I was there for first time about a year ago and loved it. Then about 2 weeks ago, A friend of mine and myself decided to go there for lunch. We got there, hardly anyone there around 1230 pm. We ordered, and then we waited. The waiter, I believe the owners son stopped at least 5 times to tell us our food was coming, so he was attentive. Turns out after about an hour of waiting for our orders,’he finds out that they were never made. The owner was cook I believe. Fast forward about 10 minutes later our food comes out. My burger, raw, I ordered it well done. Of course I didn’t eat it, they took it off the bill and offered to make me something else, but at this point we had been there an hour an half and needed to leave. I have no idea what happened here but failures all around that day. I’m sure the owner remembers, he was bussing tables and asked why I didn’t eat my burger. I won’t be back, but hopefully others have better...
Read moreReally nice small, local Italian spot in Lower Burrell. The menu consists mostly of Italian-American classics and they seem to keep it pretty simple, but do things well. I got to try their chicken park hoagie (half size) and the apple pie.
The chicken park hoagie was great. The chicken seemed fresh and high quality, not rubbery like in many places. Breaded well. Cheese was pretty decent as well. Good portion, satisfying. Red sauce was flavorful but not too standout. I would recommend the sandwich.
You also get to choose a side when you order something like a sandwich, and I went with hush puppies. They were okay but I wish I tried something else. Not super flavorful and pretty dry.
The apple pie wasn’t necessarily standout but did hit the spot. Lots of apple chunks and a good portion. Not too sweet. Enjoyed.
All in all, I like this little spot. I could see myself getting another sandwich from here....
Read moreWent here for lunch. Empty restaurant except for a pair of women finishing their meal. Hubby ordered a Rueben with French fries. His Rueben was good, but his fries tasted like fish. (Old grease?) I ordered a Chef salad. I was brought a Cobb salad and at first I said that's ok, I'll try this. Unfortunately, the entire thing tasted like blue cheese and I asked the very nice waiter to get me the chef salad. He had already confirmed that the order stated CHEF and said it was the cooks fault. He brought me a Chef salad and it was missing olives and eggs. I pointed that out to him and he said "that's a minor inconvenience ". Excuse me? We paid our bill and left. A salad they couldn't get right. We won't...
