This place has a really nice open patio area upstairs which is a great place to meet people for drinks after work. However, i’ve sampled at least 50% of the menu and the food is consistently mediocre. At best, uninspired, and at worst, not even fresh (don’t get the mussels!). Service is hit and miss; some servers are friendly and others seem really unhappy to be there. Service is particularly slow on weekdays. I’ll keep coming just for the patio and drinks.

Drinks were excellent, food was fine (we just got some apps), and the service was fantastic. Super knowledgeable about the wine list, very attentive, and no pressure to leave (we sat and talked forever!). Great roof deck that allowed us to enjoy the weather. It was a lovely evening.

Great space but was very loud. Was there later in the evening so there were plenty of open tables but we were placed next to large, loud group. Cocktails were good, server was very friendly but disappeared a bit mid meal, I had Caesar salad and chicken and chicken was very dry. Others had sandwiches and they said they were good. Very nice views/openness on 2nd floor.

Always a great meal and super convenient to eat at before a Celtics game! Ming is the best.

I've been here a few times and all have been positive experiences. My most recent visit was a slow night probably due to the rain, but that made for a quieter, intimate environment which I appreciated. The service was 10/10 and orders came quite promptly. Appetizers: mussels were very well received and croquettes that had a crispy exterior that revealed a pillowy inner. Entrees included shrimp tacos which were fantastic, steak frites which was rated highly, a salmon that was cooked to perfection. We ended with a raspberry topped cake and flan. I personally felt that the flan was a bit too thick and gelatinous but my friends enjoyed it. Overall will be a regular as I live so close by!

Came here with my family for Easter brunch in 2024 and 2025 and loved it both times. The food, service and atmosphere were all great. Also they were able to accommodate gluten free requests without any issues.

Very good restaurant for Easter brunch. Good value. Food was delicious and well presented. Very pretty place. Arlea was a great waitperson. Thank you.
Great service! The team was so kind to us and the birthday girl. I will definitely return here again.

The food and service were amazing and Tom makes the best drinks! Great wine selection too. Very cognizant of gluten free options with a complete menu. And some space where you don't feel you are on top of people. Just a quick walk from charlestown to get hungry and walk it off. This is a true gem.

Overall, I really enjoyed the experience we had at The Lexington. The drinks were excellent, the ambiance is fantastic...makes me want to spend more time at the restaurant. I wished there were more entree options, but overall, the sharable and bites were good. The attention to details and service was excellent. I appreciated the team cutting the burger, splitting fries, and portioning our salad for two. I would come back with more friends or as a stop for drinks before going out or heading to another event.

This is such a nice cozy place. The bartenders were incredibly knowledgeable and friendly and the wait staff was friendly as well. The food was excellent.
