39 Best American Restaurants in Lexington

“Bone Appetite is an outstanding addition to the Lexington, SC culinary experience. The restaurant changes the menu on a weekly basis so the experience is always fresh. I look for two things in a steakhouse/seafood restaurant. Can they cook the steak and seafood properly. Does the service match the rest of the culinary experience. Bone Appetite does both. I ordered a medium rare New York Strip with Shrimp. The cook on the steak and the seafood was perfect. My wife had Grilled Salmon and loved it. The sides were Sweet Potato fries and a rice pilaf with a spicy sausage and crawdad addition. The rice was a refreshing interpretation of Cajun cuisine and went well with the steak. Our server (Ashley) was attentive, cordial and professional. The atmosphere is an upscale casual with 70's music playing in the background. I talked at length with both Ashley and the owner (Justin) and was impressed with their knowledge and experience. Justin makes it a habit to come out on the dining floor and talk with his patrons. I left there having made a new friend. I will definitely be returning. I highly recommend Bone Appetite to anyone looking for a good steak and or seafood.“

“Pimento Cheeseburger tasted delicious as always. French fries cooked to perfection.“

“This has been an amazing treat for us when we come to Lexington once a month now! Food is out of this world great and the owner is fantastic!“

“Always liked going to Flight deck. This time ordered cordon Bleu and was disappointed. It was four cut up pieces and looked like it was deep fried and for to long..did not enjoy it at all have gotten it there before and enjoyed it. Got a piece of raspberry lemon cheesecake..more cake than cheese will try different choices next time“

“I like the sandwiches have fresh bread and are warm. The Cuban sandwich is good, I suggest to request the Dijon mustard for that cuban sub -if you like horseradish, but if there is the possibility to get a Virginia mustard will be perfect.I don't have pictures, I was hungry...“

“I eat their weekly. Grew up eating Lizards Thicket. Started out at the one that used to be by the airport. I’ve eaten at all of them. They are all good. Love the breakfast. Love the specials. Love the staff. Would recommend anybody that has had a bad Experience. Don’t let that one time experience stop you from enjoying a lot more of good experiences there. Highly recommend them.!!!!👍“

“They have the best burgers ever because they’ve fresh and not greasy. The burgers are also a favorable size. Their fries are by far the best and have vinegar!!! They also have sweet and low for condiments! I always go out of there very happy!!!“

“My sister and I stopped in for lunch. We had a short wait to get a table, but there were a few places to sit while you wait. Our waitress was really nice. She gave excellent service. Our food was prepared nicely and was very good. We both enjoyed a Mimosa. Although I think there could gave been a little more alcohol in it, it still tasted good. We will definitely go again and try some of the other delicious looking items on their menu.“

“Food and service was awesome. As a fellow person of the service industry i would also like to comment that people don't understand how hard it is to please a customer and our waitress Ali went above and beyond to make sure we were takin care of. Very pleased and satisfied would come back anytime.“

“Southern down home cooking with a good helping of hospitality on the side.

I live in Chicago but I am from SC. Every time that I am in town I HAVE TO visit Lizards Thicket. It's the best fast southern food out there. My entire family is a fan. We love it.

“Took my Hubby here for his Birthday , because he wanted Spicy Mango Haberno for his Friday Supper BD. We already had Prime Rib and did the Burger thing earlier in the week. He said these were better than Ale House which was his fave, and hotter. He also did Garlic Parmesean. I got the Carolina Dip,and Onion Rings. Can I say Buffalo Portions at Hummingbird Prices, we were shocked at how inexpensive it was. I loved the Sports Bar Atmosphere. We will definitely be bk. Thanks for Being a Awesome Eating Establishment with" Big Behind" Portions, because we had leftovers.“

“Had the best dinner ribs dry rub were absolutely delicious. 8 oz Sirlion done correctly and tender. Server was this young lady Jade C. She was spot on. Prompt friendly, knowledgeable of the menu . My friend and I were two needy customers wanting extra sides and to go orders. Lots of extras for just two people. She went out of her way to accommodate everything we needed and asked for. Thanks to her for making our dinner fun and enjoyable. Girls weekend getaway 11/15/24“

“First time ordering and their chicken salad is so fresh and delicious! Got it on toasted rye with lettuce and tomato and added provolone. 👌 it did not come with a pickle which would have been nice. I also tried the potato salad, it was good but just not my favorite.
Will definitely be ordering again!“

“My husband and I made a stop at Keg Cowboy on Saturday. It was our first time there. Sat at the bar, Charlie with a big smile introduced himself. My husband had a tasty cider beer. We shared the beef panini, which was was incredible. Keg was exactly the type of place we have been looking for. Thanks Kelsey for the recommendation ?“

“service was great, atmosphere was cheerful and friendly. it's Christmas day. food was very good“

“Great breakfast but bring back the country ham.“

“I’ve been here on several occasions with friends and family and it’s among my top places to eat. It looks like they’ve redesigned since my last visit and it looks great. In particular, I want to thank the staff for their efforts hosting our office Christmas party. Our original location shut down due to water damage a few weeks before our event but the restaurant was able to accommodate our 30 person party, including many little ones, with no issues at all. They even provided us with a beautiful private space allowing us more freedom to move and interact with each other. Excellent work from booking to execution. A big thanks to our main server who put up with us too! Consider Old Mill for your off campus office gathering or other event!

Vegetarian options: The menu had a few options for vegetarians including salads and spinach dip for an appetizer.

Parking: Limited parking in the front with dozens of other spaces in the back.“

“I'm starting at this waffle house the staff is great, I've always had great food here. Training managers are awesome. I highly recommend coming to check out this store“

“Kayla D was a great waitress. She has a genuine people pleasing attitude. We go there weekly and we always ask to be seated at a table she is serving. I recommend this resturant to anyone interested in good food and service.

“Just tried Blaneys Wings for the 1st time (through door dash) and was very happy with them. Nice sized pieces of fresh boneless chicken. I got the medium flavor and it was very good except they barely put any sauce on them & the side of ranch dipping sauce was extremely small for the amount of chicken. I did really like their fries a lot too. The chicken was delicious though and the amount of food was great for the price. We will definitely try again.“

“fantastic all around very much recommended“

“Decent food, good service and a nice locals place. In my opinion, the recent remodel sadly turned it from having the feeling of a cool corner bar with a slightly rough-arpund-the-edges appearance, but still a super welcoming place, into a church bingo hall.“

“We stopped in last minute to grab a bite to eat. We were pleasantly surprised, great service, the food was amazing and we will definitely go back. We recommend TR’s Bar and Grill highly. 5 stars!“

“Great service and food. Friendly staff.“

“Everything is great !! Kid friendly, great customer service, and great drinks !“

“Good food. They had my to go order ready when I arrived. The country fried steak, collards, & Mac and cheese are great. Customer service could use improvement, aside from that it’s great. I’ll be back“

“This is my second time. Had the Birria quesadilla and tacos. They are amazing. The first time I had a burrito. It was so good!“

“We had the pleasure of stopping at The Root Cellar in Batesburg for lunch today, and wow—what an incredible experience! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, setting the stage for what turned out to be an outstanding meal. My wife ordered the grilled pork chops with three vegetables, while I went with a classic hamburger and fries. Every bite was packed with flavor, and the food arrived hot and fresh with barely any wait time. The attention to detail in both the preparation and presentation was evident. Our server, Janice, was an absolute delight—greeted us with a smile and was full of great recommendations to help us choose the perfect meal. Her friendly, attentive service made the experience even better. If you’re anywhere near Batesburg, The Root Cellar is a must-visit. Outstanding food, top-notch service, and a welcoming atmosphere—highly recommended!“

“Great experience, as always. This time was even better.
From the moment we were greeted att he door to the moment we sat down. Hostess smiled at every customer like they were friends. Bar tender makes amazing mimosas and the bloody Mary's are out of this world. Maddie, our waitress was the best we've had in a long time anywhere. She's a keeper. Hidden treasure of Lexington. It's worth the wait and the food it awesome. Love our Sunday bunches with these amazing folks. 👏“

“Not only is this a great go to place for comfort food, but the greeting is outstanding. The warm welcome was on point, nice and in sync so much that it felt like the entire restaurant was greeting us. Lol. You definitely can’t help but smile. The food was good and, if I remember correctly, Margaret was our server. She was amazing and very attentive. Well done, everyone!“

“My favorite seafood place in North Myrtle Beach! Great food, friendly folks!“

“Excellent as always wherever you go! Restaurant was super clean and staff truly wonderful! Susie did a great job even though it was being slammed with walk ins and food came in minutes and my grandkids wiped out all! 5 stars!“

“Taylor was an excellent waitress tonight, friendly, courteous. Food was hot when brought out. We really enjoy the restaurant.“

“The food was great, but service was a little slow. When you’re serving more than 1 person in a party, the food should come at the same time (unless it’s a HUGE party, of course). Nonetheless, It was just two of us and our meals were served 15 minutes apart. We were celebrating my husband’s birthday and I was a little disappointed.“
