I cannot express enough how perfect our night was dining in at Emilio’s. Everything was as absolutely phenomenal. I knew straight away that my diet was going straight out the window for tonight. From the moment we walked in the door; greeted by the lovely hostess we were completely enamored by the elegant and classic decor of the restaurant. We were sat at the most lovely table in view of the electric fireplace and watching the snow blow by while we enjoyed our divine appetizer of chili crisp calamari which was cooked to utter perfection. The wine recommendation from our server was perfect for what I was wanting, I swear she was reading my mind. Not to mention the BEST table side prepared Caesar salad I have ever had the pleasure of eating. My steak was cooked exactly how I like with a beautiful char around the edges and perfectly salted. And the chocolate cake was just what we needed to end this beautiful date night. There was plenty of cake to take home and share with the kids after a much needed night to ourselves. Thank you so much!

One of the best experiences overall at a restaurant I’ve had in a long time. Service was great and the food was amazing. The steak was better than London Chophouse.

For anyone looking for an upscale dining experience and break from regular restaurants, without driving into the city.
I’ve been golfing at Lakeview GC for several years and overlooked Emilio’s Steakhouse, as it’s been more than a year since they’ve upgraded. Atmosphere is inviting and provides diners’ privacy with views of the golf course and parking lot lol ( not so nice ). The menu provides an alternative from bar food and were pleasantly surprised with complimentary sorbet before our entree. We ordered Boguerones (appetizer) with mild tasting anchovies . Our two mains, braised short ribs and pan-fried halibut were served piping hot and everything was cooked perfectly.
Leave room for desserts cause they’re pretty tasty, at least the key lime pie!
Service provided by Ronda, who was attentive and friendly but not intrusive. We’ll return and will check out their upcoming theme nights. Emilio’s is a “diamond in the rough” ( pun intended) and worth checking out

We had a wonderful dinner of filet & porterhouse steaks. They had several gluten free options available. Just ask your server for guidance. Service was very good and the atmosphere very relaxing.
And the cremebrule was delicious.

The Beef Wellington was so tender and delicious. The pan seared scallops were very good. Tim the server was very courteous and attentive. Great experience!

The food and atmosphere was fantastic. Think Ruth’s Chris in terms of food quality/cost. I had the Beef Wellington and it was same level as a Gordon Ramsay restaurant. Everyone in our party loved it.

I should start by saying, my only experience was for their Thanksgiving buffet at 40 per… was not remotely impressed…. the food was less than average, and cold. The service was decent, but beyond that, not much good to report

Lexington does have choices for going out for dinner, but Lakeview Hills San Marino Lounge is one of those restaurants I would avoid. The service there is absolutly terrible. I am not talking about the wait staff. I was there last night and had to wait almost 1 1/2 hours before I said I had enough. I heard another table next to us ordered the all you can eat (ocean pearch) and asked for more fish and it was never delivered to them. This type of wait time is unacceptable and I truly believe was done on purpose. Perhaps to purchase more drinks. After an hour of waiting I asked for bread and butter and was willing to pay for it but was turned down because it was only for customers who ordered the all you can eat ocean perch. This restaurant is very rude to its customers and to its own waitstaff. They should never put their waitstaff is positions like this. Then the audacity to tell us we need to pay for our drink order. They never tried to satisfy their customer. The arrogance is overwhelming. This restaurant should be avoided until management decides customers are important. Again, there are other choices in Lexington and surrounding towns.

This review is about their San Marino Lounge in the same facility, where you can also order off Emilio’s menu. We are regulars at the San Marino Lounge. It is indisputably the best food around Lexington. Nuff said.
