    Luke did an excellent job of seeing us. The food was great. Appreciated the watchful eye of the MOD checking on every table and asking how our food was shortly after it was delivered. There were a lot of larger holiday parties going on and every spot in the parking lot was taken. My only negative comment has nothing to do with the Carson’s staff. Because it was snowing, I walked to the far lot to get my car and drove up to the front entrance to pick up my 2 waiting guests. We sat there for over 6 minutes waiting for a truck in one lane and a car in our lane to pull out so we could leave. After 6 minutes of waiting patiently, I had to put the car in reverse to leave. The other vehicles were still blocking traffic when we left. They were apparently waiting for their guests to come outside. It would have been nice if one of them would have drove out and back around to the entrance in consideration of others. It seemed like they thought they were the only ones there and had all night to wait and block the exit. We love Carson’s!

    Excellent. Glad we decided to go to Tony’s Lexington before UK game. Bread was great. Beet salad was tasty. Steaks (filets) tender, flavorful, and cook as ordered. Mac and cheese yummy. Service was paced just right. Managers stopped by twice to make sure everything was good. Very positive experience.

    Great service. Very large salads. Sushi was interesting. Ruby roll had steak and lobster in it which we’ve never seen. The chili rub accompaniment “sauce” for the steak was a new one too and excellent.
