I really wanted to love this place, unfortunately, it was one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. The waitress came to take my order and just as I was telling her my order the person I presumed to be the manager came over interrupted me and told the waitress to take an order from a different table instead. The waitress promptly ignored me and left to go to another table. Not a word was said to me not an apology not oh my gosh I'm sorry we missed a table, nothing. Okay, fine, I see they're busy and the waitress was quite young. She came back and took my order; A simple bacon and cheese omelette. 48 minutes later I got my omelet. Since I could not stay much longer I asked her for a to go box and also an orange juice to go. She went to the register and continue to do something else on the register while I continue to eat some more bites and wait for my orange juice and to go box. Upon the fourth bite into my omelette I found it to be completely raw on the inside. Not just undercooked, completely raw egg in the center of the omelette. I did not have time for them to remake the omelette I had already been there for over an hour. I informed the waitress and she went to get a manager. The waitress came back said the manager had no time to speak with me because they were too busy. I told her that's fine I didn't need to speak to the manager I just needed to leave and she still charged me for a meal I could not even eat because it was completely raw inside. I told the waitress I wouldn't typically pay for a meal that I could not even eat because it was raw on the inside and would have been a detriment to my health had I eaten a raw egg omelette but I was in no mood to cause a scene. And she said well I did take 20% off your bill. I still ended up paying more than I should have because she charged me for the orange juice that she never brought me. I asked her to have the manager review the situation when she had a moment that I should receive a full refund for my uncooked meal. I've yet to...
Read moreThe family and I staycationed in Lexington this weekend, and hung out to watch their Memorial Day Parade. Afterwards we headed straight to the Huron Street Cafe, as I wanted to give them a try before we left. I'm very glad that we did. Even with the weekend event we were seated right away. Our hostess did give immediate notice that there was a 30 min wait for orders from the kitchen, but that was fine with us since we weren't in any rush. The menu was simple with classic diner breakfast options, and the restaurant itself had a great charm. I was actually surprised at how comfortable their "wicker" chairs were, and everything was bright and clean. The staff was great too! Even with there being a rush, they handled everything with grace, humor and kindness. For sure a team working together to keep things running smoothly. When placing my order I quickly brought up my food allergies/intolerances, as I have quite a few. I was aware that they could not 100% guarantee no cross contamination, as one severe sensitivity of mine is wheat, but after choosing my safest option (The Huron Street Special), they promised to be as safe a possible. I'm happy to say that I left without having any food reactions, neither then, nor delayed onset. So big thank you to them for that! The food was served in large portions and was absolutely delicious. The pancakes are huge and fluffy, and I rather enjoyed the home fries. I would say they are fair and moderately priced. I will definitely be returning in our next...
Read moreWe are locals to Lexington and just discovered the Huron Street Cafe last week and have already been back 3x! That's how good it is!
We ordered the regular Eggs Benedict and the Perfect Storm the first time for breakfast, the southwestern egg rolls, kickin' thai shrimp and tater tachos the second time for lunch, and the Eggs Benedict on crab cakes and biscuits and gravy the most recent visit for breakfast.
First of all, the service is impeccable! Every time we've visited, it was a full house, but we were always immediately greeted by Anastasia, the bubbly and vibrant hostess who quickly seated us. The waitresses are also so thoughtful and friendly, giving this cafe the perfect ambiance!
Everything we ordered was delicious! The eggs were cooked to perfection - not too runny or firm, the shrimp was tangy and crunchy, the eggs rolls were very unique with some spice in the dipping sauce, and the tachos were absolutely amazing with the perfect amount of crunch and sauce! My husband ordered the biscuits and gravy and the Perfect Storm and he only let me take a tiny bite because he loved them so much! He said it was the best Biscuits and Gravy he's ever had!
The location is easily accessible from main street with its own private parking!
We love that this cafe is oozing with delightful small-town vibes and so happy with the large variety and yummy taste!
We will be back soon to try more epic dishes! Thank you Huron Street Cafe for your top-notch service and...
