Allentown Restaurant Guide & Dining Reviews
Featured Review
First time there a week ago to dine with business associates from the area who spoke very highly of it. I was not disappointed. Waitress was very friendly and took ample time to explain specials etc. Food was outstanding (I had the Henry VIII special, Petite fillet minion with lump crab meat and brown butter ) Interesting atmosphere with owner cooking behind the bar. Fine salad bar and good deserts. A great example of why you should speak to local residents to find great small restaurants instead of just going to the same old chain outlets when out of town. Looking forward to returning on my next trip to Allentown.
