"When we pulled into the lot there were two members of the kitchen staff outside smoking, which I understand being a smoker but still not something I want to see upon arrival. We walked in and there was 1 guy at the bar having a beer. We were told we could sit anywhere since there was 1 table of 4 when we got there at 8:15 on a Saturday night. Said guy was actually the entertainment for the night. After a few minutes of sitting at our table he stood and played guitar to an empty bar. We were given the Pennsylvania only booze list which was larger than expected but there was no wine on the list. We got a glass of wine each which was ok at best. I ordered three small plates which weren 't all that small. The mushrooms and creamy polenta was good. The ravioli was obviously store bought, thick pasta, crappy cheese filling, in a sauce that was house made but not good. The short rib fell apart with a fork but the broccoli was burnt the potatoes were over done and the carrots were underdone. The sauce the ribs came with was overpowering and inedible. My girlfriends burger was ordered medium rare... um I don 't even know what to say... it was grey. It looked like it was boiled, grey, no grill marks, there was no way I was trying it. She said the bacon on top was good. Most dishes came out so hot that we had to wait to eat them which is usually a sign of a microwave. Overall not a good experience. Hell we still had the menus on the table when we left. The staff was very nice even though I had to wait a few minutes for water. I hope they can correct the problems because I would love a local restaurant that warrants the price of their menu."
