Fast forward to next year/this year (I gave a somewhat glowing review last year.) Well, I'm sorry to say this place has become problematic. (a) Service/kitchen is beyond slow, (b) male waiter is abrasive, and probably more importantly, the very large sign in the lobby advertising their 1lb cod dinner is actually - Haddock!! read more

Good food , fast service. We were sitting in the bar side and it was busy so it was loud. I had the giant fish sandwich and it was HUGE ! I would definitely recommend the fried fish. Staff was friendly and very attentive. I would go back again. Food is basic bar food. Don't expect gourmet dining but the food was really good! read more

Very casual and relaxed atmosphere. Servers were attentive and helpful. Menu has all kinds of favorites and good home cooked options. Huge portions! read more

Parkstown Lounge & Restaurant - Italian sampler and fish sammi - American Near Me - New Castle, Pennsylvania

I would give this nasty place zero stars if I could. I went there the other day, some signs said, a hostess will seat you and please be patient we're understaffed. I was ok with that so I stood and waited and waited for 5 minutes before deciding to say screw it since I saw no one in the front of the restaurant and to instead head to the bar. One bartender and maybe 2 food runners at most for a room packed to the gills, if you're that understaffed you should shut down until you can get more just saying but I digress. Anyways, the bartender was very rude. Originally I let her shortness slide as anyone would be grouchy if they had to take care of a packed room pretty much by themselves. I ordered a burger just the meat and the bun, fries, a soda, and fried pickle slices. The burger came without a bun and the bartender accused me of playing a prank when I politely said that the order was wrong. That's how I knew she's actually being rude rather than simply grouchy due to the large amount of customers she was dealing with by herself. No apology or anything when she realized I wasn't lying and they'd made a mistake with my order and I wasn't joking. The burger was disgusting, it reminded me of Bob Evans or of Cosmic Rays at Disney, a thin pre grilled not fresh flavorless patty shoved on a bun. At least at Cosmic Rays and Bob Evans the bun size and texture is appropriate for the patty but at this place the bun is way too big and doughy for the thin puck of a patty you're given. The prices were at least somewhat reasonable. under 20 bucks but I will never ever be back. read more

I have eaten here many times and loved it but I ordered 3 chicken Parmesan dinners and when I got them home, they each had 3 little chicken tenders on top of the noodles with a slice of cheese melted on top. I spend $50 and was not aware that I was getting chicken tenders and noodles with hardly any sauce at all. Very disappointing. When I order chicken Parmesan I don't expect to get a kids meal. I would not recommend the chicken Parmesan. read more

I was craving fish fry and Cole slaw. The absolute greasiest battered fish I've ever had. I had one paper napkin, otherwise I'd have soaked it with grease! Oh and out of coleslaw. Of course. I travel for work in Western Pa a lot! Never coming back to this dump! read more

A great place to hang out and relax after the football games. The waitstaff are fun and attentive. The drinks are your standard bar drinks and the food is pretty good for food. The wings are always great. The burgers are so so. read more

Love the place it is so cute and the food is delicious I get the spaghetti and it is a lot. But the service is good I recommend

Great food, good prices, good portions! They specialize in Italian, and have great fish specials! read more

The waitress Cindy, is the best, she is so funny. The portions are huge and the food is good!

Today is my birthday. We put our names in for a table for 6 and left our name and number for what we were told would be a 45 minute wait. We then went back to our house which is about 2 minutes away to wait for a call back. After an hour, we called them and were told that they "don't call people". I asked why the girl took our number and she said that she didn't know. I said, today is my birthday. Thanks for f@&ing ruining it." It will be a cold day in he!! before I step I that place ever again. read more

Decent. Every time I've stopped by it hasn't been super crowded, which is nice. The prices are fair. Parking for the size of the establishment is somewhat limited. It's not hard to find, which makes for a nice place to meet people at. I'll be honest, I've never had the food ‍ I always just stop for a beer however, people have had food while I've been there and it looked and smelled good, so one can assume it isn't bad. Would recommend and revisit read more

Two weeks ago went here for the fish special. Had to wait a short period to be seated. One seated we placed our order since we new what we wanted. It took awhile, but good food is not fast food. Everyone was pleased. Fast forward two weeks! My wife and I went back for the fish dinner. It was like throwing a light switch. Waited 20 minutes to get waited on. Ordered our drinks and wanted to place our order at the same time. She rushed off and it was another five minutes to return with our drinks. Told her we were ready to order, but she advised us she would be right back. We where done with our drinks before she came back. When did make it back and we placed our order, I asked her for a refill plus another drink so could have two. People who came in and ordered after us were getting their food before we did. When we finally got our food, my wife's baked potato was not cooked and cold. We asked for bread (the menu says it is part of your meal, but you have to ask for it), three times, but never did get any. The fish was under cooked and flavorless, the greens beans were great, actually the best part of the meal and my french fries were cold and greasy. Needless to say we will not be going back! This place is a gold mine that they don't know how to mine it! read more

Just got home from there and not at all happy. Waited for a table at least 20 minutes when there was 3 available; one ready and 2 that needed clearing off, after the 20 minutes they finally said to have a seat at the 1 cleared table. This was after we were told 4 times we'll be right with you. We sat down and waited another 20 minutes or more for someone to take our order. The food was not up to par, the fish that was always flakey and tasty was chewy and very fishy tasting. Did not get the order right they forgot my side dish. The other two meals were cold and I assume that is why the fish was off too, the meals probably sat waiting to be served. This was the worst experience I've ever had there and believe me it wiped out the good experiences that I previously had there. They keep it up and they will be closing the doors one day. They've lost my money, it spends elsewhere too. read more

Wings were soooo greasy but not in a good way. I would not recommend this place. Tables were filled with plates. The server my son and I had was nice. And waitresses saw us standing at door to be seated and NEVER told us to take a seat. It wasn't until a different server told us from across the restaurant that we could sit wherever. Loaded fries were burned. Onions were black. I threw up later that night.THE PICTURE BELOW IS EXACTLY HOW WE RECEIVED OUR WINGS. PRESENTATION =0 read more

Parkstown Lounge & Restaurant - a plate of food - American Near Me - New Castle, Pennsylvania

I was there on a Friday evening during the dinner hour. I had heard positive things about their food and decided to give it a try. My first warning should have been as I watched them draw draft beers from the tap system with more foam than beer. My draft was cool, not cold and had a flat taste. I ordered the fish dinner special with a baked sweet potato. The presentation of the food was poor. The peas were a dull green. I didn't even attempt to taste them. The fried fish was a huge piece but very greasy and over cooked with some of the batter coating burned. Once I stripped away the coating, the actual fish was about two thirds of the size presented. The baked potato was on the plate and it was thrown in a piece of foil. I was not interested in even tasting it. I have no idea what others had found that they found memorable, my memory will be to drive on by! read more

This place is the absolute bomb. The beer is cold and runs like rivers flow. The crown jewel is their wings; succulent, crispy, robust, with a unique, yet classic, set list of flavors. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to a meal at this eatery. 10/10 read more

Good food but the over sauce the chicken wings and the pasta is wonderful Atmosphere was nice too and service was wonderful read more

We visited Parkstown last night after finding out the awesome wings being served at a recent party were from Parkstown. We were a party of four. Our drink order was taken almost immediately and our server followed pretty promptly after that. It took quite awhile for our food to be delivered but it seems that's the norm for this area. Once received though, the wings were AWESOME! My DH had the mild wings and I had the honey BBQ. They have about a dozen types of wings so I'm sure there is some thing for everyone. The kids meals were a good size portion wise. We'll be back. read more

This place was recommends to me while I was in town. It wasn't that busy, but it took quite a long time to get a beer, no clue why. The atmosphere was friendly. The food was cheap and low quality. I know bar food isn't that great to begin with, but the fries were soggy. When I get soggy fries I never go back. My pizza tasted like it was microwaved out of a box. Very disappointing. read more

Amazing food good service wonderful place to eat

This place has tthe best spaghetti ever with large portions at a great price.

Picking up a to-go order of wings. Great wings, good price on Mondays or Tuesday's, but slow service.

Gave three stars because usually nice friendly atmosphere. However tonight it took me 1 1/2 hrs to get 12 wings and when we tried to order drink refills we were told by the waitress Heather that she knew we were wanting refills but she is busy and did not have the time to wait on us read more
