Hear from our valued guests
Our First time there but definitely won’t be the last! Atmosphere was great! UK game on all the TV’s! We had the deviled eggs and onion rings for an appetizer and they were DELICIOUS! We shared the carnivore platter as our main and let me to you one thing it DID NOT DISAPPOINT! The ribs were FIRE! Now to the best part… our waitress Reagan was PHENOMENAL! She was very knowledgeable and tentative! If we could leave her 10 stars we would! The manager came and checked on us regularly and was super super nice! We would recommend trying this place out! 10/10
Our first time dining here and it didn't disappoint! When we arrived it was pretty crowded, but the host walked around and found us a table almost immediately. The atmosphere was very neat, rustic meets industrial. Our server was extremely nice and attentive. We ordered the Bavarian pretzels, salmon with Brussels sprouts, and wings with fries. Everything was delicious! We will definitely be back!
Good food, great drinks, and festive atmosphere! They accommodate our large group with excellent service.
Nice atmosphere with an open layout. The staff is super friendly! We had the brisket tacos and California flatbread—the tacos were tasty and generous, but the flatbread lacked a bit in flavor. Overall a good spot to enjoy a meal and a drink.
We stopped by for a quick bite. I had the fish and chips with a mojito. Shoutout to Samantha for a memorable and tasty experience.
Such a fun holiday restaurant! The Christmas decor was perfect and the holiday cocktails are a must! Highly recommend!
The consistency with which we place last in trivia but win best team name here is a necessary weekly reminder that if you can’t be smart, at least be funny. Combine that with a hilarious (and patient) staff, a bar that probably has very high quality liquor, but, far more importantly, nauseatingly delicious fruity cocktails, and a food menu that doesn’t suck, and you have a 10/10 place to eat at least once a week. Also brunch is incredible. I forgot about their brunch. Definitely go for brunch.
I got iced coffee here and it’s good. They light don’t make my reflux mad! Waffle is also good. The best part is Nashville chicken!!! Hot as I want.
This is one of my repeats in Lexington! I actually recommended my work to come here for trivia night! My most recent stop was tonight! Cool to see management on the floor supporting staff (as someone who worked in food!) great portions and they do rotate menus. Here a question: Can we bring back the loaded tator tots duuuuuude??? Great bartender said maybe they are on the summer menu… (if y’all bring them back, I will bring my work trivia group here I will beg) All around great drinks and honestly, ladies, a great bowl of fries and salad place ;) it’s literally an app All dudes in the pic were awesome staff and were very attentive 🤘🏼clearly staying on top of it since they are all blurry!
First time to Lexington on business and was looking for a unique place to dine and look no further! This 2 story bar and grill offers plenty of room to relax and enjoy a meal and aparently tonight was a trivia night so it was entertaining! We split a few appetizers and have to say the deviled eggs and peach wings were my favorite! Then had the double chevy burger!! It was a perfect smash burger and their house pickles and sauce was a major party in the mouth! Thank you we will deff be back!
