I was pleasantly surprised by the ambiance and quality of Sports and Social in Allentown across from the PPL Center. Sports an Social is a sports themed restaurant with two bars and plenty of seating both in tables and booths. The food is a notch or two above the standard fare as the menu selections are more varied and some are unique for a sports bar. Check their online. I had a buttermilk chicken sandwich and opted for a sweet Thai chili sauce rather than the Nashville hot. The sandwich was tasty and moist and the fries were good, not dry nor overly salted. We ordered coffee which was fresh and brought to our table is a carafe. Our server was attentive and friendly. The restaurant was two-thirds full but yet the noise level not overly loud. You could talk without shouting and hear without lip-reading. Of course, televisions are large and plentiful. We will return.

Professional service. Exceptional food. Well worth the trip.

We were a party of 6 (made the reservation the same day and had 2 openings - thank goodness) and each person got something different so we got a bunch of items. All of our drinks were mixed well and the holiday coquito was a surprise as it was a house special. -Nachos came loaded & the street corn was amazing! - House guac and churros were pretty basic but overall good. Churros were dry and needed that "sugar seasoning" - Compared to all the apps, the Quesadilla was on the smaller size; think 4-5 pieces tiny pieces (looked like some kid's meal). - Entrees (Salmon, Steak, Chicken, tacos) serving sizes were up to par and cooked to perfection. Our server (Lenny) was ON POINT with everything; he remembered all the orders w/o writing them down and kept the refills on rotation. He kept circling making sure we were doing okay and never had to ask for anything twice. The customer service and attention to detail along with the the other waitstaff (servers, food runners, host) were also on point; no one had to wait on food and their turnover from apps/entree/dessert was top. It made the overall experience a delight.

Our server was excellent. Items on the menu not available. Candles not lit on the tables. Just feels worn and not maintained well.
