Growing up in the area, Park Valley Lounge was a place that I always drove by, but never stopped. I…read morelive closer to here now, and I have been coming more frequently over the past two years. It is a great local bar that has a solid flow of regulars located in South Park. There is ample amount of parking, as the old beer distributor building that was next door was recently demolished, and thus provides a lot more parking spaces for this business. I have never once had to wait for a table to dine here upon arrival. It does get busy at times, but even then I am always able to find a space either at a table or at the bar. They have various food and drink specials each day, but we almost always come on a Monday for the Wing Night. Wings are $1.30 each, and you can order them in whatever type of quantity you wish. They are not the largest wings I have had at a Wing Night, but they are not breaded and made-to-order. So, they take a little longer than other food items. However, they always come out hot and fresh. Some of our go-to sauces include the Sweet Teriyaki, the Garlic Parmesan, Honey BBQ, and Buffalo. Typically, we always get an appetizer as well. Have tried several of them over time, but we have been getting the Trio Platter lately. This visit, we went with the Zucchini Planks, Provolone Sticks, and Mini Tacos. It comes with three sauces, so we got Ranch, Santa Fe Ranch, and Marinara. The Zucchini Planks are smaller compared to most restaurants, but not bad. I like that the platter not only comes with the choice of the appetizers, but also the sauces. Another favorite of mine is the Grilled Cheese. This particular time, the cheese was not very melted and I was not asked if I wanted tomato or any additional toppings when I ordered. I usually am asked, and I usually enjoy this item. This might have been a one-off, but this particular time it was sub-par. The prices here are fair, for the most part. Depending on what you get, the value may not be there. Additionally, they charge extra for Ranch if ordering it with the wings. When we first started coming here, there was a bartender who always worked Mondays, and we loved her. She was friendly, always remembered us when we came in, and really took care of everyone. I do not believe she is with the bar anymore, and the staff seems to rotate on Mondays now. We have not had the same level of service with any of the new Monday staff. Not that it is necessarily terrible, but makes us miss the bartender who took such good care of us from prior visits. I would recommend stopping at Park Valley for a bite to eat or to hang out. The crowd is never too large, and everyone is friendly. Plus, it is a chance to support a locally owned and operated business.

We chose the All Star Sports Bar & Grill for dinner last week and were pleasantly surprised. We've…read morepassed this restaurant up several times, but when our go-to place had a long wait, we decided to give it a shot. The dining room was only partially full and the bar had a few patrons. We sat in a booth so we could watch preseason football. We really enjoyed this convenience! The food we ordered was delicious. We ordered hot boneless wings with bleu cheese for an appetizer. They were definitely spicy, but not so much so that you were sweating while eating them. We had to ask for an extra cup of bleu cheese which came out quickly. I had a chicken cesar wrap and it was stuffed with chicken. I could only eat half of the plate and took the other half home for lunch. My boyfriend had a spicy burger which he added a chipotle aioli to. He also enjoyed his plate. Our server and her trainee were both friendly and prompt. Between the food, service, and fair prices, we will be back, I'm sure.

The joys of traveling with an 18-year-old. After several days of working long hours and running on…read morevery little sleep, there were only a few things on my young travel companion's mind: sports, food, sleep, and probably girls--in no particular order! With an 8:50 PM flight out of Pittsburgh and not much time to spare, we decided to grab dinner on the way to the airport. I let my travel companion pick the restaurant, and since he's a lot like his father, he made a solid choice. All Star Sports Bar & Grill was conveniently located and an easy stop before heading to the airport. Thankfully, the restaurant wasn't busy when we arrived because we still had the rental car return, TSA and a flight ahead of us. We opted for the dining area rather than the bar, which gave me a chance to take in all the sports memorabilia. As a lifelong sports fan, I really enjoyed the atmosphere. Being in Pittsburgh, the walls were covered with Steelers and Penguins history, along with plenty of jerseys from players I grew up watching. Our server, Nicole, was excellent from start to finish. Friendly, attentive, and quick with recommendations. Before my coworker could even look at the menu, I spotted the Soft Pretzel Sticks and ordered them as an appetizer. Good decision. Warm, salty, and paired perfectly with the cheese sauce. Definitely order these When I asked Nicole for recommendations, she immediately suggested the Reuben and the wings. Had I not eaten a Reuben the day before, that's probably what I would have ordered. As for the wings, I'll admit it--I am a Wing Snob. If they're not homemade or from Western New York, I'm usually passing. That's not a knock on their wings; it's just a very high standard that comes from growing up around some of the best wings in the country. Wanting to try something local, I ordered the Pittsburger. For me, it was just okay. Not bad by any means, and I cleaned my plate, but it wasn't a sandwich I'd order again. Looking back, the Reuben probably would have been the better choice. The fries were also average. I requested them crispy and without seasoning, but they didn't really stand out. Meanwhile, my travel companion ordered boneless wings. What can I say? He's 18. I even tried explaining the superiority of blue cheese over ranch, but that lesson appears to have fallen on deaf ears. Overall, I'm giving All Star Sports Bar & Grill 3 stars. That rating has more to do with my particular food choices and the rushed nature of our visit than the restaurant itself. The sports atmosphere was excellent, the service from Nicole was outstanding, and there were several menu items I'd like to come back and try. If I'm back in the area with more time and a bigger appetite, I'd definitely give this place another shot.

The zucchini planks were the star of the show with the spinach artichoke dip the runner up. The Marinara sauce on the crispy zucchini hit the spot. The artichoke dip with a hearty portion with plenty of crispy pitas. The crispiness of the pita made eating the dip that much more enjoyable. The chicken quesadillas were loaded with chicken but the tortilla was soft. Had it been crisp, it very well could have been the star of the show. Pens won in dominating fashion and the Bucos handled their business also. The saloon is a laid back sports bar to kick back with friends or family. Thanks for a rare opportunity to enjoy a beer and meal with my sister and dad! I recommend the Saloon to anyone looking for a good time and a beer while taking in a game or two.
