    Blackberry margarita
    Veronica N.

    Beautiful restaurant in a historic building and it was decorated nicely for Christmas. Our server was very informative and checked on us at appropriate intervals. Our party of 4 ordered 3 appetizers: the cheese board, the short rib eggrolls, and the New England clam chowder. The clam chowder had wonderful flavors, but did seem to be lacking in actual clam meat. The PA Preferred cheese board was a nice selection of soft and hard cheeses and paired nicely with the honey, fruit and bread. The egg rolls were excellent and I would have loved to have had an entree that was based around the short rib as it was that good! I ordered the grilled NY strip as my entree. The dauphine potatoes were wonderful with a crisp top and gooey interior. My steak, however, was a bit disappointing. It was cooked to the requested medium-rare temperature but did not have much flavor on it's own. The bordelaise sauce was very good and had a nice acid balance. The steak was just not seasoned as well as you'd hope. There was also a lot of sinew that was difficult to work around. My husband ordered the scallops on special that evening. The scallops were cooked to a perfect level, but the rice had bits that were hard & undercooked. I was expecting top-level food as the head chef/owner served not one, but three US Presidents. The cocktails and wine selection were a high point. We had a regular old fashioned and a blackberry margarita that were absolutely divine! We split a bottle of the Primarius pinot noir from Oregon and all enjoyed that as well. Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience.

    A true delight in the Lancaster area!! The Greenfield Restaurant accommodated our very large party for a business dinner a few months ago. No flaws, and exceptional service. A classy, homey restaurant. Drinks- great! My gauge is always if a place knows how to make my drink signature- a dirty martini with Bombay Sapphire. No vermouth here to be found, it sipped lovingly!!! And for food, after many apps, entrees and desserts with all of our 14, I don't think there was a plate left uncleared. We had the upper, private dinner area. Our server was exceptional- attentive, timed check-ins and orders well taken and delivered. Food was paced appropriately and brought all together - for that many people and when a configuration of stairs is involved for kitchen and bar this is no small feat. For the group, much of the menu was tackled. No complaints whatsoever. Probably the unsung hero of apps was the house smoked salmon dip. Entree favorites were the pork schnitzel and scallops. Homemade spaetzle made those with the pork so happy. Thin, crispy, a beautiful plate with accompaniments. The scallops - Who doesn't love a meal with inspiration? Scallops.....and beech mushrooms! Give Me More!!! Delicious, quirky and unexpected. THIS will be readapted as inspiration. And dessert, I hardly ever eat dessert. But when hearing they had a salted caramel ice cream. Yes and yes! Perfect, creamy ending. Through consistency in service and flavorfulness in food The Greenfield Restaurant should be a Lancaster staple and deserves filled seats for a long time to come!!!

    Service was great. Ambiance was charming. I was expecting more with the food. The steak was cooked as asked, but the potatoes were under cooked. Cocktails were delicious. Dessert, we ordered the fresh lemon curd tart with fresh berries and the tart was undercooked. Overall, great place for drinks but the food was just okay. Was expecting more.

    For appetizers we had the fresh calamari and Jumbo shrimp. for dinner we had the pan seared scallops George's Bank scallops and the grilled petite filet mignon For dessert we had a cream puff and creme brulee Everything was cooked to perfection. I don't like sea scallops but these scallops melted in your mouth and were awesome The service we had from the waitress was excellent. She kept on checking on us to see how we were doing. we had a gluten free requirement and she made sure the needs for it were met

    Looks great but undercooked and tasteless Scottish Salmon

    Our first time & last! Honestly, quite a disappointment! This restaurant was situated in a beautiful area. While quite lovely inside, especially the patio area, our experience was not pleasing to us at all and most importantly, our palates. First, the hostess was very welcoming and pleasant. She wished me a happy birthday as she seated us at our table. There was a card from the staff wishing me a happy bday which was a nice touch. We were seated 15 mins before our server Amy finally stopped by and took our drink orders. Although they were simply 2 waters & an iced tea, it took another good 15mins before she returned. Hubby observed that she was also servicing the downstairs area as well which would later explain why our service suffered. We ordered the Onion & "soup of the day" Mushroom soup. My (warm) onion soup was delicious while the (warm) mushroom was not impressive. Hubby referred to it as straight from the can. In fact, he said canned soup would have been better. Perhaps, adding fresh whole/slithers of mushroom would enhance its flavor and presentation. Our salads were fresh and tasty. Nothing fancy. We waited for a considerable amount of time before the (manager) delivered our entrees. The Scottish Salmon Filet over the bland gnocchi, (why gnocchi?‍), with broccolini for me. Linguini Seafood Pasta dish for hubby. This dish was so ridiculously small in portion, literally about a cup of pasta, unseared, tasteless (3) scallops, (2) shrimp, (4)small clams...for $29. Are you kidding me! And no offering of seasoning toppings parmesan cheese/red pepper) to enhance this tasteless creation. And to top it off, the dishes were barely warm and undercooked. And, who plates a fish dish without lemon? A surprised Amy flew by mins later after the manager dropped off our dishes and quickly left. I asked the other waitress if she could get Amy for us as our dishes were under-temperature and needed to be reheated. Look at the pic below and you can see it's not fully cooked. We waited for Amy to take our plates away & take our dessert order. We really wanted to try the pecan pie, hubs favorite. We sat for a good time before Amy dropped off the dessert menu, then we sat more waiting for her to come back to take the order. 10 mins flew by...okay, (another 15mins?) NO THANK YOU Amy! CHECK PLEASE!!! Guess what, lol...we never saw Amy again as it was no surprise....she must've been delayed, as the customers downstairs were more important to her than we were...we had to leave the check payment on the table....oh, on our way out, the manager thanked us for coming...Happy Birthday to me!!! Conclusion- A beautiful restaurant. Decent menu. (Needs seasoning adjustments) Service-I'm sure is better than we experienced...and definitely NOT worth the price....HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED!!!

    I found this restaurant by chance while in Lancaster and looking for outdoor seating. I feel fortunate to have lucked upon this gem without realizing it is partially set in a 1700s home and also the chef studied in France and worked in the American White House for three sitting presidents. I do not understand how this place doesn't have five stars on Yelp. The food was phenomenal (and I say this living in NYC for 19 years with plenty of fantastic cuisine). Even the bread and butter was exceptional. Highly recommend, do not miss an opportunity to eat here!

    Excellent food, atmosphere, & great service from the staff. We had an amazing time for Valentines Dinner, can't wait to come back and dine again.

    Halibut special on gnocchi
    Diana S.

    Delightful! Beautiful patio. Drinks were excellent. We had a Manhattan and a type of sour old fashioned and loved both. Nice warm bread is complementary to start. Husband had halibut on gnocchi and said it was very good. I had a lobster tail which came with potatoes, vegetables and a salad all for $40 and it was a big tail. Loved it! Service was very good.

    Cheese plate. Everything served with this was amazing! Date bread was so good!
    Fay K.

    The ambience was nice, the decor pleasant, the service was great and the food was exquisite! We had French onion soup, filet mignon, and the scallops dish. The soup was the best French onion soup I ever had! The filet mignon was cooked to order, the scallops were fresh and delicious. The only two things I would give a critique on were the cheesy scalloped potatoes and corn risotto. The taste of the potatoes was great but the presentation didn't quite match the elegance of the dish. The corn risotto had a bit of a flour taste as is the rue wasn't cooked thoroughly. Other than that, I would highly recommend this place for a special event or a romantic evening out. The night we went had a jazz trio and they were amazing! The singer was awesome!

And, within reason, you can customise these trays with communication with the business. For example, my husband and I do not consume anything that contains alcohol including wine flavoured cheeses and such, and I communicated that to graze, they took care of it without a problem. One of the additional benefits of going with trays or catering from graze is being able to try locally sourced products and ingredients. Some of the breads, jams and honeys I've gotten on my trays have become favorites. I've been home, sick this week, and craving Grazing board. I wish they were closer to Harrisburg!!

From our very first meeting with her, when we were just inquiring about food vendors, Jennifer walked us through all of Simply From Scratch's services, and we were even offered some samples of food selections that piqued our interest. After hiring them as our caterers, Jennifer provided a detailed schedule of check-in meetings, reassuring us the entire time that they valued our choices and ensuring that our selections were noted. For example, my husband and I are not big cake people, and we knew we wanted pie for our fall wedding instead. Not only was Jennifer delighted by something different, but she and her team came up with the most stunning and delicious pie table for our wedding, complete with pecan pie bites that we still drool over when we think of them to this day! They also worked with us to come up with the yummiest signature cocktails that all of our guests were raving about. And the food itself was AMAZING! The presentation alone was a knockout! The team on our wedding day was also extremely professional and did such a wonderful job setting up, serving all of our guests, and cleaning/packing up everything afterward. Lastly, the team they worked with at Queen Street Linens for the table linens and napkins was just superb. They collectively took our fall color palette for our wedding and executed it beautifully. Hiring Simply from Scratch is a no-brainer - they cover food, dessert, bar, cutlery, and linens, and do it all in such a kind-hearted and professional manner!
