    Stuffed banana peppers
    Hannah G.

    Just before Christmas I went to dinner with my family at Rodney's in Irwin. We went on a Monday just after 6 pm. It was busy but we were seated right away. Our server was great! The portions here are huge and hearty! You get a lot of bang for your buck. What we ordered: -Stuffed Banana Peppers - these were HUGE and were really tasty! Definitely found a new fav appetizer -Fettucine du-Marie alfredo with jumbo tiger shrimp & scallops - I have to admit that I have not had an alfredo that is better than my homemade sauce, BUT this still hit the spot. The seafood portions were generous. -Side Caesar salad (comes with the pasta dish) - really big portion for a side salad which was nice! I liked that they added hard boiled eggs. Pretty good for a side salad. -Winter lemon drop cocktail - refreshing! Love a lemon drop -Complementary bread - yummy & loved that it was toasted -Pork chop & fried jumbo shrimp - my family's orders. I tried one of the fried shrimp and it was good! -Not pictured but my dad got the black angus strip - he ordered it rare but said it was a little overcooked. He said it was just good. He is a steak snob though. Overall this is a good spot for a solid meal if you find yourself in Irwin!

    Fried Zucchini

    Handsome husband and I went here because we had a gift card. The fried zucchini and Reuben were decent but I don't really get the hype. Your typical standard American fare/ food menu selection. For two people with more eclectic palates, there was nothing too exciting on the menu to entice us to return.

    Steak Hoagie

    This was our first visit to Rodney's, and we went on the recommendation of some trusted friends. It was a weekday early-evening visit, and we were able to get right in. The service was split between two waitresses, and they did a pretty good job. I really liked the atmosphere of the place, and found it very clean--even the bathroom! The food was good, with only a couple things we found issue with. For meals, we had the Chicken Marsala which was good. Wife had the Chicken Milanese, which was good, but was very dry. It was supposed to come with the lemon butter caper sauce, and the only thing there really was on it was the capers with a hint of lemon in the background. The sauce was nowhere to be found. It was good enough to try again next time, though, but we'd ask to possibly go a little heavier on the sauce. She had to ask for a cup of sauce to go on the pasta that came with it, that was also found to be very bland and dry. Once it got hit with some spaghetti sauce, though, it was good. Both of us had a French Onion soup, and it was pretty decent. Daughter had a steak hoagie, and found it to be mostly bread. Probably wouldn't get that again. Other daughter had the Firecracker Chicken sandwich, and loved it. Youngest had a small pizza to herself, and loved it. Guest with us had a Spaghetti with Meatball, and loved it *eventually*, but had to ask for more sauce as the pasta was pretty dry once it was mixed up--it definitely needed more sauce on it. Overall, we want to go back and try some other things. We also want to get a chance to try the dessert menu--it looked phenomenal!

    Stopped by for some takeout on a road trip. I was able to order online and pick it up on time. The food quality was great, with perfectly cooked fish along with creamy mashed potatoes and veggies. Would recommend this dish. While we didn't eat there, the inside of the restaurant had many patrons and it looked clean. The parking lot is large.

    This restaurant was quite a nice surprise. We just thought it was another Italian restaurant in an area that seemed to have quite a few. When pulling in we saw the parking lot was packed & worried for a minute that we wouldn't get a table. No problem! We were seated promptly in a back room that appeared to be used mostly for large groups. Another surprise. A special Monday night pasta menu with 4 choices for only $11.95. I ordered the angel hair pasta topped with hot sausage stuffed banana peppers. So good! I'm not always a fan of tomato sauce since I prefer my husband's. This was really good. The banana pepper and hot sausage added a nice kick to the meal. I started with a bowl of French onion soup that was loaded with big pieces of onions. Only complain here was the melted cheese did not cover the top of the bowl. No room for dessert. Topping to the meal, excellent service all while they were also setting up for a huge group that was coming in as we were wrapping up. 2024-54

    Kids Chicken Tenders

    The first time we drove to Rodney's the parking lot was so full we went home. This time, we made a reservation. We were a little early but were seated right away. The dining room is cozy but not crowded which I really liked. I had the lobster pot pie which had a tail in it! The meat was tender and flavorful. The mashed potatoes were a little lack luster but the pot pie was the star of the show. We also had Cajun Chicken Tortellini and French onion soup. Since it was a special occasion we made sure to save room for dessert. We had red velvet cheese cake which was good and crème brûlée which was fantastic!

Incredulously they had charged me .50 an olive for my two martinis. Total of 2.00 for 2 olives in each of my two martinis. The total check for the table was close to 300.00. It is. It is not the price but the audacity of the management to nickel and dime every facet of a meal. Supposedly this is fine dining, but you are going to charge money for a stuffed olive that comes in a jar from Aldis for 2.29. I will not be back under principle. I withdraw my membership voluntarily and will not renew. What has happened to a once flawless destination. If the management decides to move on to bigger and better things; there is a McDonalds down the highway, that needs someone to count pickle slices out for each hamburger. The 300.00 check included tip. Will not be going back Cheapskate

They will also give you samples so you can pick which pint you ultimately want to purchase. The space itself is long and narrow. There are a few low top tables in the front, high top stools at the bar and high top round tables in the center.

The place seems to have a real small town feel where most of the patrons all knew each other or at least the bartender knew all of them. Everyone from patrons to staff was very friendly. It's a nice little spot inside. I was surprised that they had a pretty big tap list for such a small spot. They seemed to have beers of most styles in tap to fit anyone's palate. I ordered two hazy IPA's and they were decent. If I'm ever back in the area I would probably stop again.
