Such a fun holiday restaurant! The Christmas decor was perfect and the holiday cocktails are a must! Highly recommend!

We just ordered appetizers, but they were an awesome way to sample the menu. We had the duck breast wontons, and roasted tomato burrata (highly recommend both). We also ordered the chicken lettuce wraps (should have selected something else tbh). The atmosphere was nice (bar setting with lots of sports on tv, yet child friendly).

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.

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!

This used to be one of my favorite places to eat in Lexington. I was excited to show a group of my friends how good this place is while we were at a business conference. We went for dinner and the first drink that I ordered was out of stock and the second one the frozen drink machine was out of order to be cleaned, the third drink option was pretty tasty so no complaints there. We tried a lot of different foods. The cheese were phenomenal. The nachos are great. The steak that I got was pretty flavorless unfortunately but the brussels sprouts were tasty. The salmon was also lacking flavor which is a little disappointing their brunch has been great. The last few times I’ve had it so I’m still giving this place three stars. The service was also good. It’s very unfortunate that my most recent experience was disappointing but still a pretty good place to get some good food.
