The Chocolate Avenue Grill is a popular neighborhood eatery in downtown Hershey, offering a diverse menu that includes wraps, pastas, seafood, and even chocolate martinis. The restaurant features an airy bistro space with a patio for outdoor dining during warmer months. With its recent renovation and locally owned operation, the grill provides a charming atmosphere to enjoy various cuisines such as Thai, Italian, and Mexican.
Blown away by our first visit. The menu presents too many good options. The lobster roll was on point. The street corn chicken risotto outstanding. The short rib pasta was deep and rich. Service was quick and pleasant. We will definitely be back.

This place has a pretty good selection on their menu. The hot honey goat cheese appetizer was great. Portion size on the actual entrees could be bigger especially for the prize. This place is pricey but as I stated, the menu will probably be a bit different than most places you go to. The drinks seemed to be hit or miss. One was great. The other didn’t have much flavor and I think they skipped the alcohol for one. It’s worth a stop.

We decided to try this restaurant while celebrating our anniversary in Hershey. We did make reservations for a Saturday night. When we arrived, there was a wait for a table if you did not have a reservation. We had the Limoncello Spritz and the Italian Gin and Tonic. Both of the drinks were refreshing. We ordered the Mexican Street Corn Risotto with grilled chicken and Spanish Chorizo and Shrimp. The meals did not come with a salad but you can add it for an extra cost. For dessert, we opted for another drink. We choose the Peanut Butter Milkshake martini (which is served in an iced tea glass not a martini glass) and another Italian Gin and Tonic. Everything was delicious.

We decided to eat here for our anniversary and what an amazing decision. The food was so delicious and Breanne (sp?) was phenomenal. She was super nice, answered all our questions, and offered suggestions on what to eat. My husband got the pork chop with garlic mashed potatoes and I had the butternut squash gnocchetti. We will definitely be back!

After a day at Hersheypark, we usually stop at Tröegs Brewery for dinner, but this time we decided to mix it up and try something different. This was our first time visiting Chocolate Avenue Grill, and we were extremely happy with the choice. The duck wing appetizer was incredibly delicious, and the hot honey glazed scallops were next-level amazing. I had a bite of my son's hot chicken sandwich and my wife's Mediterranean wrap, and both were also so good. To say this meal was enjoyable would be a complete understatement. I honestly cannot remember the last time I had food that tasted this good. We are already looking forward to our next visit to the area, and this will definitely become a regular stop for us. I cannot speak highly enough about how blown away we were by the flavor and overall quality of the food.

Fantastic restaurant! Friendly service and great food at Reasonable prices! And they have a dog friendly patio!! I had the blackened chicken tacos and got the sliders to share with my dog. My wife got the French dip and our friend got the smokehouse burger. Have to say- amazing!! We will definitely be back!

Upscale Café, perfect for date or ladies luncheon. I had the Goat cheese salad and it was delicious. My granddaughter had the traditional burger and fries, said they were good. Creme brulee was fantastic, large enough to share, and the peanut butter pie was so rich it tasted like fudge.

Devon Seafood & Steak is an upscale dining spot in Hershey, offering a delectable selection of fresh seafood and prime steaks. The restaurant prides itself on serving sustainably farmed and line-caught fish, alongside mouthwatering sides like lobster mac n cheese and Yukon Gold potatoes. Guests can enjoy their meal alfresco on the patio, with a view of Hershey's Kiss streetlights and the smokestacks.
The restaurant has a great ambience. Our server was friendly and great. Their foods were absolutely amazing. If someone asks for a restaurant recommendation when visiting the Hershey Park, you can confidently recommend this place. I personally loved my scallops, mushroom risotto and rainbow carrots. My husband was first served with a fillet mignon but our server corrected the order right away and changed to the T-bone ribeye. The steak was so great that their mistake was immediately forgotten. My kids thoroughly enjoyed the dining experience here and wanted to go again the next day.

Amazing experience. All selections were top tier! The barramundi was much better than expected even with high expectations. It held the smoke and char nicely while still being moist and delicious. Appetizer sampler was great for a few people. Mushrooms were incredible. Mac & cheese was above average.

Devon Seafood and Steak is an amazing upscale dining experience! I dined at Devon while on a work outing to Hershey with a group of 8. There was a very short wait for a table (we had a reservation) and the establishment was somewhat busy during our visit. Devon has a great, classy atmosphere and a great menu focusing on red meats and seafood that is printed and updated each day based on item availability. On this visit I ordered a surf and turf with a filet and salmon. Table service was a little slow and there was a significant wait between ordering drinks, appetizers, food, and desserts, but a lot of this wait was likely due to the size of our party and the wait for the food was not terribly long. The surf and turf was amazing, and the Salmon is close to some of the best I have had anywhere! There were some great selections for dessert and we sampled plenty of them, all of which were delicious. It is unlikely I will be back in the Hershey area again anytime soon, but if I find myself in that area I would definitely look up Devon's again!
Joe — Google review
A classy establishment with a wide variety of delicious and creative entrees that elevate classic seafood staples. From the biscuits you get to start through the wide variety of different sea creatures on both the mixed grill and hot seafood platter, you are sure to find some excellent food here. I think the mixed grill is your best bet to ensure you are getting a variety, and it will surely not disappoint. Great spot in a great city- with a bonus that it is in a very central location so you can walk around after!

Fantastic dinner! We are locals who drove by all the time. Seafood is incredibly fresh, servers are so attentive and friendly - we had Quan and he was the best! The salmon was cooked perfectly, and the lobster Mac and cheese was a highlight! My wife’s dinner looked incredible as well! We will definitely be back!

Was disappointed by the food here - blackened shrimps were overcooked and the bouillabaisse tasted underwhelming. Garlic wine mussels was the only good item on the menu imo. Was also super difficult to get the attention of the service team and the meal dragged on longer than we’d like.

The restaurant's unique dining experience is enhanced by its rustic ambiance with large wood beams and stone walls. Whether you're enjoying lunch, dinner, or Sunday brunch on one of the three spacious floors, The Mill promises scratch-made dishes and specialty beverages.
Excellent restaurant! Love the food; service Sarah was super professional and great recommendation on food! We had pork belly and calamari for appetizer… pictures of plates shows how well prepared the plates come to your table. It was delicious; rich in flavor! We’re all the way from Virginia and first time in Hershey totally worth it. Thank you.

We wanted to try this place based on reviews and the happy hour menu that we found online. We asked to be seated outside on the patio and after ordering drinks we found out that happy hour prices were only when you sit at the bar. That’s really my only complaint. We only ordered the queso, which was good, and cocktails. The watermelon martini is delicious. The atmosphere is great. We would come back.
Amy — Google review
The ambiance of the Mill is legendary. The appetizers and desserts were great, the entree which I got the Ribeye was cooked to perfection, but not seasoned. Lastly Service was good, but their only item to improve upon is timing at the table for checking in and ordering. Our waitress was polite and courteous.

We went for happy hour over the weekend and had a decent experience! We shared a hummus app and got burgers for dinner. We also enjoyed the strawberry mule and cucumber cooler. Overall a bit pricey for dinner but would go again for happy hour!

We stopped here for happy hour on a Friday evening. We got seated and I asked about a happy hour menu, only to be told that happy hour was only observed at the bar tables. Huh?? We would’ve stuck around for a second round but took off to another happy hour nearby. The drinks were good and the queso was great. No complaints except for the conditional happy hour pricing. Probably wouldn’t be back.

I also want to shout out our waitress who did a fantastic job with such a large group. She was calm, helpful and kind. I really enjoyed my experience here!

Nestled within the iconic Hotel Hershey, The Circular is a flagship restaurant offering contemporary American cuisine in a historically inspired setting with views of the gardens. As part of the Hershey Entertainment & Resorts Company, it captures new and fresh flavors while honoring its heritage. Executive Chef Bart Umidi's extensive experience influences the diverse menu, featuring dishes like Cocoa Dusted Diver Scallops and Espresso and Cocoa Crusted Venison.
Absolutely fantastic experience. Hotel Hershey is a beautifully maintained historic establishment. The Circular exemplifies those qualities from the staff to the atmosphere to the food and beverages. The view of the gardens alone is worth taking in each season. The staff from the hostess to the manager was very attentive and friendly. The signature cocktails were interesting and delicious. The food was delicious and prepared flawlessly. Lastly, they added complimentary chocolate strawberries for my wife’s birthday. Chef’s kiss to the entire establishment!

My husband and I have been to The Circular twice now, and both experiences were outstanding. The food and service are truly top-notch. The restaurant itself has a beautiful, elegant atmosphere that perfectly matches the fine dining experience you’d expect at the Hotel Hershey. We had Mike as our server both times, and he was fantastic — attentive, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. We’ll definitely be asking for him again the next time we go. The food is on the pricier side, but the quality, presentation, and overall experience make it absolutely worth it. Portions are perfectly balanced — generous enough to feel satisfying without being overwhelming. This is, without a doubt, our favorite restaurant. Every visit feels special, and we can’t wait to come back!

Lauren made fantastic drinks! The Bubba was the perfect summer cocktail, infused vodka, pomegranate juice, and honey simple syrup came together perfectly. The Hansel and Gretel was a fun and refreshing mix of mint, lemon, and bourbon, surprisingly light and ideal for warm weather. As a local, this is easily one of the best spots in the area for a great drink and a relaxed vibe. The bar is usually open and welcoming, and it’s always a solid choice for a fun night out. Highly recommend!

I have to admit, the prices were intimidating when I first saw them online. We went as a group to celebrate a couple getting married. The food and service was astoundingly good and although the prices are high so is the quality. The waiter made a great red wine suggestion to pair with my filet mignon. I had scoffed at the cheese platter when I first saw pictures of it bc it was so small but the flavors of it are so big we were able to share one plate between four people. Their mixed cocktails were stellar as well. My husband is super picky but love Reese’s cups and thoroughly enjoyed the Reese’s martini. The deserts were divine, all the girls got something different and taste tested amongst each other. My favorite was the pear gelato. Overall, this place is fancy, and it makes you feel fancy and special. Despite the prices, I now think they’re justified for the experience and quality.

The Bears' Den at Hershey Lodge is a modern sports bar with a hockey theme, offering a full bar and American cuisine. The tavern provides a family-friendly atmosphere with big TVs lining the walls for sports enthusiasts to enjoy their favorite games. The menu includes gluten-free options, and the chefs are accommodating to dietary restrictions, ensuring that all guests can find something delicious to eat.
The prices are what you would expect from a restaurant on premises (on the upper end), but expectations end there. The food was very tasty. The menu had a huge selection, suitable for both kids & adults. The service is in a league of its own. We have a kid with dairy allergies. A chef came out and talked with us. She explained they have a separate fryer free of allergens. We appreciate the attention to detail. It gave us confidence our kiddo could eat safely.

I was at a conference this week at the Lodge and needed to order something to go. I spent $20 on this salad which is pretty steep for what you get. Kens blue cheese salad dressing is about the worst you can get. Please get better dressing at least if youre going to charge that much for a salad.

Fun place with some arcade games, lots of tv's everywhere. There's a pretty big menu. The ribs are good but probably shouldn't be placed directly on top of a pile of french fries. Otherwise it's not a bad place... the burgers are pretty good. The bison chili fries are good too.

I had a pleasant meal at this location. If you want a nice-sized portion for the price point you will get that here. My favorite thing is their customer service. I had the build-your-own burger. I was a bit disappointed that it was well done as opposed to medium well. I like my burgers juicy and well done produces a dryer texture. However, the flavor was good. I would've enjoyed fries instead of homemade chips. Overall I give it a thumbs up.

Let me start by saying the place is nice , it gives off a BWW vibe. Our waiter Andrew was friendly, attentive, and got everything right and out quickly! I had ordered the steak salad. My steak was very fatty - i know fat on steak gives it flavor but this was fatty to the point I felt as if I didn't eat much steak. I did not attempt to send it back as that is something I do not do at a restaurant. I didn’t complain either, I just ate what I wanted. My 2 coworkers were with me one had chicken and waffles which looked amazing and looked like it was cooked to perfection and my other coworker had the bison burger with fries which looked good too. I would come back again, but definitely get something different!

A decent sports bar/restaurant inside a great hotel. I visited The Bears Den during a stay at the Hershey Lodge. I sat at the bar and ordered a burger and a mixed drink. Service here was quick and I had the burger about 10 minutes after ordering. The burger was not anything that would knock your socks off, but it was good, juicy, and cooked to order! Overall I believe my stop in The Bears Den was positive and is a good option to eat while visiting the Lodge!

Stayed at the lodge, fire & grain and Stacks were not bad. We're going to go to Revelry tonight but heard from multiple people to not bother and reviews hit or miss so went to here instead. How is this place not higher? Easily the best place to eat at the lodge and its not even close. For the price it was best food and great atmosphere.

this was genuinely the worst food i have ever eaten. we ordered the soft pretzels as an appetizer and they were frozen solid. when our food came, everything tasted so bad that we barely ate anything. The burgers were even worse than a high school cafeteria’s. Please do not spend the ridiculous amounts of money that they think they can charge for public school cafeteria level food. The service was totally fine but the quality of the food is no where near what they’re charging.

One of the best restaurants in the Hershey/Palmyra area. I had the Wagyu smash burger and it was the best burger I have had in a very long time. Amazing!!! The beer that they make is awesome as well. 5 stars!! Fast friendly service as well. Awesome atmosphere as well, they had some kind of Jimmy Buffet/Bob Marley station playing in the background. It’s kinda rare to have a dining experience like this anymore. You can tell the owners still care about their customers. Will definitely be back.

Ok, so we came for dinner tonight after a long day at Hershey park with the kids. I had come here a couple years ago with a friend and it was good, but unfortunately tonight was nothing like my last experience. We got here at 6:10 on a Friday night and there were only 4 other occupied tables, but it took half an hour to get our food after we ordered. We were all so hungry by the time we got our food that I forgot to take pics until after we were done, so I only got a few. 2 of the 3 kids ordered chicken fingers and they said they liked the chicken but not the outside, and it was because the outside was burned as you can see by the picture. The loaded tater tots as well as the side of tots my husband ordered were not at all crispy, they were soft and completely soggy and under cooked. Honestly, you couldn’t even tell there were tater tots in the loaded tater tots because it was just a mushy soggy mess. And they offer “pulled pork or chicken” on the loaded tots, which makes it seem like you’re getting pulled chicken, which is not the case, it was very dry, flavorless grilled chicken, which didn’t make sense and was difficult to eat on top of loaded tater tots. The avocado toast was basically a salad on top of a piece of bread, and was not at all what was expected for avocado toast. The portions shown in the pictures are what was left when we were done eating, because nobody wanted to eat that food. We paid $135 for mostly uneaten food. I’ll pass on coming back here.

We had a girls night out the other evening and we hadn’t been to Rotunda’s in Hershey for a while. To say we had a fantastic night would be an understatement. The mixed drinks were amazing and the food top notch. Laura, the bartender was sweet, sassy, fun, and engaging. Our waitress, Sarah, was great and very fun. We had a night of laughing til our faces hurt. That’s the sign of a near perfect night with friends! We can’t wait to go back!

We went there for lunch on Thursday around 12:30 pm. We ordered 2 appetizers to share, 10 smoked wings in buffalo sauce with ranch and veggies ($18) and brew pub pretzel with mustard and cheese ($13). The atmosphere is very inviting and bright when you first walk in. I would say that the menu is on the expensive side however their happy hour menu looks to be an affordable option to enjoy. The service was great, the food was delicious and the vibes were chill.

We are out of towners and she was so helpful right away. The food was AMAZING, the drinks were insane - highly recommend their house margarita - wow! We had such a great first experience we took my parents back the next night while we were still in town. This place is a hit and their menu is just fantastic. We ordered everything from the rice bowl, smoked wings, smash burger, to the kids grilled cheese and cheese curds. We will absolutely be back next time we visit Hershey! It was so nice having such wonderful service.

We are from out of town and visiting Hershey overnight and like to try local places and came across Rotunda and thought we would give it a try. Very cool vibe inside and friendly staff. My husband enjoyed his Norway Spruce beer. He ordered the wagyu meatloaf and said it was outstanding. The twice baked potato was a little bland but the meatloaf more than made up for it. I wanted something a little lighter and the hot honey bourbon glazed salmon was delicious. We splurged on dessert and my husband loved the cloud coconut cake and said it was one of his favorite desserts. I enjoyed the NY style Oreo cheesecake with the very light strawberry glaze. Overall, a memorable meal and would definitely eat here again.

Family of 4, 2 steaks cooked very well but pricey. Beef Rib cooked perfectly and priced well, and a burger cooked very well. Couple of things were sent back for exchanged. The whiskey package was a good way to go. The other drinks we ordered needs some work. The risotto was returned but the Mac n Cheese was good. The fries and homemade potatoes chips were above average. No dessert.

Excellent in every way! Best meal we've had in a long time. My wife got one of the specials, which was garlic steak and shrimp with sauteed green beans and carrots. I got a filet and side of mushroom risotto. Everything was delicious and cooked perfectly. Very friendly and attentive server named, Andrea. Would definitely go again.

Let's start by saying our waitress Andrea was amazing. Very passionate about describing the food, what to expect and telling us about the specials. Hubby had a steak ordered med, came out med rare, very light on seasoning, mac and cheese was ok nothing amazing, but Let's talk about the tomato's garnish. Please fix that it needs help , looked horrible like a dried up rasin. ...... I had the fish special which had a nice sear and the sauce was amazing. We shared the peanut butter pie which we could not get enough of!!! Over all not too bad.

First time at this place while visiting Hersheypark. Food was delicious!!! Waiter was amazing. He quickly went over the entire menu and suggested some wonderful pairings. Everything we ordered was cooked to perfection. Their whipped potatoes were delicious and the sauce he suggested to pair with the crab cake was simply magnificent. Best crab cake I’ve had in years by the way!!! Can’t wait to go back.

Tuna and Waygu carpaccio appetizers were excellent. They get 5 stars! Tuna app a little pricey for the portion. My son enjoyed the french fries appetizer while we had those. :) It is thoughtful for them to put a petite filet on the kids menu. Although the filet was grilled (not expected) and a little tough. My 6 oz filet was cooked perfectly and the bourbon sauce was great. My husband got the lamb chops which he enjoyed with the bourbon sauce as well. We both felt the portions were a bit small for the price. The sides were large portions. The fingerling potatoes were yummy but the mushrooms not so much. Overall, the food was not properly seasoned - we had to ask for salt and pepper. Def recommend the creme brulee cheesecake for dessert - 5 stars! Service was fine but not excellent. Server was very nice but didn't check in enough.

This was a big no from us. Our burger, fries, asparagus, and steak all came out cold. Not room temperature and not like warm, just cold. We sat and waited on our food for 1 1/2 hours. We were a table of 2 and the table with 5 and the table with 4 that came in about 20-30 minutes after us all got their food at the same time as us. Overall, when you pay as much as we did for the meal, you expect a better quality and the fact that our meal was as disappointing as it was with no resolve after talking to our server was highly disheartening.

Always make a reservation! We are here on Christmas Day and it was amazing. The service was phenomenal! We had the wagyu meatballs with truffle mash in a bourbon sauce!!! Must try, it was delicious! We also had the Tomahawk and one of the specials which was a tritip with mushrooms over farro risotto in a red wine sauce. Everything was seasoned to perfection! I was a bit worried as previous reviews said there wasn't any seasoning. Everything was delicious! Can not wait to try again!

Nestled within the inviting Hershey Lodge, Fire & Grain is a stylish yet laid-back restaurant that perfectly blends comfort and culinary creativity. With its warm ambiance featuring communal tables and a charming fireplace, it’s an ideal spot for enjoying American and Italian-inspired dishes. The menu boasts innovative cocktails like the festive White Peppermint Martini and the rich Black Walnut Old Fashioned, making it perfect for holiday gatherings or casual outings with friends.
We ate here on the morning of Sunday, September 21st, before our departure. We elected to do the buffet but were also informed that we could order omelets and eggs to order at no additional cost. With that, we each ordered an omelet and got a selection of baked goods, fruit, breakfast potatoes, and breakfast meats from the buffet. We also ordered coffee, and the server brought a full pot and 2 mugs for us. This was perfect. All tasted good, and the buffet has a wide selection. Whatever you're in the mood for, you'll be able to find. Friendly service and a warm, inviting atmosphere right off the lobby of the hotel. We've eaten here for both breakfast and dinner during our various trips here and have always had a positive experience. Recommended!

We were attending the Workforce Conference at Hershey Lodge and my coworker and I decided to stop here for dinner. We happily found out that between 4-6pm they offer 1/2 price on certain “small plates” so we decided to each try a few out and wrap up the leftovers. My favorite hands down was the beef brisket over potatoes with cheddar and pickled onions. That was delicious !! I also got the bruschetta which was pretty good. Lastly the flatbread pepperoni pizza, it was ok but I didnt expect much more as its a flatbread pepperoni pizza lol. Getting them all for around $9 each was definitely worth it! If we had gotten there after 6 and paid full price for the portions given I would have been disappointed! Especially with the flatbread. Our server was Tea, ( apologies if I spelled it wrong) she was attentive and personable.

We stopped by for a weekday breakfast and it was delicious. Our waitress was wonderful too. Prices are a bit high for what we ordered but you can't beat the convenience of having it in the hotel.

Good morning. We had breakfast this morning at the restaurant located on the first floor of the Hershey Lodge. We previously dined there for dinner the other night and had a positive experience. This morning, we opted for the buffet, which I found to be overpriced for the selection offered. However, since we were staying at the lodge, it was included in our room rate. Our server, Mandy, provided excellent service on both occasions. She was friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to make our dining experience enjoyable. On our first visit, Mandy inquired if we were celebrating any special occasions. I informed her that it was my birthday and wedding anniversary. At the end of our meal, she surprised me with a complimentary dessert with a candle. I would like to express my appreciation to Mandy for her exceptional service.

The lady operating the bar Friday night took our call and helped us - I don't recall her name but we were super tired and hungry and she took over from the hostess out front and took excellent care of us! They made my wife a chicken dinner with mashed potatoes and gravy with asparagus and I ate a Delmonico steak that was so tender and juicy - I could not have been better served! The ambiance was very nice though it was a carry out order. I imagine the dining experience in-house would have been exceptional. So thankful for these folks like the lady who served us who take customer service above and beyond the benchmarks that are held today. You could learn a lot from wonderful employees like her!

Fenicci's of Hershey is a beloved Italian eatery and bar that has been a part of the Hershey tradition since 1935. The restaurant offers a casual dining experience with a menu featuring pizzas, pastas, and family-style dishes. Owner Phil Guarno takes pride in using quality ingredients, some sourced from his own garden, to create both cherished original recipes and new, innovative additions.
I absolutely LOVED eating here. I was on a group trip and they brought out our food, 20 people’s food so fast. I ordered the tortellini blush, hoping it would be similar to another dish I absolutely love, and it was everything I had hoped and more. I usually can’t eat an entire meal at a restaurant in one sitting. I have to take it to go and eat the rest later on. I finished that tortellini blush in maybe 5-10 minutes it was so good. Maybe I was starving from being on the road and running around all day with a huge group of people, but either way, it was absolutely delicious and the servers were super knowledgeable about the town!

Staffing was great the waiter was polite and very talkative. He was very easy to talk to and made us feel comfortable, got some giggles out of us with his witty comments. Food was great! Drink was a-little strong to my liking, but that’s just my preference. Do not over estimate on the Stromboli size! It’s huge!!! Definitely brought it home for lunch the next day. Atmosphere was great, a-little to dark my older family members couldn’t read the menu cause the lighting was too low. They had to put the flashlight on their phone to read the menu. But the food was awesome!! Definitely will be back and recommend.

This was my first time here, I took my girlfriend on a date. We both ENJOYED IT! The service was fast, polite and gave us our space. The atmosphere was nice and cozy, we sat on the lounge booth side that has the bar next to it. Great art on the walls. We tried the famous meatballs and they were everything you could imagine from an Italian restaurant! Only thing I would say is the meatballs should come with just 1 piece of bread maybe to share as we got 4 of the meatballs. But other than that 1 suggestion 10/10!!!! Would recommend, will recommend, and have recommended to friends already. Great Job Fenicci’s 👏🏾

I ate here like ten years ago and remember it being a pleasant experience. This time, it was quite the opposite. A lot of the recent reviews are similar to what we encountered. However, some of the reviews were really good, so we figured we'd chance it. Big mistake. We had a reservation for five people at 9:45, and the kitchen is supposedly open until 11:30, so it's not like we came in right before close. None of the wait staff looked like they wanted to be there. Our waiter essentially just asked us "What do you want?" and then left. When the food came, it was just dropped off at our table by a different server. My order wasn't even correct and had to be remade. We were barely checked on and there was very little actual serving going on from our server. As for the food, the bread was very dry. The salad dressing was good. The sausage was alright, as was the Alfredo. However, everything did need a decent amount of salt added to it. The food wasn't exactly bad, but I've had a lot better and it was just very mediocre. We could have gone to Olive Garden for much cheaper, had excellent service, and with the same amount of love put into the food. We weren't offered dessert or anything, so we just paid and left as soon as possible. We shouldn't have even left the $10 tip we did leave. As a server myself, I would be ashamed to treat my customers like that.

Literally terrible experience. Placed an order on the phone and everything was verbally confirmed. $65 later and we are back at our hotel and there is no dressing on the salad, about 10 pieces of calamari with no lemons on the side like we asked and about 5 bites of crab tortellini for $28! And then when I called back, I was told “I will take care of it” by the woman on the phone and then she hung up. I have no idea if that means I will be refunded or what. Never go here. Not to mention a salad was supposed to come with the tortellini and no cutlery.

The food was decent. I got the lasagna and enjoyed it, my wife got the fettuccine and it was okay but not great. We got the spinach artichoke dip which was great, the salads that came with the entries were decent, about what you'd expect. Everything went smoothly until the end when we asked for a desert menu. We waited about 10-15 minutes for the menu and they were out of what my wife wanted. Other than that, the service was fast.

Such a cute spot to check out. The coffee menu is different and yummy. The portion sizes were big and filling. My family loved their meals. Their Eggs Benedict looked delicious. Slightly disappointed that my blueberry pancakes were underdone and had to get them made again. The staff was very accommodating and redid it for me. Next time I'm in PA I'll give it a try again.

This is one of the top breakfast experiences I've ever had with my family. Highly recommend getting there early as there is a long wait especially for going on the weekend and waiting longer for the outdoor seating is probably going to be experienced you'll never forget. Parking is probably the hardest thing to do when visiting this place but it doesn't help that the employees of the hotel next door are parking where only the Hershey pantry people are allowed to park. Highly recommend doing the oatmeal flight it was the most delicious thing I've ever tried and also their breakfast drinks are absolutely out of this world delicious. My waitress was Alyssa she's absolutely amazing and she gave it her all.

We visited Hershey for a few days and walked over to this cute little cafe and had some of the BEST food and drinks I’ve had in a while! The baked oatmeal flight was incredible, the chai latte was perfect, loved the chorizo breakfast tacos, and adored our server, Cate! 100/10!! Update: we went a second time and it was just as good! Loved their breakfast sausage and eggs Benedict, and those pumpkin cinnamon rolls were incredible! Plus, the hashbrowns always come out the perfect texture.

My husband and I have been visiting this place for the last 4 years occasionally but the more we visit, the less we want to go. Their menu, although gets creative every season, some of their portions are getting smaller (specifically the seasonal ones), and their prices are going up. The last time we visited recently, we ordered one of their seasonal items on the menu (Banana Nutella French toast). It was $17 for a small plate and it didn’t come with anything on the side. My poor husband left that place hungry and disappointed. I ordered a BLT sandwich which supposedly came with a mix salad and it was mainly mixed greens (not an actual salad). My sandwich portion was bigger than my husband’s small French toast plate. Their drinks are expensive as well and they charge you extra for any small changes you add to your drink. On another note, this place is mostly popular because they are close to Hershey Park which is a touristic area. Always be ready to wait a while before you get seated. Based on our last experience here, we won’t be visiting for a long time.

Breakfast or brunch at Hershey Pantry is amazing (I can’t bring myself to order anything but breakfast food, so I’m not sure how it is for lunch—probably good)! It can get very busy, especially during peak park season. But the breakfast, specialty coffee, and mimosas are great. My most recent meal was a baked oatmeal flight (apple, pumpkin, and s’mores) and a mimosa flight—-both were amazing! The staff is always friendly and efficient, so they do really keep it moving. The only negative thing about this place is the parking. It’s a ridiculously small lot for the size of the restaurant, and it can be terrible to find a spot during what is considered a normal breakfast time. There is a hotel next door, but they’re understandably not fans of you parking there. I’ve already circled around for up to 10+ minutes trying to even find a spot at the hotel. I think it does cause a lot of people to just give up, even when the wait isn’t that long.

I had the Oreo cookie cheesecake croissant French toast special and the PB Mocha Lover drink. My husband had the sausage gravy and biscuits with gravy and home fries. The portions were amazingly big and the taste was fantastic! I would highly recommend eating here! 10 out of 10

A friend and I went to lunch at Houlihan's, and while it wasn’t my first time there, it was still a solid experience. The place was pretty crowded, so the service was quick, which I appreciated. I had the ribs, and while they were good, I think my expectations were a little high since I hadn't had ribs in a while. They were decent, but if I go back, I’d probably try something else. As for my friend, I can't remember exactly what he got, but there wasn’t a drop of food left on his plate, so I’d say he enjoyed it! Overall, good spot, but I might go for a different dish next time.

It’s been years since I’ve been here, as I have since moved away. Since I was visiting the area again, I wanted to eat here, as the food has always been top-notch, but I was hesitant because the service has been really slow in the past. I am disappointed to say that even after 8+ years, I still had a similar experience with the service being extremely slow. My husband and I ate here in the middle of the day. The restaurant was nowhere near full, and other tables were in-and out before we even got our food. It seems to really depend on which staff member is serving your table that determines the timeliness of service. Even after we were finished, and the waitress brought the check to the table, it took 20 minutes for her to come back to retrieve the card to pay. As always, the food was great, but I don’t think it’s enough to justify the poor service.

Unfortunately for hooligans, they had a bad cook in-house the night I was there. Best friend's bday get together had taken place here and it was all the guys so we expected a good time. I had a steak that was, at best room temp dark red after I ordered it medium rare. The waiter was super friendly so there was no problem there and he was happy to get me a new steak. After waiting 15-20 MINUTES for a MEDIUM RARE STEAK, I was given a cardboard box colored, all the way through, well done steak. Needless to say, the waiter understood immediately the issue and offered for it to be fixed. By then, after eating my sides and two alcoholic beverages, I no longer had an appetite. The manager came and offered free desserts and to have it removed from my bill (obviously). The staff besides the bitter cook was super nice. The venue was also very good, tables for larger parties should be more available there (8 grown men at a average sized round table barely cut it). Outside of my situation the other food seemed good but I dont like driving an hour away and spend good money just to toss a coin for a decent cook. I'd say if its already on your route, you're already in the area or close enough by it, then its worth the stop by, hopefully that cook isn't on his or her period though.

Decent place. The goat cheese and artichoke poppers were amazing. The overall atmosphere of the place can be a bit too noisy at times. Depending when you go.

I have stayed at the Hampton Inn and Suites many times, but this was the first time I realized the Howard Johnson's had a restaurant in the basement. I had to take stairs to get to it. I don't know if there is an elevator, so if you can't do stairs, call and ask first. I only wanted to place an order to go, soI could continue working in my hotel. I had the best hostess take my order. Her name was Victoria or Vicki (but definitely not Emily). She brought my iced tea out right away and served it to me with a platter of lemons and sweetener options in the seating area outside the restaurant doors while I waited. When she bought my food, she refilled the tea and made sure I took my sweetener choice to go too. The food was hot, even after my short walk back. I wasn't expecting bread and oil with seasonings. That was a nice touch. I will definitely order from here again. The atmosphere inside was lively and full of laughter from the bar and a family singing happy birthday in the corner booth. It was obvious everyone was enjoying the place.

Hidden Gem! I was concerned as we walked in that it would be a dive bar or something low-end, but wow was I pleasantly surprised! The food was fantastic! Appetizers: Lollipop Lamb chops - great! Wanted more! Seared Ahi Tuna - would order again although I love Yuzu and don’t think that was the sauce Baked Brie was wonderful Sea Scallops - loved them but I would argue the raspberry sauce was not a raspberry port wine reduction as much as a jam. Dinner Chiopino (Seafood Medley) - Shrimp Scallops, Clams, Mussels, Lobster on a pasta bed with garlic white wine sauce. 5- star and would order again! Other guests had the red sauce version (Fra Diavolo) which was spicy and they liked it less than the White wine version. Great spot for a date!
