Restaurants near Luzerne

“My son kept telling me he wanted us to try this restaurant as he lives in the area and he goes there often. It was a hike for us, but we decided to go try it out. There were 6 of us there, and everyone enjoyed their food, but I will speak to what we ordered. My son insisted we try the pizza as an appetizer. I am not really into pizza when I go out to a restaurant, so I was hesitant. When it came out, it was huge. I loved that it was very crisp on the bottom and it was not overloaded with sauce. It didn't have the typical cheese that slides off the pizza when you order it. The owner, Chris, came to check on us to see how we liked it. I thought it was fantastic, but there are a limited number made during the evening so I think you have to get there early. My daughter and I shared the bang bang cauliflower and that was very tasty. There was a lot of it so we ended up taking some of that home. The other appetizer we had were the soul scallops. We all thought this was an amazing appetizer and I loved the combination with the cornbread. We each had a salad before dinner and I personally like the spring mix with tomatoes. It wasn't an overly large salad, but it was a salad was what is was supposed to be: a precursor to dinner. With the portion sizes of the appetizers and the food, we actually ended up taking some of the salad home. My son got the Italian Chicken and Waffles, which was huge. I was give a taste of that and while it was a combination that I did not think would work, it was very good and a creative recipe. My husband had the Surf and Turf Fricassee and he is still talking about that almost a week later. It was a very nice dish and his steak came out the way he asked. He is frequently disappointed when he goes out to eat in other restaurants and is disappointed by how often the steak is overcooked. I had the Alfredo Bay, which again, was a large portion that I ended up taking home and finishing the next day. I was worried that it was going to be a bit too spicy with the Old Bay, but I liked the combination of ingredients so I thought I would give it a try. You can taste the kick, but it wasn't overwhelming thankfully. When talking to the owner, he said that the only dessert they were out of was the Tiramisu (which is one of my favorite desserts). His mom personally makes it so it tends to sell out. Chris.....tell your mother to make more (just kidding). The staff that we interacted with were very personable and friendly. While this was a little over an hour from home, we will definitely be back the next time we are visiting our son!”

“Mission BBQ catered our wedding, and we truly cannot recommend them highly enough! The food was absolutely amazing—delicious, fresh, and a total hit with all of our guests—but what really set them apart was their exceptional service. The team went above and beyond to make our day special. They prepared custom plates just for me and my husband, packaged up all the leftovers, and even left us a thoughtfully packed meal for the end of the night. Every detail was handled with such care and consideration, and it made the entire experience feel seamless and stress-free. Mission BBQ brought not only incredible food but also warmth, professionalism, and genuine hospitality. We’re so grateful for their role in our big day—it wouldn’t have been the same without them!”

“great food in a few years im gonna work there”

“Blessed & grateful to celebrate my son’s birthday dinner at Grico's! The Chef Bill crab cake and the Ribeye were outstanding! Such a welcoming team there too!”

“I went there today with my husband for a "date". We wanted something different. We were NOT let down! We came in the middle of a kids party and were welcomed and shown a seat even though they were overwhelmed with kids and their parents. I watched as they treated the kids AND parents with respect and laughter. Hard to do nowadays. The coffee is great! Husband had the Phantom and he was impressed. I will be back with my kids! It's scary enough to be interesting for adults but "fun" enough for even small kids. Nothing jumps out at you. Great place to find books by local authors.”
