Absolutely a gem! This locally-owned place elevates the quiet downtown of Carlisle. Everything we…read morehave tried is delicious with complex flavors that complement each bite. The service is consistently great and very attentive to allergy concerns! This is our go-to date night and always our first recommendation for hosting and visitors.

Is this "fine dining" or just another Olive Garden clone? From reviews and business website the…read moreintent is fine dining but they failed completely in my experience. It started off well enough. The maitre d' was friendly and I was made to feel welcome and escorted to my table. A lively, modern dining room that did give off the "relaxed fine dining" vibes. I liked my seat where I could watch the busy bar and the brightly lit open kitchen. I studied the menu. Pretty extensive and, while not crazy-innovative, seemed somewhat above the average in creativity. I decided on the swordfish special. No free bread though. Lack of free bread is almost automatic loss of star for me; this alarming practice must stop. But for some reason I really wanted bread that day. I did find "Smoked Goat Bread" on the menu, the only bread listed, for $14. Hoping for some good focaccia or similar. Far from it. Room temperature, hardly any toasting, soggy, small. For Fourteen Dollars! Tastewise, the chèvre was excessive and the balsamic wasn't enough to balance its tangy, assertive flavor. Not sure what was meant by "smoked," as there was no smoke flavor in it. The swordfish was perfectly cooked and absolutely fresh. And also, unacceptably tiny. The lemongrass sauce may have been great but it was hard to tell, the 9 drops artfully splayed across the plate were woefully insufficient for anything but decoration. The risotto portion also was small with a weird consistency that was both watery and creamy. The carrots, thin and in rainbow colors, were delicious. At least I they were for the 15 seconds it took me to consume the 3 dwarf vegetables, leaving me wanting more. Just like I wanted more swordfish and more risotto. On the way to the rest room I passed the kitchen and saw somebody's salmon plate, with a piece of fish almost 3 times as big as mine. Hey, if swordfish's too expensive, either raise the price and let the customer decide or remove it from the menu. My portion was just insulting. I wasn't drinking alcohol that evening but ordered a mocktail, an alcohol-free margarita. Big mistake! Awful. I've had some great mocktails before and know alcohol isn't always essential but this thing was almost undrinkable, so unbalanced, too sweet, thick, no fresh fruit tang. I didn't order any dessert. I didn't want to risk another disappointment.

What an amazing restaurant here in Harrisburg! The interior is absolutely stunning. The service was…read moretop-tier. You enter into a stunning restaurant that has two levels. In the middle are three gorgeous chandeliers, and at the heart of it all is the bar. We were seated upstairs with a view of the downstairs and it was absolutely amazing. For starters we got the oysters which were delicious!! We're from Maryland so we're very judgy with our oysters, but these were great. We've have oysters that were not great out this way so we were nervous, but Rubicon delivered excellence! Next we had the truffle toast special and their octopus. What an amazing pair. The octopus was an absolute delight. It wasn't over cooked and the yucca it was served with was a great compliment to it. The toast was so light and rich at the same time. The truffle added such beautiful depth and complexity without being physically dense. For our mains I had the filet special with mushrooms and my partner had the lamb. Both were perfectly cooked, seasoned, and served. I'll be dreaming of the mushrooms that were served with my steak for weeks to come. We finished off our dinner with the dark chocolate lava cake and two espresso martinis. Both of which were stunning. The cake was moist and not too sweet like some chocolate cakes can be and the espresso martini was perfectly balanced. Rubicon is worth the drive if you're not local and worth the money if you are. Definitely a place I will be recommending to my friends!!

Went to Rubicon to celebrate the valentine's day holiday and thoroughly enjoyed it!…read more A stylish, tucked away in the heart of Harrisburg, Rubicon serves a mix of Italian, French, and Spanish style cuisine with fresh specials offered as well. My husband and I ordered the mussel appetizer which was delicious in the white wine reduction. The main meals consisted of lobster ravioli and a tagliatelle pasta. Though I felt the lobster ravioli needed a touch more of something or a bit of a kick, I very much enjoyed it! We ended the meal with a triple chocolate ice cream that was heavenly! Our server was excellent and kind and attentive to our needs. Though I am not usually a fan of a built in, mandatory 20% gratuity fee, the servers and staff definitely earned it and more! Will be back!

My wife and I had dinner at 1794 The Whiskey Rebellion while we were in Carlisle for Corvettes at…read moreCarlisle. We had a 6:30 reservation and were seated right away. I started with a 1794 Old Fashioned, which was good enough that I had a second one with dinner. My wife had a Pinot Noir. I had originally planned on ordering the 14 oz. bone-in ribeye, but after seeing that prime rib was offered as a Friday and Saturday special, I decided to try the Molly Pitcher English-cut prime rib prepared 1794 style with the extra grilling. Unfortunately, about five minutes after ordering, I was told they had sold out. I went back to my original choice of the ribeye, ordered medium rare, with Yukon Smash and the seasonal vegetable, which that evening was corn on the cob. The ribeye was tender and flavorful and cooked the way I wanted it. My wife had the chicken pot pie and enjoyed it, although she thought it could have used a little more butter. Desserts are presented verbally rather than on a printed menu. I had the bourbon apple blondie while my wife chose the skillet cookie, which was topped with ice cream and chocolate drizzle. Both were very good. The restaurant is located inside the Comfort Inn and literally occupies the same space where the hotel's breakfast is served each morning. From our table I could even see the small refrigerator used for the breakfast yogurts, so the setting doesn't provide quite the same atmosphere as a standalone restaurant. Overall, we enjoyed our dinner and I would consider returning when we're back for Corvettes at Carlisle next year. I'd probably make an earlier reservation next time so I could finally try the prime rib.

The menu has great options to pick from, and our service was nice and attentive. Most of the table had some of the steak options, from the filets to the medallions and then to the pot pie variation. The mashed potatoes were delicious - great flavor and taste. I'm not even a gravy fan but I wanted more. The steaks were cooked to our liking and flavored well. Would return for a nice dinner again!
