First time at Theo’s on Sat night. I wanted prime rib and was told they did not make any tonight. But the cook could re-heat friday night’s prime rib, but, only med well to well done. [IF I WANTED $25 LEFTOVERS I WOULD HAVE STAYED HOME] Should have left after that. Ordered oysters rockafeller and was told by waitress there was 5 in the serving, only got 4. The were bland, no flavor and didn’t release the oyster from the shell which made them hard to eat. My seafood entree was bland. The same spice was on the shrimp, scallop and haddock. The stuffing in the lobster tail was over bearing with pepper flavor and couldn’t taste the crab if there was any. My wife’s veal was over done probably because it sat under the heat lamps for 1/2 hr because the sevice went down hill after commenting to the waitress about oysters, and not because it was crowded only 11 tables 2&4 tops with 3 servers. Hostess did not even say have a nice evening or anything when we left. I was a chef and I would not recomend eating here.
Theo’s is a great neighborhood place. Love the greek salad - ask them to put a piece of grilled tuna on top. Sit at the bar and take in the nice, relaxing vibe. Rarely have I been for a sit down, traditional dining experience - I prefer the bar/salad gig. If you’re looking for that and are in the Camp Hill area, then check out Theo’s. The ambiance is very nice. I would agree with the above poster….nothing out of the ordinary, but just all around good.

Very average. Steak quality does not compare to the price. Service was good, but I probably won’t be back.
