Our Story

A neighborhood restaurant born from a love of great food, good company, and the belief that Lexington deserved a place to call its own.

Private Property interior dining room

Downtown Lexington's Living Room

Private Property opened its doors on West Main Street with a simple idea: Lexington needed a place where neighbors could gather, celebrate, and simply enjoy a great meal without pretension. Over a decade later, that idea has grown into one of the most beloved restaurants in the Midlands.

We believe hospitality starts before the first bite. From the warm greeting at the door to the last sip of a handcrafted cocktail, every moment matters to us. Our kitchen team sources from local farms whenever possible, and our bar program is built around seasonal ingredients and serious technique.

Whether it's a date night, a birthday celebration, a business dinner, or just a Tuesday that needs improving — Private Property is ready for you. Pull up a chair. This table is yours.

What We Stand For

Our Commitments

Six things that define how we cook, serve, and show up for our community every single day.

🌿

Local & Seasonal Sourcing

We build our menus around what's fresh and available locally. Supporting SC farms isn't a marketing line — it's how we shop.

🍸

Craft Cocktail Program

Our bartenders are trained mixologists who care deeply about flavor, balance, and the story behind every pour.

🥦

Genuine Hospitality

We train every team member to treat guests like they're coming to someone's home — because in many ways, they are.

🏠

Private Event Expertise

From rehearsal dinners to corporate luncheons, our events team handles every detail so you can enjoy your moment.

🌎

Community Rooted

We sponsor local events, support Lexington charities, and show up for the people who show up for us. Lexington first, always.

Consistency You Can Trust

We've earned a 4.7-star rating by delivering the same quality experience on a Wednesday lunch as on a Saturday night.
