“Great service and excellent food. I was expecting your average bar burger and was pleasantly surprised at what I would call elevated pub food. We enjoyed the fried pickles and smashbugers were delicious. Everything was well seasoned and flavorful. I highly recommend and will definitely be back for more!“

“Can I take a moment to send some appreciation to Fritzys? I inquired about something different from the menu. Chef Rob went above and beyond. He doesn’t believe in frozen foods. Chef Rob makes everything fresh. The amount of detail and effort is incredible. There isn’t frozen foods here guys!! This man filleted a piece of chicken… breaded and fried it for me!!! He didn’t reach into a freezer to get some frozen chicken… this man filled and breaded by hand!!! Everything is homemade and delicious! The menu is always changing with specials! Never have to worry about the same mundane foods. We know that’s boring! I honestly can’t thank chef Rob and Kim for what they’re doing to serve our community. No processed junk. All fresh homemade foods!! Thank you for caring about us and giving so much effort!! You guys rock!“

“Very cool new discovery! Great vintage concert poster artwork, the BEST soft pretzels (melted butter and garlic), and KILLER garlic ranch wings (fresh and cooked just right). Good beers, wonderful staff, a great place to grab a bite and brew with friends!“

“I like the 2-2-2 it's a breakfast meal you can get two pancakes or two toast you can get bacon or sausag and eggs it's around $9 it is 8 something but you got to think about tax everybody's so sweet and if you're lucky enough your kid can get a fruit snack and the cheeseburgers but the only bad thing is is tax and you have to pay for water but other than that it's pretty good if you go there every day they always remember you and it would be nice if they add kids mealKid-friendliness: They always have high chairs for your little baby“

“Ordered the reuben sandwich and a cheeseburger. The sandwich was incredible, the burger was ok but the French fries were just bad. No salt and somehow had grease pockets in them just waiting to explode in your mouth.Can't comment on atmosphere cause I just did a pick up order but the staff I encountered were super friendly and nice.“

“This restaurant is delicious and the food is homemade. They got the best chilli I've ever tasted In my life at a restaurant. My son loves their cheeseburgers and chicken fingers. They got breakfast all day long and it's amazing. I would highly recommend this restaurant. I recently moved back to the area and it's great to get this great of food again.Kid-friendliness: My son loves it“

“My husband and I had dinner at Robinson’s Smokey Bones last night. We were hungry and not disappointed with our meal. We had a friendly, upbeat waiter, Patrick, who gave us suggestions based on what we asked about menu items. My filet medallions, potatoes, and broccoli as a were delicious, and my husband thoroughly enjoyed his meal as well. The berry cheesecake we split for dessert was scrumptious! We’ll definitely be back, and we’ll ask for Patrick on our next visit! I recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a tasty meal in a great setting!!“

“Shout out to Mission BBQ! We don't get to eat over here often being an hour away but we love the food and love your mission.! The brisket and pork are amazing and I have never had potato salad like yours. I would love the recipe. Thank you for the great service in every way it comes.“

“I had the Salmon and my husband had the ribs. They were both delicious, as was the cornbread and corn. Plenty of food and definitely worth the price. We had take out, so we can't comment on the service but I would recommend this place.“

“First Time Trying Food At Twin Peaks in Robinson, PA. Server Was Very Nice and Went Over Menu With Us. My Husband Not Knowing How To Look Up Menu Using QR Reader. I Did Mine In 2 Seconds...Easy To Do. She Stopped Atleast 5 Times To Check On Us Throughout The Time There..Refilling Drinks and Making Sure Food Was Satisfactory. Very Clean Place. TVs Everywhere. Definitely Will Go Back. Awesome Place“

“WOW....food was delicious, great service, great prices, kid friendly, did I mention how delicious the food was? We had the specialty bacon cheeseburger(the bun is two cheese stuffed perogies.. (O M G), haluski, perogie platter, and all were amazing! We took home cheesecake and it was just as amazing! This place is a hidden gem that you do not want to miss out on! We will definitely be back! Hats off to the owners and employees!!“

“We stayed the night at the hotel before our morning flight and decided to get something to eat at Caroline’s Restaurant and it did notDisappoint. The coconut shrimp special was delicious and the service was great. Brianna was very attentive and friendly- wonderful waitress!! Will definitely be back!“

“I had the chicken and avocado salad and it was wonderful! Loved it. The creme brulee wasn't the best I've ever had, but the salad wowed me. Also the olive oil with the bread was really yummy. Our server was attentive and sweet. There was a tater tot (or something) under the table, next to my seat, when we were shown to it which was a bit of a let down but we'll definitely be back!“

“My girlfriend and I are recent regulars. It has quickly become our favorite brunch spot in Pittsburgh. The food is consistently amazing but what ultimately keeps us coming back are the people. They truly care about their customers and they quickly feel like a second family. I wish I could give this place more stars.“

“Good food, good wine selection, expansive bourbon list, spectacular service, and the prices are fair.I had the rib and brisket plate with fries on my first outing there, and the chipotle flank steak with asparagus on the second. Both were excellent but I'd recommend the flank steak. I enjoyed the Boen Pinot Noir, sold by the glass. A solid wine.“

“Food was very good. The only thing I can say as a slight negative was the service. However, this was not the servers fault. They were the only one being host, bartender, and server for the entire dining room. Saying all of that he did a fantastic job, but could definitely use help.Dietary restrictions: They have gluten sensitive options that I have ordered.“

“I love their risotto very much. They have a few different options. I have tried a few and my favorite is the mushroom one that I believe is seasonal.The portions are great, I always have enough for a late snack. They also have alot of other delicious meals. The burgers are wonderful.“

“Went for my girls' first birthday dinner. Linda R was our server. Linda went above and beyond to take quality care of my family. She gave us the feel like we were regulars at a small hometown diner.It was one of the best experiences I've had at a restaurant!“

“Hands down the best breakfast we have ever had. Seafood omelet and steel city breakfast delicious! Portions are large, had enough to bring some home. Husband had a banana split and said it it one of the best he’s eaten. Our waitress was so nice. Thank you for such an enjoyable experience! We will definitely return when in the area.“

“We chose to have my daughter’s birthday dinner at Cracker Barrel. She loves the tips,chicken,&shrimp. As do I. When our food was delivered, the two of us were very disappointed in the quantity that we were served of the trio. It was like they made one order and then split it between the two of us. We couldn’t even eat the steak tips. They were so over done. You couldn’t cut them with a knife let alone chew them. The restaurant was extremely busy. We did wait an hour for a table that was only supposed to be 20 minutes. This is the first time we have been disappointed in this Cracker Barrel.“

“Never had something from their menu I didn't like. The fried fish was top notch and we had amazing service.Kid-friendliness: Our server had our kid's meal on the table before the rest of our food came out, which is EXTREMELY wonderful to anyone who knows what dining out is like with a 2 year old.“

“Went here for my birthday because my boyfriend had been here before and loved it but I am disappointed with our experience today, the waiter seemed disassociated, we both ordered a steak as a entree and they looked like they were boiled in a pot of water and not cooked how we asked. We were supposed to both get potatoes for with our entrees and did not receive either one. And when we had addressed it with the manager she seemed unwilling to help. (One steak was supposed to be medium rare and the other is supposed to be rare)“

“Our first time at this location. We started with sangria and a long island ice tea. The sangria was excellent, so I had two. The long island ice tea was good not great. Then we ordered Cesar salads - they are large, not a side salad - but good. Then we had the half rack of ribs with a baked potato and the 12 oz ribeye with fire grilled corn on cob. The ribs were just warm. The baked potato was excellent. The ribeye was a perfect med rare - excellent, and the corn was good. Overall a good meal. However the entire place needs a good dusting - don't look up. We may try again in the future.“

“The most unique menu in the area and best experience I have ever had from Miami to NYC and in between. Even including international dining - I would choose Hyeholde first, any day. Personal, family, business events…the consistency is unbelievable! A hidden gem that has no equal.“

“Semi Regulars WeeklyNew Menus are VERY VERY HARD TO READ. in poor lighting conditions or poor eyesight.Black background with very very very small font of blue or white font.Bring a magnifying ? glass and flashlight.Atmosphere and Service and food was fantastic.“

“I recently discovered Dee Jay's and I'm thrilled to say it is one of my favorite new restaurants. It was so very good. Dee Jay's makes perfect BBQ. We tried the house made chips with french onion dip as an appetizer. It was good. For my meal, I had a combo plate featuring a BBQ chicken breast and baby back ribs. Both were delicious. The ribs melted off the bone. They were ?!! On the side I had the refreshing coleslaw and Dee Jay's signature twisted fries. The fries are really yummy and fun. Service and atmosphere were top notch. I will most definitely visit again and I highly recommend.“

“I’m super particular about my food, I want it cooked but I also don’t want it cooked like shoe leather. Ordered honey barbecue wings and they were truly the best wings I’ve had from any local restaurants. Cooked but soft skin, and the entire wings covered in sauce, not like some these place that drizzle sauce on theirs. Fast service and friendly environment. They also have the “BEST” apple pie that’s ever made by mankind.“

“Amazing food! Truly delicious Italian food, and some of the best I’ve had in a long time. It’s a hidden gem that goes unnoticed way too much. A perfect place to get upscale food and classic Italian-American food. I tried the Pick a Pasta with vodka sauce and penne and a mini peanut butter chocolate bombe for dessert.Both items were stellar. The pasta was perfectly cooked, not too soggy or too Al dense. The sauce had a nice balance of sweetness and creaminess, with that tomato bringing in a touch of acidity. Great portion for the price, too. Highly recommend it.The bombe was a lovely little dessert, and the perfect size for a person (you might be able to split if you’re too stuffed). Rich peanut butter and chocolate, tasty cake. Very good for the price. And very clearly made in house.They also gave me some complimentary bread, which was absolutely delicious. A humongous piece of bread! Topped with some seeds, and it goes perfectly with the olive oil they added in as well. So delicious.All in all, this place is amazing. Delicious pasta and desserts, and what a nice surprise with the bread! I would definitely order from here again.Vegetarian options: You can make pasta dishes that are vegetarian, salads, etc“

“Out of the many gastropubs that have been popping up, this has been my favorite! The menu is diverse in both food, beer, and cocktails. They have daily and monthly drink specials, the monthly beer special is a great way to try a certain brewery. The food is fantastic tasting and is a great value for the price. The atmosphere is fresh and fun. Great location with lots of parking.“

“Highly recommend the pulled pork sliders, creamy coleslaw and homemade chips! We ordered takeout for 15 people for an event and it was ready, well packed and made the set up easy. Everyone at the event asked where we got the great food. I recommend Sunny Jim’s place something on the container with their name/address that we could show guests.“

“Good food, quick service, friendly staff, very reasonable prices. Will definitely be back.Parking: Parking spots are angled along streetWheelchair accessibility: Building is old so doors aren’t very wide. Inside was plenty of room to manuever“

“Surprising great!We just stop overnight here at the hotel on the way from D.C. to Chicago, and didn’t expect a lot besides of any cities here, just to bite something after the ride.This restaurant is like a pearl in the middle of nowhere (sorry if someone feels offended?) and we are happy to have stopped here. Our experience was great! I wasn’t very hungry so I ordered two starters instead of a “full” dish - one too much! The portion are really good and much bigger than expected. My husband took the filet mignon only and it was enough for him.My tuna tartar as well as the pumpkin salat was fine presented on plate, had an intensive fresh aroma and tasted delicious even if I would never combine tuna & sweet papers, but it works good!The house wine was good enough and with 8€ a nice offer.All in one - we appreciated the meal, the service, the modern design and the wine and we clear recommend this place!Our warmest thanks to the cooking & service team?“

“This is our “go-to” place any time we don’t feel like cooking. The wings are always fire. We share them every time and usually get our “regular” things. Rarely do we stray from the menu- but tonight we tried the seasonal menu. Mark W was our server, and when I hesitated about ordering the Street Torta, he gave me his seal of approval. The sandwich was DELICIOUS and I would love to see it on your year-long menu. Also, not sure I would have tried without Mark recommending! So, very grateful for always speedy, reliable, tasty dinner. (the beer selection is obviously above average too!)“

“I had the chicken salad on a croissant. It was good but hard to eat as the croissant didn't tend to break apart as it was being eaten. The coleslaw was good but some herbs would make it great. The waitress was excellent. Very attentive and pleasant. I will say that the restaurant was quite busy. So next time I will try something different.“

“We have eaten here several times in the past and always enjoy stopping when we are in the area. Wonderful service...can't find my receipt but I think our server's name was Britney...very friendly! Our food was delicious and hubby tried the Hawaiin French toast...perfect since we were on our way home from Hawaii! I had yummy cheesy grits. Coffee is pretty tasty AND the pot is left on the table! Woo hoo!Dietary restrictions: Plenty of gluten free options.“

“I love the Waygu burgers here. I always build my own. The habanero jelly is great as are the bbq beans as a side. I do wish they’d bring back the Diablo sauce. Lou was a great server. Had a calming presence about them. Cold brew milk shake was awesome.“

“Best wings in the area and it's not even close.I grabbed some wings as recommended by a friend and they were amazing. Peach bourbon is like candy, little sweet for me but I could see people loving those. Honey jalapeño (honey mustard with cut up jalapeño) was great. The garlic parm was smothered in butter, garlic and palm. 10/10 on those for sure. My friends had barbecue and mango habinero. Both were great. We will continue to order from there over other places. That seems to be the general consensus by our 2nd shift work force that orders out as we were going elsewhere before.“

“Vic and his team catered our wedding recently and did a wonderful job! They were professional, accommodating, and most importantly, the food was GREAT! From cocktail hour, dinner, and helping cut the cake, Vic and his team helped make our day extra special.“

“I took 2 of my grandkids to the Cranberry location yesterday and had the BEST all around dining experience I have ever had there. Our server was JANET. What a wonderful, attentive and professional server. From the moment she approached our table till the time we left she gave us over the top service. It was so nice to enjoy a dinner and have someone with such a positive attitude wait on us. Please make sure that Janet is given recognition for this 5 STAR review“

“They are short staffed, so a wait is possible. Food is great. Staff did great considering. Love the atmosphereParking: Grocery, strip mall lot, alway available parkingKid-friendliness: bar and restaurant separateWheelchair accessibility: the bar is not wheelchair accessible“

“Had the capone. Great sandwich, huge. Good value especially for airport food. Service was extremely efficient and friendly. Fries were good too. Sandwich has coleslaw fresh vinegar based and fries on it. Get a draft yuengling one of the nation's oldest breweries for good reason. No better beer.“

“We tried JW Hall's last evening a party of seven of us. this was our first time there and certainly will not be our last. we all had different meals and not one complaint. service was excellent, food was perfectly seasoned and cooked and hot when it came out. I highly recommend if you're in the area absolutely go there.“

“I attended the emo night event this passed Saturday with my wife and some friends. the atmosphere was awesome and the staff did a great job considering how busy they were. the music was great and everyone had a good time. I'd highly recommend Jergels to anyone looking for a cool spot to hang out!“

“It was a great experience. At 1st I went to the bar a cross called Penn Brewery but they took forever to serve me so I walked over. The bar tender “Tee” was quick and welcoming. I had a great time, food came out quick just like the drinks. Made my flight wait alot easier.“

“Great fish dinners! This is a nice little local place. Great affordable food, delivery/carryout only.We always make sure to stop by during Lent to get our fish. Make sure you hit the ATM first, the Sauce Pot is cash only but worth the extra effort.Parking: 3 free spots in front of the restaurant and a terrible parking lot for a few cars on the side.“

“The foods truly excellent, I strongly recommend coconut shrimps as starter. The rib eye steak cooked rare also fantastic, just right with juicy. The bread didn’t come when we finished order, instead it come with our entrees. The dishes that we finished, they just let the plates keep sitting on our table.“

“Our family recently held a bereavement luncheon at Harold’s Inn. We ordered the Bereavement Buffet. Our family and guests were extremely pleased with the quality and the taste of the food, especially the Famous Mountain Style Chicken and the Famous Taters. So good! Some of our guests were vegan/vegetarian and Susie accommodated their special food requests. Susie’s team was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. The prices were very reasonable. We highly recommend Harold’s Inn for any event.“

“Our family of four stopped in to this very inconspicuous restaurant. We were pleasantly surprised at the amazing service we received. The food was delicious and the prices were very fair. If you're thinking of trying this spot, do it! Everything we had was fantastic.“

“Famous local chain. They top a lot of their sandwiches with fries. I got the Italian crostini and it very good. I liked the vinegar based cole slaw even better. Very rare to find that at restaurants. Great friendly efficient service. Full bar available.“

“Lot of talk about how great the burgers are here. They were good, but I certainly wasn't blown away. Admittedly, I'm a bit of a snob when it comes to good burgers. The pattie itself was cooked past medium and honestly lacked seasoning. The bun was mediocre. The toppings where fresh and the fries are good. I've yet to try other items on the menu.Parking is a bit tricky if it's busy. Tight area up there around the restaurant.There are two entrances. One for the bar which is around front. And a back entrance for the restaurant.The staff was great, and very friendly.Overall it's worth a visit. But if you're a burger snob you will be under whelmed.“
