Zembies is an awesome original? bar from the grand days of bars pre- prohibition. How it remains with so much of its original wood and marble is just amazing. If you have even a passing interest in art nouveau architecture you have to see this place. I wish I could say the food and wait staff were as good as the decor. Sadly our waiter/ barman was a turd with absolutely no personality. The wings were overcooked to the point of shoe leather. I will however go back on a more traditonal night (we were there on a Sunday late) to see if the bar lives up to my expectations.
I look forward to sampling more of what Harrisburg has to offer.
