GINO'S ITALIAN RESTAURANT LANCASTER REVIEWS

I love this place I grew up in Gino’s restaurant. It is a family oriented with amazing guests service. The restaurant has a very relaxed ambience. The place is extremely clean. They do great banquets for numerous celebrations. The hosts make you feel very comfortable. They have very good prices.

Had the IPA Ride On. So good. My dinner was good. My husband's was sorta bland. They were playing Earth Wind and Fire music. I liked it. It probably shows my age. Lol I'll be back to eat here.

Great Chicken Parmesan and a beautifully decorated setting indoors. Servers are attentive and restaurant is fully staffed. Live music on stage on some weekends.

THE RAVEN'S NEST REVIEWS

What a delightful new favorite restaurant spot! Everything was perfect--the food, the service, the atmosphere. Absolutely enchanting! I ordered the clam chowder (my new favorite soup); the truffle, honey, mushroom, and brie cheese flatbread (amazing), and the star of the show for me was the goat cheese tortellinis. That was one of the best dishes I have ever enjoyed hands down. The flavors were so complex and my mouth is drooling right now as I am thinking about it. The cook(s) know(s) what they are doing in the back and it shows!! This was truly a 5 star experience. I will absolutely be back many more times. Thank you SO much! I am so honored to have tasted your food.

The wonderful staff here went above and beyond to make sure our proposal went off beautifully. The service, the food, the vibe was incredible and they really put their heart and soul into making it an unbelievable experience. I'm so grateful for all the effort they put into our special night, truly a diamond in the rough here in Lancaster. I can't wait to be back. Thank you to all the staff, especially Amelia, for a lovely night.

Raven's Nest is my favorite place in the AV and possibly California. It has excellent food, some of the best staff I've ever met, and a very gothic atmosphere. Food is always the best, whether it's an amazing ribeye or more traditional Greek and Italian dishes. It's all top notch.

APPLEBEE'S GRILL + BAR LANCASTER REVIEWS

Hands down Lauren and Carol and Liz are the best bartenders in town!! They always go above and beyond for their guests. With a full house and they are always the only bartenders working no one was left unattended or with out anything they needed. They are more than what you expect from Applebee's. Those two are the reason we come back every time. Its nice when people cares about their craft and takes care of business. I hope management see what these two are. doing. Thank you Lauren , Liz , and Carol you ladies ROCK!!.

The food and the service is great here, especially Lauren and Liz, who are so friendly and amazing. Aleena is great hostess with a friendly smile and Alyah is friendly and helpful.

I tell you, every time I come here.I sit at the bar, and Lauren is working and she has the best customer service and attention to detail i've ever seen.
