The Story of Josephine’sThe story of Josephine’s begins during our executive chef Daniel LeBoon’s childhood. At eight years old, working for his father’s catering company, Daniel discovered a passion for food. This love — and undeniable talent — saw him intern at Philadelphia’s prestigious Le Bec-Fin. He went on to work in Paris at the venerable Hotel Vernet working under the renowned chef’s Alain Solvere and Alain Ducasse. In 2004, Daniel purchased Josephine’s in Marietta and developed an extremely loyal following based on the combination of great food, great atmosphere and great hospitality. Although Josephine’s closed in 2011, the name and the experiences are fondly remembered by countless people.

    I brought my grandson and daughter-in-law for a preshow dinner. The small room we were seated I had never eaten in before...It was absolutely beautiful...a little cool but much quieter than the main room of the restaurant! Our food was spectacular although a bit pricey. The special was $85 which I thought was a bit much for a smaller filet and a small crabcake. Believe me though this will not stop me from returning to this amazing spot in beautiful Lancaster city!! Lastly our server Benjamin was OUTSTANDING!!!! He was so personable and friendly but so professional. He should train everyone in this business!! Thank you Cest la Vie for another outstanding evening.

    Wonderful dining experience at Kefi, 2nd floor restaurant at Yorgos. Service was terrific, never felt rushed, just attentive. Food was delicious. Three of us split the Greek sampler, which was perfect. Highly recommend the avgolemono soup. We had lamb chops, scallops and a gyro platter. Lamb chops were cooked to perfection, scallops were tasty and had a lovely presentation, and the gyro platter fully satisfied that person's craving for Greek food. Ambiance was pleasant, not too loud, not too quiet, with acoustic guitar background music. I recognized at least one piece as being from Ottmar Liebert's Nouveau Flamenco album.

    Celebrated our 44th anniversary with our first visit to Josephine’s. Heard great things about it and we were not disappointed at all! Food was great, service was excellent, and the atmosphere was just right. Our waiter (Hunter) made the whole experience a great one. And the special menu insert was a very classy touch!!
