    I have been several times and always enjoy it. This was a special occasion, and I wanted everything to be perfect. For the most part it was great, Our server was MIA several times which got to be a little frustrating. But she was kind and always apologized for not circling back but it was a little frustrating that if you are apologizing for not getting back over, then you know it's an issue sooooo. Nevertheless, the food was great and we really enjoyed ourselves.

    Our server Desi was incredible. He was attentive, friendly and made food recommendations that we loved. We were in town visiting our son and family who live in Lexington. Every time we visit, we come to Carson’s.

    Whenever we're in Lexington, brunch at Carson's on Andover simply can't be missed! From the menu selections to the best cocktails, it is one of the most delightful places you'll find to enjoy a Sunday morning out. Our server this time was Ellis, and he was attentive and charming despite it being busy as usual. The Savory Chicken and Waffles was on point!
