“I saw a review on crypto investment that changed my story for good. I never believed it at first but after much convincing by my account manager in the person of Mrs Craig Vanessa I decided to give it a trial with just $5,000 even though there was a lower cost of investment. Starting with this, I made a profit of $35,500 in the first week. I am sharing this here for those that may have an interest. Mrs Craig Vanessa is genuine and her style of trade is unique. Completely top-notch and different from the rest. Contact her today and you will not regret it. Send her a DM on WhatsApp via the number on her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“

“Very good, upscale atmosphere.“

“Was a bit surprised… $5 for a lamb Gyro? It has to be bland or small or not good… something has to be wrong with it. But NOT AT ALL it was soo good. Man any time that I come to the steel shop down the street I am definitely coming here. Good job you guys.“

“I absolutely LOVE coming here, not only is the food great but, the service is AMAZING. My waitress Jackie was the BEST. She was so attentive and was SO fun to chat with, really made the experience memorable.“

“Very fast service, the creamed chipped beef is as delicious!“

“The Gute is the best pub in town. GREAT grub. Family friendly. Sports fan heaven. PHENOMENAL staff. The best bang for the buck in the Lehigh Valley. Every town in America should have a place like The Gute. But only we do…😎“

“Absolutely amazing food! Can’t believe we’ve passed this place so many times and never stopped in. Service was fast and friendly!“

“Thanks for helping us to make our 55th Class Reunion a success. The dinners were delicious and the management and serving staff were very helpful and accommodating . Greatly appreciated.“

“Christie and Julie were AMAZING!!! Not only are they fun, personable and so bubbly but they know recommendations for great food! By far the best part of Brew Works! Been coming here for almost 20 years and this will always be my first and favorite stop in Bethlehem.

Try the crème brûlée, the pots du crème and the stout brownie sundae are the perfect choices to end your meal on a very delectable and sweet note.“

“We just stopped here for breakfast while in Allentown. Well worth the drive past a few other diners. This quaint stop is cozy with a friendly staff. We had excellent service sitting at the bar. I had the Taylor Pork Roll sandwich with a hash brown patty. My wife had a dippy egg with their addictive home fries. Nice place.“

“Food is amazing no complaints everything that I’ve had so far is yummy lol“

“Such a beautiful restaurant. I love the cozy and quiet atmosphere. Food is fantastic as well!“

“The food was delicious! We'll be back!“

“Highly recommend! Great set up for parties, good food/drinks & the best staff.“

“It’s nice to be able to still live in an area that has a location! It’s clear that management works their tails off to ensure the restaurant is still in operation with excellent food safety and customer service practices. Despite this, I hadn’t been in a while but since I was at the Velodrome, I decided to stop and get a Sundae. I felt like a kid all over again. The Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Sundae is every bit as good as I remembered. The peanut butter sauce is fantastic. I wish they sold in jars but if they did there would be no reason to go to Friendly’s so I get why they don’t. It was also great to get it for free for being a rewards member.“

“Madeline's is a great, affordable choice if you're looking for a lovely venue for a special event! We held our wedding ceremony and reception (for 60 guests, but they can accommodate more) in the restaurant’s upstairs banquet facility. From the start of planning to the day of the wedding, both event coordinators provided incredible attention for every detail of the event: the timing and setup of the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and a special private area for the bride. The banquet facility is wheelchair-accessible, spacious, and has plenty of natural light. There’s also an outside terrace. We had a number of guests with different dietary preferences and needs, including one with severe food allergy concerns. The coordinators were especially understanding of this. Before we chose a menu or signed a contract, they made a special effort to contact the guest with food allergies, and asked specific questions to be sure the menu and venue would be safe. They helped us to feel confident that there wouldn’t be any problems from the allergens of concern, and they worked closely with us on a creative menu that everyone would enjoy. The food was superb! Both event coordinators were present on the day of the event. Everything ran smoothly, and we and our guests really enjoyed it! The entire staff was courteous and attentive, and it was a joyful, memorable day. We look forward to going back for dinner!“

“We booked a rehearsal dinner last week for 25 guests. My experience started with working with Cindy on the menu and where we would be seated. The banquet menu they provided more than exceeded our expectations. Cindy provided all the help we needed to make the dinner and our guests feel warmly welcomed. The evening went very smoothly and the staff provided the utmost professional service. And on top of everything the food was delicious and beautifully served from the beginning to dessert. The prime rib was the hit of the night. We received nothing but praises from our guests. Thank you to all including the bartender, chefs, wait staff and Cindy for making our part of the wedding celebration so extraordinary. We will be returning!“

“On the way to Becky’s Drive In we discovered this restaurant. I can’t express how much we loved it. The wait staff were attentive, caring and informative on specials and menu items. The draft list was extensive, including local favorites as well as seasonal specials. There is a whole candy bar dedicated to toppings for their cocktails and sangria flights(love). I had the rosemary French onion soup & sriracha ranch chicken wings with local honey added to the sauce. The soup was hands down the best I have ever had and the wings were cooked perfectly and coated in sauce. I loved my time here!“

“Absolutely the best hotdogs in the area! Just delicious! Friendly Hometown customer service as well! Highly recommend it!

“10/10. super clean and amazing selection of goodies! I join my aunt just for the trip to this place. (I'm that weirdo.)“

“We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience at ZEST on 2-22-25. It started at the bar with Travis & Justine. Very friendly, attentive, and welcoming bartenders. They explained the drink and dinner menu and answered our questions. Our server for dinner was Emily and she was amazing! Friendly and attentive not only to us, but to the tables around us! She made sure drinks were refilled and that we received fresh cutlery when our entrees arrived. We were very pleased and will be back again! Thank you ZEST!“

“I have been staying at the Hyatt since it opened several years ago and dining at the Westside Grill on every stay. I frequent this hotel and am more than just a guest, bordering on being a resident due to my frequent travel into the Lehigh Valley. As a Globalist with Hyatt I cannot say enough good about the hotel and the Westside Grill. After having dinner there again this evening and having another outstanding experience I feel compelled to write this review. The dining room management of the Westside Grill is exceptional with Eileen, the Manager, doing an exceptional job. She is a walk around manager very visible in the dining room, greeting customers, and ensuring they are having a great dining experience. This evening I had the pleasure of having Deanna as my server and she did an outstanding job as well. Both Eileen and Deanna are very attentive insuring that the customer is well taken care of and not wanting for anything. I cannot say enough GOOD about this restaurant. It is top shelf, great abidance, exceptionally clean, supported by a full service bar and an exceptional menu and wine list. The Westside Grill has been consistent in service, quality, and presentation of food since I began dining there while staying at the hotel. I strongly recommend the Westside Grill for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for an exceptional dining experience. I bring often business associates with me for morning, afternoon, and evening business discussions at the Westside Grill and have never been disappointed. Both the Westside Grill and Hyatt Hotel have a great staff that are always wanting to make your dining experience and stay exceptional and memorable. It makes you want to come back!!! Finally, 5 Stars is not enough, it should be more like 10. Both the service and the meals at the Westside Grill are consistent always providing an exceptional dining experience.“

“If you’re down on your luck it’s a great place to live. Jeep Cherokee has been living here for 2yrs. An rv has been here for about a year and nobody bothers you. This morning there were 8 cars that have been living there for the last week. No police activity and if they do come they are just here to say hello. They have informed that Cracker Barrel doesn’t have a problem with it so enjoy an extended stay. YOU DON’T EVEN NEED TO SPEND A DOLLAR INSIDE. Throw trash on ground and the neighbors will pick it up Free living with no consequences. We travel with a camper trailer and have done overnights in our trailer but this is an abuse of the kindness of Cracker Barrel. These people are living here rent free. Neighbors don’t know who these people are“

“We keep coming back for more! Great shrimp n grits- cornbread (the best!) Awesome atmosphere - a gem of a place. Awesome taste of New Orleans here in Bethlehem PA!“

“Thank you, HOPS Fogelsville for a great Remembrance Dinner for our Son, Mike, on 2/7/25. We had a great time enjoying your delicious food, cozy room, friendly atmosphere, great waitresses, and more. Thank you to Carol H. for the ease of setting up this dinner! We hope we can have Mike’s Remembrance Dinner here every year in February! We were happy we filled the room with Mike’s family and great friends! Thank you for making sure we had a great dinner and evening! 💙❤️“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ five stars food is amazing“

“I love the “Deck” because I can bring my dog and they welcome dogs. Service is always good and the food always is tasty“

“Brittany was so much fun. She was quick, and very friendly. The food, as always was absolutely phenomenal. Worth the hour trip. Its only our second visit but well worth it.
Try the pizza. So fresh! The sushi is delicious. And listen to your waitress for your desserts. They know best!“

“Out of all the eateries in the greater Slatington area, SMT has got to be the highest of my recommendations. the place is absolutely fantastic, in both food and service. Not only is it a rustic bar complete with trivia nights and a pool table, but everything is delicious and always served with the highest priority of the customer's requests. The service is perfect, as well. always friendly and accommodating. they all periodically check up on tables, they're known to stop for a quick chat without ignoring their other patrons, and they're completely genuine. For those going, I recommend asking for Kerri. I've had several servers over my visits, all are great, but Kerri has simply been the best. It's at a point where I dont even have to order because she knows exactly what im getting. It's clear she puts her customers first, and it shows. overall, an excellent establishment.“

“Great place, great service. Awesome food and drinks.“

“Hosted a few parties here and the establishment is very clean, fresh looking and great atmosphere. Food is amazing and Jim is always willing to make your occasion special. He works with you and ensures you have all that you need for your big day. We held a Anniversary party, 2 birthday parties and been to a few there as well. I would highly recommend Linx for your next occasion.“

“Absolutely love their food! Highly recommend to anyone if you haven’t tried their pizza, you most definitely should!“

“Affordable and delicious! Just had some Korean BBQ with a fantastic little kick to em’ - oh, and the fries were crispy, and nicely seasoned… We ordered this through DoorDash, and it came hot. Mashed potatoes were unreal. The southwest nachos, go for the nachos, fresh and loaded with goodness.“

“I went last night because I was staying in the attached hotel. The place does seem to be lightly staffed, but the person who served me was perfectly polite and nice. I had, unenthusiastically, planned to order a hamburger and fries, but the server talked me into having the French Onion Soup and Chicken Caesar Salad instead. I'm so glad she did.The Chicken Caesar was delicious, but it was far overshadowed by the soup. The soup was simply delicious. I will probably be talking about it for quite a while.“
