The food was not good at all and the bartender had a terrible attitude. We ordered the cauliflower, crab cakes and lemon pepper wings. It was all terrible, the lemon pepper wings had some type sweet sauce on them and no lemon pepper at all. The cauliflower had the same sweet sauce on them and the crab cakes were bland. The bartender had a attitude the whole time, I tried to make conversation and jokes but she was rude the whole time. Will not be returning.

Menu is severely limited and the Food is mediocre and they do not bring it out on time. We ordered one thing but it turns out they were out of tortillas so she said we have to order something else. Appetizer came when the food came out and the waiter got our order wrong? Like it’s all around just terrible would not recommend took 50 mins just to bring some sauce and they charge an automatic 20% service charge. Way too overpriced for the atmosphere, food, and environment . Only good thing is the Dj i got his name for my events “2phrozen”. But anyway Chilis is better than this , even Applebees. PLEASE save yourself the hassle and go someone else to eat

I was really looking forward to having a great time dining at Lepley’s, trying the deviled eggs with blackened shrimp as well as the fried catfish and grits, however my experience was quite the opposite all due to the extremely loud music. My brunch reservation was for 1pm on a Saturday. A majority of my party (3 of 4) arrived on time but we couldn’t be seated until all parties were present - which I completely respect as it’s their policy and clearly stated on the website. While we waited at the bar for the rest of my party (just 1 guest), we noticed a live DJ who was playing some great tunes but man was it LOUD. I felt like I was at a night club standing right next to the speakers. The restaurant is small and there was a private party who reserved the outdoor space, so we couldn’t move to a quieter spot. My girlfriends and I couldn’t even hear one another speak. It became so distracting was just way too much for an early afternoon gathering. We were at the bar about 15 minutes before my last guest arrived but we couldn’t take it anymore so we left before being given a table and went to another restaurant. If it weren’t for the volume of the music, we certainly would’ve stayed. The staff did seem nice and the establishment was clean - definitely more of a younger vibe. I would like to return for brunch to get the full Lepley’s experience considering the good Google reviews but will call first to confirm days when there isn’t a live DJ present during the early afternoon hours.

I made a reservation at 8:30pm and I was highly disappointed with the service. I sat there for 15 minutes and had to ask the hostess about my server because she never came. When she finally came to my table, she only took my drink order and proceeded to let my drinks sit at the bar while she walked around the restaurant. Needless to say, I walked out at 9:00pm after only having a glass of water that was brought to me by the hostess.

If you're considering the Lepley's burger, don't. It's absolutely not worth that price.

I wish I could give Lepley's a better review, but our experience was incredibly disappointing. We made a reservation three days in advance for our anniversary, only to be called just two hours before our reservation and told it was canceled. No real explanation was offered, and it completely threw off our plans for a special evening.
Cancelling on such short notice for an important occasion feels unprofessional and inconsiderate. If you're looking for a reliable place for a special event, unfortunately, Lepley's might not be the best choice.

The food was ok but it need seasoning. I had mashed potatoes and lamp chop. The mashed was blend no seasoning or butter. But overall it's a cool spot.

We went there last night the vibe was good but the food was cold didn’t want to cause a fuss but for 160.00 shame on me. Never again!

What an amazing experience. My girlfriends and I went to Lepley's for brunch before a concert. We had reservations at 11a and were immediately seated. The vibe was so nice, DJ playing music, TV's were playing sports and our waitress was very attentive and catered to our needs. I had catfish and grits and my friends had chicken and waffles with eggs/grits. Everything was so well seasoned and cooked well. I had a drink and whewww it was nice, strong and good! We topped it off with the sweet potato brownie. I expected a brownie and sweet potato combo, but it was just sweet potato's shaped into a brownie with ice cream: it was still very good! Check out Lepley's for brunch, you won't be disappointed!

The catfish and grits tasted like a home cook meal I have been missing. I can cook but I cannot COOK it like “dat” I truly miss my granny she was the most critic over soul food she acted like nobody can cook as good as her ? ?️RIP Mattie Johnson-Lampkin I dedicate my look to her because I could only imagine what she would have said “not you trying to FINALLY high step the skirt still too SHORT ”? ?

I recently attended my best friend's graduation dinner at Lepley's, and I can't say enough about the fantastic experience we had. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome, and the atmosphere was warm and celebratory, which made the evening feel even more special.
The service was impeccable—attentive without being overbearing. Even though there was a limited menu due to the recent storm, the food was absolutely delicious. It’s clear that the kitchen takes great pride in both the quality of ingredients and the creativity of the dishes.
The restaurant also did a wonderful job accommodating our group, making sure everything ran smoothly for such a large party. Our server ensure that drinks were always full and that there were no issues with our meals.
Not only was our server attentive and accommodating, but the manager also came by personally to check on us and make sure everything was to our satisfaction. That extra touch of attention made us feel truly valued as guests, and it elevated the whole experience.
Thank you, for making such an important celebration even more memorable. We will definitely be back for future special occasions!
