A mahi taco actually worth the price. A 5oz fillet on a massive soft tortilla in a giant fried tortilla as a big chip to dip. Best bartender in town. Late night food.

We had the Jalapeño Burger and Peanut Butter Burger with jelly ... Everything was great but the most delicious and surprising was the Bacon wrapped Grilled Cheese ! The ambiance was casual and the service was great. Will be returning if I'm in the area.

We visited this place for the first time. We walked up the stairs to sit in the sky bar part. Great atmosphere. You're inside but they have these huge openings to the outside. They actually use garage doors to close them. Upon entering, I noticed that the floor was quite dirty. It needed a good sweeping. They had just recently opened so I was wondering where the stuff on the floor came from. We sat ourselves. The chairs seem a bit wonky and I was a little concern that I may crash onto the floor. There was only a bartender, tending bar and was our server. She smiled, was friendly and was on cue the whole time we were there dining. The drinks she made were good and the selection of bourbons were great! I ordered the buffalo chicken wings with fries. My husband got a burger, fries, baked houlumi cheese and mash potatoes balls. My chicken was good. The fries for my husband and I were so over salted, that even trying to rub the salt off wasn't enough. The houlumi cheese, in my opinion, needed to be paired with something other than honey. The burger and mash potatoes balls were good. They give you plenty to eat. Wide variety to choose from the menu. They only have a male/female bathroo

My experience at 551 West was great. The place was busy, but in a good way—lively, energetic, and welcoming. I stopped in around 6-ish and the place was already popping with music playing over the speakers and sports on the TVs. Groups were looking for tables, and others were heading upstairs to the rooftop bar. Jimmy might be the best bartender in Lancaster—I’d easily put him in the top five. They offer an excellent selection of draft beer and solid food options. I ordered the three chicken tenders with fries. The food took a little while, but it was worth it; everything came out fresh and hot. The price was reasonable too. The chicken tenders were homemade and all white meat—juicy and moist. As I was getting ready to leave, the band started setting up. The free live music really adds to the overall vibe and makes 551 West a great spot for meeting coworkers, hanging out with friends, or even meeting new people.
