the neighborhood menu was incredible! Some of the best food my husband and I have ever eaten! The staff was great, especially Tom at the bar who took the time to make personal recommendations and definitely got it spot on!

Affordable foodie food here. Cocktails not to be missed. Space is luxuriously open and light-filled. Service very good. Brunch was memorable. Highly recommended for dates and small groups.

If you're looking for a place that serves tiny Cosmos (5oz) for $18 and tacks on a 5% "kitchen appreciation fee" without approval, then this is the place for you. Food was good, but the poor service, small portions and unexpected fee outweighed it. Save your money and go somewhere else.

It was okay. The food was not that impressive (though the Maracuyá drink was good!). The steak and the burger had both a strong carbon taste, which was not good. The steak lacked salt.

The cocktails were unique and excellent. The food was delicious - try anything with the black garlic aioli. The steak seemed like it could've used some salting and the chocolate cake was more cream than cake, but everything else was top notch.

This has become one of our regular spots when we're in Cambridge. The food is great and the ambience is relaxed. We love it for a nice casual dinner or just appetizers and a glass of wine. The view of the park is really nice and the bar area is open and bright. It's worth trying a dessert here. You won't be disappointed.

In the land of seafood The Lexington has arguably the best calamari in Boston. Even our 3 year old liked it. The pork chop and steak frites were exquisite. Overall a really nice experience.

I went to Lexington for a birthday celebration with my friend. We tried almost all the cocktails available. Some of them were good, and the rest of them were pretty average. Food was average to subpar. Don't order steak; they deliver a well-done steak for my medium order. The behavior of the server was good. But she misguided us. Cocktail recommendations didn't deliver one of our orders but charged for it. Most importantly, there was no candle for the birthday celebration.

We loved our birthday celebration dinner at the Lexington! The service was attentive, food delicious, drinks awesome and the vibe was festive. Love the view! Cannot wait to go back.

My boyfriend and I came to Boston for the weekend & we absolutely loved our meal at the Lexington; the ricotta gnocchi & steak frites were amazing. Our waiter Louis was also fantastic. Great service. Loved the rooftop as well. 100% would come back again!

If you are looking for a low-key restaurant with a modern, hip vibe and recognizable, good food, this is your spot! Lexington has a yummy cocktail and mocktail list . Apps we enjoyed and recommend are the potato waffles with onion dip, brussel sprouts, and burrata with seasonal sweet potato. Their burgers and fish tacos also fresh and flavorful. We didn't get dessert because we were too full but our server said the pastry chef is one of the best in Boston. So a definite reason to return! Highly recommend!

Great food and atmosphere. I had steak on this occasion and pasta at the restaurant downstairs and both were great. My friends had the cod and I will try the fish next time. The staff was friendly and attentive! I recommend this great spot.

Food was good however our service was sub par. We didn't get our orders in until 20 min after sitting down. The restaurant was under staffed but I believe they could have done a better job of taking care of the tables.

A+ quality service. Limited entree options left a bit more to be desired in terms of flavor. Lobster bisque and Cobb salad tasted a bit flat but Cod was cooked to perfection. Beautiful space and would try again with different options
