Jewells On Main — Restaurant in Warsaw

My husband and I heard about Jewell's on Main from a couple of his co-workers, and decided to give them a try. So glad we did! It's a hidden gem in the heart of Warsaw, KY. It's got a down home, quaint feel. And, if you want home cooking in a restaurant atmosphere, this is definitely the place! Everything is scratch made. We started with the fried green tomatoes. The thick slices had a thin, crispy coating but, soft, delicate, and juicy on the inside. They came with a sweet chili sauce for dipping. We also got a bowl of both beef vegetable soup, and cheddar broccoli. The beef vegetable was super hearty for a cold day. It was loaded with tender chunks of beef, green beans, potatoes, corn, carrots, peas, onions, and cabbage in a rich broth. The cheddar broccoli was smooth, and creamy, with broccoli bits in every bite. Both were fantastic. I ordered the cornmeal breaded frog legs, with 3 cheese grits and southern green beans. The frog legs were phenomenal. The best I've ever had, and I've had a lot. They were lightly breaded, and fried to a perfect crispiness. The meat was moist, and juicy, and fell right off the bone when you pulled them apart. They were served with sweet chili mayo. The grits were fluffy, and cheesy, not dry or mealy. The green beans were seasoned perfectly, and cooked soft, not crunchy or soggy. My husband ordered the trout with sauteed baby spinach and green beans. The trout was flaky and delicious, and covered in a bourbon pecan butter that paired so well with it. The spinach was tender, and so buttery. I highly recommend a trip to Warsaw just for the chance to eat at Jewell's. It will...

We stopped here because of all the rave reviews but maybe people here wouldn't know good food if you hit them in the head with it. Ordered crab stuffed mushrooms that were supposed to have Parmesan and mozzarella cheese the crab was obviously from a can and the Parmesan cheese was nowhere to be found. Herb grilled chicken with Marsala mushroom sauce i don't know if you know this but putting mushrooms in brown gravy doesn't make Marsala sauce. A loaded baked potato that was burnt and yet not fully cooked at the same time how do you do that ????? The asparagus was flavorless and not trimmed properly. Oh and we also had the cheesecake which was OK but it's hard to mess up a cheesecake from the box. And all of it completely overpriced !!! I could see paying what we did to get quality food prepared properly but not for food from boxes and cans from the common pantry shelf. What...

I had never been to Jewell's on Main before, but I wanted to try something local. These places can be hit or miss, but Jewell's was a big hit. You get in a line to order, and the hostess assigns you a table. One of the regulars in line raved about the meatloaf. She said that it was Jewell's signature meal and has been featured in four cookbooks. I said that I'd try it as I'd never been there before. She confidently said, "You'll be back." I ordered, paid, and went to my table. The line got so long that it went out the door and down the sidewalk. And most people were ordering Jewell's Hot Brown. The meatloaf came, and it had a bourbon glaze! It was fantastic. The service was quick and attentive, the place was clean, and Jewell's was a treasure. You better believe that I'll be back. I've gotta try...
