The Blackstone Grille

"I just had dinner at Blackstone Grille. I’m from out of town and just popped in hoping to get a seat at the bar. That eventually happened but the service there is bar none. The hostess Layla and the two bartenders Lauren and Lo made the entire experience. From me calling ahead speaking to Layla, both Lauren and Lo bartending, go my to-go order, everything was done so well. Not only did they take care of the regulars (which I completely respect) but they couldn’t have been nicer and attentive to me who was just one person from out of town and just stopped in on the hopes of getting a seat at the bar. When I got home and actually ate my steak burger I could not have been happier. The meat was incredible, cooked to perfection and so good even when it was a take out order. If you can’t tell yet I would recommend this restaurant without hesitation. On a random Wednesday night I had the best restaurant experience that I have been in a very, very long time. The food was fantastic but those gals were so impressive. It was crowded but they did everything with a huge smile on their face. Well done Blackstone! I wish I could contact the owners directly so I’m hoping that this will get back to them. I can’t wait to go back on my next trip!"

"Had a wonderful dining experience here at Blackstone. Tish, our sever was attentive, knowledgeable, and patient. My steak was cooked perfectly, and I loved the corn pudding (not in the photo) Looking forward to my next visit."

"Our friends invited us to dine with them at Blackstone Grille. My wife and I have never been to Blackstone, but what a great experience we had dining with them at this establishment. My wife ordered the Brutus (Caesar) salad which consisted of tossed Romaine with a creamy Caesar dressing. The salad was topped with shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano. She added a slice of salmon to go with her salad. The salmon was char-grilled with brown sugar with a lemon-balsamic reduction. The salmon was served with a side of fresh asparagus. She reveled in the various favors of her choices. My friend tried the Chicken Scarborough which was accompanied by country ham Au Gratin potatoes and corn pudding. The chicken was boneless and skinless breasts sauteed with Cremini mushrooms, garlic, bourbon (well, we are in Kentucky), teriyaki, pineapple, and a splash of cream. There were also Kentucky country ham ribbons added to this great dish. He had no complaints and enjoyed it very much. My friend's wife ordered the Springer Mountain Fried Chicken. The two 5oz boneless-skinless breasts were lightly seasoned and, as the menu stated, gently fried. She had green beans and mashed potatoes as her sides. She wasn't disappointed in her selections. I treated myself to a very savory grilled Berkshire Double -Cut pork chop. The chop was a 10oz cut. The glaze was a smoked honey bourbon (Yeah, use a lot of bourbon here in Kentucky) smoked paprika glaze. The chop was accompanied by a chili-maple mustard. This chop was one of the best I have had the pleasure to enjoy. My sides were collard greens (We are in the South) and green beans. I didn't care for the green beans much because they were the crisp type, not the country style.  But, that's just my taste. All were served with fresh rolls and butter. We had an order of Spinach Queso with warm house-made tortilla chips, but they were devoured before I could snap a picture. Blackstone is an absolutely a great dining experience. The atmosphere is spot on! Our waiter, Yancy, was very professional. He just didn't take out orders but engaged with us about our selections, etc. The bar is somewhat small, but well stocked. There is ample parking. We will be dining at Blackstone again and encourage you to do the same. Enjoy!"

"We had heard good things about the Blackstone Grille and they were right - the food and service were wonderful! We enjoyed the most tender, melt-in-your mouth pot roast with mashed potatoes and green beans I've had since my mother and grandmother used to cook! The brownie dessert made our anniversary celebration even more special!!"
