    This is the second or third time I've gotten crabs from here and have been satisfied each time. The prices are comparable to surrounding competitors, but this place has exceptional customer service! The box was still warm when I picked them up. Nice combination of spice and meaty. You can tell the owner takes pride in what he is serving. You can also place orders through their Facebook page.

    "Classy" crabs, fresh steamed gulf shrimp and Crabby eggs!!! Best Father's Day feast EVER!!!   Thank you Joe and Jeannie!

    Harvest Seasonal Grill is such a fabulous restaurant for seasonal menu with creative flair,…read moreincluding the cocktail list as well as food quality and presentation. Our most recent experience on 6/27 did not disappoint in any way and elevated our satisfaction. Megan C. was our server and she was dynamic as always. She takes time to listen, is attentive and knowledgeable. Other team members/supervisors were also friendly and were genuinely interested in feedback. For a restaurant to excel in all areas is rare. Harvest Seasonal Grill is one of the finest, and finer than some "fine dining" establishments. We enjoyed the Raspberry Yuzu Martini which was perfectly balanced. The sweet corn chowder will forever be remembered as being so delicious that we were glad we did not opt out of that since we knew we also wanted the Korean BBQ Pork Dumplings. Those were delicious with a zing of spice to keep it interesting but not be overbearing. My husband was very pleased with his Spicy Shrimp Noodle Bowl. He needed a bit more oomph and was brought siracha to please his palate. My Summer Beet Salad with added salmon was perfect, truly. The vinaigrette was light and refreshing but with lots of flavor. The peaches and beets were both fresh for the season. And a big delicious yes to the peanut butter chocolate dessert mini. It was the right size for us to share but selfishly we wanted more because the peanut butter mousse was whipped to perfection. The only bad thing for us is that the closest Harvest is about 30 minutes away in Lancaster. York desperately needs a Harvest for the consistent quality, seasonal flavors and overall high rating

    It annoys me when I see people that don't understand ratings. Lancaster people can appreciate a…read moregreat restaurant, I'm sure. Every time I go here we're all delighted. And impressed by the level of service received. All the staff is so knowledgeable and friendly. They really go way above the standard of service and quality. lol it literally angers me that they don't have 5 stars. Keep doing what you're doing, Harvest. You know there are Karens and Ken's in every facet of life. Don't let it discourage you. I've always had an amazing time I go.

The only place I've found locally where you can purchase Blue Crab meat from either the Chesapeak Bay or Louisiana. On both occasions we enjoyed fresh steamed Crabs. They were cooked perfectly with an exceptional store mixed Old Bay based seasoning. We've enjoyed their steamed shrimp which are wild caught and steamed perfectly. Their seafood bisque and the special shrimp and corn chowder is amazing. Rich, creamy, perfectly prepared chowder with just the right blend of old bay, seafood and vegetables. I've had their steamed Little Neck Clams in a white wine and garlic sauce. Delicious and served with toasted, crusty garlic bread. I have not tried their homemade Key lime pie.....yet. I plan to soon. Looking forward to trying their soft-shell crab sandwich. Mr Bills is located near Franklin and Marshall College along Harrisburg Ave. Seating is a bit limited, but there is seating inside and out. The cafe and seafood shop are house in the same space. Don't expect opulent atmosphere, but when the seafood is that good and fresh, you don't need "opulence". They have daily specials and sandwiches along with their fresh seafood. The staff is helpful, knowledgable and able to answer questions and make recommendations. I can't recommend Mr Bills more highly. Looking forward to our next visit with friends.

The servers were incredibly attentive and extremely knowledgeable. When it was time for the next course people seemed to appear with food out of nowhere serving everybody at the same time. Kudos for being the best part of this experience! The food was just okay for me. My steak was cooked great but not prepared great leaving gristle and fat that I had to cut around the edges. The circular slab of butter that came on top was just too much, reminding me of all the reasons I don't love wagyu. It just makes everything so rich. The chilled chicken soup was a big miss for all three of us that tried it. When asked how it was the best thing I could come up with was "odd". The overall vibe here is nice, however at this price point I expect excellence and I just don't get that at Gibraltar. This isn't someplace I'd seek out to come back to unfortunately.

    I'm not sure where to start except to say thar John Jeffries in one of the best dining experiences…read moreI've had in Central PA. Five absolutely well-earned stars. I visited as part of a work related event and was able to enjoy both the bar and dining room. The bar selections were first-rate and while not extensive they were well-considered. John Jeffries specializes in local farm to table ingredients. I enjoyed a watercress potato soup followed by the Puedmontese grass-fed petite beef steak. Both were absolutely delicious. The service was first-rate: friendly and attentive without being obnoxious and VERY well-trained to a level you'd expect in a much larger city. Can't wait to bring my companion back for a visit that I know she will love.

    First, I love the rustic meets modern aesthetic here. I'm a sucker for exposed brick and stone,…read moreconduit and other throwback "finishes". The hotel lobby and bar are welcoming and represent entree to this small eatery. This place features local farm items so the menu is always subject to change. We went to celebrate an anniversary (not ours) and it was a nice welcome for the server to offer the celebrants complimentary prosecco. From there, it was an adventure. Three of us had the shrimp and grits, which, uniquely, were not the typical southern dish but an earthy creation featuring very barley forward grits that also included very chunky carrots and other enhancements I am at a loss to identify. Good, but a surprise for my southern shrimp and grits-expecting palate. The shrimp were pretty overcooked and detracted from the barley-enhanced grits. Two enjoyed the wedge salad. For mains, two enjoyed the shrimp bisque, and the pan fried boneless chicken breast. I had the meatloaf and found it to be a bit gamier than expected likely due to using grass fed beef. The mushroom gravy was nice despite some of the mushrooms having gone over the rainbow bridge. The tallow fried potatoes were luscious despite one being undercooked. The desserts were interesting and all supposedly made in-house. I had the mint chocolate chip ice cream which I found somewhat grainy and crystallized and very lacking in mint flavor. The flourless chocolate cake will likely shock you with its petiteness, but trust me, it packs a wallop of richness that will probably satisfy you. The tres leches cake and honey lavender crème brûlée got high marks. Overall we all liked the ambiance, and were somewhat disappointed with the food. 3.5* rounded down to 3*.
