I think things have changed in Lexington when it comes to service after the pandemic. When we arrived tge hostess told us to sit “wherever” Our meals at Staves were okay. My fried chicken was unsalted but fair with the sides. No salt shakers on table. My dining companion had the lamb chops. They were good but sides were not. My collard greens were not hot at all. The cornbread appetizer with jams and the salads were very good here and are to be recommended. The server did not give us silverware so we had to grab from another table. Drinks were replenished, but nobody checked on our meals after the food was served. At the end of the meal, the server asked if we wanted our check and though I’d have preferred dessert, none was offered. Check comes and we were left with plates in front of us. Nobody bothered to clear them. I paid, left 20% in cash and we left. For an $80 meal in, dooryard to say this, unsophisticated Lexington, Kentucky, I expected more. I can’t decide if Staves merits another visit.

Food and service was great! At 6pm over the summer the sun beams through the windows and is blinding, even with the shades down. The restaurant had great ambiance but was very hot and stuffy. Drinks were good! Overall a great experience.

Staves is located in a beautiful area. The restaurant has a wall of glass that allows a full outdoor view which is lovely. The restaurant is beautiful, somewhat intimate, but appropriate for families or couples or business dinners. The service was excellent, server was pleasant and knowledgeable. The wine list was sufficient but not expansive. The summit cocktail was unique, perfectly poured and delicious. We ordered the burgoo, shrimp and grits and the lamb chops. The burgoo was good, thick and meaty. The shrimp and grits were tasty but somewhat greasy and the tail was still on the shrimp. The sides of the lamb chop dish was tasty, but the lamb tasted a bit gamey and un flavorful. Although it was cooked to perfection. We ended the meal with the bread pudding which was excellent, moist, not too sweet and more than enough for two people.

Service was slow..it seemed like only one server was available to all the tables. And they were out of several of the menu options. The waffle my daughter got was smaller than expected and not the best, lacking in taste and limited toppings. Omelette was good but home fries nothing to write home about. This has a lot of potential they just aren’t there yet. They need to step it up to attract area foodies :) have a gluten free waffle option with organic maple syrup or gf chicken and waffles and it will be more attractive! Check out table 33 in dayton ohio or Northstar for inspiration.
