I was already not in the mood for anymore drinking after spending a weekend in a major tournament in Lynchburg. Anyways, for a Saturday evening, this place was pretty packed both inside and outside. We both ended up getting a flight of beers each and every one was great. The food surprised me as my fish tacos was super fresh. The chips and queso was also great. Overall, a must see - especially for the view of the mountains if you decided to eat outdoors.

Everyone was very happy with the food. I would absolutely recommend

The added chicken to my salad and the salmon added to the bowl were healthy portions which added to the meal and experience. I would definitely come back.

I wanted to get the skirt steak and fries, but unfortunately that wasn't an option online. I opt'd for the burger, as did my boyfriend, both of our burgers came out with the wrong toppings. Oh well, we ate them and they were fine. Seems like a typical, frozen burger patty. The french fries were very greasy. We also sat outside here for a drink at one point. They have a very cute patio in the back of the restaurant. I got the Lex vegas, it was thick because of the puree. I didn't think about that, it wasn't as refreshing as I thought it would have been. I really didn't have too much interaction with the staff as we just ordered a drink and then online pickup but everyone seems nice and helpful.

We ended up purchasing a bottle of Malbec (after telling the lady working there that I liked wines like Merlot, and she recommended this -- great rec!), along with cheddar cheese and salami, which served as great snacks! I truly enjoyed the Malbec, especially accompanied with the steak dinner I had that evening. Service here is great and they have a vast array of wine selections! They have 3 different rooms just filled with wine from wall to wall. I would absolutely return again whenever I visit Lexington again in the future. Highly recommend!

We were asked if we had a reservation even though the entire restaurant was empty... um what? They said they could "fit us in." Ok... . We sat down in a very run down dining room and almost left when we saw the menu. Short ribs with rice? Some odd choices on there. I settled with the shrimp and grits. How bad could it be? Their beer bread is actually pretty tasty - it's kinda sweet and soft with a crunchy crust. But, our entrees were quite unappetizing and not good. My shrimp were pale and covered in a weird cream sauce with mushrooms and tomatoes. The grits were stiff with hardly any flavor. I had some shrimp shells on my plate too. My husband's Gumbo was just as sad. It looked like cafeteria food. His okra was soggy and flavorless and the rice was so over cooked. 4 stars??? Absolutely not!!! The only redeeming factor was the good service and friendly staff.

The chips were clearly fresh out of the fryer, perfectly crisp, and paired with a flavorful salsa that had a nice hint of heat. We both ordered the Speedy Gonzales, featuring a cheese enchilada, beef taco, and refried beans. As expected, everything was consistently good and exactly what we've come to enjoy from that dish. The restaurant itself has a great look and feel, making it an easy and enjoyable stop for lunch. We would certainly come back again if we're ever in the area

They had a lot of customers dining in and a few picking up takeaway orders. It didn't take very long for them to take our orders and to have it come out of the kitchen. They have a spacious dining area that is decorated very much on theme with Mexican-inspired decor and murals. It was cute. I ordered carnitas and a frozen mango margarita. We also ordered guacamole to share for the table. The carnitas plate was a filling portion and was quite flavorful. I quite enjoyed it. I was really disappointed with the frozen margarita; it tasted just like juice, and I was kind of looking forward to drinking a stronger margarita. We asked for a little bit more tequila to add to it, but it didn't help much. I think was balance was all out of wack. The guacamole we ordered also never made its way to our table, and we had to ask the cashier to confirm with our waiter that they need to take it off our bill because we never got it. Overall, we had an okay experience.

Four out of the five guests in our party were so excited about the Eggs Benedict with a Bernaise sauce instead of the more traditional hollandaise sauce. We loved the option of the crabcake over Florentine choices although I think all of us wish we had gotten the crabcake option after seeing it delivered to our table. The Bloody Mary's were absolutely to die for (not overdone, simple and easy to go thru a few during our breakfast) and I'll be back just for this combination again of the eggs Benedict with Bernaise and a Bloody Mary. The ambience of Heywoods was easy to enjoy. We had a lovely breakfast full of lots of laughter and never felt like we were disturbing others nor did anybody else seem to be disturbed or disrupted by the fun we were having at our table.

That was fine, but that was the only thing that was fine. Service was slow but okay, the menu was rather limited, and there were limitations to your orders. Want a salad? Fine, but no protein. Bread was only one per person. The steak was poor quality, and the "black garlic butter" was very reminiscent of movie theater butter. For popcorn. We only ate half of it. The restaurant was empty the entire time we were there, so I was disappointed to not get to sit in the main dining room. There was a piano player, which was a nice touch. We left disappointed and hungry, still. Ended up going to a diner down the road to finish the night.
