I’ve eaten here many times and every meal is amazing.
I have to tell a story about Willie's. This past weekend was the Inclusion Palooza, a community arts and music festival for families with special-needs children. Willie's not only donated a fantastic BBQ spread with all the trimmings for the performing artists, but Wilson Sebastian himself delivered the food himself. That's a man with a heart of gold who takes pride in his business and his community. I love this venue and the food.
It was okay but just barely. Music was too loud and there was annoying feedback from the sound system. We had some trouble getting the right salads but overall the food was good. There was miscommunication when we called ahead to reserve a table. One person told us to call an hour prior to arriving but when I called a second person said we couldn’t reserve a table. Willies has some work to do to get their act together.
The food and drinks were amazing and the service was great!
Visiting from out of town and was excited to try a Lexington hot spot. I was not let down the food was terrific and the service was totally what I expected EXCELLENT will definitely come back when I’m in town 👍👍
Smoked wings were delicious. Street tacos, ribs, and pulled pork also very good. Helping make life more enjoyable. I’ll be back! Service was great and loved the atmosphere. My teens were impressed as well!
Try the brisket street tacos ! They are Delicious
I love this place! Chicken wings are amazing and the Southland salad is delish! Occasionally the service is under par but mostly we've been very satisfied! The music shows are good too!
What a great place. We saw it on Burgers, Brews & Que and decided to make it a stop on our way to Florida from Michigan. Awesome food, great staff, incredible beer selection. We were there while they were doing free lunch for all the Kentucky teachers after the Governor hosed them with the new pension bill. As a teacher in Michigan this earned them 5 more stars in my eyes.
