Lauren Every single bite better than the last!! We ended up here on a whim and were seated right away on a Saturday night. Our server Hannah took great care of us, and the restaurant is up on the 6th floor with an incredible view. The food was stunning. We have 2 vegetarians in our group and were thrilled with our options - the appetizers had creative flavor combinations and everything was so unique. Kimchi roasted cauliflower, roasted crispy chickpeas, incredible asparagus in a delicious bed of sauce, a roasted corn risotto… ridiculously good. My dad said the short rib was a bit dry, but the flavors were excellent and that it didn’t detract from the overall strength of this meal. Would strongly recommend for a nice date or fancy occasion!

Raul maldonado I think this was my 3rd or 4th time coming, and I have to say, the BEST chicken dish I have ever had in my life was from here, such an explosion of flavors it makes me want to just meditate with each bite to fully immerse myself in the flavor! Our waittress was the sweetest thing ever too! She was very attentive, very informed on the menu with great dish recommendations as well as very nice to us throughout our stay! I definitely want to come back again as soon as possible to get me more of that chicken breast!!

Jonathan Witmer-Rich Excellent food, great vibes, we loved it. Three of us shared the papas a la huancaina appetizer, the ceviche entree, and the lomo soltado de carne. All three were great. Friendly staff, good service. Just a fantastic meal all around.

Grace Li Potato Leek Soup was delicious. The bread that comes with it pairs with it perfectly. The burger was delicious. The romaine and red onion slaw, cheddar and 5 hour onions complimented it so well. The house blend mix of fries you get were so crispy and delicious too. My husband’s crab cake sandwich was very good and light too. We used to eat at urban table whenever we stayed the night, but this will now become our new dinner spot. Service was friendly and attentive. I liked how the place wasn’t super crowded when we first arrived and they didn’t place all guests in the same corner like most places do. My husband and I were seated in a nice spot away from anyone. Also, the manager greeted us and also checked in with us. I saw him do that to other tables as well. More restaurants should adopt this model of service. It makes a great impression especially on first time diners.

Kayti S My partner and I stopped by Twisted Olive for a date night without a reservation and were still able to get a cozy outdoor table- exactly where we wanted to sit. The outdoor seating section we sat is on the sidewalk, which we personally love for the lively, open-air vibe (though it might not be everyone’s thing). I think there was another section that was more sectioned off/ clearly apart of the restaurant though. Service was excellent from start to finish. Even with outdoor seating, we never felt forgotten- our server checked in just the right amount, was friendly, and gave us great recommendations for both food and cocktails. I ordered the sirloin cooked on the stone, which was such a fun and unique experience- our server even walked me through how to cook it properly at the table. My partner had the pork belly salad, which was incredibly creative and full of flavor. Both dishes plus our appetizer were delicious and the cocktails were out of this world. We also loved hearing a bit about the restaurant’s background.. apparently the owner has a garden that provides some of the vegetables for the menu (don’t quote me, but it was a cool detail!). Everything about the experience the food, drinks, service, and atmosphere was wonderful. No notes. We’ll definitely be back to try more menu items soon!

Zach Weitzel Great place. First time here and it won’t be my last time. The food was amazing. Absolutely loved what I had; the open face Ruben! Delicious!! Well worth it and the prices weren’t bad at all.

Matthew Winkler Best happy hour and drink prices in bethlehem. $8 smoked old fashion for happy hour and it was delicious. Great lunch specials. $14 chicken katsu bento box and it was perfect. Plus Nick behind the bar could not have been nicer or more knowledgeable. My wife and I will definitely be back.

Brandon Eustice I had the 16oz New York Strip and my Wife had the braised beef short rib. We shared oysters for our appetizer. The oysters came with a variety of sauces/garnishes, all of which were spectacular. Both the quality of ingredients and the craftsmanship in preparation of our dinners were phenomenal. Our bill was $140, so don’t come here expecting a tremendous value, but you definitely don’t feel shortchanged either. The atmosphere is elegant and calm, the service is great (had two waiters), and the food exceeds expectations even for the price. We waited about an hour and a half for the two of us to be seated, but we didn’t have a reservation and we put our name in early, so we didn’t mind. The casino has a lovely bar called The Coil that we hung out at and watched football until it was time for dinner.

Matthew Winkler Great food. My wife and I love this restaurant and it has the best food on main street Bethlehem. Get the trimofongo with sausage and creole sauce. Also cant come here without the fried app sampler.

Morgen Hatton We came early. The morning was bright. The kind that makes you feel clean inside. The kind that makes you want coffee and something hot to eat. Amber ordered the Skutchy. She said the name like a secret. It came crisped and folded, warm and golden, dusted with sugar like snow on the high mountains. Potatoes beside it, browned with purpose, no nonsense. I had the weekly special. Something new, something daring. A sandwich that carried weight and meaning. Sharp greens, meat slow-cooked with care, drizzled with something dark and sweet. It filled the plate and the belly. The coffee was good. Hot, honest. Shannon made sure the cups never stayed empty long. She moved with grace, and when she spoke, you listened. Her voice had that thing. Warmth and story, like a fire that doesn’t smoke. Billy the chef came out. Wiped his hands. Talked to us like we were old friends. He cooks like he means it. We talked about Bethlehem, and how the downtown still holds charm. Shannon told us about The Tavern at the Sun Inn, said we should see it next time. We will. There are meals you eat and forget. Then there are meals like this, with people like that. If you are ever in Bethlehem, you stop in at The People’s Kitchen. You hope Shannon’s working. You hope the chef’s name is still Billy. And you drink your coffee slowly. Because some places are worth coming back to.

Richard W After dining here a few times, I’m convinced Francisco’s is one of the best restaurants in the area. The food’s cheap, delicious, filling, and incredibly consistent. You’d be hard pressed to find a better value than the $8 yuca con chicharrones. Even though it’s listed as an appetizer, it’s almost a full meal. The meat’s well-seasoned with a savory marinade. The yuca is soft and fluffy with a lightly oily crispy crust—not an easy feat to achieve consistently. Other dishes I’ve tried were also amazing. The pupusas have such a deep corn flavor. I’d skip the beef empanadas as the chicken empanadas are much tastier. The cow’s foot soup is warm, soft, and comforting from all the slow-cooked collagen. I do wish it had a punchier flavor, but it does its job of being a comfort food. Overall, for the price, it’s hard to beat the value offered by Francisco’s.

Marlayna crespo I was walking the area and decided to stop in, I always drive by but never went in. I had the Crab Benedict it was packed with so much flavor!! Loved the dish entirely. The home fries were cooked good and crispy. The price you pay is worth the portions. Customer service is very good here also! Lovely, kind and friendly waitresses.
