    This was my first time eating at this restaurant. We did make reservations but probably did not need them as the place was almost empty when we artived around 4:15 p.m. We sat out back on the huge patio. Emily was our server. She was very attentive and knowledge about the menu. After we ordered our food, it was brought out about 10 minutes later which we thought was super fast. It was impressive for a Saturday evening, although again it was early around 4:20. The food was pretty good. Not the best we’ve eaten but certainly nowhere near the worst. My favorite part of my dinner was the tomato bisque soup, although I am not a fan of mushrooms, which it had. The dessert was amazing! We both enjoyed it and thought it was the best part of our meal there.

    Stop by for Sunday lunch! They have Prinerib tacos on special — they're amazing! The best I've had in a long time. The corn tortillas with jalapenos are fantastic, and the truffle fries are a must-try. The only thing missing was fresh pico de gallo. Will order again for sure

    We enjoyed this place with my twin brother and his wife when we were in to see them from Wisconsin. They are regulars here and treated us to the meal! We loved the many rooms which gave a nice sense of privacy. The waiters were all great but we really enjoyed Doug, our table waiter! He was very attentive and the service was quick.

    We were visiting the area and someone at our hotel recommended it. It was a perfect choice. Mel was our waitress and had a great personality. Our drinks were good and the food was excellent. After a long day of shopping and driving , it was wonderful to have a relaxing dinner.

    We got takeout from this place, we ordered 2 Fish & Chips, a Vegetable Medley, and a Mac & Cheese side. All the food was excellent, and the portions were excellent as well. I have to give a special shoutout to the fish as we got really nice, solid, flavorful pieces. They also respected our special instructions for the order. Would definitely order from here again next time we are in Lancaster.

    The food here is a bit more expensive than some other restaurants, but for the portion size and quality of food it is worth it. I got the chicken and broccoli Alfredo then added a side of crab meat to the dish. It was very good but it was a hearty meal. I spilt it in half and saved the rest for a second meal. We also got the fondue app and it was very creamy and paired great with the bread slices provided.
