"Fantastic Brunch!"   My Rating
9 keillorand el	Posted on: Monday, November 09, 2009
	Review: This place is great for veg and non veg alike! The hoppin john and grilled cheese are legendary. I also adore the blueberry pancakes and their spanish omlette is incredible. All brunches come with a veg sausage option. There is usually a wait for brunch, but it is well worth it. Service is good and food is great! There is an art gallery next door to browse in while you wait and they offer free coffee on weekend mornings for those waiting. I have never had a bad meal here and I have been eating at this place for years. They don't offer it very often, but the blueberry sour cream pie is amazing. A truly wonderful local institution! Park in the library grarage. It is close and free on weekends.   Pros: great food * local * Cons: none * *

"Alfalfa's: Not at the races"   My Rating
3 GUEST	Posted on: Thursday, May 24, 2007
	Review: We've eaten at Alfalfa's twice and both times, found it to be over air-conditioned and over-priced. It had too few vegan options that warrant the price and the claim that Alfalfa's is "vegetarian friendly". Our requests for vegan options were met with confusion and the sense that we were inconviencing them. Veganized Hoppin John's platter, essentially just rice and beans, can be made at home for less money and less hassle.   Pros: * * Cons: * *

"if your vegan don't waste your time and money"   My Rating

	Review: I have given this 'vegetarian friendly' place too many chances. At first I was hoping to be impressed, the last time I visited I just wanted to eat something warm. The vegetarian options are limited and they act like vegan requests are unheard of. Service is poor, if even that. I was given one cup of coffee and my food was cold when served, but our server was at the counter fooling around with other servers. After 25 minutes I was asked if I wanted the check, NO COFFEE, NO ANYTHING ELSE... when I finally sent my food back it was put in the microwave. When ever I eat here I think I can make this at home and make it better... I also say this is the last time I come here and I am making sure I stick to that. There is better places in Lexington.   Pros: attractive decor * nice location * Cons: staff is horrible * vegan option limited * quality of food

"adding to mixed reviews"   My Rating

	Review: The service was not good. Given, it was an extremely busy sunday brunch(11 am) due to a race in town. The server came over and took our order in a reasonable amount of time, but never checked on us before or after the food came out. I watched the staff pass around a wall clock that had stopped working and each pondered how they could fix it while the restaurant was on a 40 minute wait. The reason why I point this out is that it sums up the level of focus that is put on customer service. If you go to this place go because there you want to eat not to dine.   Pros: semi veg rest. in KY * * Cons: poor serve * not many vegan options *
