Great find in a cute neighborhood of Lexington We stopped on our way from Lexington’s Bluegrass Airport to C. W. Pepper’s distillery. Friendly wait staff and delicious food in a quant setting. They do serve alcohol.

Conveniently located near our Airbnb, we stumbled upon this charming eatery. I decided to go for a chorizo burrito and treated myself to a slice of lemon icebox pie. Both choices turned out to be delightful and delicious.

This was my third visit to Stella’s. I always get their pick 3 (always pancakes + @). I was alone during their busy hour and had to get a table all to myself but didn’t feel like I was less welcomed or so. Good local ingredients and very cozy environment – I highly recommend this place!

Went for burger week, and the hot brown burger was the best burger I have ever eaten! The Mary Porter pie for dessert was delicious!

Cute and cozy. The service was great and the food was just amazing. We are from out of town we got the hot brown which blew my mind and mouth. We tried burgoo and it was so good we wished we had ordered more. Definitely worth it.

After seeing previous reviews, I was excited to try this place but was disappointed in the service. It was slow, took about 40 minutes to get our food when there were only 5 tables occupied, and our server was not attentive at all. The food was decent but nothing special at all. I don’t like the automatic 20% gratuity as our server didn’t deserve that much. Won’t be coming back.

RUN to try this place. Vegan/vegetarian options are stellar. Lentil soup is outstanding, properly seasoned and brimming with carrots and onions and herbs. The TLT, tofu, lettuce and tomato, is genuinely fresh and delicious. The star of this sandwich, the tomato, absolutely delivered as anticipated – perfectly firm, ripe, and fully flavorful. The different tastes blend well and the vegan cheddar and mayo/dressing are a home run with the tofu. The side order of kale lit me up. It has quite a peppery bite, jalapeños? It was sweet and tasty with real, lingering heat. Although quite delicious, a little above my threshold. I may try to push through. Lol. The coffee is rich and bold. On top of that, the service was very friendly, and she was very knowledgeable about the place and its history. This Old House has had many purposes and was built in the late 1800s with quite beautiful architecture. I would definitely go out of my way to come back here again. Highly recommended!!! ❤
