Now, let’s return to that “perfect dining and entertainment storm” we mentioned above. If you plan your schedule just right, you could start a special Saturday with an amazing meal at our Irons Steakhouse. The entrance is easy to spot… just look for a huge, beautiful bourbon barrel honoring Kentucky’s most famous product.
Inside you will find friendly, attentive service and amazing food. The diverse menu offers great choices at reasonable prices. Appetizers offer a wonderful selection of starters from Asparagus Fries to Irish Onion Soup.
Entrées feature everything from the Irons Burger to Pecan Crusted Salmon and New Zealand Lamb Rack to Ahi Tuna. If you are a more traditional eater, of course a place with “Steakhouse” in its name must have an excellent choice of beef including Filets, New York Strips, Ribeyes and Prime Rib. Want to add a special touch to your beef choice? Try one of our Steak Toppers including grilled shrimp, four pepper butter, buttons & pearls or blue cheese crust.
Of course, you will need sides as delicious and interesting as your entrée, and Irons does not disappoint with selections such as Corn Casserole, Truffle Mac N’ Cheese, Sweet Potato Hash and many more.
Also, don’t miss the chance to experience a creative drink from the bar inside Irons Steakhouse. Their mixologists and chef are always coming up with new and tasty ways to tantalize your taste buds and on Wednesdays and Thursdays be sure to ask about the wine specials.
And, of course, the Irons’ desserts are just over the top. Whether it is the amazing Cheesecake, Bananas Foster or many others… they are all the perfect end to an outstanding dining experience.
So, you have started off your evening with an amazing dining experience. That’s just the beginning of the perfect storm.
