Catfish amazing, imperial flounder delicious. We will return as the simplistic menu has other offerings we went to try. Portions are worth the cost and the bread pudding warm with ice cream.

It started great with the host (Liam) who was very nice. And our food was fantastic!! We would definitely return to Palmers!

Great brunch with some simple selections and a few specialty items. The potatoes are amazing, as were the beignets! Definitely a great spot for our small book club to enjoy our food and good conversation.

Order the porterhouse for two, it was cooked correctly and tasted very good. The waitress was excellent. Will be back.

My first time at Palmers and I was completely impressed! I ordered the pork chop and I can say it was the BEST chop I've ever had! Cooked to perfection and so tender! Wait staff was very nice and not overbearing! Next time in Lexington, I'll be going again!

Palmers is consistently 5 star, have been eating there many years. Lindsey was our server, she was friendly, detail oriented, anticipated our needs. Our favorite shareable, calamari with yummy peanut sauce, we always get extra on the side, the Fried Green Tomatoes were beautiful and festive. I ordered the scallops and sirloin which were presented and prepared perfectly. Friends enjoyed the Yule Mule holiday drink and I had a perfectly prepared slightly dirty, dry, chilled martini with blue cheese stuffed olives...Lindsey didn't even roll her eyes when I ordered it in embarrassingly specific detail. I am hard to please, rarely award a 5 but when I do, I take the time to send out specific positive feedback as to why.

The drinks we ordered were very tasty. You can tell the bartender took their time preparing the drinks. The food was hot, fresh, and tasted great. It was a superb birthday experience.

Oysters were very bland, the scallops were small, overcooked, and tasted like burnt butter, and the sauteed spinach and fish tacos were extremely salty.

On the other hand, the service was fast, sangria was nice, and the crab cakes were tasty. Tbh, I never walk away from Palmers happy, especially given the price. This was a final attempt and I'll probably never go back. Also, they don't really seem to change their menu much. It's been years since I've been here and I recognized most of the same options as last time. Unfortunately, there's not a great place for seafood in Lexington.

The food was delicious! Our waitress was very kind, attentive and knowledgeable and the manager who came to our table to ask about our experience was great.

I normally don't eat fish unless I am in a location that it is near, fresh. I will stick with that practice.

Food was delicious and the atmosphere is incredible. Beautiful pond and fountain, swans, ducks. It was a nice experience

The food and service were outstanding. The noise level was very high but everyone had been to Keeneland and they were just having fun. However, if you want a quiet evening with your guest, another location, during Keeneland, may be a better choice. We had a good time; and again, the service and food were outstanding and at prices that were reasonable. We each had a different entree and all were prepared well. We were very pleased.
