Food is pretty good nothing special about it. The bluegrass chicken is good , the mushroom sauce is salty. The calamari is decent a bit rubbery, the Lexingtonian salad, I was expecting it to be better but it’s just a salad. Anyway I like Malone’s ill be coming back maybe..
Food is always spot on! All the steaks are great, sirloin is the go to. Sushi and sashimi are fresh and flavorful - sunset roll was our favorite. Bottomless Lexingtonian salad with entrees. Also enjoyed the Kale & Quinoa salad.
I would not say this a place I could or would likely frequent for meals, as it's a bit pricey for me. But I think a lot of folks do, and I see the appeal! The service is truly wonderful, and I've been in a few times recently and it's been consistent regardless of the crowd. Over the years the Palomar location seems to have great staff. I feel like the vibes, price, and food fit the neighborhood. Lots of options and a rotating seasonal menu. I appreciate the many seafood and veggie options-the seasonal lobster minis are truly amazing.
Went here for our anniversary last night. My first visit to any Malone’s. I’m not used to such a nice restaurant tbh. This was a special occasion, and our sever Renee, went above and beyond to celebrate us and make us feel special. She answered questions we had about the food- I had no clue what a Lexingtonian was- but I do now, and it was fabulous. I substituted Honey Mustard dressing in place of the ranch and it was delicious. She brought out a chilled plate- which I didn’t know was a thing- made all the difference with my salad. My boyfriend’s salad came out with a hair in it, she didn’t hesitate to rectify the situation and apologized. The only negative for me was that it was very cold in the restaurant and the wait times were long. I understand that though, it’s Friday, they are busy, food takes time to cook, etc. with each course brought out, she was so kind and sweet. Taking time to check on us in between. She explained she had an assistant-I think his name was John- he was very attentive as well, even boxing up our leftovers for us. Renee gave us a free dessert since it was our anniversary. We left with many leftovers-enough for another meal. My boyfriend really enjoyed his burger and seasoned fries. I got the 10oz sirloin but couldn’t eat much of it due to filling up on other food. I’m giving this a 4.8 because of the freezing cold temperature inside the restaurant. Everything else was amazing.
Outstanding service and excellent cuisine! Steaks & salmon were cooked perfectly! The Lexingtonian salad was superb! My daughter said she should have opted for the fries rather than the mashed potatoes, they were not as thick as she prefers. Sushi rolls were on point! Our waiter was attentive- never waiting for a drink refill and dirty plates cleared immediately! Oh, and don't forget dessert! Took it to go because we were full but reheated nicely!
