“Best momo 🥟 love soup(Jhol)momo.“

“Food is amazing, you can taste the freshness. Very clean and fast service. would def recommend it to everyone who's at t he mall.“

“Amazing food, generous portions and incredible service!“

“Absolutely the best Italian beef I’ve had since Chicago! Curtis and staff are always friendly and welcoming! This will always be a regular spot for me!“

“The standard Chick-fil-A experience. Polite staff, fast service, and consistent food. One of the only places to grab some gluten free options when out and about. A little higher priced than other places but you know what you are getting. Salads offer a healthier option -just go light on the dressing.“

“This is an excellent halal spot! Its a bit of a wait at times and the parking blows but worth a little hassle for fresh amazing food. The entire staff works very hard. The owner Mishu is a kind man who cares about Pittsburgh and its people. Check them out here on Liberty or Carson Street for a fun change of pace.“

“I'd like to make it clear that the entire staff here is really great. The atmosphere has an easy going air to it, but reeled in enough to be business oriented and taking care of things.
I'd like to highlight Quay, an absolute joy to interact with. Asking all the right questions (those I didn't contemplate), patient as I figured it out, and she was extremely personable.
This type of service, this environment is what will have me returning.
Aside from the staff here, the whole place is clean and organized, its not a doubt the employees have integrity in their job, its a great thing to see these days, (for it is something lacking in ...various other places.
Thank you for all of your hardworking, thank you for always serving up wonderful food and experiences.“

“5 Stars – A Must-Visit in Carrick! Carrick just got a whole lot hotter—literally. This hot chicken spot is the perfect mix of bold flavor, crispy perfection, and neighborhood soul. Whether you go for mild or dare to dance with the extra hot, every bite packs a punch without sacrificing taste. The sides are legit (get the pickles and mac), and the house sauce is the kind of thing you dream about. What really sets this place apart, though, is the Carrick vibe—welcoming, gritty, and full of heart. It's the kind of joint that reminds you why this neighborhood is on the rise. Local flavor, both on the plate and in the air. Hot chicken in Carrick? Say less. This is the spot! 💙💛“

“This was quite a surprise! A gem hidden on Brookline Street! The food was absolutely phenomenal, and don’t get me started on the service! The server, behind the counter, seemed as though he could predict our every need. I had the black and blue, my partner had the American. I want to go back and try everything else on that menu!

The only thing that I’d say here is, we hope that the fries can get a little bit better.“

“Food is always great at Five Guys, so no complaints here. The staff was also very friendly. We had a newborn in the parking lot and had eaten out food in the car, so we were parked outside for a while (our baby then had thrown up so we were outside of the car cleaning up and such) and because of that a staff member came out and asked if we were okay which was really nice!“

“I had the best food last evrything was great the food the service thank you“

“Best fried chicken in the town“

“The mac and cheese is delicious the wait time and service was great. The line may look long but its not it went really fast the wait time for my order was less than 6 minutes. It was my first time going through the drive thru and it was worth it.“

“Don't sleep on the burgers and puppies. The seasoning on the puppies was divine... and the fries were sooo amazing! I wanted the chicken but couldn't have it the day I ate takeout, but it was so delicious and no frills good. Classic.“

“I went to Chicken Fil A in Fox Chapel on Thursday and was impressed by the cleanliness of the restaurant, as well as the excellent service. The bathrooms are spotless, the dining room is spotless, and the food, as always, is delicious. By far the cleanest fast food restaurant I've ever been to.“

“Manager of Scott Township is wonderful! He drove part of my missing order down to me (we share the same plaza). Just wanted to express my gratitude. Thanks again for being awesome :)“

“Amazing staff! I brought my 1 year old here for lunch and it was packed! Seemed like a field trip got here right before us but wow did everyone move things along. Our food came out in about 5 minutes even with tons of orders!
They went to the back and got us a high chair as well as brought us our food. This was his first kids meal! Plenty of food for a kid plus awesome goodies in the bag even a little foam finger.
I was blown away by how nice and helping the workers were.“

“Team member Chris was our cashier today. It was extremely busy and he was kind and polite. Thank you for your good customer service!“

“My daughter and I loved our lunch. We ordered a quesadilla and a rice bowl. It was a pleasant surprise for a food court restaurant. We will definitely eat here again. The food is made when you order it and it is worth waiting a bit for the taste of freshness.“

“Great food and super staff!
We came in 12•13 at 3 to get some post shopping snacks. We were greeted by a young lady named Tao who was super friendly and patient when taking our order. Her manager, whose name I did not catch but she was a taller lady with curly hair who put down her previous activity to help Tao make our food, was more than happy to chat with us while we waited and even gave us fresh turn-overs! Thanks for making a good day a great one!“

“I went here last night after the huge storm and nobody had power but they did. The place was super busy the employees remained calm and respectful. Line was out the door and they were running out of food. The boy at the register his name was Scott even though he was running back and forth between making milkshakes and waiting on customers he still greeted every customer with a smile including my self. Great experience in a stressful time. All 4 employees were efficient and friendly so thank you to all working 4/29/25 at the waterworks five guys!“

“I went here this afternoon for lunch with my mom and twins. It was the most professional McDonald's I have ever been too. The employees made the food quick and the order was correct. The gentleman who walks around helping people in the dining room was great and very helpful considering my twins are a handful. This was the best McDonald's experience Ive ever had.“

“fast friendly service good prices. clean.“

“Only go once a year...Cheat. Right across from New Balance where I go to buy SUMMER shoes every CINCO de mayo.“

“Some of the best burgers I've had, nice hotdogs as well. My partner had one of their new veggie burgers last time and she loved it.
It's nice that they always ask before adding toppings or condiments, my partner can't have mayo and some other places will just slap it on without asking.
Overall, really good food, pretty damn quick at a damn good price. Can't recommend enough.

P.S. Get their cheese and bacon fries, you'll thank me later“

“Can’t come back home from Dallas without going to the hot dog shoppe!!!! Makes me extremely happy!!!!!“

“Family enjoyed every bite Fast, delicious & memorable“

“Great burgers , fries & milkshakes“

“Went on a Saturday evening for dinner, and it was practically empty. I guess this is more of a takeaway place than a dine in place. You place your order at the cash register, and then when your food is ready, they bring it out to your table in a paper bag. You can choose to take it away or eat there. I got the deluxe chicken sandwich, which is sort of a breakfast sandwich with bacon and egg, and then a nice fried chicken patty. I also got the coleslaw on the side. The chicken was extremely tender, and the overall was very flavourful. It’s a good chicken sandwich, but it did not blow me away. The coleslaw had a little bit more mayonnaise than I like. Overall, a decent meal.“

“Decided to finally give this place a try since we always driving past and the reviews were good. The man taking our order was extremely nice. We ordered the tenders with fries and leg quaters. Maaaaaan this is some of the best chicken ive had in a long while! Portion size huge and food came out hot! Im already planning on coming back soon!“

“I went through the drive through and got the 2 piece chicken tender with water. The guy handing us our food was nice did forget our straw but was very apologetic and polite. The food was quite good the ranch that came with it had a nice kick. Overall pretty good. The water was 75 percent ice though.“

“Thank you for recognizing teachers and staff on Teacher Appreciation Day! The free pizza 🍕 is very appreciated and delicious!“

“Always quick and friendly service when I come through the drive-thru late night. Always get my order right too! Only concern I do have is that my Baja Blast’s taste a little “chemically” sometimes… Not sure if it’s from the syrup box running low or that it’s from the soda nozzles possibly being soaked overnight…“

“I've been to many, many different Jersey Mike's around the entire country - even the original one in Point Pleasant. The staff do a phenomenal job here and make this place the best one out of all the ones I've been to. It's always clean, the food is really good, and service is top notch. Over several visits the last few months it's been consistent too. This is a well deserved 5 stars. Thank you!!!“

“I order from here all the time because the sandwiches are delicious! Today, they forgot the mayo and pepper relish on both of our sandwiches so they were very dry and boring. I like to order online to customize my sandwich but what's the point if they skip the ingredients you want to add??“

“Best Ice Cream cakes ever!!! My family loves them🥰“

“Awesome Customer Service! The girl there today Went above and beyond. With no truck stops around it's hard to get food when you run out in the truck. I stopped today and called. The lady came out took my money and brought me my food! Thank you so much! Thank you for helping us Truckers! 👍👍“

“employees are pleasant and efficient

Parking: parking lot is set up poorly but there is a parking lot, there is a HUGE pot hole at the parking lot entrance that needs filled

Kid-friendliness: kid's meals“

“So glad the Snack Wrap is finally back! I’ve been waiting for this moment for way too long. The wrap was fresh, perfectly crispy, and hit the spot for a late-night craving. Service was quick, and everything was just right. Please never take it off the menu again!!“

“My third time there in 2 months...the steak is a great hometown taste for a franchise or chain restaurant. People are friendly funny and take pride in what they do I haven’t got past the steak yet because it’s that good. I am going to try something next visit (at least try to)“

“I haven't received my meal yet. I'm a senior citizen 1st time delivery customer. I called with concerns about my order. The young lady(Carley) assisted me was courteous, kind and patient with me. I wanted to publicly say thank you and acknowledge your work ethic. Management reward this young lady.“

“Harmarville location was my family's savior today! Sonics in Pgh Mills never took our order so we went to Burger King and our grandchildren were VERY happy! There was a long line (it was 1p) but it moved very fast about 3 min. And we had our food they got the food right even with my picky grandson. Thank you for saving the day!“

“The owner was extremely friendly and made me feel welcomed. I told him I was in town visiting and that Wilkinsburg is my hometown but I live in FL. He was so kind and asked about how we did during the recent hurricane that had just passed. We exchanged information because I told him he’d be a huge hit here in central Florida. You gotta try this place. I had to buy six of the seasoning cups because it’s delicious and I can’t find it here.“

“Always wonderful experience and recommend everyone absolutely best place to eat .“

“I SAW DRAKE. ALSO THE FOOD IS FIRE...The MINECRAFT meal at McDonald's is pure delight, With nuggets like Creepers, ready to bite. FRIES stacked high like a pixelled tower, One tasty feast with crafty power!!! I HAD A SPLENDIFEROUS time.“

“First visit yesterday lunchtime. There’s a young lady who brought my order out to the car. She spoke fast with such enthusiasm I’m not sure I heard her correctly but I think she said her name was Alesha. If I’m wrong, I’m sure you will know who I speak of. She was a sweetheart with such a smile , customer interaction with her was awesome. It’s so hard to find good people and this gal has a zest for life, pride in her work and pretty darn good people skills. In 20 seconds we had a great convo and think she should be recognized. If I got her name wrong, I’ll be better prepared to listen next time in town. Lady at the window was awesome as well!“

“It's McDonald's. No complaints about the place. It's gotten a lot more expensive. Make sure they fill up your fry container. Lots of times it's half full & you are paying a lot for fries. Check your stuff.

Kid-friendliness: Yes

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“Great service, clean, and fast“

“I stopped going to Subway a few years ago because of quality was terrible. A couple of years ago I moved and was very close to this location in Westview plaza. I don't know if it is just this location or all subways have stepped up their game but I have never gotten a bad meal at this place!
Everything is fresh and it fills me up. The best part is I order through the app and they always have at least buy one get a second for 50% off and run a buy one get one free promotion very frequently. Currently they are doing the buy one get one free promotion and I have gone there three times in the last 5 days. All three times the food was delicious and did not take long to get. I highly recommend this place.“
