We ordered the Hot Goat Yoga bratwurst and Obatzda, and both were absolutely delicious. So flavorful, and clearly made with care. They have a unique selection of German beers on tap. These aren't your typical finds, and you can tell they've curated options you won't see everywhere, which makes the experience that much better. Their pretzels and pretzel buns are made in-house using fresh sourdough, and you can taste the difference. Soft, chewy, and perfectly baked. The space itself is small, but very welcoming and accommodating. The owners run and work the shop themselves, and it shows. they are genuinely kind, friendly, and passionate about what they do. If you're looking for authentic German type of food, great beer, and warm hospitality, this spot is 100% worth a visit. We'll absolutely be back.

Original Pretzel Nuggets

By the time I left at 6:30 it was packed with a wait of ~10 people. I sat at the bar and the bartender was attentive and friendly. The menu seems very diverse with a lot of delicious sounding options. The beer menu is on the back with a QR code. As it was Burger Week, I went with their Signature Burger for $7 with a side of tots. The burger was a Spicy Pimento Burger with bacon jam, pickles, and lettuce. The burger was 4oz which was a great size to fill you up but not make you overly full. The burger was not overly seasoned and didn't have a ton of flavor, however the combination of toppings really enhanced the flavor and made it delicious. The tots were perfectly crisp and the Cajun seasoning really enhanced them nicely. All 4 of the beers in the flight were tasty but not overly powerful. Of the 4, the Tart and Tempered was the best as a light sour. I would recommend a visit and look forward to trying some other menu items.

Walking into this place from the modern part of downtown Lexington you'd almost think you somehow…read morewalked into a pub in England or Germany. Not fancy by any means, but perfectly fine for a neighborhood pub vibe. Business was pretty brisk for a weeknight and there was just one FoH employee who was taking orders (you order at the bar), bringing out plates and bussing tables. Kudos to him for doing a good job handling all that. The BoH kitchen staff did a good job, too, as it didn't take long for our food order to arrive. The menu here is eclectic, which was a big reason we chose this place for dinner. Unfortunately, one of the items we had hoped to try, the Swabian (German) spaetzle, was sold out by the time we got there for a fairly late dinner. We opted instead for the roesti potato. This is a strange dish that involves what is essentially a shredded hash brown-style fried potato topped with sauerkraut, pickled shallots, cheese and a decent-sized dollop of mustard caviar, all served on a bed of greens. It worked, for the most part. Strange taste combinations, but not bad. We also had the blackened tuna Waldorf salad. This was a little different than expected. The pan-seared ahi tuna was cooked nicely (leaving it a bit underdone inside). But it was chopped into small pieces that were fully mixed into a tartar sauce along with celery, shallots, green apples and red grapes. So it was basically a fancy tuna salad. Fortunately, it was a very tasty tuna salad. I wish all the tuna salads you get in restaurants was this good. It was served over mixed seasonal greens with asparagus tips. All of this went very well together and was a really excellent and innovative twist on a Waldorf salad. The menu of draft beers on tap was pretty varied and voluminous as they have their own brewery (Ethereal Brewing). This restaurant is their public house as they call it. I particularly liked their hefeweizen, but they had a porter that was also good. Overall, an interesting place with good food and beer at decent prices. Not a 5, but definitely a strong 4 at least.

Rating: (3.6/5)…read more We've been to BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse a couple of times, but finally decided it was time to leave a review. The restaurant has a nice, warm atmosphere, and the staff are always friendly and welcoming. We usually head straight to the bar because the happy hour menu is really what keeps us coming back. The happy hour deals are a great value. A personal deep-dish pizza is only $7, which is hard to beat, and the drinks are half price as well. The beer was nice and ice cold, which is always a big plus for me. They also have a lot of appetizers to choose from, so there are plenty of options if you're just looking to grab some drinks and a few bites. If you haven't tried their happy hour, I'd definitely recommend stopping in and checking it out. Great prices, cold beer, and plenty of food options make it a solid spot to hang out.

We were there for the lunch Pazookie special for $13. I got the strawberry salad. I've had this before at the old O'Charleys. This one does not quite match up, and there were hardly any nuts in it at all. The vinaigrette isn't as good, but the rest of the salad was great. My son got the double cheeseburger with fries. It was fairly routine from that standpoint. The fries were good. The surprising part was dessert. My son ordered the chocolate chunk, which was fairly good and I ordered the Oreo, which was surprisingly excellent. He got a soda and I got a water and we were out of there for about $35.

But I will say the people were super nice. I was disappointed that we paid $74 for three burgers, fries, and a fried basket that didn't look like the pics.
