The Sticky Elbow had a big menu and even bigger portion sizes…read more My bartender and server was great. She gave generous pours, solid recommendations, and constant smiles. Despite being one of the few patrons in the restaurant, my order took quite some time to come out. Drinks were made instantly, but I finished two before my entree arrived. The bathroom was strangely the only sticky element of the establishment. *Ribeye: huge 18 ounce ribeye served with sweet potato fries and creamed corn. Although I asked for medium rare, the edges leaned closer to medium well. That said, the steak was thoroughly seasoned and tender throughout. The sweet potato fries were heavily seasoned with sea salt, though the potatoes themselves were sweet enough to balance it out. The creamed corn was the most pungent and watery component. I wished the sauce had been thickened more, as it pooled underneath the steak and softened the bottom crust. Overall, this dish was hefty and a steal for the price. *Frost Bite: one of the seasonal mixed drinks. The Malibu and pineapple juice gave this a pina colada style profile. The blue curacao added a striking snowy appearance, though the drink itself leaned quite sweet. *Jingle Juice: another seasonal option, though this one packed a stronger alcohol punch. The tequila was more prominent, while the peach schnapps helped soften the edge. However, the cranberry and orange juices were barely noticeable, so it did not quite deliver the spiked fruit punch profile I was expecting. I loved the generous portions and strong flavors. While the execution was not perfect, the large sizes and heavy pours still made this a jolly experience.

We've gotten takeout from here three times, and it's been very good each time. The Vegetable…read morePakoras (appetizer) are consistently excellent, very flavorful and not overly doughy, dry, or oily. Nice job. The Vegetable Samosas and Chana Chat, which is somewhat like a bean salad, are also very good appetizers, but the Pakoras win in my book. Nice portions of rice with all entrees, and good portions overall. The only reason I'm not giving five stars is because our entrees weren't as great the last time, which was a couple months ago now. We got the Chana Masala (chickpeas in spiced tomato-based sauce), Saag Paneer (spinach with homemade cheese cubes), and Aloo Mutter (peas and potatoes in curry sauce). There was less depth to the flavor of each dish, and the ingredients seemed a little lower quality than prior orders. We hadn't had the Chana Masala or Saag Paneer here before, so maybe we just aren't used to how they make them, compared to elsewhere. Or it could've been a busy/off night? The employees are very nice, especially the man who is usually working the front. He wears a mask as well. The first time we went, he included a free order of naan. So nice! As others have said, the inside of the restaurant isn't anything fancy. It would be nice if they improved it a bit by the time indoor dining is fully back, but it's not a deal-breaker for me. Overall, I'd recommend takeout from here for now!

So bad. Probably the worst "Indian food" I've ever had. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala, rice…read moreand Naan. The Tikka Masala base tasted exactly like Campbell's tomato soup with cream. It was terrible. I got about 5 small cubes of chicken. The Naan was like hard, crusty, microwaved bread. Exactly the opposite of what Naan actually is. It was beyond bad. The only redeeming quality of this place was the guy behind the counter. It's $25 I will never get back. People who say this is authentic food lhave never had authentic Middle Eastern or Indian food.

Overall decent experience and place seemed to be packed with the local community…read more Veal Parmesan was good ordered sauce on the side...(strongly recommend they like their sauce) spaghetti with meat sauce was ok had a weird taste. Salad was included it was basic Bread warm from the oven (took a while) was delicious. My wife got her favorite chicken franchise asked for side of pasta with same sauce. Came out with red sauce- Chicken itself was ok needed S&P sauce was beyond terrible!! Lemon butter sauce should not have tomato chunks, slices of garlic or corn starch used as a thickening agent. Meal was ok but wouldn't rush back.

Really disappointed with the experience we had Sunday evening at the Williamsport location. We…read moreplaced a reservation for a party of 6 for my family, it was my sister in law's birthday. We all did not arrive at the same time but within 5 minutes of each other and the policy is not to sit at hibachi table until everyone in party is there. I knew this from before but had momentarily forgotten. The lack of waiting area is also a problem and they direct you to area with non hibachi's tables. I immediately explained that my son is not going to do well moving from waiting table to hibachi table without issues. The response was "well that is our policy". He is non verbal, has autism and fragile x, he doesn't understand policy or why we'd be put at one table area to wait and then move to another table. When the rest of our party arrived and he had to move, he got loud as I predicted. Two other people in our party also had autism. I sensed immediate annoyance from the management. We have no complaints about our server or our hibachi chef as they were more than kind and nice but we feel management instructed them to move us out fast. It was the fastest hibachi cooking I ever had there. We were never asked if we needed more drinks or dessert. It was a birthday celebration. Then suddenly they were there singing with a gong but obviously knew we had autistic people in the party. It caused reaction from my son and his cousin. They never asked us prior if it was okay or told us what they planned. We could have prepared the boys for noise. And then next thing we knew our check and to go boxes were presented basically saying get out! It was my worst experience ever at Ichiban or any other place I have taken my son in all of Pennsylvania or Texas where our permanent home is now. I did not punish the waitress and gave a very generous tip. I truly think she was told to move us fast. It wasn't even overly busy as we went before 5 pm. There were open hibachi tables. Overall I think the management needs training in people with autism and other sensitivity issues. This is super disappointing from a restaurant we typically love.

Right behind the Marriott Bonvoy. They have both indoor and…read moreoutdoor seating available. Came here for a work dinner so the restaurant was closed for this private event. When walking inside, the smell reminded me of an old basement, but it quickly faded. We had live music playing, which set the perfect vibe. The bartenders were quick and super friendly. Enjoyed a variety of appetizers and my favorite was the bread. The crust had a great salty flavor to it. Unfortunately, my entrée was forgotten about so I didn't get my plate of food until most of the party was done eating. However, this server was very apologetic and I just slipped on my mojito. Loved the street corn and the poblano crema on the potatoes. For dessert I had the ice cream sandwich, which was underwhelming. The cookies were too hard, a bit overcooked for my liking. Overall, I did like the variety of their menu and the overall atmosphere of this joint.

First time stopping by this restaurant (located on the back street of where google map directs)…read more The food was delicious! Sophia is in her 70s and is the owner, chef, waitress all-in-one. After making my takeout order she talked with me for 20 minutes about her family, business (has operated this restaurant for 53 years!), and travels. On top of that, she made everything with one hand while wearing a cast from surgery from last week. Such a neat character, restaurant, and amazing food.

First of all, I wanted to say that the main owner of this place is the kindest woman I've ever met…read moreher whole ethos is bringing people together to have conversations and I think just to have that mentality and compassion for people and that desire to bring people together around food is something that I inspired to Inculcate in myself. She honestly sat down and right away told me about her story told me about her family allowed me to join the conversation as well and it just felt like I was at home just for her. I would come back multiple times as far as the ambience goes. The door is always creating an inviting environment. it's one of the places where you just go and you feel like you're transported to another country where you can just relax. The food also felt very healthy. It wasn't heavy at all. It was a little bit on the pricey red but still, it just felt so homey so organic and overall the ambience made the whole experience.
