    It was my first time going for brunch here. It did not disappoint. Food and service were way above any other restaurant in Lexington. They have consistently provided amazing food and service every time.

    Adrianna was amazing! The Belgium waffle was so good, the mimosas and Peach Bellinis were great and we were able to just chill in our booth and drink and hang out. Everyone was great, loved the whole experience. Can’t wait to go back 😊

    I made reservations, called afterwards to make sure the Andover location served brunch. Employee that took the call- voice very uninviting! Same vibe once we got there. I thought upon having reservations the restaurant already had a table for the guests. Not so! They were unsure were to seat us and when they did find a table for us, it was in the back. I refused the table because this is the third time I’ve visited this location and was escorted to the back. Employee rudely found us a table in front of the fireplace but upon looking around and just watching how they seated Brown Americans, I noticed we were the only ones seated in the front of the restaurant but hidden behind a wall in front of the fireplace. I’m sorry we deserve the right to be amongst people of all colors. This Carson’s location has many bad reviews on social media. Sad thing is, it just opened and I guess they didn’t realize that we live in Andover as well and our money is the same as everyone else’s. I hope they treat all employees equally!!!!

    Service was pretty good, but food was really bad. Lacked flavor and depth. Will only eat here for brunch.

    Got the 20 ounce ribeye, amazing. Place was packed and seemed to slow down service just a bit but that’s being nit picky.
