Vernon chose the half pound tenderloin sandwich “Mike’s Way”. It came with a side of his choice, and he opted for a bowl of homemade pasta salad. His tenderloin arrived in all it’s golden crispy splendor, topped with a slice of Swiss cheese, grilled mushrooms, and onions, on a toasted bun. Fresh tomato, lettuce, onion, and pickle was on the side. The pasta salad was tender tri color rotini pasta with crisp peppers and onions in an Italian style dressing. It was delicious and refreshing paired with the tenderloin. I ordered Joe’s Patty Melt. It was a flavorful grilled beef patty topped with grilled onions, Swiss cheese, and 1000 Island dressing piled between two slices of grilled marble rye bread. I chose French fries as my side dish, and they were piping hot salty goodness. Crisp on the outside and fluffy potato on the inside.
Our waitress kept our drinks constantly filled and on a hot day, that was much appreciated. We had great service and delicious food that really hit the spot.

As we rolled into Blue Grass, we immediately noticed the large American Flag painted on the side of a building, and that just happened to be our destination. We walked in, and quickly noticed the framed artwork that depicted a Blue Grass of days gone by. Our waitress took us to a booth and we ordered a couple of ice-cold drinks to sip while we looked over the menu.
