Everything was so good! Went last night. The Cornish hen was delish and the pork shank was to die for! The prices are very reasonable and our server, Katrina, was lovely! Can't wait to go back! read more

Came for lunch...my gf and I shared the seafood app, small portion but tasty. For lunch, we both ordered the ribs. They were tender, a little fatty and tasted ok. The portion size was terrible though. Three ribs, 3 small pieces of broccoli and I ordered double veggies so Brussels sprouts swimming in syrup. Overall, an average meal with small portions for the price read more

Excellent food and service. The staff is super friendly and helpful. We visited the Inn on a Sunday and Brooklyn the bartender was so polite and friendly! definitely will be back. HIGHLY recommend this gem! read more

Giving this place 1 star is generous, since there wasnt a 0 star review option. Went to this place on a whim since the original dinner plan fell through. Our group was seated right away. When our group ordered, we were told multiple different times that various menu items were not in stock. The waitress was somewhat attentive, however it took almost an hour for apps. Dinner did not come til almost 2 hours after ordered. Wait staff said the manager quit and they were unsure why there were delays/short food supply. Food was mediocre at best and not worth the wait/frustration. There were 3 tables that waited just as long and never got their food to the point where they canceled the food order and walked out. This restaurant should be ashamed to even be open without proper management! read more

Last minute Mothers Day plans with 7 people. We decided to give someplace different a try. The place was very welcoming with a log cabin appearance. Country atmosphere inside. The service was very good. Our waitress was friendly polite and attentive. We didn't see any Mothers Day information on their website so we were anticipating the regular menu. We were given a limited short menu with some decent looking selections. Drinks were good. The Bloody Mary was nice a spicy. The meal is where it went a little sideways. The seafood eggs Benedict was good but 3 of us had chickens and waffles. The chicken was cooked well with a nice panko crust. There was really no seasoning on it at all. It was bland. The waffles is something they need to completely rethink. All three orders of waffles were rock hard. I mean loud when banging on the plate hard. Told the waitress who was very polite about it. More waffles came out and were soft but not tasty at all. Honestly the worst waffles I ever had and I like waffles. We were told they were homemade but we all felt they were frozen and microwaved. Might be tough to convince the family to go back for the regular menu. Sad cause it was a nice place and only 30 minutes from home. read more

Cozy place and staff is friendly but everything else is very average. It's a shame because the place has a ton of potential but it clearly needs some improvements read more

Place is adorable! Such a cute & cozy atmosphere. We got the tomahawk steak, split it. It was delicious. Cooked to perfection. Apps were great. Kerry's a great mixologist. 10 out of 10. Cant wait to go back! read more

The food was amazing and came out quickly. Staff was VERY attentive. The ambiance is a rustic cabin decor and perfectly goes with the menu choices read more

Excellent food, Excellent service. The staff is super friendly and we come back often. Highly reccomend Promised Land Inn.

We made reservations at the The Promised Land Inn. When we arrived on last Friday evening, the restaurant was not full. The bar area was pretty rowdy and loud (someone was celebrating a birthday). They were having a great time. The hostesses / waitresses sat us in a larger booth at the back of the restaurant. We started with the Mozzarella Moons for our appetizer. These were good. A little heavy on the breading, but they had a good flavor. I liked the marinara sauce. For my main meal, I had the NY Strip Streak. I ordered a baked potato and it came with seasoned vegetables. The steak was cooked perfectly ( med rare). But, the steak was covered in a demiglaze sauce. The menu stated w/ garlic butter. The Demi had a good flavor, but not what I wanted that evening. Usually, I am pretty easy going, but restaurants that charge for the third refill on iced tea ( if there was a mention in the menu of only one free refill, then no issues), is pretty sad. I was also drinking coors light bottles. In addition, when you looked up at the light fixtures and air conditioning unit from our booth, they were filthy with a heavy covering of dust. They might want to clean them before the summer. At least the table and booth was clean. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant. read more

Had lunch with my Mrs. on June 16. We were the only people in there which made me nervous at first. I ordered the filet mignon and my wife has some appetizer. I don't even remember. The service was great. The drinks were tasty, and my steak was cooked perfectly. Next time in the area I will return. read more

Great burgers! They let dogs there. Service has never been good. Decide for your self.

This place never disappoints. Off the beaten path, but worth it. Steaks are amazing. They always have the tomahawk if you're in the mood. Their mozzarella moons are excellent as is everything on the menu. Love the decor. In the summer we bring the dogs and sit outside. read more

The décor is very interesting, like a hunting club with the stuffed fox, bobcat, and moose head hanging combined with a log cabin. Interior is pretty nice and fitting of the locale; typical brown shades, light and dark. There is a fireplace in the center, wonder if it gets used during winter months. The wait staff was nice, friendly, and patient, but the kitchen service was not very good. We had a party of nine but three four tops were fired and served well before we were. The menu looks more interesting than the food really is. Two of us had the elk burger and they came to us completely hammered and dry. My sister in law had a chicken sandwich that was over cooked and dry. I got the giant pretzel appetizer and that was good. The cheese and honey mustard went well. Fries are always tasty and they season theirs so that's a plus. One of us got the bougie grilled cheese and they said it was great. Two got the cornish game hens and I'm jealous I didn't get a meal instead. My wife had the chicken parm flatbread which she liked. Prices range from cheap to expensive which is cool; something for everyone. Drink selection is good too; beer prices aren't too bad. Overall not a bad place but some misses prevent it from being better than good. It's also quite far from me so dining here would have to be only for special occasions. read more

After 10 years of living in the area we have finally made our way in for a quick dinner. We both ordered the PLI burgers and were pleasantly surprised at how yummy it was. We also had the mozzarella appetizer which was super tasty. We were pleased at how pup friendly they were as we rarely make it out since we love having our pup as part of our family and don't like leaving him home alone. We will definitely be back again. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

This was the first time my husband and I tried out this place and we'll definitely will be returning. My husband and I absolutely loved this place . We absolutely loved in how everything was homemade and made from scratch . We also decided to sit at the bar and we had a amazing waitress Melissa she explained everything so well. We highly recommend anyone to come here and definitely have a homemade meal . It's definitely worth the wait . read more

Just had our first dinner there, and loved it. Our waitress was Sophia, and I'm fairly sure she is possibly the nicest waitress we have ever had, (anywhere!) The meal was fantastic. The chef's bread and butter was to die for. I had the BLT, and it was perfect. So much bacon, and really fresh veggies. It did not disappoint. My daughter had the chicken sandwich (Hen House), and loved it too. The chicken was nicely marinated, and not dry at all. The bun it came on was also very fresh. We overheard the waitress telling someone about the special crab bisque and of course we had to try it. 10 out of 10 would recommend it. Seriously I can't imagine how this place doesn't have all 5 star reviews. One of the best meals we have ever had in the Poconos. Looking forward to going back soon. read more

Friends have been here many times. We went with them Friday. Ambiance is nice but .... Short staffing led to inattention to table, sides came out cold, resent out lukewarm, small portions vs price. read more

One of the most memorable places I've been to in terms of inside decor. We went to Promised Land for our anniversary. Although we were a bit under the weather, it was a bright spot in our weekend to get to PLI. The burger was thick and tasty. The onion rings were dense too. I wish the wings were a bit meatier and saucier for the price. Nice to support this cozy business read more

Your original response was great. Whoever added the last part about the video footage should reconsider the tone they use with customers.. we had a bad experience and that's all there is to it. Own it. The fact that you sat down and watched us eat and then went as far as timing it is incredibly bizarre and unnerving. Scary. read more

I wish I could review the food, atmosphere inside the place the service, quality of the beer selection or the speciality drinks. But I cannot. It's 12:23 on a Thursday and they aren't open. Now the sign out front says they open at 12. But, after arriving at 12 and sitting on the front deck area, no sign of life. Then at about 12:05 or so a Cinta truck pulls in. The driver goes around back. A few minutes later I see him putting a new rug out in the entryway. Surely someone is inside. So I call. No answer goes to voicemail. A few minutes later, a flash of light. The kitchen door swung open. Surely this is someone rushing to get open! No such luck. The putter around for two minutes then go back into the kitchen. It's now been 23 minutes. So I'm off. The exterior is nice from a distance. But, once you sit outside for over 20 minutes you notice the cob webs right at the entrance. Overall not a great sign of keeping up appearances. read more

My family and I have visited this place many times. It is always clean, welcoming and enjoyable. The food is great, service and ambiance are a step above. The dining room is very relaxed and country, just the way I like it. Each staff member is attentive and friendly. It is one of my favorite places to go. Promised Land Inn has a nice, cozy aura around it. Try it , you will really enjoy it. I give it 5 stars. read more

We have visited this establishment 3 times. The food is good and we really like the beat salad. But you need to understand that it is a small place with a small staff. We go with family and are not in a hurry. If you want your main course in less than an hour when they are busy do not go. We had good conversation and drinks and did not mind the wait. But with only a few waitresses and I assume one cook things do not come out fast. So just chill and enjoy or pick another place. read more

dynamite food and drinks in a local restaurant! we had the onion rings, elk burger, fries, and french onion soup. I would definitely go back for more! Highly recommend the elk burger if you haven't tried it before. read more

Always a great meal at PLI. My favorite is the Roasted Beet Salad with Grilled Shrimp. Healthy and delicious. I've been there several times and never a bad experience. When you have great experiences at various places, it always makes me wonder if the folks writing negative reviews were really customers or trolls. read more

Jeff - this is what we experienced. We have Ben to the Promised Land Inn many times and we're looking forward to diner that night. We couldn't have been more disappointed. What I said happened - we were served small drink cups and were most definitely charged for refills. There was a sign at the door explaining that because costs have gone up the restaurant prices had gone up. It was a bad experience. Maybe we will give it another try this summer. I find it odd that it took 6 months to respond to my review. read more

Service was so slow not crowded at all We ordered 2 burgers both were over cooked.i got waffle fries maby I got 5 waffle fries rest was crumbs and old French fries. read more

It looked like a beautiful place. We were seated quickly and the place filled up quickly. We ordered ribs, wings, and soup. - The French onion soup can out quickly and was very tasty. We then waited abut 40 plus minutes for our entrees to come out. - The wings were pretty good. Tasted great and were crispy. Not much sauce on them. Also two were stuck together and one was therefore undercooked. - And then there were the ribs. The order consisted of 4 huge ribs with a very thick coating of dry rub, so much so that we had to scrape it off. Unfortunately that wasn't the worse part - three of the ribs were cool to the touch and actually cold inside. The combination made them inedible. The management did offer another entree or drinks or dessert, but by this time we had enough. read more

Can't agree with any of the negative reviews of this restaurant. Food, service, and atmosphere were all excellent. Half bbq chicken and pork shank were delicious. Waitress took the time to describe every special in detail. read more

First timer lunch on a Saturday in July. Super welcoming, food (wings, beet salad, angry hen sandwich) between my husband and I was awesome. Ambiance and log cabin decor was super cool and perfect for our camping weekend. So happy we stopped and will definitely be back! read more

Was smart and made a reservation this time. My husband had the lamb and it was perfectly cooked. The potatos and green beans were good. The portion was huge! 4 double pieces and he could barley finish it. I had the salmon with smashed garlic potatos and burnt brussels sprouts and everything was amazing. Wait time for food was a little bit longer than should be but totally worth it! Our server Laurie and the two young men that were helping were on point! Definitely one of the best places in the Poconos to eat!!! read more

We had a fantastic dinner with wonderful service. We sat at the bar. We had the pulled pork flat bread and drinks to start. Sooooo good! My husband had a burger and it was cooked to his liking, full of flavor and the fries were good. I had the pork shank with real mashed potatoes and fresh veggies steamed. It was absolutely delish! Our time spent there was pleasant and we will definitely be back especially for date night! It is a family friendly place, casual dress code, but nice enough for dates. read more

A textbook example of a tourist trap with high prices on food and drinks. Burger and grilled chicken were near flavorless and, and the burger had a slice of cheddar instead of the "white queso sauce" in the description. The burger itself was well done when I requested medium, yet ironically, the bacon on it was undercooked. Service was slow and not particularly accommodative, though the workers were polite. The place itself was a nice ambiance and clean, but feels akin to the other overpriced burger places I've been to. Regulars will probably tell you it's the best food they've ever eaten. read more

Ordered the beet salad and an eagle knows best sandwich for take out to bring up to the lake. The food was decent. Very over priced for what we got (over $43) and they did not have silverware so we had to spend additional $ to buy some to eat the salad. Would not recommend better off stopping at Mountainhouse Tavern up the road. read more

Great food a little pricey but not to be unexpected. Great service, and the people from the community were very friendly. We have eaten here a few times and every time we leave full, happy, and grateful. read more

Tried lunch this weekend. Elk burger was undercooked. She will not send food back to the kitchen due to very negative issues with other restaurants. Pricy for a elk burger. Wagu burger was cooked correctly & fries were good. Appetizer was disappointing. Ordered fried pickles and it looked like a 1/2 order. Definitely not worth the price. Wait staff hustled to get all served. Based on prices and size of plates I could only rate 3 stars. Not sure if we will go back. read more

Beer on tap and a number of different burgers that have elk or other wild game meat. Outdoor seating. Overall, the food was okay but priced high for the serving sizes. Understaffed for service as well but we had a great server. read more
