetarian friends- felt left out. There was blackened chicken, fettuccini and penne, meatballs, Alfredo and marinara sauces, as well as a homemade dill ranch for the salad that everyone kept asking about. (I'm probably forgetting some things.) Tony's also did our cake and it was delicious! We decided not to keep the top layer and our guests devoured the cake - several mentioned that it was the best cake they had ever eaten. There were layers of chocolate, ganache, and whipped truffles with a white buttercream and cream cheese frosting. We provided a topper and told their baker to arrange it however she thought looked best and it was lovely! She also coordinated everything day-of and helped is out by arranging the mini cupcakes we had ordered elsewhere around the cake table when our venue coordinator was MIA. Everyone was a pleasure to work with leading up to our big day! So easy, I wish all of our vendor experiences had been so smooth. So, in addition to recommending dinner from Tony York's on Main, I also highly recommend the restaurant for any event catering you may need! You will not be disappointed!

It is in a very old building that has covered front porch that connects it to a couple other businesses that appeared to be antique stores. Tony, the owner, greeted us just inside the door to the restaurant. He took us to our table and spoke to us about his business and that his mother was his inspiration for cooking. He's the youngest of 10 children. We enjoyed talking to him. The waitress was friendly. We all enjoyed our meal. Mine was fried chicken breast, corn on the cob and potato salad. It all tasted good. The homemade strawberry ice cream was recommended by Tony so we got it for dessert. It was a disappointment. It was served in a very small glass tea cups and was a liquid with slices of strawberry. The waitress knew it was not appealing since it didn't freeze well when it was made yet served it to us anyway. I didn't eat much of mine. The strawberries were good. My friend paid the bill so I don't know the total cost of my meal. But, the prices on the menu were all very reasonable for the quantity of food. Glad we tried this restaurant. Overall, I would recommend.

Then I ordered the soup and a side of grits, which were both delicious. My husband order the Beef cheek Po Boy - yummy! And my friend ordered the Cuban. The fries are tasty and everything tasted incredibly fresh and well prepared. Of course we saved room for dessert and shared the Banana Cream Pudding. It had a roasted marshmallow top and probably the beat Banana pudding I've had! For drinks, we got the Filly Lilly, A specialty Mint Julio with Thyme in it, and the winner was the Strawberry Rhubarb Buck. Wow! Not only was the food delicious, but the service was great and everyone was very friendly and helpful. We sat inside because it was a dreary first half of the day before the sun came out for the Derby! But, there were a lot of nice outdoor areas to sit and enjoy your food or beverages.

The restaurant includes a long row of bar seating that extends to the other end of the restaurant, so there was no problem for me to find a seat on a busy day. I ordered the Mac n cheese and braised greens, and the Mac n cheese was really good and creamy. The braised greens were just okay, it wasn't the best greens I've had and it could use extra flavor. I don't know if this is a thing they do at Doc Crow's, but in my opinion the bartender excessively kept asking me what I wanted even while I was still looking at the menu. This definitely frustrated me since it was clear that I wasn't ready yet. I think she should have done a better job reading my cues to figure out when I am ready to order.

My top-tier chum who literally went to the school of hospitality and I spent most of the afternoon on a bourbon tour and a post-tour distillery so...food was needed. And quickly. In our mild defense, we didn't really know how the day was going to go or when we were actually going to have dinner, which made it a little tougher to pre-plan, but no research went into this at all and we paid for it. We wrapped up our bourbon adventures at the Angel's Envy distillery probably five or six blocks from here. Instead of being grownups and doing at least a quick/impromptu recon for spots, we literally just walked outside and down W Main St until we hit something. And we hit this, which was right on the edge of the main tourist area, pretty much Louisville's equivalent of the Times Square/MSG area. And as someone who works and used to live in NYC, you'd have to do a lot of convincing to get me to eat in that particular area - it's overpriced and the food/service just tends to not be very good, which makes you wonder what the appeal is for tourists beyond the convenience. But regardless, it's always struck me as an odd way for a tourism spot to put its best foot forward (or not). Doc Crow's is enormous, and when we were brought further into the restaurant to our table, I think we literally walked through three or four large rooms and navigated through multiple passageways. If you told me this place took up an entire city block or close to it, I'd believe you. Beyond the size/scope, there's nothing really distinctive that separates it from the myriad of other restaurants you'd expect to see catering to out-of-towners. It was the Friday evening of Memorial Day Weekend, so a place that I suspect is usually pretty busy was even busier and louder than that. Maybe not the greatest recipe after a bourbon tour, but who can say. On the app front, we got the Crispy Salmon Bites, which were fine. Not an item I typically see on a menu, even one with more of a seafood bent. I thought the cornmeal/panko breading was the right call; I'm a big catfish aficionado, so I'm of the opinion that cornmeal is underutilized, at least in the Northeast where I come from. Otherwise, nothing really mind-blowing there; probably would have made sense for it to be a different type of fish given the prep (I think salmon is best raw in a sushi roll or grilled), but it could have been worse. I don't think a ton of thought went into this on my end, but I went with the full rack BBQ ribs, along with a side of mac n' cheese. Again, okay, though not as flavorful as I would have hoped and I thought the ribs were on the dry side. Not their fault, but I always regret getting the full rack in hindsight because ribs have a deceptively significant amount of meat on the bones and a half rack is a very decent portion by itself; I am a work in progress just like everyone else. The mac n' cheese was also pretty dry, which I think you can see pretty obviously in the accompanying picture. Tasted and felt reheated at least once or twice. The service was pretty efficient given how busy it was, but our waiter was just on robotic autopilot. Not remotely personable and everything I said to him was responded to with, "For sure, for sure." Maybe he was having a rough night to start the holiday weekend, but it felt like he was just going through the motions and just checking off some boxes there. I went into this already predisposed to not like the generic tourist trap places, so grain of salt. But my recommendation if you have the time/bandwidth (now that I'm a cagey Louisville vet) is to bypass this area if you can and find something tastier and more interesting in the Highlands neighborhood. That's where the real ones are.
