    Was very disappointed in my experience at the Palomar location. While our server was nice the service was slow. Took 20 to 30 minutes for drinks from the bar. Our meals came out before the salads. Was not happy with my experience tonight.

    One of my favorite restaurants in Lexington. Food is consistently good, service outstanding. Depending on the crowd around can sometimes be a little noisy but overall great atmosphere.

    our salad was brown when brought out we asked for another one that one came out same as or worse than #1. salad was dropped off and left quickly 15 min later came and asked if it was better we told her no its same if not worse. she said sorry to hear that walked off. server was not very good she was hard to track down and only checked on us a few times. we got drinks refilled 2 times by others. someone else brought out our food. we were almost done eating before our server came by check on us see if food came out ok. food other wise was good wife had chicken with mushrooms and bourbon glaze i had the salmon with lemon flavor and brussels sprout. we both had very active bowls when we left from eating unsure what was in the food but didn't agree with either one of us. we will not go back we will spend our $ else where.

    My wife and I ate here celebrating our 8th Anniversary. We both ordered the Fillet and crab Rangoon roll combo. Bothe were delicious! Service was good. We enjoyed the dinner there immensely.

    Service was subpar poor communication with an attitude. Created a poor experience with friends from out of town. MOD and hostess staff polite.
