Great atmosphere, gourmet food, and you can combine your visit to include enjoying a film at the restored theatre on the first floor of this unusual building.

Beautiful ambiance. Upscale, yet comfortable. Foods are original and not your typical fare. Wonderful menu. A bit pricey, but worth it for a special occasion. Ask for the honeymoon corner seat! Very private.

The dining room wows you but unfortunately the food fell short: salad with pomegranate dressing was far too sweet, hangar steak tough (and I asked for med. rare knowing it shouldn't be overcooked) and fries were soggy. Maybe an off night?

We decided to eat here for our anniversary and was not disappointed. While the food is a bit pricy, the quality, presentation, and taste is worth it. During the summer they have a four layer Citrus Cake that is to die for. It is layers of orange, grapefruit, lemon, and lime cake with an orange crème filling and white custard... More

I made a reservation for 11 people to celebrate my parent's 50th wedding anniversary. My mother & my sister had both dined at Lily's before and recommended it highly. I immediately fell in love with the art deco decor. The restaurant is gorgeous. On the day we were there, the place was deserted with only one other elderly couple seated... More

I was a bit put off initially when we had to wait several minutes for the hostess to quit chatting with the kitchen staff and notice we were standing there. However, even if the hostess was ineffectual, this restaurant has great food and we had great service. I wish I could remember the name of our waiter. He was helpful... More

Lily's is located on the second floor of the Brossman Business Complex Building, an absolutely lovely building constructed from high class materials. There are windows located on two sides overlooking the town of Ephrata. Our food was excellent served with flair.I love crisp white tablecloths and napkins while eating. The servers are attentive and the greeter took the time to... More

After an exhausting travel day and unfamiliar with the area, I just wanted to go somewhere that served good food. After reading some restaurant reviews I decided on Lily's and am so glad I did! The "big city" atmosphere was unexpected and my meal was delicious! It is evident by the delightful food presentation that the chef has a passion... More

The food was very interesting but didn't quite hit the spot with our taste buds that night. Drinks were very good.
