Cabalar. Best burger in Lancaster…read more Now their specials are always LEGIT. Lancaster Restaurant Week was serving up a Jibarito, corned beef, fried plantains, melted cooper, pickled onions, and mayoketchup. The sandwich was incredible! Such a good touch on a cultural favorite! I myself prefer it without pickled onions, but if you love onions, this is perfect! Cabalar is massively popular and will always require a decent wait for made to order items. I believe we waited about 25 minutes for this sandwich. Love the green and white throughout the restaurant. Awesome shirts for sale. The decor in here is awesome with paintings everywhere. Tons of seating and kids area upstairs!

The experience of brand new Greek and Italian flavors at Mandros Imported Foods…read more The visit to the store taught me about the diversity of Italian pantry staples. The shelves are packed with a huge selection of imported canned goods, pasta, cheeses, and so on. With the authentic ingredients imported directly from Europe, you can taste the origin of foods. Like the Parma prosciutto, the cured meat made under strict regulation in Italy with its mixed salty and sweet flavor. On the shelves, the cheese, tea, pickles are carefully catagorized and varied by type -- definately helpful for customers to find their hometown flavors. The wall decorations, includeing old photos and a map of Pennsylvania cheese, adding a real European vibe to the store.The store is not only a good place to seek for authentic ingredients for your meals, but also a wonderful spot to learn about European culture.

John Herr's is one of the independent markets that remain around Lancaster. In Millersville, it…read morefeels like a small-town market, which is good. Herr's was possibly the last grocery store around here to use scanners. I can still recall the checkout line, as an adult, where the checker actually keyed in every item. It was impressive that they rarely needed a price check on anything. They use scanners now and even have self-checkout, so everything's up to date in Millersville. Besides being a full-service grocer, Herr's offers a nice salad bar and eight soups every day, along with the usual fried/roasted chicken and other fried treats, along with sandwiches, for lunch. I'm a sucker for those Amish baked lima beans -- not the healthiest version of lima beans, but a local treat. Most local residents would point to Herr's meat counter as a strong point. They still cut and sell meat like the real butcher shop of the old days, and the people behind the counter seem pretty knowledgeable if you have a question. The big stores with their shrink-wrapped everything don't offer this anymore.

I really want to give it 3.5 stars but there's nothing really wrong to give it 3. I was there late…read morein the day about 7pm so take that into account. Very clean, good location and plenty of comfortable, outdoor seating. However the prepared foods are really lacking, especially compared to other Whole Foods. No sandwiches at all and sad pizza. However the Greek-style and salad bars are excellent and a decent value. Again, with a caveat: they use sunflower instead of olive oil. Why?? They have their own brand of excellent olive oil, why wouldn't they use that on their dolmas? Such a weird decision. It's not like you need the prepared foods to be shelf stable. Of course it tastes just like sunflower oil instead of olive oil. Sad. Otherwise the dolmas are really good, not dry or rubbery like they can be. Changing out the oil brought the flavor up from a 4 to a 7. The place is pretty small, maybe half the size of a typical grocery store. The alcohol section is tiny and picked through, The freshest breads sold out. Even saw a guy buy out their entire stock of 3 12-packs of farmhouse ale. If the place was bigger then they could have the foot traffic to offer more prepared foods and a larger stock. There's really no deli section, butcher or seafood section. They got rid of their house brand cold press juices which were excellent and priced well compared to the competition. The actual whole foods (cereals and beans) was not stocked for the most desirable stuff like black rice. Maybe 20% out of stock and the other 10% was clearly not stocked in a very long time. They did have buckwheat groats at $5.50/lb though which is fantastic. I think the Greek food and salad bar is the only redeeming quality because it's a good price and was fresh and stocked. Just be sure to poor off the oil and add your own olive oil and it tastes much better that way. If you're careful and observant you can find some good deals and rare products not stocked anywhere else.
