- SStevenCentral Kentucky •4 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoThis gem has become our go-to spot for consistently outstanding dining experiences. The menu strikes that perfect balance of quality and value – you get generous portions of expertly prepared dishes without the eye-watering prices you might find at similar establishments. The atmosphere hits all the right notes – vibrant enough to feel energetic, but you can still carry on a conversation comfortably. The dining room has a warm, welcoming buzz, especially during peak hours, with a mix of families, couples, and groups of friends creating that perfect restaurant hum. What really sets this place apart is the staff. From the host to the servers, everyone seems genuinely happy to be there and goes above and beyond to ensure a great experience. Even during busy rushes, the service remains attentive and personable. We've been regular customers for a while now, and the consistency keeps us coming back. Whether it's a casual weeknight dinner or a special occasion, they never disappoint. It's refreshing to find a restaurant that maintains such high standards across the board – food quality, service, atmosphere, and value. This place has rightfully earned its spot as our favorite local restaurant.More infoCarson's on MainPrice: Moderate• American• Lexington•4.8
- JJeffVIPSeattle / Eastern Washington •11 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 24, 2024The service was outstanding for our meals. We had the Sir Barton that was cooked to perfection. I had the chicken which I understand is odd at a steak house but they didn’t disappoint as it retained its flavor and juices. We had mushrooms, Mac and cheese followed with the Yukon gold mashed. The Mac and cheese could have been more flavorful but somehow missed the mark. Overall it was a great meal.More infoTony's of LexingtonPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Lexington•4.8
