Five Star Dining. I feel like I'm dining in NYC when I'm here. The wait staff is brilliant. Acknowledging our need for a European style of dining, lingering over cocktails & every course; or when we're here for more of an American style, because we're on our way to something afterwards. The calamari, spring roll & sauce is not to be missed. I tasted my friends salad, since I had opted for the delectable dumplings, and asked the waiter if it would be possible to purchase a bottle of the salad dressing to go. It was that good! I wanted Salmon but was confused by the three offerings. So I went with our servers suggestion & thanked him copiously. The Chu Chee was delicious! The specials are always difficult to resist but my other friend had to have her Chicken Pad Thai. After tasting it, I was considering getting an order to go! I did take home an order of the coconut ice cream, along with my salad dressing. We were all so pleased with our fine dining experience. It's a comfortable place...diners are dressed up or very casual. This is, by far, my most favorite place to dine. It's not only a fusion of food, it's a fusion of people. Five Stars for the Formosa.
Adolescent management, but food passes the test. Spring rolls are tasty.
Great food, great atmosphere, music, drinks and staff. Nothing negative to say abou this place. Highly recommended.
Shirley Lewis. Wonderful to see other rave reviews of this restaurant. It is one of our favorites. The food is wonderful, the steamed dumplings are perfect, the drinks are potent, the coconut ice cream is tantalizing and best of all the servers are intelligent and can spot those that want to eat and run and those of us that want to linger, nibble and chat. Everyone should try this place. It's at the top of MY list.
GREAT!. Best calmari in the WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've only visited once, but the Asian fusion food was delicious. Three of us ordered appetizers, entrees, and deserts and shared each. Everything was well prepared. The Basil Filet Mignon was particularly good.
Everything they serve is amazing. My family came because we couldn't find anything available anywhere else, and 2 minutes into our meal we decided this place will be a regular thing from now on. I had the the honey duck. Everyone raved about it.
You can drive by this restaurant and not realize what you missed!!!! The turn-in to the parking lot is quick also!
My son was invited to a friend's birthday party here. It's a very intimate and cozy ambience; a series of turns until reaching the small banquet area. There was room for about 15 of us and a table with appetizers was set up at the entrance to the dining area. (The vegetable rolls were beyond words!!!!)
Everyone had the option to order their own plate: Chicken, Salmon.....
I ordered the chicken and when I seen the serving size, I didn't think I would finish it. But it was cooked with just the right amount of seasoning, I was impressed I ate the whole thing!!
They make their own coconut ice cream; doesn't sit heavy in the stomach!
This is quite a drive from my location; however those with me were talking about having a birthday party here in the future!!!!!
I would go for a night out: birthday party or otherwise.
We visited the area on a Friday evening. Formosa offers a pleasant atmosphere with soft music. Service is attentive. Food presentation is tasteful. Portions are plentiful. The Chicken Pad Thai could feed a family. I had a grilled ahi tuna with curry sauce (special) which was excellent. On the critical side the place could use a face-lift, bathroom is clean-ish but tired and my chair was wobbly. In my opinion the food is pricey, but I'm just a visitor.
Excellent waiter, lovely presentation,and rich wonderful food! The atmosphere was lovely as well.
The food was amazing and the place was beautiful! My husband had the orange duck, I think, and he keeps saying "it was the best meal he's ever had at a restaurant !'
One of the Scranton-areas best, upscale Asian restaurants. Live jazz trio on Wednesday nights. Business casual attire is fine. The food was excellent and the portions were large enough that no one in our party left hungry (plus some of us took home leftovers). The staff was terrific and the decor was classy without being overwhelming. My wife and I left with plans for what we'll order next time we go.
I have been eating here for more than 10 years.. Everything about this place is classy.. The food is extremely, and I mean extremely good.. The atmosphere is perfect.. Low lighting, not too bright.. They serve alcohol, and the bartender has always been on point with drinks. Restrooms are extremely clean which is always a plus. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure they accommodate you in every way. Hands down one of my favorite places in NEPA..
