“Place has a little mix of Spaniard and Latin American food. Went here on Saturday night and service was great. Our server Alberto was very kind and attentive. We got the sangria and it was one of the best sangrias I’ve had and a big portion. We got the fried calamari. Very good but very small portion. Not something I would recommend sharing. Also got the tostones with guacamole, though an interesting pairing, it was still good. Ended up sharing a Cuban sandwich, the pork was super delicious, very juicy, everything was perfect with this, and it came with chips. Price is reasonable and appetizers were mostly under $10. Would come here again and will be recommending to friends.“

“This food was sooooo good. It's peaceful and clean inside. There was a team of 3 that worked well and quickly together. I got 2 water bottles, 2 macaroons (bomb), a white hot chocolate and 2 build your own crepes. In total without tip it was $46. I ate here yesterday, but I'm seriously considering going back today to eat more.“

“I ordered the 12” Margherita with an additional topping of sausage and a side of pizza sauce. The crust on this pizza was perfectly cooked. The fresh mozzarella and basil were great tasting and delicious, as was the authentic Italian sausage. As you can see in the photo, the pizza was slightly greasy, but not so much that it was a problem. You can taste the difference when freshly sourced tomatoes are used in the sauce, but it could’ve been thicker in consistency and use a bit more zest. You can tell the owner has put love into the food and the restaurant. It was meticulously clean and a fun environment. The staff was friendly and attentive. The pricing is absolutely fair.Parking: Better parking than other downtown pizza joints.“

“My wife and I indulged in a delightful meal, starting with the most ordered and recommended choice of the hot jam chicken which had biscuits as buns, accompanied by perfectly dressed champagne vinegarette greens that when pair with the spice of the chicken was excellent. My pancake order was equally impressive - the generous portion size was matched only by the unmatched flavor, especially with the hint of orange zest, interesting combination but uniquely paired. And let's not forget about the hash browns, which were a crunchy delight topped with grated parmesan cheese. The ambiance of the cafe was charming, adding to the overall experience. Very clean from the floor to the tables, entry way etc. We can't wait to return and explore more of the menu options. Highly recommend this hidden gem of a cafe!“

“Nestled in the heart of Lexington, KY, The Obstinate Sons is a culinary haven that promises an unforgettable dining experience. From the moment you step through the door, you’re enveloped in an atmosphere of warmth and hospitality, setting the stage for an exceptional meal ahead.“

“Excellent service and food. The owner was very helpful in explaining all the dishes to us and recommending dishes she thought we would like. We tried several new dishes we have never had before and it was a really great experience. We tried a couple different curries and biryanis. They were both so delicious. Our first time here and definitely not our last!“
