- DDerekCentral Kentucky •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoThe atmosphere and ambiance were great! The service was wonderful, and the food was delicious! The seating was a bit tight for my liking. Most of the seating is along walls with long couches on one side and chairs on the other. There was about 12" between us and the tables on either side. So, it's hard to have a private dinner, but it wouldn't deter me from going back. My wife and I truly enjoyed it!More infoLockbox at 21c HotelPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Lexington•4.7
- AANTHONYCentral Kentucky •4 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoNever a bad experience everytime we have been there! David was our waiter and gave us 5 star service. Very efficient and didn't miss one detail. Laughing with us when we made jokes makes it a fun experience. Telling us that he had been an employee there since 2017 reaffirmed that we had one of the best serving us. Food is always good however lettuce wedge was a little bitter but that happens. We are very fond of Blue Heron and will be returning often!!More infoBlue Heron SteakhousePrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Lexington•4.8

- PPatrickCentral Kentucky •4 reviews4.0Dined on 8 Feb 2025The restaurant is very nice and clean, the staff and server were really good but maybe a bit over stretched. The drinks were fantastic.
