    Emma provided us excellent service tonight! Three of us enjoyed dinner here trying a few different selections.. All of us agree that the food quality was excellent and that we would visit another time in the future. Thanks for the great experience!

    I've been tk this place a few times now and it never fails to disappoint. Very cool vibe with a few different dining rooms. Service is always great, if you really want to be in and out in 45 minutes you easily could. My favorite was the tacos as an appetizer. Cajun coleslaw is so good.

    Mardi Gras Pasta

    My go-to restaurant in Lexington! The food is always amazing, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. My favorites are the Mardi Gras Pasta and Steak with fried cream corn!

    Summary: We LOVED it! Perfect for a date night! Logistics: I would recommend getting a reservation, but we showed up on a Friday night as a party of 2 and only waited 20 minutes. There is a parking lot across the side street that had plenty of space. They have inside and outside space and both are so cute! We got the Cajun popcorn (crawfish) as an appetizer and it was yummy. The dip was a good flavor and not overwhelming. It's an off-season for crawfish so they were a little smaller than normal but still really good! His old fashioned was delicious. I got a mule which was okay - I just think I didn't care for their ginger beer. Our waitress was super friendly. She never rushed us and checked in at just the right pace. For our entrees, he got a steak, the mashed potatoes and the Cajun slaw. His steak was delicious but the cook was a little over what he asked for. The mashed potatoes were out of this world and the Cajun slaw definitely had some kick to it. We'd probably skip the slaw next time. I got a scallop special with green beans and the fried cream corn. Everything was perfectly cooked and DELICIOUS. The scallops were so buttery and had an amazing flavor. The green beans were fresh and roasted. We loved the fried cream corn and wish we had ordered two orders of this. I don't know how to explain but the flavor and texture were amazing. It's not breaded or anything so take the "friendly lightly. Just order it! I promise. I wish we had space for dessert because the cheesecake looked amazing but I ate my whole meal and couldn't have eaten anything else if I tried.

    Came for my birthday dinner and everything was absolutely delicious! Service was fantastic! Would definitely recommend and plan to be back for future celebrations.

    Crab cakes

    The food and service were great! My friend and I had an appetizer of pecan crusted pimento cheese. I had the always delicious shrimp and grits-the best within 20 mile radius. She had crab cakes and wine. We split the ice cream brownie-delish! We had a girl's night out dinner here on a Wednesday night, but will chose another night of the week next time due to overflow parking lot at church next door being overfilled. We sat at a 2 top table and had to talk loudly to hear each other.

    Shrimp & Grits
    Christian S.

    Private Property never disappoints me. The food is always fresh and full of flavor. The shrimp is grits are my favorite! The grits are thick and the sauce is super flavorful. The prime rib was cooked perfectly and paired nicely with those creamy mashed potatoes! The crab cakes were delicious, you really can taste the crab. Staff are always so nice and helpful. The restaurant is clean and provides beautiful seating both inside and out. Looking forward to returning!

    Time: 7:01pm Staff: Friendly and welcoming Ambiance/Environment: Beautiful and pretty classy Appetizers: Cajun Crab Cakes They are really good and the sauce has some spicy to it. Shrimp and Grits The shrimp and grits were so good and delicious. Definitely recommend that too. Side; fried cream corn The fried cream corn was so delicious. Highly recommend that side. It's the best Just for me by myself: the total was $50.61 It can be pricey for some people but I had an appetizer, entree, a side, and a glass of sangria. Compared to other restaurants, it's actually pretty reasonable if you are by yourself and want to treat yourself. Do get a reservation if you dine in at the table. I went to the bar. The staff went above and beyond. Thank y'all for a wonderful experience, I hope to come back soon. First time here and thank you everyone for taking the time to read my review.

    Our group had a lovely "Cajun cuisine evening" at Private Property. We were seated a few minutes after our reservation time of 6:00 on a Monday. I think we got the last parking place next to the building. The restaurant is about the furthest from a chain-type ambiance as you can get--a 100+ year old farmhouse. All of the dining areas are small, intimate rooms. The interior is very well appointed and clean! Our dining room contained about four tables and had a non-functional fireplace--a relic from a bygone era. While we could hear talking from across the hall coming from another room. Our spacewas very quiet--a welcomed plus! Most of the staff that we interacted with looked to be in their 20s. They were pleasant enough, but but weren't particularly congenial or welcoming, except for our server. She was very attentive and had a nice personality. Toward the end of the meal, a gentleman who was dressed like a chef came by and asked us how we liked our meals. We all responded in the affirmative. We ordered some drinks and a couple of appetizers to share. My friend and I both ordered an old fashioned. A strong concoction indeed; no complaints. My wife liked the voodoo queen, which had lots of peachy flavor due to the flavored schnapps and vodka. We also ordered sangria, and that was good as well. The appetizers we recommend are the Cajun style eggrolls and the fried pecan encrusted pimento cheese. For our entrées, we had the blackened redfish, jambalaya, gumbo, and crawfish etouffee,' the fish was served with creamed corn, and fresh sautéed green beans. All the entrées were of a generous portion, and well seasoned. Nothing was too salty. I would add that they all had the proper authentic flavor. I can't say they were the best cajun food we've had, but very aesthetically pleasing and tasty. We rounded out the evening with a desert consisting of an ice cream topped cookie! The dishes we had looked and tasted good, and the atmosphere is one of my favorites! There are hundreds of nice pictures of the restaurant and the menu items. For what it's worth I'll add mine as well! Private property is definitely a winner !

    Deliciousness! This place is beautiful on the inside. You could pass it by if you didn't know it was there. This was my first time. Me and a few friends stopped by here for dinner. It was beautiful to meet up with everyone after so long. I ordered the steak and crab cakes. They were amazing. Very well seasoned and cooked to perfection. My drink was also delicious. Our waitress was great. She worked a few tables with ours but she was spot on. She did phenomenal! The decor and atmosphere is really nice. It gives date night vibes. You will love it!

    The Empress

    The ambiance is nice and rather proper. They state that there's no dress code, but as a heads up I'd stick to somewhere around smart casual. The servers are polite and check in frequently. The food was pretty good, and I was impressed with the presentation of their drinks. The blackened alligator just kind of tasted like dry chicken on its own, but paired with the sauce it was much better. We also had the pecan crusted pimento as an appetizer, and I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious it was. For entrees we had the blackened redfish (green beans & creamed corn) and the blackened ribeye (green beans & mashed potato). The redfish was okay, but the creamed corm and green beans were more the stars of the show. The blackened ribeye tasted great and was perfectly tender. Over all: Blackened Alligator: 6.5/10 Pecan Crusted Deep Fried Pimento: 7/10 Blackened Redfish: 6/10 Blackened Ribeye: 8/10 The Empress (beverage): 10/10 Total: ~$106

I ordered a Caesar Salad with the Salmon ... the beignets honestly were better than expected could have a little more powered sugar and yes I know they are fried but I couldn't resist lol ... But the salmon and salad was top notch ... the Caesar dressing had a tangiest to it that paired great with the Salmon .. the seasoning on the salmon was beyond exquisite. My personal preference the salmon could have been cooked less but I was never asked how I wanted it prepared ... nine the less it was still good. My only issue with my dining experience was my waitress being unknowable about certain items on the menu which is unstable to a certain extent but atleast be able to make recommendations. Also we had an extended wait to leave because she got lost several times that night including behind the bar ..drinking . Which I don't have a problem with UNLESS. You can't multi task .. you have to know your customer .. my wife and I were ready to go after eating and she was have a good ole time lol ... I repeat which is cool but take care of you priorities first . All n all I'll be back after my cleanse to try the catfish that my wish said was amazing

And then when we got up and began to walk out, we could see one of the waitresses by the kitchen, throwing her hands up like she had just ignored us for a whole 20 minutes, I did inquire upon arriving if this was the same ownership of the Broad River location, and I was advised it was the same chef so based upon my previous experience, the chef is truly gifted and has an amazing craft, but poor Customer service will always outweigh the entire experience. as you could see, I had planned to do a video food review because I was so excited and even invited some friends to come and dying with us. Sadly, this experience was horrible and I was totally embarrassed for even recommending them as a reputable establishment.

It delivered on smokiness to the point of entertaining me too! My glass of rose was great, a normal choice for me. The gumbo had excellent flavor and the small whole bird on top was such an interesting presentation. The crispy skin had great flavor as did the chicken itself, complemented the creole flavor of the gumbo perfectly. I hate to admit that the tomato broth, dare I say gravy, kind of stole the flavor show. We both loved it. I nearly forgot I had grilled bread to accompany it as I was spooning up mussels and the delightfully flavorful tomato broth. Service was totally on point until the very end, when getting our check was a bit slow. We had a new server respond to our rescue though, and they did discount our check a bit, which was more than we were expecting. The seating arrangement for us ended up being at a communal long dining table, not a private booth. It wasn't our first date, and we loved being in the middle of the room and watching all of the dishes and drinks flow by. The view of the booth tables by the window would also make for a great view when the street is busy with ample people watching. Great experience, would definitely recommend. Take note, they do not take reservations so either come early or allow time to wait.

My shrimp burger was good, but I felt like it needed a little salt and pepper, maybe a little hot sauce even. My son's red beans and rice, however, were so good! My hubby said he liked his boudin burger too, even though he didn't know what boudin was. He got on the idea of a little salt, pepper and hot sauce with me. We both got our burgers served with red rice, which was pretty good too. The side had more flavor than the burger patty, to be honest. If it wasn't for the brioche bun, the shrimp and the pepper jack cheese, the whole burger would be lacking in the flavor department. I think if I see them again, I'm going to get beignets and boudin balls next time!
