Wow I can't believe I've been missing out on great food and friendly service. This was our first time eating at Winchell's and the food was great! Everything was very hot and delicious. My daughter and husband love the bread pudding which was a plus after a great meal. It was so much it was lunch and dinner. My daughter actually bought her first bar drink that day. Definitely will visit with more friends and family. Hats off to the cooks.

Fat Man Reviews

A late Sunday lunch brought Fat Man Reviews to Winchell's Restaurant & Bar in Lexington, KY. Winchell's is a family owned sports bar that offers standard pub grub and Southern favorites. The dishes are made fresh and sourced locally. We started with the Pork Quesadillas. This comes with pulled pork, pepper jack, cheddar cheese in grilled flour tortilla. It is also served with sour cream and BBQ sauce. The tortilla is grilled about perfect, both cheeses were melted amazingly, and the pork had a wonderful, slightly sweet flavor. I do not believe it is smoked, but it was great nonetheless. The one knock I will give this dish is that the BBQ sauce arrived hot and did not add to the dish. My fiancé tried the B.L.T. It comes with Apple wood bacon, lettuce tomato, on sourdough (white, wheat, rye also available), and fries. The bacon was think cut and cooked to a great crispy chewy bite, and the fries looked hand-cut and were fried pretty well. I have to say that the bread could have been toasted a bit longer, and the sandwich needed mayo. Other than that it was a really nice sandwich. I had the Chicken Livers dinner, with mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese and country gravy on both the livers and potatoes. The livers were breaded and fried perfectly, not chewy or tough and had a creaminess about them. The potatoes were mashed and seasoned well, with some solid pieces of potatoes as well. The gravy was interesting, as it was a sausage gravy. It worked well with both dishes. The macaroni was a huge let down. The noodles were over-cooked and the sauce was grainy and not edible. Winchell's Restaurant & Bar offers several appetizers, sandwiches, entrées and breakfast as well as a full bar. The service was good and they offer large portions. Winchell's Restaurant & Bar is Fat Man Approved.

This was my third time at Winchell's, and I finally remembered to get a shot of the food! This is the pulled pork entre and pulled pork enchilada. I am a huge fan of Winchell's take on coleslaw which features vinegar in place of mayo, if I'm not mistaken. Previously I had gotten shrimp and grits, my go-to dish. The servers have always been exceptional. Prices are very fair. If you like Lexington Diner of Ramsey's, Winchell's is a great next place to try.
