The votes are in. After a close battle, Malone’s has been named the best classic restaurant in Lexington by our readers.
Congrats, Malone’s. 👏
With the NCAA Men’s and Women’s Basketball Tournaments underway, we’re joining the fun of bracket competitions with a face-off of our own.
We asked you to share your favorite classic restaurant in Lexington with us, and now — thanks to you + the help of a random generator — we have the official lineup for our bracket.
Who’s in the running
Going head-to-head in the first round are:
- Joe Bologna’s and Malone’s
- Dudley’s and Giuseppe’s
- Ramsey’s and Winchell’s
- Merrick Inn and Carson’s
How it works
Beginning today, we will host several voting rounds within our newsletters and social channels to determine Lexington’s best classic restaurant. Who moves on is up to you. Vote for your favorites, and the classic restaurant with more votes moves on. Simple as that. We’ll go until we have a champion, which will be announced in our Wed., March 23 newsletter. You will be able to vote once per round.
How to participate
Vote for the classic restaurant you’d like to see advance to round two using this poll. You can vote for all four spots or as little as one. Once we count all the votes, we’ll share an updated bracket and new poll in an upcoming newsletter.
