“On September 5th, a friend and I attended an event at The Leaf Restaurant in Easton. Years ago, in the pre-COVID era, The Leaf was the finest cigar restaurant in Pennsylvania and on par with any in the Northeast. Its food rivaled the best restaurants in the Lehigh Valley, and its cigar events were nothing short of epic—it was a place of undeniable class and sophistication. While there were a few times over the years when the pressure to lower the quality of the menu or service was disappointing, it never completely lost its appeal.COVID unfortunately drove many restaurants out of business. When The Leaf later brought in an outside barbecue vendor—whose name I won't mention—the establishment hit a new low. There are several excellent barbecue vendors in the Lehigh Valley, but this was certainly not one of them. However, after learning that the internal kitchen had finally reopened, I decided to give it another try.Upon arrival, my friend and I bought some cigars in the shop and expected to see signage for the evening's event. There was none. When I asked the shop staff about the event, they didn't even seem aware of it. We then wandered into the restaurant, which also lacked any signage. Fortunately, we were greeted by our waitress, Nicki C., who proved to be an absolute gem throughout the evening.The Famous brand cigars paired with the Four Roses bourbon were superb. We eventually moved outside to escape the trivia night, which was a bit too distracting for a conversation. For dinner, we both ordered the Sweet Bourbon Chicken sandwich, and it was excellent—the crusting was done to perfection. I also had the Truffle Parmesan fries, which were quite good.It is truly unfortunate that the event was not better promoted, resulting in a low turnout. I tipped heavily because Nicki absolutely deserved it; it is vital for a restaurant to remember that waitstaff can make or break the dining experience. I also asked to speak with Chef Corina Werkheiser to compliment her directly. Her execution and ingenuity with the menu were highly impressive. The Leaf's manager, Emily Stenger, also stopped by our table to gather our feedback, and I was deeply impressed by her frankness, positive attitude, and determination.I sincerely hope that the owner, Arthur, recognizes the two gems he has on his team and gives them his full support. While it will take significant effort for The Leaf to regain the elite status it once held, they can absolutely achieve greatness again if they continue down the quality-driven path that Stenger and Werkheiser have started.“
“very nice free entertainment with great bands however when a large crowd is there no tables can be reserved or even are available to sit at. it should be in a larger area of the casino.“

“We had a great time at Edge! Incredible drinks made by Adam and enjoyed the banter with Adam and Devin (the other bartender). My husband and I were out for a date night, we had dinner first there and then moved to the bar for a nightcap. We had so much fun and appreciated the conversations. Highly recommend Edge! The creamy expresso martini is unbelievable!“

“Always a great experience at Miguel's! The food is outstanding and Chef Miguel is very creative in making unique and special entrees. His sauces are done of the best ever - especially anything with cantabria. The filet is superb. Mussels in saffron sauce - stupendous! Cocktails are expertly crafted and delicious. Even on a busy night, the service is always spot on. Especially if Michele is there - which she normally is. Love the decor - the old hotel has character and the long old fashioned bar even has hooks for your purse ... This is venue is fun and worth a visit if you have not tried it.“
