I resist recommending anything specifically hoping not to limit your selection. The combinations of flavor are so very interesting and pair expertly. That being said you cannot go wrong with the featured burger of the week. The space is stunning. The convert bank into something between a Gastropub and a fine dining experience is the perfect backdrop for the eclectic menu. My friend and I both felt as great as the food and architecture are, the service was outstanding. Not only did our hostess and waitress demonstrate a conviction and pride of the brand that they represented but they were friendly and engaging. If I lived 100 miles closer. I'd be there at least once a week to expand my waistline. We were also greeted by insistent manager, whose name I shamefully do not recall. She also demonstrated pride in the establishment and serving its customers. Although it's quite a ways from home, I have no doubt that I will be back until then. I will look forward to it. At spot like Bank and Vine is a true gem.

Library Lounge at Skytop Lodge feels like stepping back in time in the best possible way…read more From the moment you walk in, everything slows down. Dim lighting, big comfortable leather chairs, bookshelves lining the walls, a fully stocked bar, and historic photos throughout the space create a classic lodge vibe that feels timeless without being stuffy. It is cozy, polished, and incredibly relaxing. The staff is knowledgeable and clearly takes pride in what they serve. The craft cocktails are well made and thoughtful, and if you prefer beer, there are solid options there too. As a bourbon lover, I especially enjoyed their private barrel pick served neat, a real treat and easily a standout pour. This is a perfect pre-dinner or post-evening stop, we have done both, and it works beautifully either way. Dress is slightly casual but leans upscale, and while pricing is a bit higher than average, it feels completely worth it for the setting, quality, and experience. We sank into the chairs, talked story with friends, and lost track of time, which really says it all. If you are anywhere near Skytop Lodge, make sure this is on your list. Plan extra time, you will want to linger.

If you're in Wilkes-Barre--whether you're a resident or just visiting--or anywhere in the…read moresurrounding areas, including Scranton, I highly recommend checking out Diamond City Vault. From start to finish, the food was outstanding. We began with the Stracciatella soup and mussels, which were both absolutely out of this world, followed by a salad that was just as impressive. For our entrées, we enjoyed the shrimp tacos, which were incredibly fresh and delicious, and the aged steak, which was cooked to perfection and truly top-notch. Even though we were completely full, we couldn't resist dessert. We shared the limoncello cake with cappuccino, and, like everything else we had, it was exceptional. The restaurant itself is beautiful, the service was impeccable, and the owner couldn't have been more gracious. He's clearly passionate about making this restaurant a success, and it shows in every aspect of the dining experience. As a thoughtful surprise, our dessert and cappuccinos were complimentary. It certainly wasn't expected, but it was a very kind and professional gesture that we genuinely appreciated. If you're anywhere in the Wilkes-Barre area--or even if you're farther away--Diamond City Vault is absolutely worth the trip. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

When asked if I liked the tuna, I responded "no". The waitress offered to take it off the check, which I thought was the right thing to do. When I got home I saw two charges on my credit card. One was for the amount I signed for in the restaurant which included the removal of the tuna from the bill. HOWEVER, there was a second charge on my card for what suspiciously looked to be the amount of the tuna item that was supposedly removed from the bill. Still checking on it, but doesn't look to be quite what I agreed to. I certainly wouldn't recommend the tuna, and would caution you to double check your credit card statement after dining at his place. Others seemed to enjoy their food, but this is just my experience.

The ambiance is quiet and low-lit, tough for menu reading post-40 but just what the doctor ordered after a loud, busy, sensory-filled day.

There was a lot going on with the prosciutto wrapped dates, and my best guy steered clear of the adventureful bowl, but between bites of crispy prosciutto and sweet date, with a pronounced blue cheese and hot honey kick, I was cleaning up that hummus like I was a butternut squash ambassador. Not to be outranked, the Southern fried chicken tacos may have been the best bang for our buck; they were absolutely delicious and you can't even get fast food chicken tacos at that price point; very impressive.

That said, management seriously needs to get their act together -- better scheduling and actual leadership would be a start. Now the food... wow. Dry, bland chicken that tasted like it had a personal vendetta. Broccoli was weirdly bitter and rubbery. The nacho platter? Straight-up movie theater reject: canned cheese, beans, and sadness. Portions were laughably small -- my toddler nephew eats more. And the price? Absolutely not worth it. Cafeteria food at fine-dining prices. Management should be embarrassed. Time to revamp the kitchen, taste your food, and remember what a restaurant is supposed to be. Such a shame for such a nice space.
