Palmers Fresh Grill

A real Lexington gem! Inside or patio seating you will enjoy beautiful and comfortable surroundings.The food is delicious! The menu has lots of choices so everyone can find something. Service is usually fast and always friendly. Peak weekend hours can have a wait. After dinner you can take a few moments to feed the ducks (when in residence)!

I recently went to Palmer's Fresh Grill in Lexington for brunch with a group of friends on a Sunday morning, and it was a great experience. Despite our group of 10, the staff was able to accommodate us, though we couldn't sit outside to enjoy the water view due to our size. But that didn't detract from the overall experience.I ordered the crab cake Benedict, and it was perfectly cooked and delicious. The flavors were spot-on, and the portion size was just right. I also had a cup of coffee, which paired well with the meal. Several of my friends opted for the mimosas, which were a big hit. Everyone in our group enjoyed their food, and we were all impressed by the quality.All in all, it's a great spot for brunch, and I would definitely go again. Highly recommend!

Fabulous service, beautiful space, and good food. Chowder was yummy and perfect for a wintry day. Catfish plate was good; super fresh. Would have loved a but more spice in the breading. Bread and olive oil was fresh and delicious. Service was excellent - attentive without being overwhelming.

The awesome aspect of this restaurant is definitely the great outdoor atmosphere. A little spot of serenity in the heart of "don't want to drive there" Lexington. The inside is nicely decorated as well.My food was just OK. I ordered the Club sandwich. The turkey on the club was worse than some I've had from fast food restaurants. Along the lines of processed pasteurized meat. Very gross and unexpected considering the price point. We loved the bread and dipping oil and my husband enjoyed his burger and truffle fries. He gave it an 8.5 out of ten. Our server was wonderful. However, getting seated was a process. Apparently the hostess had no clue as to what the situation was outside and had to go have a long conversation with a waitress and then had to go and get our table settings. Just seemed awkward and unprofessional for a nice restaurant. We were confused as to why the giant fans outside were pointing at the patrons sitting directly under the outdoor ceiling fans - none of which were turned on. Seems like a no-brainer to have the fans on low for those tables and use the large fans for the rest of the outdoor patronage. Fighting off the flies during our meal was a definite downer. There is also an amazing bar on the water with TONS of ceiling fans. The next time we go, we will definitely be sitting there! An excellent hang out space for drinks and snacks. Lunch for 2 was $50 plus tip. The restaurant is located on the backside of Lexington Green. There is an ice cream place next-door for dessert but their pricing is crazy high. We enjoyed our orders but definitely not a good value.

I love sitting on the patio and enjoying the ducks and beautiful weather! Had a fabulous mimosa on our recent visit and it was perfect. Christian was a great bartender!

Last night two of my friends and I went to Palmer's to celebrate one of my friends' birthday. It wasn't stifling hot outside so we opted to sit outside so that we could enjoy the view of the lane. I definitely recommend sitting outside if it's possible. I had the peach sangria to drink and it was light and refreshing--perfect for a summer evening. We split the calamari for an appetizer and it was good--not huge portions but the peanut sauce was a tasty change from the typical marinara sauce that you get at most places. I had the Caribbean chicken salad as my entree and it was okay. It wasn't served with very much dressing but I was able to get more from our server. I had a taste of my friend's shrimp and grits and it was outstanding. I would definitely recommend that next time!

This review is overdue. I came here for dinner with my friend and enjoyed our time during our stay. We sat outside to view the pond and thoroughly enjoy the fresh air (also, bring bug spray if you attract all the mosquitoes or bugs as I do). My friend and I ordered a couple of cocktails each as the weather outside was hot and humid. We ordered an on-the-rock margarita. As for the main entrees, I ordered the aged ribeye 14 oz. (medium-rare) and my friend ordered the French Quarter fettuccine. Both meals were delicious, and I highly recommend these options if you visit this establishment. For my dessert, I love the classic crème brûlée *thumbs up* There are plenty of parking spaces outside the building, and it's free. Finding this restaurant can be tricky, but if you come in from the front of the"shopping center," you will have to go through the bookstore, to the bottom floor, and head left, where I found the entrance.

When we arrived we were taken to a beautiful patio area overlooking the water. The Kentucky Mule and Old Fashioned with Vanilla Infused Makers Mark, were outstanding! The Imperial Flounder was very flavorful and covered in crab meat. Our waiter was polite and helpful. Love this place and will be back!

We found this restaurant by accident & worried when we saw it was in a mall but it was very nice. We sat outside by the water & it was beautiful. The food was very good and our server was very friendly.The only downside was it took awhile to get our first round of drinks

Very nice interior, big open clean windows overlooking the lake. Nicely decorated with high back booths. The seafood queso is fabulous, just the right amount of spice with nice hunks of seafood. The wonton crisps were fresh and delicious. My wife's gnocchi with grilled chicken was spectacular. The grilled pork chop was cooked perfectly. The mashed potatoes and apples were excellent. Our server Ashlyn was incredible. She was well informed, attentive and personable. We never had to ask for anything, she was right there. Highly recommend. We love locally owned places. This one is spot on.
