    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!

    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.

    For being located in a small town, I was blown away by the quality of the food here. This pizza…read moreshop is extremely underrated, if you live around the area, and it's definitely worth the price given how all of the ingredients taste high-quality. Also, the specialty flavors are unique and taste great (the bbq chicken and pepp sting pizzas are a must-try!). In addition to this, they have wonderful gluten-free options, of which they are undeniably the best-tasting in the area. Parking is a bit rough sometimes during rush hour, but it's understandable given the small size of the location. Service has always been pleasant when I come to pick up my order, and have never gotten my order wrong. Overall, in terms of price and quality, Aroma is definitely the best option in the area, and is a must-try for anyone who supports small businesses and wants amazing pizza!

    It has been a bit since I wrote a review but I think this place is a good one to start back up…read morewith. We live in the Robinson area and usually drive to the city for the fancier pizza options. I heard about this place a few times and was interested in trying it. Since it was a weeknight, I did not want to drive in rush hour traffic so we thought this would be the perfect time to try this place. We got a lot of food. We started with their Bacon Cheese Fries (would have been better fresh so that the cheese wasn't hardened over the fries) and Mozzarella Wedges. My fiance loved the Mozzarella Wedges - reminded me of the ones at Primanti's. My son, of course, wanted a simple pizza so we ordered the Traditional Pizza with Pepperoni. He really liked it - it has a garlic butter crust which took it up a notch, in my opinion. I decided to try two speciality pies: Margherita and Aroma Mia. They were both good - if you're looking for something different, the Aroma Mia is great! The Margherita was good too but the fresh mozzarella cooled down/hardened enough on our 15 minute drive home that it didn't come off in bites. (Not saying this in a negative way - still tasted great but would have been better to each fresh out of the oven. The only item that wasn't up to par was my fiance's Steak Hoagie. He got double meat and isn't a picky eater but felt for the price, it wasn't worth it. He said the steak reminded him of gyro meat texturally which weirded him out. He still ate it but said that if we went back here, he would just order pizza. The downside? It's only takeout and delivery. There's a small table in there to wait for your food but that's it. If there's one thing I'd change, it would be that. I think when you make specialty pizza, it's so much better to eat fresh vs. placing it into a box to have sit in your car until you arrive home. To wrap the experience up, I'm glad I went. Was it pricy? Yes. But did we get a ton of food? Yes. 2 appetizers, 3 small pizzas and a steak hoagie ended up being about $100. For a small town, it's a lot. However, I would go back again and just order less food. If you're ever near the airport/Robinson and want a good pizza on the go, I'd recommend trying it out. Hopefully one day they can grow and find a way to add some tables. I think this place can be a hit!

    Walked by to check out the vibe. It was busy, still had seats, my stomach was asking me to stay and…read morenot rely on whatever snack my flight offered! Stood next to the "wait to be seated" sign and was whisked to a choice of high-top table or chair. The chair was the thing! I put my baggage on the other seat and a server got me an 18oz beer right away. I had a question about the sandwich and she answered it. Made my order quickly, as my flight would be boarding in 50 minutes. The pastrami sandwich looked like a mountain, when it got to the table. Crisp cabbage with a hint of vinaigrette held hands with crispy fries that topped the hot pastrami that was recently on the searing flattop! Wow! What a bite! There was half a sandwich left after just a few minutes. My beer washed it down. The other half dared me to bite it, so I obliged! More yumminess!! It really looks like a huge, but it bites down well! Lots of Steeler decorations all around, and even the bartender was wearing a football jersey of the best team in the league! Can't wait to come back!

    I travel through Pittsburgh frequent and this Primanti Bros. location. Service is always good and…read morethe food fresh. Today, however, in the midst of tough economic times, I had a different experience. I was a willing buyer of an upsell to a dirty soda. This is a Coke with syrup in it. It costs twice as much normal soda because of the flavoring. You get one for that. I asked for a regular coke refill and was refused. Mind you, you can buy a soda for 1/2 the price and get unlimited refills. Common sense says a coke refill without syrup should be no problem. The server was brand new and didn't know. Enter Kevin, who joyfully said that the policy said no refills on the 2x priced soda (without the cream syrups). Even though everyone here has unlimited soda, including staff. This is the easiest customer service issue for a good manager to make right. What did Kevin do? He double downed. I asked for a more senior, reasonable person. No such person was here. I asked for the home office email or phone numbers. He told me to look it up myself. Awesome example in front of my family of what not to do. By the way, no voices were raised or scene made. It wasn't worth that trouble. And clearly, the light wasn't coming on for Kevin. I order a sweet tea and then change to unsweetened, according to Kevin, it is a different charge. I know Primanti is better than this. Avoid the heartburn and don't buy the Dirty Soda as it is the poorest value on the menu. The food was fresh and tasty, promptly delivered. Shameful that such a simple and inexpensive thing was left unattended. This locations has a lot of tvs dedicated to the best in sports programming. After a long week away from home, facing a 2 hour delay, it wasn't the experience I was hoping for.
