I had the ribeye steak fajitas, and they were horrible. First, I have a good allergy and asked that there be no onions, and they brought me steak and onions. Once I received it back, the steak was so fatty, and they served it over canned mushrooms. Not worth $20 for dinner.

It's a small, local, family-owned restaurant with plenty of hometown charm. They have great chicago-style pizza, manicotti, spaghetti, lasagna, and their signature calzone - the "Papalotsa" - all made with their own recipe marinara and real cheeses.
For sandwiches it's hard to beat their meatball, italian beef, italian sausage, or italian beef/sausage combo sandwiches with optional homemade giardiniera (hot or mild) and real mozzarella cheese. A side of their deep fried mushrooms, onion rings or hand-cut fries puts any of their sandwiches right over the top!
They recently opened a second location in nearby Greenville, KY that's currently open for lunch only.

Not sure how to describe the very tasty pizza here. I had medium
Meat lovers and it lasted three meals. Nice thin bottom crust but then a good half inch of filling (meats) and then solid layer of white cheese. Not sure if there was any tomato sauce. But still very tasty. Restuarant seemed more of a bar with lots of loud music- could hear it in the street. I'll go back.

Being from Dallas I am very picky about my barbecue; if you have reason to visit Central City/KY you can rest assured that this place makes good barbecue.
They ran out of their brisket by mid-day on the lunch-time that I went; excellent pulled pork sandwich and meaty ribs.

The Huddle House is conveniently located beside the Best Western where I often stay for business. I enjoy having breakfast here as the food is always good. The staff is very friendly and the wait is short. Be advised there is a smoking section so if it offends you or you're allergic to smoke you may want to stay away. It has never bothered me if you sit away from that area.

Have eaten here several times over a one month period. Ribs are dry rubbed and very tender. Have had left overs both times with the four rib dinner. Pulled pork is also very good. Would like some more BBQ selections on menu and a little more choice in sauces. A beer to wash it down would have been really nice but apparently not available. A good honest barbecue presentation. Staff is very pleasant.

Stopped in for lunch on the way to the hotel. They got the order correct and all the food was hot. The restaurant is part of a gas station right off the highway. The service was pretty fast as well.

We only had thirty minutes for our lunch. We decided to stop in the Central City Subway. We were not disappointed. I got the cold cut combo and my wife got the veggie sub. Both were made to order quickly with fresh ingredients. The location has a large eat-in area compared to most Subways we have been to. Highly recommend if you are considering Subway.
