    Took a little trip to Allentown and found a gem -- AyatNYC. Palestinian food that is nothing short…read moreof delicious. Every bite felt like comfort and culture on a plate. Food is love. Food is resistance. Food is memory. Sitting here reminded me that when we support Palestinian restaurants, we're not just enjoying incredible flavors -- we're uplifting a people, a history, and a fight for freedom. Free Palestine. #AyatNYC #AllentownEats #PalestinianFood #FreePalestine

    Came here yesterday and was extremely disappointed to see the restaurant tank in comparison to my…read moretwo prior visits. The prices have increased significantly. We were seated after the people who walked in after us. Some tables received water and no complimentary bread/olives while others received no water but complimentary bread/olives. Our bread was also sitting out for some time as the baker was not present to make it fresh at the time. It appeared very stale. The restaurant was half empty but it took over an hour (in addition to the understood 25 minute maklouba prep) for our main entree to come out. When it did, there was no apology and we had to ask if the accompanying labneh was on its way for the maklouba. The maklouba itself had rice grains not fully cooked. The server was avoiding eye contact as we tried to ask for more napkins, water and an update on our order. It then took another thirty minutes for us to get the check and pay, which was only possible because we got up. We watched as people waited so long to not only be seated but to also check out. The menu has a lot to offer of the Palestinian culture but the lack of service, lack of freshness and lack of efficiency won't have us coming back.

    I've been on a quest for Prime Rib! So, I decided to try Grumpy's. Always ordered rare, which means…read moreyou get medium rare at all the places I've tried. I've had tender, cut with a fork prime rib years ago, but I cannot this elusive cut anywhere in the Lehigh Valley. The places I've tried were all good, but none were great! I've tried prime rib at Millers Ale House, Prime Steakho.use, Texas Roadhouse, Outback, Longhorn. While the seasoning and taste varies from place to place; the one common element is having to saw the steak with a knife to cut it. This results in excessive chewing of the meat. This really reduces overall enjoyment of the prime rib experience. To get what I want from a prime rib experience will probably require paying $60 plus dollars and a long drive from the Lehigh Valley. Grumpy's of course serves smoked prime rib. I love smoked meats but not when it comes to prime rib I discovered. So, I won't be getting the $32 dollar, 16oz prime rib there again. I will be ordering the blackened bleu cheese burger with bacon and the ribs again! Onion rings a must for me. The side salad (adds $2) is excellent! Not just iceburg lattuce. I chose cole slaw as a side' it's good but their style of pink cole slaw is not for me. You get a piece of corn bread, but it's tiny and totaly underwhelming compared to cornbread elsewhere. The staff is courteous, attentive, and friendly. The ambience leaves much to be desired. To me feels like a bikers bar, which it is not. At the end of the day Grumpy's gets a B+ in my book and I will occasionally visit for lunch or dinner. Note: Their Au Jus is highly recommended and is not served with the meal. Must be asked for and you'll be glad you did!

    Out with some friends and the food and service were amazing. Not our first time here and certainly…read morewon't be our last. Wish I had more pictures to share but we devoured everything so quickly. But that does say something about how delicious Grumpy's BBQ really is. My wife and I shared the extreme sampler. Half a rack of ribs, half a smoked chicken, and sliced beef brisket with two sides. More than an enough for two but if you're a true hard-core carnivore, you can take this down by yourself.
