Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Erie

Excellent food, excellent service but be aware Manhattan prices.

My family has dined at this location 3-4 times/month for the past couple of years. Food is always outstanding! If I had to grasp for something to complain about, parking can occasionally be a challenge, but that’s to be expected in any popular area. North has fabulous food with a casual and enjoyable atmosphere at a reasonable price.

I grew up in the South and am always on the hunt for good fried chicken and biscuits! We've eaten at several of the Post locations in the area and the food was good. However, today our visit was OUTSTANDING! The chicken was hot, super crispy exterior and perfectly moist inside! The flavor was all chicken and goodness. Not too salty, not bland at all. I had the half fried chicken with mashed potatoes and my husband had the fried chicken sandwich. He loved the sandwich and the hatch chili mac and cheese. I also ordered the crunchy slaw which complemented the chicken perfectly! We also had cheesy biscuits and they were hot, tender, and delicious!! My only small complaint was the rosemary was unexpected and a little heavy in the biscuits. They would taste more authentic without it and really, if biscuits are done right (and these were!), they don't need any additional flavoring. Lastly, the service was terrific! Darby was a delight to chat with and was genuinely interested in making certain we had everything we needed. This was an excellent experience and going forward, The Post Lafayette will be our go to location for the best fried chicken in Colorado!

EL FIVE was a great place for my son's birthday. The ambiance and food were amazing. And staff were all so attentive to our needs and very knowledgeable about the menu. The chef sent out some incredible dishes to our table. CATY was a fantastic server, knowledgeable and great personality to make our experience top notch.

This was our second time to dine here. Love the ambience. The food in general was not as good this time as it was when we dined here last year.
