    Hot Fudge Brownie Pizookie
    Nina P.

    Well, we did not receive the same service today. It took quite a while to be greeted once we were seated. Our server was very mumbly so we had to ask him to repeat everything he said. We had our hearts set on sweet potato fries only to find out well after we placed our order that they were out. Not only was this disappointing but it extended our wait time to receive our food. We ordered an appetizer, queso, which was very plain and overpriced for chips and dip. For our entrees, we ordered the Philly cheesesteak and Italian chicken parm. The Philly had a decent spice to it, which was much more profound given we couldn't find our waiter for refills. We were undecided on a dessert so we went with the pizookie trio. All in all, we like the menu variety and the food was satisfactory, but service today was a major let down.

    Our waiter was Jessica J, absolutely wonderful! She was quick, our food came out on time, it was hot, and delicious! We ate all the pizza before we could take a picture... we also had the couscous Mac n cheese and the wings! Everything was just delicious! Despite a busy night, the ambiance was great, it wasn't too loud or overly stimulating! We will visit again soon!!

    Three dip trio!

    So, I'm in Lexington for work and this was an easy place to stop for a snack. Let me be clear, I am NOT a huge fan of chain restaurants...I like local trendy places....but I was happy I stopped in and would go back just for the amazingly friendly service. I only had the three dip trio, but it was delicious. The artichoke dip and guacamole were really good and the chips are warm, salty and crisp....SO good. I was pleasantly surprised!

    Our waitress Marissa was very proficient and excellent. My ribeye was cooked to medium when I wanted medium rare and when she went to check on us, we told her of my complaint. She got another plate to take my steak to show the chef and made the comment that she thought they were cooking my steak a little too long. But shortly after that, they brought out a new ribeye that was cooked medium rare. I had green beans and asparagus as my side. My husband had the tri-tip with pork ribs. They left the wet rub on the outside and just made the steak with the dry rub. He really enjoyed it. My friends had never been to BJ's before; so this was an experience for them. They had a cheese pizza and had leftovers. Very good. And BJ's chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries and coleslaw. She also thought the food was good. Overall, we will continue taking people back here over and over throughout the years.

This visit marked our third time at OBC Kitchen, and once again, it did not disappoint. This time we experimented with timing and booked an early reservation at 2:45 pm on a Saturday. We crossed over into the dinner menu and discovered something wonderful: the service and ambiance were even better than the busier evening hours after 6 pm. The staff was exceptionally attentive. Every dish and cocktail option was explained thoughtfully, which I appreciate, especially because I enjoy cocktails that come with a bit of theater. When drinks are presented with care, described well, and executed beautifully, the experience becomes part performance, part craft. Here, they delivered perfectly. The food, as always, was superb. We shared several chef selections including Beef Tallow Fries, Southern Grouper, Bacon in a Glass, and the Cola-Braised Short Ribs. Each dish was rich, flavorful, and confidently executed. Dessert continued the celebration with the Churro Cheesecake, and to our delight we were also gifted the Warm Buttermilk Donuts, which felt like a small act of culinary generosity. In a departure from my usual Manhattan and Old Fashioned flights, I tried a Bloody Mary and The Cure, both excellent and beautifully balanced. At this point I can confidently say OBC Kitchen is one of my favorite restaurants in the country. The consistency, creativity, and hospitality make every visit memorable. A special thank you to the team who took care of us on Saturday, March 7th, 2026. You elevated an already wonderful experience and made it even better than usual.

The ambiance is the perfect blend of modern sophistication and warm, cozy comfort--you really have to see (and feel) it for yourself. The service was outstanding from start to finish. Every server we encountered was polished, deeply knowledgeable about the menu, and full of spot-on recommendations. We were especially fortunate to have Richard--a manager of the restaurant personally greet us and set the tone for the evening. From the moment we walked in, his genuine warmth and attentiveness made us feel like honored guests rather than just another table. The food was nothing short of spectacular. The Maui ribeye steak--marinated to perfection and cooked exactly as ordered--was tender, juicy, and bursting with that signature sweet-savory island flavor--was one of the best steaks any of us have ever had. Equally impressive was the ahi tuna salad: beautifully seared rare tuna slices over crisp greens, drizzled with just the right amount of citrus-soy vinaigrette, and finished with crunchy wontons and avocado. Light yet completely satisfying, it was the ideal contrast to the richness of the steak. Everything about the evening--the atmosphere, the impeccable service led by Richard, and the flawless execution of dishes like the Maui steak and ahi tuna salad--made our double celebration feel truly special. We left already planning our next visit. J. Alexander's didn't just meet expectations; it exceeded them in every possible way.

We sat right in front of the fireplace which was very nice, the place was pretty big and well decorated; it is a new place so everything was neat. I unfortunately did not get to use the restrooms as the server suggested, but he claims they're nice! I ordered the buffalo chicken dip and it was very delicious to be honest; then I got the mushroom Swiss burger which was also great, the portion was good; I got one of their cocktails, it had the ingredients of a pina colada but not a pina colada... that was a 1/10 for me. The drink was very strong and it felt like we were drinking a straight up shot of rum. The dessert was AMAZING though; I got the Oreo brookie and it was just delicious, great portion as well.

    If you're looking for a dining experience that perfectly balances high-octane nostalgia with…read moreheavy-duty comfort food, Ford's Garage in Lexington is the ultimate pit stop. Located near Fayette Mall, this isn't just another themed restaurant; it is a meticulously crafted homage to 1920s Americana that feels as authentic as a vintage Model T. From the moment you pull up to the "service station" exterior, the attention to detail is staggering. The interior is a gearhead's dream--vintage Ford vehicles are suspended over the central bar, and the air hums with a lively, communal energy. The "garage" commitment extends to the smallest details: napkins are thick, blue shop towels; the servers sport mechanic shirts; and even the bathroom sinks are cleverly fashioned from tires and fuel pump nozzles. It's immersive without being kitschy, creating a vibe that is both family-friendly and sophisticated enough for a casual date night. While the décor draws you in, the kitchen keeps you in your seat. The menu is anchored by their Burgers of Fame, a clever lineup of Black Angus beef creations. The Model "A": A standout choice. The half-pound prime burger is juicy and flavorful, but the real magic is the combination of a perfectly fried egg, sharp cheddar, and a bacon jam that provides a smoky, sweet finish. Every bun is branded with the Ford's logo--a touch of flair that makes the plate "Instagram-ready" before you even take a bite. You cannot visit without ordering the Jumbo Piston Onion Rings. They arrive stacked high on a vertical rod, encased in a thick, golden batter that provides a satisfying crunch without being overly greasy. If you aren't in the mood for a burger, the Pulled Pork Mac N' Cheese is a soul-warming alternative. The cheese blend is exceptionally creamy, providing a sharp contrast to the tender, bourbon-BBQ-slathered pork. For a lighter (but still flavorful) start, the Firestone Shrimp--tossed in a spicy "boom boom" sauce--offers a bright, zesty kick that wakes up the palate No visit is complete without a "Sweet Ride." Their Old-Fashioned Milkshakes are thick enough to require a spoon and come with the classic whipped cream and cherry topper. If you're sharing, the Funnel Fries (dusted with powdered sugar and served with chocolate and caramel dipping sauces) are a whimsical, carnival-inspired end to a hearty meal. They don't just have a great kitchen; their craft beer list is one of the most comprehensive in the area. Ask your server for a local Kentucky brew to pair with your burger! Ford's Garage has successfully accelerated into the Lexington food scene by proving that a "themed" restaurant can still prioritize culinary quality. The service is efficient and friendly--much like a well-tuned engine--and the prices are fair for the portion sizes and the level of immersion. Whether you're a lifelong car enthusiast or just someone in search of a top-tier burger and a craft beer, this spot is firing on all cylinders.
