Fantastic place with from scratch food with wallet pleasing prices. They have Senior Discounts which I give mad respect to as things are tough for our seniors. They run a delicious prime rib special as well.
I got the chicken parmesan, large portion made from scratch nice price. Totally on point.
Mom got the the senior shrimp and sweet potato fried. (Picture as one missing, mom couldn’t wait… Lol) She loves it!
They also have a full bar!
Put this on your must visit, friendly, delicious, good portions, and welcoming prices.

We had been wanting to come try out this restaurant and finally made it out on Thanksgiving day. They were doing a thanksgiving buffet so that drew us in.
We sat at the bar. They do have alcoholic drinks but we didn’t get any on this occasion but the bar was right inside the door and we prefer sitting there. The typicall thanksgiving foods were offered in the buffet; turkey, stuffing, mashed and sweet potato’s, etc. they also had shrimp scampi with pasta which must have been a hit because all I could get was the pasta but that was good. I imagine it would have been even better with the shrimp.
Our bartender/server was pleasant and attentive. The overall atmosphere was easygoing. The owner or manager was greeting people and we chatted with him. He was hospitable and welcoming.
The price for the buffet was great. I didn’t get a chance to look at prices on the regular menu but I am sure they are comparable to most other places in town.
We had an overall good time. We will have to come back and try the seafood dishes sometime.

We started off simple with water and Yuengling Lager, then ordered the Ahi tuna as our starter. The tuna was spot-on — fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly.
For our meals, we went with the Crab Benedict and the Shrimp Linguine pasta. The clear standouts were the shrimp and the tuna. Both were cooked to perfection and carried the whole experience.
Overall, solid food with a couple of real highlights. The shrimp and tuna alone make it worth stopping in.

The only reason I give 3 stars for atmosphere is because I’ve only taken food home from here. So far really good steaks and sides and speedy service. I’ve had the Prime Rib and the Ribeye. I hope the community keeps them open and thriving.

9/11/25: Just heard about this restaurant recently and we wanted to check it out. (It’s near the Carlisle Fairgrounds at the corner of Carlisle Springs Rd and Clay Street.) We arrived just before 7pm, were greeted warmly and seated right away. There were two other tables seated at that time. Our server, Terrasha, was friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I asked about Gluten Free and she said the chef was willing to leave the breading out of the crab stuffing if I wanted something with that in it. They also have gluten free buns and pasta if you request it! Glad to find another restaurant that’s willing to work with people’s dietary restrictions. I ordered the Crab-stuffed Cod along with their two vegetables of the day, cauliflower and mushrooms. My husband ordered a NY Strip (choice of 8oz or 12oz) with a baked potato and cauliflower. (He’d already attacked his food before I could get a photo! But it looked perfect!) We absolutely loved our dinners. They were seasoned well and cooked perfectly! Delicious. They have quite the dessert case, so my husband ordered a plain cheesecake. (Again, couldn’t get a picture.) I’m rather surprised it wasn’t busier there!! Need some good marketing to get the word out! They have a bar, tv’s, serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We’ll be returning.

Was just there. Almost the last table on a Sunday evening, so I was hesitant to order seafood, but our server reassured me, and I was not disappointed. Mussels in white wine w/warm french bread and butter. Delish! Crab cake sandwich with REAL hush puppies! Every little thing was yum. Should have gotten something to go.
We had a cocktail, appetizer, 2 mains and one dessert. $75. More than worth it for the quality. I wish I left every restaurants feeling this satisfied with quality and amount of food. Thank you to the owners and our server.

It seems to be a bit of a hidden gem….
Directly next to the Carlisle fairgrounds in Carlisle, Pa.
Easy in, easy out.
You can TELL the food is made fresh. I had the stuffed cod (they also offer salmon). Menu has a great selection in both food and price ranges.
So glad we decided to stop!

Customer service was outstanding. Crab chowder was one of the best I have ever eaten. Artichoke and crab dip was good my 1 yr old daughter went nuts for it. My wife’s steak was wonderful, still mooing like she likes it. Overall wonderful place, people and food highly recommend. Thank you to the staff for a wonderful experience for our 1 yr anniversary.

Kayara was our waitress and was beyond exceptional (Sorry if I misspelled it) making sure our food was made right and that we were well taken care of. All the staff was great, warm and welcoming. My husband had the Crab Chowder and said is one of the best seafood soups he ever had. Crab artichoke dip was amazing. Our baby went NUTS over it. My husband said the Shrimp Scampi was good but had too much butter. Chose the cheesecake with Apple topping. Was good nothing outstanding. I had a Mango OJ cocktail drink was really good. Prime rib had a bit of fat but was cooked perfectly (Philadelphia Style) and the shrimp skewer was great with the house seasoning!!! Sautéed mushrooms were good. Will be returning!!! It should be noted that they don’t skimp on the amount of seafood in thier dishes!!!

Had Father’s Day lunch with my husband! It was wonderful! We went high end but the menu clearly shows they have options for all – breakfast 5.99 and sandwich special options $10.99. I will dine there again!
