The Best Restaurants in Lexington, Kentucky | Eater Nashville

"This classic American steakhouse has a keen sense of service at its core. Tony’s of Lexington offers eclectic urban vibes mixed with traditional Southern charm in a space that lends itself to a romantic date, group dinner, or solo night at the bar. Go for the classic steakhouse experience here: Start with Blue Points on the half shell or Rassatti beef tartare, followed by a grilled Caesar salad. Entree options include pasta dishes and a New Zealand rack of lamb, but the steaks are not to be missed. Try the bone-in rib-eye, a hefty cut cooked to perfection." - Lennie Omalza

I had an excellent business dinner at Tony’s of Lexington. The restaurant is beautifully designed and well-maintained, with a warm and elegant atmosphere. The staff were extremely attentive and accommodating throughout the evening. The menu offers a wide range of tempting dishes, but the true highlight is the steaks — I went with one myself, and it did not disappoint. Despite the restaurant being full, the noise level was perfectly manageable, allowing for easy conversation. Service was both friendly and efficient. Overall, a fantastic experience — I’ll gladly return!

The friendliness of the staff is very welcoming and made me feel valued as a customer as I entered the establishment. The selection of the food, wine and drinks are amazing. The fillet steak that I had was literally the best steak I’ve ever had and was very very tender and flavorful..It was cooked and prepared to perfection. The waiter was one of the friendliest and nicest I’ve had ever. Thanks Stuart.Tony’s of Lexington is a must if you are ever in Lexington. Highly recommend and will definitely be back. Thank you to every working at this establishment when I visited that made this an incredible experience.

Tony’s does not disappoint! Enjoyed a great meal, excellent drinks, and exceptional service. Our waiter, Troy, was very helpful and accommodating with a table of 8 on a decently busy Friday. The entire group was impressed with the level of attention to detail and hospitality we received, which was also evident in the entrees, appetizers, salads, and drinks we tried. Our table ended up ordering a decent percentage of what was on the menu, and we had no complaints whatsoever. Certainly stop by Tony’s if you have the chance.

We had reservations for dinner and were seated as soon as we got there. The restaurant is both busy and loud so it makes it a little difficult to carry on a conversation. We started with the mixed greens salad and our drinks included wine and a martini. The salad was excellent. For entrees we had the shrimp and grits plus the blackened yellowfin tuna. The shrimp dish was just okay, I expected it to be spicier and it was a little bit too sweet for my taste. The tuna was excellent. Our server for the evening was great, prices are on the high side, but that's to be expected for a steak place. I would definitely return when in the area.

My correct profile. As a top 10% reviewer nationwide, per Google Local Guides, I do recommend Tony's to you. My husband made our reservations 4 weeks ago. This is the place to come when visiting Lexington, Kentucky. My filet was tender, juicy, and wonderfully seasoned. This is an up-scale place to dine. Pricey, but worth it.

Tony’s is one of those spots you go to when you want to enjoy a really nice meal out. The prices are definitely on the steep side, but every now and then, good food is worth a little extra — and Tony’s consistently makes that feel like money well spent. We ordered a bit of everything: oysters on the half shell, braised short ribs, pasta pescatore, filet mignon, the wagyu special 22oz tomahawk, New Zealand rack of lamb, snapper, calamari, and mac & cheese. The oysters were fresh and enjoyable, though we’ve had better elsewhere. The calamari was good — crispy and flavorful — but nothing particularly unique. The mac & cheese was delicious and cooked perfectly, super creamy and rich. It’s definitely indulgent and may not be everyone’s favorite side, but we enjoyed it. As for the main dishes — they absolutely delivered. The wagyu tomahawk was the highlight: tender, flavorful, and melt-in-your-mouth perfect. The lamb was beautifully seasoned and cooked just right. The snapper was flaky and light, and the pasta pescatore had a great balance of flavors. The braised short ribs and filet were also solid choices. The only real miss for us was the mashed potatoes — a bit too heavy on the horseradish for our liking, but that’s more about personal taste than anything else. For dessert, we had the cheesecake — and it surprised us in the best way. It had more of a pound cake taste, and we loved it. Our server, Sam, was truly outstanding. He knew the menu inside and out and answered our questions before we could even ask. Attentive without being overbearing, and genuinely made the whole experience even better. Tony’s might not be our go to all the time in Lexington, but it’s a place we’ll definitely return to when we’re in the mood for a well-crafted meal and top-notch service

3-Star Experience at Tony’s – Potential, But Not Quite There Yet As they say, first impressions matter, and my first experience at Tony’s left much to be desired. While there were some positives, the overall experience fell short of the upscale dining standard Tony’s seems to aim for. Atmosphere: We had a 7:30 pm reservation for a business dinner with a party of eight. Despite the reservation, no tables were available upon arrival, and we ended up waiting awkwardly by the door for 30 minutes. The restaurant was crowded, and there was no designated waiting area, forcing us to repeatedly step aside for waitstaff and other customers. It’s puzzling why the second floor isn’t utilized, even if just as a waiting area, to alleviate this issue. Eventually, a high-top table was assembled for us near the bar, which felt like a makeshift solution rather than a thoughtful accommodation. Food and Drinks: The evening got off to a rocky start with the drinks. After the waiter listed the available draft beers, I ordered a brown ale, only to be told minutes later that they were out. I then asked for a Guinness, but they were out of that as well. This lack of communication between the bar and waitstaff created unnecessary frustration and made the service appear disorganized. At that point, I switched to bourbon—which, frankly, I needed after all that. The appetizers were solid, though not exceptional. The mussels, calamari, tuna tartare, and beef tartare were all good, with the tuna tartare being the standout. The sausage, however, was a bit dry. For the main course, I had the dry-aged pork chop. The meat itself was cooked perfectly and tasted delicious, but the side of whipped sweet potatoes with marshmallows was a questionable choice. The combination was overwhelmingly sweet, more like a dessert than a side dish. While I understand the idea of pairing pork with something sweet, this was far from subtle—it felt like two unrelated dishes forced onto one plate. The fried mushrooms were unexpectedly spicy, which wasn’t mentioned on the menu. This came as an unpleasant surprise. The other sides were decent, but nothing memorable. Dessert was a crème brûlée, which was fine but lacked the signature glass-like crack when tapped with a spoon. It felt like a missed opportunity to end the meal on a high note. Overall Impression: Tony’s has potential, but there are several areas that need improvement to match the upscale dining experience it strives to offer. The atmosphere felt cramped and lacked the comfort and luxury of a high-end steakhouse. The underutilization of space and disorganized service further detracted from the experience. While the food had its highlights, the inconsistencies and questionable pairings left me underwhelmed. If you’re looking for a true steakhouse experience in Lexington, Jeff Ruby’s remains the top choice. I hope Tony’s can refine its offerings and operations to live up to its ambitions. Wishing them the best of luck!

Tony's had maybe the best steak I've ever eaten in my whole life. The bone-in ribeye was cooked perfectly to order. Service was prompt, atmosphere was classy. Sam the waiter was awesome. We mentioned we were on our honeymoon and Sam brought a dessert on the house! Amazing dining experience all around.

Tony's of Lexington is a true standout among steakhouses, effortlessly blending classic excellence with contemporary flair. From the moment you step inside, the sleek, modern decor and elegant ambiance make a lasting impression. Every detail, from the stylish lighting to the comfortable seating, is thoughtfully designed to enhance your dining experience. The service at Tony's is exceptional--professional, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The staff is knowledgeable about the menu and wine list, ensuring that every recommendation enhances your meal. The star of the show, of course, is the steak. Each cut is cooked to perfection, with a juicy, flavorful bite that showcases the quality of the meat. Whether you opt for a ribeye, filet mignon, or any of their other offerings, you're in for a treat. The sides are equally impressive, with options like truffle mac and cheese and perfectly seasoned vegetables complementing the main course beautifully. Tony's of Lexington is more than just a meal; it's an experience. The combination of contemporary style, impeccable service, and outstanding cuisine makes it a must-visit destination. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a top-tier steakhouse experience.

A great steakhouse. In this area (Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee) Jeff Ruby's is the steakhouse by which all others will be judged. Tonys of Lexington's steaks were just as juicy and delicious and the kicker was I made the reservation the day before, Jeff Ruby was fully booked a week and half out. It's a very nice restaurant with the typical steakhouse decor though on the upscale side with heavy wooden tables and comfy leather covered chairs. It is a bit dark though and a tad loud. When I made the reservations the day before there were a lot of times available, they must have filled them all as the restaurant was packed when we arrived. They offered valet parking which was quite inexpensive as you get a discount with a reservation at Tony's. The sophisticated staff were very friendly and dressed in black and white. We were seated right away and service was at the right pace, never feeling rushed or waiting very long for drinks, appetizers and entrees. We started with complimentary bread and two kinds of butter, oysters (stick with the east coast oysters, the special Kumamoto oysters tasted a bit spoiled, as they usually do, I'm sure they're not as we didn't get sick, maybe that's how they all taste), jumbo lump crab cake which was delicious and your standard steakhouse Caesar salad. The steaks were phenomenal. Tender and well seasoned and cooked to perfection. I got the ribeye, my daughter had the filet and both were delicious and succulent as a great steak should be. For some reason my wife had some pasta dish, which she said was good but who gets pasta at a steakhouse. lol. Tony's of Lexington, when it comes to steakhouses, it comes second to none.

Maybe it was an off day, 3.5 stars. Service - Valet did not acknowledge that our car pulled up. We waited...and... waited... and during that time, not even a hint that they saw us. Leaving, we waited 15+ minutes for Valet to bring our car around. This time, they opened the front and back passenger doors. Service - It was not a weekend. Our server was less than stellar. Tertiary pleasantries and lacked attentiveness. He was menu knowledgeable. The runners made sure food was timed perfectly and our water glasses were full. Food - The New York was tough, tougher than it should be. The ribeye was not medium rare, as ordered. Aside from that, the appetizers, salads, steak toppings, and sides (especially the 5 cheese mac) were delicious.

My husband and I stopped in Lexington during our drive home, and our AirBnB Super Host recommended Tony's for a good steak. We had not made a reservation, but it was late in the evening and they were quickly able to seat us. We ordered the crab cake appetizer. It was one single, delicious mound of crab meat, which wasn't overwhelmed by breading as they usually are. We also shared a medium-rare filet mignon, which our server, kindly split onto two plates. When in Kentucky, it's hard not to order a cocktail with Bourbon! I enjoyed the Manhattan, which was delicious...

Where to begin, my wife and I were celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary and wanted to enjoy a nice dinner. Per several recommendations from colleagues and friends we picked Tony's. Upon arrival we were greeted and asked if we were celebrating a special occasion, we shared that it was our anniversary. The atmosphere was very inviting and comfortable. Once we were seated we were greeted by several different people asking if we needed anything just to let the know. The meal was absolutely phenomenal from start to finish! We started the evening with the crab cake as an appetizer, full of delicious lump crab, seasoned perfectly, perfect for sharing. Then moved to the mixed green salad which was excellent as well. For our entrée we both went with the filet. Steak was cooked perfect medium rare, very tender and full of flavor. For sides we went with mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese and braised greens. Common theme, everything was excellent. For dessert we finished the evening with crème brûlée, you guessed it, perfect! My wife and I enjoyed a great evening celebrating our anniversary with a meal that was absolutely perfect from start to finish! During our meal we were greeted by both managers asking about food and service. For me that most meaningful thing was the hand written thank you card that I received from Tony's thanking us for stopping in and trusting them for our dining experience on our 30th anniversary. In my opinion this takes customer service to a new level, you are the benchmark! Thank you for a great meal and very memorable evening, can't wait to visit again!

Came here for a work dinner and had a great time. Service was on point, friendly and professional. Food was amazing! Started with the crab cake and steak tartare, both were delicious. I got the pork chop, two colleagues got the filet and one got the sea bass. We got the Mac n cheese, creamy spinach, Brussel sprouts, truffle wedges, and sweet potato. Brussel sprouts could have been better if they had a bit of a char on them but that's just my opinion. Everything was excellent.

After PGA, we moved to Lexington for the night. So glad we made reservations a month ahead. Everyone was so friendly & accommodating. The steaks were incredible and so delicious. It is a must to try Tony's if you're in town. The bar area is a little loud. But the piano player made it much better!

Tony's has a nice open and beautiful ambiance. The staff is extremely friendly. Our server was good not great. Forgot a few things and didn't check on food after getting it. Our table ordered 2 off the exact same steaks medium and one came out perfectly cooked and the other was way over done. I was bummed on that part. All the other food, drinks, and desserts were delicious. Tony's is way better than Jeff Ruby's.

AMAZING!! Favorite restaurant in Lexington. Do yourself a favor and order the crab cake. It is the best I've ever had. The steak is amazing. Always cooked to the temperature I ask. My fiancé's favorite is the mashed sweet potatos. They remind him of thanksgiving! The cheesecake is also fabulous- it's brûléed so it gives the cheesecake a little crunch!

YUM!! We came in before the Kentucky basketball game for a quick dinner and had the best food and service. The complimentary bread with the two butter options are *chef kiss*!

Came here for a night out with my fiancé and this place did not disappoint. We got lucky with street parking, as their valet is $25. I highly recommend making reservations as this place gets busy. The interior was very classy, and they had a live band which was a nice touch. They also have a more casual area near the bar, so this is a great spot for a date or casual dinner. We were seated immediately and greeted by our waiter shortly after that. He went through the menu in detail with us and made great recommendations. The bread was freshly baked and had a warm soft interior with a perfect crispy exterior. The bourbon cream butter was absolutely delicious!! We decided to go with the tuna tartare, ribeye steak, and pistachio pesto pasta. To our surprise the tuna came out in thick cubes, which is not how tartare is typically made but it was absolutely delicious and the crema that it came with was a great addition with the side salad. The pesto was decent, it was a little dry, and we couldn't really taste the pistachio in the pesto, however there were pistachios in the pasta. The ribeye was the star of the show. It is a 24oz bone in rib-eye and is packed with flavor, honestly of of the best steaks I've had. Highly recommend this place.

I will start by stating that the staff did everything possible in an effort to try make the best of the underwhelming entrée. I have previously enjoyed cocktails at Tony's, but after a long day standing on a convention expo floor, I had a desire for a great steak. Unfortunately, that was not what I got. We ordered a couple of cocktails, and they were delicious. Started with salads, I had a Caesar, and my dining companion had the Seasonal Beet Salad. The Caesar was good, however, the Seasonal Beet Salad was amazing. We had a late reservation, and had snacked earlier, so we decided to split the Sir Barton, which is a 14 oz Prime Cut New York Strip and a baked potato. This is where the meal took a decisive downturn. We ordered rare to medium rare, and they split the steak in the kitchen. The steak looked perfect when it arrived, however, one half was closer to rare, and most of the other half was closer to well done. Oddly, there were about two bites on my half which were rare, and the rest was closer to well. Unfortunately, the doneness wasn't really the issue. I am from Kansas, and a bit spoiled when it comes to beef, but for a $58 cut, in a high end steakhouse, I expected better. I am guessing the steak wasn't marbled, as it was tough, and not very favorable. I pointed out my disappointment in the steak to our server, but since the steak was not inedible, I powered through it. In an attempt to make up for the steak, the manager sent out a Filet. I appreciated the gesture, but filet is not my preferred cut. It was perfectly prepared, however, like the Strip, lacked flavor and was mealy. The baked potato wasn't any better, its skin (which is usually my favorite part) was so tough it was difficult to cut with a steak knife, and the bottom was close to burned. We may have just had an unusual bad experience, however, this was the most disappointing $200 meal I have ever had.

10 out of 10! The food was excellent and the staff was amazing! I originally made reservations for 4 and had a last minute addition to our party. They were able to accommodate us on a busy night, which they didn't have to do. We enjoyed every item we ordered. Shrimp & Grits, Bourbon sweet potatoes, the pork chop was juicy and flavorful. The crème brûlée cheesecake was amazing as well! I will definitely dine here again when visiting Lexington.

Had many people recommend this place, including coworkers. We were told this was a must stop while traveling here for training. A group of us decided to give this a try. The ambiance is very classy, making you feel like you are in a place worth every dollar you spend. Service is very friendly and prompt. Our waitress was happy to explain the menu to us and all the daily specials. It was a great experience...until the food came out. I'll start by saying the bread and butter is actually phenomenal. Excellent start to the dining experience. We all ordered the dry aged New York strip, ranging from medium rare to medium. This steak was honestly the most underwhelming steak I have ever had, and for $79 is a little upsetting. I'd rather have a chain steakhouse steak than go back here for steak. Mine was so tough my steak knife felt like trying to use a butter knife and I had to gnaw on the pieces for a minute to swallow them. The sides were good, except my mac and cheese was served warm, not hot. Coworkers said the mashed potato's were too sweet and buttery, but I didn't try them. I'm sure other items on the menu are very good, but buyers beware of the dry aged steak.

Another Breeders Cup in Lexington and another trip to Tony's. Pretty similar experience as the last time here with great atmosphere, service & Vibe while some of the food is outstanding yet the steak disappoints. Soutdough bread and butter outstanding followed by outrageously good Shrimp cocktail with nice spicy horseradish sauce TOP SHELF. Side salads equally good, large cold fresh tasty. The steaks are not worth the price point though as They were good size and looked great but the Rib Eye was overcooked the 1st time then undercooked the 2nd time at $90.00 It can't happen. The NY Strips were good but a little tough for my taste at $68.00 each. Sides were good. Seems consistent bordering on greatness but they just can't get it to the next level.

It was okay. The tuna tartar is the only thing I'd really rave about. Everything else was sub par especially for the price:(

I took my wife here for her birthday, and to say I was underwhelmed is an understatement. Yes, my expectations were high and I found the food to be palatable, but far from being great and no where in reasonable proximity of exceptional. We both had steak and considered it to be no more flavorful than what we can grill at home. The sides were serviceable but not exceptional. The atmosphere is rather dark and foreboding, and their attempt to make it appear up-scale falls flat in my opinion. One bright spot was a cheerful and knowledgeable waiter, but his efforts were overshadowed by a condescending and rude maitre d' whose purpose was not discernible, but whose presence was annoying and oddly creepy. There are far too many dining options in Lexington that are far superior to Tony's.

We waited at the bar and the bartenders were fabulous. They were the best part of our evening. We had to wait past our reservation time for our table and it took an hour to get our food. This was after 8 pm. My husband's ribeye was only slightly warm. My filet was good and tender but I ordered au pointe sauce which had great flavor but was so strong peppercorn flavor i could barely eat. If someone had told me how strong I would not have ordered. I love au poivre but never had it this strong. The service was only mediocre at best. For same price I have had way better service just down the road and the food was better as well. Especially after waiting so long.

The food is 5 star! Delicious! The ambience is a 1. There's nothing great about eating a $300 meal against a grey wall at a tiny table. We would have been better satisfied sitting at the bar eating our steaks. Tony's needs a designer in the worst way. Our waiter was fine but he didn't ask if it was a special occasion which it was & I had noted it when I made the reservation. The take away is if you want a excellent meal without the ambience eat at Tony's of Lexington. Recommend the crab cake & bone in filet chef kisses

The steaks here are so delicious. Cooked perfectly to order and seasoned just right. The staff is dressed to the tee and ready to make all patrons feel welcome and happy. The decor is modern.

This was a great steakhouse. I attended a work banquet and everything was on point. The steak was cooked as ordered. The drinks were good and strong. The salad was very good. The restaurant is pretty loud due to the layout and the fact that I was there for a work banquet. Service was on par with what I would expect for a fine dining establishment.

I went to Tony's for a birthday dinner. This place was very disappointing for was very excited to go because I heard it was really nice but the food an ambience was just average. But for the price below average in my opinion. As a caveat I did not get steak but what I did order was just alrighty OK. Lol Except the Mac and cheese it was really good. I ordered the crab cake it was just ok not worth 25 dollars. The Brussel sprouts were not great. They service sour dough bread with a sweet butter (weird). The bread was good and butter but they don't really mate well together. The truffle wedges were the worst fries I've ever had, they were extra crispy and many were just burnt black. I will not go back!!! The service was better than the food I thought that the people were nice. Highly disappointing to be so up scale!!

The steak was well cooked, I didn't think that it was seasoned all that well, it was just a well cooked steak. I was going to get garlic butter on it and the waiter told me to put it on the side because the taste of the steak was great without it, pretty much disagree with that thought. Nothing here was bad nor was anything amazing. I'm typically a Jeff Ruby's guy, but a lot of people I know were raving about Tony's. Honestly, it was fine, just wasn't the best or memorable enough to go back. Maybe it's one of those things that I'm used to Ruby's so I always prefer it and those that love Tony's always love that.

One of the best steakhouses in town. The food is always amazing, as well as the service. Some of my favorite things to get are the beef tartare as appetizer and also the oysters! Some of my favorite entrees to get are the lamb chops, porterhouse, and ribeye. Some of my favorite sides are the Mac and cheese, and truffle fries. There bread and butter is so delicious and soft.

Another business dinner and this was excellent. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and the food was excellent. Bit pricey but definitely worth a visit.
