50 Best American Restaurants near Strasburg

“Enjoyed dinner with friends. Brittanie was our waitress. Very good!! The chef was accommodating to a slight change replacing a regular burger on a salad instead of a beyond burger option of protein add on. Burger was delicious!!“

“My wife and I love going there. Friendly staff. Amazing food.“

“Amazing!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re anywhere near Leola, do yourself a favor and stop into Gracie’s On West Main. From the moment we walked in, the staff stood out. You can tell they’re incredibly well-trained—not in a stiff, scripted way, but in a way that feels genuine. They welcomed us as if they knew us for years and were eager to share the story behind the café, which made the whole experience feel personal instead of transactional. The food absolutely delivered. Everything came out fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. And the bacon? Honestly, next level. Perfectly cooked, packed with flavor—easily some of the best I’ve had anywhere. This is one of those places that gets it right across the board: great people, great atmosphere, and food that actually lives up to the hype. We’ll definitely be back when we are in the area!“

“We loved Passerine! The branzino was fabulous! The ribeyes were perfect! Loved the mushroom soup and pate! And the specialty cocktails were full size and delicious. It was a great night with friends!“

“love their truck at local events! great ice cream stop, great for family/ kids“

“It was great experience.Food and drinks were delicious. Staff is friendly and food was coming out quickly and right. I would really recommend butternut squash and lobster bisque soup 😋. We had mushroom pasta and shrt ribs. It was absolutely out of this world. It was crowded and loud a little on Sunday night. Reservation is a must.“

“I have tried just about every restaurant in Lancaster County and Dienners ranks #1 hands down against the rest. They might have a much larger selection of food but when it comes to quality , customer service and atmosphere this establishment ranks #1. Keep up the good work and service folks and we will continue to support you every time we are out that way. 💯 Mark Zambanini, Somerset County , PA.“

“First visit and was impressed“

“Had the best time at Reflections Restaurant to celebrate my dads retirement. I have a almost three year old with that said this place was just so nice going in at 3pm - we had a little area to ourselves and the food was amazing. I never order a pork chop anywhere as well ya... lol but thanks to this page ans what i read on reviews it was by far the best meal i had in a long time. My girl ordered the pizza didnt touch any of it as she was too busy eating my pork chop and her grand parents yummy meat loaf and truffle mac and cheese All of us left stuffed and happy It was just too darn yummy ! Thanks for the memories -“

“We had dinner with some friends!! Three of us got the pork chop and it was wonderful! Another friend had the Beef Wellington and she said it was delicious! Everyone was kind and serving to us.“

“awesome food friendly waiter. very friendly“

“We had an excellent experience at Lancaster Brewing. We haven’t been there for a few years because we live several hours away, but went out of our way to go today and it was even better than we remembered. Lindsey was our server and was so incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. The food was quick and high quality, and we were very impressed with the craft cocktails. We will look forward to the next time we can enjoy a meal here!“

“This is our very favorite restaurant, however due to a very large crowd this evening, we had to sit at the bar. It was nice at first. But our waitress/bartender was a bit rude to us and didn't even check on how our meals came out, offer more beverages, refills and did not offer dessert. We usually tip very well but didn't this time. The crowd had really dispersed by the time we had our meals so there was really no excuse for the bad service. We will continue to go back of course becasue we love it there but hoping for a better experience.“

“What a great place we stumbled upon today for lunch! Excellent service, ambience, delicious food, drinks and dessert! We will definitely be back with friends. This place needs to be shared! Thanks for a great dinning experience. A special thank you to Kensie, you were awesome! ❤️“

“My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at this quaint pub with its sports bar feel. From its delectable beer menu to its delicious pub style food menu, everything was done well! We loved the staff who were very welcoming and engaging. We received recommendations and tastings! Best of all, the prices are reasonable. I would highly recommend eating and chilling here alone, with friends, with family, or with your boo.“

“Everyone here is pleasant. There are a lot of activities here for the residents. I come here to help some clients and they all love it here.“

“We come from Maryland to go to Dottie's Snack Bar. We missed them when they were closed. We are so glad they are back and still as a family run small business. My favorite thing is a strawberry sundae. The ice cream is great! So are the steak subs. Welcome back Dottie's.“

“Penley's Pub is a recent addition to Dutch Wonderland. It's the first restaurant inside the park that serves alcohol and they have a great selection of local beers. They also have a few food options focusing on pretzels and sausages. The prices are decent given that it's inside an amusement park.“

“The three of us went for a late lunch and even though we had to wait about 20-25 minutes to get a seat, the staff for the most part were really friendly. One of the waitresses has been there for a long time and is always super friendly to my mom and I. Food came out fairly quickly and tasted wonderful“

“We stayed on a summer weeknight and had a great experience! The grounds are beautiful with tons of photo opportunities and peaceful walking trails. We stayed in the Carriage House—very clean rooms with their own parking, and just a short, easy walk to the main hotel. The complimentary breakfast buffet for guests was a highlight—especially the made-to-order omelettes, which were absolutely delicious! The shops on-site are super cute, and the pool and playgrounds kept the kids happily entertained. A relaxing, family-friendly getaway—we’d definitely stay again!“

“We enjoyed dinner for the first time here. The atmosphere is so fun. You eat dinner inside a real train! They also have outside seating. We enjoyed watching the Strasburg railroad train go by, pet the animals (outside at the barn), amazing staff, fun gift shop and absolutely incredible food! We have not had such an incredible meal in a long time at a restaurant.“

“Outstanding service. Excellent Diner style food, served hot. Follow the locals and you cant go wrong .“

“I have been wanting to bring my family to dinner here for quite some time, and finally we made it over last night. The 40-minute drive was so well worth it, we were not at all disappointed! The food was exceptional, great prices and quality, presentation. and the nostalgic atmosphere really brought it all together. All of the food my family ordered was perfectly cooked and the portions are spot on. From the steak to the burger, to my liver and onions! I also have to add that if you like wings, well you MUST get them. I travel all around the country and all around the globe for my Equestrian Business, Sensory Soundness, and let me tell you, your senses will be overjoyed! The wings here are at the top tier level! I got the Old Bay dry rub, and I highly recommend! The staff are all great, work as a team, and our server Becca was just wonderful. Great Job by all, we will be back!!“

“We had a group of 28 for dinner and drinks. The staff handled our group like pros! Yes, we had a little extra wait time with such a large group which was to be expected, but the crew was on top of our drink service and checked back frequently to follow up on our needs. No easy task serving so many at once- Carmen and Johanna were on top of things and Jess was thrown into the fire with it being her first night on the job - you would have never known.! Everyone was happy with their meals, great food and friendly service.
The complimentary pretzel bites are always a favorite!“

“My wife and I came here for our anniversary. The restaurant experience felt like we were trully guests being taken care of. The food was delicious and artistically put together. Our server, Matthew, was the best. He really felt like a part of the experience, and someone who took pride in his work. Thank you Gibraltar for a wonderful evening. We will definitely be returning and hope to have Matthew again as our server!!“

“Spring/summer/early fall Friday night live band nights are always fun. Recently discovered the Birds Nest Deck to watch the Eagles games and I won’t watch them anywhere else now. I believe there has been a change of ownership since the past (2021) and I definitely think they are moving in the right direction.“

“We had an excellent meal here. I especially enjoyed the fried chicken but everything I had was delicious.“

“My husband and I were on a small getaway and discovered this treasure. I am an ice cream lover and must tell you that this is hands down the BEST ice cream I ever had. My husband profoundly agrees! He wanted to go again before we left but it wasn’t possible. We’re already trying to plan another trip down just to go to Fox Meadows. Also, the staff was so friendly. The you g woman who waited on us was extremely friendly and provided us samples to try. Since it was our first visit we were also given a free beverage each! We 💯 percent recommend!!!!!“

“A+ food and friendly, thanks!“

“First time dining experience for my husband and I Nice staff Great food Loved the nostalgia Great atmosphere to get away from the normal chain food eateries Sometimes we need to slow down and take in the small things of life to appreciate all that God has given us.“

“Love this restaurant! The crap cakes are so good! So much crab meat!! The grilled steak kabobs are the best! It quickly became one of my favorite restaurants!“

“Parking: Arthur's Terrace Restaurant is located in The Eden Resort Hotel, Best Western, Eden Road, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where there is plenty of parking.

Wheelchair accessibility: Restaurant is located in a hotel where there is a hotel lobby.“

“Amazing food and service! The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Bravo manager and team! Amazing food, great drinks. Will come back again. Highly recommend. Cheers“

“Great service & great food!“

“This was our first visit to the Fulton Steamboat Inn after a family recommended it—and it was such a fun experience! I mean, who wouldn’t want to sleep on a steamboat? The rooms have so much charm and felt slightly updated while still keeping that cozy, themed feel. Everything was super clean, and the grounds were beautifully maintained. The kids loved the playground and pool, and we all enjoyed strolling around the little lake—especially spotting all the baby ducks! The only downside was that breakfast isn’t included. We didn’t try the on-site restaurant, but there are plenty of great local spots nearby. Overall, a fun and memorable stay—highly recommend!“

“I held a private luncheon on a Saturday afternoon for 30 people. Mick responded promptly when I made an online inquiry. The room and food were prepared to perfection. The service was excellent, the room and tables were clean, and the food was delicious. It was nice to have the outdoor area for the little kids to get a break and play. We had reserved the room for two hours, and some guests were slow to leave. The staff was patient and did not rush us out the door. I highly recommend Mick’s in Willow Street.“

“I've eaten here a number of times and, I think they switched over to using smash burgers so, two patties is recommended. Today, they had our hamburgers sitting on the counter getting cold until the fries were done, Bummer. Fries were good.“

“I only recently tried Mick's and I loved it. Love the pizza in particular. Typically, when I try a restaurant with only one or two items I will eat. As someone with severe food sensory issues, I love that there are so many items on the menu that I can eat! Pizza is my go-to but I am branching out and trying other dishes. I haven't tried anything I didn't like yet. Loving the Shepherds Pie today!!!“

“We come to this restaurant often when we are in Pa camping. We love their Crab Bisque and shrimp special that is served on Thursday's. It's really good! Going tonight to try their pot pie. Great place to check out when in the area.“

“Cute little shop. Very good pretzels. Had the cinnamon sugar and it was delish and warm. Husband had the garlic and he said it had good flavor but very garlic and my daughter had regular with cheese sauce and said it was good. The girls workimg where nice and efficient. The place is very clean and smells amazing. Would go again when up this way.“

“While I like most of Stoltzfus’s items, I’ve been disappointed in their chicken salad. It used to be a staple in our home but seems like they’ve changed the recipe. It’s now so runny with mayo (or whatever they use) that it plops right off our sandwiches. They’ve also seem to cut back on the celery which added a nice contrasting crunch. Please bring back the old recipe.“

“I went there with a group of 6. Easy reservations just a few hours earlier, good food, cool decor. We were in the indoor dining room on first floor. Very loud group next to us, so towards the end of our dining conversation had become nearly impossible. Good reviews on their soda bread, shepherd's pie, and classic fish & chips! Definitely recommend their cheesesteak egg rolls as well!“

“Had a nice lunch with the girls! Our server Bri was friendly and prompt! Enjoyed the toys!“

“Great food, friendly staff, and the salad bar has pickled eggs and beets.👍👍 We live in the suburbs of Harrisburg and we stop there to eat when we visit the area about 2x a month. Keep up the good work.“

“Eat here almost everyday! Food and Service are great!“

“We got General tos, Cajun, hot, and sudden death for an extra $10 which equates to $16.25 for 5 wings . Sudden death wings are extremely hot & impossible to eat more than one . It tastes good , but you can barely taste them due to how hot they are . They definitely are NOT worth the extra money at all & I do not recommend them . However, the other wings were Delicious! Our favorites out of the 4 was hot . It’s a very tasty hot sauce & not a typical hot sauce . They were nice & crispy and pick up was a breeze . Thank you guys so much, but you can keep those sudden death wings 😂“

“Had the pleasure of lunching at Miller's last week on our Lincoln Highway road trip! Food was good and staff was nice!“
