Tony’s Mining Company Restaurant - Lebanon (PA)

5 /5 Dennis Sorensen: Wow, great experience. Made reservations for four for a get together with old friends. Opens at 5, there were people waiting in their cars to get in! Nice, long bar with quick and friendly service. Seated quickly once other couple arrived. We requested in the reservation seating by the fireplace. It is on a first request basis and seating is limited. Recommended if you like fireplaces and it just added to the whole experience. Everyone there was super friendly. Alice took care of us and did an exceptional job. She explained the specials, describing the dishes with great recommendations and continually checked on us. All the dishes ordered were amazing. I got the tomahawk porch chop, wow, was it good. The one side was a butternut puree. It wasnt something I would have ever thought about pairing with the chop, but admittedly, it was delicious! My wife got the sirloin tips and loved them. Our friends got the halibut and said it was very good. Each couple split desserts and glad we did. We got the Creme brûlée (uhm, wow) and the other dessert was a warm chocolate chip cookie with ice cream (very good). Three of us had the French press coffee, which was very good! Overall, it was a great experience. The staff is friendly and responsive. The restaurant is rustic looking, but clean, well organized and festive. Its supposed to be a mining company so it makes complete sense! The food was exceptional. Plenty of parking. Highly recommend reservations.

3 /5 Nathan Hoeltzle: This was my first visit, wasnt very impressed. Waited 15 minutes later than our reservation to be seated, when close to half of the tables were open. Food was very expensive, but didnt live up to its price tag - except for the smokey bacon crab dip, that was very worth it! My wifes lobster was chewy, and the supposed butter that came with it tasted like warm olive oil. I got grilled salmon and it was very bland, the accompanying sauce and toppings were very bitter and didnt help the flavor. Waiting staff was very polite overall. Would consider coming back if they made some changes to the menu.

5 /5 Mary Ditzian: I wish I would have gone here much sooner. The place is fantastic. From the hostess, the service, the food and the atmosphere. Everything on the menu sounded incredible and I wanted to try everything, but we settled for the Brussels Sprouts as a starter. We eat Brussels sprouts almost everywhere we go. These were bacony (if thats a real word) and had a nice apple flavored sauce that was to die for. We both had the same salad. My husband usually goes for a Caesar or a Wedge salad. I wish he did because I wouldve just to try another amazing salad. The fields edge was really tasty and delicious. He got the steak frites and I got the swordfish special. Both amazingly prepared. I was going to get the scallops or the Salmon, but Jacob (who is an amazing server) sold me on the Swordfish special with the crispy potatoes. Next time, the scallops for sure. Joanie an amazing hostess. Everyone there has incredible personalities. We will definitely be back!!! Oh and by the way the table next to us had Irish coffees. They serve it directly in a French press. Such a cool way to serve coffee. We asked and they had it.... Cappuccinos ❤️. So many places dont have a machine or didnt know how to make them. This place has one of the best Cappuccinos in the area. Thank you.

4 /5 Sharon: Sitting near the fireplace on a cold January night was very enjoyable. The food was better than the average restaurant in Lebanon, but pricey. Surprisingly, there were no vegetarian options. 9Ive also never paid $18.75 for a perfect manhattan drink before even in Paris France, it was overly priced! Playing soft jazz or classical music would have made the ambiance more interesting. Overall, it was a nice experience.

2 /5 john vanderwende: Back in the day this restaurant was amazing. After our dinner last night we will not return. The service was good. The food was not. Appetizer was embarrassing. Salads did not have a pleasant taste. The filet was cooked perfect but taste and presentation was not good. After googling the ownership it all became clear. It tasted like a catered meal. No choice of bread and we could not have the mushrooms and disgusting sauce/ gravy removed from our filets. Disappointed.
