    Surprisingly fantastic! Great wine choices and they even had 1/2 price bottle specials- even for high end wines ! Prime rib great- filets great, the corn is fabulous and served with sour cream. No room For dessert but we somehow devoured the Banana Foster’s - delicious! We will be back!

    Prime rib was overcooked, filet mignon was totally raw, asparagus was burnt. The crab topping on the raw filet mignon smelled way too fishy. The remake didn’t smell and the steak was cooked. The asparagus remake was still burnt. Waited forever for the remake. We all ate a different time. They offered us free desserts for the inconvenience. They should have done more. Will not go back.

    The food was not up to expectations. Steak was burnt when it was ordered medium well. Chicken was very rubbery and tough to chew.

    Richard is a top notch Bartender & Server. The food is fabulous. We ordered the ribeye, 10 oz filet, loaded baked potato, salad with house dressing and tiramisu. The atmosphere is quite-ish…everyone was talking at their respective tables but we could hear them and couldn’t hear us. We had a wonderful time at the Iron Steak House.

    They were short staffed, steak was barely edible and over cooked. Even the potatoes were over seasoned and so salty. We were very disappointed and they, reluctantly, comped our full meal. Bread was good, though.

    I had a reservation at the bar for 7:00 arrived at 6:25, and was immediately seated at the bar. Ordered a drink and appetizer and my dinner. My appetizer and drink were fantastic. I had tickets to the 8 o’clock show and at 7:35. My dinner has still not arrived. I asked my server to check on my meal because I had to leave. I waited another 10 minutes and still no dinner, so I paid for my drink and my appetizer and left. This was my second experience at this restaurant and the first one was absolutely fantastic. Not sure I will go back again even though I did love the place and the food was great the first time.

    First time dining at the Irons Steakhouse in Franklin KY. Did not disappoint! Just as pleasant as dining at the major steakhouse competition in Nashville if not better! Ordered 10oz filet mignon prepared medium rare. Steak was cooked as I had requested, tender, juicy, well seasoned and absolutely the best filet I have had anywhere. Side dishes are A La Carte, and asparagus along with corn casserole was flavorful and very southern tasting, just like a family gathering side dish. For dessert, tried the Tiramisu and again, simply decadent and presentation of the dish was well crafted by the kitchen staff. 5 stars!

    We had reservations. We were seated promptly without menus then waited over 15 minutes with no one to serve us. No one bothered to greet us at the table. At least five of those minutes were two servers chatting with the bartender while I keep turning around trying to get served. It was my sisters birthday. Needless to say, we complained to the bartender and hostess and left. Unfortunately I can not accurately relate the full experience.

    The food was good but way over priced. When we got there it was great. We had 3 waitresses/waiters come up and get our drink order and said they would be back with bread. Never came back with any break and took forever for our waiter to take our order. The other 2 waitresses never came back to our table. We finally asked on for bread and it was giving. The food took forever to come out and my glass had been empty. When they gave us our food I asked for a refill and I was done eating g before he ever brought me anything to drink. So I ate my whole meal with no drink and you would think for the price we paid the service would have been a lot better. Do not plan to ever go back. I can pay way less then $65 for a burger and salmon at other places and get way better service.

    We made reservations for 5 pm for my birthday. We were 1st ones in and told the hostess we would like a booth. She said there were only 2 waiters and set us at a tiny table for 2 instead of a booth. Now the next couple she takes and sets at a booth as well as the 3rd couple. The sets all the rest at small tables for 2 in a line. Now the waiter was very good and the food was very good. We just finished eating and ordered birthday desert. The last couple they set beside us had a strong oder about them . I am asthmatic and it started bothering me as well as my wife. She walked out to get fresh air and I went to the bar to pay my bill. I told the waiter I was sorry I can't stay in there any longer. He said we could take our desert out in lobby to eat if we liked. I said no thanks I have to get out of here before I get sick. There was a lady at tge bar eating and I said give it to her , I have to leave now. I paid and we left. The food and service was spot on.. But that small table , then that smell ruined my birthday...

    We have been to this place a handful of times. We went there this time to celebrate my husbands birthday. He had the rib-eye and I had the filet mignon . Cooked to perfection. We also got the stuffed mushrooms which my husband loved but I’m not a mushroom fen. And we enjoyed the creamed corn side with our steaks. Which was just ok. Probably will not order that side item again. But the overall experience was amazing. We will def be back!!! Thanks, Art and Lindy Dillard

    It was a busy Friday night and boisterous and noisy. We were served promptly. And too quickly. Barely got a few tastes in of my tasty onion soup and my wife’s fried asparagus spears when the dinner was served. It was an ok prime rib. Tasty but not extraordinary. And the sides were overwhelmingly large. Tasty but huge. Tyler our server was pleasant. It was an ok experience fine for being here at the track and casino. But I wouldn’t race out again for the experience.

    We reserved a table for 7 to celebrate my dad’s 74th birthday. We got a private room and they allowed us to bring our own birthday cake from my dad’s favorite baker. They presented it and provided candles. The food was absolutely delicious. The Prime Rib Dinner and filet was top notch. The asparagus was prepared better than I’d have ever tasted. My sister had the Iron Burger and said it had too much meat(who ever says that!?). I took a bite and it confirmed our suspicions that she should be in a straight jacket. Dad had the Seafood plate and was raving about it long after we had paid the bill. I didn’t have any alcohol myself, but my oldest sister started a trip down memory lane after one margarita, so I know it packed a punch. My brother-in-law had Irons’ version of an Old Fashion and it must’ve been remarkable because he refused to let anyone else taste it. There were only 5 of us who showed up because my only brother who lives with my dad decided he was too busy to show up, but our bill was $245, which is way less than we expected. The servers waited patiently as my burger-critique sister logged in frantically to see if she had enough to pay for the meal since she doesn’t fully understand how transferring money works yet. Long story short, I would 100% recommend Irons Steakhouse! My dad says he wants his birthday celebration here next year. Of course he would, he didn’t have to plan or pay for anything. Happy Birthday, Dad… and thank you, Irons Steakhouse! You guys rock!!

    It was my second time dining at Irons SteakHouse. My first dining experience, there was very pleasant, set an a table near the back and was given good service. Last night I sat at the bar and the service there seem to be terrible. Will be dining again there on Saturday night hoping for a better experience.

    Got seated in good order, then waited for the 20 mins for server. We read prior reviews so we went ahead and ordered when someone showed up drinks and dinner. Waited another 30 mins for our bottle of wine. Steaks were over cooked and baked potato tasted like it was cooked a day or two prior. Cauliflower and asparagus were cold. Definitely will not be back. Management needs fired or re trained. Spent the rest of night in the bathroom. I’m sure you can guess why…
