About This Place

Nestled in the charming town of Midway, Kentucky, Heirloom Restaurant is a culinary gem that masterfully blends American classics with refined fine dining. Located at 125 E Main St, this vibrant eatery doubles as a wine bar, coffee shop, and dessert destination, making it perfect for any meal occasion—from a leisurely lunch to an elegant dinner.

The menu at Heirloom tantalizes the senses with a diverse selection of dishes that showcase both comfort and sophistication. Seafood lovers are drawn to the perfectly caramelized Pan Seared Scallops, served atop a silky green pea velouté and accompanied by tender baby potatoes, fire-roasted tomatoes, and crisp asparagus—a harmonious coastal delight. Steaks are elevated to an art form here, especially the Porcini Rubbed Beef Filet, a gluten-free prime filet mignon served with Okinawa sweet potatoes, roasted asparagus, and a luscious red wine demiglace finished with black truffle butter. If you’re in the mood for something a bit lighter, the Warm Goat Cheese Salad with Salmon offers a beautifully balanced combination of rich, creamy cheese and flawlessly cooked salmon, while the Deviled Eggs and Crispy Fried Spinach make for irresistible starters.

Whether you're craving the hearty, Southern-inspired comfort of Shrimp and Grits or the bright, refreshing notes of the Margarita Flatbread, every dish is crafted with meticulous attention to detail and fresh, quality ingredients. Indulgent desserts such as the House Made Chocolate Lava Cake with Vanilla Ice Cream and the luscious Pumpkin Creme Brulee provide a decadent finish to your meal, while creative cocktails like the S’Mores Martini and Espresso Martini elevate the dining experience to new heights.

The atmosphere at Heirloom exudes an inviting yet upscale vibe, with attentive and knowledgeable staff who add a personal touch to your visit. Guests like Keely McIntosh rave not only about the food—calling the pork chop the best she’s ever had and praising the perfectly cooked scallops—but also about the exceptional service that makes each meal memorable. The fresh, house-made salted pretzel rolls are a standout amongst guests like Taylor Grayson, who find themselves enchanted by every course, from the flavorful gumbo soup to exquisite desserts.

Visitors appreciate not only the thoughtfully curated menu but also the sense of comfort and community within the restaurant. Miranda Hinchman fondly recalls the unbeatable chicken flippers and the charm of Midway, while Jacob Greber highlights the beautiful drive from Lexington that sets the tone for a delightful dining experience enhanced by unique dishes like the beet salad and Okinawa sweet potatoes.

Whether stopping in for a sophisticated evening or a casual mid-day meal, Heirloom Restaurant promises an exceptional culinary journey that celebrates the best of American fare with an elegant twist.

    So much great food to choose from, but I have to say the chicken flippers are my favorite! The best I've ever had literally! Midway is a great town to visit walk around see the shops and have a great lunch or dinner.

    I had an excellent experience at this restaurant! The food was delicious and the service was top-notch. The drive from Lexington was absolutely beautiful, adding to the overall enjoyment of the visit. The menu offers a delightful blend of unique and traditional dishes, including the classic favorite of fried chicken. The standout items for me were the beet salad and the Okinawa sweet potatoes, both of which were simply amazing. Overall, it was a memorable dining experience that exceeded my expectations. The town is very cute as well!

    This is my favorite place to eat in Midway and probably the best pork chop I’ve ever had. The scallops were cooked perfectly too. I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. Our server, Gretchen, was also on top of everything making it an even more enjoyable experience. The espresso martini was delicious, in my top three of all time. If you’re in midway you don’t want to miss out on this place. 10/10

    Went for lunch on a cold Saturday. Place was quiet except for group at table behind us. Loud talkers ruined atmosphere a bit. Deviled eggs were perfect. Really wanted soup, they had mushroom. It was good, but their carrot is still our favorite, followed by the butternut squash soup. My entree was the warm goat cheese salad with Salmon. Salmon was perfectly cooked and seasoned and delicious. Salad was good as always. Husband got the Mary burger and fries. News fries are bigger and breaded and we both liked them better. Can't wait to go back on another cold Saturday.

    We booked a reservation for our anniversary after having lunch here a while back and had a wonderful time!!! They do also take walk-ins so a reservation isn't necessary but I'd recommend it just to be sure they have a spot for you and it's a great way to give the staff a heads up with any dietary restrictions. The staff was incredibly helpful in modifying menu items for a vegan and were happy to do so. Everything we had was expertly prepared and visually stunning. You should note that this is absolutely a fine dining experience so it will be more expensive than your average restaurant but considering the quality of the dishes, the ingredients used, the skill required to prepare them, and the portion sizes it's definitely well worth the money but even then the prices aren't as high as other places that severely lack the atmosphere and menu creativity. As a twenty year chef, I have zero complaints and will absolutely be returning. Brilliant work and if I could give more stars I would readily do so. Thank you all so much for a wonderful evening. Sincerely, D.B. Spade Chef

    The place is beautifully decorated, and very clean! The staff is wonderful and they provide excellent service! The restaurant is a tight squeeze, so I wouldn't recommend it if you need a wheelchair. The food was nice, but I think some things could be seasoned more, but they do know how to cook their meats so that they are juicy! Seafood included. I had their dark chocolate mousse cake, and that was delectable! Some of my friends had the fruit sorbet, And the texture was silky, fruity sweet, with a tart bite to it. Another friend had A seasonal pie, I believe? It had peaches, and they loved it!

    Cheerful Hostess greeted us upon arrival! Glasses already watered and butter on the table. Server brought us a basket of assorted breads with a raspberry balsamic. A hot spot for locals & super swanky! Loved all the decor and atmosphere. Music fit all genres. We started with the potato & leek soup and a spinach craisen salad. Delicious! Chef put did himself on both presentation & deliciousness! We shared the Red Snapper with mouth watering carrots & we added a side of seasonal mushrooms & whipped Yukon potatoes. The house Pinot Grigio complimented our entire experience! Well done Lisa in your recommendations! You allowed us to be guided by you! Desert menu had a S’mores & an Expresso Martinis that we finished off our evening with! Keep doing great things & we will see you again on our adventures in your area! You made our two year anniversary super memorable! Thank you!
