in my opinion Great Restaurants & Very Good Eateries, Worth Frequenting, In The York (PA) Area ~Updated 3.8.08~ yes, I'm very partial to uber, high-quality Italian, American, Mediterranean, Mexican and Chinese Restaurants, but my selection of the following eateries, is based upon: (1) my own personal dining experiences, (2) the personal dining experience(s) of 'Trusted Gourmand Friends', (3) the personal experience(s) of gourmand-ish GC&N Customers. The establishments are tiered, ordered and rated. I have additional establishments to add, and will do so, as I gather both personal and 2nd-person reviews of their culinary expertise. New establishments, waiting for a tier listing, ordering and rating, are at the bottom of the page. Please give me your feedback, if you dine at any of them. And if you find a new one, not on my list, please tell me, and I will visit, dine and rate it, for "The Restaurants List". First-Tier Restaurants...
