Best food near me in Frankfort, KY

wonderful, helped me with my proposal such a great atmosphere

Beautiful setting and lovely venue. Food was very tasty and well presented. Value pricing. Highly recommend.

I recently dined at Cypress and Oak in Frankfort, Kentucky, and it was an outstanding experience that ranks among the best steakhouses I’ve visited while traveling for work. As someone who frequently dines at upscale restaurants across the country, I’m often disappointed by underwhelming meals, but Cypress and Oak surpassed all expectations. The highlight of the evening was the filet mignon, easily one of the finest steaks I’ve ever had in a restaurant. Cooked to absolute perfection, it was tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor, showcasing the kind of craftsmanship and quality that makes a steakhouse truly exceptional. This filet has raised the bar for what I expect from a great steak especially when it's priced just under $40. The meal began with the Caprese salad, a delightful appetizer that was fresh, creative, and beautifully executed. Listed on the menu under salads (though I’d suggest moving it to the “appetizers” section), it featured fried green tomatoes, creamy mozzarella, and a vibrant basil note, creating a perfect balance of flavors and textures that set the tone for the meal. This inventive twist on a classic was an ideal starter. The ambiance at Cypress and Oak was warm and sophisticated, blending refinement with approachability. The service was impeccable—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming, which elevated the entire experience. For anyone in Frankfort or seeking a memorable dining experience in Kentucky, Cypress and Oak is a must-visit. I left thoroughly impressed and already looking forward to my next visit!

The food was perfect. It was tasteful, plentiful and presented beautifully.

We have eaten at Heirloom for special occasions for many years and have always been pleased.
