This is my first time in Lexington. I stopped here for a work lunch. When I arrived, a long line had already formed, so I knew the food was going to be good. I ordered the Greeen chili Jack smoked Turkey sandwich. It was delicious. Unfortunately, I didn't get the full expirence evidently. I should have ordered an Ale 8. Im from NC, so I never heard of it. I will be trying it out on my next visit.

Since this is my first visit, if my daughter who lives in KY didn’t mention about this place we would have never know this place existed. It’s kind of tucked away in a strip mall, signage is not the greatest so you have to know where you are going. My veggie sandwich was great. The shop person went through the whole menu as this was our first visit. My family had various meat containing sandwiches and all of them were very happy with their choices. Amazing thing was that drinks were included in the sandwich. Their cheese dips looked interesting but I couldn’t bring it back to home, I didn’t get it. Maybe next time. I will definitely come back when I’m in the neighborhood.

Hidden within shopping entry hall lined with tables or choose outside picnic tables, this is finding your favorite deli in the back alley in NYC. Line pay and take a number to await your order. Sandwiches have their signature spreads, giving a burst of flavor depth with every bite. Photo shows the Rachel split with friend and Potato Soup. Also purchased Beer Cheese Roast Beef Sandwich to take home and a drink for around 24.00.

First time trying Dad’s. Absolutely phenomenal experience. Greeted as soon as I walked in, despite the busy atmosphere. I was given a rather in-depth rundown of the menu, and although they had already sold out of the specialty sandwich I’d planned on ordering, there was no doubt after the owner’s recommendation that I could pass on the Rushmore. My order was prepared quickly (again, despite the line being to the door) and the food met every last bit of my high expectations. I’ve heard this place was good, but wow! Especially good was the side of beer cheese for dipping. Subtle heat, and delicious creaminess that complimented my sandwich perfectly. 13/10. The extra 3 points is for the enthusiasm and overall energy of the staff. Also for the sample of beer cheese étouffée which makes me wonder: is Dad’s low key the best non-Cajun Cajun restaurant in Lexington? Don’t take my word for it. Try it yourself.

Went there after having huge pregnancy cravings for a hot sandwich. The customer service was incredible. Everyone was so friendly. The guy at the register helped me decide between two sandwiches. He asked if we were locals and gave us a stamp card. Which is good. I have a feeling I’ll become a regular for the duration of this pregnancy. The food was so good! My sandwich was perfect. I can’t wait to try the others. Such a great local staple. I highly recommend.

Went on a Friday afternoon. Special was bbq sandwich which was excellent. Also tried the blt and club. Very good. Also met and talked to Dad. He takes great pride in his food and using the very best ingredients. Don't let the strip mall influence your decision to go. There will be a line but it moves well. Don't miss this one.

I LOVE this place! Only recently found out about it by accident but I’m hooked. There’s always a line but it’s so worth it. All the employees are happy and pleasant! Dad is the best but even when he’s not here, like today, his sons step in! There is a difference when people who love what they do, make your food! I promise!!!

Worked in Lexington for 23yrs, first time today going in. Less than two miles from my work, it was delicious. I got the club, will be back. Just wish they were open on the weekends or later in the evening so my wife could enjoy
