Brass Lantern - Hardin

We go to the Brass Lantern every chance we get. Great Steaks prime rib! Love the atmosphere , servers owners. Have never been disappointed . Always take out of town guest here and they are amazed with the quality of the food and hospitality . Keep up the good work.

Two stars because my food was very good yet inexpensive and the servers did a great job. Yet the inside is very dark and has an older musty smell, yet it is a historical building. My concerns were the cleanliness and food safety. There was no soap in the restroom but they refilled it once I said something. It does make you wonder if any workers might have not washed their hands. Menus were being placed on top of silverware. There was a dirty plate with crusty food on the stack of plates at the salad bar and my water glass was not clean. The staff was aattentive to these things but I'd challenge the owner to consider experiencing their restaurant as though they were a customer from time to time and not letting having owned a place for so long lull them into complacency. Lots of potential in this place.

The food was great. Feel free to dress casual, we was over dressed.

I loved the atmosphere, very quaint. Staff was very efficient. Our waitress was the only one but she was holding her own making sure everyone was alright. Hostess came a few times also asked if we needed anything. The food was very tasty. Portions were perfect. Not too much not stingy either. I loved the salad bar. Very nice over all.

Service was 5 star! Filet and lobster 5 star! Atmosphere 5 star! Salad bar at this nice of a restaurant...wth? I proposed to my wife here 35 years ago. So happy it was still here for our 33rd anniversary. Great place with great memories.
