While traveling we spent one night in Harrisburg. The bartender at our hotel recommended this place. We were very tired after a day of traveling and we had a very relaxing and enjoyable meal here. The crab cakes were wonderful. A good salad, wine and we were very happy.

This restaurant has been around for a long time and when you taste the food you will know why. Their crab cakes are phenomenal. They have homemade soups, awesome steaks. If you haven't been there you are definitely missing out.

Restaurant menu has changed little in the 30 years I've lived in the area. It is consistent. I find better restaurants in the area. At the time (30 years ago), it was the place to go.

We planned to stop at a different place down the street, and that place was closed. Saw the cool sign, and decided to give it a shot, we didn't even check Yelp before hand. We walked around to the front and came in through the main dinning room, I guess the entrance is the door in back by the parking... More

They claim Prime Rib as a house specialty and it was order medium rare and came out rare. When they brought it back it was difficult to cut and chew. I had the Filet and if was only fair and the mushrooms that I order were out of a can. The Greek Salad was one of the best I have... More

Great old-school steak house. Strip steak & greek lambchops were excellent. Drinks were good as well. We arrived just before closing on a Monday night, and the service and food were very good. Very pleased.

This is the only place north of Baltimore that I will order a crab-cake. The food has been exceptional for the last thirty+ years.

We were driving through Harrisburg and Progress Grill was recommended by the desk manager at the hotel. Food was great, decor a bit "dated," location - on a busy street with parking in the back. Not the kind of place that attracts casual "walk-in" traffic.

We have been going to the Progress Grille for over 30 years. The steaks and broiled crab cakes are exceptionally good. We're from New York City, and love good food. Trust me, The Progress Grille starts with high quality meat, and they know how to prepare it. The crab cakes have virtually no filler. When available, be sure to try... More
