In a world where it’s easier to complain than to compliment, this place deserves to be celebrated. ❤️ From the moment you walk in, the service is warm, attentive, and genuinely kind—something that’s becoming rare these days. The staff clearly cares about what they do and about the people they serve, and it shows in every fun sincere interaction. The food is consistently excellent—thoughtfully prepared, fresh, and made with pride. You can tell this is a business that puts heart into their work, not just checking boxes or rushing people through. . They show up, they treat people well, and they deliver quality every time. Lexington is lucky to have places like this, and I’ll happily continue supporting them and recommending them to others. Keep doing what you’re doing—you are appreciated more than you know! Love the new location
I thought for the second time ever of me coming here that i would get good service and good food, but it was far the opposite. for one, why do they not have any drinks on their pickup menu even though you pay before you come? second, i call the store twice and no pickup, yet i text the owner on facebook and i get a reply right away saying they are busy. i go into the store, there’s two tables full. that’s it lol maybe like 4-5 people at each one. yet they couldn’t answer the phone at the main bar. my Fried green tomato BLT came with zero flavor and way too much breading, which looks like chicken breading. i also subbed my side for soup and still got tots. Ever since they moved to the nice side of town instead of the eastside they’ve been with terrible service. The owner is rude and talks bad about that side of town. What a great restaurant owner right? anyway, look at this disgustingness they called a fried green tomato. lol.
This place has been on my list and it was the perfect fall morning to sit outside with company. The atmosphere is really relaxing and the menu is incredible. Our waitress Lexi was very accommodating. I wish Lexington had more brunch spots like this one.
I have been to the old Minton's a few times and wanted to check out their new location on National. Grabbed my daughter (her first time) and had some lunch! We ordered the Brunch on a Bun and some Pancakes with cinnamon roll icing on top along with Applewood bacon and a coffee (French Press). All new foods vs. what I have tried at Minton's before. FANTASTIC! The new location is a huge upgrade for space so much easier to enjoy a more private feeling meal and of course the service was also great. Assuming it's the owner that was our server, he has been my server every time I have gone at either location.
Very busy when we arrived. We're seated at the counter right away, otherwise a 30 minute wait. Sat at the counter for 15 minutes until we asked the nice girl who seated us, who was supposed to serve us? As there were many people running around. Ten minutes later our server came to take our order. He gave us a choice of coffee or French press. David chose the French press, i ordered ice tea not sweet. David's coffee order arrived, but he had no coffee cup to pour his french press in. We asked for a coffee cup from one of the employees stocking supplies behind the counter.. My tea was ice water with a little color of tea. When I could get our servers attention, as he was extremely busy, we asked if they could just warm the Coffee in a microwave as David had already added his cream and sugar. (His French press was cold) He said he would bring another french press set up.. So instead of bringing a French press, he brought a regular cup of very hot coffee. No worries, we are easy going. After a very long wait, our food arrived. By this time I was out of tea and didn't ask for a refill. It would have been nice to have a drink with my meal. David said his biscuit and Gravy were good. I can't say the same about my chicken and Waffle. Very small amount of syrup poured over the Waffle. No extra brought with the order. The chicken was in bite size over the Waffle which didn't have any flavor and looked really dark, like over cooked. My order was okay. I guess I just expect something really tasty for $18. Over all, our experience was okay. As an older person, I think this place is more for the much younger crowd. As there were 3 tables with college age and 30ish something that seemed to think they had to talk as loud as they could to talk over each other. Noise level was off the chart. I wish this establishment all the success in this business.

Lexington's favorite spot for fresh, flavorful comfort food and brunch classics.
