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.

    Invited 2 other couples to join us tonight based on our last experience. The Beef shoulder tender ordered medium rare was tough and chewy. Wife’s Cobia was cold. Server (Kyle) was knowledgeable but made several basic server mistakes. He left an empty soup cup LONG after all other dishes were cleared. Let him know I was finished and asked him to clear. Spent 20 minutes staring at that dirty/empty (and only) dish on the table in front of me. He removed all the bread plates from the table BEFORE asking if we wanted bread. After serving the bread he did not replace the plates. Very disappointed with the entire experience.

    Not what we expected driving into the parking lot or necessarily walking in the front door, but boy oh boy did the food and service MORE than deliver! Fantastic food with every course and our server was wonderful and thoughtfully attentive. The specials were slightly overpriced, but again zero issues with the quality and presentation. Do yourself a favor and grab a bite of your anywhere nearby, you won’t regret it!

    This is the best restaurant we've been to in Lexington thus far, excelling in all areas (food, service, and atmosphere). We appreciated their attention to detail in the dishes and drinks, their communication and attentiveness in service, and the calm, cozy environment that was neither loud nor rushed.

I will pass your kudos along to our staff, as they're the ones who make the magic happen :) Kind regards, Chris Hutchison / Director of Operations
