    I find it hard to give a five star rating because to me that takes something beyond what you should expect. This place is good, very good. The duck was killer and I really like that they did not try to crowd every possible table into the space. You can actually move around your table. Everything we had was perfectly cooked and imaginative.

    Dudley’s is always a favorite spot in Lexington and there’s a reason it’s been around so long. We came on Valentine’s Day this year and had the pre fix menu. The choices were amazing and had a variety for anyone’s preferences. The food was great, and our server, Erin gave us the best service and was on top of everything. The ambience of Dudley’s is perfect for a cozy dinner or having a few drinks at the bar with a few friends. I highly recommend checking it out if you’re ever in Lexington.

    Never a bad experience everytime we have been there! David was our waiter and gave us 5 star service. Very efficient and didn't miss one detail. Laughing with us when we made jokes makes it a fun experience. Telling us that he had been an employee there since 2017 reaffirmed that we had one of the best serving us. Food is always good however lettuce wedge was a little bitter but that happens. We are very fond of Blue Heron and will be returning often!!

    Carson's on Main never disappoints and is our favorite place to dine. Hailey was our server and she had the best personality and we wanted for nothing, We started with their amazing Old Fashioned which are always made perfectly. My wife had the seafood pasta and I the shaved prime rib sandwich which is my go to. Everything on their menu is a hit,

    We were promptly seated in a great booth for our late-evening anniversary dinner. All of the staff members were very professional. The restaurant environment was just right...not too quiet (stuffy) and not too noisy. Our server handled everything perfectly. Most importantly, the food was outstanding. Definitely one of the best steaks I've had anywhere, along with delicious baked potato and onion straws. I highly recommend Tony's and will come back again for another excellent experience soon.
