Best French Restaurants in Lexington

The food and drinks were excellent, as always. And the background music on this first day of 2025 was particularly good. And the owner came out and greeted us and he was kind and genuine. I’ve always enjoyed my time here but this was an especially enjoyable experience. Thank you. 🙏🏽

Nice place, food was appropriate, service was poor at best, staff seemed stressed and poorly trained. This was across the board from our server to bus staff as we as the management

The limited time squid ink gnocchi with lobster was amazing. The wait staff truly works as a team, timely picking up dishes and ensuring that your needs are met. They also were super knowledgeable of the menu, so much so I ventured with a gin cocktail (I hate gin) and found that the gin was just like the waiter described (well masked). 10/10

The service at 80 Thoreau is outstanding - attentive, knowledgeable waitstaff. The food is very good - loved the carrot salad, and the chocolate/mint dessert. I liked the scallops - was expecting something different, but enjoyed the unusual presentation and tastes.

As always, Bistro 5 was a great choice for our annual dinner together. This is truly the best place to go if you have food allergies, etc. They are so gracious, the food is delicious with deep flavors and fresh ingredients. The service is stellar. 10 out of 10!
