The space was perfect, everyone raved about the food and cake (some people said it was the best cake they’ve ever had!), The servers were awesome, they made sure everyone had what they needed and did a great job keeping things organized and clean throughout! I would recommend parties here to any of my friends and family! Everything was exactly what I wanted!!“

“We celebrated our 50th anniversary at this particular Chop House in Exton. Excellent service, incredible food, delicious beverages. We ordered appetizers, and specialty drinks, our server Orville was so attentive and definitely knew the menu. The general manager, Maureen stopped by to wish us a happy anniversary and make sure everything was as it should be. The service and food exceeded our expectations, it always does. Maureen seems to be an amazing role model to her staff, she is the manager, but you definitely find her with “hands on”, it’s incredibly obvious how much respect they have for her. Our main entree was prepared perfectly. Dessert was not only perfect in presentation it was delicious! I cannot say enough about this location. From the time you are greeted by the hostess till it’s time to leave, you are made to feel special. Chop House in Exton, Pa you are the BEST!❤️“

We all agreed that it was some of the best pasta we have ever had. And the antipasti, caesar salad and cheesecake were also amazing. Thank you Bar Avalon for a wonderful meal and your generous offering for a good cause.“

“I had gnocchi bolognese, my husband had penne with Pesto and mozzarella (burrata). The waitress was really nice and we had a great meal!!!“

“I had a private party (20 Guests) on a Saturday afternoon. Everything went PERFECT! Olivia Karlin was an amazing host and event organizer! She informed me that I needed to pick three meals and two starters for my menu. I had the room for 2 hours and it was so much fun! Checking out was easy and everything went the way we planned it. Would definitely recommend!!“

“I am not a huge fan of the food but I have had pleasant visits and enjoy sitting at the bar upstairs. Bartenders are friendly and drinks are good. Also nice they have plenty of TVs for when sports are on.

I’m not quite sure what people are expecting from the downstairs bar given it’s known for being a college scene. Upstairs is good.“

“Very comfortable spot to dine if you're staying at The Desmond or in the neighborhood. delicious entrees, friendly and attentive staff.“

“Visited to prepare for an upcoming event and decided to have dinner. The service from the time I was seated was best in class. My hostess Cheryl was so friendly and professional getting me settled at my table. My server Mr. Relace was absolutely amazing. I had a few items from the menu. Baby back ribs with sweet potato fries, Atlantic Salmon with seasonal vegetables. A nice potato soup with Prosciutto garnish. The cocktails were poured generously. To top things off I had bread pudding soaked in Markers burbon with French vanilla ice cream. The entire experience was priced very well and I recommend as a hidden gem for fine dining.“

“delicious food and great service 😋“

“I had the best time at Paladar! Right when I entered the doors, I was greeted by the nicest host, she had red hair and was so friendly!! When I sat down, the server was kinda hitting on me, but it's okay, the service was great, and we had a delicious dinner! The guac was my favorite, omg 10/10 would recommend!!!!“

“First time at Rosalie we all ordered salads and pizza they were all delicious and the deserts were really good! We sat in lobby and loved the entertainment!! Would definitely come again“

“VK Brewing Co. & Eatery is doing it right! I give them 10 stars! I’m now addicted to their Orange Shady, which has quickly become my favorite beer. After a month of consistently going back pretty much daily, I can confidently say it’s the best local brewpub/eatery you’ll find!
Tom is 1 of 1 – he’s one of the best bartenders with a personality you’ll appreciate. His friendly and engaging demeanor makes every visit a pleasure. I could sit and chat with Barry for hours – it’s dangerous! The team are a family and it shows! The atmosphere is always welcoming, and the staff goes above and beyond to ensure a great experience.
If you’re in Exton, PA, and looking for a fantastic place to enjoy some top-notch brews and delicious food, VK Brewing Co. & Eatery is the spot. Highly recommend!“

“BOMBA is right up there with some of the great street taco spots you might find in Brooklyn, the Bronx or Queens, or even down in Dallas, or Austin.

The only thing I didn't appreciate was that for Taco Tuesday, it wasn't marked on the menu, there wasn't a list available, of which tacos were included. I had to flag down my waiter and ask him.

Otherwise, like I said, one of the great spots to have a street taco in a sit-down restaurant vibe. If you don't know, now you know.“

“Drinks were good and food was great!!“

“My sister and I took our mother here for her birthday this past Saturday. LOVED! the food and the service was great. Our waiter (Jason) was so nice he was so pleasant. The food was delicious! And the owner was very nice. Great place overall.“

“we went to the Shebeen after a show at the theatre on Sunday 12/22. our initial experience was not great -we had major problems with our server who started out with us not taking a drink order and things being ordered incorrectly, and an all around bad attitude. After asking to speak to a manager, Demi came to our table, spoke to us and switched our server for the evening. She made a bad experience turn out to be a wonderful evening. everthing about her was fantastic! she accomodated all our requests and went above and beyond. Thank you Demi and we will definitely be back.“
