Excellent experience for our 54th Anniversary. Server was engaging and helpful. Food was tremendous! I have the 8oz filet. Meld in your mouth good with amazing sauces. Duck was well prepared and both presentations were wonderful.
Excellent starter, salad, soup, entree and dessert along with excellent service! Will definitely go again!
We have been to Josephine's several times and we do enjoy it there. This most recent trip did not feel as upscale as we have come to expect. The service was mediocre, we waited a long time to order drinks and then a while to order dinner, our salad plates sat empty in front of us for a while before they were taken away, we were not offered more bread, etc. Everything was efficient, but not what I have come to expect from Josephine's, or anywhere else at this price point for that matter. The food was good, though $17 for a relatively small caesar salad seems excessive to me. We do enjoy Joesphine's quite a bit and we are regulars at the Belvedere, so we are likely to be back, but this visit did not meet my expectations, especially for the price.
Wonderful meal as always. We tried the sea bass appetizer this time and it was incredible.
Our first (and not the last) experience at this fine restaurant. Delicious food, really cool ambience and decor, kind and prompt service. 10/10
I love everything about my experience at Josephine and my server Brandon was amazing. He knows what he's doing. He gave me a top tier service for my solo birthday date. Thank you again
Kyle made amazing drinks and was an attentive server. Always an A+ experience at Josephine's.
Hands down best place in Lancaster County by far

Visited for my wife’s birthday and everything was amazing! Our waiter Tate was awesome, extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. His recommendations were spot on! I had the squash soup and rack of lamb and both were incredible. My wife was also very happy with the Caesar salad and the salmon which was cooked perfectly. Vanilla crème brûlée was a perfect end to the night. See you again soon!

Food and drinks were excellent. The ambiance was perfect. We had a nice quiet table in a corner to celebrate our 46th wedding anniversary. They even inserted a special card congratulating us by name .

We had the pleasure of being invited to a special wine pairing dinner...and every single course, the hospitality and service was amazing. Flavors, presentation and pairing were better than we could've imagined. We will definitely be back.

A favorite of mine when planning a special evening out. From the call they make the day before the reservation to inquire if there's a special occasion to being greeted and seated and all points of service well covered, Josephine's is one of the best.
We visited Josephine’s on a Friday night for the first time and it was truly amazing. We didn’t know what to expect going in, but from start to finish, everything was perfect — the food, the service, and the warm, romantic atmosphere.
Our server, Kyle, was wonderful and made sure we had a special date night. Every dish we tried was outstanding, and the flavors were so well balanced. Do not miss out on the honeynut squash soup — it was absolutely incredible and one of the best soups I’ve had anywhere.
We’ll definitely be back soon. Highly recommend Josephine’s for anyone looking for a memorable, elevated dining experience!

What a fantastic dinner! The service was spot on and cocktails were just perfect. The live piano music was just a nice addition to our meal.
