About this business

Joe believed that good food at a good price would bring folks in. He was right. We feel the same way. We still use only fresh ground beef and fresh chicken (and we're still using Joe's original Famous Fried Chicken recipe). The famous Parkette sign was built in 1957 and is a symbol of Lexington and stands as a monument overlooking New Circle Road., ready to serve all that pass by. The sign itself is a landmark and a point of reference for this section of the city.

Well after turning the lights off on us to make us question why our food wasn't prepared the nice cook went out of his way to prepare our food and found me some extra funnel cake fries. Funnel cake is a way to my heart. When and if I do visit again I will be back ... read more

If you could eat "Atmosphere", this would be a great restaurant. Nice waitress, and good decor. The food? Not so much. The "Poor Boy" was bland, and not very filling. I can now say I've eaten there. Unless they upgrade the beef patties, and bring flavor to the sandwich, I won't be back.
