    The food was very good. Service was a bit chaotic. The restaurant is a bit loud. It's hard to have a nice conversation across the table. The TVs over the bar detracts from the ambiance. Either be a sports bar or an upscale restaurant. Don't try to be both.

    We ordered the steak board, came perfectly cooked, and the meat was top quality! One of the best steaks I've had! There was enough food to fill us up and take almost half home for another meal. Would recommend it if you are looking for fine dining. Was a bit expensive but you get your money's worth.

    I guess I should have realized when people are wearing their jackets at the table something was off. We waited 45 minutes to get our food. My husband ordered his filet medium rare and it came out medium well. By this time he ate it since we waited so long. The flavor was there but it was another sign that something was wrong in the kitchen when several people had to have their meat taken back because it was not prepared properly. I would hope this was one night but cant say since it was our first and probably last time.

    Not up to par for a quality steak house. Lamb chops were lukewarm and overly fatty. Red snapper was rubbery, obviously frozen (which is fine) but thawed in microwave. I can’t exactly understand Lexington wait service. No concept of cleaning finished dishes, bring appropriate silverware at appropriate time. Polite and courteous but zero attention to detail. Mgmt should train staff better.

    Food was Good. Steak had a little too much fat/gristle but was good. Mashed Potatoes were decent, lacked some flavor, but decent enough. Brandon the Server is to be commended. He is a remarkable Young Man, and does an absolutely outstanding and fantastic job. Brandon is definitely one in a million.
