We had 2 Cubano sandwiches served pipping hot from the press, pan de aqua bread stuffed with pernil, Swiss, ham, pickles, wrapped in paper for easy eating, crispy crust, cut into 2 pieces. We ordered plantanos maduros to go. We had a good serving of long pieces that we done perfectly. Service is fast and friendly. Food is reasonably priced. Parking is right across the street which makes it so easy to stop any time of the day. It's must stop when passing thru York, not far from Rt 83 or Rt 30 and well worth the detour.

Mission BBQ

Reviewed By Kim E

I had the brisket and my husband had pulled pork. The brisket was very good. You can get sides or just a sandwich. It's kind of a la cart but you can get a meal too. I thought the pricing was a little confusing because the price listed is just for the meat or just the sandwich and sides and a drink are an additional price. Nothing too hard to overcome after your first visit. You order and they call your name. They give you 6 different sauces to try at your table. The best sauces were the bottles that were the most empty but all were reasonably good. The restaurant seats a lot of people which is unexpected because it looks small from the outside. I would recommend. The quality of the meat was good.

We had a great meal on a Sunday afternoon. Everything about this restaurant was classy and quaint. The food was great and prices, while not inexpensive, weren't out of reach for us. There are several very affordable items on the menu too, so folks on strict budgets could manage by ordering appetizers, soup and/or salad. What a nice experience!

White Rose Bar & Grill

Reviewed By netherholt - SE PA

Certainly convenient to the theater we were going to. Ate mid afternoon on a cold winter Saturday, very few people. Returned at 6 for just coffee/dessert & there was a line outside, lots of young and middle aged people gathered about the bars standing and drinking, family and all ages eating at tables. They don't take reservations but allow a 1 hour "call ahead". We shared coconut shrimp appetizer and they were good but the dipping sauce was straight orange marmalade, real thick. We each had crab cakes which were basically lump crab seasoned with old bay (happy with that). Friend had rice pilaf and vegetables, both fine. I had tossed salad which was field greens from a bag, 3 cherry or grape tomatoes, 3 thin slices of cucumber, some shredded cheese. The onion rings were good, albeit a bit greasy - esp after the first one or two. Manhatten cocktail was good at $9, interesting cockail menu but I went with my regular. Not sure I'd go back, but for convenience I'd recommend.

Victor's Italian Restaurant

In 1860, the Green Hill Evangelical Association was formed. Located adjacent to the Green Hill cemetery, in 1895 a piece of land donated by Michael Shellenberger became the current location of the building you are dining in now. While the cornerstone on Victor's reads 1923, it is believed that date relates to the bell tower which was erected but was never operational.In May of 1984, Eunice and Harold Fitzkee purchased the building and created Victor's Italian Restaurant. A fire severely damaged the interior of Victor's on April 8, 2001. Remodeling lasted 4 months and Victor's reopened for business on July 9, 2001. In late January of 2007 the restaurant was sold. Mark & Marie Sindicich and Sam and Ann Marie Yost are the current owners. Patio Dining:New in the Spring of 2011, we now offer outdoor dining for both lunch and dinner on our quaint patio. The patio is lovely in the good weather and offers the same menu and table service as our indoor dining.Victor's dining is considered Casual Fine Dining. Delicious food served in a quaint, cozy 19th Century renovated church. The atmosphere offers diners a lot of charm and character while enjoying a great meal. Many enjoy our delicious Italian cuisine whether it's a last minute reservation or for special occasions. Our unique atmosphere lends itself to romantic dates or special evenings spent with friends and family. We have a notable wine selection and an extensive craft beer menu as well as unique artisanal cocktails. Diners are offered the full menu at the bar as well. We are a smoke-free establishment inside and outside.

Reviewed By Kelly B - Seven Valleys, Pennsylvania

We have had a good run at Victor's over the past two years. I have really enjoyed the lightly breaded egg plant rolls, appetizer or meal and the linguine dish with seafood in a spicy red sauce. Both of those delicious items have been removed from the menu.

The egg plant appetizer is now a small piece of egg plant inside a large hunk of tempura. Overwhelmingly greasy and not recommended.

The linguine dish is now white spaghetti sitting on top of a bed of capers. The red sauce you would savor each time you ordered this dish is but a memory.

Both of the items removed from the menu do require work to prepare. The substitutions are not to Victor's standards that I once enjoyed.

The manager did take both items off our bill. Thanks!

I would encourage you to read the new menu in detail and ask questions on how the items you may order are prepared before ordering.
