We had an amazing lunch experience at Chef Von & Mom restaurant – a much needed stop on our trip home to SC from Connecticut. The food was excellent! We had smash burgers – the Von and the LA. They were delicious! I ordered a side of Cheesesteak Perogies which were hearty enough for a meal on their own. Fantastic!
Mom was so welcoming and helpful in choosing our orders. I asked for a photo with her and she obliged. After the posed picture, she asked if I ate all of my meal (burger + all the perogies). I smiled and said yep all of it!
We hope to return in the future!

I did not think that the Penut Butter Bacon burger would work. I was way off, the burger was so good. Happend to be in the area for a convention and was sampling food in time square for scary good eats App. The service was excellent as staff was really nice. It did take a while for the order to be filled, but it was worth it. Comparing to other places, they would hit another level of they prepared fresh fries. I will be back soon.

The peanut butter cheese burger was fantastic, I’ve had pb burgers at 6 or 7 different places and this was right up there with the best. The regular (untopped) fries were excellent as well, crispy and seasoned perfectly. The garlic Parm fries have an excellent flavor, although they were a bit soggy. I think the toppings sat on the fries a bit too long before serving. Excellent overall and will be back.

The food was delicious and plentiful. The service was warm and inviting. Chef Von’s mom was there and the attention she shows to her customers is the best. You feel like family here. On my next trip through Scranton this will be a spot I won’t want to miss. Great job to the entire team at Chef Von and Mom’s!

I can’t even begin to state how incredibly juicy and tasty this burger was that I had here. Even the fries were flawlessly crispy yet not overcooked. The peanut butter cheeseburger was something out of this world. The secret peanut sauce and the glaze on the Canadian bacon was mind-boggling good. I came to Scranton, Pennsylvania for the first time and didn’t really have time to see much except for dinner. This place was picked completely randomly using Google maps. It turned out to be one of the best visits I’ve ever had to any city simply thanks to the incredible culinary experience that I had with the food served here. I’m really blown away by the amount of care given by the chef to the creation of each meal and this establishment. A lot of care and effort goes into producing an extremely high-quality meal that probably should be priced exponentially higher than what I even paid for it. The only thing I regret is the fact that I live two hours away from this place. I can’t frequent it as often as I would really like to.

Great smashed RODEO burgers and the candied bacon was best i ever had. Generous portions on French fries. Clean place with good service. Would get a FIVE but no fountain soda, only cans with no ice for drinks. Steak and cheese pierogies were very good. WE WILL BE BACK!!

One of us is a fan of Next Level Chef, and we both happened to be passing through Scranton. We were fortunate to be there and to have been cooked for by Chef Von. Without exaggeration, this was the best burger—and one of the best meals—we’ve ever had. The vibe was relaxed, and everyone working there was incredibly friendly. The food was so good that if we were ever within an hour’s radius, we would absolutely make a stop.

I had ordered a single smash burger, a double pb smash burger and the chicken ceaser pasta salad with garlic fries. All were perfect, size was well worth the price and made for a meals instead of barely one with other burger meals I could order. Great food and great service. Will become my favorite go to while laid up from surgery…

First let me say their food is very delicious. I will continue to order from Chef Von Mom. I would like to recommend one slight change, everything I have order is a little bit salty. If they cut back slightly their food would be perfect but otherwise the food is amazing. Please cut back with the salt. I wish them nothing but success.
