    The restaurant is OK, but nothing to brag about. The food was moderate at best, with empanadas terrible and seemingly something out of a freezer bag from one of the processors of these sort of things. We did like their onion soup. Overall, I'm glad that we tried it, however, only to scratch it off the list of options.

    Tried Brasabana for the first time for an early dinner with a friend. The service was excellent. Cocktails were quite good. Appetizers and entree’s were outstanding and so visually appealing. You will not be hungry when you leave this place! Will definitely be back!

    We love cuban food and since we do not have any restaurants in Athens, GA serving any, we decided to search out somewhere while we were in Lexington, KY. This was a great find!!! They take reservations which is always a plus to me!! The menu had lots of choices and it was difficult to decide not to have a cuban!! But I love empanadas too and the sweet corn tamales sound divine. There are several toppings for the tamale and we ordered the mojo pork. Both dishes were really good. Presentation of both platings was top notch!! My favorite part was the mojo pork. Real flavor packed and perfectly cooked. We also enjoyed bloody marys! Service was excellent.

    This was our second visit in two days!! We had observed their special...pumpkin creme brulee french toast and decided that we had to come back to try it!! It was really a nice dish and the presentation was lovely. We also enjoyed their mimosas. Will definitely come back when we are in town. The service was also outstanding!!! Love their decor!

    Very large portions of delicious food. I ordered a more traditional Cuban dish and it was wonderful. Prices are very reasonable. A great experience.

    Great Cuban food in Lexington. Loved the Empanadas and Papas Rellenas. If in the mood for Cuban food, Brasabana is the place to go!

    Everything tasted great and the servers were very kind. The cocktails that we had were delicious and moderately priced for Lexington.

    This is the second time I have been at this restaurant. The first time I was with a large party of about 12. We sat in the front room at a long table had fabulous service and fabulous food. This time we sat in the back room which was full of children. Our waiter was new so he was doing his best and was attentive. The food was mediocre this time. My first visit was 2 years ago. Most likely I will choose another restaurant when I come to Lexington next time. My food was not bad but one person in our party had cold rice and another had the short rib dinner which had more fat than meat.

    We love Brasabana -- one of our regular restaurants for weekend dinner. Their saffron paella is my favorite dish though last night's paella was a bit bland. Latin Dip Trip is a must have appetizer. Everyone is friendly and casual.
