Rockwell's Red Lion Restaurant

Reviewed By Leigha H

I haven't been to dine, but I can say we normally sell fundraisers and such through them for cheer. BUT I cannot believe how I was just treated by Lynn Rockwell in the parking lot next to Bartons Bakery. Apparently that is her lot and she owns it and if you park there to pick up your flowers with a toddler in tow she will honk her life away at you. I made sure to pull out for her, not quick enough though. I told her it was very sweet of her to rush me so much especially since I was barely in my car when the honking at me began. And then she came to my car telling me it was her lot not Bartons and that she needed to get to work so I needed to move. Funny thing is there were definitely other spaces. Needless to say if an owner treats someone that way out in the public I can't see how they have great customer service in their own industry. Very disgusting with the amount of disrespect shown.

Ciccanti Ristorante

Reviewed By Jim D - West Richland, Washington

My wife and I eat here every time we come to Pittsburgh. We have never been disappointed. Love the Italian food here and you will not go home hungry. I love this place because they have at least 10 Different veal dishes. They're minestrone soup is excellent and we always take home a quart of their spaghetti sauce. not the ones that they have in jars, but a quart from what they have in the kitchen. You will love the sauce. The atmosphere is very nice here. Low background music, nice surroundings kind of old world. This year we will be here for an extended period of time and I expect we will be eating here at least one or two more times. You won't be disappointed. Give it a try.

This is without a doubt the best, the very best ice cream establishment anywhere! Be careful regarding the size of cone you order as a small is more than enough
Another highlight is they have different "Dole" ice creams on various days, all of them are fantastic. The place gets very busy as it is just the best anywhere. You can use a credit/debit card as long as the purchase is over $5.00 which is understandable. Just for your info!

We moved from the area in 1979 and had eaten there often before we moved. Just visited last week and the food was as wonderful as ever. Must try the Monster cheese burger and onion rings.

I have a weakness for longstanding, family-run businesses and Woody's checks that box. Their food is always good, staff is attentive, but the food can seem overpriced for their portions. I do recommend their stuffed cabbage!

We loved the food and atmosphere here! It doesn’t look like much from your first impression on the outside but please don’t let that stop you. Reservations are recommended. It’s a small, cozy place. If you are in a rush.... go somewhere else but I think the service was perfect for this type of place! They want you to stay and enjoy your meal and wine, not get it down ya then get out so ENJOY IT!! We sure did!

Elrama Tavern

Reviewed By RichnLin - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

We stopped in for lunch yesterday and were impressed with the interior layout. We were greeted by our waitress very quickly with menu in hand. The menu has a great amount of options, as they say, from soup to nuts. Since we did not have hours to spend we went with the all American favorite, cheesburgers and fries. Our orders came and the food was very good. The service, food, and cool interior is great! The only fault for us was the portion sizes. The burgers were small, the larger order of fries was big enough for one, and $5.00 for two glasses of soda was a bit much. The cost of the lunch will not break our bank but when I write a review I compare the establishment to other's we have visited. Please understand that this is a great tavern but not really one that we will revisit. Our fav remains the Beach House in Finleyville, just a few miles away.

Get there early before they sell out. One of the cheapest hoagies around. Excellent hoagie. Also used a lot for fundraisers. So you probably had one and just don't know it
