    A stop in Lexington I came across LX BBQ. This is a newer spot that wasn't here the last time I passed through. A wonderful bark on the brisket. Nice and salty and peppery. Some bites a little over salty but overall with the bites of the fatty pieces it balanced out nicely. The slice of flat that I got was looking wonderful and had very meaty bite and still very moist. The ribs were a little softer but the honey rib glaze that was poured over at the end helped accentuate the sweetness of the actual pork. I got the slaw and looking at it. It looks exactly like what you get at KFC, but eating it. It had more of a tart bite as if it was using more of a sour cream base which helped balance out the overall fatty and salty flavors. I'm definitely a sucker for the flavor of sour cream. The highlight for me was the Biscoff cookie banana pudding. The custard had a very thick viscosity where I could totally flip it upside down in the container and nothing would fall out. As you can see in the picture when I took a spoon out, the custard itself was still able to maintain its actual shape. And they use the Biscoff cookies. So good. Maybe I fly Delta too much and eat too many of these things but they are some of my favorite cookies and having it in a banana pudding. . . Can't think of much better.

    My family and I had the best lunch experience at LX BBQ. I had the brisket sandwich with mac and cheese, and my husband ate brisket and smoked turkey. The service was quick, and all the gentlemen were so nice! Inside the restaurant, the ambiance was cozy and charming. I took a picture of the map because it shows where all the customers live! It took me a moment to realize it's a pig! Haha, how fun.

    Pulled pork sandwich with potato salad

    Now I understand why they won best in Lex this year. I've been wanting to visit for a while and finally went. Unfortunately they were out of everything but the pulled pork - I was looking to try the brisket. One of the owners was the one there and apologized and was so nice and helpful for what they had. He and his sister let me know they were a family business and talked some more while he got my order together. The location is small (limited parking) but amazing service, hospitality, and food. I ended up getting a pulled pork sandwich with potato salad. And it was delicious! The pulled pork was moist with great flavor and the potato salad was perfect! I can't wait to visit again (earlier) and try the brisket! Great little place!

    Brisket combo with smoked potato salad

    With so many raves I thought I'd try LX BB. I ordered the brisket sandwich combo with a sid of smokehouse potato salad. The brisket was good but there could have been more. I really liked the potato salad. A drink came with it. I grabbed a bottle of water. The guys were super friendly. BUT, the food didn't wow me, and for $21.93 it should have. 52

    I got the Dino Beef Rib for lunch and it was absolutely delicious! Very good taste, the fat melted in your mouth and it was good quality beef. It was $60 for the MASSIVE beef rib but it was really good!! I split it with my wife and daughter. I saw the pulled pork and brisket and knew it was delicious and juicy as well. I'll be trying that out when I stop back by!! Best BBQ around in my opinion. You pay for quality and they deliver!! Customer service was awesome and the atmosphere was great.

    Ate here on a visit to Lexington. Very pleased - the pulled pork had a smoky taste and was just the right amount of moist. Not only were the sauces on the table good, but they blended well together. Loved the homemade pickles too! Reasonable prices too (by 2025 standards). I don't know when I'll be back in Lexington, but Lx BBQ will definitely be on my list

    Nailed all the food! Brisket and Pulled Pork were amazing and so flavorful. Side hit it out of the park. Fried rice Brisket!! Service was so helpful with menu and portions. Truly BBQ vibe in the place with awesome plans to grow. Get to this place.

If you're not familiar with the Greyline Station, it's a former bus depot which has been transformed into a miniature mall of sorts, with numerous vendors located inside, and I had read a sign that they hold a Farmer's Market on Wednesday evenings from 5:00-7:00 pm. The facility has an accommodatingly large parking lot with plenty of spaces. Nowwwww, to the REAL reason for this review! Once I parked and exited my vehicle, I smelled the most amazing fried chicken, and immediately searched for the source of such an enticing aroma. As I walked towards the building, I saw two nice gentleman sitting outside of the building, near a sign that said Wing KYng, and AHA, SCORE, I found the source of the wonderful fried chicken aroma! Those two gentlemen happened to work in Wing KYng. I told them once I procured my one sought out item in the farmer's market inside the building, I would be returning to procure some of that chicken. Upon my return to Wing KYng, I began asking my typical questions: do they have anything gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free, and egg free? The staff member was very knowledgeable and advised me that the dry rubs were my best option. I have a myriad of food sensitivities, so I browsed the dry rub options available, and chose a 6 piece chicken wings with Lemon Pepper dry rub. O M Goodness!!Fabulous is the first word to come to mind! The skin was so delectably crunchy, the chicken was moist and tender, and the flavor was perfectly balanced! The cost was $12.00, which is a great price in my mind for the best fried chicken I've had in a good many years. Although I cannot speak to these items, they offer a wide variety of flavors, dips, and Parmesan coated home cut French fries as well. I witnessed one staff member actually cutting the potatoes for the French fries. Truly nice folks work here, and the chicken was phenomenal!!! I will be returning here for sure!

The staff was very friendly, knowledgeable, and great recommendations. I got the quarter chicken & churrasco steak, and a chicken empanadas (recommended). Everything was delicious and you really get way more that what you pay for! The steak was super tender - get a side of chimichurri with it! The empanada through me off - in a good way. It had chicken, olives, boiled eggs in it. At first I was confused but with the second bite I was hooked. Also the crust was buttery and has a perfect bite to it. I've never had anything like it before. I can't wait to try the beef empanada next time. If you want to try something new I would definitely try this place!

She took the time to bring out a roll, fresh baked cookie, make sure we had all the things we would need, and changed the TV to a children's show so my husband and I could enjoy a date even with our tag along. The food was outstanding! Tasted like it was straight from Latin/South America. Which obviously is a compliment coming from a Colombian and a gringa who loves her food with a Latin flair! Steak is medium with a nice char, and the chicken has a seasoning that is reminiscent of the Caribbean. Rice and beans are always a great combo and you absolutely cannot go wrong with the plantains! We had a chicken empanada which was cooked to perfection, my only regret is not trying the beef empanada as well! Go here. You won't regret it!

This KFC acts like YOU are the problem for daring to ask for fried chicken, and they, SHOCKING, don't have any. At a place literally called 'Kentucky Fried Chicken'!!! Every time we've asked, "Okay, what do you have then?", we get incorrect answers, attitude, or flat-out silence. We've been yelled at, cussed at, laughed at, IGNORED, and DENIED service more times than I can count!!! They almost NEVER have good chicken. Half the time they don't have crispy, sometimes they don't have original, sometimes they claim they have nothing at all, and when you ask politely what they do have, they get ANGRY at you and DEMAND you to tell them what you want! How the hell are we supposed to do that if you are out of almost everything we ask for?! I don't give 1‑star reviews lightly, I will 5‑star almost anything with a pulse... but this place? I'm not convinced anyone working here is fully awake, aware, or even sober!! You can SMELL the weed pouring out of the drive‑through window. Their eyes are wide, stunned, bloodshot... it's like being dragged into a dark hole vortex portal that throws you into indie horror movie universe. I have been desperate to find the corporate number to report these people and their atrocious impulse to yell back at a customer! Christ!! For years we've tried giving this location chance after chance. Different cars, different family members, different times of day.... they have the same rude behavior, give the same wrong orders, operate in the same chaos, so we KNOW they are not just singling us out. We've driven away empty‑handed many times because they either wouldn't respond or were completely incomprehensible!!! They've shorted us pieces of chicken, lied about what they have, and snapped at us for asking simple questions like whether we can order an 8 or 12 piece crispy meal. They get mad when you CLARIFY your order, even when they are the ones who repeated it wrong!! It's like they're offended by the idea of doing their job!! Like what the actual fuck?? Who the hell do these people think they are?!?! They are getting ANGRY at us because they tried saying "original" chicken back to us when we would clarify that 'no we said crispy, please'?! And they somehow thought it was their mighty-high-horse-right to yell at us that they don't have cripsy?!?!?! YELL at us!!! Like holy hell!! Why couldn't they clarify that they don't have cripsy when they asked us WHICH type of chicken we wanted for our basket AFTER they knew how many pieces we wanted?!?! It's like if a cynical person popped an entire bottle of bitch pills down their throats! When you pull up to the window and question the attitude, they act unhinged... flailing arms, constipated body language, and glaring like you're the one causing trouble!! It's honestly unsettling!!! Last night, we pulled up before 9pm, and the voice on the speaker sounded high out of his mind: "Uh, yeah?" We asked for an 8‑piece original meal. No answer. Minutes later: "...yeah, go ahead." We repeated the order clearly. Silence. When we asked if he was still there, he snickered and said "uh huh, go ahead," followed by coughing and what sounded like a muted headset. Meanwhile, employees were ducking behind walls, laughing, and hiding from cars. Oookay... McDonald's it is, then, I guess?! We don't go here often, but we've been here enough over the years to confidently say this isn't a one‑time issue. It's a pattern. And it's not just us, we CONSTANTLY see other customers frustrated, repeating their orders, being told to pull forward because something went wrong, or laughing nervously because the employees are so rude and unprofessional. This location has a great legacy in Kentucky, but the current staff does not care AT ALL. If it's late at night or anywhere near dinner time, good luck. The employees act like serving chicken is a personal insult to them. This place is absolute chaos, and it's honestly shocking it's allowed to operate like this. Absolute Trash.

Checked my bag to make sure everything was there. At the next stop light pulled the sandwich out and it was the spicy, not what I ordered. It had at least half a cup of the hot mayo sauce on it. It was wrong and a mess. My last trip to this location.
