    Acorn squash appetizer
    David G.

    To be honest, I wasn't expecting much. I've been to Bella Notte a few times and it has been so-so. But we had a gift card and wanted to try it this place. Boy was I wrong. Bella Cafe, from the service to the appetizer to the meal, was top top. The acorn quash was phenomenal and unique; the chicken, while slightly overdone for my taste, was crispy and flavorful; and the Brussels sprouts were some of the best I've ever had. The interior has the feeling of being a little cramped, but who cares? We ate outside on a beautiful day. To say I was pleasantly surprised by the place is an understatement. I strongly recommend.

    Too small, too noisy, service very slow. I was there with 8 friends, no one will return, but they have plenty of business without us.

    Awesome place; you enter through a greenhouse area and kind of follow the trail, sometimes stopping…read moreand wondering " is this a cafe" "maybe we are in wrong area " Another couple behind us said to keep on moving to the back, keep on going and voila this beautiful forest area opens up with tons of tables all randomly placed for dining. There is the ordering line and just a headed up they don't serve meat products. All dishes are vegetarian. You get to select 2 from the list for a meal ( as they are smaller portions ). They have some great dishes and savory tastes. They have beer and wines available; nice selection but not abundant- but when you have good selection in the first place you only need a smaller list. The hummus appetizer is awesome and great with the focaccia bread but I'd get at least a double portion bread right away. The porter was very good! If you're in Lexington stop here for the experience and some good food and drink!

    Atmosphere 10/10. Everything else is MID! The line stays incredibly long and I was surprised to see…read morethat as they ran out of items and wiped them off the board, they didn't replace those items with anything else but still continued to serve a VERY LIMITED menu. The food was okay. Nothing to write home about. Especially for the hype and the line you wait in. Service is okay, kind of friendly and was incredibly slow to get food out. After waiting for 20-25 minutes we stood by the kitchen window to wait for our food to come up, we overheard people coming to pick up food and being told they were out of items they ordered and to choose something else... from the already VERY LIMITED menu. I was struck that they were allowing orders to go through for items they didn't have.. Anyways, the couscous salad was great. The lox and kohlrabi salad was mid with soggy bread. The pretzel was decent. Seating in the garden was viby - I'm assuming this is why everyone hypes this place up. Overall very pretentious. Walking around the greenhouse and seeing the plant prices is LAUGHABLE. As a gardener, these prices are insane and you can certainly find great plants at a much better price elsewhere. Again, pretentious. I've experienced their garden seating so I don't think I need to go back when visiting Lexington.

    Have eaten here a handful of times the past couple weeks and the selections are either hit or miss…read more Before I tell you what decent items to get, let me get the not so good items out of the way. First off, do not get the sliced pizza! It tastes like the cardboard that it comes in. Secondly, do not get the nachos! I knew from the moment that they offered fried rice to go along with beans, ground beef, sour cream, white cheese sauce, salsa, and guacamole that something was not right! The ground beef had no flavor whatsoever, like all they did was cooked it and did not bother to season it. The only things that had any flavor was the sour cream and beans. Now where the nachos are located they usually have different items everyday at station. The pizza is always at the same spot. They have other stations like a deli and salad area but I have yet to get items from there so I can't say anything about it. As for the good stuff, the one location they have has cheese burgers, grilled chicken burgers, hot dogs, fish sandwiches, and chicken tenders. Some of their notable sides are mac n cheese, onion rings, sweet potato fries, and regular fries. This spot is my go to if the other stations don't look appealing. The grilled chicken they use for the sandwich is actually a decent size and not dry at all. The onion rings are crispy and not as greasy as you think it would be. As for service, you tell them what you want and they put it in a container for you and you pay on the way out. Plenty of tables and chairs for you sit down and enjoy your food. As for the location, this place is a little bit of an adventure to find. As you come in through the main entrance, there are really no signs telling you where this place is. So as you come in through the main entrance, go to your right and you can either take the stairs or the elevator to the second floor. There you will see the "Cafe Central" sign. As for the hours I have posted a pic so you can refer to it. Hours are a bit weird so make sure you take a look at it before making your way. They also have a Cafe North which is on the first floor but is a smaller version in which they have hot foods as well. Yelp 2022 Review #24 875 overall

    This is the main cafe inside of Baptist Hospital. All of the doctors and nurses eat here, but it…read moreseems somewhat hidden to visitors. It's not in a main area of the hospital, it's actually on the second floor and unless you're specifically searching for it, you're probably never going to run into it. My beloved aunt used to be a nurse at Baptist Hospital, so she filled my dad in on this hidden gem. Hopefully I just ate my last meal here. No offense to the cafe or the hospital, but I just don't want to be here. Today, Dad and I just ate breakfast here for the second morning in a row. He raved about the under priced biscuits and gravy at breakfast. The first morning, I wasn't hungry but I did try a few tater tots and they were great. The Heinz ketchup was an excellent compliment. They have the modern pumps of ketchup, mustard and barbecue sauce, all Heinz brand. This morning I got the premade tuna sandwich. One of the ladies behind the counter scalded the grill master for allowing me the purchase it though, so stick to breakfast food, don't be difficult like me. For dinner I had a hotdog and fries from the grill area. I really wanting chicken tenders but they were prepared and sitting under the warmer. The burgers were the same, I noticed them on the back grill sort of off to the side, already grilled but waiting to be warmed. Dad ordered a burger and it was warmed on the grill and served quickly, the grill master has the quickness thing down to an art. Overall, I think everything and the extensive choice excel for hospital food. Impressive.
