We had to wait to be seated. We were too close to the piano and overall the noise level was high. Wait staff seemed disorganized. But the food was delicious!

As always the food was delicious. I had a veal entree which was quite tender. My husband had the pork chop special and enjoyed his as well. We have never had a problem with any of the food. Highly recommend.

Overall, the restaurant received mixed reviews from customers. While some raved about the outstanding French onion soup and delicious Elk special, others were disappointed by the dry Elk and sticky fettuccine alfredo. The service received high praise, with a particularly attentive and friendly waitress. However, some customers experienced long wait times for their tables and poor explanations regarding drink refills. Despite these setbacks, the ambiance was described as great, especially for outdoor dining by the river. The food received high marks, with dishes like Pollo Arrabbiata and pistachio cake being highlights. The staff was praised for being polite and helpful, with exceptional service for special occasions. Overall, customers seemed to have a pleasant dining experience, with some minor issues detracting from an otherwise enjoyable visit.

We have been dining at Sambuca for many years. That in itself tells you of the quality of the food and service.

During my work trip to town, I discovered this restaurant for dinner. I parked on a nearby street and entered to a warm welcome. I chose to sit at the bar, where my bartender, Sara, was incredibly friendly. I started with a Pinot Noir, which was decent, and then had an espresso martini, which was quite enjoyable. For my main course, I opted for the shrimp marsala and swapped out the vegetables for pasta, and it was absolutely delicious. The flavors were fantastic. The bill was quite reasonable as well. Overall, I had a great experience.

Sambuca Grille is a fantastic option for anyone craving a delightful Italian meal. We arrived early on a Friday at 4:30 p.m. and, although the kitchen didn't open until 5 p.m., we were quickly seated at a table where we enjoyed a couple of martinis. The chocolate martini was indulgent, featuring a mix of vodka, dark crème de cacao, and Bailey's Irish cream. The Perfect Sky was a refreshing blend of raspberry vodka, peach schnapps, lime juice, and a hint of ginger ale. The pasta dish was exceptional, showcasing braised beef ravioli smothered in a rich creamy champagne sauce, garnished with roasted red peppers and peas. Our servers were friendly, and the ambiance was laid-back, complemented by soft music playing in the background. Sambuca Grille is definitely a place worth visiting for an outstanding dining experience.

We didn’t have reservations, but they sat us immediately. The food was delicious. Service was fine. No issues. I had the pollo parmigiana and it was outstanding. Also had the cheesecake for desert. Only complaint was that it was too cold and not as soft as I’d like it. Still delicious.

Went for New Years Eve dinner. As always everything was wonderful! Loved the Lobster Bisque soup. The Linguine Boho was outstanding! And the carrot cake was delicious. Service here is the best! Can't wait to go back!

We visited this restaurant on a Tuesday evening since many downtown Scranton establishments were closed. It was quite busy, and it felt like a lot of people...

The food at this restaurant was simply outstanding and one-of-a-kind. The Caesar Salad, particularly when topped with anchovies, was the best I've ever tasted. I also sampled a special penne dish with sausage...
