The loft has been a staple of the dining scene of downtown Lancaster for many years and I am thankful for that for the simple reason that the cuisine that chef Gunther creates is top notch. Furthermore, it is very hard to find a restaurant today that serves such classics as escargot, smoked trout or a simple oyster stew. The... more

My husband and I recently visited Lancaster. We saw the Loft's great reviews on Trip Advisor. We were not disappointed. The food and the service were impeccable. I wish we lived closer. It would be one of our favorite restaurants. more

We went to the loft based on reviews from this site. We were a little apprehensive driving to the restaurant because of a couple of "tough" streets we drove through. We were very surprised when we reached the other side of town. Very trendy, New York like. The restaurant is relaxed and you could dress up or go casual neat.... more

My mother in law and I dropped in for lunch about a week ago. Very nice! They had a nice selection and I have to say the mushroom soup is to die for! WOW! I could eat it just as a meal! Glad I didn't or I would have missed out on the great lunch we had. The staff is... more

It's all good, and I've been to some of the finest restaurants in NYC and Philly and IMHO the Prime Rib stands up to the best of them. I've not had it better. And, the onion soup is some of the best!. You won't be disappointed with whatever you may be hungry for. I believe if you're a visitor to... more

Our waitress was great, the appetizers were great, and we were sat in a very quaint little part of the restaurant but I was very disappointed with my shrimp. I am not a chef but I am a cook and anyone who cooks knows not to overcook shrimp. My shrimp was so overcooked that it was like chewing cardboard. They... more

The Loft is in the center of downtown Lancaster city, within a couple of blocks of the Fulton Theatre and other downtown activities. The atmosphere is just formal enough for a special occasion dinner, but not stuffy. The food and service are excellent. We highly recommend the Loft if you're in the Lancaster area. more

I've been to this restaurant only once so far, but I can't wait to go back! The food is great, the service good, and they give you a huge salad bowl with dinner. more

We dine at The Loft as often as we can. Gunther, the chef and owner creates culinary delights that would impress even the harshest critic. As a Master Chef, he prepares outstanding entrees that you would never expect to find in Lancaster County. But its not only the supurb food, the entire experience is what brings us back time after... more
