Good quality ingredients, well seasoned and perfectly prepared. The chaufa fried rice was totally on point... aged rice with just the right level of wok hei (yes I know it's a Peruvian restaurant but good technique is good technique). They ran out of their grilled chicken early so have to try that another time. Place looks new and clean, and was packed when we arrived at 6pm so thankfully they took reservations. Service was so nice and friendly. Easy street parking in a less crowded part of town. Absolutely a must stop whenever we are in the area again in the future.

Last night my wife and I visited the Apollo grill for the first time celebrating our 32nd wedding…read moreAnniversary traveling 1 hour. The atmosphere was very nice, our server was engaging , and the featured entrees had great flavor. Unfortunately we both ordered the highly recommended oysters for our appetizers. $23.00/6 x 2 When served they were essentially oyster skins with no substance. We mentioned this to our server who agreed that this batch was unusually very small. We made mention of our disappointment to the hostess at our departure. She was kind enough to remove 1 order from our final bill which still left us paying $23.00/0 oysters.. If the product is not consistent with advertised expectations, apologize for this inconvenience and remove from current availability. Hopefully you can address this issue better for other guests.

On a Saturday night on the first weekend in February, my girlfriend and I visited Apollo Grill for…read morethe first time -- finally! We were seated right away in an open format atmosphere with the best balance of light and dark. The bar across from us looked fantastic. What we noticed right from the start is how well the staff works with and for each other to bring guests the best dining experience possible. Maddie was our server. She was kind, professional, patient, and knowledgable about both food and drink on a grand scale. Her recommendations were stellar. I had a refreshing gin and basil martini as well as their beef carpaccio, which was absolutely fantastic. My girlfriend started with their beef stew, which was thick and satisfying. It was so delicious, she almost canceled her entree to have more. She went with the home cooking route and indulged in their meatloaf with green beans and mashed potatoes. Although she loved that as well, half had to come home with her, which made for an excellent lunch the next day. I went with the raw of it all and got their spectacular tuna tartare with asparagus, radish, and rice. Usually, the tuna is cut into strips but this tremendous block of gorgeous fish knocked me out. Absolutely fantastic from presentation to flavor. For dessert, we got their brownie with ice cream and this was all upper level in taste and texture. I would be shocked if their ice cream hadn't been made in-house. We loved our first experience with Apollo and we look forward to our next visit, which is hopefully sooner than later.

3 times and 3 hits entirely out of the park…read more On our recent visit we were seated at some what of a community table which initially we weren't thrilled about but how they have it set up it truly feels like you're alone at the table, it helped that the other couple was a delight. We ordered the Caesar salad (phenomenal) The steak tartare, just divine perfection The waitress heard me talking about the sweat breads from the chicken dish (that I wasn't ordering, I'll explain shortly) and said the chef could do them as a side dish, DELICIOUS!!! My husband got the world's largest most delicious pork chop. Now, my meal. I ordered the halibut and recognized that perhaps it wasn't for me, but I ordered it it was my choice I wasn't going to send it back. Our waitress took note that I wasn't eating and told me that simply would not do and hustled to the kitchen to come out with the chicken dish, I was so appreciative of her noticing and accommodating this, truly, amazing service and that chicken was succulent beyond words! We also got 3 of the desserts, the seasonal eggnog bread pudding, the cinnamon raisin bread pudding which was insanely delicious as I personally am not a huge bread pudding fan but if every bread pudding was this? That would be my go to! And of course the butterscotch pudding which better never leave the menu because it is lick your plate delicious!!! I also enjoyed a hot cocktail which on a cold night was heavenly. Bolete is such an incredible culinary journey that we specifically go there from our home state because we know it will always be inviting, delicious and warm with heart and soul from the chef and staff.

I…read morescoured online looking for something special and unique in the Allentown and Bolete was an immediate 'yes'. Their farm-to-table approach means a rotating menu and selection of curated ingredients that make up stunning dishes. From appetizer to dessert (which sadly we didnt have room for) the menu is thoughtful and intentional. Starting with cocktails - the famous Sleigh Bells Ring (featured on the cover of Edible Magazine) was perfection. Not too sweet, warming and tart with the mescal and boozy cranberry sauce- and incredible concoction. The Dark Love Story was equally seductive with a vodka base and aperitif blend with red wine reduction. The thought they put into their menu doesnt just stop at food! We were torn between starters but the Tartare was our pick and an excellent one. The egg was golden, the capers crisp, and the truffle aoili was never overpowering. The housemade crisp chips were a welcome change from the often offered toast bites while still being an elevated dish. The potato crsted cod was served beautifully with a lobster broth poured table-aide and was accompanied by fresh clams, shrimp, and mussels- honestly not a critique to be found. The grilled Chipotle flank steak was cooked to perfection and the hen of the woods mushroom was a showstopper. All in all I struggled to not make a reservation for every night I was in town because it is a must to go back. The decor and staff arw welcoming and as thoughtful as the meals served with mushrooms present all throughout complimenting the Bolete name. 10/10 all around.

Hands down, this is the BEST Southern restaurant in the area... by far. Honestly, I don't even know…read morewhere to begin. I'm from New York, and my sister moved to Pennsylvania, so she introduced me to this spot. Now every single time I visit her, I somehow end up right back here because the food is just that good. They used to have a second location that closed, but honestly, it doesn't even matter because this one was always my favorite, the food here is on another level. We always start with the Brussels sprouts, the fried green tomatoes, or the hush puppies. You simply cannot go wrong with any of them. The appetizers are always hot, fresh, and packed with flavor. And then there's the mac and cheese... absolutely to die for. Even the children's mac and cheese is ridiculously good. Creamy, cheesy, comforting, exactly how mac and cheese should be. Their salads deserve their own shoutout too. The goat cheese salad with pickled eggs is perfection, and the Caesar with cornbread croutons? Genius. It's the kind of detail you don't expect but end up craving every time you think about it. But of course, the real star of the entire place is the cornbread. Truly heavenly. They serve it warm, and the whipped butter melts right into it, it's honestly dangerous how good it is. I could eat the entire dish by myself without hesitation. The service is always great, quick, friendly, and welcoming. It's one of those places where the vibes feel just as good as the food tastes. On weekends, it does get packed, so making a reservation is probably a smart idea. All in all, I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant. The food, the atmosphere, the consistency, everything hits. I will always come back whenever I'm in the area, and yes... mostly because the cornbread is truly that good.

She fielded any questions with ease and her recommendations were exceptional. My girlfriend loved her cosmopolitan and my martini with blue cheese stuffed olives was phenomenal. The artichoke and spinach dip was both plentiful and flavorful. The tuna tartare was a bit dry yet delicious. But that grilled octopus was on a completely different level of flavor and texture. Truly fantastic. Whether you're here for lunch or dinner, the menu is incredible. Many thanks again to Veronica for her kindness and for her professionalism!

Food is fair- was disappointed after reading the reviews…read more We had the steak that cooks at the table- supposed to be a 600 degree slab it cooks on right in front of you. It obviously was not hot enough- it didn't even sear the steak. After taking too long & it was obvious it wasn't going to cook on the slab we sent it back for them to grill in the kitchen- after that it was fine but not seasoned at all- just a plain lice of steak. The lamb shank was returned to the kitchen as it was tasteless. Appetizers were tasteless as well- ravioli & octopus. Got a burger instead which was fine. The tacos were fair- little taste & lukewarm. Same for the pork mignon. Not a place I'd return to. Service was fair along with the ambiance- kind of boring.

Anyway, my wife and I show up and are told it's a fifty minute wait, so we decide to drive to a local restuarant/bar and have a drink. Fifty minutes later we come back and are seated. We each order two rolls, and figure if they're good, we would order another. The waiter, a bearded dude with a beanie, that looks like he should be smoking weed on a lobster boat off the coast of Maine, was nice, but a bit "out there." Anyway, fifty minutes later we are still waiting for our rolls. We are a bit hungery seeing it was now 8PM (we showed up at 6PM, and still no food. So my wife asks the lobsterman where our food was. He said, "we're not quick here" and moved on, fifteen minutes later, our food arrives, and for the most part, the sushi was very good, but waiting over an hour for four rolls is insane. Also, it was a BYOB, so during the long wait they recommended Joe's down the street to get beer. Joe's is cash only, so I had to use their ATM which charged me a $3 service charge, and $17 for a six pack, plus I gave the guy a $3 tip, so it cost me $23 for a six pack of beer. Upon finishing out rolls my wife asked if I wanted to split on more roll. By this time, it was 8:30 and there was no way I was waiting till 9:30 for one more roll. We asked for a check and put our credit card on the table we like to use for air miles. Lobsterman then told us cash only, lol, so I hiked to the nearest 7/11 and paid a $4 service fee. The moral of the story, bring cash, bring your own beer, bring a lot of patience, and you should enjoy your sushi, which was good. Oh yeah, the men's bathroom literally has a toilet that comes up to the middle of my shin. It looks like something you'd see at a preschool for kids. I only had to pee, but for the guys who work there, I have no idea what they do when the have to do #2. SMH. The place is a bit surreal and I will not be going back.
