    Went here for a late anniversary celebration had the most Amazing nachos followed up by perfectly seasoned jambalaya… had so much flavor. Steak was cooked perfectly. Last and definitely not least the bread pudding is amazing. Way more food than we could eat but glad we tried everything we did. We will definitely be going back!

    If you're only in Lexington for a short time ,- this is the place to go. If you live here and haven't tried Carsons, you should go. Love this place, especially the food, it's great. Enjoy

    The food was very good. The waiter was exceptional. Everything was delivered in a timely manner. We are not from the area but would come back when we are in town.

    My friends and I came into Lexington for a one day trip. We came to Carson’s for brunch, the food and ambiance was amazing. Our waiter Chris was also amazing, with a great attitude and sense of humor. We will most definitely be back when we come in town again.

    Carson’s brunch menu is extensive and loaded with delicious sounding items. I selected Jayme’s Pasta and Fruit Salad and it was absolutely amazing. The description sounds a bit odd, but it really works. My husband’s choice was equally delicious: a grilled ham and Gruyere sandwich and a side of biscuits and gravy. The portions are generous and our server was personable and efficient. We’ll definitely be back!
