50 Best American Restaurants near Dunlevy

“This restaurant is local to us and I've probably passed it literally 1000 times driving around since I was 16 and never stopped for a snack or a meal so, I took my mother here for her 83rd birthday last week and will definitely be back...Perfectly cooked and presented food and exemplary service is the key here... The interior definitely gives you the 70's vibe but, you're not going here to eat the decorations right ???I definitely suggest to get there early because at 8pm (They close at 9pm) they were out of the Lobster Special and the soup of the day which was Lobster Bisque...I had a perfectly cooked Blackened Ahi Tuna that I very much enjoyed and my mom had the Chicken Parmesan which was perfectly prepared as well...I'm probably gonna go back this weekend for a quick sammich/snack on the fly because the first experience was just really good...Overall, I'd absolutely recommend this place anytime you're feeling a bit hungry and don't feel like cooking ???“

“We like to try local Mon Valley eatery's and came across this well known but not to us gem in Monessen Pa. Absolutely clean and fresh inside, fabulous food and portion size priced average for post pandemic resturants that have it figured out. All adds up very strongly recomend and will definitely be back !!“

“Stopped here on our way through Monongehela. My husband had the cheese burger and d fries and really enjoyed it. I cannot eat gluten and very rarely find a place that can accommodate me. I had kolbassi with no bun, coleslaw, and they cooked my fries in a separate fryer. Everything was very good!“

“We went here for the first time tonight with our 3 kiddos (6,4,&1) the owners and staff were so accommodating! Food was quick, hot and priced awesome for the huge portions you get!! We all left stuffed! Amazing atmosphere , friendly staff, extremely clean ! Would recommend to everyone!! 😍“

“Our grandson loves it there. He is only 2 1/2 but love to hit golf balls & loves the ice cream.“

“Home town small business. CASH only, they do have an ATM if you need.This place feels like old times, better times. Not modern in any sense of the word, but very welcoming. If you're offended easily, this is not the establishment for you.Ham BBQ sandwich was delicious and filling. The side of fries were an actual side, not overflowing to make up for poor food quality.Wait staff was pleasant and accommodating. I will be coming back.My only critique, the floor cleanliness needs to be improved. I didn't notice until going towards the restroom that the tiles could be ivory white or better. There's a section of high traffic carpet that needs cleaned, as well.

Wheelchair accessibility: Lots of handicap parking up front“

“Enjoyed an evening here for the 55th reunion of the BVA class of 1968. The setting was very nice for the some 70 classmates and guests. The buffet dinner was one of the best I have eaten with plenty of great food. The two servers did wonders filling plates and seeing to the needs of all. I understood the establishment worked well with the event organizers. I would not hesitate to attend another function here again.“

“We visited Dale’s last week for the first time. It was definitely the first of many, many future visits we plan to make!! It was a Thursday and The bartender was fantastic, full of personality & very welcoming. Great service! The bar/restaurant was nice inside and decorated perfectly! The food was great and we already can’t wait to try more items on their menu. The other staff were very nice and welcoming as well!! We met the owners mother & she gave us a tour of the outside heated patio and the full outside patio. We can’t wait to enjoy those areas on our next visit!! We were pleasantly surprised for a small place tucked around a corner in Smithton to be so wonderful and one of our new future hang outs!!“

“Great food!! Good people!! Chief Lamont is fantastic!!“

“I'm a native of Stamford, Connecticut and I moved to PA 2 ½ years ago and coming to The Eldorado was an amazing experience. The staff and community here are good people. Katie, Emily, Laura, Brooke, and Victoria are the coolest bartenders/costumers I've come in contact with. They made me feel at home away from home and I'm grateful to have met them. Keep rocking, God bless, and 1love! ?“

“Local comfort food at its finest! Some of the servers have been there for 20 years, they've seen my kids grow up from babies to young adults. Atmosphere is wonderful. Family friendly with a very affordable menu and definitely a gabfest for the senior friends! The kiddos love the free Smiley Cookie when we leave! Can't go wrong with Eat N Park!“

“I have never had a bad meal at the “new” cactus. The fact that it’s now a family friendly establishment makes it a great place for family get togethers! The food has been amazing so far....and happy hour specials are amazing! Definitely check it out if you’re in the Perryopolis area!“

“good food . good prices. friendly staff“

“No complaints! Food was great, management and service was great, bartending was great. Everything from the tasting to our take-home meal at the end of our wedding day was wonderful. Good communication, good ideas to make the day easier on us, and most importantly (as mentioned already) good food!“

“I knew I was in for somethin special when I walked up into their parkin' field and saw small rocks gravellin it up all fancy like. This upscale establishment had walls from floor to ceiling on all sides. It even had not one, but two doors to go through. And get this, they on the hinges! Wow. But that's nothing compared to what I discovered entering the final door... the floor... i thought they forgot to put da sawdust down and Id be walking on raw dirt, naw, naw, it was better than saw dust. You ever hear of fellers puttin down wood across an entire floor? That must have taken a lot of dedicated non drinkers a lot of time. It nearly brought a tear to my eye to know they cared enough for me to spend all that time for me. I went to look up to the Heavens and thank God, but I couldn't see a cloud in sight. You know that dang place had a roof on it? And not any normal roof, a roof without a hole in it? Well I forgot what happened next, but I woke up in a ditch, pulled out my phone and wrote this review. I'm not sure if it was real or some kind of dream, but if I can find my way back to the country, where all the people want to be nice to everyone(like everyone everyone should learn to be nice to each other) , I'd walk right back in. Love's the way. Love is eternal.“

“Well, technically this is not a separate restaurant from Denny's. It's predominantly a curated and slightly different menu for the DoorDash/GrubHub/insert-food-delivery-service-here crowd. That said, I haven't had a single negative thing to say. The staff that preps and serves the meals at this Denny's location are the same great staff I enjoy when I go there. Good food, reasonable prices, and smooth service.“

“Great food & service....perfect place for a pit stop will boating the Mon!“

“Stopped in today to check out the place. Very clean and huge inside. Looks great!! We didn't eat there but the fish looks amazing from what I've seen. The staff is very friendly. Definitely stop in and give the place a try!!“

“Damn good place to relax and throw a couple back. Good atmosphere and crowd. Bar food is off the chain. Its just an all around good place to be. If you haven't been here before, then I suggest a trip and a try out,you don't be disappointed and believe me I'd the you otherwise if it were any other way.“

“I have always been a huge fan of Becks pizza, getting apps and pizza once or twice a week! Their sweet sauce is amazing! This morning I stopped for their newly added breakfast menu and ordered the Frenchy sandwich, this sandwich was nothing short of delicious. IT IS HUGE!! The croissant was buttery and the eggs were super fluffy! If you haven't tried Becks food yet, you are missing out!“

“We came for the first time today with a party of 12 to celebrate birthdays. The service was outstanding! All the food came out so quickly and it was delicious! Our server was amazing and attentive! Everyone was kind and welcoming! We will definitely be back soon!“

“The food is always good whatever you choose... This time I had the Grilled Chicken Caesar salad with the bacon dressing and it was scrumptious... Rye's will always come in clutch for a great lunch or dinner or just stopping by for a few drinks...“

“First time here. Really enjoyed the atmosphere, very laid back. Great music on the jukebox. We had a table of 10 and there was only 1 cook and 1 bartender/waitress, and they did a phenomenal job. The food came out quickly, I wait a lot longer at most other restaurants with a large staff. Wings are amazing. They have whole wings!! The jimmy fries are delicious. Drink prices are great. Nice drink specials, too. If you're looking for a nice clean bar, good food this is your place. Kudos to this amazing duo. ??

Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible!!“

“My boyfriend and I stopped in for our last lunch until he gets back in a month as an otr truck driver. I googled restaurants near the Smithton truck stop and I was not disappointed. The food was awesome and the service even better!! We left full and happy. Needless to say we will be back!!!“
