TONS OF LOCAL FAVORITES
I've lived in a lot of larger cities, so while the variety of dining options in Lexington is not as high as in other larger metropolitan cities, it is still an excellent place to try local and unique places. Fun fact: Lexington has more new and existing restaurants per capita than any other city, due to the economic diversity of the population and large student demographic.
PLACES TO DEFINITELY CHECK OUT:
1. PAZZO'S: Best place for amazing pizza, student discounts, drink (beer) discounts. It's open late, right near campus, and always packed with students, so it's a great place to socialize and get great food.
2. CANE'S: Chicken. That's it. Once you've tried the Cane's sauce you'll know why it's an obsession.
3. TOLLY HO: Every student that has ever attended UK has been to Tolly Ho at least once. Hole-in-the-wall diner that's been around FOREVER, is open super late (everyone goes there after going out to the bars) and has the best food for late night/super early.
4. JALAPENOS: Great Mexican food, awesome service
There are tons more, but these are some near-campus highlights.
