September 8, 201412 yr Doesn't have to be chain it can be anywhere. Love the local restaurants when traveling. Going there 2 times this month.
September 8, 201412 yr Old Chicago Pizza in Hamburg is a nice nice spot. 100+ beers and the pizza is awesome.
September 8, 201412 yr Depends on what you want. My brother says the Gray Goose is good. On Jefferson St. Known for their pizza's but have much more. I have heard there are several good restaurants on Jefferson St, but I have not eaten at any of them. Charliles on Winchester Rd is known for their fish sandwiches. Small little take out restaurant, but good if you like fish. Would be good for lunch. If you want a really good place, my favorite is Merrick Inn. Go to the patio, no reservations needed and less pricey. Located off of Tates Creek. There are a lot of good places to eat in the Hamburg area too.
September 8, 201412 yr City bbq on Richmond rd is pretty good. As stated above Old Chicago is a good bet as well. New Cuban place I really like, Brassabana, 841 Lane Allen road. It's really good. Brasabana Cuban Cuisine | Lexington KY | Latino Nuevo | Cuban Food - brasabana.com
September 8, 201412 yr I'm surprised no one has mentioned Joe Bologna's yet, because it seems to be the "hot spot" in Lexington. However, if you want the best pizza in Lexington, go two blocks to 385 S. Limestone, and hit up Pazzo's (Pazzo's Pizza Pub). Fantastic pizza, and 47 beers on tap. We stumbled in to this place a few years ago, and will never go back to JB's. OUTSTANDING!

September 8, 201412 yr Last time in Lex, we stopped by Johnny Carino's and it was pretty good. My crew loves Italian food and they all liked it very much.
September 8, 201412 yr Pazzo's is much better than Joe's.Never tried Pazzo's but I will put it on the list.
September 8, 201412 yr We also really like Malone's. Great steaks and one of the best dishes they serve is their chicken fingers. If you order chocolate cake, make sure you only order one for the whole table. wow.
September 8, 201412 yr Ramsey's, AP Suggins, Saul Good, Guiseppe's (if you don't mind good Italian food and a connection to Pitino), if you like wings and don't mind to-go (i.e., tailgating) then Indi's has the best wings IMO. Decent range of prices and variety of foods in those restaurants too. Generally speaking, I'd say the cost of a dinner at each of those goes up the list in ascending order. All of those are favorites of mine that aren't really chains and I try to hit up at least one or two of them on each trip back.
September 8, 201412 yr If you like Cajun food, Bourbon n' Toulouse on Euclid Avenue is very good and VERY reasonable. As previously mentioned, it's hard to beat Pazzo's for pizza and beer. The Mellow Mushroom on Upper Street also very good.
