It doesn't necessarily feel dated, just somehow nostalgic with the wood and the booths. When you enter, they take you to your table (this is a change from back in the day when you ordered right when you walk in). The menu has a variety of things from fried goodies to tasty steaks. You can also order just the salad bar. The salad bar has three to four soup options, lettuce and toppings, prepared salads (such as broccoli salad and pasta salad. They also have a nacho bar, mac and cheese, bread and an awesome dessert bar (that includes self serve soft serve ice cream). Food is always tasty, service always great. Definitely worth a visit.

Our 4 go tos are- Butter chicken-- great dish only thing is I'm assuming they use food color as there's always a red stain on my fingers after eating & washing-- this part is a bit aggravating. But You know we use our fingers to eat. Def recommended tho.... Andhra chicken Dry- we order spicy 6-7 excellentttttt!!!!!! Very spicy at it is back home in south India for us. A true testament of Andhra/tamizh cuisine. Mostly dry with a lot of cooked onions on top ((yum))for homemade chapatis, parothas etc. Def recommended.. Malai Kofta-- thick creamy w a hint of sweetness, only 3 koftas tho sadly bcz it's soooo good. Something once in a while. Def recommended. Saag/palak paneer-- soooo good! Creamy so ofc it's a fatty treat but it's really good- def recommended. Overall we love this restaurant. It's our go to. Will try more !

The food was great, but, a warning to any nut allergy folks! We asked if they used any nuts in the…read morechicken curry and explained my daughter's allergy, and they said "no". Well, either something else in the food acts like a "nut" or they just don't actually know what's in their ingredients. Good thing UPMC East is just up the road, as I had to rush my daughter to the ER. I can't blame the restaurant fully, as I should have done a little more in-depth research on Indian cuisine, and there was definitely a communication problem! I'm not a negative person, so now that I've said the above warning, I will say the food was delicious. I asked for a spicier version of chicken curry, you know, where your lips burn, but in a good way, and you just cant wait for the next bite! Definitely quality ingredients (and I'm betting they use cashew flour as a thickening agent)! The restaraunt is very clean. I would give the food a 4 out of 5. My daughter liked her rice, and honestly, had it not been for the required Emergency Room visit, she would have gave the place a 3!

It's hard to get authentic Italian food anymore , and I'm telling you that you will find it here ! We will be back.

My mom the matriarch, myself and my very Irish guy who loves Italian food too stopped at Shrodi's for an early dinner. Yes, I've been seeing the many posts and comments on social media. Yes, I know the very long family history and know the infamous shrodi from his restaurant back in the good ol' days. So that is my prelude to this dining experience today. We walked in and were greeted by Natalie who also lucky for us was our fabulous server. Italian. Authentic. Tradition History What is better than a quaint stone restaurant with a Basil garden thriving as you walk up? Well, a family tradition and staff who all welcome you as family .. yes, we know the family history of Shrodi. The menu was plentiful and the selections took much time to choose and with the outstanding help of Natalie we made our picks! What is cool is my mom is not a big eater anymore and chose off the senior menu which is very clever to have available and still had enough leftovers for lunch today. The stuffed banana peppers with Sunday sauce were amazing. Three served generously and one went home! Veal piccata was delish with a nice zest of lemon. Large portions! House salad with their house dressing to add according to our taste. Many kalamata Olives. Cherry tomatoes Fresh mushrooms. And freshest mixed greens Our Irishman picked his favorite penne with vodka sauce. It was the best he's ever had. And he's super picky. I have to agree! The added prosciutti and seasonings were truly mouth watering. The chef is masterful in the kitchen and believe me, every mouth watering taste was worth the wait! Natalie was fabulous and attentive to us from hello to see you again soon goodbye. Everyone waved goodbye as we left. Oh I forgot to mention they are making a bocce court out back to really add to its authentic Italian tradition and flair. It's a little bit of Heaven tucked away in Penn Hills! Do not pass it up!

So, let's dive in!…read more The ambiance is nice and they host different events throughout the month, so they offer different opportunities to get out of the house to enjoy yourself. The event space accommodated about 12 tables (8 seats per table), and they had a full house for the event. There is also a seperate bar and some booth seating in that space. We attended their Friday Jazz session and the music was amazing. The music was flowing nonstop with a brief 20-minute intermission. We enjoyed their featured artist. They also offered a limited menu during the event, so we decided to give it a try. They are a soul food-based restaurant, so they have many southern and seafood options. I got lamb chops with mac and cheese and yams. My partner got crab cakes and Caesar salad. My partner said the caesar salad had red onions in it; however, it was one of the best he ever had. The dressing was homemade and the onions brought out the taste. His crab cakes were shaped like a patty, versus a jumbo lump crab cake, but with decent taste. He said the remoulade sauce kinda overpowered the crab, but was enjoyable. My lamb chops were tender and served medium to mid-well. The sauce on top was Carolina BBQ, which was ok, I would have just preferred the meat to be seasoned vs. sauce. The baked mac & cheese was delicious. It was very cheesy and you can taste the different cheeses. My yams were ok, but I prefer them to be a tad sweet for more of a candied flavor. The cornbread muffin was good soft and flakey, but not like the southern cornbread I'm used to. Perhaps if they had some honey butter or cinnamon butter to top it, it would complement the muffin very well. Overall, my experience was decent. They have a nice extensive menu and I would like to return to try some new items. They constantly have events like jazz, taco Tuesday, karaoke, brunch, etc, so I will definitely return.

Nothing we ate wasn't five stars, everything came out hot and tasted fresh. Food prices are steep but drink prices are amazing, so the balance works out perfectly. Can't give five stars just yet. The service was attentive and friendly, but, generally, really slow, the food took about 30 minutes but dessert took over an hour. The menu is robust but includes no appetizer/appetizer priced options so you do risk getting very hungry waiting for made to order. Bottom line the food tastes exquisite and the experience has all the feel of a new place with new staff (miscommunication, issue with our check etc.). All that being said, I think these are definitely issues that can improve with time to get this place to five stars and the food is definitely good enough to wait for!

WARNING: MAJOR HEALTH HAZARD I have been to Saga in…read moreMonroeville several times in the past and never had an issue, but my recent experience was absolutely horrific. The quality has completely plummeted. Spoiled Food & Illness: The food tasted completely rancid. I had to throw it away, and I ended up getting physically ill from eating it. It was clearly spoiled. Serving Expired Dairy to Toddlers: They served my grandbaby white milk that tasted completely spoiled and bad. When we initially asked to send it back, the staff actually refused. I had to demand to see a manager just to get them to take spoiled milk away from a child. Atrecious Customer Service: When the chef threw noodles on the grill, I immediately asked if I could have rice instead. I was told, "I can't do that, it's already on the grill." Zero flexibility, zero effort to accommodate a simple request. Forced Gratuity for Terrible Service: To top it all off, the manager insisted on charging me a $20 gratuity for this nightmare. I have absolutely no problem paying for good food and good service, but forcing a tip for horrific food that literally makes people sick and combative service is shameful. With the Monroeville Mall struggling, it feels like this management team has completely given up because they know their days might be numbered. Save your money, protect your health, and do not eat here. They do not care anymore.
