    We had an excellent meal along with excellent service. The fig & starry drink had the right amount of sweetness. We enjoyed the wheat bread, Caesar salad, lamb shank & ravioli. All were delicious! Our dessert was the pumpkin pie. A little different from what we are used to to. See photos.

    Best steaks and fresh fish in Hershey! Revelry has a very good selection of Prime Steaks and fresh Fish, as well as some other menu classics sure to please the entire family. They also host an extended wine list and some of the most unique handcrafted cocktails. Our server, Tanya, was very helpful in guiding our menu choices from drinks to appetizers, and right through dinner and dessert. She was a delight and helped make it a very romantic dinner getaway. Most importantly, the dinner entrees were 5-Star!

    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.
