We are regulars at Suggins and this feels similar with a more modern decor. The garage door provides a nice atmosphere. Lots of the same menu items. Smash burger was new and very good. Very attentive and friendly staff.

Just opened and they have great potential in the Hartland area. First time visit and we were the table that sits there for an hour waiting on our food while tables all around us, that came in after us, got their food and left before us.

Food was good. We will go back but we hope to have a better experience next time.

A solid 9/10! First time trying this place after a strong recommendation. I had the classic smash burger and onion rings, both were AMAZING! The house sauce on the burger was the crowning jewel on it. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful with placing my to go order. Even offered me a Diet Coke while I waited. From the moment I walked in I was greeted with a smile and a welcome in. I live just around the corner and glad I finally tried this awesome place. It’s now on my favorites list. These type of neighborhood restaurants are amazing to have.

I see this place being compared to AP Suggins & there’s honestly no comparison. This place wins hands down with better food, cost, atmosphere & service. The Pub Fries were seasoned soo good & delicious! The Hot Brown was also amazing. They also have great ranch which is a must for me. Most definitely will be returning many many times!

We decided to try this new spot in Lexington and were not disappointed. Everything was good, the portions were very generous, and the service was friendly!

I have a very mixed review of this place. We’ve been twice and noticed some consistent themes.

Staff & Atmosphere
The staff is phenomenal—friendly, attentive, and always welcoming. No complaints there at all. The interior could use a little fine-tuning; with nothing to absorb sound, it gets extremely loud inside.

Appetizers
This is where the kitchen really shines. The cheese fries are excellent—real shredded cheddar melted over the top, with real bacon (not bits). The beer cheese is slightly spicy and classic, no odd twists. The spinach artichoke dip with fried flour tortillas is fantastic. Onion rings are 10/10. Chicken tenders are excellent. Fried banana peppers were a surprising highlight. Overall, the appetizers are consistently great.

Entrees
This is where we struggled. The burger is advertised as a smash burger, but it isn’t—thick patties that eat more “steamed” than seared. They also default to two patties, which is a lot, and there’s no option for a single patty outside the kids’ menu. (Photo attached)

The smoked brisket sandwich (“Low and Slow”) was extremely disappointing. It arrived as an inch-thick slab of grey beef on a hoagie, with the fat cap intact and unrendered. The meat itself was very tough, without the tenderness you’d expect from properly smoked brisket. It felt less like a matter of preference and more like a preparation issue. Honestly, I was shocked they actually sent that out of their kitchen.

The Caesar salad was also underwhelming. The dressing leaned more vinaigrette than creamy Caesar, and while the components were correct, the flavor just didn’t land.

Suggestions
Since this is a neighborhood spot, we’d love to see the menu evolve a bit. A quesadilla seems like a natural fit given they already offer wraps. The tenders are excellent, so boneless wings with a few sauces would be great. Traditional wings would also fit well on game days. And with slider buns already in use, burger sliders—done in a true smashed style—could be a hit.

Overall
It’s an okay place. We’ll happily return for drinks and appetizers, but after two disappointing entrée experiences, we’re hesitant to branch further into the menu. We really hope they work out the kinks, because this could be a fantastic neighborhood hangout.

I’m pleasantly surprised with the service and food! There are many pescatarian and vegetarian options available as well! The blackened shrimp tacos and catfish fingers were delicious.

The atmosphere is a perfect blend of family friendly and sports bar, with a room divided er and tall booths separating the dining area from the bar/high top area.

The staff were very friendly and authentic as well. The restaurant was clean but not upright—which was the surprising part!

I love the garage doors opening up to the patio—it makes the space feel homey and neighborly.

Overall, this was a great experience! I JUST wish they had Ale-8 in a bottle!

J. B. Steele’s is an awesome addition to the Hartland Neighborhood! Service was quick, staff were all super friendly, and food was great! One point knocked for noise level. Sound bounces and carries in the space (which is gorgeous) so it’s a little hard to hear but not a dealbreaker. Can’t wait to go back!

*** follow up: they added material to the ceiling (a while back now) that eliminated the noise issue. One of my fav places to go watch UK games now!!

We went for an early dinner last week and it was “okay”. The interior is pretty and polished, but not all that exciting. It’s also super loud since they removed the ceiling. After a couple more tables filled up, we could barely hear each other. The food was good and I plan to try more of the menu, however, I hope they add some happy hour specials as my husband and I spent over $70 with no appetizer. I live in Hartland and was looking forward to a family friendly pub similar to the old Shamrocks, but this doesn’t hit the mark in my opinion.
