    Middle of the Road
    Rob K.

    My family and I went to Lu Lou's on a Saturday morning. We arrived around 9:45 and were promptly seated. The restaurant is quaint and attached to Janoskis Farm, with a country feel. Restaurant is very clean. I had the middle of the road as pictured. My breakfast was excellent. My youngest son had chocolate chip pancakes which were very light and tasty, my wife and oldest son enjoyed their meals. Price point is fair, reduction in star is from time to serve. It was over 20 minutes for us to receive our meals and it wasn't very busy. I would definitely return.

    This place offered some delicious comfort foods after a long day of hiking at Raccoon Creek! Our server - Kenidi - was polite but failed to make us aware of the specials. I inquired about an item that was on someone's table but not on the menu and was informed that it was today's special. I ordered it, so definitely would have been nice to know upon being seated. The smoked wings were juicy, tender and full of flavor. The hot roast turkey sandwich was everything I hoped it would be! I wish my plate had been served with more mashed potatoes, but the turkey and gravy were very well prepared. I rarely order soda with dinner, but this time I ordered Cherry Pepsi and it paired well with my meal. Thought about having ice cream for dessert, but they were closing up the containers and turning off the case lights at 535pm. Also didn't ask if we were interested in ordering, even though we were both looking at the flavors. The decor is unique. Just focus on how delicious the food is and you'll walk away smiling!

    This place is just ok. We were in the area and just so happened to check Yelp and see it was nearby. We went on a Sunday afternoon around 2. We were seated quickly, as the restaurant wasn't very busy. Seems like a place that the locals probably love. The service was lackluster. It felt very rushed. The food came out quickly which was good. I saw another review state that this place was clean. Definitely not, at least by my standards. The dining area where the ice cream station is... the table we sat at had thick cobwebs above it. The fake plants also have cobwebs hanging from them. The wall and window next to our table had dirty child handprints smeared all over. The bathroom was relatively clean, thankfully. The food was just ok. I got a Reuben and my husband got the Joe Joe sandwich. The Joe Joe reminded me a little of a Primanti's sandwich. The Reuben was packed with meat and came out steaming hot, but I was disappointed as there was no thousand island dressing on the sandwich (how can you call it a Reuben without the dressing?). The fries were alright. I was considering trying a scoop of ice cream, but our waitress brought us the check without even asking if we wanted anything else or if we even liked the food we ordered. Overall not impressed, but we would maybe go back if we were in the area and really hungry.

    What looks like a hole in the wall dinner is actually of the best places to eat in the area. It's located directly across from Janoski's farm. I didn't expect much when I walked in. But looking at everyone's dish - wow it was a shocker! Everything looked FRESH, clean, and the portions are VERY generous! I got the Buffalo chicken wrap and it was one of the best I ever had. Chicken was cooked to perfection, lettuce crunchy and fresh (the way I like it). My mom got the Rueben and said it's the best she ever had (if you knew her, you would know what a high compliment that is). We didn't order a salad but the tables around us did and they looked delicious so we want to come back to try that. There is seating outdoor on the porch and indoor (mostly indoor). We went for lunch on a Monday afternoon so it wasn't busy. And thank god because there was only one waitress and she was busting her butt to take care of everyone and she excelled at it. Highly recommend!

    Wow, I'm blown away but this road-side diner Incredible service, diner ambiance and locals. Good is plentiful and abundant The menu is diverse with home cooked diner food and seasonal specials. Beers available. Ice cream and home made cakes for desert. To go soups and catering available. Real potato patch French fries. Can't wait to get the mushroom soup to go!

    Love this place! First time I have ever had a Rueben cooked perfectly! The service was warm and nice. They had generous portions, typical to small countryside restaurants. Rustic look and country hometown atmosphere. Really nice for Valentine's Day lunch. There is a state park nearby for hiking and a farmers market across the street that is awesome!!! Definitely recommend this place for lunch while sampling the local culture and market. Get the Rueben!!!!

    My family came here for breakfast right before we headed over to Janoski's for their fall activities. When we arrived around 8:45am, it was not too busy. Around 9:30 is when people started to shuffle in and there was a wait by the time we left. All of the employees here were extremely kind and aim to please. Our waitress was very sweet and made sure that our coffee cups were always full. We had a party of 6 and our food came out in about 20-25 minutes. My older sister ordered a Belgian waffle with chocolate chips and peanut butter. She absolutely loved it, and so did her fiancé. I ordered the Breakfast Sandwich on a bagel with sausage, and it was also great. The sausage was very flavorful. I got a side of bacon as well. The bacon was not bad either, just a little dry. The only issue we had with the whole meal was with the eggs. For the Big Lou, we ordered the eggs over medium, and they came out very runny and not close to medium. Other than that, there were absolutely no complaints. I hope to be back for lunch one day!

    Buffalo Chicken Wrap

    Detailed Review: Hungry Farmer: 5/5 I'm not normally the type to get a hot Italian sub but I'm so glad I did. This was a whole sub and one of them was the size of my face. Buffalo Chicken Wrap: 5/5 Best buffalo wrap I've ever had. The onion rings were also great. Ranch: 5/5 Overall, the only reason I gave it 4 stars is because service was pretty slow and the place generally looked a little rundown. But the food was incredible and I'll definitely be back.

    Omlette
    Courtney F.

    Huge delicious breakfasts! Our eyes were a bit bigger than our stomachs but everything was delicious we couldn't help ourselves! My husband and I each got an omlette (italian and egg white, both delicious)) and shared an enormous fluffy pancake. Meals are definitely large enough to share. Plentiful seating, family friendly. Would definitely go back!

My husband and I did not taste much cinnamon, but we agreed that the cream-cheese frosting was very rich. My second order was chocolate-covered strawberries and four bundt cakes in the flavors of chocolate ganache, red velvet, Kentucky butter, and love fetti. The strawberries and bundt cakes were very fresh and tasted very good.

    All I can say - OMG!…read more We have been talking about going here since u first heard about Neff Haus ... and today we decided to drive from the south hills of PGH to finally try for ourselves! It did not disappoint! I had the Bestie and my nice had the strawberry pretzel salad- both were delicious! We even went to the popcorn place affiliated with them -- u have to look for the Popkins review next! There is a small parking lot across the street - which I am sure gets busy at night ( we went when they first opened). Next time... pineapple Sophia!!!

    If you have a sweet tooth this is the spot to try! The menu…read morehas multiple different flavors for different options including their famous cloud, cookie dough ice creams, Melty cookie doughs, and other cold treats! We only got to try the melty this time but definitely want to come back to try more flavors and the cloud. It's a cute brick shop with limited space for potential lines. We went early in the day so there wasn't too much of a wait but I hear it gets very busy- and I can see why! Their treats are so unique and I've never had anything like it! The cookie dough ice cream is essentially ice cream with your choice of cookie dough scooped right on top. The Melty, which is what we tried, is your flavor choice but warmed and melty at the bottom of the cup with the ice cream on top. There is some seating in the back as well but not a ton so grab a spot if you see one! The Apple pie melty my husband got was delicious. Warm Apple pie filling with yummy vanilla ice cream on top and a nice layer of pie crust at the bottom that helped off set the sweetness of everything else. I got the two in one version of a melty that they offer which is their nighttime brownie batter and peanut butter cookie dough all warm and gooey at the bottom with vanilla ice cream piled on top. Although both were very delicious they are also both very decadent. Splitting one if you don't have the biggest sweet tooth is a good idea for how rich and plentiful it is. We will be back!
