Making the right menu choices at Casanova results in a true taste of Italy
Italian cuisine is so interwoven with the American palate that no one, including me, thinks a chef must be from Italy to turn out great Italian food. Nevertheless, there is something to be said for growing up within a country's culinary aesthetic: familiarity, sensibility, a feeling for the history...

The real standouts at Sarah Mediterranean Grill are appetizers, dessert
When it comes to corridors of ethnic dining, South Limestone near the University of Kentucky has an abundance of riches. Asian, Indian, Latin American, African, you name it. And now, since the opening of Sarah Mediterranean Grill, there are two Mediterranean (often code for Middle Eastern) spots...

Taqueria Las Huastecas: Mexican eatery on Winchester Road is as authentic and as good as it gets
Places to get authentic Mexican fare are scattered around Lexington like tumbleweeds. You never know where you will encounter the real thing. Among the relatively surprising locations is Winchester Road, given more to the pleasures of nightlife than dining. Yet the street has a small stretch...

Eating at First Watch is a good way to start day
First Watch — a chain of "daytime cafés" that serve breakfast, brunch and lunch — recently entered the Lexington market. It was born in California in 1983 but is now headquartered in Bradenton, Fla. Presumably the sunny climes of both home bases have sealed a commitment to the...

Parlay Social is a good bet for pub fare
It's open-mike night at Parlay Social, an eclectic and fun venue. Even though I love the house cocktail — a refreshing, even elegant, quaff of pink grapefruit-flavored vodka and bubbly — beer and wine seem more in the "getting down" spirit of things this evening. I order a Malbec.

Vue needs to decide whether it really wants to be a good restaurant
If you ask whether Vue, the new place atop the Chase Bank tower downtown, is a room with a view, the answer, providing you sit on the perimeter, is a definite yes. If you ask whether it's a lounge, I would say probably say yes again, judging by the clientele drifting out of the elevator and toward...

Lexington's Sabío restaurant gets its groove back
I have watched Sabío get its groove, falter momentarily and then rebound. Its opening weeks were great, with spot-on service and delicious salads. Late spring and early summer brought a couple of disappointing visits when the gnocchi were gummy and the wait staff annoyingly attentive. But...
