However, the overall experience was disappointing due to slow service, lack of communication, and issues with the food. We visited after the Lehigh Graduate Commencement Ceremony and were seated from 1:30-3:00 PM. Our server, Younise, only checked on us roughly every 15 minutes. It then took 45 minutes for pretzels and another 30 minutes for our 2 entrees. While we overheard that the kitchen was behind, this was never communicated to us directly, which made the long wait more frustrating. There was also an issue with my order. I ordered the Caesar salad wrap (Julius' Chicken Dance $14), but I was brought a Caesar salad with chicken ($3 up-charge) instead. The server did not offer to have the kitchen correct it or provide an alternative. After discussing it, I eventually asked if she could bring me a tortilla so I could make the wrap myself. A 15% discount was applied, which I appreciated, but the bill still listed the incorrect meal and reflected the higher-priced salad instead of the wrap I originally ordered. The burger was also underwhelming, as the cheese was not melted. For a meal that came to over $60 for pretzels, a burger, a salad item, and one drink, I expected better communication, food quality, and customer service. The ambiance was great, but the entrees and service unfortunately did not match the setting

Great service, great food…read more The person who booked our dinner reservations did not know this was a cigar bar so we were a bit shocked walking in, but we were seated downstairs at the farthest away table so we thankfully didn't smell much smoke. Service was great, our waitress was very attentive and friendly. For apps we did the pirogies which were some of the best I've ever had, the red wine sauce was amazing!, as well as the shoulder lean which was good. For an entree, I did the Jimmy Pesto wrap. Good flavor and massive portion, but the chicken was very dry. Husband got the What's the Dilla, which was great and again a massive portion. We also enjoyed most our cocktails.

We were there to catch up with people we don't see often, so it was so nice not to be rushed. Our food came out, as it should, in courses with time in between. Very nicely done. Our dinners were excellent, done to everyone's expectations. Unfortunately, we didn't have any room for dessert so I can't comment on that. The food is pricey, but for the service and type of restaurant, I feel it's in line with others. It was a very nice night out with friends. Great choice of dinning experiences.

I like to frequent this spot for lunch, however if you are free Wednesdays and Friday's for dinner,…read morethe bar area is where you want to be. The bartender, Ronny, has great service, fun, inviting, remembers his customers, and always ensures you have what you need. I have tried both their breakfast and lunch and have not been disappointed. For this specific visit, I was here for dinner visiting Ronny and I ordered their Broiled Stuffed Trio. Seafood stuffed Icelandic haddock, mushrooms, and shrimp. The fish was moist and flakey, the shrimp tender, and the mushrooms plump and juicy. The seafood filling they used tasted like a mix between a crabcake and crab dip. There was too much for my taste on the shrimp and mushrooms, so I scraped some off and reserved it to eat later as a snack with ritz crackers. The meal also came with the soup and salad bar where there were a variety of soups to chose from, and everything in the salad bar was fresh and crisp. Currently rated at a 7.2 on my Beli, I enjoy this place for the food and budget friendly meals, but also for the excellent service that Ronny always provides.

Kayleigh was there, like last time, and she was just great! Service and food here is really excellent. I had the salad bar again, it was the same items plus some surprises, like a Russian salad and pickled beets, yummy! The soups were chicken pasta, split pea, and pepper pot. The ladies were great about finding out ingredients. I got to meet the owner! He's a great guy, too. Just an overall warm, welcoming, relaxing place. They're close to motels and hotels, so there are people from all over stopping by, and there are lots of regulars who are hooked. You can tell why. You feel like it's another era. Lots of free parking. Salad bar food was fresh and delicious. Nice to smell freshly brewed coffee.

After i ordered a subpar pork chop the last time i visited i didnt think things could get any worse but Valley outdid themaelves. The steak was about 30% fat that i had to trim off, the remaining meat was low grade but edible. It was supposed to be cooked medium rare but was very well done. Most of the servers like Katie are very friendly but I am going to have to rethink ordering breakfast at Valley again in the future.

Place is very eclectic: pool table, bar, dining area, but funky decor including saddles! Staff is friendly and attentive. There was live music which was great as it was not over-powering. Hubby got seafood newburg which was filled with seafood and topped by a flaky crust. For dessert, he got the creme brûlée donut. He had the best meal. I had broiled scallops-- but sadly, they were definitely not real sea scallops as real sea scallops are not exactly the same size and completely round. I had coconut cake for dessert, which was good though. We'll go back but will not go for scallops.

The atmosphere was old-fashioned and a beautiful step back into history. It appeared mostly in good repair and well-kept. The only flaw I noticed in the dining area was the chipping paint next to our table where it rubbed against the wall and the dust cobwebs beneath the little lampshade on the table. We placed our orders and waited approximately 45 minutes for our food to arrive at the table. It arrived hot and was very flavorful as well as aesthetically pleasing in its presentation. The waitress was very polite, amicable, and attentive without being overwhelming. She provided us with complimentary samples of cheeses from a local vendor. The women's bathroom is INCREDIBLY CREEPY! It is located next to the bar, where a number of men were seated and the door did not fit the frame properly permitting people to easily look into the one toilet room. I had to stand guard for my daughter and her for me. That left us feeling incredibly vulnerable, anxious, and uncomfortable enough to not want to ever return- which is unfortunate. Had it not been for the vulnerability and insecurity of the bathroom environment experienced by my daughter and I the rating would be higher and I would consider returning. But the whole thing was too uncomfortable to be overlooked.

The smell of fresh coffee is everywhere and a positive vibe is present. We sat down quickly in the farthest booth, our preference. I had a nice view of the patrons, the street, and the kitchen. I noticed the amount of dessert on the counter, and later learned they were made in house, and if I am not wrong, this place is known for their desserts. We ordered a pretty standard diner breakfast and everything was perfect. As usual, and not to say that I am complicated, I had my order customized, and the server graciously accommodated me. After all, great service means a bigger tip. We were very satisfied. I got to visit a true diner, have a good meal, get a feel of the community, and the chance to help that community with my business. After all, diners, just like breweries, are traditionally American institutions for community exchange, much like the town's inn or the pub, if we were in the British lands.
