#9 Steakhouse, Madisonville, KY

I have found a diamond in the rough. While working at Wendell Ford Training Center in Greenville, KY this week, we ventured off the beaten path in search of something edible for dinner. Not that the "mess hall" was THAT horrible, or that the canteen didn't make nice sandwiches, but it was nice to go out somewhere and enjoy a nice dinner.

So this little steakhouse does NOT look impressive from the outside. It looks about like your hole-in-the-wall dive, but it is so much more.

Upon entering the steakhouse, we noticed that it was a little tight around the hostess counter, but we were seated quickly at a table that was large enough for our party of five to be comfortable. We were served quickly by a young lady who was fresh and seemed happy to take care of us.

Each of us in the dining party ordered something different. One of us ordered the ribeye, one ordered the surf n turf, someone ordered the pork tenderloin (which was supposed to be medallions but were instead really nice sized pork chops), someone ordered the chef special (which was shrimp and grits), and I ordered the barbeque chicken. Dinner was excellent! It probably was one of the best dinners I have had in a while. I don't think anyone had a complaint at all. The dessert selection was fantastic, but there was no more room for that.

Overall, dinner was wonderful. The atmosphere was great and the food was more than satisfying. I've already told many people about this little place just a bit down the road. And I'll be stopping by there again to try more of their menu selections when I get back to Madisonville.
