    Best cocktails and food in Lexington! We have never had a bad meal at OBC. Brunch and dinner are both amazing. They make the best amaretto sour I have ever had. You will not be disappointed!

    Talk about a memorable culinary experience with expert service! I had the mushroom risotto and my husband the shrimp and grits. A perfect portion of delicate flavors and hearty seafood. Our friends chose the halibut and were most pleased. We literally were tickled the meals were so delicious cooked perfectly. Had an expert coffee martini and the chocolate pistachio dessert to finalize this delectable meal. Cozy and warm atmosphere served by master waiter, Truman. An ideal outing to toast our friendship!

    Waiter knew the menu inside and out. He gave me a recommendation on the halibut and it did not disappoint. We don’t drink, and they had a nice selection of mocktails. Food was out quickly, prepared amazing and beautifully. We’ll be back.

    My wife, son, daughter-in-law and I enjoyed a delicious breakfast at OBC on a snowy Sunday morning. The roads weren't great, but we pushed through and were rewarded with fabulous food and delicious cocktails. Our server, Steven, was excellent. We ordered Creme Brulee French Toast, a breakfast burrito, a Belgian Waffle, and a full breakfast, (can't remember what that was called). No complaints! We hope to return the next time we are in the area.

    Family Valentine’s Dinner and so glad we chose OBC. The bacon in a glass was too cool. The bacon had turned lardy. The cocktails, rolls, salad and pork chop were amazing! Our server was sooooo attentive. I wish I had her name. The carrot cake was just ok. We’ll definitely visit again!
