    A consistent favorite! My daughter loves to celebrate her birthday here. Recognizing the occasion, the staff contacted me and arranged for a special table upstairs (her favorite!) They even accommodated us early. Zoe was our server and made the experience so special for us. Love this place!

    I had requested a both and they honored that request, we were seated very quickly and drink order taken. Our waiter was absolutely superb as always. Malone’s never disappoints. We felt like the only ones there but indeed it was very busy and service was ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    The wait time for less than 5 minutes for out table. The staff was attentive and polite. Chloe suggested and recommended several items on the menu and it was not disappointing. For drinks we had Kentucky martini and a Kentucky lemonade. Both were great! If you don’t like rye whiskey, this is not for you! I loved it. On to the food, appetizer was boom boom shrimp and wontons. The shrimp was tastefully made and you can savor the seasoning. The wontons were good but not as great as the shrimp. We had seafood trio. Flavorful and plenty! Also had the chicken and shrimp pasta. Definitely a lot of food and the taste was phenomenal. Tonight did not disappoint!

    Great service. Beautiful restaurant. The food is very inconsistent. Some hits and some misses. Mushroom soup- amazing. Wildly overpriced single hush puppy- also amazing. Ceviche- expensive and bland. Our table was sharing this and we did not finish it. Scallops dish - wonderful and a good portion size/-4 large scallops, but slightly salty! The ribeye- huge but soooo salty. My husband ate it but did say it was too salty. I tried one bite and honestly I would not have eaten it with that much salt on it. Such a shame to ruin a nice steak like that. Brussels sprouts- also incredibly salty- I could not eat. I hope the chef can back off on the salt. This over-salted food was something a lot of local restaurants were doing like 4 or 5 years ago and most places have moved on from this. People want to taste the ingredients!
