This was my second time to Lexington Barbecue, the first time years ago with a local buddy I had…read moreplayed golf with. I was underwhelmed that time but thought maybe it was because they were out of something I had wanted...a normal circumstance at bbq places. So when driving through recently, I decided to give it another go. What I realized this time is that the only barbecue product they have is pork shoulder...no ribs, no chicken, no brisket. (They do have fried fish) It is very lightly smoked and the sauce is a very thin watery substance. I understand that this is Carolina bbq....the place was packed, everyone looked happy, and someone looked over the divider and asked me if this was the best food I had ever had?? I was polite, but realize now that I am more of a Texas bbq guy....meat being really smoked....perhaps a little bit charred with a thick sauce, sometimes sweet or spicy but always with a decidedly hickory flavor. The place is very friendly and clean, we were seated promptly and the food came out quickly. Great fries and hush puppies!!

Asked for a recommendation for a good BBQ place as someone from not local and was told this was a…read morereally good spot to try. We came in and were told to choose our seat where we wanted. Water service came immediately and they were patient as we looked over the menu to decide and with our questions about the menu. Our server was very friendly and also gave great menu recommendations. We were a party of 5 and everyone was pretty much satisfied with their choice and meal. The food did take some time to come out with the place not being full. I ordered the brisket sandwich only with a side of baked beans and hush puppies. The baked beans and hush puppies were amazing! The brisket left something to be desired. I was hoping for more favor and char and the bread was also soggy when it came out. It wasn't bad but would probably not order it again. My sister had the sirloin which had a great flavor! The place filled up around 6. Almost all tables were occupied as opposed to when we arrived the whole back room was empty. Over a good first time BBQ experience.

The chopped bbq was great and the dip (sauce) leans a little heavier on the ketchup and a little lighter on the vinegar but still has great flavor.

But I will start with this: the service was as friendly as it gets. People talk about Southern hospitality and that's what customers find in this restaurant. Smiles, charm, asking if you have any questions, the whole she-bang. I ordered the coarse chopped BBQ plate, since I am not a fan at all of super fine cut up pork to where it resembles cole slaw. Hey, I want to know it's meat when I see it! The pork tasted delightful. Super tender, a thin, light tomato/vinegar sauce. I never expected to have leftovers, but I wound up taking half the pork home! The meal came with two sides, and I opted for baked beans and potato salad. The beans were pretty standard, but the potato salad was quite good since it was a mustard based salad instead of mayo based. I went with rolls over hush puppies and I basically got two hamburger buns, so that may not have been my best decision. And I ordered an Arnold Palmer to drink, and they not only gave me a foam cup of it, they also brought me a mini-pitcher on the side so I could pour my own refills! Very over the top and very impressive! And my bill was only $19 before tip! Good value, good food, good service.

Pros Really nice staff Great menu options Tasty food Plenty of seating Large portions Cons Some sides are on the salty side (may not be too salty for everyone) A lot of upcharges Cornbread tasted old I ordered the neck bones over rice with yams and collards. The neck bones were tender and flavorful. The yams were prepared well with a little sweetness. The collards were a little salty but edible. My husband ordered the fried chicken, potato salad, and macaroni and cheese. The mac and cheese is amazing and worth the uncharge. The fried chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside with a good flavor. The potato salad was heavy on the mustard. Definitely recommend if in the area. Great for families.

Our group, admittedly, was a little puzzled by just how damn nice she was at first. But that's just our New York instincts naturally kicking in--we're just skeptical by nature. We heard great things about this place from the locals and knew we just had to eat here (twice, actually), so we knew we made the right choice as soon as we saw a family walk out with bags of food. Bridgett chatted us up all night and was genuinely interested in learning about us big city folks. Man, I have to say...it's been a while since I've had someone come up to me and be so curious about meeting someone who grew up and lives in NYC (because everyone does these days, right?), and it was nice to have that raw curiosity again. Her radiant energy is so damn infectious. Her food is prepared with passed-down recipes from her grandmother. Portions are massive and that is not an understatement. We all got plates with 2 sides and bread and even with our big appetites, most of us only got through halfway or a little more.
