First off, this is truly indicative of Sussex County--off the beaten path, luscious, green... a dining experience that is elevated because of its location--if you are able to request a window seat, I would advise in doing that because we definitely enjoyed the beauty of the mountains and were entertained by the deer that came to graze right outside of where our table was located. I appreciate the history.. location.. service was quick and pleasant (Tina was our server). Food was decent enough.. we enjoyed the bread--though some parts seemed a little hard--and I recommend putting out salted vs non salted butter. Salad bar has a decent variety. My New England clam chowder was really good. My seafood platter with salmon, scallops, and shrimp was ok. The seafood was a little fishy for me. The cook said he tried his best to get my salmon to medium, but it was more well done. I appreciated that they informed me of their efforts. The shrimp were well done. We skipped dessert.. Would I return? It is super far from us at about an hour and forty minutes away, so because we weren't wowed by the food, it was nice to visit once.

If she waits on you make sure that she does not add on extras that you do not want. She will ask if you want corn and potatoes with your meal and if you say yes she adds on extra portions of each. Corn for $4.00 more and Potatoes for $3.50 more (They are already included with your meal). When she brought out our food we asked her why we had so many pieces of corn and potatoes with each meal and she said that is what we wanted and I explained to her we only wanted that comes with the meal and you brought us way to many. She said no problem and that she would take them off of our bill and I explained that we did not order and extra food and she said that its ok and that they would take them off of our bill when we paid. Well when the bill arrived nothing was taken off and We asked her about it and she said that she would have it corrected and then came back and asked me for payment and I asked for a copy of the bill before I paid and she had taken off only part of the extras and I told her that she needed to take the rest off of the bill and she stormed away and then 2 other ladies came to the table and told us that we had eaten the extras and that we had to pay for them. WE DID NOT EAT THEM!! I explained this to them and they said the waitress had counted the food that was left and we had to pay for the missing pieces and that was that. We were lied to and tricked into ordering add ons that we did not eat. I paid the bill and explained that we would never come back here again after this mess. It's not the money that matters. It was how we were treated. YOU JUST LOST A LONG TIME CUSTOMER OVER THIS! Just beware when you order so this doesn't happen to you!

One of us had been here before with the Pop-Pop, but this time we went as a family for dinner. The main area inside is cute and homey, and the bar is especially nice, but we were seated in the adjacent section which felt like an IHOP. Our server was very nice and patient, and we did appreciate that there were decent beers on draft as well as some cocktails. We started with the appetizer sampler, and it was...fried food galore. The chicken wings were beyond rubbery, but the onion rings were OK, as were the mozzarella sticks. The whole thing was a plate of grease. For mains, one of us got the teriyaki chicken wrap, and she was pleasantly surprised. It was pretty delish! Nice flavor, good balance of ingredients and texture, and somewhat fresh tasting. The chicken parm sandwich, though, was a hot mess, and not in a good way. The bread became pure mush, the chicken tasted off, and the sauce was unappetizing. A real bummer of a meal. Our daughter had a shrimp basket that we didn't even want to ask about. We all split a lava cake for dessert that lacked any soul. Overall, the Erie Hotel is on par with literally everything else in a 30-mile radius that we have experienced in this corner of America: average food that's not particularly first-rate. Three accurate stars.

Combined review of hotel and restaurant. Highly recommend the restaurant, not so much the hotel,…read moreread on to find out why. Expensive menu here totally justified because the food tasted great and they obviously pay attention to detail, and the service was absolutely flawless. Here is the original combined review: First impression (over the phone) of the hotel is the reason we chose this one: Yvonne; she was great! The wait to check in was painfully long. There were 2 people behind the desk but only one taking care of clients. When we got to the desk, the girl (I wish I had gotten her name but I didn't) was very professional, apologized for the long wait, and took care of us quickly, so I can only assume the people ahead of us had a special request or something.. .and that is definitely forgivable. At the bar we were greeted by John, very experienced at his job and it showed. After he left we got Emily. She had a great attitude, had only nice things to say about co workers and her bosses. She also was very good at bartending. I would highly recommend the bar / restaurant. We decide to eat and instead of a table just stayed at the bar where we met several friendly locals and had great conversations, as well as with one of the cooks as he was leaving for the night (James) who was so funny I told him he should try his hand at stand up. That man has talent as a storyteller. We were feeling very happy when it was time to call it a night and go up to the room to sleep... and that was when we noticed the issue... NOISE. You could not miss every single noise coming from other rooms... I was woken at 3am to what sounded like someone trying out a new pair of lead boots above my head! It was not a good nights sleep and we had a very busy day the next day so that was very disappointing. On our way out we stopped at the front desk to mention the noise issue and was told when they renovated the hotel they didn't exactly spend a lot of time on sound proofing... and for people who are traveling through and consider a good sleep important, that is an incredibly important detail to miss. Since we do stay at a lot of hotels, I assumed they'd attempt to try to make this right with us, maybe something off the bill or some sort of benefit if we come back or whatever. But instead we just got the story of the renovation and nothing to try to make us feel better about not getting any sleep. Extremely disappointing, as other hotels we have stayed at always try to do something to make up for a legitimate concern. (We don't have a lot of complaints but when we do we are never brushed off like that.) I was wondering if management doesn't instruct their front desk staff what to do when a client has a concern. It didn't appear they were brushing us off in a rude way, more like they just didn't know what to do for us. They told us next time we come we should request the top floor. Ummm... there's a very good chance we won't stay over ever again because we feel like our concern wasn't heard or taken seriously. We would definitely go back to eat there, but not sleep (or... not sleep, actually). They did a beautiful job on the aesthetics of the renovation. You can clearly see the pride they took with this. I wish they had taken the soundproofing as seriously. Every single member of the staff we had contact with was fantastic and made us want to come back. The food was pricey but very tasty. I had the portabella with a salad and I can't wait to have it again, it was so good. The bar atmosphere is very cozy and comfortable. The room was clean, the climate control worked properly, they have blackout curtains in the rooms, the bathroom was spacious and clean. The elevator was painfully slow but the stairs were accessible and we ended up using them instead. A tweak here and there and this place could be perfect. For the price they charge for an overnight stay, they really should be looking into soundproofing, and figure out the elevator situation, not sure why any elevator would be as slow as theirs is. The food was VERY good and the service was flawless. Thank you for the wonderful job that your staff did. They are the biggest reason I would highly recommend the restaurant to friends & family and I am sharing this review online, on my social media, and on TripAdvisor. Date of stay: March 2019
