“Fantastic food and the staff are amazing! Don't forget to check out the Pay it Forward wall and bless if you can😊“

“What a wonderful evening. The food was amazing, the drinks were creative and the cabaret night was so fun! Highly recommend for an elevated dining experience.“

“The sesame chicken 🐔 bowl was really delicious with accompaniments of several peppers, pineapple, snap peas, grains, spinach and sesame sauce. In fact it was so good and hearty I could only eat 1/2 the bowl and shared it with my husband. He got Korean bbq beef and the beef some pieces were a little tougher than he wouldn’t like and he said it was a little more heat then he preferred but that’s just his opinion someone else might like the spice. Overall we would definitely come back as we enjoyed the fresh food, veggies and the better healthier choices as we are trying to adapt to a healthier lifestyle“

“We had a wonderful waiter who helped us pick out our entrees. The food was unbelievable. Great service, great ambiance, great food. Can’t go wrong! We will definitely be back.“

“We loved Passerine! The branzino was fabulous! The ribeyes were perfect! Loved the mushroom soup and pate! And the specialty cocktails were full size and delicious. It was a great night with friends!“

“I love jb dawsons. Their food is delicious. I would highly recommend eating there. That being said I was highly disappointed today. I am a single mom on a tight budget. I wanted to enjoy lunch with my friend and daughter today. We chose in Dawson’s because they are not only delicious but they offer free kids meals on Sundays! That’s about the only way I can afford to go to be honest . We were excited to eat there today! We get seated and the waitress tells us kids aren’t free today because it’s Father’s Day?! Like seriously ? So we had to leave … cuz I simply couldn’t afford it. I’m raising my daughter alone and wanted to enjoy a good meal on the only day/time I could afford to and we couldn’t because of this. Just highly disappointed in them today.“

“We had dinner with some friends!! Three of us got the pork chop and it was wonderful! Another friend had the Beef Wellington and she said it was delicious! Everyone was kind and serving to us.“

“The food was Fantastic!! Husband & I came in for our 26th wedding anniversary dinner!! Great service as well❤️“

“We had lunch at the outside bar today. Moira was our server, pleasant and loves what she does. She gave lunch suggestions and we had the shrimp tacos, her suggestion. They were amazing.
Stoner Grille is lucky to have a great server like Moira.“

“I have to say, it was extremely refreshing to have such a wonderful lunch today here. My mother & I stumbled upon Blue Collar & we will definitely be back & tell others. Our lunch was delicious & the portions were great. The staff was so accommodating, kind & truly seem to be happy to accommodate to make sure we had a great experience. I feel like now days having a great dining experience is very rare. Thank u Blue Collar & staff. Your wonderful customer service is definitely noticed & appreciated & the food is wonderful!! Be back soon.“

“The three of us went for a late lunch and even though we had to wait about 20-25 minutes to get a seat, the staff for the most part were really friendly. One of the waitresses has been there for a long time and is always super friendly to my mom and I. Food came out fairly quickly and tasted wonderful“

“First visit and was impressed“

“Great Food. Outdoor seating. Outdoor Igloo seating in the winter. Great beer selection.“

“This is our very favorite restaurant, however due to a very large crowd this evening, we had to sit at the bar. It was nice at first. But our waitress/bartender was a bit rude to us and didn't even check on how our meals came out, offer more beverages, refills and did not offer dessert. We usually tip very well but didn't this time. The crowd had really dispersed by the time we had our meals so there was really no excuse for the bad service. We will continue to go back of course becasue we love it there but hoping for a better experience.“

“Great place - note, this review is for the room rental of this facility. We decorated the room for an event, and it's a very nice space. There's a decent amount of space, good tables and seats, a lot of parking, and the staff are friendly! This is a nice venue if you're looking for an event space. Note - decorations are from Angie's Variety Shop.“

“One of the great food stands at Southern Market, offering innovative farm fresh cuisine. Loved everything; but, have to give a huge shout out to the turkey melt. This isn't Grandpa's turkey melt....it is an extraordinary sandwich with thick turkey cuts, fresh crisp sourdough and just enough tang from the cranberry compote. I'm a fan...“

“Best restaurant in the inside and outside great food, I had a 10/10 experience good food, perfect service and the latin nights are amazing 🤩“

“This is one of the finest restaurants in Lancaster County and is always a great dining experience! They have an incredible beverage selection of specialty cocktails - absolutely try the Paper Plane if you are a bourbon fan. The appetizers are fantastic - my wife enjoyed the Gem Salad, and our friends raved about the shrimp special offered last evening. For the main course - two of our party had the Bronzino and expressed that it was prepared perfectly with the Maitre'd removing the bones table side - a very nice touch! i had the Shrimp Spaghettini - fresh shrimp in a savory pomodoro sauce. We highly recommend dining here - the staff is very professional, yet friendly and thorough. You are greeted warmly upon arrival and made to feel that they truly appreciate your dining with them. The atmosphere is relaxing and perfect for conversation.“

“In business for nearly thirty years, Lancaster Brewing Company has the brewpub concept down pat. The atmosphere is casual (albeit potentially fairly loud), and the dining area offers a view of the brewery tanks. Speaking of the beer, there are quite a few varieties to choose from – everything from nitro stouts to peanut butter ales — and LBC offers flights for those who want to try it all. The food selections are equally impressive. While you can find the requisite wings/burger/pizza here, LBC also defies expectations by offering up white chili or a chicken, leek, and lager pie.

My wife and I split an order of teriyaki fried cauliflower, a braided soft pretzel, and a burger meister and found the food to be very good. The cauliflower featured thick breading and a sweet teriyaki glaze. I could have eaten an entrée’s worth of it and have been satisfied. The pretzel was warm and pulled apart easily. Rather than being accompanied by separate cheese and mustard dips, its partner was a blend of beer cheese and mustard, strongly flavored but tasty if you don’t mind mustard. The burger featured fresh ground bratwurst, something that will leave you wondering where it was all your life. The accompanying fries were natural-cut, salty, and crisp.

While our server was friendly and helpful at the beginning of the meal, she vanished toward the end, and we were in for a wait to get our checks. LBC isn’t cheap for what it offers - $13 for the cauliflower, $16 for the burger – but the portions are at least sizeable.

If you want good beer, good food, and a dash of the unexpected, Lancaster Brewing Company is a very appealing option as long as you have the patience for high volume and a bit of a wait.“

“So my husband and I love trying new places! We are not from Lancaster but from the Reading area. We sat at the bar on Saturday and met Boots.. Yes. Our bartenders name was Boots. He was nothing short of amazing!!!!! He was fun, funny, knowledgable and perfect!! Our food (Korean kabobs and pretzel) were sooo delicious!!! Drinks fantastic!!! If you have a chance to chill with Boots I highly suggest you do it!!! Thank you Boots for a fantastic afternoon. Just wish we got to see Kat and give her that message (lol)“

“I have been wanting to bring my family to dinner here for quite some time, and finally we made it over last night. The 40-minute drive was so well worth it, we were not at all disappointed! The food was exceptional, great prices and quality, presentation. and the nostalgic atmosphere really brought it all together. All of the food my family ordered was perfectly cooked and the portions are spot on. From the steak to the burger, to my liver and onions! I also have to add that if you like wings, well you MUST get them. I travel all around the country and all around the globe for my Equestrian Business, Sensory Soundness, and let me tell you, your senses will be overjoyed! The wings here are at the top tier level! I got the Old Bay dry rub, and I highly recommend! The staff are all great, work as a team, and our server Becca was just wonderful. Great Job by all, we will be back!!“

“Outstanding service. Excellent Diner style food, served hot. Follow the locals and you cant go wrong .“

“Hello and good afternoon!! I was just in and ordered and picked up a Cheese pizza and a Pepperoni pizza.

“wonderful retro diner. you can eat in or they have some tables outside. if you go for ice cream 🍦 you can walk up to the outside order window! the weekly soft serve is 💋 delicious!“

“Penley's Pub is a recent addition to Dutch Wonderland. It's the first restaurant inside the park that serves alcohol and they have a great selection of local beers. They also have a few food options focusing on pretzels and sausages. The prices are decent given that it's inside an amusement park.“

“Had seen the billboard and we were in the area so decided to try it. We were both glad we did! My wife got a wrap with potato twists and I got the fried chicken plate. We both couldn't believe how good they were. Great waitress also. The pretzels are a great added bonus. Can't wait to come back and try other items.“

“Parking: Arthur's Terrace Restaurant is located in The Eden Resort Hotel, Best Western, Eden Road, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where there is plenty of parking.

Wheelchair accessibility: Restaurant is located in a hotel where there is a hotel lobby.“

“I wish I could eat here everyday it’s that good. The burgers and grilled cheese r to die for. I love me a good old diner and this and wimpy and dees r the PERFECT diners for me. This one don’t have booths and usually I would be disappointed by that but this restaurant is so retro and classic I don’t mind sitting at a table here. Burgers r out of this world juicy and tender as well. Definitely got a really fun feel to this place. Kids meals r served In a car which is neat“

“Fast service and good food.“

“Our kids love the Nutella Dough Head Waffles!“

“Friendly staff and reasonable drink prices.“

“They have great service and delicious food. I highly recommend them. Their country store is great, too.“

“Where to start. We have probably driven by this place dozens of times as we pass through Lancaster back to home in Maryland. We were looking for a place to grab dinner and saw this on Yelp (sorry Tripadvisor). Wow! There is a fairly limited menu of either burgers, cheesesteaks or chicken dishes. But who needs a million choices when what they do, they do amazingly. We got the single patty burgers. You can go up to four, yes, four. We also ordered them with the fried cheese curd, which is a patty of mozzarella cheese that's deep fried and put on the burger. Did I say "yummy!" yet? Made with a fresh beef patty and put on a buttered bun, it was soooo good! The burger was just absolutely delicious. Best burger I've had in ages, hands down. And where can you get a fresh made burger for $5.99? I mean really, $5.99. The fried cheese curd added $2.25 but well worth it for still less than $8.50. We also ordered a side of fries and an order of onion rings. The onion rings were just how I like them with a crispy panko style coating. They were great! Again, best onion rings I've had in a long time, if not forever. We barely touched the hand cut fries due to filling up on the burger and onion rings, but they were also good. We got the Route 66 sauce on the burgers and a cup to dip the onion rings in. Again, delicious. Note that if you are looking for bacon on your burger, this is a Halal restaurant and there is none. I'm a big fan of bacon on my burger, but you won't need it, trust me. This is definitely a place we will be coming back to. A bit of warning that parking may be a little challenging for folks not used to driving in a city and inside the place is pretty tight. We did not have to wait for a table, but I imagine there could be a wait at times. But it would be well worth any wait!!“

“This has become my favorite place to get dinner in lancaster! And Mel is definitely a 10/10 server and gives you the best experience yet!!“
