    The atmosphere & Inn setting has a historic & laid back tranquil feeling that relaxes you to enjoy a diverse and creative 3 course brunch. From well balanced drinks & personalized French press coffee, Clam Chowder & brunch creations. Everyone in our group enjoyed there main course. Highly recommend the Holly Inn!!

    This is my favorite place to eat when we fly up from Florida to visit my daughter who lives here. Holly Hill never fails me. The food is outstanding and the service is charming. It's one of the few restaurants where you can eat and have table conversation in a relaxing, quiet atmosphere often with the backdrop of soft, jazz music . The menu is always innovative. This time we had the Sunday brunch, and it was wonderful, and we had enough food left over to have breakfast the next day so though it might seem pricey for breakfast, it was worth it. You won't find better ham biscuits anywhere! I can't wait for our next visit!

    Everything from the friendliness of the staff to the presentation of the meal to the art work and overall atmosphere were top tier. Looking forward to our family celebration next Sunday so that our loved ones can have the same experience!

    Each course offered extraordinary culinary delights. There is no doubt in my mind that Holly Hill is the best restaurant in Kentucky… and maybe one of the best in the US!!!

    I appreciate all the special flavors in unique combinations of usual and unusual ingredients. Also a noise level where you can carry a conversation.

    Probably one of the best meals I’ve had in recent memory and the service was outstanding, it’s no surprise they are up for a James Beard hospitality award. I’m kind of surprised they aren’t also nominated for one on the food side. Excellent meal.
