Im gonna go ahead and say it: this was the best bagel sandwich ive ever had. $12 is a lot for a veggie but it was worth it! Hoping to come back to Lexington so I can do it again.

Excellent food, fantastic vegan options. They were able to accommodate a reservation with a large group of us. They offer to-go boxes if you want to take things home. I was told that the vegan sausage and cheeses are both soy based, so if you have an allergy be aware of that.

Fantastic pizza and vegan salad with nooch! The only drawback was that both the vegan sausage and the vegan cheese were soy based. As someone who tries to eat vegan as much as possible but is allergic to soy, sometimes I have to go for the cheese option.
That said, incredibly vegan and vegetarian friendly and delicious.

took my wife out for birthday dinner and had such a lovely night with the folks working at Pearl’s this evening! our server (who was wearing a necklace that said ‘Isabelle’ — we still should have asked for their name!) was so fun and took such great care of us. the food was top notch, i’m a huge fan of the vegan Caesar and the seasonal kale salad was incredible too! pizzas were phenomenal and so tasty. what a lovely way to celebrate a special occasion!

While the breakfast food was pretty good, to piggy-back onto almost every other review below, the 20% gratuity added to every order for counter service is a reason we won’t come back. While other local businesses (such as Stella’s) do this, they are providing table service. Here, you order at the counter, sit down and are not getting any service. The menu prices should all be raised by 20% instead of calling this a gratuity because there is no service for the gratuity to be applicable to.

Came here for oysters, loved it. The only downside was the 20% gratuity added to the bill.

I went here with two friends of mine for brunch. I order my food, and the woman at the counter said the gratuity was included with the price of my food, despite it being a “fast-casual” restaurant. This restaurant adds your tip onto your meal automatically for no reason, but they disguise it by calling it a “gratuity.” Never have I seen any restaurant do this before; you’re always given a choice of if you want to leave a tip based on the service you’re provided or if you want to be generous to those busting their tails on the job. They do nothing to earn a tip because you order at a counter with no waiting services, so they’re essentially just choosing to take a few of your dollars for no reason when you order. Portion sizes are abysmally small, it took nearly half an hour for our food to hit the table despite being a fast-casual restaurant, and the brunch food was average at best. I would not recommend this place to anyone that I know living in the Lexington area. Go to Drake’s instead.

Came on a Saturday after the Lexington Farmers Market. Had their Salmon bagel and since it was my first time I asked the Staff for recommendations. Had the “extreme” topping with Everything Bagel. It was delicious! All the filling came out when I bit into it…haha!…but that’s a bagel sandwich for ya! Really cute local place to spend a quiet Saturday morning. Outdoor seating and cute indoor seating. If you’re downtown Lexington, Pearl’s is a great place to try. I was only visiting for the weekend but if I was local…I’d be a Regular! Well done Pearls!

The pizza is okay; it all depends on the style. It’s a bit soft and floppy but chewy. Overall, I would say it’s good. The service was hit or miss. They seemed busy for the amount of staff. Overall, there were no major issues. One big miss: they add an automatic 20% tip to the check. I always tip generously, but I base my tip on the quality of service. Adding an automatic gratuity is wrong—it’s essentially charging a 20% premium on the food. Gratuity should not be mandatory. Any place that does this should be avoided. Provide good service, and you will receive good tips. If you need to charge more for the food, then adjust the prices accordingly.
Good food great locale wonderful service! We sat outside during Latinofest!

This was my first time in celebrating my son‘s birthday. Unfortunately our service name is not on the guest check. But I shall describe her. Brown hair 55 Ish late 20s early 30s. She’s a great asset. She’s bubbling checking back on food. We sat at the table on the left second table passed maître d’ station. The only surprise I had was when I saw 20% on the check. I usually tip at least 20% in this case with A. Server doing a great job. I feel people that would leave more than 20% like myself didn’t do so. Michael
