My experience is based solely on New Year's Eve so please keep that in mind. That said, was…read moreincredibly frustrating and disappointing. Made a reservation almost two months out and when we arrived, we waited 45 minutes for our table. We were unapologetically told that they have staffing issues and that they "can't make people leave". Well-managed restaurants know how to handle this. Yes, you can advise guests that time is limited on a busy night. And as far as staffing, they could have limited reservations to pace with the amount of servers. We were eventually seated but it was in an ancillary room attached to the restaurant with zero atmosphere. Didn't appreciate that given that I booked weeks out. Room was filled with empty and unclean tables. Food was a mandatory buffet. Set up in a very cold room, displayed unceremoniously considering the night, and it was average at best. Beef and the Brussel sprout salad were good. Everything else just ok. Only potato option was tater tots - odd. Desserts were an embarrassment. Maybe they were mostly gone - not sure. Server did the best that she could. Was very friendly and attempted to be efficient but was beyond overwhelmed and left us hanging several times. I understand that it was a super busy night. But, this hotel has been around for nearly 100 years and I assume they've managed countless busy nights of food service. So, pretty disappointed to say the least.

Mountainhome Diner has been around for years and is your typical diner with all-day breakfast available. It's clean and the staff were exactly what you want in a diner with friendliness and hospitality. I went with a breakfast sandwich with bacon, egg, and cheese on a croissant with some well done potatoes. My friend had the scrapple with some scrambled eggs. I also had an orange juice. The orange juice I did not care for. Definitely not fresh squeezed. But the sandwich was excellent along with the potatoes. My friend also loved his coffee and scrapple with egg. My meal came to $11 not including tip. We'd come back!

Mountainhome Diner is a classic American diner restaurant that opened in Cresco, Pennsylvania in…read more1956. Over the decades, it has been operated by a number of different owners. The current owners since 2017 are husband and wife restaurateurs Ali and Etab Abullattif. The enormous menu features classic staples such as omelets, pancakes, eggs benedict, french toast, waffles, breakfast sandwiches, breakfast wraps, salads, sandwiches, paninis, burgers, seafood entrees, steakhouse entrees, and various Italian specialties too numerous to mention. My family and I visited Mountainhome Diner for lunch on a recent trip to the Poconos. It was actually are last morning on our trip and we were looking for a place to grab lunch before making the drive back to Connecticut. We had driven past the diner several times on previous visits to the area, but had never visited before. We decided to give them a try. It seemed like a classic American diner that you could find just about anywhere. There's no website, no social media accounts, just good old-fashioned diner staples. The staff were friendly and accommodating and they seated us at a booth. A go-to dish that my wife and I both like to get at classic diners is a Greek salad, and Mountainhome Diner's "Big Fat Greek Salad" (chopped iceberg lettuce, crumbled feta, olives, tomato, onions, peppers, grape leaves, house Greek vinegar) sounded like it was just what we were looking for. I ordered mine with gyro while my wife ordered hers with chicken. Those salads really hit the spot! For our sons, we looked to the Kids Menu. Our older son had the "Hot Dog with French fries" while our younger son had the "Chicken Fingers with French fries". They were both very happy with their dishes. We had a nice time at Mountainhome Diner and we're happy that we finally stopped in. We recommend them to anyone visiting the area!

The staff really cares. I even spilt some pasta sauce on my shirt and they came over with club soda and a fresh napkin to help me out. Would love to dine here again!

We recently visited Butter and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience…read more The moment we sat down, the water bottle brought to our table had crumbs floating inside. I informed the waitress, and she kindly replaced it ,but the second bottle had the same issue. My daughter refused to drink anything else, so I had no choice but to go out to the parking lot and get our own bottled water. That should have been the first sign that the experience wasn't going to improve. We all ordered burgers, and they were extremely disappointing. Not only were they overpriced, but the buns were completely soaked in grease and falling apart. Even though we requested medium-rare, the burgers came out raw -- not just pink, but visibly undercooked. It was very unappetizing. While the restaurant itself has a cozy atmosphere, the quality of the food and overall experience overshadowed that. We left feeling uncomfortable, and our stomachs started hurting afterward. Sadly, we regret choosing this place and would not return.

Garland was silver and beautiful but spoke winter and not autumn. We were seated at a lovely table overlooking the lake. However, the lake is not lit and the view out the window was a black void. We ordered sparkling water. The menu offered one Thanksgiving option and varied dinner options from seafood to pasta. I didn't choose the Thanksgiving option because it was lacking appealing side dishes. Instead, I ordered salmon and a Broccolini Caesar salad to start. The salad was delicious and my husband loved his garden salad. My seared salmon arrived sitting next to small capers in some kind of sauce. My husband ordered scallops and they sat beside risotto. His scallops though seared were undercooked inside. My salmon was nicely seared but small capers as a side? Our dinners were disappointing. We ordered chocolate cheesecake with a brownie crust to go. Trying it after we were home, it was a fluffy top but definitely not cheesecake. Our meals cost $140. I should add that our waitress, Annmarie? was fantastic. Overall, an expensive disappointing dinner.

My husband had the snowball which he thoroughly enjoyed. Highly recommend both. They only have a few bottled beers but had many wines to choose from. We went with the special soup of the day which was a tomato soup with rice --- it was to die for! For our entrees, I went with the blue salmon which came with a baked potato and veggie of the day (creamed spinach with feta cheese). My husband opted for the pork tenderloin. He doesn't like spinach so they accommodated that by offering a different veggie (broccoli or green beans). My husband was very happy and raved about the broccoli and said the pork tenderloin was the best he ever had. For dessert, we went with the brownie towers, which came out kind of hard. The waitress (Jeannie) apologized and even brought us out another piece. It's a very relaxed atmosphere. We sat on the porch, it was really nice. The only thing I can recommend was maybe adding light dinner music to enhance the experience. All in all, the meal and experience was worth every penny and I highly recommend checking this place out if you're in the area.
