Char Magaro makes it her personal duty to keep Harrisburg’s best kitchen (and best bartender) turning out plate after plate of mouth-watering meals. She calls it her "American Bistro.” You’ll call it your favorite stop on the road trip. . . these people know how to cook and it’s without a doubt our favorite restaurant in “the burg."
