The Washington Chamber of Commerce congratulated an Ainsworth business that recently opened with a ribbon cutting ceremony Thursday.

Several chamber ambassadors visited LD’s Bar & Grill located on Highway 92 east of Ainsworth, which has seen previous restaurants in that location including the Bryn Mawr Steakhouse. Lenny and Darla Fink bought the building and the former motel beside it and opened the bar and grill last November. Restaurant Manager Barbara Johnson shares how the business has been doing so far, “It’s gone really well. You know at first just with COVID and everything it was slow but now people are wanting to get out. So people are getting out and having events and the weekends have been really, really good here and our breakfast has been amazing.”

Johnson says they have an amazing customer base and group of employees that have made managing the restaurant enjoyable, and she shares what have been some proven favorites on their menu, “I would say we have definitely been known for our breaded tenderloins but I will tell you our steaks have been phenomenal. We serve a 12 ounce steak ribeye and then we also have a bacon-wrapped filet mignon.”

LD’s Bar & Grill is open Tuesday through Thursday from 4-9 p.m., Friday from 4-10 p.m., Saturday from 9 a.m.-10 p.m., and Sunday from 9 a.m.-9 p.m.
