My boyfriend and I went here for a steak dinner. I did the blackened ribeye and he did the cowboy cut. We ordered too many sides, and they were all so good, the Brussels sprouts in particular. The food was amazing and the service was wonderful.

We have visited Carson's many times. In fact we only live about half a mile from the new location at Andover, and although it's very nice we still prefer the downtown location. It just seems more intimate. The service was great and our server Hanna couldn't have been nicer and or have been any more helpful.

We enjoyed a warm and welcoming visit on this snowy night. I decided to have a light dinner of a salad and the white bean soup. A filling and delicious choice, plus I have lunch tomorrow from the leftovers! My husband enjoyed the chicken Parmesan, which you can order as a half or whole plate, great for personal choices! Since we were satiated, dessert had to come home for later! We are never disappointed at one of the best spots in Lexington!

The new menu items were fantastic. We were not in a steak mood tonight. My wife had the chicken, which was phenomenal. I had the Strozzapreti Pesto, which was excellent. Can’t wait to go back.
