Such a Treasure. My wife and I chose Lexington Social as our 11th Anniversary destination. We…read moretargeted Bloomington and Lexington seemed a reasonable jaunt. The atmosphere is intentional and functional. We got a Maine coastal vibe. Staff is professional and understand the heart of Social. Flavors and portions were inspiring. We felt honored to share our special day with Lexington Social. Highly recommended. Worth a drive.

Lexington Social is definitely a destination dining experience. They are only open Thursday through…read moreSaturday, 5 pm-9pm unless they are having a special event such as Lexington on the Shore, a one day Maine Lobster shack experience with Maine and Connecticut style lobster rolls, clam chowder, fresh oysters, fish and chips, and fried clams. The petite Sea Kist oysters from Rhode Island were very good as were the Pleasant Cove oysters from Maine. We had the Connecticut style lobster rolls ( butter instead of mayonnaise salad style.) The fried clams were also very tasty. I liked the briny taste of the Rhode Island oysters slightly more than the Maine ones. Lobster rolls were only $34 which was quite reasonable. All in all, our dinner including Column Like I See 'Em' American lager from White Oak Brewing in Normal, Illinois came to about $82 each including tip. They also feature local beers from Fairbury, Illinois. Lexington is just outside of Bloomington-Normal and about an hour from Champaign, Illinois. It is worth the drive for such a fantastic dining experience.

Great little local restaurant! We stopped in on a rainy Friday night and enjoyed a warm welcome,…read moretasty, hot food and excellent service. They have great menu selections. We had the Friday walleye special and the smothered chopped steak. The walleye portion was generous. It was all-you-can-eat, but my husband only needed one portion, with 3, large fillets. The smothered chopped steak was very tasty and the beef was good quality and nicely cooked. Each meal comes with a potato, vegetable, soup or salad and even complimentary ice cream for dessert! We love that they offer a vegetable side. Also, the cream of mushroom soup was delicious. They have a showcase of beautiful desserts, but we were too full and satisfied to try them (and, we had ice cream!). Would be a great place to come for dessert and coffee! The servers there really hustle. Service was flawless and everyone was so pleasant. We tipped generously. Their meal prices are very affordable, so a tip by the standard formula wouldn't be enough to recognize their attention to good service. We were traveling and unsure of what we would find for supper. Glad we found Hornet's Nest! We'll come back if we are in the area again!

Our initial visit to this revitalized diner 8 mi. South of BloNo on 51. It was the Honey Chicken…read moreFried Chicken on BookFace that drew me in...and I gotta say, mine WAS next level - super crispy, not too much honey/syrup! The 'Specials' incl potato AND a soup/salad side - some a veg too?! Needless to say I left stuffed! Unfortunately my buddy's fried fish sandwich special was terrible - totally processed, square and from frozen. Fries were the light-battered type and just warm. Also keep in mind that it is a straight diner with no booze, but a huge menu and a pretty impressive pie/sweets counter. There were seemingly more than enuf freindly employees, yet somehow the service was kinda rough where we sat?! The filling lunch w/water was $15+tip and in my case enuf to convince me to plan a future visit for (catfish & walleye) fish fry Friday, soon.
