There are all sorts of good local places in Lexington.  It all depends on what type of food you want.

If you want a higher end steak and food then I recommend Malones. https://bluegrasshospitality.com/malones/  They have multiple locations and other restaurants in the same building that you can order from if you want.

A really good casual place is Drakes.  It caters to a younger crowd, has sports bar area with walls they can open during the warmer days.  https://drakescomeplay.com/lexington/
A restaurant that loves beer and a bar that loves food. Over 20 craft beers on tap, big burgers and the freshest sushi in town. Your go-to for lunch, dinner and late-night, Drake's is a free-wheeling, fun-loving kind of joint. A place to hang out and let your hair down. A place to let yourself go a little. Come play!

As already mentioned Ramsey's, Joe Bolognas, and Winchell's are all solid choices as well.

Pies and Pints downtown is good for draft beer and pizza.

Ramseys is great.

Malones/Drakes are higher price.

Saul Good is decent.

Durangos is great Mexican and cheap

Bonefish Grill is good but a little pricey.

KCR Bar and Grill is new and interesting.

Bourbon and Tolouse is good cajun and pretty cheap.

Puccini's is good

City Barbecue is good
