“We stop here on our way home from Mt. Airy and every time we do, the staff is friendly and helpful. Not to mention their delicious cheesecakes! Pumpkin is my favorite and I can't wait until it's back!”
“Very nice, unique restaurant and obviously a popular local hot spot. I believe all meals are served in a pan. The food was great, all the meats are smoked and made on site. Michelle my server was friendly and responsive.Parking: Free parking lot, but if it’s busy could be a little difficult since the lot isn’t very big.”
“If you’re tired of the fast food overload in the Pocono mountains and are looking for something home-cooked and fresh- this is your spot! What a nice little surprise. I felt like I was at my grandmas house or an aunt in the Dominican Republic.The rice and beans were fresh and authentic. We also tried the empanadas (chicken and beef) and thoroughly enjoyed them. Great variety of Dominican cuisine. Support local business and try this place out- the amount of food you get for your moneys worth is incredible.”
“Stopped by after staying at the great wolf lodge. Ordered the curry goat and oxtail. It was really delicious and service was also great. I recommend trying them out if you are in the area.”
“Seriously crazy good food... we were lost in the area got hungry and I'm happy we went here..Super cozy place service was really good, but food uff authentic ? ..please do yourself a favor and go here.”
“As always, this is a delightful experience. The food is fabulous. Our chef was so friendly and enthusiastic. Our server Alin could not have been more accommodating and pleasant. We got to see our favorite server Maddie who had taken care of us in the past when we were at the sushi tables in the back. We make this trip from Philadelphia a few times a year because there’s no better sushi anywhere, and the customer service is extraordinary. I highly recommend this place for both special and everyday events.Parking: Plenty of space, well-lit, well- marked, easy access to the front door of the restaurant.”
“This location is always good. No matter in store or drive thru, you always have a bit of a wait. Service quality is great! I've never had an issue with accuracy or quality. This area of 31 is always full of traffic which makes me avoid this place sometimes.”
“Seems like polarizing reviews for this place and I see why. Service was really good and personable and nice, but actually very slow considering the place was 3/4 empty. Atmosphere was decent enough. The beer I had was a really good IPA. The burger was ok, but a little over priced. Most importantly they had lots of good gluten free alternatives and options for my wife, but the upcharge for GF was a little steep.Dietary restrictions: Good for gluten free”
“Great service by Allie! We came here as a bigger group from CT and they were able to accommodate 12 of us very quickly. Allie was wonderful and extremely patient with us. We will be back if we are in the area again!”
“We had the cabbage filling and beef kabob. If you're looking for authentic Eastern European cuisine, you have to try this place!!!! Everything feels like nostalgia and home??? We love you Susan?”
“I stopped by after a long ride from CT. The service was so helpful and the food tastes great. Exceeded my expectations. Dwflintly will be stopping again during my visit in ”
“Angie was my server and she’s such a good time very sweet and knows how to hold a conversation! The food was amazing too very filling and the place is not too loud!”
“We got a catering order from Nick's and it was awesome! 4 ft Italian sub was delicious. Antipasta had a great presentation and tasted great. The eggplant parm we ordered I never got to try because everyone was going back for more! Nick and staff were personable and friendly as well! I would definitely order from here again. Thank you for supplying us with great food for my birthday party!”
“Visited there for our first time yesterday, and all I gotta say is, wow?. The boneless wings had flavor and were really good! We drove from NY. Well worth it! If you're around the Poconos and looking for good chicken wings, this is the place.”
“Wow! What a gem of a find! We were just in town for one night and Googled "restaurants near me" and found Cedars! I am vegetarian and my boyfriend is gluten free and we were both able to find plenty of options to eat! Rita and her beautiful parents were so kind and friendly! We felt like family by the end of our meal! If you haven't been ... it is a MUST! And ... ask if Tony is working! He's the littlest member of the staff, but the cutest! Thank you for making our night Rita! Hugs, Amy and SeanVegetarian options: Falafel is deeeeee-licious!Dietary restrictions: The staff is very knowledgeable and will help you pick food for any dietary needs.”
“Absolutely blown away by the food! Probably the best restaurant I’ve visited this far. The food was exceptional. I ordered the Chilean Sea Bass and the chocolate cake. They sat us right next to the water, which I loved! We had an amazing view of the sky turning pink as the sun set. Our waiter was also very sweet and ensured that we were taken care of.”
“His place is amazing. I’m coming here back to back after trying. It’s just as good as the places in New York if not better. I’m now coming to Home Depot all the time just to come by.”
“This was an incredible meal. The atmosphere was warm and cozy. Staff was attentive friendly and seemed genuinely happy. Ingredients were as fresh as can be, pita and hummus were outstanding, and Israeli tea was lovely.Go try it for yourself cannot wait to come back and enjoy the outdoor dining when it warms up.”
“Great authentic food and atmosphere. On a trip to Wolf Lodge and we needed to eat something good and healthy. Going back tomorrow as well. Great place to eat!”
“Love, love, love this place! The question should be what don't I recommend and the answer is NOTHING! We stayed at the b&b so had the opportunity to have several breakfasts, plus we ate dinner here a couple evenings. Mark is a fabulous chef with a grasp of fun and tasty food combinations. Breakfasts offerings were from traditional to comfort to just plain fabulous. The dinner menu is compiled weekly by Mark and it makes you want to eat here several times in order to try the various dishes. On separate occasions we had a couple of the lemon cocktails, the fois Gras appetizer, curry soup, sea bass (phenomenal), lobster pasta, prosciutto flat bread, chop and both desserts. Everything was absolutely delicious! We needed a few more nights in order to sample more of the menu! I highly recommend eating here, and if possible on more than one occasion!”
“Planned the weekend getaway for my bf’s birthday in this town, sooooo happy to find this amazing restaurant for his big day.The atmosphere was upscale but very family friendly. Service was great even though it was very busy on a Saturday night. The server tried her best to check with us if everything went OK, I saw her kept running back and forth to the kitchen, and I’m sure the kitchen was super busy as well.Food: they have a great selection of appetizers and we seriously wanted to try all of them, we ordered tonight’s special: salmon tartar. Escargot, seared scallops, foie gras & fried calamari.Salmon tartar: love the sauce, very refreshing and it matched with the salmon so well, it comes with the crispy toasts, it gave the crunchiness from the soft salmon texture.Escargot: it wrapped inside the puff, I personally think it’s too much of the puff or not enough escargot inside. I barely tasted the escargot, I would prefer the traditional escargot dish just with garlic butter.Seared scallops: top notch! Perfectly cooked and seasoned, well done dish! Must have!Foie gras: OMG, full of favors, a lot of favors in a bite that melt in your mouth. Another Must have!Fried calamari : I love they have fried zucchini and jalapeños in it to balance out the texture from the calamari .Main entrees we had risotto, monk fish and chicken masala. Great portion. All main were a bit too salty for us, but still tasted good and we enjoyed them.All of the dishes had great presentation which I enjoyed them and think it’s important.I reserved the table online and wrote down it’s for my bf birthday celebration, they did not forget and bring out the panna cotta at the end with a candle and birthday song. Thank you for the wonderful dinner experience.Kid-friendliness: We came with 3 kids and didn’t have any problems. The server liked my youngest and kept complimenting him.”
“So I went to pick up my food from here I had a catered some empanadas and a beef stew for my son's first birthday I was very pleasantly surprised at how good the food was and being from the islands I also tasted some bacala that they had there which really pleased me as a local business I absolutely support this place and you should too not off of my account but try it for yourself I'm sure you'll be happy with the service you get.”
“Amazing ice cream and Excellent selection.My friends and I came here and went crazy. We stopped by after dinner and I’m so glad we did. They have so many awesome flavors, everyone of which were absolutely delish. The ice cream is made with fresh milk from Mannings farm if I’m not mistaken. Very creamy and definitely tastes fresh. Everything we ordered was good. So much that when we left, right before exiting the parking lot one of us jumped out a moving car (jk) to grab 2 pints to take home. Staff were very friendly and efficient. My banana split was made w love. Compared to NY these prices were fantastic, super worth for what you get and the portions are very generous. Scoops are hefty! An absolute must try, if you’re nearby stop by, periodt. YUM!”
“My daughter and I stopped by there today for the first time. I have seen it several times when I have been at the hair salon nearby but had not tried it as of yet. I ordered the fish tacos and my daughter got the chicken thigh bowl. Everything was fresh and was really tasty. I loved how crisp the soft taco wrap was and my daughter really enjoyed the bowl she ordered. The service was very quick and the young man beyond the counter was very helpful and very friendly. The restaurant was very clean and has unique tables and decor. I will definitely be back!”
“The service here is amazing the women who greets you is so awesome. I would come here just for her kindness one of a kind for sure. Great food great bathrooms cash only. Bathroom has very very soft toilet paper which I like alot. Food is reasonably ”
“Some of the best Mexican street food I have ever had! Made fresh to order, the shrimp were plump and tasty, and my husband was sooooooo happy with his Birra taco, complete with dipping sause! This is our new Mexican place!!!”
“From the moment you step through the door, you're greeted with warm hospitality and a vibrant ambiance that sets the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. The restaurant's décor is reminiscent of an authentic Puerto Rico experience.But it's the food that truly steals the show. Each dish is skillfully crafted to showcase the rich flavors and diverse culinary traditions of Puerto Rico.The service at El Rincon is equally commendable, with staff members who go above and beyond to ensure that every guest feels welcome and cared for.In conclusion with its excellent food, attentive service, and inviting atmosphere, it's the perfect destination for anyone seeking authentic Puerto Rican food.Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, simply craving a memorable meal or driving two hours (as we do) a visit to El Rincon is absolutely worth it.”
“I just went in there for the first time yesterday. Not sure why I was putting off going but I'm not a huge wings person but I like to support local businesses so I figured I'd give it a try. The gentleman who was at the counter was amazingly helpful in helping me decide which sauce to get because there are so many choices! The food was absolutely fantastic. I ordered the boneless wings in a Sriracha honey sauce and it was so delicious! I also ordered the cornbread and the banana pudding and both were delicious. The cornbread was actually made on site and warm. I will definitely be going back there and I recommend everybody stopping and try it and say hello. The decor is really pretty and the staff is super friendly! You can also order online and they have an app as well.”
“My family decided to visit Caribbean Deck Cafe while we were vacationing in the Poconos. From the moment we walked in, Shaine treated us like family! He allowed us to taste test a few dishes and we enjoyed talking to him about all kinds of things. As for the food itself, it felt like we were at Shaine's backyard barbeque! He kept piling it on and the portions were huge! We tried the curry goat (my favorite, though everything could arguably be considered a favorite!), the oxtail, stew chicken, and jerk chicken - each dish was full of flavor, hot/fresh, and oh so satisfying! The curry goat was seasoned to perfection, the oxtail was meaty and tasty, the stew chicken meat was fall-off-the-bone (see photo), and the spicy homemade jerk sauce was out of this world! Anytime we go to the Poconos, we plan on being back here for sure. The sides consisted of plantains and cabbage, and both paired very well with each meal. Rice options are rice and peas or white rice (rice was delicious). We dined in and appreciated the large plates and overall attentive experience. After our meal, Shaine hooked us up with sweet potato pudding and Hennessy cake on the house! And I must say: Both hit the spot! The sweet potato pudding was like a slice of sweet potato pie with pudding consistency - it was hot and sweet, and it was exactly what I needed after the amazing meal. Hennessy cake gave me rum cake vibes (note: I don't drink alcohol and am far from a connoisseur) and it was also great! We want to thank Shaine for really going above and beyond to take care of our family. The Poconos community is blessed to have him and Caribbean Deck Cafe! Every 5-Star Review is well-earned/well-deserved, and you will NOT regret visiting. Very highly recommended!!!”
“I have been wanting to stop bye and sample their delightful treats and glad I did, bought some cookies and chocolate cupcakes and a crumb cake slice. The baker/owner was attentive to my requests and made a number of suggestions and placed them in a box for me. When you’re looking to treat yourself after a long day or week look no further!! ENJOY!!!!”
