20 Best Barbeque Restaurants in Lexington

“Traveling to Lexington and had the most amazing BBQ. Hands down food orgasm!🤤“

“Excellent Food, Service and Staff!!!“

“I had a 1/2 rack, coleslaw and fries. The ribs were done to perfection, meaty and fell of the bone. The coleslaw was excellent and full of flavor. The fries were thin, fresh cut with skins you could taste separately from the potato. Highly recommend Charlie G's and I'll be back.“

“Visiting from out of town and was looking for someplace that served up some Burgoo. I first tried burgoo at Churchill Downs and really enjoyed the taste. I saw an article online listing Double H BBQ as one of the top burgoo locations in Lexington and decided to give it a try. Glad I did. Their burgoo was broth based and what I was looking for. Also tried the white chicken chili, green beans and a small brisket sandwich. Everything I tried was good and made my belly happy.“

“Best brisket I’ve ever had! Corn pudding good too.“

“somewhat of a hidden gem!“

“I submitted a mobile order to the Harrodsburg location and they ended up being out of a few things I wanted. They gave me some extra Turkey, Brisket,, a side of corn pudding, and an extra piece of cornbread. Oddly enough, some of the extras that I didn’t originally order were some of my other favorite items.“

“Best BBQ in Kentucky! Staff are respectful and deliver a great experience. Had their catering twice and have eaten at restaurant multiple times, either way you won’t be let down and will be left full and happy. Also the sauces are the best in area.“

“This spot is great for a casual bite to eat. They have very good food and I will definitely be back. I took away one star because of the appearance. In fact the first night when we pulled in we actually ended up leaving because it just looks so run down and there is a dilapidated hotel or something in the back. But after reading more reviews we decided to give it a try the next night and were sorry we didn't come in the night before. The food and service are excellent! Don't be scared off by the appearance.“

“Was recently in a pinch needing to grab some dinner for the family and was tired of the usual spots. Dickeys was affordable, the food was great and the service was above and beyond. The staff, who I believe are also owners were so kind and thoughtful and even gave me a free fountain drink while I waited for my large order to be ready despite it only taking them a few minutes to get everything together.

I will absolutely be back and I'm so grateful to have them as an option in the neighborhood.“

“I think the food is Great.“

“Today my bestie and I tried Korean BBQ for the first time and it was AMAZING!!! First off the staff (I didn’t get the young ladies name) was BEYOND amazing she helped us choose our food and showed us all that we needed to do with cooking our own food. She was super sweet. The food was freaking amazing! We had the meat and seafood. Our first time trying squid and it was pretty good. We felt warm and welcomed here and it was truly an authentic experience. We definitely plan on returning to try more things.“

“Came in with my fiance for her first time. Wait staff was fantastic! Great atmosphere and even better food. 10/10“

“Great atmosphere, the staff is spot on. Mother fries are the bomb! Oysters and shrimp cocktail was very good! My wife and I both had the “ prime rib” recently. I’m not a butcher but what we had was not “prime rib”. It was I believe a $28 “chuck roast”.“

“visited your place on my way north. friendly people and a great atmosphere. live music at 7 was a treat.“

“Ms Elizabeth J. Is wonderful. A guest of ours came in to praise us. Let us know how good the vibes are in our restaurant. Ms Elizabeth really liked the atmosphere food and our professionalism.. Ms Elizabeth, thank you so much! Look forward to seeing you again! Sonny’s mgr and team“

“My husband and I came in tonight for an early Mothers Day celebration. they were PACKED but still provide amazing service! We got seated quickly, our server was amazing, our drinks and apps came out within a few minutes, my margarita was delicious and not skimping liquor, and our food was amazing! The manager came by and we praised our experience. 10/10 would recommend.“

“My trips here before was nice. Once on a date, we just had drinks and shared dessert. Tonight, I got pork chops with BBQ on the side with sweet potato, brussel sprouts and grill fire corn. It was one of the best meals I have had from a restaurant!!!“

“Big shout out to all of the employees! They helped me out when my husband was having diabetic issues. They got me a quick coke, ice cream and then a fast burger. You are the best!“

“It was awesome. Our steaks were cooked perfectly. The waitress was amazing! All the food was great!“
