Damenti's Restaurant

If I could give this place less than one star I would. The “ice bar” is $10 for admission to see some lame ice sculptures They are severely understaffed and we waited an hour for very simple drinks. Several in our party of 12 waited for 2 hours. There was a hostess who acted like the owner but really had no real authority. Drinks and food were not good at all. We will never be back. For fine dining prices I expect good service and food.

We had a little after wedding dinner celebration last week with a larger dinner party of 9 people. We had 2 amazing waitresses that I’m truly sorry I did not get their names, but they went above and beyond for our party. They even set up a separate table for my wedding cake and had to-go containers for our party to take cake with them. The food was amazing and the atmosphere clean and so nicely decorated.

Food was only okay. especially for the high price. Benito's in Hazleton makes a much better veal parmesan. This had too much breading to veal and the sauce was on the sweet side. And the sauce on my wife 's beef stroganoff was *WAY* too sweet. We had to switch halfway through or she wouldn't have eaten. The house Cabernet was very nice. Their famous blue cheese salad was nice as well. Overall, a disappointing anniversary experience that we won't be repeating. In all fairness, we have friends who absolutely love and recommend this restaurant. It is what it is.

We love going up to Damemti's. We go every time we're in Hazleton. The seared scallops were amazing and the meatloaf we get every time. You MUST try the shrip app. Safe to say we'll be back twice a year every year.

The staff is also wonderful. They always remember my grandmother by name and are so sweet to her and her guests.

We stopped by on the way to The Poconos. Found it randomly and boy were we lucky! The food was delicious and the service was exceptional. We all loved our meals. They had homemade applesauce that the kids said was better than ice cream! The owner came over to chat with us briefly and share a bit about the restaurants story. If you’re driving by you should be sure to stop in! We’ll be back!

This place has some of the lost unique decorations I've seen in a restaurant.

The balcony has a wonderful view of the valley.

Food was great. Service was great. It's a little pricy for the area but it was worth it imo.

Best restaurant experience I’ve had in a while. Warm and friendly staff, delicious food and drinks, charming atmosphere, and beautiful views. I live far away so I’m not sure when I’ll be back, but it won’t be soon enough.

The $50 strip steak was so tough and grisly I couldn’t put my fork in it. I was shocked. For such a decent looking place I was expecting a good steak. The steak came out cut into strips which I liked because that’s what higher end places do. I immediately noticed that the first three slices of this steak where all grisly and I pushed it aside. The middle of the steak was so tough I could barely chew it. I never send food back but $50 for this was not gonna happen. I ate one small piece and I was done. This chef should NOT have sent this out. Just for that reason I would never go there again, sorry to the owners but even the staff appeared to be embarrassed by that plate. Servers were great and I still tipped 20% of what the bill would have been. It’s not thier fault the kitchen let this fat piece of rubber hit a table. These are the reasons for my low ratings.

My husband had the best liver and onions he has had in a long time. Perfectly cooked he said. My shrimp parma was a nice portion and very good. Our server was very personable. We will return when we are in the area.
