Bbm - Lexington

Absolutely amazing signature old-fashioned! Great conversation with the bartender too! Food: 5/5

Bigg Blue Martini is a staple to Lexington. This lounge restaurant/bar feels like it is in the heart of downtown near various event centers and intriguing sites. The clear glass walls that surround the seating area and bar give customers an exciting view of Lexington and allow a reflect a positive, classy environment to dine or enjoy a drink. There is a spectacularly long list of bourbons to try if you are looking for a taste of Kentucky. The bartenders and chef's are skilled at their craft and provide wonderful customer service (as BBM is part of the Hilton hotel). I enjoy the food so much I even have more than one favorite dish on the menu, including desserts.In addition, I was an employee at BBM Hilton these last two summers while I was staying in Lexington and have never worked at a better restaurant I felt I needed to write a supportive review! The head manager, Megan, cared so much to train me to become the best lounge bartender I could. I feel grateful for having such a pleasant experience here. It was very fun meeting guests visiting Lexington and working with such nice people! Even large events were a blast to work. Without a doubt I have taken more than a salary from BBM at Hilton. I have gained skills in a food industry with higher expectations, customer satisfaction, integrity, and knowledge in food and beverage. There is a lot to offer here.

If you like mediocre food at a high price with horrible service, this is the place for you!! And, I was so disappointed that they only had ONE martini on their drink menu. I asked if they had a separate martini menu and the waiter said “no.” And that was that.

I've been coming here for years for events in Lexington. Don't think I've ever been let down by the quality, but you can rack up a large bill quick! Hey, that's martinis! Yolo and always get 1 (or 3)

Carissa is one of those rare individuals that makes an impression on her guests. She remembered our drink of choice and our name after one night in the bar. We returned to BBM simply because of Carissa.
