Lost Palm

Really fun rooftop bar with lots of neat decor (the ultimate tiki bar vibes with the rattan and colors).Cocktails were absolutely amazing, they have a lot of unique flavors and drinks. Food was pretty solid, but the vegan options were not the greatest when they got colder.Service was great, it does get VERY loud on event nights.

Romantic, fun tropical vibe. Drink menu might be on the fruity side, but do know they serve regular drinks as well. Food menu is very limited but the few things we had were quite good. I was sorry they were out of the jerk chicken lollipops cause I really wanted to try them.Two of shared the Crab Dip with Plantain Chips, the Papas Fritas, the Cubano and Tres Leches cake. All were really good! Wise to make reservations! We chose to sit inside, but went outside for sunset and another drink. Service was terrific. Very much enjoyed our time at this rooftop bar of the gorgeous Manchester Hotel.

Recently went to Lost Palm, but was unable to get in due to all the (empty) tables being reserved. The hostess at Lost Palm definitely enjoyed her power trip gatekeeping and was pretty snide and rude to the parties in front of us that walked in. She offered us two seats at the bar, but when we walked in there were no seats available. Lost Palm is incredibly beautiful and unique - think vintage Miami or Palm Springs with ultra glam art deco influences. We hope to visit again but next time we will be sure and make reservations.As a result, we went back down to Granddam and had a fabulous experience with the much friendlier bar and waitstaff there. Our sazerac (off menu) and peachy old-fashioned (don't remember the name but it was a seasonal specialty) were both delicious and we enjoyed drinking them in the shady outdoor courtyard. Prices were definitely upscale (over $80 for 4 cocktails and tip); you also have to factor in the parking situation - we paid $20 for valet and tip for the valet team (valet is $11).We did not order food, but I will be back to try the fried grits! Both the male bartender with black hair and the burly male red headed server (didn't get names) both really shined in their service!Note that your only options for parking are a smallish paid lot across from the hotel ($2.25/hour I think is what the valet said) or the $11 valet. There is also a larger paid lot a short walk away and limited street parking in the surrounding area. Overall, $100 for a special cocktail date in Lexington is a bit high, but the unique design and level of luxury you feel in the space makes it worth it. The cocktail program was solid. I'd recommend maybe coaching the hostess at Lost Palm to be a bit friendlier to all clients - our experience was definitely not something we've experience even at much snootier Michelin Star restaurants around the world, and I felt really bad for the people and how she spoke to them. Pro tips: consider parking and make reservations before going to the Manchester.

The venue is very chic, I had gone in the past and wasn't huge about the menu, but this time around they switched it up and I really enjoyed dinner, I ordered the arepas and they where delish.

This is a cute little rooftop restaurant. There is an outdoor patio but there is also indoor seating. The empanadas were yummy. The drinks were strong and flavorful. It started drizzling while we were on the rooftop but our server was so nice we were able to move to the cabana. The server was very knowledgeable of the menu and the drinks.

The atmosphere was absolutely amazing! I feel like we are on vacation and we live here. The rooftop is incredible and we loved plants everywhere.We had cocktails which were super expensive ($18 each) and we loved the Jerk Chicken Lollipops!Can't wait to come back. They even had a giant portable tv that they brought out for college football.

Hands down the best rooftop bar experience available in Lexington. It's like being in a different state, and not simply just having an open air bar patio. Drinks were top notch, service was quick and efficient for such a busy Friday night, and had a blast. I greatly look forward to trying out the ground floor Granddam for the full experience. No wonder they're doing so well!

I went to the Lost Palm for my first time last evening and it did not disappoint! I live in Chicago but went to school at UK and have heard great things about Lost Palm but never got to go until now. When we got off the elevator, we were greeted by beautiful colors and friendly staff. We did not have a reservation but were told we could grab a drink at the bar and sit at an open table on the patio (until a reservation needed it). This honestly worked perfectly for us as all we wanted was a quick drink and that was all. I ordered the Blinkers On and my friend opted for the Baby Bird (non-alcoholic) and both of us raved about our drinks. Not only were they tasty, but also very cute too! I cannot write this review without noting how absolutely awesome the staff is - they are energetic, so kind and welcoming, and truly so much fun to interact with. I cannot recommend Lost Palm enough to anyone looking for pre-dinner drinks or some fun apps and drinks with girlfriends or for a date night! Thank you, Lost Palm, for an absolutely fantastic first experience - I will definitely be back the next time I'm in Lex!

Called an hour before our reservation to cancel because of weather and they offered us "stand up" or sit on a couch downstairs (we are a little past Charlie Browns). Zoey the manager was exceptionally condescending and rude. This place won't last due to the staff.

Not our cup of tea. This place had (in my opinion) expensive, not tasty drinks. The vibe is cute and very calm though. Lots of ladies enjoying drinks after work. We opted to not get food based on the options. The staff was polite.
