“Definitely best money I have spent finally some good boba as well! I have the passion fruit tea with passion popping boba. The service was also good very friendly. The food was AMAZING nothing disappointed. I’m allergic to seafood and she took the time to answer my question. So just know there are options for people like me.i will be bringing my family back.”
“I went yesterday March 29,2024 at 5:20 pm with my son and girlfriend it was a Great experience. We chose one of the igloos it was really comfy and beautiful. The waitresses and bartenders were attentive and we really felt Welcome. We will be going back! 100% recommended! ❣️We loved everything; The waitresses are very attentive, happy, helpful and make you feel welcome. The atmosphere is excellent, the food is delicious and the place is very nice.We recommend it 100%.”
“I brought my family here for dinner and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The food and service were outstanding. Great hospitality, desserts were superb and they have their coffee, tea and turkisg delights for sale for you to bring home as well. I highly recommend this place and we look forward to going back again soon!”
“This place is very good! I was told this place was Uruguayan and I was looking for some nice food in the area. I myself am from Uruguay and was curious to see if the meals would taste like authentic Uruguayan food. The quality of the food is pretty good, but I wouldn’t say all of the tapas resemble that Uruguayan flavor (such as the chorizo, which was pretty good, but definitely not Uruguayan flavor-wise). The milanesa, however, was extremely good, and close to what it would taste like in my country. But trust you can’t leave this place without getting dessert- I think the tiramisu could be my last meal on earth, no problem. I had the chance to speak to the chef as well, and she was very sweet! The place is small but cozy, has private parking, the service is great, and the prices are very reasonable. I’ll definitely be back!”
“This place will always hold a special place in my heart as it was where I proposed to my girlfriend. Every time since then we have had such a great experience. I believe it truly stems from the management. On every occasion, the manager has come out to check on our meals and just share some small talk. It always sets the tone for a very pleasant experience. The food is by far the best in the region. We had the steak and the roasted chicken during our last visit and it was truly delicious. The in house tiramisu and cocktails are also top notch. If you’re looking for an excellent dining experience with great staff this is your spot.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“Excellent Thai restaurant. For some reason, I can't get the Som Tum salad (papaya salad) anywhere where I now live (DE), so I always come here when I'm in town to get it. It's delicious and they throw 3 or 4 shrimp on top of it. Thai Ice Tea is refreshing and delicious and Chicken Pad Thai is supreme. Enough portions to get 2 or 3 meals out of it. I love this place!!! Highly recommend!!!”
“Ask for Eric the bald bartender! Fantastic service and food was amazing!! Steak & lobster was by far the best lobster I ever ate. Highly recommend trying the blooming chicken. Just from the exceptional service alone, we will be back soon! 6 stars to Eric!”
“We had a great dinner with another couple. We tried several items absolutely love the peach and Barada salad and was super surprised at how good their pizza was considering it's not a pizza joint. Service was very attentive, prices were fair and it's really a neat restaurant. We love the atmosphere. We will definitely be going back soon.”

“We stopped here on a whim to grab some BBQ...man were we blown away by everthing this place is. Amazing service, good food(get the brisket), and and overwhelimg support to America and those who fought/fight for our country. We for sure will be making this a routine stop whenever we come down.”

“Traveled through the area and got takeout based on the Google reviews, and we were not disappointed. Online ordering was so convenient, pickup was fast and easy, and the staff were very friendly. The chimichangas were absolutely delicious. We got them fried with chicken. We also got the 3 combo with enchiladas and tacos and preferred the chicken enchiladas. Our order came with a ton of chips and delicious salsa. I'm so glad we found this gem ? also so affordable! We will be back!”
“Authentic Mexican food — SO fresh! The salsa is amazing and there is a big variety of tacos prepared with traditional Mexican ingredients. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. I had several questions about some items on the menu I was unfamiliar with- I learned a lot! Portion sizes are very generous -including the $7 Happy Hour Margaritas, which are made with fresh squeezed lime juice. No mixers here! My husband’s comment when we first tasted our food: “they definitely don’t take short cuts here”. This is a great addition to downtown WB - can’t wait to go back!”

“This place is fantastic! Don’t let the small, corner location keep you away. I ordered this 5 hoagie platter for my birthday party and it was a huge hit with my family. This made it so much easier than ordering individual sandwiches for everyone. They slice the roll twice longways, leaving a barrier between the meat and veggies. It’s a brilliant idea that keeps the ingredients nicer longer. We will definitely be going back for more!”
“The food quality was very good.Unfortunately, the portion is smaller than what it seems on the advertisement videos, but the taste and flavor is superfection.Definitely should try it but always ask for more.Thank you very much carne y queso”
“Over two years of coming here, and I have never been disappointed. The guys running the truck are always so kind! The proportions are huge for $10! It always tastes great. I have to stop myself from driving here constantly. You must try this food! I always get lamb over rice!”
“Our high school hockey team traveled to Wilkes-Barre, PA for games this weekend and someone told us about Kiko’s. We ordered breakfast sandwiches for the team that were absolutely fabulous. The boys loved them and asked for more! So, we ordered sandwiches for the ride home, and once again they were a huge hit! Kiko also made two trays of empanadas for us to try and the kids devoured them. Kiko is wonderful - very generous, flexible and a pleasure to work with. The experience was stellar! Thank you, Kiko!!”
“1st time diner. My son took me there. I had a western with hone fries and rye. Everything's great. Food, service, friendly staff. Have bakery items for sale also. Large portions if your a big eater. I will be back. Highly recommend!”

“Everyone is so helpful & will answer any questions you have. Their Cole slaw is excellent. I go every week for haddock & I have never been disappointed. Great service.”
“The owner is really kind and friendly, the food was amazing, huge portions for the price as well! Plus it’s convenient, and they have fun snacks as well as candy, even nostalgic ones. You can call in your order to be ready ahead of time as well! Definitely recommend to everyone! ☺️Parking: It’s right across the street from a public bus stop and there are about two spaces for you to park in front of the building on the street but it is a very small building with limited parking. It would be better to take the public transport bus and get your food instead of driving.”
“Florios has always had great food. Their grilled chicken salad is amazing and it's huge I can feed myself for dinner and then lunch the next day with it. Only complaint is they only take cash anymore no credit/debit cards, which is very inconvenient because who really carries more than a few dollars on them. But otherwise great food and they are always very nice”
Online Reservation Available
“Great food and service. We get take out here often and it’s money well spent. Priced below fast food chains with better service and food any day. If you’re looking to just grab something tasty and take it home this is it.”
“Their Asian food is top notch. I've eaten Chinese/Japanese food from all over (Chinatown in San Francisco, New York and Philadelphia) and tang reigns up there. A little pricey but worth every penny”
“This brewery is in an old schoolhouse. You can get flights of 8 beers which is cool, and they also make several flavors of seltzer. Atmosphere-wise, this is one of my favorite places to visit in the area.”
“Simply Fantastic! The food, presentation and service were all excellent. Loved our hostess! The food is authentic, fresh, and we tried a new item called Sopes. It was delicious and I highly recommend. There were a couple of other new ones too. They are more than happy to accommodate requests for making the dishes vegetarian. Gem of a place!”
“If y’all don’t like the smell of smoked food on a campfire, this isn’t your place! But it sure was mine! Amazing food, and a long list of adult beverages! Y’all have to try the nacho appetizer!”
“Before the last time at Texas Roadhouse I would say the food was great. For the 1st time I picked out my steak but what I got wasn't what I ordered. Being tired from traveling for 10 hours I just wasn't going to argue. It was the worst strip steak I have ever had.”
“Came here to celebrate my mom's 60th birthday. We all were staying in the hotel and gambling in the casino and wound up at this restaurant for the big birthday dinner celebration. We were a party of 6, so we made reservations in advance. The decor of the restaurant was great. Lots of cool images were all around us. We all started out ordering a bunch of different cocktails and mixed drinks. I went with the spicy margarita and I loved it. The tequila used was great and so smooth. After a while, we ordered our meals, and everyone enjoyed themselves. I had the spicy shrimp meal, which was awesome. Perfect amount of heat. A popular choice from everyone was the hanger steak. No one snapped a photo of it, though, lol. But everyone raved how good it was. My mom went with the salmon meal, and she loved it. Overall, we had a blast here and really enjoyed ourselves. The food and drinks are on point here. Highly recommended!”
“My husband and I ordered the general Tso's cauliflower, Buffalo chicken dip, the bison burger and the Korean beef grilled cheese. Everything was phenomenal. Our waiter was pleasant and attentive. The atmosphere is wonderful. Highly recommend. The was our first time and we will definitely be back.”
“I haven't been here in years, and moved out of the area. I was back in town for a funeral and a bunch of us went here afterwards and spent quite a bit of time having drinks and food. Michelle the bartender was AWESOME and gave us great service even when it got super busy (Sat night). We ordered apps and all were good as well.”
“I am extremely pleased with the incredible, authentic Belgium waffles offered and even more pleased with the fantastic service. I highly recommend All Belgium for any event you are planning. 20/10.”
“Me and my wife’s fave Chinese restaurant food is great and we have had some really bad food in the same surrounding area. This is the best and would recommend never any issues”
“Had a wonderful work get together and food and drinks were awesome. The service and vibe of the place was great! Shout out to our waitress Sam! She was the best!”
“Normally I have no problems going here, the food is always great. But today I received my food and my meat is so undercooked that it bled all over the rest of my food so now I either have to cook all of it or toss it.”
“What a wonderful experience. Ribs were excellent, but equally important the staff members were very friendly and professional, especially Laura, she was so kind and efficient. She made numerous trips to our table to ask if we needed anything,... for you Laura?. We will be back?.”
“I have no complain. Food is good, hot from the kitchen w great flavor. Drinks are delicious & atmosphere is chilled, calm & cool. Love the music ‘& if you want to do dance you may. Events every week. So far, amazing !”
“Very nice brewery in Hanover Twp. Excellent beer selection year round. Very large menu with alot of BBQ options but plenty of other selections as well. Has an outdoor seating area it appears but its still cold out so wasn’t set up. I had The Booski sandwich which is pulled pork, bacon, mac and cheese and other stuff. Very yummy. ?”
“Not from the area, but Mom and I stopped in here for some quick drinks and snacks while passing by, on our way home from our latest adventure.Nice little spot. Seems like it's probably the horse in a one horse town. Seems like all the locals hang here, and it was pretty busy.Convenience store, hot food, cold beer, a gas station, and a car wash!They had my favorite Red Bull here, the juneberry one, which was awesome because it's hard to find since the end of summer because I think it was discontinued.I'm glad we stopped here too, because we discovered one tire was real low on air. The air pump we used in the back was soooo slow, but it ran forever, so it got the job done. On our way out we saw another newer air pump by the carwash that takes credit cards and everything. That one probably works better, I wish I noticed it at first.Anyways, the people at the counter were really nice. I'd stop here again if in the area, for sure!”
Takeout Restaurants
“Being from the area there is a special place in my heart for Abe’s. A must-stop when I am in the area. The service is always quick and the staff is always friendly. There aren’t many places you can still have lunch for six dollars.The best!!!!”
“Fast. Tasty. Very affordable. Highly recommend.Parking: Watch out for the puddles. Be careful when exiting the parking lot, so many drivers don't pay attention close to the railroad crossing.”
“We ordered a full tray, red, Sicilian style pizza (half pepperoni). It was out of this world delicious. It was my first time ordering from Teberio's, but it definitely won't be my last.”
“Excellent Thai restaurant. For some reason, I can't get the Som Tum salad (papaya salad) anywhere where I now live (DE), so I always come here when I'm in town to get it. It's delicious and they throw 3 or 4 shrimp on top of it. Thai Ice Tea is refreshing and delicious and Chicken Pad Thai is supreme. Enough portions to get 2 or 3 meals out of it. I love this place!!! Highly recommend!!!”
“Went to Wilkes barre for a concert and was craving Mexican food. The location looks a little suspect coming from the outside, but going in everyone was friendly. Super authentic Mexican food, friendly staff, extensive menu and everything was delicious. Salsas were all very good, which is awesome considering you get free chips while waiting for your meal! If I’m ever back in the area I’ll be back.”
“This is one of the best pizzas, I’ve had in this area. I’m happy every time the wife says “ I’m not in the mood to cook!! It’s my ticket to paradise!! Great, Pie, great really Great !! Excellent, phenomenal sweet pie!! Can’t say enough good things!! I seriously believe Dave has to come back and try the sweet pie!!”
“Josep it was a pleasure speaking with you on the phone, thank you for responding and offering us an apology.

“Great little chill coffeehouse! I got the pumpkin cream cold brew which was AMAZING!! They brew La Columbe coffee & the atmosphere is calming and some people are working from here. Not a ton of tables, but it seems like most people are "grab and go". Will definitely be back!!”
“SO GOOD! It's a small cafe with seating inside, but I ordered take out. I got the meat stromboli, and it was full of flavor and I even had leftovers. I even got non-vegans to eat the buffalo and bbq wings and they liked them! Highly suggest this place, especially in an area where there aren't that many vegan options / restaurants.”
“Rice bowls, Twinning, Pierogi, The Happening!!Every single meal I’ve tried has been amazing and I didn’t list them all. Always happy to support great food from local shops and this one won’t disappoint!Wheelchair accessibility: Street level handicap ramps outside. No obstruction in the establishment”

“Authentic, delicious food served by a friendly, generous staff. Order double what you think you'll need—they're that amazing!Authentic and very delicious food, with friendly and generous employees. Order twice as much as you plan to eat, because the pupusas are so delicious that there is no doubt that you will want more!”
“Who knew you can get a hot dog here? I didn't, but I'm glad I stopped by. I ordered chili, cheese, mustard, sauteed onions and peppers with a bottle of coke classic. The bun was nice and soft, those peppers and onions cooked just perfect. The cheese and chili had a good taste. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Definitely will be back and if you were never here, stop by! Until next review be blessed and stay safe everyone.(I'm even getting a hoagie to go for a late night snack)”
“My husband and I went here on Valentine’s Day for the first time and we were absolutely blown away. The service was attentive and fast, food came out perfectly timed (and hot), presentation was excellent. We each had several yummy cocktails (I recommend the Honey, I Do), shared the clams appetizer, and had the Sole Special and the steak and lobster tail special for dinner. I worked in the restaurant industry in fine dining for many years and am usually so disappointed in restaurant experiences that we have mostly stopped going out to eat. Not anymore. We will be back again and again. Thank you for a lovely meal.”
“This brewery is in an old schoolhouse. You can get flights of 8 beers which is cool, and they also make several flavors of seltzer. Atmosphere-wise, this is one of my favorite places to visit in the area.”
“Pizza comes in personal sizes which is great for those who over eat. Definitely and affordable place to visit with a great atmosphere and nice bar. Was a good time with family and friends. Recommend the pierogi pizza.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Notes is called the Gyro KING because he's THE BEST of the BEST! His dolmas (stuffed grape leaves) are the best, too! Not only is the food excellent, but Notis is a great guy! He's extremely personable and fun to talk to. I highly recommend!!!”
“This is a great Carvel location. I've never had a problem with cake orders over the years. There's also a huge selection of specialty items ready to go ??.”
“They have the best sandwiches I’ve ever had from any subway so fresh and they definitely make they foot longs thick!!!!!! They are always so nice and polite I live near a subway but still drive 20 mins when I want a sandwich lol enough ”
“This Chick-fil-A in Wilkes-Barre is absolutely AMAZING! The mannerism, the politeness the staff is just ... I'm speechless.... great job and keep it up...the manager really Trained this staff properly!”
“I like the attention they have with the Latin public. There are 2 girls who speak Spanish and they have treated me excellently.Parking: The demarcation of positions for disabilities is not visible”
“I came in here with a friend for the first time last week. Not just this particular location, but I had never been to any CFA at all. I loved the boneless chicken. The outer crust material was just so flavorful. Now I get the love of their fans.”
“This location is always busy on a weekday morning! Make sure you order ahead of time. They've been the best location for my order and are always great with their service!”
“Food is good but where did the sign go talking about the freshness of the ingredients? Did you change something about the ingredients? It's like Wendy's when they stopped saying "fresh never frozen"”
“Instead of issuing a number to each individual order, they call out the orderer's name, which caused some confusion. I was given someone else's food by mistake because I had the same name as another person who had ordered. The atmosphere was very cramped in both the seating area and in the bathroom.”
“In town at the woodlands resort. Decided to go for a walk to dunkin. Took a minute to get our order in because the hotel was new. She kept apologizing but was very kind. We did overhear that mgt had left them for the day... at 10am. Drive thru was busy we got our order sat down and then a group of 10 or more boys came in off a tour bus. The girl tells them please be patient at have 3 new associates training today. Those girls were great. I'm no time they got those boys thru the line as well as getting the line of cars thru the drive thru. I'm in the customer service industry and just want to give props to folks who do it right. Great job Wilkes Barre dunkin.”
“Was incredibly busy but my order was taken promptly and came out hot and correct. Especially like the sourdough breakfast sandwich- gas double eggs and not greasy bread.”
“The best subway i’ve ever tried i go here every day for lunch and the employees are always very nice and give me good portions! The meat also tastes very good and fresh unlike other subways . They also warmed my cookies which no one has ever done for me at subway!! i love this ”
“My Uber driver drove past the window. I went inside & if was not easy to pick up my order. The Manager or supervisor, was preoccupied. I was afraid the driver was going 2 leave on me.”
“Went with my family. The food tasted really good and fresh. The service was good as well.Vegetarian options: Must try Impossible whopper. Really tasty and the patty was well made.”
“The food and service could have been a five - if they bothered to show concern about the mostly empty syrups for the drinks. How do you just shrug it off that there are only two drinks working. No one even bothered to ask to get me a drink from the back.”
“Absolutely amazing, 10/10 you have to go here! I adore street tacos and food trucks so every time I see one I stop and try their food and in the 100s of food trucks I have had this one takes the cake. Absolutely ”
“After a long drive we decided to not go out and just pop in downstairs shortly before closing. We were greeted by Mike who was bartending, busing, hosting, and being the waiter. He had a great personality, being super friendly and letting us know what his favorite dishes were. We ordered the French onion soup, have tray of old forge pizza, and a hangover burger. The French onion soup was honestly really delicious. It was so flavorful and not overly loaded with onions. It was a perfect soup. The old forge pizza was really good, I'm not the biggest fan personally of PA pizza but this one was pretty tasty. The burger looked and tasted amazing. It was cooked perfectly and was ginormous. Mike made the meal that much better with his great attitude even tho you can tell this dude was definitely exhausted after an insanely long work weekend. Thanks for not rushing us out and for being super friendly, we appreciate that. We will definitely be back in the near future since it's hard to find decent food in the area.”
“If y’all don’t like the smell of smoked food on a campfire, this isn’t your place! But it sure was mine! Amazing food, and a long list of adult beverages! Y’all have to try the nacho appetizer!”

“About 10 ladies in our group, dining on New Years Eve! Asparagus and crab soup was absolutely delicious! Everyone enjoyed their meal, atmosphere, each other's company, and service. No problem with the checks, either.Take note, when restaurants give individual checks right out of the gate, these ladies are big tippers. If they need to deal with splitting checks, the server is not as fortunate in the tip area.We went to Buena Sara on Washington Street the last couple of years, but last year was it. 5 people stood on the side and watched the elder ladies struggle with splitting the checks, and they were not busy. Our group of 10 were the only people there. It was very inappropriate for an expensive restaurant.But everything was perfect with Crisnics. We will definitely be back. We've been to catered events, lunch, and dinner at Crisnics, prior to New Years Eve, and have always been served good food!”
“I was amazed at how nice the people were. The food was so amazing it felt like the flavors were danceing on my tounge. There red sauce was really spicy it made my nose run. May I add the decorations in the are so cool. It was an overal 5 star place to go. I have nothing bad to say.Vegetarian options: There was a vegitarian fajita if I recal correctly on menu.Dietary restrictions: The made sure not to put any onions in my dads food even though he isn't allergic he just doesn't like them, and there was no onions found anywhere.”
“When my Jeep grenaded it’s serpentine belt I pulled into the owners lot where I was greeted by Don and Vicky, they looked at my car, insisted I come in to stay warm and even gave me a few pints to take the sting of breaking down away! It doesn’t hurt they like the Steelers either! I will be back soon for real with my wife to say hello”
“Franco's makes the best pizza in the WB area. I've been a fan of Franco's for years, going way back to when they were still Frank's, further down the street. Wonderful family business that has friendly & hard working staff ready to help, answer questions, and accommodate any special food requests (for allergies & other food sensitivities). I can't recommend Franco's enough - try it & you'll be a repeat customer too.Kid-friendliness: My ten and seven year old nephews love Franco's. The staff are very kid-friendly.”
“Ya HABIBI!!! It's my Siti's kibbe (minus the pine nuts on top) I have been searching for a baked Kibbe all overNY, PA, Texas, Ghana, Toronto, buffalo- everything is this hard fried football. Blah! Found at last and so so good. Kibbe, bread, hummus, tabouli!!! This is it. I've been in W-B a few times but on weekends. I finally had my husband bring me home a takeout. So glad I did. This is the best.”

“Longhorn is by far my favorite restaurants in the WB area. You really get your money's worth. I tried all of the appetizers, and I tell you they don't disappoint you. By far, my favorite is their strawberry shortcake cake ? I ordered it twice, and it gets better every time I eat ?. I can say the staff is amazing and very patient. The manager is very nice alway comes around and greet the guest making you feel very comfortable while you enjoy your dinner , one manager was so nice she gave my child a free snack once he was done with his meal, that was a great experience ? I can say Longhorn steakhouse is one of my favorite restaurants. I recommend it to everyone who wants to have a great tasty mealKid-friendliness: Very kid friendly staff was amazing with my son even gave him a free snack”

“This is the best sushi place I have found. Their Super Lobster roll is amazing, I have not found it's equal. Value is more important than price comparison in my opinion. If you want cheap prepare for low quality.”
“We had delivery to our hotel....a chicken Parmesan dinner, and a margaretta pizza....both were absolutly superb!! Chicken very tender, sauce really tasty ...garlic knots and salad...yummy. 2 calzones....we wish we lived closer, but will be back when we travel through again. Person who took our call also extremely pleasant....kudos!”
“Valley Sea Foods is unbelievable! I’m from Maryland and we pride ourselves on good seafood with a wide selection. How I wish I had a seafood store and carry out like this to visit often back home. Go visit and you will find whatever you have a taste for. The wide variety of fish, crabs, oysters, lobster, clams, etc. are available to take home and prepare or you can select from many prepared items. Try their sandwiches and other items to take out and enjoy. The crawfish Poboy is out of this world and it’s better than what I’ve tasted in New Orleans. The store is spotless and is most attractive and staff are great. We look forward to coming back soon!! Excellent!!”
“We came on a hot Sunday afternoon. The place was clean, bathrooms were clean and there is a little concession stand. There were bumpers available for the kids. Our family had a great time. Can't complain.”
“We just went there to dance & drink. We had a blast. The DJ was awesome!. There was smoking allowed which was a bit of a turn off for me ,but I would go there again.”

“We were here for breakfast. Noticed a seniors crowd. Ordered the breakfast potatoes rather than the shredded hash browns. They were basically small cubes of potatoes, deep fried. I missed the full-bodied taste of diner potatoes. I ordered eggs over easy, and I received eggs cooked more dry than expected. The sausages were cool, and I got the feeling that could have been brown and served. In contrast, my wife's order had kielbasa, which was definitely grilled”
“It was very clean and the service was really good its just I feel like the food could've been a bit more elevated. Nothing about the soup nor salad were particularly impressive and the main course was just fine. Overall nothing to write home about but nothing was bad.”
“A friend and I went for a really early breakfast, about 4am. The Diner was hopping, pretty busy for that hour. We sat at the counter, and the waitress came over and immediately took our orders.I had 2 eggs, over medium, fries, bacon well done (crispy, and white toast. My friend has a turkey club sandwich. Everything was cooked perfectly. We had a great time... Thank you D's Diner ? We will be back”

“We ordered a full tray, red, Sicilian style pizza (half pepperoni). It was out of this world delicious. It was my first time ordering from Teberio's, but it definitely won't be my last.”
“Not only is the food at Leggio's fantastic, but you'll get huge portions and wonderful service to boot. The menu is varied and has something for almost everyone!The atmosphere reminds me of going to Pizza Hut in the late 80s and early 90s, and if you think that is a negative thing it is most certainly not. It's a warm nostalgic feeling, very roomy and clean.”
“Had such a great lunch! The best buffet that I’ve ever been in as well as best quality/price ratio. Large verity of sushi, hot and cold appetizers and entrees, soups, fruit, ice cream, most of what we tried tasted well. Clean inside and polite waitresses, all that for only $14.99 per person!”
“When my Jeep grenaded it’s serpentine belt I pulled into the owners lot where I was greeted by Don and Vicky, they looked at my car, insisted I come in to stay warm and even gave me a few pints to take the sting of breaking down away! It doesn’t hurt they like the Steelers either! I will be back soon for real with my wife to say hello”
“The pita, bread, and spinach/meat pies are all very delicious. Been a customer since I was a kid. Super friendly family and a staple in the community. Stop in…it’s a must try.”
“My husband and I went here on Valentine’s Day for the first time and we were absolutely blown away. The service was attentive and fast, food came out perfectly timed (and hot), presentation was excellent. We each had several yummy cocktails (I recommend the Honey, I Do), shared the clams appetizer, and had the Sole Special and the steak and lobster tail special for dinner. I worked in the restaurant industry in fine dining for many years and am usually so disappointed in restaurant experiences that we have mostly stopped going out to eat. Not anymore. We will be back again and again. Thank you for a lovely meal.”
“I was amazed at how nice the people were. The food was so amazing it felt like the flavors were danceing on my tounge. There red sauce was really spicy it made my nose run. May I add the decorations in the are so cool. It was an overal 5 star place to go. I have nothing bad to say.Vegetarian options: There was a vegitarian fajita if I recal correctly on menu.Dietary restrictions: The made sure not to put any onions in my dads food even though he isn't allergic he just doesn't like them, and there was no onions found anywhere.”
“I went yesterday March 29,2024 at 5:20 pm with my son and girlfriend it was a Great experience. We chose one of the igloos it was really comfy and beautiful.

We will be going back! 100% recommended! ❣️We loved everything; The waitresses are very attentive, happy, helpful and make you feel welcome. The atmosphere is excellent, the food is delicious and the place is very nice.We recommend it 100%.”
“The owner is really kind and friendly, the food was amazing, huge portions for the price as well! Plus it’s convenient, and they have fun snacks as well as candy, even nostalgic ones. You can call in your order to be ready ahead of time as well! Definitely recommend to everyone! ☺️Parking: It’s right across the street from a public bus stop and there are about two spaces for you to park in front of the building on the street but it is a very small building with limited parking. It would be better to take the public transport bus and get your food instead of driving.”

“I had a perfectly cooked char broiled medium sirloin steak. It was juicy tender and the sides were hot and tasty. I am a huge fan of one of the national steakhouse chain that takes its name from Texas but here in Wilkes Barre I would choose the cracker barrel.”
“Great service. Love that they have parking. Ordered the blackberry sangria, cork martini and a Pom Cosmo. The sangria was very well balanced and refreshing. The martinis were too sweet for my liking. Shrimp scampi crostini and was delicious. The calamari portion is huge. They were also good. Had a steak special. Could’ve used less blue cheese. The portion was also huge. Steak could’ve used some seasoning. Once I scraped most of the blue cheese off, it was pretty bland. The green beans were cooked perfectly and tasted very fresh. Mashed potatoes were good too. Caramel toffee cheesecake was great. Very rich and creamy.Parking: Parking lot can get tight to get into/out of”
“For my dinner, I had the sirloin with fried shrimp, everything was it delicious, but the star of the show was my server Anna. I have known Anna for a few years now, but seeing her interact with her other guests, although I cannot speak for those guests, she treated myself and everyone with kindness, respect and care. Everyone who dines at Miller's deserves to experience Anna taking care of them, they will truly be amazed with how attentive, friendly and organized she is. Highly recommend visited Miller's just for Anna.”

“Guessing I have been to this location over a period of 40+ years. Reliable consistent comfort food. Sunday morning busy and bustling environment. I was politely and promptly greeted, served in short order, and you can see that the staff all get along and are respectful and friendly to each other and the customers. As I know that food service in such a place is not a high paying job, It only highlights the fact that they have a wonderful work culture. I heard a customer or waitstaff interacting with a level of familiarity indicating friendship. In a world where nothing is like it used to be, this place is as it was in all the best ways. Affordable, good and consistent comfort food, friendly staff and the fact that it was busy is a testament that customers recognize that it delivers. If it ain't broke, don't fix it...... Great location, great work culture, happy customers. Roxanne B, was my waitress and was great!”
