Judy's On Cherry

Played loud 70s rock music which killed the atmosphere, entrees were mediocre and overpriced. Service was very good. Overall Judy’s has gone downhill over last few years. Never going back.

Won't be going back here. We had a wonderful waitress Missy but a disappointing food experience. The appetizers and drinks were good. My meal was fine - shortribs. My wife's meal was awful - sea bass. The sea bass was horribly undercooked. You could tell just by looking at it. Judy - the owner - admitted it was undercooked and took it back to "bring it up to temperature. " I guess that means she put it back on the grill with everone else's food after it had been sampled by my wife. The same piece of fish came back out but my wife couldn't bring herself to eat it after it being served so horribly undercooked the first time. We had to pay for it but won't be back.

We must have hit a bad night. The atmosphere is great. The menu is varied and interesting. The food tasted good but some portions were really small while the caesar salad was overloaded with kale and not much of the other promised ingredients. The kitchen and service was very slow. Appetizers came at a slow but acceptable pace. We ordered salads for our main course but they didn't arrive for an hour after we ordered. We had to ask for our water to be refilled. Otherwise, we received no attention during that hour. No acknowledgement when we inquired if our order was lost. We decided to skip dessert because we were concerned about how much longer that would take. Wait staff discussed a problem they were having as they served our food. My companion said she would be willing to give it a second chance.

What a great find. The food was fresh, balanced and a great mix of fresh ideas and just well seasoned dishes. Staff was friendly, attentive and knew the dishes they were serving. Diverse wine menu. Can’t wait to come back.

My husband took me to Judy's on Cheery to celebrate my birthday and our anniversary. This was the best dining experience that we have had ever! Our server Manue was great, very attentive and friendly. Our food was excellent, so beautifully presented and delicious! We had the coconut cake for dessert, which was awesome and Judy even stopped by our table to wish me a Happy Birthday!! Love everything from the beautiful atmosphere, friendly staff and the delicious food!! It is well worth the 90 minute drive for us! Can't wait to go back again! Thank you Judy's on Cherry for a very memorable night!

This place is a favorite of mine since my first time traveling to Reading 10 years ago. Put this on your bucket list and enjoy a relaxed dinner with superb staff and atmosphere!

We enjoyed a beautifully prepared dinner on a very busy weekend evening. Service was excellent, and every bite was delicious. We will definitely be back! We drove 1.5 hours just to check it out and it was worth the drive!

In the Reading area for a work assignment. Stumbled on this very unassuming place and decided to venture in as I had read a few reviews online the week earlier...sounded nice but def understated in reviews. Upon entering the establishment, all spaces/elements I experienced felt very alive - I knew I found myself a gem, only left to see if the food would be cohesive with the appealing concept of the space. Warm & Classy Contemporary; the colors, music, ambiance, smells, lighting and friendliness of staff...a warm welcome and great smooth jazz playing. Everything perfect, colorful artwork, lovely tables settings, lighting concepts. I believe it may have the owner who sat me and proceeded to get specifics from the chefs as to exact ingredients in the soup of the day, right down to the stock used. Then, greeted by a friendly waitstaff, extremely knowledgeable with the menu and helpful as it was difficult to make a selection. The wine selections for Chardonnay we're all new to me, but as all other aspects of this place we're perfect. I did it up...app, soup, entree' and take home for a full meal w/ the Braised Lamb Shank. Everything ordered was over the top in flavor, (contemporary & comfy food mix) presentation and freshness/integrity of ingredients. A dining experience you must try if anywhere in the area. Walked in with a smile on my face and left with a big smile. A shame I don't live in the area, this would be a regular and certainly a favorite of mine. Hope to make it back before I leave!
