Reviews
I was most excited for the Chef’s featured Beef and Potato stew. However, it was fine but not anything great. It felt like they threw all of the pieces of beef that had a ton of fat on them into that soup. The beef either made me gag and spit out the fat (sorry for the TMI but I want to make sure to include that for my friends who get really bothered by that texture), Or just try to think about something else and swallow it. The flavor of the broth was good, though, and the potato, and it was really yummy! I don’t know if they throw bad cuts of beef into that soup because they think people won’t notice but it was pretty disappointing.
The service at the bar was really great, and my bartender, Davaun, kept me well taken care of and was very friendly and helpful. I tried the Kentucky Lady cocktail, which was good!!
The Happy Hour is definitely a great deal and I highly recommend stopping by in that time frame, especially if you like wine.
The food sealed the deal. Both the sirloin and filet were cooked perfectly—tender, flavorful, and exactly at temperature. The kitchen was clearly on its game even during peak hours. The Cajun Alfredo was another standout: rich, creamy, and carrying just the right kick without overwhelming the dish.
We also tried the sushi-style crab rangoon appetizer, which turned out to be a clever and delicious twist on the classic. Instead of the usual little folded pastry, this version was more cohesive, balanced, and shareable—easily one of the most memorable bites of the night.
Malone’s at Hamburg delivers exactly what you expect from a top-tier local restaurant: excellent service, consistent execution, and food that makes the price point feel justified.
The filet medium rare 12 oz is just a solid, consistently well made piece of meat. The sides that come with the steak are decent and the Lexingtonian salad is a a great touch.
The service can be hit or miss, but everyone is super nice and it is quite busy in there always so I get it.
Well suited for big business dinners as well as the single bar seating. The place is huge
Once our host arrived, we were seated. For anyone wondering about the atmosphere—it’s casual and relaxed.
Our server, Kelly (if I’m remembering her name correctly), was wonderful. She was attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the meal. She brought out our Smoked Chestnut Old Fashioned, along with the appetizers: spinach artichoke dip and carpaccio. Everything was delicious, and the cocktail was smooth, aromatic, and nicely balanced with a smoky finish. The bread service was also a nice touch.
For my entrée, I ordered the 5 oz steak with crab and elote. The steak itself was cooked perfectly—right on temperature, tender, and flavorful. The elote was served separately in a white bowl, as shown in the photo, and was enjoyable on its own. What I didn’t understand was the “crab” component, which turned out to be a deep-fried sushi roll. That pairing alongside a steak felt unexpected, and the overall plate composition and presentation didn’t quite come together for me.
That said, this may simply be a difference in perspective. I personally place a strong emphasis on plate presentation and cohesion, and Malone’s may focus more on comfort and execution than visual refinement.
Overall: Excellent service, a great cocktail, and a perfectly cooked steak. While the rest of the plate wasn’t what I expected, the experience was still enjoyable.
