The restaurant is in an old house and the decor suits the ambiance very nicely. We all started with soup. The butternut squash soup was the best I have had. We are still talking about it. The entrees were prepared using very fresh ingredients. For dessert, we had the restaurants signature coffee drink. Highly recommended.

This place came highly recommended to us. We were greatly disappointed. It seemed like a good-old-boys place. The food was over-priced and nothing special. The ambiance is nice. Valet parking.

My wife and I stopped by the other day for lunch at the Lexington Grill. The service, food, and ambience were all exceptional and we enjoyed an idyllic lunch. That was until the owner had a screaming profanity laced meltdown/confrontation with his staff. He sent the staff home, followed shortly by the patrons. I admire a passionate commitment to a... More

Pros: Great cosy little place. A nice atmosphere for a special occasion with a significant other. Some of the best seafood dishes I've had at a restaurant. Cons: We waited for 20 minutes for a table although we got there on time for our reservation. Very pricey. Just ordered two entrees and it ended up costing $85 including tip.

Recently celebrated 22 years of marriage to my best friend at this restaurant and had a very nice experience. Please note: I rarely give 5 star reviews and even then, only if the experience was absolutely perfect. Save to say, this establishment was very, VERY nice, but it was not a perfect dining experience. Meal started out rough: I'd made... More

Yum! Four of us dined here at dinner one night this week and all gave the place a thumbs up. I had eaten at the Lexington Grill for a business dinner earlier this year and could not wait to bring my family back. Three homemade soups were offered and we tried the potato one and the split pea one. Both... More

The Lexington Grill is one of those quiet, unasuming neighborhood restaurants that has the complete package. The food is wonderful. The service is very attentive. The owner is always concerned about the quality of his product. I have eaten there many times on my own and always well cared for. I had our office holiday party there and every detail... More

Super fresh fish & cozy atmosphere! We had lunch here seeking a light but elegant seafood entree. I had the red snapper with a white wine caper sauce that was excellent & exactly what I was hungry for. My husband had the special, shrimp & scallops. He loved his selection as well. It might b a little pricey for lunch... More

I have been eating at Lexington Grille for a few years now, mainly for lunch during the work week. To clarify, I don't enjoy this restaurant weekly, maybe more like 4 times or so a year. The prices are a little high for lunch but the quality, preparation, and presentation of the food is worth every penny; I am just... More

Trip Advisor community,you did it again. You guided me to one of the best dinning experiences I have had in the city. Looking for something different for my wife's birthday, I stumbled across The Lexington Grill. All I can say is WOW. I have no idea how in the last 18 yrs in its existence I had never come across...
