Fresh from our kitchen to yours, with a love for family & food
A Family Tradition, Crafted with Passion
Sutton's Family Italian is a Lexington tradition, proudly serving the community for over 14 years. We are a family-owned and operated restaurant, carrying on a long-held Italian tradition of love, shared meals, and delicious food.
Our story starts in Italy, where the Mastarone family fostered a deep-seated passion for cooking and sharing authentic Italian dishes. This legacy was passed down through generations, leading to the creation of Sutton's. With over 26 years of experience in the industry, our chef and owner, Gordon Lewis, brings a wealth of expertise and creativity to our kitchen.
