Contemporary American
AZUR restaurant & patio was designed after European establishments providing the feel of being in a different place without leaving Lexington. The food is described as new American and Heirloom Contemporary. The chefs react to what comes at them from the local markets making our cuisine locally influenced, but worldly inspired. The walls are bold blues and greens with curves throughout. The interior space flows outside through three sets of French doors onto the elegant stone bordered brick patio. Weather permitting, the patio is opened and the patio sides could be lowered for inclement weather.

    The ahi tuna was the best I've ever had and was a huge portion, along with yellowtail sashimi that was delicious as well. The noodles it came with were ho hum, but who cares when you're feasting on high quality fish? Our entire party loved their meal!

    It was a lovely evening on the patio. Our server (Lenny) was wonderful and the food was solid. The live music was a nice touch however, at times was too loud to carry on a conversation. The chicken and fish dish were very good however the shrimp and coconut had too much breading. Would recommend this venue!

    Food and service was what I expected. Patio was also what I expected. Mike Archer was great, love his music and the reason why we went. My only concern was the price of beverages. I do not normally pay $5.00 for draft Coors Light or $14.00 for a Dewars scotch sour. A house scotch was requested and Dewars is a typical house scotch at other restaurants, but never have I paid $14.00 for Dewars. Should I go back I will avoid drinks other than water. By the way I do go to other comparable restaurants. I would recommend Azur but not for drinking.

    The food was good, the service was expectacular however the turned was the menu does tell you of a 3.5 extra charge for using credit card… the is the most turn off for a business build it in your already expensive prices, but a restaurant of your caliber completely downgraded the restaurant to a two stars.

    I really wanted to love this place but…it was auspicious when shortly after being seated I was told I would be treated to their signature cornbread, only to be informed, no exaggeration, 15-20 minutes later that they’re in fact out of cornbread. Okay, no big deal. I then ordered an entree only to be told then they were out of the accompanying corn slaw—again, not a big deal, substituted asparagus. These shortages were not the issue—the issue was ordering an overpriced entree that was more or less inedible (overcooked shrimp buried in layers of breading) and then ordering a greatly overpriced dessert (a very small jar of carrot cake crumbles topped with a layer of cheesecake) and being advised if I wished to take the dessert to go, there would be an up-charge to do so! I could’ve had a better dining experience at the local Waffle House. I left hungry and out $60

    Wife's entree "Leslie Ann" salad was wonderful. Unfortunately, she added chicken breast, which came out quite tough. The manager comped part of our meal to compensate, which helped. My chowder was first rate. The pasta entree I got was good, but had inedible artichoke leaves it it, which was annoying. We were indoors, which is always a bit challenging, noise-level-wise, but the service was super, and the special cocktail was great. Here's hoping their kitchen improves.

    We went for early-ish ( noon) brunch and everything was delicious. Service was good, but our server was the only one we saw on the floor for a while. She was killing it. The food portions are gigantic and next time we will split an entree, there was so much left over from the Hillbilly benedict. Highly recommend.

    Always a great place to eat in Lexington. The menu is innovative with frequent new specials. The wine list could have more variety, particularly for chardonnay, but the whiskey list is very good. Having an outdoor patio with cover, bar & fans gives several alternatives for seating.

    Great dining experience! I arrived early for a reservation and sat at the bar for 30 minutes before my party arrived. The bartender lady was very sweet, but I didn't catch her name. The spicy fried pickles were great, as well as the mozz chicken. Everyone else also seemed to really enjoy their meal. Service was outstanding as well. We'll definitely be back to try out more of the menu!

    We made a reservation very last minute and arrived early, so we were pleased to be seated right away. We had excellent service and enjoyed the meal very much. An unexpected surprise was having our server wish us happy anniversary. It seems OpenTable shared that with Azur when we made the reservation, so that was very nice. And we enjoyed the complimentary champagne very much.

    Fantastic food and service (shoutout to Kyle) at appropriate price points (not $$ but not $$$, somewhere in the middle). The daily specials (both food and drink) that aren’t shown on the default menu were a surprise treat and were very unique as well. Plus, when I selected the occasion choice as “Date Night” on open table, the staff spruced our table with a classy tablecloth, a small vase of flowers, and a candle. Also, there ended up being some soft smooth live instrumental soft rock music from a guitarist close to our table. All in all, a great, delicious, romantic experience, and my wife and I will be checking out the covered, fan-blown patio next time.

    Even though we were there for lunch on a Friday afternoon, in an essentially empty dining room, we were placed in a booth behind a pole, which made it very difficult to get in an out for my dining companion. When I suggested moving, she said she was all right to stay as she had already opened her Silverware and drunk some of her water. My friend had the risotto special, which I thought was a little heavy for lunch, but she thought it was quite good, although pricey for a lunchtime entrée. Speaking of lunch: there is no lunch menu per se. The menu is exactly the same as it is dinner time so you pay dinner time prices when you’re expecting lunch. I ordered the salmon sandwich  cooked medium. It arrived well done and on a bun so small it made it inedible as a sandwich. The “toppings“ were actually served on the side and added absolutely nothing to the sandwich. For $20 I’ve had a better fish sandwich at Ramseys! Our bill for lunch without any cocktails or dessert and only ice tea to drink was $58 for two. I’ve never been a fan of Azur and this visit did nothing to change my mind. I certainly won’t go back.
