33 Staves

We are in town for a business dinner meeting and most of our employees are staying at Origin Hotel.We met for drinks and apps at 33 Staves and have had wonderful service by Martin at the bar.Some of our drinks were the Old Fashioned, Brown Butter Old Fashioned and apps included the Meat & Cheese Board and the Pimento Cheese.Everything was great and Martin did a fantastic job taking care of us.He was also nice enough to put the SEC Championship football game GA v TX on for us on several of the bar TV's.On Sunday morning my wife and I had breakfast.I had the Biscuits and Gravy with a Housemade Bloody Mary and my wife had the Veggie Omelette. Everything was delicious.

A good spot for a date. Overall 4/5. Their appetizers are delicious. The menu needs to be more special since the items are too generic currently.

Dev was our server. Very personable.The Salmon was really good. One of the better ones that I have had in ages. The restaurant was nice and quiet, but a group of 8 were seated next to us and they were quite loud. But it is a restaurant in a hotel.The only complaint I have, is we had a hard time finding the restaurant. It only had a sign on the side of the building, and google maps only brought me to the shopping center. We drove around until we finally spotted the sign.

33 Staves is an unexpected find in the Origin Hotel at Fritz Farm! The food is fresh, creative and delicious. The staff is friendly and accommodating, and the vibe here is super clean and very instagrammable. Definitely a place to add to your local list!*While this review is for brunch, a previous visit to the bar resulted in one of the best oldFashioneds I've had in Lex!

Attached to the Origins Hotel in Lexington, this is an open space restaurant that also has an intimate feel to it. Perfect for great conversation as the acoustics are quite good with plenty of sound absorbing surfaces - so I can't imagine that it would get "too loud" here.A variety of selections on the food menu with many selections and small plates for sharing, as well as entrees that are sure to satisfy. Take a look at the menu photos I've posted.I'm here for a fundraising scholarship event, and it is such an inviting place that I would certainly consider returning even to dine, even if not staying at the hotel.

I came here twice for breakfast during my trip. Breakfast during the week didn't seem too crowded and the server let me know I could have a seat wherever. I loved the aesthetics of the bar/restaurant. Wood paneling, rustic, yet modern.Be warned they don't have a huge breakfast menu, but you'll surely be able to find something if you're a breakfast fan. After looking over the menu I opted to get an egg sandwich, with an extra side of their house sauce. The sandwich came with home fries. I asked for a latte, but their machine was broke, so I got a regular coffee.The coffee was good. I tend to like a latte better, but I was really after some caffeine, so it did the trick.My egg sandwich came out later. It was beautifully prepared, with the egg, cheese, and crispy bacon. The Texas toast was buttered and toasted to perfection. The house sauce enhanced the flavor. Each bite was better than the next. The home fries were fried perfectly and tasted great.I liked the sandwich so much, I came back twice and got the same meal!

Gorgeous space - modern with a touch of Kentucky/bluegrass. Maybe a little too brightly lit. The bartender was friendly - would like to see a little more creativity in the cocktail menu. Food was ok but not great. First order of fries was excellent. Second order was soggy. Main dish was fine but nothing to write home about. From reading other reviews, seems like there is quite a bit of variance in food quality based on who is in the kitchen that day. Not awful for a hotel restaurant but could be better. Will give it another try in the next few months.

Horrific experience.. made brunch reservations for Mother's Day and was greeted with such indifference if not contempt for being there. Server was clearly tired or at the end of the shift but come on, as someone who's served before--it's holiday for women who are often tired and looking after others. Food was .. not good. Salty or cooked strangely. Do not recommend at all.

My wife and I stopped here on our way back home from Lexington. When we first arrived dinner wasn't open yet, so we got a drink to start. I got the brown butter old fashioned, which was great! Then once dinner started at 5pm, I got the confit duck and waffles. It was my first time trying duck, but it was really good! My wife got the pork shank with Brussel sprouts and Mac n cheese. All of which were great. If you like Brussel sprouts I highly recommend them as they were roasted to perfection with almost Brussel sprout chips peeling off of them. Eric was out waiter/bartender and he did a great job. He was very attentive and knew what was best. I highly recommend giving this place a try, the food was all exceptional. We will definitely be back.

We went for brunch on Saturday and the service was terrible. Menu had lattes listed, waitress was very quick to say they don't make those there. She never offered to refill our drinks. She came and cleared the table and vanished. I sat there for 10 mins waiting her to decide to come back with the check. They were not busy, restaurant was practically empty. We got there around 10 am and they seemed like they were not interested in serving people brunch and wanted to get set up for dinner. Brunch schedule was until 12 pm. Food was delicious, I had the trifecta sandwich with potatoes.
