The Blue Heron is situated in a renovated home with exposed brick, a beautiful, locally crafted chandelier, a roaring two-sided fireplace in the colder months. Locally owned and loaded with character, The Blue Heron is a perfect setting for an intimate date, an evening with friends or simply a casual dinner while watching the game.

What can I say. Creative takes on traditional dishes, the small plates are absolutely amazing! As a foodie I've been privileged to have had some of the best dishes from some of the most acclaimed restaurants and I have to say I was blown away! I'd recommend 4 small plates to share. That way you can experience multiple dishes. Portions are perfect for two. We had the mushroom bruschetta, crab cakes, beef takaki and Brussel sprouts. Be sure to start with one of their drink specials from the bar or a glass of wine from an extensive wine list. And half price drinks at happy hour if you get there early. Officially our new favorite restaurant in Lexington!

Absolutely fantastic meal and drinks! My only complaint was that we were seated at a table next to the open air window, and the loud motorcycles periodically made conversation a bit difficult. Otherwise, a great experience, wonderful service, and a delicious meal. Highly recommended!
