The Story of Josephine’sThe story of Josephine’s begins during our executive chef Daniel LeBoon’s childhood. At eight years old, working for his father’s catering company, Daniel discovered a passion for food. This love — and undeniable talent — saw him intern at Philadelphia’s prestigious Le Bec-Fin. He went on to work in Paris at the venerable Hotel Vernet working under the renowned chef’s Alain Solvere and Alain Ducasse. In 2004, Daniel purchased Josephine’s in Marietta and developed an extremely loyal following based on the combination of great food, great atmosphere and great hospitality. Although Josephine’s closed in 2011, the name and the experiences are fondly remembered by countless people.

The Log Cabin is a secluded yet welcoming culinary delight! The warmth and charm felt like a hug! Our server, Lauren, was engaging, informative, and clearly an asset. The menu was creative and interesting. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinners - blackened salmon Oscar and the free range chicken breast - prepared to perfection. Sincere thanks to the staff for a great dining experience.

We love the fillet of flounder sandwich as well as the fried chicken sandwich we asked for french fries to be cooked crispy and they absolutely were. Carrie is a great server. We look forward to coming back soon.

It’s worth a trip to Lancaster just to have dinner at Osteria Avanti . The dinning room is fairly small with an intimate feel. There is also a separate bar area which also serves food. The dishes are well prepared. The vegetables and meat are excellent and well prepared. The service is exceptional, attentive without being intrusive. I would highly recommend Osteria Avanti.

We were out on a rainy Tuesday evening; it was cozy with just ourselves most of the time in the back hightop bar area. Food was perfect. New smoked haddock and prawn chowder was amazing. Crusted flounder very tasty. Meredith was our bartender and server; she was delightful. We are locals and very spoiled to have the Springs and Bullshead in our back yard!

We always enjoy eating at Funck’s. Our service was great. The food was very good. I just wish the lobster tacos came with a side of something. Tortilla chips would have been great to add some crunch and interest.
