Fun cultural experience. My friends and I shared our drinks and appetizers. Had a good time chatting with the owners and other patrons as well. They do have “rules” written on a board which serve as a guide to pairing your food and drink, which are pretty simple. I suggest grabbing dinner somewhere else first. The appetizers are small, but interesting! They also have a nice outdoor garden with high top tables, which was really enjoyable on a breezy summer night.
If I could give standing room only six stars I would. This was hands down the best experience I had while visiting Lexington. I was around for about a week and tried many different places for lunch and dinner and after drinks. I was so delighted when my last night in town we checked out this place. I couldn't really pick just one thing on the menu, which there is only one printed menu for people to share, so I tried everything. Just when I thought it couldn't get better then what I was having the next round would hit me. Their sake selections are excellent, but I wish they sold the bottle instead of just by the glass. I can't describe to you all how incredible this place is if you like talking to strangers, being around new cultures, and tasting small portions of decadent food.
There’s no other place in Lex like SRO - it’s a traditional Japanese izakaya with a focus on (unique) drinks and snack-size food. The food is amazing and simple - we ordered one of everything off the menu - and service is great.
