Restaurants near Holiday Inn Express Shelbyville

First time visit to Steak and Bourbon and I will return again. The rolls with beef tallow candle were a fun starting touch and the caesar salad was one of the best I have had, and huge. Was planning on ordering the Top Cap Sirloin, but was told they don’t have it anymore and need to reprint the menus. Ordered the 10oz filet rare plus with a side of creamed spinach. Did not disappoint.

Excellent food and service. Soft Christmas music was playing and the ambiance was soothing festive. The tables had a lovely floral and candle centerpiece. All of the food was excellent however I must rave about the salad wedge, its the best I have ever had.

While the food was good nothing outstanding. It seemed that the entree was overwhelmed by the side. Several entrees had Parmesan fries which covered two-thirds of the plate. Online menu different from actual menu. This is extremely frustrating when you take the time to pick out ahead of time what you would like to order only to find those items not on menu. In addition, if you are trying to keep to a budget during holidays having to make snap decisions while ordering is counterproductive.

The service was absolutely fantastic, and my steak was perfect. Though there was a problem with my meal, they made it right with a genuine smile. (Details on the meal: I got the steak and fried shrimp combo and asked for the shrimp to not be fried. When my dinner came out the shrimp was blackened and it was too salty - I asked the server to bring plain shrimp and he responded by thanking me for letting them make it right with a huge genuine smile and that is what they did, they made new shrimp, and my meal and experience was fantastic.)

This is my favorite place to have lunch with friends. Great food and the atmosphere is so pleasant. They never rush you and the staff are so very friendly. I have eaten at this establishment for several years and plan on continuing it for many more.
