    Reservation for 5 people at 7 pm was never found but we were seated anyway because the dining room was over half empty. The waitress never asked if we'd like a kid 's menu for our 5 year old, so we requested one twice as she forgot to bring it after 15 minutes. Ordered a bottle of wine which took 25 minutes to come because they couldn't find it. Sat down at 7, ordered at around 7:30 and received our apps at 8:10. Our daughters Mac n cheese arrived at this time as well and was luke warm at best. Our main courses showed up at 8:40 along with a beer which took 15 minutes to show up. No fresh pepper offered for our salads or mains. The food was very good, but with a tab of $275 which included a $4.95 Mac n cheese, the rest of us ate for $65-$70 pp. Absolutely overpriced, slow kitchen, mistake-laden service and inexperienced management make this place a big miss.

    Went to the Hotel Bethlehem to try out the 1741 on the Terrace restaurant. I had a coupon for my b'day to save $15 so I figured it was going to be a little expensive. I was not disappointed. Prices are fairly high. I think the filet mignon was $35 and the salmon was $25. Back to the restaurant. The hostess is/was a college student who was somewhat bored and not at all interested in doing anything but standing there asking us which of the empty tables we wanted. Oh, but you picked one at a window that isn't set (meaning she would have to set it) -- why don't you take the window seat on the other wall. Not a big thing but if you are going into a restaurant that is supposed to be a little higher service that Perkins you don't say that a table isn't available because a place setting isn't on it. The waitress was fantastic. She was attentive (only had about four tables at once all night) and flexible. We started off with wine -- $45 for a nice white -- she asked when she poured it if we would like to sit and talk for a bit and sip the wine before we ordered. This was a nice touch. She came back after a bit and took our orders and then brought some warm rolls (whole grain?). We continued talking when she came around and commented that she didn't know what was taking so long. I suppose if we weren't talking so much we would have noticed but it was fine that it took longer. The food -- Fillet mignon was really a good cut of meat, done well, had potatoes and veggie and was fine. The salmon was a little overdone on the one end because the cut went from thin to thick. But both plates were well presented and the food hot and very tasty. We finished off the evening with coffee and tea. Nothing to write home about. Just your basic fare. The floor in the restaurant was uncovered when they took up the rug and is tile with a lot of interesting shapes in it. The star in the center of the floor was put there in 2005. The marble steps outside the restaurant were uncovered when they ripped up the carpeting on the steps. Amazing what you can find. Overall the restaurant is good but I don't know if the price makes it a restaurant I would ever go to again in comparison to what you receive for the price (the value).

    Great location and ambiance. Met another couple for dinner. Service started a little slow but once we ordered drinks the staff was attentive but not intrusive. All our meals were quite good. Molten lava cake for desert was great. Extensive wine list. Adequate beer selection. Would definitely go back.

    Location is excellent on Main Street. Service was friendly and attentive. Enjoyed a dinner and 2 breakfasts. Food was okay, nothing special. Love the atmosphere. I will return, but so many choices in downtown.....

    I had breakfast here a few months ago and it was just lovely. If you want a cheap, greasy diner breakfast this is obviously not your place. I came in with my parents, who were both staying at the hotel and because of this got a discount on breakfast, so for us the price was just fine. I got the eggs benedict, which I rarely order because there are too many places that mess it up, but it was perfect and delicious. My mom got a smoothie that was definitely made from the freshest fruit and was sweet and delicious, my dad had a standard eggs, toast, hash browns deal that looked great. The service was great but professional and not overdone, and the atmosphere of the restaurant was beautiful and elegant with huge windows and marble floors.

    Three for Thirty tasting menu- yummy and good price! Oysters Rockefeller were just right, Ahi tuna w/prosciutto wrapped belgian endives was delicious, even though the prosciutto was a bit too cooked Butternut squash dish was actually a soup, something that isn't clear from the menu. Sauvignon Blanc from Australia was fantastic! My coworkers enjoyed the prime NY strip, surf and turf, and lobster bisque. Live piano during dinner was very enjoyable but a bit too loud for conversation and for hearing/communicating with the waiter.....the waiter was trying very hard to do a good job...a little too hard at times. If opentable doesn't show availability, call them! Free parking at the hotel!

    Very disappointing. Went tonight as part of "Restaurant Week", gorgeous building and anticipation was high. 3 course for $35 sounded good. Appetizers: Parsnip purée soup with mushrooms - more mushroom than I expected but pretty good. Grilled Tuna and pea shoots an radish - tasteless and not a high grade tuna, seasoning of any kind would have helped. Main Course Mahi Mahi over sprouts and other veggies - dry and overlooked, no source and under seasoned dish, could not finish it. Short ribs - sides were good but meat was dry and an au jus sauce was no salvaging the dish Beet Steaks - winner on the entree side, not breaded and sautéed like some, but flavorful all the same. Desserts Lemon Tart - pretty good but very tart, you better like lemon sour patch candy to enjoy this. Penn State Mint Chocolate ice cream - always good, but all they did was put it in a bowl. White chocolate mouse - tasted good, served with a little dark chocolate and fresh berries. I was hoping for so much better from the Bethlehem hotel....not a place for fish.

    I loved everything about this place! The atmosphere was wonderful. We sat right next to the giant (and beautiful) windows and not once did I feel a draft or get cold. Our waitress was knowledgeable when we asked her opinion on the large selection of wines. She suggested a wine that would best go along with our meal and also explained why. She was always smiling and very polite. There was also a pianist playing very lovely music! I don't have a single complaint about this place. Dress up!

    To be honest, I only had the Sunday brunch here. It was perfectly fine but a lot of the food they put out was obviously prepackaged or previously frozen. The fresh food like the omelets to order and the carved meat was awesome. I just wouldn't pay this much money for the privilege when I can get an equally awesome omelet for $5 somewhere else. Also I can say that the service was only mediocre. Does everyone just hire local college students with next to no customer service experience or skills? They do make a gigantic Bloody Mary..........

    I was disappointed by our meal here, which I really wanted to like. My main complaint is that most of the food that was served was NOT hot, and we all commented on this. It was being carried some distance from the kitchen to our table (the kitchen is apparently not connected to the dining room) which I imagine accounted for some of the coolness. My sister's soup was so cold when it was poured into her bowl (by an apparently oblivious server) that it was gelatinous. She had to send it back. And that was after my mom had already sent back her salad because it was drenched in dressing. I could have sent back my appetizer and/or entree but I did want to get out of there at some point. (We weren't in a hurry, but the service was somewhat slow.) The atmosphere was certainly beautiful and I enjoyed the live piano music in the background, but these things to me weren't enough to compensate for the food's shortcomings, especially in light of a bill that was $200-plus. The maitre d' obviously knew that we weren't completely pleased, because--as a compensatory gesture--she brought over two free drink tickets (a $14 value) at the end of our meal. We didn't order dessert, but I suppose that could have been comped if we had. Overall I thought the service was good and I'm not writing this review to chastise the hotel. Instead I hope it will be interpreted as constructive criticism (assuming it's read). As a local resident and a Bethlehem native, I genuinely *want* this restaurant to be the jewel it deserves to be, and it's just not right now. I hope it will be in the future.

    Had my girlfriends birthday dinner here and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I made every effort to make it a perfect evening for her and the staff was enthusiastic and cooperative regarding those efforts. I had flowers delivered, they were on the table when we were seated. The staff greeted her with birthday wishes and even sent us a couple of complimentary glasses of champagne. Food was terrific. View was beautiful. We had a great time!

    I had the opportunities of dining once in the terrace and attending Sunday brunch here. The Hotel Bethlehem has an amazing history to it and has entertained the likes of famous patrons such as Billy Joel. The cuisine is standard American with some nice vegetarian options and it is pleasing to note that doesn't change for Sunday brunch either. Bellini's are extra at brunch but you may end up ordering one because it matches the old world charm and class of the ambiance. Staff is professional and attentive. Reservations are a must for brunch and to guarantee terrace seating. It is a slice of history in Bethlehem that we need to preserve and hang onto...

    Ok first, what was good. The service & the salad. Everything else was absolutely horrendous. This place is all hype and nothing to show. I don't even think the staff would eat the food here. I had the lobster Mac n cheese & the lamb chops. The Mac n cheese was tasteless and the lamb came with a putrid purée of turnip that people in a psych ward wouldn't eat. Long story short stay away from this place like you life depends on it. Unless you like spending $150 for crap.

    My wife and I ended up at 1741 because other very well rated spots, Apollo Grill & The Edge, were closed. Unfortunate. The dining space at 1741 on the Terrace is very nice but, possibly too elegant for our tastes. My wife had the lobster and asparagus salad and filet. She enjoyed both. I had the "duck sausage" which was really just an expensive hot dog!!!! Served with a fair corn sucotash. The Ahi Tuna was good. The herb butter on the tuna...ehhh, could have done without. The Endive was burnt and overall I was just disappointed. To spend all this money on a seriously mediocre meal is disappointing. In reality we should have gone to the BrewWorks down the street. I wish the othe restaraunts were open.

    We had a wonderful dinner for my birthday. The ambiance was beautiful, especially the gorgeous Moravian tile floor. The wait staff was courteous and very helpful. The food was good. The wine selection could have been better though. This is a fine dining restaurant so it is a little pricey and not appropriate for kids in my opinion, but that is exactly what we look for in a date night!
