40 Best American Restaurants in Lexington

“Never had a bad meal here! Awesome food!“

“Food was exceptionally good. My husband and I enjoyed our wine and the meal. Our server was very gracious and attentive. Our problem came when the bill arrived and a 18% gratuity was automatically charged. We pay tips in cash to our servers so they get them right away instead of being held for a week or two as so many places do. I requested to speak with MOD but she never came. We waited 15 minutes and upon leaving saw her out back smoking. Customers always came first for every restaurant, bar or business I worked for and with the quality of service the owner set up, that was what I expected. Very disappointing experience. BTW we tip 25-30% normally not 18, so don't put it on a check for 2 people. We had hoped to get the message to the owner for his consideration in this matter. Hopefully he reads reviews and this changes or my husband won't return.“

“You may want to consider moving the sign for your drive-thru hours to the entrance of the drive-thru instead of by the window. I sat in the drive-thru for several minutes before pulling through and seeing the sign AFTER where you place your order.“

“Enjoyed the food. Carl was excellent with service.“

“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“

“My wife and I order dinner once or twice each week. The meals are complete and exceptional. Home cooking without the hassle. It is a blessing to have Alisha and her entire team provide such womderful dinners.“

“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...“

“Flounder and that’s enough 😂“

“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 ?“

“The food and service was AMAZING!!“

“Kurt always has good food. It's good country cooking so if you're wanting something fancy, it's not for you but this Lexington gal and husband frequent a couple of times a month and it is ALWAYS consistent and ALMOST as good as mine!!!“

“Everytime we eat here it is always amazing. Everyone that works here is nice and so sweet. Their food is AMAZING and always fresh. Tonight we did takeout and it was just as good. The best part is this is the only place I have ever ordered online and NOTHING was wrong. Thank y'all for always being AWESOME.“

“Great breakfast but bring back the country ham.“

“We had a wonderful family dinner at Old Mill Brewpub while visiting from Florida. Sitting out on the porch offered a scenic, peaceful view of the water that set the tone for a relaxing night out.
To start, we ordered the bacon collard dip served with fresh pig skins and tortilla chips. While my daughter and I were not crazy about it, my husband completely devoured the entire bowl.
The main dishes hit the mark across the table. My husband ordered the Cuban sandwich with fries and really enjoyed it. Our daughter got the chicken fingers with fries, which were crispy and delicious. I had the wings tossed in mango habanero sauce, which had the perfect balance of sweet heat, paired with tasty onion rings.
We washed everything down with cold beers from the tap, enjoying both an IPA and a blonde ale. It was a great stop with good food, cool ambiance, and lovely views that made for a memorable family evening while traveling. We definitely recommend stopping by if you are in the area.“

“went to this place tuesday afternoon after finding out about it on a site called only in your state. the place was busy but only had a short wait for a table & this was around lunch time. the entire staff was absolutely amazing as was the food that we ordered. waitress checked back in with us several times as well as the manager. its overall a fantastic place i will be going back as well as recommending it to everyone i know.“

“Love their pimento cheeseburger!!“

“Highly recommended for good food and a large menu!“

“This review is specifically for the newer Redbank location. We had a late night concert Monday night at the White Knoll High School PAC center and decided afterwards to go to this location. We weren't aware that they closed at 9pm until after we were leaving. Most of our party arrived at 8:15pm but we had some stragglers that arrived at 8:40pm. The entire staff was soooooooo incredible and accommodating, everyone helping each other get drinks, refills, bread and food out soooooooo quickly. Not one time did we ever feel "rushed" or "hovered" over to "hurry up." Instead they just let us enjoy our dining experience! The food was fantastic, even at the end of the shift, it was still all so fresh and delicious! I think we wrapped up our bills at 9:30pm. We all thanked the servers and all the management staff for allowing us to stay and enjoy our meal and we humbly apologized to them honestly not knowing the time they closed. The manager reassured us it was no problem at all and asked us if we enjoyed everything, food, service and all. We enthusiastically replied YES! I just wanted to specifically shout out to the store and staff how wonderful our dining experience was. I'm sorry for posting a few days afterwards, but please know your team was phenomenal and it didn't go unnoticed. Ty so very much again!“

“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“

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

“Great service and food. Friendly staff.“

“My husband and I had a date night on a Saturday night at 7. The wait was only about 20 minutes to get seated. Our server was absolutely AMAZING! Kallie was energetic, open about wait times on food, attentive, and a pleasant person overall! The food was delicious and we will definitely be going 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“

“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!“

“I visited your establishment for the first time today. I had the Twisted Root Salad with the grilled chicken. It was really good! Our waitress was Reagan. She was very attentive, sweet and I enjoyed talking with her. We will be back.“

“Excellent customer service. Robin always goes out of her way to accommodate the regulars. People don't realize what a stressful business this can be before leaving unnecessary reviews. We come here often and they really do the best they can with what they have to work with.“

“DELICIOUS food and very reasonable prices. We were invited here by friends 2 months ago and had never eaten here before. Since then, we’ve been back 3-4 times. The food is 10/10, great prices, clean restaurant and bathrooms, and very friendly employees. It’s very child friendly and has become one of our favorite spots!“

“We come to Wayback often. It’s my 6 year olds favorite restaurant.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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!“

“Great local place with friendly people, great food and drinks!!!“

“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.“

“Mother's Day. Average wait, about 15 minutes. Entrees arrived before appetizers though. Our hostess, Emily, was very attentive and we never had to wait for attention. Food was delicious despite the little longer wait and mix-up with entrees and appetizers. Overall, no complaints. I would return.“

“fantastic all around very much recommended“

“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.“

“We had a great dining experience. All was good. Will come back.we“

“Was in Lexington today. Best I’ve had in years! Got the fish and fries. The fish was great but the big surprise was the fries. I usually throw them away but these wee hot and crispy. Will definitely drive to Lexington for Captain D’s. Service was also fast and efficient.“
