Tierney's Cavern - Olive Hill

I tried their breakfast. The eggs were brown and gray and in one solid chunk instead of scrambled. A disgusting waste of $10. I decided to give the restaurant another chance the next day when I ordered Mac n cheese, hush puppies, potato salad, and coleslaw. I found out they were out of Mac n cheese and coleslaw after I had already paid. It was early afternoon and I thought it was strange that they were already out of certain foods before the dinner rush had even started. The server was very nice and gave me extra hush puppies and some strawberry cheesecake instead. As you can see from the picture, the hush puppies were rock solid from sitting and then being refried all day. The potato salad was okay. The fries tasted how they looked, and the hot grease from the fryer melted through the styrofoam and leaked. Unfortunately the cheesecake wasn't actual cheesecake. It was mushy and tasted off, so I threw it away. Tldr: This entire restaurant needs an overhaul. Everything is overpriced and the quality of food is horrible. We will pack our own food next time.

Very family-friendly lodge and restaurant They were in the middle of their local Christmas in July festival and they had Christmas vacation playing in the outdoor amphitheater and the grinch had breakfast with everyone this morning it was so cute ? I would love to do this again next year with more family and friends ?

After reading reviews and dining at other Kentucky State Park restaurants we were a little apprehensive about trying Tierney's Cavern. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and service is awesome!

My family just ate a very good lunch here. I had the fish tacos and I asked to soft shells instead of the fried ones but other than that it was very good fish. Good portions too! Very pleasant Atomsphere in the beautiful Carter caves park.

If I could leave zero stars I would. This place is not as good as everyone says it is. We got the buffet and everything was dried out and overcooked. The only thing worth anything was the salad. We actually got sick to our stomachs from the food. We won't be back.
