    Oysters - Super Fresh
    Bobby I.

    Great food and service. Handled my large group well. All food ordered was of 5 star steakhouse quality. Definitely plan to come here again!

    Watermelon Salad

    More and more I realize this restaurant isn't consistent. It's either really good or mediocre. Unfortunately this was a mediocre experience. Service slower than usual. It's never fast, but it took over 15 minutes just to get the bread. Didn't like the area we were seated in as one person is facing a wall. The food was a salt bomb. Didn't like the beet salad and the Gnocchi with Bay Scallops could have come straight from the Atlantic Ocean. Probably should be dropping it down to three stars, but will give it another try, order something else and see how I feel going forward eating here.

    Twin Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes.  By far the best thing I tasted here. Flavor didn't miss, and definitely going back just because of it. $24

    Nice quiet chill spot. I was at the bar and not too many people there. I was served quickly. The food was very flavorful.

    We waited forever for our food but when it came out. It was amazing. The butternut squash puree was genius under the Salmon

    Service was slow and they can't access their Yelp account to update the menu. So, this review are for other yelpers curious about the restaurant. Great food, slow service, but overall good experience

    Fresh Mozzarella and Tomato

    I cant rave so much about this place - its for the 21 and over as its in the casino - you want a sophisticated night this is the place. The service was very good attentive, food was very light and smooth, the fresh mozzarella to die for- a must order, the drinks are amazing and on point!! Very dim lighting but again sophisticated ambiance. Don't miss out when you are in the mount pocono area or staying at the mount airy resort - here are some pics unfortunately no dessert for once as we were to ful!

    The phenomenal Easter dinner special.

    Spoiling myself, I stayed at the wonderful Mount Airy Casino and the Easter Sunday dinner special at Bistecca caught my attention (please refer to attached photo). The place is beautiful with a cool atmosphere and the hostess is wonderful. After being seated, Izzy took my order, and my dining experience began. The entire meal was well-paced, the flavors of the dishes were perfectly balanced, and the meal was beyond enjoyable. I am a big eater but I almost could not finish my entree! As in most quality restaurants, the staff works in concert with each other and everything they did was well-choreographed. This was truly one of the best dining experiences I have had in some time. Highly recommended for couples looking for a stellar night out. I cannot wait to get back there! https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g53258-d7992943-r885801817-Bistecca_by_Il_Mulino-Mount_Pocono_Pocono_Mountains_Region_Pennsylvania.html#

    What an experience. We were in a large group for a bachelor party, and had a late night reservation so you'd think they wouldn't be too busy. The service was just horrendous. I don't even know how to describe it. Our waitress was all over the place, pretended to know about wine and knew nothing about the wine. She spilled while pouring, didn't even pause for a tasting when opening. She spilled a plate of drinks on one person in our group and just laughed and made jokes about it as opposed to being apologetic. The food took FOREVER. We're pretty confident the kitchen dropped the entire order because we heard crashing at one point. All I all we were there over 3 hours which was just brutal. What is so sad is that the food was phenomenal!! The pasta was delicious, all the apps were great. For just the food I'd give this 5 stars, but the service was laughably bad.

    After wanting to try this restaurant for a long time we finally did. Sadly we left unimpressed. Reservations - after trying unsuccessfully to get a reservation for a party of 5 on OpenTable we were finally able to secure one by calling the restaurant directly. We then found out that they don't take reservations through OpenTable for parties larger than 4. Great, they should of listed that somewhere online rather than showing a message on OpenTable that "no availability." Food - food is very pricey for what you get. We elected to try the homemade mozzarella in which there was a $7 up charge for roasted peppers. However when the mozzarella arrived there was ONE piece of pepper under the cheese. Not worth an additional $7. Two of us ordered the steak with Parmesan frites. Neither got their fries until they asked the waiter. By the time the fries came they were full and could not eat many of them. Which was sad because they were delicious. A few of us ordered the gnocchi dish in which the gnocchi was very dense. For $28 this was not worth it. Complimentary bread was delicious. Service - our waiter was nice but seemed a bit inexperienced. He spilled water on two of us and did not acknowledge it. Additionally there was a mishap with fries not arriving with an order (see food section above). Beverages - all the glasses of wine ordered came in different sized glasses. Some pours were significantly larger than others. For the prices charged this was not acceptable. Decor - the restaurant had some nice holiday decor. All in all after paying the hefty bill we decided our experience was a solid 2.5 stars. Rounding down due to the prices charged.

    We dined at BM for Christmas Eve and we were definitely impressed. From the delicious food, dessert, ambiance, service and cocktails, we'll come back for more. The only downside was the cream spinach was sort of liquidity and could've had a thicker consistency. David and Darmar were our part of the wait staff and they made us feel welcomed and we throughly enjoyed the service. Cocktails were insanely good too. The ambiance was relaxing with the complimentary sounds of Frank Sinatra. We highly recommend.

    Spectacular! Really expensive but worth it. Quiet ambiance just off the chaos of the casino, great selection of meat / fish / pasta and a la carte sides. The service was efficient and for the most part gracious. But I'm not sure my wife appreciated being called "sweetie" by the male waiter. And did he really have to stack all the plates in one towering mass to clear the table? You'll easily drop $100 per person on this meal but it'll make for a happy memory, and a great meal.

    Beet salad

    We came here to celebrate a birthday. I have to say this place has excellent service everyone was so friendly and their food was delicious. We ordered their fried calamari which included zucchini, and cherry peppers, which I really enjoyed. We also ordered their roasted beets (we shared), chicken parmesan on top of some pasta, plus a whole grilled branzino. Desert for the birthday girl was equally delicious. She was served tiramisu plus a really delicious gelato. Everything on their menu looked fantastic. I noticed that they did have some good looking steaks (looked at other tables) that I definitely want to order the next time we are here. We really all enjoyed ourselves. Great food and service equals very happy people.

    Zeppole w choco sauce soo good
    Tiffany H.

    Our servers Michael n Alvin were great, friendly and very attentive. We ordered 2 drinks But the drinks came in late and weak. Almost as if no alcohol. We ordered a fried calamari, shrimp cocktail, Caesar salad, crab cakes, pasta w meatballs, porterhouse steak $78! And filet mignon. For desert we had choco & raspberry cake n zeppole. Espresso, cappuccino. Wow we ate a lot. The deserts were the best thing. Caesars was a little overdressed. Pasta came in late n overcooked, but the rest was ok. Overall was a good meal.

    The Frogtown Chophouse - Lobster shrimp and crabcake with Brussel sprouts- brussel sprouts were the best thing on the plate

    Made a reservation at the Frogtown Chophouse during a recent girls weekend. We were welcomed once…read morewe had arrived and was seated in this quaint dining room and a romantic setting for dates (just saying). Sophia was our waitress and she was wonderful and patient with us. We had a little one with us and the entire wait staff was so kind to her. We ordered the calamari and fries as a starter and omg it was amazing. The fries were the best and we def needed to place a second order for another round of fries. As an entree, my sister and I ordered the chefs special to share. It came with a steak, crab cake, and lobster tail, steamed string beans, and mashed potatoes. There was also a variety of sauces. Everything was soo delicious and loved that we got a taste of everything with the platter. We enjoyed our dinner and loved the ambiance. Olivia and the entire wait staff were great through our entire visit. I will def visit when I'm back in the area.

    I would say the high reviews are based on the locals that live in the area. I hate to say it but…read morethere isn't a lot of great food choices when visiting the Poconos. As an out of towner who has access to amazing cuisine options in my area this restaurant gets three stars and that's being nice. When you walk in it's like a motel entrance. Literally it has all the tourist pamphlets lining the entrance to the hostess stand which doubles as the front desk of the hotel. It's not welcoming and feels cheap. To get to the restaurant you walk down a narrow long bar area where plenty of locals (I'm assuming) were enjoying happy hour. Loud and unwelcoming imho. We were seated in a two top which is super close to another two top. When I requested a booth in leu of the table (every booth was empty) the hostess said they were all reserved. Noting during our entire dining experience there were empty booths. Felt a little shady. Server was very sweet and great personality but unfortunately was not very fast. Every time she finally came back to the table she was apologizing for taking so long. She had other tables but wasn't in the weeds that we could see (in my youth I worked both as a server and hostess). The homemade bread we were looking forward to wasn't fresh and it was lacking taste as was the dipping oil. Adding salt and pepper helped the oil dip. Even though we were both hungry we didn't eat all the bread. That's a problem. We ordered clams as an appetizer. Again, tasteless needed salt, no flavor otherwise. For dinner, I ordered a seafood trio with Brussel sprouts. My husband ordered a fillet cooked, medium with a baked potato. The crabcake lacked flavor had way too much filling tasted like it came from Cisco. After a second bite, I would not eat anymore. The shrimp was ho hum and the lobster not that great either. My husband's steak was very bland no flavor in the meat even though it was cooked to temperature with a slight char on the outside. Because of the slow service and lack of flavor in the food we just wanted to check and get out of there as quickly as possible. What a bust for over $200.

    Our server Mary was wonderful and friendly…read more Very good service Most of the food was very good

    Service decent ambiance it's a buffet nothing fancy the food is where you're gonna be disappointed…read more So we came here for some time away and to celebrate my husbands birthday. After a 3 hour drive up to the resort we checked in took a nap and began our exploration. We walked around and decided to go to the buffet for a casual on property bite to eat. $63.58 later we were escorted to our table. Of course we didn't sit we went straight to the food. Keep in mind this is a Sunday afternoon. They had a salad bar that was fully stocked fresh and it was clean my husband enjoyed his, seafood which was nothing but cold spiced shrimp that was salty or plain shrimp decent two different sauces cocktail which is always good and safe a Cajun sauce that was decent, lemon, then the hot food. Cheese ravioli under cooked, turkey sausage, pork sausage, bacon those were good, over cooked scrambled eggs, waffles, French toast, sausage gravy, pancakes, eggs Benedict I wasn't impressed with from the way they looked so I didn't bother, steamed vegetables, roasted potatoes had to add seasoning to, but the seafood cakes were delicious. The carving station had herb roasted turkey it was good and prime rib gravy compote or anju onions and peppers or mushrooms for your topper. An omelette station and dessert station with sugar free options and chocolate only ice cream ( I asked for vanilla ice cream and was told their order wouldn't arrive until Wednesday). I waited a while because it was still brunch when we came and they were already in the process of switching over to dinner and we wanted to see what they would put out. The clams came and they looked over cooked so I didn't get those. The prime rib looked so nice I went for it that was perfect I topped it with the gravy and some mushrooms which made it even better a side of mashed potatoes went well. The cod was okay the pork chops looked dry the ribs were delicious my husband had some during their brunch so I guess that's a repeat item they serve. So for a quick on property bite I say this place was cool. Not gonna go back while we are still here not even for breakfast. Hopefully they get the seasoning and cook times right to make this a better meal option for people that are staying on property.
