    Fish Sandwich and Fries
    Linda S.

    I had heard that they had a huge fish sandwich here, one that that was large enough to share. Well, it's true! It's one of the largest portions we've had locally. The fish was nice and flaky, moist and tasty. Not fishy at all. I think they use cod. The breading could have been better. It was a bit soggy. But overall, a perfectly acceptable fish sandwich. The fries were exceptional though. Seasoned and fried perfectly crisp on the outside yet creamy on the inside. The Lobster Rolls were really good. Stuffed full of lobster on a toasted roll. These put that Cousins Lobster Truck to shame. Twice as much lobster in the roll and here you get two instead of one, and the price is $4 less! No comparison! Our waitress was super cheerful and nice. She was quick and efficient. The dining room was well lit and clean. We were there for lunch hour, but they weren't super busy. If word gets out about these lobster rolls, though, look out! That may change! This is an excellent option for lunch or dinner. My only criticism is that the water they serve is horrible. Even with a slice of lemon in it, I couldn't drink it. Your best option would be to order a beer. Because even mixed with the soda fountain, the taste of the water came through. Actually, anything with ice might be affected. If they would invest in a filter system, it would improve the water quality immensely. Maybe it's just Ligonier's water? I don't know, but it tasted like dishwater.

    Beautiful day, and a lovely place to dine.

    This restaurant has plenty of parking and a beautiful outdoor dining area. The interior looked okay, but we only passed through it, so I didn't see much of it. The food was very delicious, and the prices were good. Our orders were prepared quickly, and the portions were generous. The servers were both very attentive and friendly. They answered all of our questions (someone in our party had a LOT of questions) and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. This location is near Fort Ligonier and also a state park/forest. It's not too far from Idlewild, either. So we will likely return to this establishment again after we finish visiting one of those places!

    Don't pass on the wings. They are $1 each on Wednesday.

    Was staying at a vacation rental near by. Stopped for lunch to have their one dollar wing special on Wednesday. Delicious meaty wings. I highly recommend this place. Lots of good looking choices on the menu.

    Forks Inn has been on my to try list for a while. Driving past this on multiple occasions but never having a chance to stop in, until recently. I have been on a quest to try new places around me and have been looking them up on Yelp. Yelp affords me the opportunity to not only view reviews, but pictures of the food and interior. Mostly the food. As describes in the name, Forks Inn is located at a fork in the road. I would like to state at this point that they really missed the opportunity to have an actual fork in the road out in front of this place. Just saying, maybe look into it. When showing up don't let the place fool you that parking is sparse. Majority of the parking is located behind the business. This place offers a patio/deck area for outdoor seating in the warmer weather. During the cooler months the do enclose it which allows for more tables to be served. The outdoor patio/deck looks like just about any other that you can come across. It is nice, and I believe they do have events on it throughout the year. The interior of this place looks like a lodge with all the natural wood, high tables, and bar. Service here was quick, like really quick. I sat down and an employee was there to see if I wanted to place a drink order. That was placed and I looked over the menu. When the server returned I was ready to place my order. For an appetizer I ordered the Fried Green Beans. This comes with a side or Ranch Dressing, naturally. The green beans were amazing. The breading was reminiscing of the breading you find on really good chicken strips. That was the crunch for this, but I swear that the green beans encased were the freshest green beans I have had in a while. Definitely a good way to start off the meal. For my main course I went with the Bubba Burger. All burgers are a half pound. This one is topped bacon, cheddar, and barbecue sauce. It is a big burger. The meat to bun ratio was spot on and I had to cut it in half to tackle it. I was happy that the server had the intuition to bring extra napkins. There was nothing clean or easy about eating this burger. It was a drippy mess. But the flavor combinations were there and had med devouring that thing in no time. Do I really need to speak to the side for this burger? No. But will I? YES! Fresh cut fries. Of course I am going to talk about fresh cut fries. I love fresh cut fries. Fresh cut fries...I just felt like I needed to say that one more time. Well, I do love me a good potato anyway it can be made and I was happy to see it in the fresh fry variety here. It kind of missed the spot a little. I felt as if they left them in the fryer a little too long. Some of the fries were over fried. Kind of a let down since, and I am being honest here, I was really looking forward to the fries. But as an overall experience it was great. I will definitely come back and hope for a better batch of fries.

    Garlic parm wings
    Amber V.

    3.5 stars! Great service and very cute restaurant. Wings were $1 a wing on Wednesday wing night. I think the wings are lightly battered and they are good sized. Not a lot of sauces to choose from but had the standards. Wings were good, cooked well. Loved the home made horseradish sauce, fried green beans were solid. Pretzels a little well done and not a huge fan of beer cheese but it was fine. The loser of the meal for our table were the fries. Our party of 4 nobody liked them, thick and seasoned just none of us were a fan.

    The food the service the atmosphere is absolutely spot on ! I'd give it more then five stars if I could! We just recently moved to the area and have ate here several times now and have got to know all the wait staff really well they treat you like family. Sarah the cook is phenomenal! All the food comes out piping hot and fresh. The selection is fabulous. Portions are very generous. The steak melts in your mouth. And there are specials every day. My husband said their fried chicken special is the best he's ever had and wants it put permanently on the menu lol he couldn't stop raving about it. Atmosphere is very family friendly lots of seating. Bands play outside in the summer in the outdoor deck / bar. Gets extremely busy so we've heard. The pizza is great and so are the wings I love their crust it's light golden and the perogie pizza is one of my favs. And desserts well you just have to make room it's all good! All in all you couldn't ask for a better place to eat and prices are very reasonable. The restaurant is super clean the girls work hard to keep it that way! Plenty of parking but in the summer I recommend getting there early..

    Such a diamond in Ligonier! I called to make reservations in the "Speak Easy" area in the bar. When…read morewe arrived, our server Ronale greeted us a guided us to a cozy table in the bar area but, not too close. You can sense the "old" feel to this restaurant. Such charm and history. Along with the menu, we received a document which briefly details the restaurant's history. After taking our drinks order, server Ronale explained menu items of significance such as their famous onion rings, homemade salad dressing and hand cut steaks. Our server kept our dinner at a comfortable pace and was aware each time we needed something. Our onion ring appetizer was superb. The French onion soup was tasty. The broth was delicious. Our steaks were expertly prepared to our liking. At the conclusion of dinner we decided to have a night cap. A dirty martini and an espresso martini sealed the deal for us. We highly recommend this restaurant. Can't wait to return for another dinner.

    Such a historic spot with tons of charm. The atmosphere really makes you feel like you're somewhere…read morespecial, and the waitstaff was super friendly and welcoming. That said, the prices were kind of wild for what you get. The filet was good and cooked well, but the sides were lacking. The lobster thermador was $72 and all you got was tail meat, which felt pretty disappointing. The side salad was tiny and the house dressing was cloyingly sweet. The homemade bread was delicious and honestly one of the best parts of the meal. Dessert cakes were okay, nothing amazing. Overall, great ambiance and service, but the food didn't quite match the price.
