    Went here for a late anniversary celebration had the most Amazing nachos followed up by perfectly seasoned jambalaya… had so much flavor. Steak was cooked perfectly. Last and definitely not least the bread pudding is amazing. Way more food than we could eat but glad we tried everything we did. We will definitely be going back!

    We come here often but our food came out luke warm however it tasted good. We should have sent it back for a remake but didn’t. We will next time because we normally have a great experience at Carson’s.

    If you're only in Lexington for a short time ,- this is the place to go. If you live here and haven't tried Carsons, you should go. Love this place, especially the food, it's great. Enjoy
