“We ate here and the food was amazing but what was even more amazing was our waitress, Camryn. She went above and beyond for our family and made us feel like family. We were all impressed and will recommend everyone to this lovely place and hope they get her as a server(I’m sure all the servers are great just never had one as caring and compassionate as her)”
“Excellent food and excellent service. What more can anyone ask for.”
“Our table of 14, last evening, were fortunate to have Tyler & Julie as our servers! Dinner was so amazing! We were celebrating 3 anniversaries & a birthday & after the delicious food we were surprised with a "sparkling" dessert! We'll be back, again, soon!”

“I have been to the new location (5th and Cherry) twice since it opened and both times the food has been amazing. Staff are friendly and it’s such a cozy environment. There is often a line due to high demand but don’t be discouraged! It moves quickly. All of their pastries and pretzel rolls are delicious. 😋”

“FF Poke W 12th St. (Not Peach St.) is hands down my favorite spot in town—this place consistently outperforms even some of the high-end sit-down restaurants when it comes to food quality. Every bowl is fresh and flavorful. You can really tell they prioritize quality ingredients, and the portions are reasonable without being overpriced.
The food prep area is always spotless, and has seperate utensils for each food preventing allergy contamination. I usually grab my order to go, but they do have indoor seating if you want to stay and eat. While it’s not a fancy dine-in atmosphere, it’s clean, simple, and gets the job done”
“Beautiful historic train station with a brewery and delicious food. Parking was a little difficult to find. Walking through the door was well worth it. This place takes you back to the old days. Your mind starts to wonder and you can imagine the hustle and bustle of all the people. Such a cool place!”
“This grocery is like art work....the best grocery store I have ever seen in my life... I need to come visit home more for this store 😊”

“This place is absolutely phenomenal! Went last night for a girls night out and everything from the service to the food to the immense wine list and wines on tap were top notch! I don’t have a single negative thing to say, and we will be back! (I 100% recommend the charcuterie board- yum!) 🧀 🥰🍷”
“My grandma and I went out to lunch to the peach Street location in Erie PA and we had this wonderful server named Katie, she was so nice to us and had a bubbly personality and made us want to come back for sure!! Get this girl the biggest raise you can get!!! The food was phenomenal and the service was my favorite part!!”
“Thank you The Cork 1794 for the BEST time today! Service was absolutely amazing, the food was delicious and Elsa was beyond perfect and made my daughter the happiest girl! Face Painting by Connie LLC is always the cherry 🍒 on top! Thank you thank you thank you! ❄️ Elsa brunch was beyond magical 🌟”
“This was my 4th time there, I had a reservation but my party couldn't make it so I dined alone, SEATING WAS AWESOME, AMBIANCE WAS SUPERB AND MY WAITRESSES WERE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I WILL BE DINING ALONE AGAIN REAL SOON, IT WAS A VIBE🤗”
“I’ve been to room 33 about 5 times and every single time I have been there it is amazing. The food, the atmosphere, the drinks, the decor, the customer service! I’ve been there twice for wedding receptions, and three times with friends or family. Keep up the great work! Love this place❤️”

“I’ve never met better people than you guys! You guys are working Christmas Eve and while some may be bitter - you both are the exact opposite and are what Christmas is all about! Thank you Amanda and Robert for amazing customer service. I wish you nothing but the best.”
“A lot of times, the McDonald's restaurants around here have issues with getting orders done without at least one error. During a busy Saturday afternoon, this one got everything correct without us having to circle back around for them to finish the order. Extra kudos to the drive thru crew, our order was large and frustrating, but y'all nailed it. Keep it up!”
“I've tried this place at least 5 times. food is good. Today I walked in and grabbed menu and was ready to order. the young lady blonde ponytail just continued to fold bags while I was standing there. eventually I had to seat at the bar and the other nice lady took my order behind the bar. the nice lady had to hand the check to blonde haired girl to cash me out. others came in to dine and blonde head girl assistant them in a hurry. made me uncomfortable.”

Takeout Restaurants
“Highly recommend OOTGC. They have quick customer service and excellent coffee. The coffee , teas and coffee beans are so good. It’s the best coffee I have ever had and it makes for great gifts for family and friends.”
“Scallion pancakes, Sexy girl rolls, erie rolls, chicken tempura. Deep fried icecream. HANDS DOWN. 1000/10 THE BEST FOOD I have had in the last 5 years. Service is amazing, the owners are so nice, I can't say enough good things about this place! I'm not typically into seafood but this had so much flavor and such a nice texture that i LOVED IT. I'm about to go into a food coma. This was the best date night!”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Today was the first time my wife and I tried Bro Mans and for the first time in a long time I was absolutely amazed by a restaurant, the food came out fast and I can't say I've never had a better burger!! recommend the big bro!!! all I can say is try them you won't be disappointed”
“I want to give a huge shout out to the workers at Panos on Sunday morning. We had more people then anticipated for breakfast and they accommodated us with ease and professionalism. It turned from 15 to 29 people! Waitresses kept calm, everything ran smoothly and was a pleasure to be served with such grace. Thank you!! 😁”
“We came to celebrate my daughter’s 17th birthday and I had visited before and knew this would be a place she would love! They did not let us down! Not only was the food amazing but they performed a little birthday celebration for her that I was not expecting but was so awesome! Thank you guys for making her day extra special.”
“Five star rating on everything important to me: 1) Great food, 2) Great service, 3) Great down home atmosphere, 4) Great prices. Yesterday morning was my first time there. 11:30 am was a good time - not crowded. I will definitely recommend this restaurant and be back occasionally, maybe with friends.”
“I stopped by Rita’s for an Italian ice, and it was the ultimate refreshment on a hot summer day. Smooth, flavorful, and perfectly chilled, every bite was so light yet satisfying. It had that perfect sweetness that leaves you wanting another, and I can’t wait to visit again.”
“We came inside to eat. Dar was our waitress. She was so pleasant and funny and kept checking on us to see if we needed anything. She was like a family member. Everybody there was giving samples inside and out and were very very helpful. We will be coming back. She deserves a raise, promotion and a day off with pay.”
“The food there is always made perfectly. It’s a great place to have a date night, too.”
“I love how Arnone's keeps old italian traditional foods alive. The foods and dough are fresh daily. Il loro cibo mi ricorda la cucina della mia bisnonna cresciuta a Little Italy.”

“One of my favorite places to eat in Erie! The staff is so kind and the food is delicious. I really appreciate the vegan options that are clearly marked on the menu, and I always look forward to their vegan special each week! Always my go-to spot, and each time I go, I like it even better than the last.”
“We have been going to Nostrovia since they opened, and we make it a point to go at least 2-3 times a month. The beer list is changing out frequently and always has an option for everybody. Not a beer drinker, no worries because there are options for the non-beer drinkers as well. They always have a cider on tap, frozen drinks in the summer, a mule (compliments of luminary) and sometimes a seltzer is available too. The food is simple, but the taste is incredible! We have never been disappointed here. Not to mention the staff have always been extremely kind and gracious to their guests. Thank you to catering to those of us who come with kiddos with the “busy bee” kits and hot dog meals!! This is beyond appreciated from 2 parents who still want to come and enjoy the place with our 2 year old! Cannot recommend this quaint little brewery enough!”
“This place is legit. The staff was welcoming and helpful, the place was spotless even during a Friday lunch hour, and the food.... oh the food! The burrito was beyond massive and my husband raved about the carnita being flavorful and tender. My bowl had to tip the scales at well over a pound, at least. My chicken was moist and, other than the rice, could be an extremely healthy option, if that's what is desired. With the addition of a pint of salsa and seemingly half a bag's worth of homemade chips ( because we had NO idea), this is easily be enough for several lunches. Those of you that are local know this type of quality and authenticness is a rare find on Peach Street. Well done and cheers to many future visits!”
“Go every Monday for their special on wings. 75c wings is a pretty hard price to beat nowadays with inflation! They have dart boards and a pool table, which are almost always open. Kendra is a great waitress and is always down to have a great conversation with us!”
“We had an Event in the Ballroom on Friday. Julio could not have been more helpful, very easy to work with. He had wonderful suggestions, too. The atmosphere was fabulous, we hired Ed Koscelek for uplights to create an even more beautiful ambience for our 200 attendees. The food was delicious and the service excellent! HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Thank you, Julio and Staff! We appreciate ALL that you did to make our evening the best!”

“My God, just ate the BEST chicken I've ever ate HANDS DOWN!!! Thank you Mark for introducing me to Tha Flavor!! I'll be back guaranteed!!”
“Always love the beer. Salaura always does a great job. very friendly and helpful. Old fashioned is amazing!”
“The night before our recent Vistage meeting in Erie, I had the privilege of dining at the Erie Club, and it was nothing short of exceptional. Tucked away in the intimate wine room in the basement, our dinner felt like a hidden gem—warm, private, and rich with atmosphere. The food was absolutely fantastic, from the perfectly prepared entrees to the attentive service that made the entire evening feel special. It’s the kind of meal and setting that leaves a lasting impression—and I’m already hoping I’m lucky enough to return again soon.
What makes the Erie Club even more remarkable is the history that surrounds you the moment you walk through the doors. Housed in the Charles Manning Reed Mansion, the building dates back to 1846–1849 and originally served as the private home of Charles Manning Reed, a member of one of Erie’s founding families. The Reed lineage traces back to Colonel Seth Reed, one of the city’s earliest settlers. The mansion’s Greek Revival architecture—complete with a grand pedimented portico and Ionic columns—sets the tone for the elegance within.
Over the decades, the structure has evolved to accommodate modern needs while preserving its historical character. Notable additions include expansive bay windows, a recreation hall, and a two-story extension, all seamlessly integrated into the original design. Since 1904, when the Erie Club officially took over the mansion, it has served as a private social institution and a guardian of Erie’s heritage. Its inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places and its location within the West Sixth Street Historic District only underline its importance to the region.
Whether you’re visiting for business, a social gathering, or just a memorable meal, the Erie Club offers a rare combination of historic charm, culinary excellence, and unmatched ambiance. It’s a place where the past is beautifully preserved—but the experience feels very much alive.”
“Great food, people, and atmosphere! This was our first hibachi experience and we will definitely go here again.
*if you go in a group smaller than 8 people expect you may be sat with another group, as each grill has seating for 8-10 guest and the number of grills/cooks are limited.”
“First time there, really had no idea what expect. We decided to use Honey Baked for a small family Easter dinner.
I ordered on line, super easy. Chose the date and time to pick up, super easy. Showed up and found a bunch of smiling, happy people behind the counter. I handed them the QR code I got emailed to me and in about 4 minutes was on my way!
The dinner was delicious, ham and four sides, easy to prepare. Leftovers for sandwiches, breakfast, etc too. We already decided they will be our go to in the future. Thanks Honey Baked!”
“Rooms are great. Amenities are ample. Pool, Jacuzzi, Workout Room. Full service bar & restaurant.”
“I like the place and all the people I met and recently I enjoyed the first annual barstool bowling tournament at Eastland lanes and hope to participate in the tournament again next year.”
“Highly recommend!!! It was clean and the staff were friendly, always checking up on the party throwers to make sure the kids were comfortable and entertained. Was amazed at the ability for kids to play games by swiping your wrist bands instead of inserting coins. Very affordable…”
“My husband and I came here for the first time with our son for his birthday and his girlfriend. Waitress was AWESOME. Food was OUTSTANDING. Overall experience was a 10 star rating. We will definitely come back.”
“On 08/10/2025, a Friend & I had dinner here at Smugglers’ Wharf. The food was Amazing.The best Supper I’ve had in a long time. I give this Restaurant a 10.”
“Your food and service are top notch! Many guests made it a point to tell us how good the food was. My husband and I enjoyed our meal immensely. The bartender was also friendly and efficient. We appreciate you and cannot thank you enough for helping to make wonderful memories and lasting positive impressions for our loved ones. Everything about our daughter's wedding was just perfect. It's such a blessing to count on your professionalism and know we never needed to worry about a thing. We will pass along the good word of your services to everyone we know. 😉 Best wishes to you in your professional business! Mother of the Bride, Event 7/12/2024”
“The dinner, as always, was exceptional. Our entrees were prepared and presented beautifully. The restaurant is quiet and more of a high end establishment. The steak was as ordered- rare. We split a Caesar and it was served as split on two plate. The shrimp, scallops and pasta tasty. Chris our server was knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. Craig, the maitre d' stopped at our table to ensure all was well. LBV provided a perfect evening for us!”
“I always have an outstanding experience at this bar. The music was exceptional, the atmosphere was vibrant, and the overall energy was unmatched. A special commendation to the bartenders for their excellent service and to the security team for ensuring a safe and welcoming environment. The level of hospitality here is truly top-tier.”

“unfortunately, Sara's keeps on disappointing me. I loved this place. the oversimplified menu and change in ingredients leaves little to be desired. my visit today left me with an incorrect order. and even though it was their mistake, I had to go back to the register outside to reorder and pay again. all while holding my other order and 2 little kids. after I told the worker that this was a horrible way to treat a customer, she smirked and told me very sarcastically to have a good day. my gift card couldn't be honored because they don't have the scanners anymore, and my food had everything that I didnt want on it. do better.”

“We as a group of 11 came in over about a half hour waiting for the my daughter that ran the marathon. The gal serving us was sweet, she handled 6 different checks with one holding the wings for all. She had the cutest smile. It’s nice to see a person having fun while they do their job. Towards the end of our long stay I told her she did a great job and thanked her. I asked her name and she said Lexi. I felt like I met a friend as she smiled a huge smile so I threw her a kiss, she threw one back. Then she said thank you so much as she was scared as her first huge table. Boss man, hear me. Lexi is a charm. You treat her good and I’m sure she’ll have people coming back to get her smile and great service. When I come from Jamestown way for doctors visit, we will ge back. To see Lexi but the food was really good too! Date of visit: September 2025”

“I love this place so much! I order here about 2x a week and am always happy with my order. Never had a bad experience for the last months. Their food always tastes so good and fresh! The workers are super inviting and I'm happy to see that there's always a big amount of staff. Their rewards are always a score too!”
“Wonderful service and staff! My drink came out quickly and was great! The atmosphere leaves much to be desired. The bench and seats are pretty uncomfortable compared to other locations (the bench reminds me of Spirit Airlines...), but the staff is great and location is excellent!”
“Hannah, I enjoyed watching you craft my subs. I was able to pick up on a few things by watching you, as a previous GM/ RGM of a few establishments. First of all you ARE management. I knew before I asked you. The young man you were working with, (11/3 around 11am)although his shirt matched yours, he was unremarkable. He seemed to struggle with being motivated. He allowed food to cook on the grill and then went to the restroom. I hope he was okay. I know it can be difficult to work when one isn’t okay.
You, made many orders, simultaneously. You moved efficiently and with precision. I can tell you were waiting for the proper time to offer coaching, as You remained focused on the customer. You disengaged with the lackadaisical worker as silence is deadly. I have been in your position. Honestly, I wanted to go back, wash up, and clock in to help you, as I was watching the situation unfold! You were killing it all by yourself!
If I could offer feedback…. Smile and welcome each customer as they arrive, even if you are busy. Let the customer know you’re finishing up with another order. I knew what was going on by the “slip” laying on the counter what you were doing. I was not offended. Another customer, on the other hand, may feel ignored. Other than that, the restaurant was clean, the music was perfect, and I was so thankful for the Celsius!!!”
