Ramsey's

4053 Tates Creek Center, Lexington, KY


In April of 1989, Rob Ramsey opened the first Ramsey’s Diner at the corner of Woodland and High Street in Lexington, KY. He had little money, but plenty of experience and BIG dreams. The dreams led to parlaying his one store into a total of four stores and a pie shop (Missy’s), which was created mostly due to the lack of kitchen space in the restaurant. The lack of money led to a concept of used, old, wooden tables, a mix match of china, and a generally comfortable, eclectic atmosphere.

Now after thousands of bottles washed, and meals prepared for his guests, Rob has four of the most popular spots in Central Kentucky.

Rob has built his success around diligently paying attention to every detail and building strong relationships with his employees. He realizes it is his employees along with great food that has made his restaurants successful.

Ramsey's serves only the highest quality food using fresh vegetables, premium grade fresh meats, butter and whole cream in all his recipes. The prices allow people to eat at the restaurants several times a week.

The Ramsey’s team is committed to equaling the quality of our food with the quality of our service. If you ever feel we have failed to achieve this goal, please tell us. We will either make it right or pick up your bill.
The menu was not even large in appearance but the selections offered was amazing...food just like your grandma would serve.
Of course, my Dad had a bowl of beans with onions and cornbread made in those cute little corn cob looking things.  I had a bite and they were good!

pork chops, fried green tomatoes, kale, mashed potatoes with corn bread

Hot Brown...bread topped with turkey ham and gravy...had some of it too..Delicious!

bacon burger topped with blue cheese crumbles

chicken livers, mustard greens, fried okra, baked beans, and cornbread

Reuben on marbled bread with mustard greens and the most wonderful pickle

grilled cheese with mac and cheese with a side of ranch dressing for dipping

looks like a BLT to me

OH MY WORD!!!  chocolate and peanut butter pie  which three of us shared

coconut cream pie  which no one shared

What a fun place for lunch!  Real laid back and fast service.  We enjoyed our meal so much that we have already made plane to go again.  The hard part is going to be trying to decided what to have.  But I definitely know that I will be having an entire piece of pie...all by myself.
