The Lexington Social

It has been well over 1 hr and I still have not received my food. I called the restaurant to check- the man who answered was extremely rude- said all the orders have been sent out for delivery 20 minutes ago- did not want to check my specific order. Very poor customer service. If he was the owner, I definitely do not want to support his business further. I hope I get some food. Very hungry!

Horrible. Greasy, overdone. Avoid.

The rich and flavorful tapas from Lexington Social is perhaps inspired by a region a bit closer to the Italian border than most, as it borrows heavily (and well) from Italian cuisine. Started with the Guideas. Fried artichokes with chipotle mayo. Batter-free, non-oily, nice combination of chewy and crispy. Hit the choppers with a toothpick and soldiered on. Next came the Malfatis, spinach and ricotta dumplings in herbed butter. Homey and old world tasty, but the star of this show is the liquid gold in which the dumplings are doing the back stroke. I spilled some on my shirt, and was far more concerned about the loss of the butter than the loss of the shirt. I’m not much of a bread and butter girl, and even less a dunker, but I used the firm peasant bread accompanying my order to do just that. Then came the pumpkin soup – creamy yet light, cool and citrus-y yet warm with spice. You’ll want more. Like, a tub full. This was followed by the Albondigas, firm, flavorful, not-so-mini meatballs in a wine sauce with currants and pine nuts. Hearty and beefy and fun to play guess-that-spice with. Then the show-stopper. The Datiles. Plump, sweet dates filled with creamy goat cheese and wrapped in smoky pancetta. This pig candy is nothing short of amazing. Gotta thank Seamless for this discovery. I expect to have trouble sleeping tonight, knowing the caliber of leftovers in my fridge. That, and I still smell like herbed butter. Delivery was prompt and polite, with extra points for packaging (no styrofoam, no staples).

Tasty food, but small portions and kind of expensive given the size of the portions. Wish there as a bit more variety too. They don't skimp on the richness though, the sage butter on their malfatis is amazing.
