Chef Thomas Harkins creates cutting-edge, contemporary American cuisine, offering seafood-inspired choices at breakfast, lunch and dinner, using the very freshest ingredients in his farm-to-table techniques. The freshest fish, meat and produce, locally sourced from regional farmers make dishes like Pan Seared Pocono Trout, Butter Poached Barnegat Bay Fluke and Jersey Sea Scallop Salad truly special. Our Reading Terminal Cheese Plate even features local artisanal cheeses, and, if you’re not in the mood for seafood, there are plenty of meat selections, from beef and lamb to tenderloin. Take a cozy table for two, or join the group at our lively communal table. Or, try traditional American treats like salads, sandwiches, pizza and burgers.

Solely Disappointing

The meal started off on the wrong foot, and just never seemed to regain its footing…

I was eating alone so I sat at the bar…asked for a beer to begin with, and was served a Stella Artois as flat as tapwater. After I pointed it out to the bartender (shouldn’t he have noticed when he poured it?) he was nice enough to take it back and bring me a bottled beer from their limited selection. A few minutes later, a manager came along and removed half of the taps…they must have been having some problems.

The pancetta-wrapped scallops appetizer was one (1) scallop wrapped with a scrawny slice of American-style bacon. For $12.95. I was hungry, so I ate it and moved on to a steak for the main course.

The NY Strip steak was OK — had more gristle than a nice steak should usually have, but it was certainly the high point of the meal.

Dishes I tried:

Pancetta-wrapped scallops

“Pancetta” by Oscar Meyer wrapped around one lonely little bay scallop. Disappointing on several levels, but I ate it anyway.

NY Strip

3.0 star rating

OK. The steak had a bit of gristle, but it was thick, flavorful, and cooked properly. The whipped potatoes were good. The asparagus spears were overcooked.

Bring your money

This place is very expensive especially for what they serve. I'm guessing because of being in the Lowes Hotel they can do that since majority of the people there are guest of the hotel and thats just as expensive for a stay. The seafood…
