Mike our server, was very friendly, attentive and efficient. He has a great personality and is a single dad and a hard worker. My husband and I have a particular affinity for hard-working servers as we used to be them. We used to be the ones giving up all of our holidays to wait on others, but now we're finally benefitting from the fruits of our efforts and enjoying restaurants on holidays as customers & not servers. We both opted to get the Filet Oscar! First though was The Ststion salad with mandarins, strawberries, slivered almonds on spring mix with mango dressing. We enjoyed it so much. The chunks of sweet highest quality crab meat over perfectly cooked 8 ounce filet, Medium, was as good as it gets. The hollandaise sauce was the best I've ever had- rich, tasty and I could taste the lemon in it too- I loved it! We also got dessert! The towering chocolate cake and cream puff! I cannot wait to enjoy my leftovers! The Station has always done wonderful holidays. Valentines is no exception with tables bedecked with lovely flowers and glittery heart in a mini vase. The restaurant also provided a beautiful long stemmed rose. John and Mel run a great business and we are very happy to support them and this wonderful business. Awesome all around!

My husband and I started going to Knepper's almost two years ago when we moved into the…read moreneighborhood. I have a severe fish and shellfish allergy, which can make dining out stressful. The first time we visited, we had been painting our new house all day and just needed to grab some food. When we walked in, two waitresses were sweeping the floor--I didn't realize they were close to closing. Despite that, they warmly welcomed us and I explained my allergy. They were incredibly accommodating, even checking with the chef to ensure my meal would be safe. Every time we visit, they take such great care. They remember my allergy and have even alerted other waitstaff about it. Their genuine concern and attentiveness make every visit to Knepper's a pleasure. We truly enjoy dining here!

If you're looking for something a bit upscale, there aren't many options in this area. Based on our…read moreYelp research - the photos, the menu, and the 4+ star rating - we decided to try the Mansion House. It's a beautiful building and the chairs are comfortable. But everything else was disappointing. For starters, they sell Guinness beer - but only in cans!! Why bother? The onion rings we ordered for our appetizer seemed like something you'd find in the freezer section at Weis. The sauces provided on the side help with the taste, but they still have the made-in-a-factory texture. Not hand- battened and messy. For the main course, I ordered the salmon special which sounded delicious - cooked in some kind of bourbon-apple concoction - but it turned out to be meh! The chicken Caesar salad that my wife ordered was, if nothing else, a great value because it included what had to be over a pound of chicken! If you're the type that likes sharing entrees, you should consider the chicken Caesar salad. Overall the ambiance was nice and the service was okay, but the food was overpriced and nothing to get excited about.

I want to highly recommend the Beacon Diner in Hometown, Pa. I stopped going there for years…read morebecause in my opinion, it went downhill. Today, August 30, 2026, three of us went there for breakfast/lunch. We asked to be seated at a table. Immediately as you enter the dining room, you will notice a bright and cheery atmosphere, a clean smell, and wooden floors. There was a hustle and bustle, going on to spite that, we were seated quickly. Michelle Kunkle was our server who was very nice and friendly. The obvious changes were the rug was taken out and replaced by wooden floors, walls brightened up and redecorated. The salad bar is back with 3 different soups, which I missed. I had a Greek omelet with a side of baon, home fries with onions, and a bagel. My son had a made-to-order omelet with Canadian bacon and wheat toast. Our friend had a chicken salad, no dressing. Coffee was our beverage of choice. After eating, we wanted to make a point to speak to the owner. His name is Adam. We let him know that we appreciated the changes and would be back. I said our food was delicious!! He told us the same cooks were still there, just taught a few new methods and recipes. I am glad we went there and wanted to take the time to write a review on their behalf. If you felt skeptical because the Beacon Diner has a new owner, give it a fair chance and visit yourself. You will be glad you did! Marjorie B Fortin

The portions each time were HUGE....it's a bit pricey, but well worth the experience. I noticed the Vodka Penne on another patrons plate and it looked SO good. I eventually ordered the Scampi Extreme (or something similar) Gnocchi, shrimp and scallops in a lemon butter sauce - I left stuffed. The garlic bread was infused with garlic...warm and buttery. I recently saw a report where the average chain restaurant was experiencing a "low" in patronage - it's because the average chain restaurant offers basic high-priced trash.... THIS place... again, a bit pricey, but you get fresh, well-thought-out options and portions that you'll have to take with you. My dining partner ordered the baked ziti and it was huge - she had to take most of it home so I'll get a crack at it later this evening . In any event, give this please a try if you're in the area.
