"Always a great occasion to dine by candle light that illuminates the Colonial Pewter and delicious cuisine of this East Petersburg gem. Mention the name to any local and you will see a "knowing" recognition on their faces that indicates they already know you are going somewhere special. Don't miss it !!!"

"Was not informed when making reservations that only 4 course meal was available for Mothers Day. For 2 93 year old parents this was just too much food, and there was no flexibility. We were told they couldn't split or have only 1 course."

"The waitress we had was wonderful. She helped my wife pick out something from the menu since my wife cannot have anything with gluton.
The waitress wrapped up my wife take home in the shape of a turkey out of aluminum foil.
My wife and I had a great evening at Haydn Zug's and will definitely return."

"I've been here numerous times over the years and have always enjoyed it. The atmosphere was nice, service was excellent, steak was done to order. They offered a surf and turf special which I made the mistake of ordering. The lobster was served under-cooked, then reheated, and was ultimately tough and uneatable. Avoid the sea food."

Our waiter, (Thomas) was absolutely excellent; in fact, all of the staff members we encountered were just so friendly and accommodating. The food was outanding and very well presented. We certainly will return in the near future. Anybody planning a special occasion should certainly give strong consideration to Haydn Zug for it's food, service, and ambiance."

"Good steak restaurant. However, little of the dishes are unique. Carpet in restaurant is a disaster. It is ratty. Good to average steak and seafood restaurant. Not as good as Penn Square Grill or Accomac Inn. Very similar to the Stockyard."

"We hadn't eaten here for a number of years and found it to be as good as we remembered. While on the pricier side, everything was well prepared and tasty. Many of the dishes are available in half portions which are more than generous enough for most diners - especially when ordering an appetizer and/or dessert. Service was friendly and attentive. Only complaint was the noise level in the dining room made it harder to carry on a conversation as the room filled. Would definitely return."

"They accomplished a Stoudt beer paring over a 5 course meal on the night we attended. Each course was perfectly matched. After the beverage was announced, the course was served fresh out of the kitchen. The service was perfect and the courses were a culinary delight. The cost was reasonable compared to the excellent quality received."
