I love the brioche buns they use so buttery and soft. Even the kids meal comes with a generous amount of fries which were so good! My cheeseburger was good.

The staff was very friendly, knowledgeable, and great recommendations. I got the quarter chicken & churrasco steak, and a chicken empanadas (recommended). Everything was delicious and you really get way more that what you pay for! The steak was super tender - get a side of chimichurri with it! The empanada through me off - in a good way. It had chicken, olives, boiled eggs in it. At first I was confused but with the second bite I was hooked. Also the crust was buttery and has a perfect bite to it. I've never had anything like it before. I can't wait to try the beef empanada next time. If you want to try something new I would definitely try this place!

She took the time to bring out a roll, fresh baked cookie, make sure we had all the things we would need, and changed the TV to a children's show so my husband and I could enjoy a date even with our tag along. The food was outstanding! Tasted like it was straight from Latin/South America. Which obviously is a compliment coming from a Colombian and a gringa who loves her food with a Latin flair! Steak is medium with a nice char, and the chicken has a seasoning that is reminiscent of the Caribbean. Rice and beans are always a great combo and you absolutely cannot go wrong with the plantains! We had a chicken empanada which was cooked to perfection, my only regret is not trying the beef empanada as well! Go here. You won't regret it!

The only thing they were out of was the smoked turkey which just gives me a reason to go back. We ordered almost all the meats, plus sides of mac and cheese, greens, and potato salad. The meal also came with blueberry cornbread and regular cornbread, and we finished it off with their homemade Biscoff dessert, which was so unique and so good. This was honestly some of the best BBQ I've had!! The meats were incredibly flavorful and tender and the sides were just as good. I genuinely think this place is underrated. The service was amazing! Everyone was super kind and welcoming even though we came close to closing time. We never felt rushed. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, both clean and perfect for groups. I'll 100% be back.

Although we parked on a side street initially, we saw that there was a separate parking lot right next to the place that had plenty of spaces open. The staff here was super welcoming, not rushing us to order as they cut the brisket right in front of us for other customers. We both got the Brisket Sandwich combo which came with a side (we got potato salad and mac n cheese) which the staff member asked about what type of cut we wanted (fatty, lean, mix of both). We both got a mix. There is not too many seats inside so all the tables were full that day, but there is seating outside. The staff member was willing to use the table where they keep the utensils and sauces for everyone so we could eat inside (it was a bit chilly that day) but I didn't mind sitting outside. Although it was cold outside, I honestly did not care after taking a bite of the sandwich. Juicy and melting in my mouth, I have to say this is some of the best brisket I've ever had! I highly recommend pairing it with their BBQ sauce which really pulled it all together. Their potato salad was okay, as I prefer a more pickley potato salad, but their mac n cheese was delicious. I'd highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Lexington and looking for a quick, delicious BBQ meal!

This KFC acts like YOU are the problem for daring to ask for fried chicken, and they, SHOCKING, don't have any. At a place literally called 'Kentucky Fried Chicken'!!! Every time we've asked, "Okay, what do you have then?", we get incorrect answers, attitude, or flat-out silence. We've been yelled at, cussed at, laughed at, IGNORED, and DENIED service more times than I can count!!! They almost NEVER have good chicken. Half the time they don't have crispy, sometimes they don't have original, sometimes they claim they have nothing at all, and when you ask politely what they do have, they get ANGRY at you and DEMAND you to tell them what you want! How the hell are we supposed to do that if you are out of almost everything we ask for?! I don't give 1‑star reviews lightly, I will 5‑star almost anything with a pulse... but this place? I'm not convinced anyone working here is fully awake, aware, or even sober!! You can SMELL the weed pouring out of the drive‑through window. Their eyes are wide, stunned, bloodshot... it's like being dragged into a dark hole vortex portal that throws you into indie horror movie universe. I have been desperate to find the corporate number to report these people and their atrocious impulse to yell back at a customer! Christ!! For years we've tried giving this location chance after chance. Different cars, different family members, different times of day.... they have the same rude behavior, give the same wrong orders, operate in the same chaos, so we KNOW they are not just singling us out. We've driven away empty‑handed many times because they either wouldn't respond or were completely incomprehensible!!! They've shorted us pieces of chicken, lied about what they have, and snapped at us for asking simple questions like whether we can order an 8 or 12 piece crispy meal. They get mad when you CLARIFY your order, even when they are the ones who repeated it wrong!! It's like they're offended by the idea of doing their job!! Like what the actual fuck?? Who the hell do these people think they are?!?! They are getting ANGRY at us because they tried saying "original" chicken back to us when we would clarify that 'no we said crispy, please'?! And they somehow thought it was their mighty-high-horse-right to yell at us that they don't have cripsy?!?!?! YELL at us!!! Like holy hell!! Why couldn't they clarify that they don't have cripsy when they asked us WHICH type of chicken we wanted for our basket AFTER they knew how many pieces we wanted?!?! It's like if a cynical person popped an entire bottle of bitch pills down their throats! When you pull up to the window and question the attitude, they act unhinged... flailing arms, constipated body language, and glaring like you're the one causing trouble!! It's honestly unsettling!!! Last night, we pulled up before 9pm, and the voice on the speaker sounded high out of his mind: "Uh, yeah?" We asked for an 8‑piece original meal. No answer. Minutes later: "...yeah, go ahead." We repeated the order clearly. Silence. When we asked if he was still there, he snickered and said "uh huh, go ahead," followed by coughing and what sounded like a muted headset. Meanwhile, employees were ducking behind walls, laughing, and hiding from cars. Oookay... McDonald's it is, then, I guess?! We don't go here often, but we've been here enough over the years to confidently say this isn't a one‑time issue. It's a pattern. And it's not just us, we CONSTANTLY see other customers frustrated, repeating their orders, being told to pull forward because something went wrong, or laughing nervously because the employees are so rude and unprofessional. This location has a great legacy in Kentucky, but the current staff does not care AT ALL. If it's late at night or anywhere near dinner time, good luck. The employees act like serving chicken is a personal insult to them. This place is absolute chaos, and it's honestly shocking it's allowed to operate like this. Absolute Trash.
