Great food for a very reasonable price. Great place to stop on the way to Kennywood. Long line but…read moreFast service. It's an open space even with it being on the side of route 51. No bathroom but that is a wise choice so they can dedicate all the personal and time to food services. Only thing I'd suggest is to dedicate the door to being the pickup line and use one of the side windows as the ordering line. So people can see where the ordering line is better. But I love the food and will be back soon. Thank You for keeping it simple.

Nicely pressed bread, tasty pulled pork, pickles, mustard, etc. The sides were good as well - I enjoyed both the potato salad and the spicy slaw. Unfortunately, the slaw had a slightly grainy texture. Overall nice spot for a quick bite. Service was kind and fast. Will stop in again next time I'm in the area.

Split review on the wings, I didn't like the tough cook on them but others did. The quesadilla had brisket and a wonderful overall taste. Service was swamped but kind, it's a great casual friends and family joint to get something you know you'll like.

In my mind and memories, this place is fantastic. In reality, ... I'll explain…read more I'm not regularly in this part of the city anymore. I'd rather drive out of state than have to cross a bridge and tunnel to get somewhere so I only stopped twice when at a nearby meeting. Decades back, my best friend lived right up the street. This was practically an extension of their own house. They were there often. Often is an understatement. I'd get off from work and knew where I could find friends. Here. I'd often stop and pick up something on my way home to the South Side Slopes. I recognize that its been a long, long time since I lived in the Southern Side of the city. I haven't been here regularly in years. I still enjoy stoping by. The last few times, the service was - I hate to say this- not good. I really do hate to say that. The reason people loved this place was because Louie, Toni, & their staff were friendly and made it an experience. Long gone are staff that made anyone in Pgh feel welcome. The last 2 stops in, I felt like an inconvenience. My orders weren't correct each time. One was a to go order. I specifically asked for things to be done a certain way because I was ordering for my husband & kids. I chalked it up to the time of day & blamed myself. I did not look it over since I was trying to beat traffic... this is a classic place. It has to be me. Not them. I had an hour break and decided to stop in. Again, staff ignored me when I ordered. It took up that entire time to get served. It was awkward. My meal was lackluster, at best. My mind wants to believe in this place and that their stuffed bananas, zucchini and chicken sandwiches will never change- but I think they have. At this point, I don't see myself going anytime soon intentionally. If a friend were to ask us to join them, I would.

Rigatoni, hot sausage, wedding soup, chicken, wonderful salad with an olive in practically every bite. I tried all of it. Can't say enough about this place. They really do a great job and serve homemade Italian food that is delicious.

What a fun option to add some variety to the standard food court fare…read more I am a sucker for all things french fries and they have a lot of fun options. I was drawn to the potato spiral which is usually a food you can only get at summer festivals or amusement parks. Their version didn't disappoint. It was just the right amount of crisp and had a great flavor. They make everything fresh to order, so you have a little bit of a wait, but it is worth it. On another visit, I got a loaded tots and they were tasty and filling. The staff is helpful and friendly and the place seems clean and well kept. Overall, a great option when looking for something other than Chinese or pizza.

Mediocre food and worse service. We were there a good 10 minutes before being waited on. I would…read moresay it was another 45 minutes for the food to come out and it was just a sandwich and fries. Other people at our table waited longer. Whoever reviewed the poutine fries as the best they ever had, clearly never had them elsewhere. The gravy was awful, there was melted cheese, not curds, and the fries aren't homemade. They were actually the worst I've ever had. The sandwich was a good size but just ok, nothing special. It took forever to get drinks refilled. I asked 25 minutes before we left and never got another. Once we finished eating our waitress didn't come back to the table. We had to ask others for drinks and the check. We originally went to play bingo. It was fun but didn't start on time and went all the way to 10pm.

I especially enjoyed the turkey burger, and the Margherita pizza is essentially a delicious cheese pizza for those who prefer something simple. A nice touch is that the sweet potato fries can be ordered either plain or with cinnamon and sugar, giving you a fun option depending on your mood. There is convenient parking right out front, and they're open late until 11 PM or midnight which makes it a great choice for a casual dinner or late-night bite. Overall, a solid experience and a place I'd happily visit again.

No interest in midday drinking, we decided to pop around back into the little casual cafe (the bar area is out front). The tiny space has a handful of booths, a table, and 4 bar stools. It's not much to look at - no decorations, low ceiling tiles, and just super plain. But the place appeared clean, and the staff is so nice and attentive. I'd give them 4 stars for that! The food is a bit better than standard bar food. I ordered a fried chicken salad. The iceberg lettuce (ugh) was accompanied by a handful of cucumber slices, banana pepper rings, red onion, some cheese, and what I think was boneless, sliced chicken fingers. I opted against having fries in my salad. I also picked off the handful of cherry tomatoes. The dressing - balsamic vinaigrette- was good. My husband enjoyed his club sandwich on rye with American cheese. Apologies - forgot to take food pics!
