   We had a wonderful meal. Cavatelli with lobster sauce. Recommended by our server Marilyn it was fantastic!! Plenty of lobster! Marilyn was great as well —warm but efficient. Ambiance was so so. Not warm and welcoming as I thought it would be. Maybe if it wasn’t our Anniversary it would not have mattered. One annoyance - small flying constantly trying to have sips of our wine. Would go again to try other dishes

   Service: Our waitress was filing her nails at the register behind us. Some wait staff were on their phones and not paying attention to the tables. Food: The chicken came under cooked(red and bloody near the bone) . We sent it back and when the server brought it back she proceeded to tell my wife that it was cooked, but they "recooked it to her liking". Huh? In our opinion, Plough could be better. It feels like a typical, pricey hotel restaurant.

   Wine list could use some attention and they were out of my first choice by the glass. We went for lunch. Shrimp cocktail was good with a homemade mignonette! Sandwich’s and greens were solid. Dinner menu looks good and has changed since last time we were there. Service was good, but not great! Maybe dinner is better? We’ll definitely go back to try! They also do have a cool function room with a private outdoor space.

   We had an anniversary dinner here and we were truly impressed. The attention to detail is obvious, but it's exciting to invest in a meal and an experience. They delivered on value, taste, and experience.

   We were celebrating my wife’s birthday. Service was wonderful. Food was good but a couple drinks we wanted to try were not available. We still had good drinks anyway. We had a good time.

   The lunch menu is sparse. I had the asparagus and smoked turkey salad. The asparagus was served as thin crunchy tasteless slices and the turkey was cut into cubes-an unfortunate choice for meat. It was small for the price. The mushroom soup however was excellent. The service was fine and friendly. The atmosphere is open and airy.

   My friend and I chose to have dinner here before the show at the Fulton. It was a wonderful experience. The server helped us with questions as we chose the perfect meal. My friend had the Good Boy specialty drink while I chose wines. The short ribs were melt in your mouth delicious. We topped it off by sharing the Olive Oil Cake for dessert because we had no idea what it could be. What a delightful surprise of berries, ice cream and cake like no other. Finished perfectly in time to walk to the theatre. Great evening.

   Menu divided into small plates and large plates. Menu items have farm fresh produce, local cheese, and several vegetarian choices. The first night I had a small plate of grilled shrimp with a chimichurri type sauce and my husband had a large plate of short ribs, mashed potato and lots of veggies. The second night I chose the cheese plate and he had the lamb kabobs - both small plates. All excellent and Jack our server was the best!

    Service was sporadic. I ordered the seafood special which was good but it would have been nice not to have to dog out the lobster tail. The amount of liquid in the bowl made it tricky not to splash my shirt and pants.

    $15 soup not served with any accompaniments. No crackers, no toast. Nothing. The soup itself ( mushroom) was nothing special. Crispy tofu bowl another disappointment. Lacking in volume and presentation. Overpriced to be sure. We’ve dined here before and always had good experiences. Today was different. Probably will not return again as there’s been an obvious change is procedures, possibly staff.

    Absolutely the WORST food EVER for Mother's Day.... AND was not told it was a buffet until we were seated......serving utensils looked like they had not been replaced or cleaned the entire day..... reservations were at 8 p.m. and when arrived perhaps 2 people in the entire place.. when complained about the food was told there have been several complaints through-out the day at which time I was handed a $246.00 for a party of 4!!!! It was truly a embarrassing/worst experience I have had...

    Believe all the recent negative reviews! Drove down 35 min from Hershey for reservation on Mother’s Day. Walk in the door and are told it’s a buffet. Website said “Dinner features along with our standard dinner menu.” Wanted to leave, but shockingly no other reservations available on Mothers Day. Was pretty much a hotel banquet buffet with all of 3 options. Drinks were good, but come on you’re in Lancaster…$19 for a cocktail? Bartender was our “waiter” and never once cleared the used plates and yet he got an automatic 23% gratuity (on a 4 top)?? Will not be back.

    Disappointing. Mother’s Day dinner with 93 year old mother. Checkied the menu online prior to making reservations only to find when we arrived it was a buffet. While quality of the food was pretty good nothing on the buffet was hot. We had to request them to refill the fruit. After we were done eating our dessert they brought out a beautiful display of crab and shrimp that was missing the entire hour we were dining. Five servers standing around but we had to ask them to clear our plates from the table. Definitely not worth $250 for 4 people!

    The service and the food was excellent. My wife had the mushroom soup which she loved and for dinner I had the short ribs with cheesy mash potatoes and it was excellent. Our server was also excellent and very friendly and talked to us about the surrounding area and the attractions. I would definitely go back again.

    The server was efficient but it took an excessively long time for the food to arrive. At least 45 min! Then my grilled cheese was cold and soggy and the tomato bisque was cold and bitter tasting! Won’t be back! Oh and did I mention we were seated right next to the open kitchen which was very annoying!

    We were very disappointed. Our food was not hot when delivered and both of our dishes had little taste and certainly not what we expected. It was a special occasion for my wife which I indicated when I made the reservation. Needless to say there was not recognition of that on the part of the staff. A very disappointing experience.

    The potential for this restaurant is high but it fails on so many levels with food, and staff. Ingredients were switched out without our being told. Food was served without utensils; food came out at different times, forcing us to wait. We had to ask for our drinks 3 times. Small details such as having to ask for creamer and sugar with coffee, which the creamer came in a water glass too, requires better mgmt. & training of staff. For being a prime restaurant in a prime location in a prime hotel in Lancaster we expected more.

    My husband and I had dinner last night before going to the Fulton Theater. I ordered Prosecco - they were out. I then ordered Pinot Grigio - also out! What restaurant with a full bar doesn't have either of those??? I ordered the salmon - it was very good. It also came with asparagus and lentils. Asparagus was very tough - it should have been peeled. There was enough lentils on my plate to feed 4 people. Overkill big time. We shared the Citrus Tart for dessert. The filling was light and delicious. I needed a chain saw to cut the crust. Not sure we'll be back any time soon.

    The service was very good but the hostess was not friendly and tried to put us in bar area When asked to change to the dining area was told all tables were reserved. Pointed out we had a reservation and asked about a booth that appeared open and was told it had to be cleaned but reluctantly said we could have it. In the next hour and a half, at least three tables in the same area were unused although we were initially told all were reserved. Upon our departure, this was pointed out to the lady and her response was ungraceful. It will be some time before we return!

    Nice upscale lunch spot with a trendy vibe. The market cheese plate was delicious, and our meals were top-notch. We both enjoyed our chicken katsu sandwiches - the ingredients came together in a perfectly harmonized way. Yum! Service was good and turnaround was just-right to be quick but not rushed. Highly recommend!
