I made our reservation a month before and asked to be seated inside. They seated us outside and it was the worst experience! All of us (party of 4) have over 5 mosquito/bug bites. (They did give us bug spray but it did not repel anything!) I did ask our waitress if they were able to move us inside and was told no. Dinner: The truffle pasta is a MUST if you love truffle! (You can order in half or full plate) The Calamarata dish was superb! We did put in a request for a special dessert and they were able to accommodate as best they can. The 20% gratuity is added to your bill even if the service is slow/bad.

Non-Alcoholic Dalmatia Spritzer
Dayna R.

From mocktails to apps to dinner to the service, everything was impeccable. The Dalmatia Spritzer was so good and made it fun for me to be at an event where I'm unable to drink due to pregnancy. The mustard on the cheeseboard was phenomenal and paired great with the hard cheeses, and the pickled veggies were a wonderful addition, as well. The caprese was unique as they were unable to source mozzarella and had to substitute blue cheese which I was a little skeptical about but turned out great. The grilled calamari was perfectly cooked and had so much flavor. My steak was cooked perfectly and was the best steak I've ever had. Also, I can't stop thinking about the pistachio sponge cake!

Absolutely the best ribeye steak around....so much better than 1700 at the Hilton...not even close. If you're willing to pay for the best then you are going to get it with this one. Great atmosphere as well and ownership and staff are extremely attentive and accommodating

Pasta w truffles
Van V.

Back for an outstanding dinner. Wonderful server. This certainly remains one of the best gourmet options in Harrisburg. Not too busy on a rainy Thursday. For starters, we shared heirloom tomatoes and a pasta with truffles. Great to have these two together. Pasta was pricey at $50 but truly delicious. Blame it on a nice amount of shaved truffles and truffle oil! For main I had a branzino which was perfectly cooked. Served with too many potatoes though. Would have preferred something green rather than the heavy potatoes. Others might disagree. The star of the night was a filet special with sheep milk fondue, escargot and mushrooms. All the flavors and textures worked together in an inspired way. We had a glass of wine each. Loved the white I had from northern Italy in a German style. Crisp and well described by the server. A good place to Mangia. Qui. Yes.

Crab cake sandwich
Juli K.

Everyone raves about Mangia Qui and I just don't understand why. I felt like it was hipster pretentious without the food chops to back up the atmosphere. I was here for lunch with co-workers in a group of 12. We were seated immediately and ordered beverages. I had the mandarin orange iced tea which tasted exactly like the Celestial Seasons Tangerine Orange Zinger tea that I make at home. We ordered and three of us ordered soup. I had a special seafood soup; I forget what they called it. I was surprised when it was served that it was green and very thin and runny. There was some sweet crab garnish that I enjoyed but the soup was heavily spiced with cumin. It was odd. After we completed the soup everyone's entrees started to come out. Two at a time. With large gaps of time in between. When I received the the crab cake sandwich that I ordered most of my coworkers were already halfway through their meals. The bun was much larger than the crab cake. It was served with french fries that were clearly from frozen. When I took a bite there seemed to be a lot of filler and the whole thing was really squishy. So yeah, I don't get why people rave about this place. I'll go if I have to for a work event but I don't see myself voluntarily choosing this place.

Crab Omelet
Chad R.

Came here last Sunday with an out-of-town friend. I've been here several times and they never disappoint me. Very consistent in their quality. Ordered off their somewhat limited brunch menu. We started with 2 Bloody Mary's. Luckily, there was a crab omelet special that we couldn't pass up. The omelet was a generous size and cooked perfectly- very light and fluffy. The creamy sauce on top went well with the crab. Side of vegetables went well with the omelet too. Restaurant is very comfortable. Staff was a little loud in the bar area though.

Oh my what an amazing place! Absolutely phenomenal I could not even imagine being in the area and not visiting this wonderful restaurant Top shelf service with a smile-cost check-fresh ingredients -ever changing fresh menu I truly feel bad for people that do not take the time to visit this wonderful establishment! Make a reservation and ENJOY!!!

Figaro with Manchego garnish
Mel P.

This is my favorite restaurant. I literally cannot say enough good things about it. The drinks are balanced and innovative. The quality of the food is second to none. The seasonal menu is a delight. The only way to do it is a four course meal, appetizer, half order of pasta, entree, dessert. The Santiago cake and the bread puddings are the top of the list when it comes to dessert. They shuck their oysters so cleanly. The oyster happy hour is an amazing deal. Only once in a blue moon is there a dish that is sub par. The servers are lovely and knowledgeable and seem genuinely enthusiastic about the food. I could go on but you get the gist.

Best Sunday brunch in the Harrisburg area. Great food, extremely reasonable prices and fantastic service. Enjoyed sharing eggs Benedict and ricotta pancakes with pineapple and peaches. It was all perfect.

Front: duck breast and polenta. Rear: pork tenderloin with bean salad.

Los Tres Cubanos - Shrimp Ceviche

Best Cuban food in the city. Only Cuban food in the city but still the best! Ate there at least…read more20 times and always liked my meals. Every time. Definitely recommend

Friday night in Harrisburg, and Los Tres Cubanos was already buzzing by 5 p.m. (pro tip: they open…read moreat 4 -- make a reservation if you want inside seating). We rolled in without one but happily claimed a little café table outside. The weather was warm, the cocktails were cold, and our waitress checked in often enough that our glasses never sat empty for long. We kicked things off with the beef empanadas ($9 for two big ones) and -- oh my goodness -- these were dream-level empanadas. Golden-brown, fried crisp on the outside yet soft and tender inside, stuffed with simply seasoned, flavorful ground beef. The tangy-sweet red sauce they came with was the perfect co-star. I'd come back for these alone. Cocktails ran about $12 each. I had the Havana Special (fresh pineapple juice, Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur, and Cruzan Rum) -- tropical, bright, and just sweet enough. My adventure buddy ordered the Canchanchara (honey, lime, rum, and chilled water -- said to be Cuba's oldest cocktail), which was refreshing and citrusy, perfect for a summer night. For dinner, I went for the Camarones Enchilados ($27) -- Cuban-style shrimp in Creole sauce with white rice and sweet fried plantains. Generous serving of perfectly cooked shrimp in a savory tomato-based sauce with diced peppers, onion, and garlic... I brought half home, but not before finishing every last plantain. The sauce was light but packed with flavor, and the rice soaked it up like a champ. Adventure buddy ordered the Cuban Fried Rice ($25) -- shrimp, ham, chicken, and sweet plantain all fried together, topped with an egg. The rice had that crispy-but-soft magic, the proteins were tender and flavorful, and while he wished the egg had been runny, it was still well-executed. Another giant portion, another take-home box. Our bill for two was about $100, and every dollar felt well spent. Los Tres Cubanos is tucked just outside the hustle of downtown, which makes it easy to miss -- but don't. Between the authentic flavors, generous portions, and charming atmosphere, it's worth seeking out. And bonus: you can stroll the nearby Susquehanna River Walk afterward to justify ordering that second empanada next time.

The cocktails alone are worth the visit. The bartenders really know their craft, and the alcohol selection, including local beers, is solid. My only real issue is brunch. Every time I've visited after 12 p.m. (brunch is served until 2 p.m.), there's been a problem--either they're no longer taking food orders, the kitchen is backed up with a 45-minute wait, or they've simply run out of food. It comes off unprofessional and could definitely be handled better. I've noticed this becoming a growing trend during brunch service in general, and while some people suggest arriving as early as 10 a.m. for the best experience, consistency matters. If you're offering brunch, you should be properly staffed and prepared to serve guests throughout the full service window. Period. It's especially frustrating when you've traveled specifically to experience their culinary offerings and hit a wall like that. Overall, if you're looking for a spot that feels like a New York-style dive bar with elevated drinks and solid food--if you catch it at the right time--this place delivers. Just plan strategically if brunch is your goal.

Food and service was excellent.. Fresh ingredients. Beautiful restaurant.. Highly recommend…read more Our server was knowledgeable and accommodating.

This week's Friday Night Solo Date Night destination took me to Greystone Public House -- a spot…read moreI've heard people talk about for a while but had never tried myself. When I realized I'd be just minutes away late Friday afternoon on one of the nicest days of the year so far, it felt like the perfect time to finally give it a shot. Friday afternoon, 74°, end of a long work week...this absolutely screamed "patio dinner," and Greystone delivered on that front! I arrived around 4:45pm and asked for patio seating, and was seated at a great table in full sun. The vibe was exactly what I was hoping for -- calm, quiet, and a really beautiful setting. When I got there, the patio was about one-third full, but by the time I left around 5:30pm, it had nearly emptied out. That said, I could definitely see this being a go-to spot when the weather is nice, so reservations are probably a smart move if you're aiming for patio seating. For my meal, I went with the shrimp salad wrap with a Caesar salad and a Diet soda. On paper, it sounded like a solid, light dinner option. In reality...it didn't quite hit for me. The shrimp salad was very mayo-heavy with minimal seasoning, and it was loaded with large chunks of celery (like...a lot of celery). The menu also indicated the wrap would include tomato but it didn't. The shrimp were left whole, which made it tough to eat as a wrap -- I ended up just picking out and eating the shrimp and leaving most of the wrap behind...along with what felt like an entire stalk of celery. Not exactly what I had in mind. Service also missed the mark a bit. My server checked in shortly after the food was delivered, but then disappeared for quite a while. I finished eating and waited about 20 minutes for my check, with both my Diet soda and water empty and no refill in sight before she eventually came back. My total came to $24.30 before tip, which put the experience right around $30 for one person, one cold wrap, one side salad and a Diet soda -- and for that price point, I was expecting something a little more elevated, both in food and service. Greystone definitely has the look of an upscale, country club-style dining experience. The space is beautiful, especially the patio, and the overall atmosphere is appealing. But right now, it feels like the execution isn't quite matching the vision. The food lacked that "oh my god this is GOOD" factor, and the service didn't support the price point. Also worth noting -- a few small maintenance details stood out, like a broken toilet paper dispenser laying in pieces in the women's restroom and loose floor tiles near the bar that shift when you step on them. Not dealbreakers, but noticeable in a space aiming for a more polished experience. Overall, Greystone is a great spot for the vibes -- especially on a sunny day -- but the food and service didn't quite live up to expectations for me. I'd come back for the patio, but I'd probably manage expectations (and maybe try something different on the menu next time).
