    This is some of the best food I have ever eaten, and definitely the best steak! The service was great, Tyler did an excellent job! We ordered the Reuben Rolls, from the St Patrick's seasonal menu, the Filet and the Ribeye, with mushrooms and potato croquettes. For dessert, the donut bread pudding and the creme brulee. It was all prepared to perfection!

    Our experience on March 14 very pleasant from the moment we stepped inside and were seated. Water was poured, then bread was served and next our server Mallory made her first appearance. She performed flawlessly. We asked several questions and she responded appropriately. Hats off to Matt behind the bar who mixes the best Old Fashioned in Lexington. The dining room at 1600 hours is calm and very conducive to conversation. Each dish was served fresh and warm tasty of course. Water was filled without asking, used dishes were removed and in every way we felt gratitude and respect. All members of the staff remained busy and every table was cleaned and fully set for the next guest. It was a total pleasure to observe well trained competant staff who were motivated and well managed. The only minor fault I recognized was that on Pi Day 3-14 there was no pie. Can’t wait to return again!

    The assistant kept taking all our silverware before we wanted them to. The steaks came out without a knife so we had to wait on that. The salad came out but again we had to wait on chilled plates. It wasn't a smooth service at all. We felt it has gone down hill since our last visit. Our server was nice and polite but nothing was timed right and we waited a while to get what we all needed.
