First time at the Lexington and we'll definitely be going back! Loved it!
This place has street appeal. So, we stopped in while looking for a new place to go for date night. Great menu. Not too busy or too loud.
The food was great! I'm an IPA fan, but I'm sure they have a beer to make you happy. They also have some of the best trained servers I've ever seen. You will be taken care of.
Great brunch place for some dirty delicious comfort food and breakfast cocktails. «The Calvin» sandwich was greasy, gooey delicious. The caramelized onions added just the right amount of sweetness to the cheese ratio and the homemade ketchup was a nice touch. Honestly, the tots were good but probably the weakest part of the meal. Service was friendly and efficient. Overall good experience. Looking forward to trying out the dinner menu.
Really great value and awesome service!
Ordered the meat platter with fork and knife chicken, pulled pork as the two meats and Mac and cheese and egg potato salad as the two sides. It came with cornbread and the best jam topping! The brussel sprout starter is very big and can be a great sharing platter for 3+ people.
There is a patio or indoor seating, bar and QR code menu. Would come back to try more dishes on the menu. :)
Delicious food (had the brisket handheld). My friend had the fork n knife and liked it. I also loved my Shady Lady cocktail which was well balanced (not too sweet or acidic). And the waiter I had was awesome. He's probably the friendliest/nicest waiter I've ever had in Canada!
Have been here twice now, one for dinner and once for brunch. When we went for dinner we tried the bbq platter which was wonderful because we got to sample a bit of everything. The brunch pop up was also really great. Tried the loaded tots which were good but also quite rich. Great service and lovely ambience.
Was super excited to find a more upscale BBQ house in Ottawa! I had the Carolina pulled pork sandwich, which was super juicy and flavourful! Vibe inside was super cozy and rustic. The staff were also top notch, and great to have a conversation with. Thanks for a great visit!

If you're looking for a cozy spot to enjoy a delicious meal, I recommend trying the fried chicken at LExington's!

I got their "Fork + Knife Chicken", which was part of the Handhelds section of the menu. It includes their signature fried chicken ,creamy slaw, honey - habanero drizzle, salted caramel butter, and buttermilk biscuit ($23).
.
The medley of flavours was AMAZING. The chicken was fried well, crispy, and full of flavour. The creamy slaw helped to balance the richness of the fried chicken, and the salted caramel butter gave the dish a surprising sweetness that paired well with the spice from the habanero drizzle.
.
You get a choice of a side, so I chose to upgrade to a Pulled pork poutine - worth the $5 more! The fries were the thinner type, with yummy gravy and their pulled pork. Soooo good.
.
Tell me below, would you go for their "fork + knife chicken", a burger, puled pork, brisket, or jack fruit?
Second time visiting. Returned primarily because of the drinks, but the food was great too. Brought the sister in law to try. Drinks are prohibition, Boyfriend Jeans, and Bourbon Detox. Food is the Brisket Stack and the BBQ platter with Smoked Turkey, Pulled pork, Brussel sprouts and the potatoe salad. We started with the Cauliflower Bombs and the Burnt Ends. (No photos). Amazing food.
