Absolutely a gem! This locally-owned place elevates the quiet downtown of Carlisle. Everything we have tried is delicious with complex flavors that complement each bite. The service is consistently great and very attentive to allergy concerns! This is our go-to date night and always our first recommendation for hosting and visitors. read more

One13 Social is among Carlisle's most top-rated restaurants on Yelp. After dining here solo on a Wednesday night in April, I can say it lives up to the hype. Walking in without a reservation, I got a table right away. The host and server were both friendly and very helpful. Within minutes, my order was taken. After asking a question about how dry the local hard cider on the menu is, my server brought over a taste. It's not too dry and very, very good. Order it. The mushroom soup was perfect. The parmesan chip on top made it pop even more. The smash burger was tasty. The fries that it comes with are thin, but very hot and delicious. Overall, I had an excellent experience here. There's street parking out front to make it easy. read more

Second visit just as good as the first. Match pesto shrimp was phenomenal. Highly recommend using the call ahead system- Carlisle was very busy due to an event on the square and thankfully we got a table easily because we had called ahead. read more

A spectacular take on dishes you are familiar with, One13 offers its own opinion in a beautiful restaurant atmosphere that takes you far from Carlisle. This is one of those restaurants that many smaller towns have, that don't necessarily make the city what it is, but certainly add that little cherry on top to make it special. If you're traveling through, PCS-ing the Army War College, or a local who hasn't found their way through these doors yet, I couldn't recommend it more. read more

A great place to try in Carlisle. My Dinner Club, which consists of nine people came here for dinner on a Saturday evening. Since they don't take reservations, we called in early and they suggested a time for us to come in. They have an extensive alcohol menu as well as cocktails and wine. We like to order quite a few appetizers so we can try multiple dishes. We had the brussels sprouts, oysters, mozzarella planks, shrimp, and grits, tuna torte, the goat cheese bread, and the Korean ribs. While we felt all of them were exceptional, the mozzarella was good but not amazing. It was recommended to try the Duroq pork chop. Three of the guys ordered it and they were not disappointed. Three of the ladies went with the Esquites shrimp. The homemade pasta was so light, the sauce made the dish. The shrimp were perfectly cooked. We enjoyed the bits of corn that added a different level of texture. The Bolognese was ordered, the salmon as well as the tuna bowl. All meals were fantastic. We love to order dessert as well so we went with the peanut butter pie, the espresso torte, and the crème brûlée. The peanut butter pie was light and airy, The torte had a nice layer of espresso cream, followed by the dark chocolate torte. Our server was attentive and even anticipated some of our needs. Although we were seated at the front of the original restaurant, the bar area and the expanded dining room were inviting. I would love to go back and try one of their sandwiches or salads. It's worth the trip to Carlisle to get some amazing food. read more

Great vibe at the bar thanks to the fantastic bartenders setting the stage. Big fans of Richie and Maddie! Ordered the fried mozzarella and pork chop. The pork chop was amazing, had bacon crumbles and mashed potatoes. I'll definitely come back for other items on the menu. The crowning moment was the desserts, that cheesecake is amazing. Just a really fun time, and a great place to socialize. read more

I was traveling for work, and a coworker chose this spot for us. The restaurant had a nice, elegant atmosphere and was surprisingly packed for a weekday. The service was okay, but with a party of eight, I understand that things can get a little hectic. I ordered the jerk chicken wings (not pictured) and fries, while several others got burgers and fries. Unfortunately, our server forgot something from almost everyone's order--including my fries. Overall, this place feels more like a date-night spot, but the food was good. read more

I'm so incredibly jealous of my family who live close to this place. They do indeed have some of the best food I've ever had in my life. It's unfair. They don't specifically take reservations, but the support person was kind enough to let me know I can call ahead of time to let them know about a large party. So that's what we did. They seated around twelve of us, which I always appreciate to see. The server was super nice and handled all of our requests (some members trickled in slowly). Starting off from their drinks to their appetizers, there's just nothing quite like it. The fries were cooked in duck fat. The crab soup had rich chunks and great depth to it. Their broiled broccoli was amazing; had nice little charred bits on them. They were definitely a fan-favorite among the tables. Now onto the main reason I went here, the flank steak. Oh boy. I'd come back here again just to have that steak (I plan on it). The dessert was a delicious pistachio cheesecake. Pretty much all of their food exceeded my expectations. Truly a gem of a restaurant to have in such a quaint area. read more

We did some bar hopping in Carlisle, where, being a college town, there are bars and breweries all near one another. Inside, the atmosphere is very clean and leans more toward the fancy side of dining. Toward the back, there's a bar with a TV showing sports. The two bartenders working were absolutely great. Nick, in particular, was wonderful, and I wish him the best of luck. We stayed for a few drinks, but the food coming out looked amazing and was plated with extra care. read more

This was a great find. Quaint historic area in downtown Carlisle. I was seated right away, and the hostess set me up with water while I waited for the bartender. The tap water wasn't tasty, and the bartender was kind enough to get me a glass of water from the filtered tap. I ordered the salmon with peppercorn sauce. What a beautiful, flakey filet. I don't normally like the skin. However, this was crispy and not fishy at all. The bartender recommended the smashed red potatoes made with garlic. They nicely complimented the tender salmon. If I am in town again, I will eat this dish. Everyone was friendly, and the food was just right. read more

The service was poor. They literally took a party of four that came in after us instead of seating us or the party of two that came in before us. They gave up and left. We had seen sets of two set at a four seat table in the entrance way, so I'm not sure why they didn't do that again. There were multiple 2 seat tables available when we were seated. If you were going to be selective about seating, the ability to make reservations would be better. We counted at least six staff that passed by our dirty dishes after the appetizer. The server never told us her name. I had the pork chop but one side was over done making it tough. My spouse had beef bolognese. It was ok. Nothing special. The ambiance is nice but on the loud side. Overall, we had better food at Applebee's, with a melt in the mouth chicken, the night before for half the cost. read more

One13 Social - Tallow fries and short ribs - New American Near Me - Carlisle, Pennsylvania

Stopped in with my husband to see if it lived up to the hype. It did. We were seated in the bar area and the service was excellent. We opted to share four smaller dishes instead of larger entrees. I had heard rave reviews about the fries. $11 for a large bowl of julienned potatoes fried in duck fat and served with two small cups of salsa verde and garlic Parmesan aioli. Easily in the top ten of the best fries I have ever eaten. The salsa verde was excellent and the aioli was amazing. I actually used my finger to make sure I didn't leave any. The fries were perfectly made. Incredibly crispy on the outside with a light interior. Not the tiniest bit greasy. I'd go there just for the fries and a drink. For $16 the spoon bread shrimp was an eclectic combination of flavors that worked together to create an incredibly tasty dish. Shrimp, corn spoonbread with honey butter, pickled peppers, olive tapenade . . . it is salty, sweet, savory, and yummy. I would only make two adjustments. First, it needs two more shrimp to have a perfect combination of bites. Even cutting each shrimp into 3-4 pieces didn't give enough shrimp pieces to have a small piece for each forkful. Second, remove the tails before serving. Tails on shrimp you eat with fingers is fine. But pulling tails off shrimp you need to cut and eat with a fork is messy. The smoked goat bread for $14 was excellent. However, it wasn't all that unique. It's a nice twist on a traditional bruschetta but with an emphasis on red pepper instead of tomato. The bread was good, the garlic confit was very good (I could have easily enjoyed more of the garlic in the dish). I was hoping for a strong smoke flavor but the peppers tasted like roasted peppers, not smoked. I also wanted more vanilla in the balsamic reduction. Our fourth dish was the poached pear salad for $14. They really nailed this one. It's similar to other pear salads I have had. But better. The poached pears were perfect. The balance of ingredients was spot on. Everything blended extremely well. The hands down highlight of the dish is the blue cheese croquettes. Crispy outside creamy inside, and that sharp blue cheese flavor slightly mellowed because of being a croquette. I could eat an entire plate of those round orbs of awesomeness. Hubby had a unique beer. The drink list is interesting and well balanced. There is truly something for everyone from the bar. Like beer? They have PBR for $4 and Chimay for $15. One of the best wine lists I've seen in central PA, they also offer a few different wines by the glass. Their selection of liquor options is also impressive. Two thumbs way way up. I can't wait to go again read more

This place is amazing. Love the bar and the food was fantastic as well as service . Had the chicken marsala. Looking forward to next visit.

This was such a nourishing respite from our drive as we headed home from the east coast to the midwest. We called ahead by an hour to get on the waiting list and were seated right away. We did small plates only and can highly recommend the tuna tostada (a bit hard to share partly due to it being a single tostada and partly because I didn't want to!), the Korean BBQ ribs. The she crab soup and goat toast came in second place but were also enjoyed. It was too much food for two. Service was smooth and prompt for us since we were on the road - but that didn't stop me from having a delicious Parlor Trick since I wasn't driving! Our server, Evan, was warm and professional as were those at the host desk. Would love for our travels to take us back this way. read more

I've been visiting in Carlisle for two months. I've eating in at least 35 restaurants...'One13 Social' is the worst meal I have had in this city! My steak tonight was inedible; tough and no flavor! The rest of my meal was subpar! The service rendered was the only highlight of my experience. I will not return or recommend! read more

well were to start, we usually plan our fridays weeks ahead of time due we enjoy trying new places around the Mechanicsburg, Carlisle, Camp Hill area. Book reervations through various online reservations systems, One13Social states we have a 1 hour call ahead on the day one wants to eat there. The response well you know some people book large parties then cancel last minute so One13social says the one hour call ahead says works for them. well online reservations systems allow parents of students to book ahead, birthdays, holidays, events, date nights. high top, regular table, booth. nope none of that. so when we arrive Friday around 5pm due to traffic. not that busy at the hostess stand. we check in, we make the comment about online reservation system, hostess says works for us, already annoyed by the hostess response. she proceeds to walk us to a table 10 feet from the hostess table, some little 2 top diaganol from the kitchen but the table is against the wall but is where everyone walking into the restaurant comes and go. really. then we ask about the sitting near the bar with high tops. Hostess says those tables are reserved ahead of time. I ask how are those reserved, well those table are for regular customers. then next selection is the table 2 feet from the bathroom. Uh no, then we ask for a booth, hostess says something, booths are technically reserved. yep service right down. Every week I look forward taking my significant other to dinner after a long work week. ok seated. the waitress hands us two menus plus drink menu, in our hands for 10 seconds, before even providing us specials of the day, waitress asks are we ready to order yet? just barely seated. Any ways after ordering drinks, cokd, bloodymary, diet coke and vodka. she goes over the specials, Steak blah, but failed to mention One13social just started a special steak program which means one hasn't quite dialed in the cooking temps of the steak, utensils (good steal knives) , sides. appetizers ordered, Koren BBQ Ribs, mussels, baked oysters, Koren BBQ Ribs and Mussells served, oh baked oysters make take a little while longer. again that is a kitchen timing issue. appetizers were all good, baked oysters of the oysters are small, up the quantity. We ordered 'medium' bright pink through the center and the rest. not even close, edges of steak and outer of steak, burnt ok, middle of steak way past well. eat some sweet potato, Waitress stops by we confirm Medium, she says it's medium, we hold up to light, well to well done. She says well I will take it back to kitchen to cook it more for you? uhm one cannot take a well to well done back to medium. so she picks it the plate with our steak on it, brings it to the manager, who we watch walk by us to the kitchen with our plate. waitress returns and says we will cook you another one without even asking us if we really wanted a new one. 10 minutes later, manager brings new steak, then demands us to immediare cut into it, inner cut, borderline raw/rare, another section, medium well to well, near the bone, rare, the second steak was less cooked not even close to medium. At that point our frustration level was peaking. Manager states well we just stated our steak program last week. no offer to comp our bill saying you know what our cooks at One13 Social goofed on your order, we would like to return again and visit our establishment. the only reason we found out about One13 Social is due to MaryAnn, other than that we are not fans of restaurants in Carlisle due to the places just don't care about food quality or service. bill is dropped off by waitress. really on the edge of not tipping at all. appetizers are good, entree experience fail. service needs improvement, female manager attitude needs adjustment. we know we are just local people who enjoy trying new places, taking food pictures for our Harrisburg/Lancaster Foodie Faceboom group, yelp reviews, google reviews. telling our friends about our experience, etc. if we like an establishment expect at least once a month visit or more, if not and bad post maybe never again read more

We moved here 4 months ago. We've been to One13 Social twice. Great service. Excellent food. One of our go to spots in Carlisle.

Place did not live up to the hype. The only way to describe the food is "trying too hard". Some items we could barely stomach due to them either being overpowering or dry as a bone. The atmosphere/clientele did not match the prices. Loud obnoxious patrons (some with their feet on the chairs). Overall very disappointed for the price paid. Better quality food, atmosphere and service at a chain restaurant for half the price. read more

Was looking for a new dining venue - drove past & didn't even know this establishment was here. We stopped in & fortunately there was no wait. Drinks came quickly - nice selection of items to choose from (but not voluminous). I settled in on the Salmon ..which was AWEsome, BTW! We knew we were in for a treat as the plating of our dishes were worthy of an art gallery;) Service was quick and courteous throughout & each bite of our food was well-balanced and full of flavor. Venue was great as well - this was dining more like one would expect in Metro DC. I look forward to a return visit & exploring more items on the menu! read more

The atmosphere is really good here. The decor is is serene and beautiful. The food was fresh but kind of bland. It could use some seasoning.

Finally I made my way to Social. I thoroughly enjoyed Brick (their food, not their opinion on social issues). Social is a fine replacement, and the larger space with a scotch/bourbon bar attached is a nice upgrade. Overall, the ambiance is one of the best in Carlisle, if not the absolute best. The Korean ribs were delicious. The meat fell off the bone and the sauce was savory and quite nice. I also liked the she crab bisque. It had a bold flavor that made my spoon keep revisiting it for more. The fries and the wings were less of a hit. I ordered peppered orange wings but I tasted no pepper and no orange...it was very much a plain fried wings experience. The fries were also just average. They were plentiful but thin and the dipping sauces were not special at all. Overall it was a good experience, but not every food item was a hit. read more

We have been multiple times and overall have been very satisfied with the experience. I love the renovations to the space. Upscale without being stuffy. One of the nicest places in town but you would fee comfortable with any attire really. Waitstaff have been helpful with questions and management is always friendly. We have enjoyed the food. Sometimes it isn't always consistent and they have removed/changed a few of our favorite dishes but you can't really go wrong with anything. Great small plates and drinks.

WITHOUT A DOUBT, the best cheeseburger I have ever had!

A hard sugar top with a most and smooth inside! We are from Northern Virginia and I begged the hostess to open one here!

Beautiful ambiance. Great food freshly prepared. I would love to see another vegan/vegetarian entree option.

Great for small plates! We've been here several times and their apps is where it's at. If they have an entree special we'll usually check it out because they're typically great. However, their regular menu entrees are nothing to write home about. The management and staff is phenomenal and the atmosphere is great for either a date night, family dinner or spontaneous eats. read more

I was so excited to go here but the best way to describe it was lackluster. The food looked good but it was lacking flavor.
