“Had a large family birthday dinner ar Rizzo’s tonight and the staff, service, and food were excellent! Great experience and Highly recommend!“

“This review is a long time coming!!! I’ve always thought I have a good judge of character. After all … I smoke cigars! I have frequented almost all of the cigar places around town and have actuality been very fond of almost all of them, but Aiello’s is just a notch above the rest. I have tried many times to find something off, because it’s one of those”too good to be true” deals at this place. Not only do they have great bocce ball courts, great cigar selections, they also have top notch bourbons that are hard to find in bars. (Blanton’s, Bookers, Mid Winters Night, ect…) but to top it off … they are family owned and treat you like you are family. All of the patrons that frequent are always inviting, wether they are playing a game here and there or just watching the games on tv… never once have had a bad time here. It’s definitely a place you could take anyone to have a great time… 5 stars“

“Great 👍 place to hang out!“

“The rudest manager I have ever met. the restaurant was only about 30% full and the hostess would not seat us at the table we wanted to sit at, even though 70% of the tables were empty. I asked her to ask the manager, and we still couldn't sit at the table we wanted. So, we decided to leave. On the way out, I stopped at the hostess desk and very politely asked her to pass along to the manager why we were leaving so that he would be aware because if I were manager, I would want to know why my customers left before ordering.. The manager came up behind me while I was telling her that and interrupted me saying to stop talking because he was aware of my opinion. He went on to say that he had been doing this for a long time and knows what he is doing. When I started to respond, he interrupted me again shouting "Stop talking!" and then, "Just leave!" I had made my request for the table very politely and was also very politely asking the hostess to let him know that we were leaving for that reason. To be interrupted twice and yelled at and told to stop talking and just leave in the manor he did so was outrageous behavior verging on threatening. I will never return and will encourage all the groups I routinely go to sports bars with to never return. If you are going to a sports bar to watch your favorite teams, this is definitely NOT the place to go. You will likely not be able to watch the teams you like and will get yelled at if you try. Customer service is definitely not something this place values.“

“It's normally a good time for a couple of drinks and relax. When we paid the bartender, I was tipping her when she grabbed $3 from the bar so fast without saying a word. I was going to add $5 to it, but she didn't want it, I guess. We only had 2 beers each. Sad reality is that the service industry now expects tips but doesn't want to earn any.“

“Foreplay is always good, everything else was TRASH. Awful service from a completely clueless server. Waited an hour and a half with no food or drink and ended up canceling the order. She didn't even care about the issues either. No "sorry I'm terrible at my job." Nothing. Her name was "Kerrie" and you should avoid her. Was told there was no manager on duty on a Saturday night so that's cool too. Three other bartenders seemed uninterested in helping too. Won't go back and I'll tell everyone else the same thing. I would like to shout out to the door guy. He at least provided some customer service when I had an issue“

“Always great food and service!!“

“Staff is always so nice. The beer flights are perfect for trying all the new seasonal flavors and the BLT flatbread is my absolute favorite! 🤤Love listening to the live music on the weekends. Highly recommend!“

“This is mu favorite bar for fabulous food and a friendly face. Staff is always amazing. Ashley behind the bar makes creative shots, just tell her what you're in the mood for. Most nights the owner is checking on tables and making her rounds, always taking time to talk to the regulars. Food is amazing. Huge salads and canzone. Come check it out, just leave me a seat at the bar.“

“We love eating at Bristol! We go every Sunday and love visiting with our bartender, Jess! She’s the best!“

“Fun atmosphere for all ages. Sand volleyball, pickle ball, whiskey bar, and concert venue. It is open seating, there are several clusters of chairs and firepits, but you have to get there pretty early to score those. Bring your camping chair and enjoy the live music on the turf. Food trucks change, so look it up before you go!“

“Best french onion soup i've had ever. I hide the recommended and don't get just the cup.Make sure you get an entire bowl and some to take home. The atmosphere here is lively but not too loud so that you can't hear the person next to you. All the?
People here not only the staff but also the patrons are just great. Everyone has been so warm and friendly to me here and I am very thankful. I highly recommend coming on Sundays.They have a little bit of the south On the menu. to come and eat.“

“One of my friends and I have decided Bemo’s is our new go-to happy hour spot for good reason! The staff is great and always helps with food allergies, making dishes to-order. We are always happy with the service and food.“

“West Allen catered my wedding on 9/27/2025 and they were AWESOME. They were on time and set up promptly, staff was extremely personable, and food was warm and delicious as always even with being short a person. I received tons of compliments throughout the night with one newly engaged couple even asking for info in case they decide to use West Allen for their wedding caterer. I would absolutely use them again!“

“Dano's tacos are delicious.“

“This place is cute and friendly! The sloppy nachos were amazing. We will be back to sample more of the menu!“

“We’ve been here twice and both times service and food were excellent. May be my new favorite restaurant in this area. Highly recommend!“

“Great food & great atmosphere along with outstanding service !!!“

“We ate their last night for dinner for the very first time. I must say the food was really good but, our appetizer came out which was the spicy Mac & cheese bites, they were good but cold in the center. I let the waitress know and she apologized. She took them back and bought a freshly made order and they were steaming hot and excellent! I got the double smash burger, which was really good, but it was cooked more like a regular hamburger because on a Smashburger the edges are crispy which adds to the flavor. My hamburger SB edges, even though it was a really good burger! I I would still recommend eating here because the food is really good and the service is excellent! I get it some days,there are off days and maybe that’s what happened. But we will definitely be back!“

“Their eggs, bacon and iced coffee are the best we've had! Highly recommended!“

“Great place to bring the family. Relaxed environment.“

“Atmosphere was wonderful, associates were attentive and the fare was absolutely fantastic! It was our first visit and definitely will not be our last. There was a small delay with drinks from the bar and we were graciously given a gift card for our wait, which was unexpected and unnecessary but greatly appreciated. Thankyou 54th for a wonderful meal !“

“Had a Sunday brunch with my friend at Dogwood. It was our first time going, and we love it! She ordered jumbo wings and I ordered the garbage burger. It's delicious with sidewinders (curl-cut fries)! Topped it all off with ice cream on a waffle. Delicious as well! Our server, Rain, was excellent! This is a big place, filled with arcade games for the whole family. I'll have to return to play!“

“Ate here today, food was outstanding. Becca the waitress was fabulous, I have been craving a chili burger since moving here, I looked at the menu, no chili burgers, but they have chili & burgers. I told Becca what I wanted and she brought it out to me. Becca is a fantastic server.“
