Last Friday as an early birthday lunch Bryan took me to Saul Good Restaurant and Pub. I had dinned there a few years a go when it first opened and I was not very impressed with what I got and it has taken me a few years to try it again and boy am I glad I did! It was delish!
I'm all for second chances. I figure I gave Bryan a second chance and he turned out to be awesome the second time around so giving Saul Good a second chance was the least I could do. Plus their zebra pring awning is pretty cute. I love restaurants that are privately owned and not chains. There are only a few here Lexington compared to other larger cities. Saul Good is one of the few that aren't chains.
Their menu is quite unique for the Lexington, Kentucky palate. As I stated before Lexington is over-saturated with chain restaurants. I have nothing against chain restaurants. Carrabba's and Bonefish happen to be two of my favorite, but nothing can beat a great little privately-owned spot. Their menu is made up of an eclectic take on dishes, such as the southern chicken and waffles and Parisian pizza. You can find chocolate popcorn and fondue on their dessert menu. Their steak and beer cheese nachos are a must-try for my next visit.
We shared the Saul Meat pizza, Buffalo Chicken appetizer, and their yummy White chocolate cheesecake. The pizza was amazing. It had bits of pepperoni, sausage, tomato sauce on a thin crust. I am a HUGE buffalo anything fan. Put buffalo sauce on it and I will most likely devour it. So naturally we chose their buffalo chicken appetizer. I really enjoyed the taste of the sauce and it wasn't too hot so it could appeal to a palate that wasn't a fan of spicy hot foods. I pretty much let him chose the cheesecake. I figured I am not a big white chocolate fan so I would be safe with a bite or 2. I was wrong. It was so creamy and delicious that I think I ate more than he did.
All-in-all I was satisfied with our meal and will definitely return and very soon. I know a lot of people in the area have already been here, but if you haven't it's a place you should add to your list.
