P.J. Whelihan’s Pub + Restaurant in Lancaster is a vibrant dining destination that combines a welcoming atmosphere with a diverse menu to cater to all tastes. Known for it…
We really enjoyed this place. We had the French Dip and the chicken tenders. Both were good. Tots were good. Service was great. I would definitely recommend this place.
Cody and Sami provided outstanding service at the bar! Kudo's! Wishing there was better DirecTV reception, there wasn't a cloud in the sky, so that menacing Joker must have been up to his usual shenanigans! Smaller than other PJ's locations, but has all the usual staples. Famous fries yum. $5 wings for happy hour? Yes please! Unique experience with having a front and back door with a patio for outdoor dining. Give it a try. Tell them BatmanJawn sent you.
Very disappointing experience. My daughter’s slider had next to no meat on the bun, as you can see in the pic. My son’s carrot sticks and celery side was not anywhere near what should be thought of as “acceptable to be served” by a dining establishment (again, see pic). Celery was beginning to brown. Carrots excessively dried out. My wife had boneless wings and they were no better than what you can buy at Walmart in the frozen food section. I had a spicy southwest panini, which was marked as “seasonal”, though I believe that’s only the case due to it being the time of year that they clean out the freezer, and this, undoubtedly, was one such item. It was terribly dry, and the flavor was virtually nonexistent for unknown reasons. On the flip side, I believe they may actually cook the fries on the day of, as they were pretty good. We all enjoyed them. The service was par for the course, though the argument could be made that the waitress should have provided some quality control and caught all these things before they came out. However if this is the standard of the food they serve, it’s understandable why she didn’t. I would also exercise caution in bringing your younger children there, as the music played could be described as bordering on explicit. Needless to say, we will not be back. Not worth the $60 for a family of four.

Delicious Chicken Rolls and Thai Iced Tea! Chicken with Rice and Crispy Noodles were excellent! Be sure to share, there's so much food! Ken, the owner, made great suggestions and is adding a new menu item. We can't wait to come back to try it!
Sigh, I always order the No. 64 grill pork, and it’s been great every time, but the portion of the pork chops has noticeably decreased by half recently. And sadly, today the pho came without the soup. So sad. ======= I’m not sure how to respond directly, so I’ll edit here: The issue isn’t that I received a half-sized portion this time, today. Yes, the meat is more tender and thicker now, about 1/3 ~ 1/2 of the previous (0.3cm appx?) thicker, I totally agree with that. But the portion size has been gradually shrinking over the past year. When I ordered about 2-3 weeks ago, the quality and thickness were not the same as today’s but the size was the same, right? Maybe I should have asked about this last time so we could have had a control group.
The owners and staff of the restaurant are lovely people. The food is authentic, you get big portions, and it is delicious. If you're not familiar with Vietnamese food, Ken gives the best recommendations and happily shares his traditions and flavors, if you ask. This place is truly a"hidden gem." This restaurant is a must visit if you're a foodie. Don't forget to say "Hi" to Pablo.

Stopped at this restaurant after going to that Fish Place to grab some brunch. After getting through the construction on the main road access I by the parking lot was easy. There is handicap parking, plenty of regular parking and the entryway is easy to get wheelchairs through as long as you have someone holding the doors for you. The restaurant itself and restrooms were clean and neat. The restrooms are wheelchair accessible. The food was excellent as always. The service was quick and friendly. They are currently hiring waitstaff and kitchen help. From what o could see of the kitchen from the dining room the kitchen is super clean for restaurant during breakfast/lunch hours. You can join the rewards program through their app and also order online for pickup or delivery.
We loved our waitress Sara I think her name was. We had a big party of about 15 people and she was great with us . Got all of our food ordered and out to us in a timely fashion, got everything correct and was very helpful and attended to us often. She deserves a raise as far as we are concerned. She is a great person to have there. Thank you!
Sat for an hour waiting for food and when it came out, it wasn't even cooked all the way and it was cold. Scrambled cheese eggs had a cold piece of cheddar cheese just thrown on top and not even close to being melted. The bacon was cold, the pancakes were cold and it took 45 minutes just to get coffee.

Nice people. Average food. Small portions, small prices. 90's decor. Very clean restroom. Best described as a diner.
Second attempt to eat here. Food was just ok, husbands eggs were runny, I asked for light cheese in my omelette but it was still too much and potatoes were over cooked. Attentiveness was lacking. Had to ask for coffee refill twice and it took several minutes and the place wasn’t busy so not sure why that was. I probably won’t return
Good service, food was good. Diner atmosphere. Good value

We ordered take out. Normally food is great, but we were so disappointed to see both mine & my son’s meals were raw. Mine came with 5 & not a single one was safe to eat. My son’s came with only 2 and they were also not safe to eat and very skinny tenders not even worth the price. Luckily we had fries & my mac & cheese from my meal that i was able to give my son. This was a huge disappointment and a total waste of money. Please make sure your cooks are cooking the food all the way through. I will attach a few photos. Its hard to get in a photo but the shiney part was raw. It was even difficult to break apart.
I’ve been here before and had a great experience at the bar but tonight ordering food The sirloin and broccoli were very cold, the meat also has lots of thick white strings. I’ve ate tons of filet, sirloin, rib eye, ect. and never experienced this before
Chilli’s was so good. A better experience than I had in Florida! The food was fresh, hot and delicious! My son had the Pepper Pals Cheesy Chicken Pasta which is Cheesy chicken penne pasta in Alfredo sauce served with fries and Broccoli! My daughter had Pepper Pals Pepperoni Pizza which is a 6" Pepperoni Pizza served with orange slices and a small salad. As an appetizer we had Skillet Queso, Original queso with beef. Served with chips & fresh salsa. It was my first time having it. It was worth the try! My best friend had the BBQ Brisket Burger Pulled brisket, which was new it had house BBQ, cheddar cheese, pickles. My wife had the Mix and Match fajitas with steak and Shrimp. Side of rice and beans topped with pico de gallo! I had the Ultimate Smokehouse Combo with chilis famous Baby Back Ribs, Nashville Hot Chicken Crispers and Chicken Bacon ranch Quesadillas. Served with roasted street corn, fries & garlic toast. Every bite was soo delicious! We will be back for sure when we are in the area!

Absolutely fantastic food and experience. The staff here are amazing. They make great recommendations and really understand and can communicate what makes their food good. The service was outstanding and they were also able to prepare much of the menu gluten free upon request. The sauces that accompanied the raw platter were buoyant and flavorful. Everything was completely frictionless. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. The portion sizes are perfect - it's not so much that you leave feeling bloated and overstuffed but it is just the right amount to be full and appreciate each bite. Even though it's simple, the duck fat fries are just so crunchy and unctuous, you should definitely consider them. Update: went again today for our anniversary and it was even better than last time. Our meal was simply amazing. We had a great server, Matt, who made the experience laid back and pleasant. We will certainly keep coming back!
We easily made reservations online and we’re seated right away when arriving. The staff from the time we came in and left were absolutely amazing, super attentive and friendly. They were also very knowledgeable about the menu and answered any of the questions we had. The drinks selection was extensive, and each our drinks were really well done. The food we got of course did not disappoint, it was all beautifully presented and tasted just as great as it looked. Everyone at our table loved there food and said it was well done. I highly recommend coming here, you will not be disappointed. We will definitely come back again!
Another delightful visit to Gibraltar. The food and drinks are always top-notch. We are Lancaster foodies for the past 8+ years, and this is a tightly run ship, they never disappoint. Their servers (Ozzie, Graham) have been wonderful to us in the past. We now add to that list, tonight's server, Maggie..Wow. She was poised, knowledgeable, confident, warm, professional, good-humored, and attentive. For all of you who are seeking a good Date Night destination, you can't go wrong here.

They were very kind to serve us even though the kitchen is closed from 2pm to 4pm to prepare for dinner. We arrived barely just before 2. Great food. Great service.
Great place! Food was fantastic, but the atmosphere was... interesting. We were seated on the second floor, and my girlfriend and I felt like everyone was hearing our conversation all night. We even stopped talking at some point to see no one around us speaking. Very strange. The rest of the restaurant seemed vibrant, but something about the second floor was very off. I'm definitely coming back, I will not let one strange evening ruin what is otherwise a great place for anyone wishing to celebrate an anniversary or birthday.
Our first time & last! Honestly, quite a disappointment! This restaurant was was situated in a beautiful area. While quite lovely inside, especially the garden area, our experience was not pleasing to us at all and most importantly, our palate. First, the hostess was very welcoming and pleasant. She wished me a happy birthday as she seated us at our table. There was a card from the staff wishing me a happy bday which was a nice touch. We were seated 15 mins before our server Amy finally stopped by and took our drink orders. Although they were simply 2 waters & an iced tea, it took another good 15mins before she returned. Hubby observed that she was also servicing the downstairs area as well which would later explain why our service suffered. We ordered the Onion & "soup of the day" Mushroom soup. My (warm) onion soup was delicious while the (warm) mushroom was not impressive. Hubby referred to it as straight from the can. In fact, he said canned soup would have been better. Perhaps, adding fresh whole/slithers of mushroom would enhance its flavor and presentation. Our salads were fresh and tasty. Nothing fancy. We waited for a considerable amount of time before the (manager) delivered our entrees. The Scottish Salmon Filet over the bland gnocchi, (why gnocchi? ♀️), with broccolini for me. Linguini Seafood Pasta dish for hubby. This dish was so ridiculously small in portion, literally about a cup of pasta, unseared, tasteless (3) scallops, (2) shrimp, (4)small clams...for $29. Are you kidding me! And no offering of seasoning toppings parmesan cheese/red pepper) to enhance this tasteless creation. And to top it off, the dishes were barely warm and undercooked. And, who plates a fish dish without lemon? A surprised Amy flew by mins later after the manager dropped off our dishes and quickly left. I asked the other waitress if she could get Amy for us as our dishes were under-temperature and needed to be reheated. Look at the pic below and you can see it's not fully cooked. We waited for Amy to take our plates away & take our dessert order. We really wanted to try the pecan pie, hubs favorite. We sat for a good time before Amy dropped off the dessert menu, then we sat more waiting for her to come back to take the order. 10 mins flew by...okay, (another 15mins?) NO THANK YOU Amy! CHECK PLEASE!!! Guess what, lol...we never saw Amy again as it was no surprise....she must've been delayed, as the customers downstairs were more important to her than we were...we had to leave the bill payment on the table....oh, on our way out, the manager thanked us for coming...Happy Birthday to me!!! Conclusion- A beautiful restaurant. Decent menu. (Needs seasoning adjustments) Service-I'm sure is better than we experienced...and definitely NOT worth the price....HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED!!!

My wife and I were there this past Saturday to celebrate our 28th Anniversary. So happy we decided on this place. The place was beautiful, very comfortable, food was amazing and the staff was AWESOME! They even placed a plaque on the table with our names wishing us a Happy Anniversary. They had live jazz music that was just right, not too loud. We really enjoyed our time there and will make that a normal stop when we win Lancaster.
What a great experience! The Belvedere Inn provided us with a perfect evening, from the ambiance to the delicious food. The staff is extremely friendly and professional. Every dish on the menu is carefully prepared, and the presentation is outstanding. I especially loved the outdoor terrace area; it offers a wonderful atmosphere for a delightful meal. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience in Lancaster!
Delicious meal, very nice service, overall was a lovely experience for my husband’s birthday meal. Loved the personalized welcome from the staff! Highly recommend • scallop entree, duck breast entree, crème brulee Live music was just getting started as we were leaving and we were really happy it wasn’t throughout our meal as it was so loud we couldn’t hear one another! Other tables around us were very obviously having the same frustration - so we felt blessed to have an early reservation to enjoy our meal with wonderful conversation

We loved it up on this rooftop bar! The seating was very comfortable and many seating places to choose from since we were there at 5:00pm. I had street tacos which were pretty tasty and that cooking staff was fun and nice. My husband ordered from the deli and loved his tater tots. The music was good. We will definitely be back! It’s National Rum Day so we had to have some rum.
Emily was truly wonderful to work with and helped us plan our wedding every step of the way! She was very kind/patient, and ensured that we had everything in-order up to our wedding day! Everything was ready and perfect that day -- Emily along with the staff at Tellus 360 did an amazing job and for that we will be forever grateful!
Before going, I was a little confused by the website and other reviews about what to expect, but my expectations were blown out of the water. All the staff was super friendly and seemed to love their job! It was very convenient. When you start a tab, it follows from one of the 7 bars just with your last name. All the food looked amazing. we settled for the sushi, and it was some of the best sushi I have ever had! It is also pretty affordable at $8 - $10 a roll. Even in the rain, the rooftop was fun and had plenty of cover. The irish pub had a great live band, and the dj in the temple was awesome! All in all, it is probably the best date night place I've been to in a while. There is something for everyone and every vibe you're looking for. Update- we went back and got the bacon cheese fries, and they were amazing! Also, I got the brownie with homegrown berries! Psychedeli really outdid them selves!
LUCA is a forward-thinking company dedicated to providing innovative solutions that enhance efficiency and drive growth for businesses across various sectors. Our mission is to…
Luca is an incredible restaurant. The food, service, wine selection; everything is amazing. I’ve been a loyal customer to Luca for 3-4 years and I’ve never had a bad experience. Even when running behind (which has only occurred once) they were so gracious to bring a small bite on the house to make up for it. You won’t go wrong with choosing Luca for a bite to eat especially when their menu changes seasonally and there’s always something new to try. P.S. if you love coffee/espresso, a must try is the honey badger. It comes with an amaretti cookie which is to die for.
We had a lovely experience at Luca! The food was absolutely delicious, the service was excellent, and the drink selection is vast. The seasonal pumpkin lasagna was amazing. We absolutely plan on repeat trips.
Been a couple years since I’ve been here but I always til my wife and others that this place is great. I haven’t dined in until today. I expected it to be loud as the other times I got takeout, it was very noisy. I wondered what it would be like to hold a conversation dining in. The crispy potatoes are the best potatoes I’ve had in life. My wife agrees. The focaccia was a bit disappointing and I felt should have been complimentary, especially for what it was. The pasta… the noodles were cooked to perfection… the sauce was… sort of dry somehow. And felt something was missing from the bolognese sauce. The Luca Chicken was underwhelming. We waited an hour and 15 minutes before we got our entrees. 45 minutes after they took our appetizer plates away.. a couple came in beside us an hour after and were eating their entrees the same time we were. Pricey place.. I miss when the pizza was here as well.

My husband and I ate there last Wednesday. Our regular date night is Thursday, but it would be the 4th of July. So we ate Wednesday instead. We both started with French onion gratinee. It was very hot and loaded with onions. Love onions! The greyere was toasted on top and lovely. My husband had one of the specials. Which was steak with grilled shrimp on top and melted cheese. The steak was seasoned well his plate included seasonal vegetables and lemon potatoes. He loved this dish. I had the NY strip steak au poivre. It was delicious, perfectly cooked "rare" and seasoned well. I also had the seasonal vegetables and fries. So loved the fries as they weren't blonde. Deep golden brown and crisp. We had a wonderful dinner. Definitely French inspired. Loved it all.
The fine man, Eric, who is running this great establishment is doing a superb and prime job at what he is doing. The bartender, Tanner, made a pristine pumpkin spice espresso martini that he created the recipe for himself. Best in the county. The server, Chad, was prompt, quick, and all around amazing. After all of this I didn’t even get to the food. If you wouldn’t have known any better you would have thought Gordon Ramsey himself was back there in the kitchen. All around a 20/10.
Excellent service and food, plenty of space ( we come 14 people) and we got seats no waiting time! All food was perfect!!! Waitresses service perfectly, we don’t have any complaints, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! Definitely will come again!!
Josephine’s Downtown is a charming and vibrant establishment located in the heart of the city, dedicated to providing an exceptional dining experience for both locals and…
We had an exceptional dinner experience at Josephine’s! Our server, Kyle, was fantastic, provided great recommendations and had the perfect level of attentiveness. We shared the sea bass, house bacon, and shrimp cocktail for starters and, while all were delicious, the sea bass was a real winner. The favorite fish was the duck breast - absolute killer. And all of the cocktails were creative and awesome, as well.
This is absolutely my favorite restaurant in Lancaster. We have been going there several times a year for the past few years. The quality and taste of every dish we've gotten there is amazing. Two of my favorites at Josephine's are actually appetizers - both the Chilean sea bass and antelope are excellent. But honestly, you'll love everything you get there. The service is excellent, and everyone is very friendly. Shout out to Hunter who is an excellent server and gives great recommendations.
From start to finish this meal was incredible! We began the evening with the House Made Bacon which was perfectly cooked pork belly with buttered brussel sprouts, rosemary, burrata, pomegranate, and hot honey. Although it sounds like so unusual combinations it paired perfectly. Our other appetizer was a special and was a take on shrimp cocktail but with aïoli instead of the typical red sauce. Before dinner came out we decided to try a seasonal soup that was on the menu, the Honeynut soup. The soup’s presentation was unique coming in an acorn squash and was incredibly rich and savory - would recommend to anyone that wants to lean in to the fall spirit. For my main meal I ordered the Lemon Pepper Barramundi. If you haven’t had barramundi before I would describe it as a mild white fish that is meatier than tilapia. It was the perfect protein to accompany the black rice, carrots, peas and fantastic curry sauce. We finished the night with no room but couldn’t pass up the vanilla bean crème brûlée. If you love vanilla this is the perfect dessert, it’s full of beans and the custard was extremely decadent. I would absolutely recommend Josephine’s for a date night, business dinner or just because!

This place was top notch from beginning to end! Every employee that we interacted with was so warm and welcoming - from the person who took our reservation over the phone, the hostess, the waitress … A+ personality! We were visiting from out of town and I chose this place because of the high reviews and the “farm to table”. What a great choice!! The food was absolutely incredible!! And the price was very reasonable for the quality of food that was served. We were expecting the bill to be so much higher than it was. We asked to be seated outside and the ambiance outside was incredible! Thank you for such a great dinning experience! If we ever come back to the area we will definitely stop here again!!
What a find! My wife and I wanted a special place to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary, and we just happened to be in Lancaster, PA. The Yelp and Google reviews for this restaurant have it as one of the highest rated fine dining establishments in the entire area... I think the reviews are too low. The meal was delicious... everything we ate, from appetizers to main course was top notch food. You can tell that they take the time to make sure that all their food is made with the best ingredients and finest preparation as it was all so good! We wish there was one in our area... but this will always give us something to look forward to anytime we visit Amish country!
John J Jeffries knocked it out of the park. If you're visiting Lancaster, this restaurant is a must-try. The service was excellent. Not just our waiter, but everyone at the front of the house was bringing their A game. The team here was working in harmony, with good communication and dedication to making sure we had a good experience. My fiancée had a gluten sensitivity, and this was well accommodated. The managers of this establishment should be commended. The food was just excellent. Their seasonal menu changes often, but everything tasted very high quality. The flavors were often complex and sophisticated without being too strong or overwhelming. The "surf and turf" was, as my fiancee declared, something she'd feel luxurious eating every day. The shrimp and grits and beef tartare are both excellent as well. Sharing a few small plates is definitely the way to go. By the time we finished the meal, we were already talking about when we'd next get the chance to come back. And last note: the good price! Not inexpensive, but absolutely reasonable given the service, environment, and high quality of the food. The owners here are definitely keeping a modest profit margin here, and it makes me eager to come back.

My husband and I planned to eat here for our anniversary last minute when we were in the area. We were able to secure a reservation online within a 2-hour timeframe on a Friday night. We actually arrived approximately a half hour prior to our reservation and were able to be seated right away. The staff were attentive and stated they help each other out, so if you need anything such as a refill, you can ask any waitstaff walking by. We did not have to wait too long for our meals to come out. I got the parmesan crusted chicken, and my husband got a steak, both of which were delicious! The prices were slightly high but not bad. When we booked our reservation, we listed it as our anniversary, and prior to the check coming out, our server brought us a complimentary dessert with a sparkler in it, which was very nice! I would recommend this restaurant, and I would eat here again!
Went here for anniversary dinner. Food was great. Service was lacking. Saw our waiter 3 times. Once when we came in. Then 20 min later we finally got to order food and drinks. Never checked on us after that. Finally came back for us to order desert. The managers were on point though. Had to have manager get us check. Will go back though.
Five stars all around. The staff, service and food were excellent. From the moment we walked through the doors to when we left, we were taken care of. We came here for my birthday and the staff were friendly, professional and provided an experience I will never forget. I highly recommend visiting with friends & family for special occasions.

This place was awesome definitely would go back. Burton B was an amazing waiter the food and drink was excellent. Great atmosphere cool building. They are doing a great thing. They even have a vending machine you can buy a T-shirt in that's cool too. Cool little town parking lot is a book warehouse I believe. Fall fried gains are awesome so delicious and my husband got shrimp and grits he said it was the best shrimp he ever had.
For starters, the food here was very good. It was flavorful and filling. The servers were helpful and friendly, and they were great at assisting their customers. I thought that the building was neat too and I liked seeing how it had been converted from a stable to a restaurant. I would gladly come here again if I found myself in Lancaster.
With the many high reviews, my expectations were set high - which may have resulted in them getting a low score from me. We waited for an hour for our table, no big deal for not having a reservation - but hosts were subpar in friendliness. The place follows the theme well, but smells awful. Piano band wasn’t my favorite, loud, as the place itself was drafty, and the floor bounces. Food and service was slow once we were seated. We spent over 2hrs and wasn’t blown away. Not a bad place, but not worth a wait or a rave review.

Fun place! We got some food and played some arcade games. The food is very good, drinks were delicious and unique, service was pleasant, and the prices were reasonable. There's a lot to do here - bowling, retro arcade games, a bar, food and drinks, etc. Overall, fun place to visit in Lancaster!
June 2024 Food and service were decent and prices were very reasonable, including the cost to play a bunch of video games. Not the biggest collection of arcade games but we still had a good time. The building interior is really cool and preserves its old age charm, adding to allure of the experience of playing retro video games. Great place to spend a couple hours.
Bring your inner child and have some fun! We absolutely enjoyed our time here. Playing some of the games we grew up with was a good time, like Donkey Kong and Mario Brothers. They have convenient side tables everywhere, so you have a place for your drink or belongings while you play. You have to buy tokens for the games, and they go a long way since each game is only 1 to 2 tokens. The pretzel bites and chicken tenders were really good.

If you’re looking for a nice, quiet dinner with great food and ambiance, Cork & Cap is your spot. I love the rustic feel to the restaurant with the stone walls and the old school architecture. I got the Short Rib Wellington, which was absolutely delicious. The short rib was super tender and flavorful and the pasty was perfectly flaky and crispy. The Demi-glacé was the icing on the cake.
Food is really good and the service is great in a really cool setting. The crab cakes were spot on and the beef was nice and tender.
My husband wanted to check it out since we were in Landcaster for a quick getaway. Our young waiter Doug was great. It was a wonderful experience. We are going to check out the price of the hotel maybe we will stay there next time.

Absolutely incredible. The crab croquettes were very soft and had a excellent crab taste. The arrangement of the plates were beautiful. The inside of the restaurant was very personal. You could tell that everything was done with care, intentionality. The main courseries were fantastic. The steak was cooked perfectly, chicken was delicate with a beautiful mushroom flavor. The desserts were not overly sweet. I would really recommend giving this place a try!
I had Citronnelle on my list for a long time! My friends were in from L.A. so I made reservations. Overall, the food was underwhelming. Maybe I expected too much, but I wasn't a fan of some of the flavors and also felt that the 'umami' was missing. However, the services was impeccable, the environment was romantic and high-end, so maybe I just had an off night (me and/or the restaurant).
Rude. Initially, when I sent an email to change my reservation the owner was very gracious. Unfortunatel, the young woman who is waiting on us was less so. It is rude to tell your customers, once you've told them that you've run out of french fries, after putting down the menus and not mentioning the items that you were missing, to suggest that they go to McDonald's if they want fries. It's also very strange for a Modern French bistro restaurant to run out of bread at 7:30 in the evening. Yes, it is odd that they served some sort of version of focaccia instead of a proper baguettes but maybe that's all part of the modern twist? However, every one of us has access to even Frozen baguettes from any chain grocery store that we can reheat when we run out of bread for ourselves and in a pinch, for our customers. The waitress seem to have an attitude when she delivered that news as well. It is the hospitality business even in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and she did not seem very hospitable. As far as the food went, the appetizers were fine. We especially enjoyed the croquettes and the carpaccio. I found the duck and fig bisteeya to the incredibly dense and lacking in duck. There was a lot of fig. Not an interesting dish. Although my co diner enjoyed his so it is a case of to each his own. The fish of the day was good and so was the lamb. The complete failure was the dessert. The souffles, which we ordered with our mains tasted like scrambled eggs with sugar and flavorings in them. They were curdled. They were not souffles and the creme anglaise was the consistency of milk not properly made creme anglaise. Two good things about this restaurant are: One, that it's fairly quiet. It's a very plain room ambiance-wise, but you can't hear your fellow diners, which is nice. Two, the corkage fee is very low. Another snide response from our waitress was regarding whether or not they had anything that was non-alcoholic to drink. She said only coffee or tea. I found out later there was a ginger beer on the menu that she didn't think I needed to know about. It seems strange with the plethora of non-alcoholic drinks and mocktails available at most restaurants these days that this place would not have a better selection.

Wow! So pleasantly shocked with amazing quality and taste of gluten - free desserts which are so rare to find !! I felt like I was in Europe! Perfect taste, not overly sweet - just right!
We enjoyed a wonderful dinner. Mike, who was our bartender & server, explained the specials and answered our questions about the menu. We decided to enjoy oysters & beef tartare as appetizers. Our dinners included the chicken (phenomenal), the burger (outstanding) and a salad. The cocktails were superb. One the way out, we treated ourselves to a number of desserts from the bakery. We already look forward to our next visit.
Excellent place in Lancaster. Food for the tasters. I had molten chocolate for desert, and it was the best I tasted

Fine dining at its best. Celebrated our anniversary last night and couldn’t have asked for a better evening. Great food, atmosphere, and exceptional service. Ask for Joseph as your server, outstanding!!
Reading some of these reviews- blows my mind. People complaining about the prices, portions, speed of service- this is an upscale, fine dining restaurant. If you want food in 20 minutes and a cheap 20 oz steak go to Applebees. My husband and I went here last night for our 10 year wedding anniversary and it was our first time. I was very impressed. It’s a beautiful, dimly lit romantic and upscale setting, you don’t “feel” like you’re in Lancaster. Which is nice! We ordered the shrimp cocktail which was insane, and my husband had a glass of red wine. I had the garden salad, which was absolutely delicious. My husbands steak was perfect, the scallops I had were the best I’ve ever had my whole life, and I highly recommend the rainbow carrots! Our server was polite, patient, nailed our order, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the menu. Zero complaints! Yes, the portions are small- IT IS FINE DINING. Yes, the food can take a while, they’re making it TO ORDER, and it’s a dining experience, not a rush in rush out…. And yes, it’s expensive but it is friggin delicious. While we won’t be eating here weekly, I can assure you when we next need to celebrate, we will be back. The service was great, the food was great, the atmosphere was great- 5/5 recommend!!!
Went here last night Oct 4th for a 5:30pm. reservation. We were running a little late because of traffic, so we called them to let them know, and they were very accommodating. The issue was that when we got there, there was absolutely no place to park on the street as it states on their website that street parking is available. Most of the parking was neighborhood permitted parking spots. There were about 5 parking spots in front of the restaurant, but of course, those were all taken. The Queen Street garage, which is also stated on their site to park, was also closed. After calling them back, they stated that they share a parking lot with a mental facility that is next door. The lady on the phone was not very clear on where it was, but after driving around for a few minutes, I thought I had found it, but it turned out I was wrong. Once we started walking to the restaurant, I saw the parking lot she was referring to, so had to go back and get the car to park in the correct lot so I don't get a ticket or be towed. I think the restaurant needs to make it more clear where people are able to park with clear instructions as to where the shared parking lot is because it does not state it well on the website at all. Once we arrived, we were immediately seated. It was not overly crowded, and in fact, they seated us in the back, which is sort of like a separate room away from everything and everyone. At one point during the night we were literally by ourselves with no other people around us which I thought was strange, but as the night went on, more people and couples started to arrive in the area we were seated. The service was good, and our waitress seemed very attentive. However, there was one point at the beginning of our service when I thought our waitress got offended. I asked her if it would be okay if I ordered items from the surf and turf section. She stated that all items were on the regular menu. I corrected her and told her they weren't because the Live Maine Stuffed Lobster Tail was not part of the regular menu, only the African Lobster Tail was. I knew this because I had been studying their menu for a week because I knew I was coming here. After she knew I was right, she said, "No problem, I can mix and match whatever I would like." From that point on, I thought the rest of the meal and customer service were not going to be good. For a few times, when she came back, it seemed like there was a little bit of animosity from her, but it went away after my wife started having a conversation with her. The drinks were good and showcased well in elegant large glasses. My wife got a cosmo, and I got a Tito's on the rocks, which had a ball shaped piece of ice in the glass, which I love. I got the bacon for the appetizer, which reminded me of Peter Lugers restaurant in Brooklyn. The bacon was actually very good. Some parts of it were very soft, and it literally melted in your mouth. Other parts of it had a nice chard, which made it a really good balance. My wife got a sald and it was huge. Probably a good two people would be able to eat it easily. It took a while for the main course to come, but when it did, the presentation lf it looked great. I got the Live Maine Lobster Tail and 3 scallops from the surf and turk section of the menu. My wife got the scallops entree. My lobster was cooked perfectly and the stuffing was also very good. My scallops were also good, but they seemed to have been dipped into something on the top of them as the tops of the scallops were pretty crusted and hard. We also got the rainbow carrots and mashed potatoes for our sides, which again were big portions and more than enough for two people to share and still have a lot leftover. I did not care for the fet cheese with the carrots as it made them taste a little bitter, in my opinion. For dessert, we got the chocolate decadence, which was divine and a nice ending to our meal. The bill came out to $300 for my wife and I,which is what I was expecting. Overall, it was a nice experience and ould eat here again. I wish parking was better.
