Epping's on Eastside

It's always a treat to go to Epping's Eastside. We love their bright ambience, and their food and drinks never fail.Sunday Brunch was the quest and I ordered the special of lump crab over cheese grits, and it was really amazing. They offer carafes of mimosas and Bloody Mary's as well making it perfect to share with friends. My hubs ordered the traditional breakfast & said the eggs were cooked perfectly & the cheese put it over the top.The espresso martini- chef's kiss! Made with Nate's Coffee, one of my local faves.

Went to Epping's for a birthday brunch. Overall we had a great experience. I had the Eggs Benedict which was delicious but a little bit small. Two friends had the breakfast platter which was good. One had the breakfast burrito which ended up being just ok. Edit for more detail.. she ordered the burrito without onions and it came to the table with lots of onions. The server took it back and they remade it but this time it had basically just eggs and cheese on top of fries, more like a bowl. She wasn't upset, just wasn't what she thought she was getting. We enjoyed everything else very much! We all did the bottomless Bellinis which were very good! Our server was very sweet and never made us feel rushed. They had a drag brunch going on in the other the room and that looked like so much fun! Would love to go back another time for that. I look forward to going back for dinner sometime.

Revisited Eppings for happy hour with a friend after my last experience a few years ago and was pleasantly surprised. We got the around 4 :30 on a Thursday and were sat immediately. Our server Nigel was phenomenal and the food was better than I remember.The blue crab bisque is my favorite thing. You MUST order it! The small plates we ordered to share were: the rosemary focaccia, vegetable spring rolls, chicken satay, arugula and beet salad that was on special. Everything was tasty although some things did take a while to get to our table. There was some confusion with the desserts (I ordered a butterscotch bourdine that was on special but received a apple cake) so I won't review them but overall a lovely experience. Ask for Nigel.

Went on Valentine's Day for one of my best friends birthday. We had a great time all the food was amazing and flavorful and the service was also outstanding! The restaurant was also super cute and clean. I got the beef ragu which was the special of the day and beef tallow fries.

We had several visitors coming to Lexington for an insurance industry event, so we rented on of the rooms for our dinner event.Upon arrival, we were greeted by the staff that was taking care of our event. The room was set up perfect. We had an offering of wines, beers and a huge cheese board, while everyone was mingling and talking.Our preselected foot and drink menu made everything run more smoothly.The event space at Epping's was top notch and I appreciate all the staff that helped with our event on Thursday night.

The arepas are so good. Customer Service was nothing to write home about especially for the prices, but the restaurants super cool and the foods delicious.

Great brunch spot! Have been here a couple of times and the food and drinks are always amazing. Highly recommend the smash burger with house chips. A reservation is not needed but recommended.

A beautiful restaurant and a great place for brunch. It looks like a huge sun room, with white walls and huge windows, tables and booths with comfortable cushioned chairs. The staff was friendly from our host to our waiter and service was extremely quick though they didn't rush us while getting our orders and let us sit there and enjoy the company of the people we met after we were done eating. The food was good for most, my non breakfast entree, the Frisco Melt smash burger was quite bland and dry. The side of grits, I dare say was more flavorful, should have gone with shrimp and grits. The others at the table got the burrito, chicken and waffles, and the Turkey club. They seem to have enjoyed their selections. Epping's is a solid choice for brunch while you're in Lexington, though I'd stick with breakfast entrees. Or just have coffee and enjoy the beautiful morning in their sun room.

We had an excellent first time at Epping's for an anniversary dinner.The staff were friendly and accommodated food allergies with care.The restaurant was spacious, quiet, and clean.We started with the Eastsider and Natini for drinks. Eastsider was tasty and Natini had strong coffee.For small plates, we ordered the pork belly burnt ends. Our sever recommended the crispy Brussels sprouts and heirloom carrots, so we ordered those too. We thought the Brussels and pork belly were done very well. The carrots were good but not remarkable.For large plates, we both ordered the skirt steak. It was cooked to temperature and enjoyed their take on the dish.Worth noting menu online didn't correspond to the menu in person. We did appreciate how the ingredients seem to be seasonal and fresh!

Great food and service. Lovely place to have a dinner, though it can be noisy at times. Love the happy hour menu. The $5 old fashioned is a deal! and the $10 burger is to die for (one of the best in Lexington). Highly recommend for a date or to meet friends. Probably bit noisy for a business meal.
