He'll hook you up with some samples and get you the perfect fit for your mood and taste buds. You hungry? Get the peppadew pie - such a delight. Ali will also pop behind the bar and add a little personality flavor. All and all, you can't go wrong with this place. If you find yourself in Lexington, give it a visit.

The pizza skins were basically mashed potatoes on a pizza. They had very little scallions, cheese, or bacon on them.. My friends ordered a couple half and half pizzas. They weren't very good, so there was plenty leftover for me to try. The Italian didn't have any red sauce - which I know is the intent - but the aioli was a sparse drizzle on top, and it was much too sweet. This led to the pie being mostly greasy meat and a bit of cheese on bread, with some overly sweet aioli on top. The beer selection was good. With all the unique food in Lexington - I would not return.

I got an 18-inch pizza for $27 before tax and tip. The pizza was flavorful and fresh, but I do wish the bottom had a little more crisp and the undercarriage held up better. Overall, a really solid pizza spot that I'd come back to try again.

Honestly, every slice we tried was solid, and I'd definitely go back again soon.

They also have traditional pizzas, so flavors like pepperoni and cheese. The space is small and parking on Jefferson is always kind of hit or miss, so I definitely recommend getting your order to go. Still a fun space and I'm so happy they left the outside mural along. The garlic knots are amazing with extra butter and loaded with parmesan and garlic. I can only imagine how good the cheese bread is!

Started with an old-fashioned and an unsweet tea. Drink was good overall. We shared a Caesar salad to start. Half of the lettuce pieces were brown. Lettuce was yellowed more than green. Meh. I ordered the rigatoni with spicy marinara, meatball and sausage. The portion was insanely large - two sausages and two meatball, plus a platter of pasta. This was good - but again too much. Meatballs were good, sausage was good. For dessert I ordered the chocolate mousse which was okay. Located in an old bank building the place was nice with live music - though the guy walking around playing the sax was a little much.

He mix ed the sausage himself. The fish and chips was crispy and a huge portion. Nice country fries with it. We also had the chicken wings, which were amazing. Crispy and very flavorful. We had country boy cliff Jumper beer in the Can and received a cold glass. It was fantastic. The music list, made by the owner, is so fun. A real mix of country, rock and 80s hits. Can't quite describe it, but it is amazing. We will definitely be back next time we are in Lexington. Besides, it is s in the middle of downtown, frequented by a lot of locals, that's always a good sign. I have to add that Chef Russ is a gem and this restaurant is lucky to have him. He makes bread pudding that is soaked for six hours before he serves it and it is delicious. If he offers it, don't miss it.
