We had a great experience at Malone’s. First, the place is very well decorated, with a tall wall of distilled drinks that you see as soon as you walk in. There are two levels with tables and even an escalator to take you up to the second floor. Service was very good and fast. We had different food items, such as the Neptune Valentine’s day special, which comes with a 9 oz filet mignon, shrimp, and scallops. We also had sushi and a spinach & artichoke dip for starter.

Elizabeth was a server here at Malone's rooftop bar. Walking up to this place, it was very nice and very well put together. As soon as I walked in, there was a wall of whiskey and bourbon options at the bar. The food was exceptional and well presented. I had the short ribs with potatoes. And then I had a few different desserts because I just couldn't decide. The crème brûlée had the perfect crust to it with a bourbon flavor, and the cookie was a giant chocolate chip cookie with ice cream on it. I definitely indulged more than what I needed to, but I would definitely go back here. The service and food were exceptional and definitely a 10 out of 10.

One if my favorite Louisville restaurants. Where else can you get sushi, a perfectly cooked steak and shot of rare bourbon? Very old school posh with impeccable service. Wish I could talk about different dishes here but I always order the same thing-Chicago roll and Carpaccio. Used to get French Onion soup that was the best I've ever had but they had the nerve to take it off the menu. Please bring it back! Next time you're in Louisville give it a try, I promise you won't be disappointed (except the French Onion soup thing)!

My girlfriend and I had the twin fillets and we also shared the blue crab linguine! If you come here and you do not try the blue crab linguine then you will surely miss out. The lexingtonian salad they offer is one of the best beautiful atmosphere it's quiet it's quaint it's elegant! I highly highly recommended

Excellent service. Our server Miguel was attentive but not over our shoulder. Ordered the blue crab & linguini which was DELICIOUS. Ended dinner with the donut bread pudding which i highly recommend. Had to send back the asparagus because it was mushy. Overall, it was a great experience!

Atmosphere is nice. Food was great. Ribeye steak was tender and full of flavor. The fish is great, flaky and tasty. Blackened shrimp were huge and tender. The chocolate cake was amazing

At first glance, the restaurant is a cutely packed place w a nice fancy atmosphere. My boyfriend and I were excited to go out to this place since it was our first time here together! We received bread and quickly ordered our food w almost little to no wait time. The food was fantastic and the mashed potatoes on the bluegrass chicken was delightful! the Melinase was a basil linguini only served especially during Valentines. Our only main complaint was the service. We noticed it was quite busy and many tables were almost completely full. However, our server TJ made almost little to no effort to serve us. During the meal we noticed his absence quite a lot despite being at other tables near us and making great conversations w them. It seemed he almost felt annoyed w us since we were only a couple, but we could overhear his laughter and conversation w other guests. We would like to give our appreciation to the server assistants refilling our drinks and taking away dishes we no longer needed. We will say our main server had only appeared to ask about our meal and then again for the final check. Once we received the check, he seemed happy to see us leave and didn’t say much else. So unfortunately we had to give a tip we thought was deserved for the service we received.

We frequently dine at Malone's. We love the food, atmosphere and staff is so friendly. Highly recommend. They do have a lunch menu and you can't go wrong with any of the very well prepared dishes. I had the battered fish with the Mexican corn. My wife had the blue crab linguine. It was all so good.
