At Coles, we're dedicated to bringing the art of dining to every experience. Think local meats cured in-house. Crisp vegetables fresh off the vine, pickled onsite. Breads baked fresh each day. The best seasonal ingredients available, sourced from local farms and trusted purveyors. And our menus go beyond the plate, with handcrafted cocktails featuring unique, house-made ingredients, hundreds of bourbons available for tasting, and an award-winning carefully curated wine program. We believe in honoring history and chose to set our restaurant in a restored historic landmark in downtown Lexington.

    My appetizer was not ordered, but was brought to the table, the brussels sprout salad was basic at best, the Seabass special was partially raw, yes raw. Very underwhelming. They took my Seabass off my bill, which was very kind. They did try to make things better, but…The food and the drinks at Coles 735 used to be some of the best in Lexington, that has changed.

    Filet came out the perfect temperature, exactly what I asked for; rare. It’s a very pleasing thing that is not always present in even the most expensive steakhouses. The black pepper biscuits are spectacular.
