“My family and I are from Utah and we was in Reading visiting my son in college. We randomly chose this place off Google and I'm glad we went here. The guys were very friendly and the food oh my goodness was amazing. The only thing was the pork chops were a little dry but everything else was amazing. We got the fried chicken, chicken wings, fried pork chops, Mac n cheese, greens and fries. No complaints from us other than the pork chops little mishap but would definitely eat here again. Keep up the great cooking gentleman“

Service is personal, atmosphere is comfortable. food tasted and looked more like home cooking so nothing fancy but still very good. Helps that it is low price.Parking: Limited parking so I'd guess that if it gets busy, might be hard to find a spot.“

“Like most steak houses on a Friday, there was a wait. It's was 20 minutes but always worth it. They sat us a party of 2 at a 6-person table. Got a full rack of ribs, was a lot of meat. Meal and service were on point. Just wish the tables were more separated. Had to listen to someone at the next table lick every finger. Just wish I could have more private experience.“

We had crab cakes for appetizers, the Mediterranean Salad with Chicken, and Burger Salad for entrees. And a Green beer for me, as it was St. Patrick's Day weekend. We hope to return again, maybe as soon as Trivia Night ?“

“Food: it was very tasty. However , my husband got the lobster Mac-n-cheese and gave it an “ok”. It lacked flavor. I had chicken primavera which I enjoyed but for the price I was hoping I’d actually get chicken in it. My father in law had 1 of the 3 that were available that evening pork chops special. he thoroughly enjoyed it. The food was good , the drinks were good but it seemed overpriced. Expect $16 cocktails. We still will go backService : our waitress offered to turn up lights for us. They also took off two of our desserts for our birthday dinner which was unexpected and generous.Atmosphere : it’s trendy , I love the decor , but it’s Dark !! We sat in corner and very little lighting . The waitress did offer to turn up lights but I didn’t want to bother everyone else’s experience . We still enjoyed our time and will go back“

Skylight is a family run restaurant that specializes in Latin American cuisine. There are a few Italian entrees on the menu too. The hostess was very friendly and welcoming. My wife had a grilled chicken Caesar salad and I had a marinated grilled skirt steak with a side of sweet plantains. We hadn’t had plantains before and they were wonderful. We shared the Tres Leches cake for dessert. The food was delicious and the service was friendly and helpful. I highly recommend Skylight Cafe.“

“Had a good meal here recently with some colleagues from work. They had a nice special going on with $15 giftcards for every $100 giftcard purchased, so that allowed me to save a bit on the total meal cost. You can't buy these online but they'll even let you purchase them before your meal, so that worked out well. Service was lacking a bit. We had a very long wait time until someone came to our table, and we had wine ordered and served before anyone had even taken our orders or served us bread. One of the proprietors was on wine duty and seemed determined to pour out the entire bottle rather than leaving it there for us, which I also found a bit odd. Overall the flavors of the food were good, but the staff were very much going through the motions, and our server never really engaged with us or asked us anything about why were there and while the dining room was busy, it wasn't so busy that we couldn't have been welcomed a bit more. When you have such a good wine list and such a nice property I expect the staff to be shining at service. Instead, I got the service I would have gotten at Chipotle, which is "good enough" there, but not here. I'll still probably be back, but if they don't knock it out of the park next time, I won't be. Too many other places I can give a shot to.“

Breakfast items are available all day :) There are multiple meat-free options. The falafel is one of my favorites. Today, I had a spinach feta pretzel wrap, and the braided soft pretzel was so good! I am especially called to this place in the colder months because there are so many comfort food options. The weekly specials add variety, but I always have a tough time choosing from the regular menu. I just really need to get here more often!!“

The vibe was cool, the server was super friendly and helpful, and the food and drink were excellent. Server said people love the Butternut Squash and Crab Soup - and they were right, it was very good. I also recommend the Fried Green Tomatoes - crispy but not overly breaded. The espresso martini was the best I’ve ever had. Perfectly mixed. Definitely check this place out.“

I am glad they place the sauce on the side because their wings are really delicious on their own. The fries were really good as well and they are not greedy in terms of how much they give. It was plenty. Also, don't get me started on the dessert we ordered...just perfection. Overall, the service was fast and everyone was kind.“

It was very busy but both the staff we interacted with were amazing and attentive and doing their best to get to everyone as quickly as humanly possible. As a bartender I notice those things so we waited a few minutes for a drink but not because they were not hustling and noticing who had been waiting a bit longer. The female bartender was lovely I didn't get her name but I complimented her hair and her curls and she took a moment to tell me how to do it myself..... She also got us our tab quickly so we could get to our show on time. Little things like that mean a lot thus the 5 stars across the board!! We will definitely be back soon for the wings????“
