devon seafood + steak

i am from atl and upon taking my seat at devon's, it seemed very familiar. it turns out that it is a sister restaurant of chequers in atlanta where i have eaten many times. like chequers, devon's did not disappoint. the service, food, and ambience were all excellent. the highlight here for me was the bestlobsterbisque i have eaten in a long time. eat here without hesitation.

we worked near hershey earlier this year and found ourselves returning to devon several times. yes, it's expensive, but it's good and worth the $$ imo. 

make a reservation! don't complain about having to wait for seating if you didn't plan ahead. you will likely wait a while if you don't make one. 

the seafood dishes i had were really good. i was very pleasantly surprised at how tasty their food was considering they are not near the coast and have to have everything flown in. 

their scallops are, bar none, the best i've ever had, anywhere. don't know what the secret is, but man, they are phenomenal! 

appetizers: we've tried several but my personal favorites were 1.) jumbo shrimp cocktail, and 2.) the mainelobsterroll. both were excellent and though i'm not nearby i'd drive back up there to have their food again.

meals: i won't make a recommendation here other than to say that literally every seafood dish i had was perfect. i don't dole out compliments re: food easily, and certainly not for restaurants that charge $30.00-$50.00 a plate. but they nailed it every-time we came. 

alcohol: i actually thought they missed the mark a few times here. consistency was lacking. $15.00 for a drink...it better be good. 

deserts: everything we tried was good. nothing noteworthy (compared to the seafood) but it was all decent.
coffee: meh...again. stick to the main courses. they miss the mark on the coffee 100%. it would take a lot for me to think they'd made strides here.

treat yourself. devon's is a great way to celebrate or to treat that special someone to a decadent meal! i say this because it is on the pricier side, but your money will be well worth it. great atmosphere: dim lighting and warm fireplaces. they have a beautiful bar that seems to have just about every type of alcohol you could think of. but best of all they have fresh fish options, and the menu changes frequently. the servers are very knowledgable about the menu and the different types of fish (which go best with what drinks and sides, etc.). while all of the sides are delicious, i highly recommend the slaw and thelobstermac and cheese.

steak. seafood grill it may be, but the steaks they prepare are phenomenal. never had a problem with it. theirlobstermacaroni and cheese gets plenty of recognition as well. give this place a try if you have the necessary funds; it should be worth it.

what a lovely restaurant!. our family had a delicious meal here recently. the atomsphere is very nice. we had a party of 10, which included children, and had a private dining room. the biscuits that we were greeted with were hot and fresh off the baking sheet. we loved so much about this place but the highlights were definitely the heirloom and tomato mozzarella salad with basil ice cream. basil ice cream you may think? but it was truly exceptional. also, the vegetable ravioli sauteed shrimp, and thelobstermac and cheese. so good. i will say that i didn't love the mini new englandlobsterrolls but overall it really was such a great dining experience.

yum!. my food was delicious and my sever was knowledgeable and helpful. it is rather expensive, but i loved thelobstermac and cheese.

had valentines day dinner there. fresh tasty rolls at the table, server was great expaining menu, food was excellent had steak andlobstertail. hubby had steak and crab caked. could use a little more lighting in the dinner room only thing i would change. will return in the future.

went for lunch. interesting modern decor. i felt lighting was a little dim. seafood is delicious. also, trylobstermac n' cheese. pricey, but all great seafood restaurants are. on par with metropolitan restaurants.

absolutely amazing!! all of the food was delicious, especially the escolar, lemon asparagus risotto andlobstermac and cheese. knowledgeable and friendly staff. can't wait to come back!!

really good choice for seafood. i have now been to devon several times. yes, it's a bit expensive. yes they can get crowded. yes, you probably need a reservation. that said, it has become one of our favorite restaurants. we chose to take the immediate family ( including our 7-year-old grandson) to dinner of easter. every dish was excellently prepared, even the entree from the kid's menu. the staff was very pleasant and accommodating. i like it. we still go to redlobsternow and then, but i highly recommend devon seafood grille for a quality product, with inviting surroundings and a staff that likes what they do. bravo!

fresh and delish seafood.. we've repeatedly gone to devon's because we simply love their seafood! they fly in their seafood fresh daily, and this is what makes them top notch.

-my personal fave is the seared walu with the dashi broth with the chinese egg noodles. you can get this any day no matter what the seafood special is (as long as they've flown in the walu that day!). their halibut is also very, very good.

-we've had a number of their apps, all delicious. oysters (fresh), calamari (with veggies!), and tuna tartare (one of our absolute faves)\

-sadly, their filet mignon wasn't satisfying, and theirlobstertail was too salty. and while i won't order those items again, it certainly won't keep me from coming back time and time again!

devon is hands down the best dining experience in the hershey/harrisburg area. the seafood is outstanding-fresh-well-prepared-and the menu items are innovative- try thelobstermac'n cheese. the service is excellent and the ambience is more big city than anything closer than new york or philly. the happy hour drink/lobster/oyster specials and the affordable lunch menu featuring their $10 power lunch makes this a great choice for any time of the day.
