   Well curated, edgy brunch menu accompanied by excellent craft cocktails. Hidden in a Hilton and I expect as an independent store front it would be a tough reservation to get. Great, friendly service. The hotel lobby vibe takes a point or two away as do the Pittsburgh/Philadelphia prices for drinks but it’s well worth it. You won’t go away hungry

   Never thought a cabbage “steak” could taste so good!

   1-17-25 Extremely rude host this evening, so much so that we made reservations at another establishment and left. You all know who I am talking about. Lose the Nurse Rached attitude at check-in. Disgusting behavior by this individual.

   We can’t think of any place better to spend New Year’s Eve than Harrisburg Hilton, Hotel! Ad Lib was wonderful.

   Brunch is great but no more Bloody Mary bar because there is just not a lot of people there- parking fee is absurd though. Mobley bread was yummy and service was great plus all the food was great. There’s also a guitar player during brunch

   Dylan was our server and he was attentive and polite. Our food was very good and not outrageously priced. Oysters were fresh, nice portion of halibut, and a calamari dish that was a little spicy and distinctive. Recommend.

   Everyone enjoyed their meals but my salmon salad was so drenched in dressing it was almost inedible. Otherwise it would have been delicious

    The whipped feta was amazing, as were the meatballs and French martini. Great service as well. We happened to be there during happy hour, and it was so loud that we had difficulty communicating across the table from each other. The sound seems to echo/carry quite a bit. Otherwise, we had a great experience.
