The toasted grilled cheese tea sandwich was charred and not only did they replace it after I had one of the sandwiches, they took off the charge entirely which I didn't even ask for. This restaurant cares about your experience and obviously desire a life long customer. Good job Davin, your service was well received! read less

The waitstaff were very friendly and willing to help with the menu items. The drinks and craft cocktails were very well prepared.

I would say this is more of a bar then restaurant and better to have drinks. The menu is good, but the items a wee bit expensive. That being said the food was very good.

Again the bar selection was impressive. They make their own bitters and the bar has a true mixologist. The drinks are delicious and unique. They were also very friendly in explaining the drinks and why they made them with the particular mixes to get the right tastes.

The seating area was clean and had a welcoming atmosphere. The booths were a bit uncomfortable, but that is to be expected with older seats. The bathrooms were individual and very clean.

Overall a nice night. read less

Perfect place for a date night out. Beautifully crafted cocktails and the filet mignon was melt in your mouth delicious. Even the bread and butter was amazing. My husband and I almost went back a second time the next day but got into town too late. read less

When you go, ask for Davin. The food was FIRE, and the menu rotates every 6 months. The drink menu was a literal picture book dedicating two pages to show you and explain the contents of each drink to you. It is not cheap, but it is not overpriced like so many fine dining experiences are. I mean, we hung out for hours and spent less than we expected for an incredible dining experience. I saw that to emphasize, that there's no reason for you to go try this. We will be back for absinthe classes and just to eat. Thank you, Davin and Jonathan! read less

There's absolutely nothing that we did not like about this place.The atmosphere is classy, yet very relaxing. They have the most amazing absinthe selection I have ever seen, truly world class. Their house gin and tonic is absolutely the best I have ever had, and that's saying a lot.The menu selections are few, but skillfully prepared and presented.You will not be disappointed here read less

Austin Shuck has a thorough knowledge of the cocktail menu and exquisite customer service. Great place to get a quality cocktail.

I can't elaborate enough where West Main Crafting Co. is one of those places that could charge $15-18 for their drinks in a city like Chicago, ATL, DC, or NYC, but rather you're looking at $10.50-$12 for gourmet crafted cocktails. I took advantage of this drink adventure and partook in 5 drinks plus dinner. Bill without tip was $99.11. Why am I pointing out the price? Well, it needs to be understood that this place is worth more than a damn for a date night, solo venture, or simply a night out with friends.Pre-pandemic, this place was gloating with reservations and a wait list for weeks. Now, you can walk in without an issue and you have the ability to partake in their offerings. I hope they get back to the point of lines and reservations for weeks since this place is more than deserving of it. I had the pleasure of having Christian and another wonderful woman take care of me. I had written her name down for the sake of the review, and I am hating myself that I cannot remember her name! She was amazing and my primary bartender. I was thoroughly impressed with presentation, offerings, and even they had a photo book and description of their cocktails. It was FANTASTIC! Additionally, West Main C.C. has the largest privately owned absinthe collection in the United States! Many of their cocktails are inspired by their absinthe offerings and should not go unnoticed. Another notable mention: their food menu! I had one of the best filet mignon and potatoes I have ever had in my life. Mouth watering, melt in your mouth, and perfectly delicious meal. I could easily have this regularly cooked by them if I could swing the $34 price tag! I swear though, it was so damn good. Soooo good.Between food, ambiance, drinks, and perfect service - you truly can't get any better than this. Plus, to think that this is in friggin' Lexington, Kentucky, completely blows my mind! Like, what? It's Kentucky, not Miami. I am still trying to wrap my head around that. Will I be back? Oh, you bet I will. It is only 3.5 hours from Nashville and it is worth all of the stars and hype. Hands down no questions asked, a perfect experience. read less

My friend and I were lucky to grab a table in this warm restaurant and have dinner. The interior is very inviting with warm woods and dim lighting... it had a speak easy feel to it. I had the Filet and she had a Bone in chop special. The menu is small, but packs a punch of flavor. The steak was beautiful and she enjoyed the special... We stayed for many hours and drank through the night on the couches. The service was impeccable and it's obvious what their doing in the age of COVID-19. I was sure to leave a large tip, super important at 33% capacity and their livelihoods depend on it. I'd recommend this beautiful place anytime and highly recommend the craft drinks. read less

Christian was our bartender and he was top notch. We asked him for his recommendations according to what we normally prefer and he delivered some amazing drinks! We both left saying that we couldn't wait to go back and how they were the best drinks we've ever had. I requested this place for my birthday this month and I'm excited to go back and try some desserts! read less

Lucky for us, they were able to make a cozy spot for us. Cool and friendly staff. They really made us feel welcome.We tucked into a few craft cocktails and the charcuterie and cheese plate. Very fresh, clean eating. We loved everything on the plate. If you are a wine drinker, order the Orchid Scout. You won't regret it. read less

Our server/bartender Christian was wonderful! My boyfriend and I came in late (we truly thought they were open until 3), and he was so kind! We will definitely be back and will tell all of our friends about our positive experience...WMC, do yourself a favor and hire more people with personalities like Christian! He made our venture in so thoroughly enjoyable by being such a superb conversationalist! read less
