The Layers of Lexington, Gun and Garden Magazine
by Erik Reece - Aug/Sep 2010
Just up the street, a visionary restaurateur named Les Miller and his wife, Aumaine Mott, have opened Stella’s Kentucky Deli, which serves completely local and seasonal fare. Several surrounding churches have started community gardens. Local activist Jim Embry recently organized the Bluegrass Food Security Summit, with the goal of planting a garden in every school, church, and empty lot around Lexington. In Cheapside Park, once the site of slave auctions, the city just completed a glass and steel pavilion that now houses a wildly popular farmers’ market. On Saturday mornings you may find a young man named Shane Tedder (newly hired as UK’s sustainability coordinator) mixing up smoothies with a bicycle-powered blender. Six blocks away, Les Miller and his brother Josh have brought back to life a derelict watering hole called Al’s Bar that now serves up ridiculously cheap local bison, in the form of burgers.

Not much more to say than what the current reviews already posted, but I'll add my 2 cents. I've had the burger, club sandwich, and the hot brown (several times). DO NOT pass on the hot brown at this place. It is not the 'heart attack on a ...?

Fun little spot. Good food, very friendly service. Trying to do something new and different on the north side of downtown. Kudos to that. I'm so tired of the bourgeois of Lexington supporting the corporate restaurants that come here to ...?

If you're in the downtown area, check out Stella's for lunch. They buy meat and veggies from local farmers, plus grow a lot of their own. The lamb burger with basil mayo is one of my faves. Or try the grilled apple and Kentucky Bleu cheese ...?

We have eaten at Stella's many many times. The owners and the staff are always amazingly friendly, the service great, and the food so good that you really try to eat it slowly in order to enjoy it as long as possible.?

Crowded little place, but worth the trip! I've been 3 times in the past few weeks and have had a pleasant experience each time. Lunch time is especially crowded, so plan to arrive off the peak time at noon. Orders are placed at the bar, ...?

Stella's is by FAR one of my favorite places to eat breakfast in the whole of the bluegrass. Whatever else you may do, try it on Saturday. They open at 10 AM and it can get crowded early. But even if there's a short wait you need to try ...?

After hearing for years about Stella's my husband and I finally took advantage of the July 3rd day off to eat here. What a wonderful lunch we experienced. Stella's is committed to using only local and Kentucky grown/raised products. ...?

We got to Stella's right at high noon and every table was taken both inside and also out on the patio. Wow, this is a popular place. But we ordered sandwiches and drinks and shortly a table outside opened up and we moved out there. ...?

Great local food, amazing staff, all at totally affordable prices. Stella's is a Lexington treasure and a definite must! Burgers, housemade sodas, and desserts all made on-site. Truly the best lunch spot in town! ...?

I don't usually write reviews but this is going to be really easy... I ordered the Grilled Apple, Blue Cheese, Toasted Walnut Sandwich and added bacon and it was tasty. My wife ordered turkey sandwich (they use real turkey shavings) it ...?
