We were able to grab a booth that did not have a reservation booking, so we made it work. It wasn't overly crowded, but they were consistently busy. Our server was nice, timely, helpful, and very attentive. The classic margarita was excellent. I was nervous about the salad, but I'm here today to talk about it so I guess the lettuce was okay. Haha! The very kind server was reassuring as we discussed my interest and decision to order a salad. The caesar dressing was more of a vinaigrette style than a creamy. It was pretty good. The crotons taste like they are made in house. They were absolutely delicious. For our appetizer, we ordered the riblets and duck wontons, which are always extremely tasty. The riblets were interesting, but definitely delicious. Sorry I didn't get a full pic. We were hungry. The kids chicken and fries were pretty standard. My kids enjoyed their meals and cleaned their plates for the most part. I believe the menu shifts from time to time. I ordered the high plain cowboy cut which is the ribeye that comes with one side. I love that they have certain temperature limits depending on what cut you decide to order. The ribeye was perfectly cooked, extremely flavorful, and delicious. It was an excellent size. For my sides I ordered the seasoned chef potato's, I added cheese which was a great accompaniment to the seasoned potatoes. I wish they gave you more than they do especially with the prices. The brussel sprouts were cooked with some crispness and overall really appetizing. I had an amazing experience. The atmosphere was amazing, the food was delicious, and the service was on point.

We just left Bone Appetit after celebrating our daughter's birthday and our 21st wedding anniversary, and unfortunately the experience did not match the occasion. There were definitely some positives. The first set of wings, the eggrolls, the salmon, and the lava cake were all enjoyable. Unfortunately, the rest of the evening became increasingly disappointing. The crab dip was advertised as sizzling hot, but both orders arrived only warm. We waited over an hour for our food on what appeared to be a fairly slow evening, and to be clear, we had no problem with the wait itself. We understand quality food can take time. The issue was waiting that long and still receiving food that was cold. The steaks were not cooked to the requested temperatures and were also cold when served. The tomahawk steak especially was disappointing because it had a noticeably gamey flavor around the bone. I'm not sure whether it was the seasoning or rub used, but the flavor was off-putting. The cheesy potatoes were the only item that actually arrived hot. The Brussels sprouts were mostly dry leaves with barely any actual sprouts. Another issue was the inconsistency from plate to plate. The second and third orders of wings were noticeably different from the first batch. We chose not to send food back because we understand food waste, kitchen pressure, and the challenges restaurants face. We simply wanted to enjoy the evening and make the best of it. Still, after such a long wait, leaving unsatisfied was disappointing. What stood out most was that the owner was nearby, aware that concerns had been brought up, yet never came over to check on the table personally. This review is not about seeking compensation or attacking a local business. It is simply honest feedback from customers who truly wanted to enjoy and support a local restaurant during an important family celebration.

From the moment we walked in, the service made the evening feel special. Our waiter was genuinely kind, attentive, and never missed a beat. The food? Absolutely incredible. The filet mignon was cooked to absolute perfection, tender, flavorful, and one of those steaks you don't want to end. The asparagus and broccoli were perfectly prepared, the bread was fresh and delicious, and the shrimp cocktail was the perfect way to start the meal. The drinks were just as impressive. My wife ordered the ribeye and couldn't stop talking about how good it was. The portions were generous, we left completely full, and honestly... I couldn't stop eating because everything was that good. An unforgettable meal, amazing service, and the perfect place to celebrate a milestone. We'll definitely be back!

I really commend the quality of service that was provided throughout our entire dining experience. I was really impressed. They bring a very cute butterfly fruit plate for kids, which I thought was really beautiful and very on target. We tried the Japanese fried chicken appetizer with the sauce on the side. They came in chicken nugget form, and they were really good with a very subtle flavor and fairly crispy. The wedge salad was also tasty along with the garlic bread. We enjoyed the brussels sprouts as well. I ordered the flank steak with mashed potatoes and the corn. The dish was so delicious. Their fries were also really good. The food and the entire dining experience were very pleasing. I love the flavor, and everything tasted fresh. When we return we will try one of the boards.

The Ember, one of the newer steak houses in Lexington, features an upscale, modern decor. We chose…read morethis steakhouse over a nearby competitor, based on the Yelp reviews. We checked out the menu and although we were celebrating our 45th wedding anniversary, we opted for a minimalist approach: the delicious complementary fries with dipping sauces, charred asparagus, the steak, and a bottle of Zinfandel blend. We were greeted warmly as we entered the restaurant and the good service continued with our excellent server Renée. There were no empty tables in the restaurant and everyone seemed to be having a good time without being too loud, perhaps due to the good acoustics of the unique ribbed ceiling. My wife ordered her filet medium-well and I opted for a medium ribeye. Renée explained that they butterfly the filets to encourage more even cooking. Our steaks came out after about 15 minutes, followed by our asparagus. I thought the timing was perfect. Our steaks had a deep char, but managed to be cooked to our liking. We were pleased with the meat. It was very flavorful. The asparagus spears were quite thick, and I was worried they might be woody, but most were tender even at the base. We saved room for dessert and we're really happy with the lemon cake. We also had some caramelized peaches with ice cream and whipped cream. We enjoyed our dinner very much, and look forward to sampling some of the other menu items.

It has so much food with variations of side dishes that were all delicious. They give you plenty of meat as well which was amazing and the price was great! Lunch box w/ bulgogi was easily a 10/10. Just try it yourself. The beer I got was also very light and delicious; it was a citrus beer with Calamansi which is a Filipino citrus. The beer is made in Japan I believe. One of my favorite international beers I have had. 10/10. Overall, I have nothing but good things to say about this location. If you're ever in town this place is an amazing spot for lunch!

Our waitress tonight was Lydia and she is awesome. Very attentive and makes sure that the order comes out correct and served promptly. They have a brand new "A" rating on the door so obviously they keep it clean and are quick to make corrections.
