Their fried fish is amazing

R Crawford

The coldest drafts in Ambridge

Placed an order to pick up, the fish sandwich didn't have the bun or the side hot sauce and tartar sauce also didn't include the coleslaw that the menu said it came with. The steak salad was okay if the greens weren't old it would've been great because the steak was good. The tahi shrimp is just fried shrimp with buffalo dipping sauce. So basically a fancy name for fried shrimp the fried pickles were good.

The Orbit has fantastic fried cod on Fridays. Probably the best in the area. Unfortunately, my past four visits to the restaurant the coleslaw has been served room temperature. My last visit was on the last Friday of lent. The restaurant was overwhelmed with business. My coleslaw was served to me warm-hot, sour, & spoiled. The customer next to me complained about the same issue. I was told the coleslaw is pre-scooped setting on a sheet tray, and not refrigerated. Nevertheless, the spoiled coleslaw should have been taken off the menu. I was offered jalapeño coleslaw as a replacement, it was better but room temperature aswell. My mac & cheese was colder than the coleslaw. Nevertheless, we waited 1hour & 45 minutes for two meals. My wife's smashed burger was also cold. It is too bad a wonderful fried fish dinner was made lackluster.

Though the decor is a little outdated and dark, it did not take away from the atmosphere of friendliness. The employees were very friendly and everyone of them were smiling. I had a special order and the server made sure it came out exactly as I ordered it. The food was good. I went for the fish but they were sold out. No problem, I hot a steak sandwich and it was real steak. Not steakums. I just wish there was another entrance to the restaurant other than walking through bar. Good place to eat and meet. Stop on by and grab a bite. You won't be sorry.

I visit the area often to see my in-laws, and The Orbit is the best around. Rick is a wonderful chef and host, and truly tries to innovate and give his customers quality product for a great price. The fried fish is perfect, the corn chowder is phenomenal, and they’ve got a good burger if you prefer turf.
The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the drinks are cold.
