While working in Allentown, PA this week, I decided to check out this spot located just a few miles…read morefrom our hotel. I originally found it last year on TikTok and had been meaning to visit after hearing great things--and it definitely lived up to the hype. First off, the place is massive. It features an impressive number of TVs, plenty of bar seating, tables, booths, and even a spacious outdoor patio. The atmosphere is modern and inviting, making it an ideal spot to catch a game or grab dinner with friends. We visited on a Tuesday night, and even though it was fairly busy, we were seated within seconds. Our server came by almost immediately to take our drink order, and I wish I had caught her name--she was absolutely fantastic. Friendly, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the menu. I ordered the 1760 Rita frozen margarita along with a water, and for my meal, I went with the Fried Chicken Buffalo Wheat Wrap. I swapped out the blue cheese crumbles for cheddar and added a side of fries and a small cup of hot honey sauce. The wrap and sauce were fresh and absolutely delicious. The only downside was that the fries were slightly cold, which is the only reason for the 4-star rating. Other than that, everything--from the food to the service to the overall vibe--was excellent. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in town for work to try more from the menu.

We also enjoyed delicious cocktails that paired perfectly with our meal. For our main course, we shared the paella, which was flavorful, well seasoned, and generously portioned.

It's the kind of place that's perfect for catching up with friends over great food and drinks, and I'd happily return.

This place is a joke! Asked what type of ground beef they use (asked if it was Angus beef). Every…read moresingle person there said they have NO idea what type of beef they use (and never heard of Angus), looked at me like I was crazy for asking that question, then said their beef was "better" than Angus. This place will NEVER hold a candle to places like In-N-Out. It was 6:30pm and no one was in the place. it smelled odd and I swear the people behind the counter and in the kitchen-line were giving me odd looks. They never smiled once. Thankfully, I walked out without ordering. I'd rather drive 100s of miles for a true 'In-N-Out' style burger (a place that 'lists' what they serve) than to drive 10 minutes to a horrible place like this.

While working in Allentown, PA this week, a local coworker recommended this spot, and I'm so glad…read morewe checked it out. We visited on a Wednesday evening and were seated immediately, as there was only one other table occupied when we arrived. The restaurant offers plenty of seating both indoors and out on the patio. Since it was hot and raining, we chose to dine inside. The interior is beautifully designed with a cozy, authentic Italian feel that adds to the overall dining experience. Our server was friendly and welcoming, greeting us right at the door and returning quickly to take our drink orders. The menu is extensive--there are tons of options to choose from, which made it tough to decide. I ended up ordering the Spicy Fried Chicken Jalapeño Sandwich with a side of fries. I enjoy spicy food, and this sandwich absolutely delivered. The jalapeño sauce was rich, flavorful, and one of the best I've ever had. The bread tasted freshly baked--possibly even house-made--and really elevated the entire sandwich. The fries were standard, but they came out hot, crisp, and well-seasoned. Overall, this was a great dining experience. The food, service, and atmosphere were all on point. I'll definitely be saving this spot for future visits and look forward to exploring more items from their massive menu.

They have crispy chicken sandwich here, too, but I got the ground chicken burger, and it was excellent! My strawberry milkshake was excellent, it was topped with whipped cream! I think they use Hagen Dazs ice cream! I like sweet potato waffle fries - good change! They have some really great sauces, like truffle mayo, chipotle mayo, and honey mustard, which is their Smash sauce. Very clean place with high air conditioning. They were very busy with take out order. I'd come back!

If you haven't been to a Roadhouse before, be prepared for peanut shells on the floors. Free bags of peanuts are hanging by the hosts booth- you help yourself and start cracking, shucking, tossing the peanuts on the floor and eat away! Staff was super friendly, bathrooms were ok (a busy place though so the bathrooms really could use some attention) and music playing was great. Now food- we had 7 people and 5 ordered the filet, one ordered the steak kabobs over rice and then I had the prime rib. The steak kabobs along with one of the filets were asked to be cook very well done, and needed to be returned for more cooking- (to be honest I only saw the kabob and it was really red still). The manager came over with the returned food and our waiter and apologized wholeheartedly- not necessary, but really nice to take the time to do. My prime rib was excellent, the only thing I wish they would change is their au ju sauce, it didn't taste like the real drippings from a cooked prime rib but some sort of jar type with added smoke flavoring- not great...at all. No alcoholic beverage were ordered, a couple people had a tea or pop. Overall great dinner. Split the bill three ways with each group paying $68 something each- plus we left a $50 tip- so $250 ish total (so about $40 each). Give this place a try, not bad!

Took my German colleagues for some American steaks. Europeans always marvel the CP value (size and…read morequality) of American beef. It was a win and everyone had a great meal. We were 7 so I put our names in the waitlist (no reservation) and 5 of our party arrived early. Unfortunately they do not consider you until the whole party arrives. The 7th thought we would've seated without her so she didn't show up until half an hour later. Once we told the hostess our party was complete, we waited another ~15 to get a table. You can imagine those who arrived early are getting impatient. Good thing is that our server put everyone at ease and host-crisis averted! Almost everyone ordered steak and everyone was super happy with the quality of meat. Of course the Texas size overwhelmed us and seeing so much leftover was sad (all staying in hotels and no way to take doggie bags). One highlight of the meal of the cactus blossom- none of us have had it. It was fun.

My wife ordered a margarita which was delicious and balanced. We also ordered the Mac and cheese bites app which was great.

Their wings are very good. I love their suicidal wing sauce going in; mot so much going out. It has so much flavor without being too hot. Their pizza prices are a little high, IMO. But, they do have decent beer prices. ~$8 for a half (small) pitcher; more than enough for one person. Their Meatball sub is also very good. Service is decent, but you just go up and order; no wait staff. Can't say I ever had bad service.
