I have only had takeout food from Windy Corner; I have not visited the location myself. What I did have, a bbq pork po-boy, was phenomenal! Can't wait to try more from their menu!

I had the Cobb Salad. The greens were fresh and of good quality, the chicken was fried well, the remaining veggies were fresh and the blue pimento cheese was delicious. I had blue cheese dressing instead of the suggested dressing. I definitely will order it again.

Great little ambiance in this little market just outside of Lexington. Had a good menu to choose from with locally sourced meat. We ordered the chicken salad sandwich (not pictured) and the crispy fried chicken sandwich. The special sauce is basically tartar sauce. I would recommend getting that sauce on the side. Wish the chicken had more toppings and condiments. Fried chicken was cooked well. Definitely recommend trying this place out. Will be going back.
The food is so good! And the manager is excellent, super friendly. I also love that they have some gluten free options and they actually taste good. I will definitely be back.

A must see in Lexington!! Charming place for lunch or dinner or just a beer and appetizers. Artichoke fritters and fried pickles are especially tasty!
A beautiful drive out Bryan Station Road leads you to a scenic restaurant called Windy Corner. Located at the corner of Hume Rd and Bryan Station Rd. Surrounded by beautiful horse farms, you can watch the horses play as you eat!Today, we stopped by and had their banana pepper rings as an appetizer. Good coating and comes with ranch dressing and cocktail sauce for dipping. Very flavorful and I enjoyed them very much! Personally, they would have been better with marinara sauce (I didn't ask if they had it), but still very good.My wife and I ordered the catfish and also the chicken fingers and split them so we could have a fish and chicken dinner. Each was served with crispy and hot french fries.The chicken tenders were nothing special. Just your basic chicken tenders, fries and slaw. I believe that they were hand breaded in Wisenberger Mills coating. Small pieces, basically oversized nuggets of chicken breast. For a dipping sauce, I had honey mustard. Personally. They were a little over cooked, but it was your basic chicken tender meal. Nothing special.Coleslaw was bland and warm. Could use some black pepper, dill or other flavorings besides just mayonnaise. Needless to say, neither of us finished it.The catfish included 2 large servings of catfish fillets, 2 hush puppies, fries and slaw. It came with a remoulade Cajun style tartar sauce. Again, the catfish was coated in a Weisenberger Mills coating. Catfish was very bland and overcooked. Hush puppies were so overcooked, they were almost black when served (see attached photos) I think they had some jalapeño pepper or something inside them, but after one bite of mushy disappointment, I decided to pass on them. Just not good.The catfish may have been more flavorful if it had a lemon with it and wasn't so overcooked, but that's just a guess.Other observations:The waitress had no problem walking around to all the other tables,but never checked on us to ask how the food was or to be able to ask them for a lemon or anything.Ketchup bottle on our table was empty and we had to get one from another table. You would think they could feel an empty ketchup bottle when they wipe the tables, but I guess that's expecting too much.This should NOT be considered anything family friendly. The waitresses were talking about making Christmas candies and used quite a few cuss words in their description. Then someone from the kitchen chimed in during their conversation about F-this and F-that. Not a place I would want to take my grandkids or out of state guests! Conversations bounce off all the walls and can be heard anywhere in the restaurant.I hate leaving a bad review, but we have tried this place before and thought maybe we caught it on a bad day back them, but sadly, this place is just a mediocre, non family-friendly place that the drive is definitely not worth the difference.Pass this one by. Not worth the trip!

I went here with my husband, parents, and mother in law for brunch. The food was excellent. My only complaint was once we ordered there was not a table available to sit at. The lady that worked there started walking around checking on tables to kinda push the tables that were done eating to move along since they were sitting talking. Her little technique worked and we were able to get a table by the time our food was ready to come out. Very busy for brunch on the weekends.
