Off The Rak Restaurant and Bar

*There was only one waitress for the entire restaurant, so we were there for a long time. We felt bad for her.
*We specifically drove there for ribs, which is what they're known for, and they were out of ribs. Could've posted on their Facebook page.

Last couple of trips here have been hampered by insufficient staffing. I'm not sure what's going on, but they don't have enough hands to do the job correctly.

Tonight the food clearly sat under the warming lamps for too long. Cold potatoes, dried over cooked fish, infrequent drink refills. Rolls are by request according to the menu. That wasn't my experience. Rolls just never arrived regardless of request.

This has been one of, if not the best, restaurant in Ebensburg. However across several trips in the last 6 months, I now have to recommend chain stores. Applebee's and Hoss's are both less expensive and result in a better quality meal and dining experience. Two of the three steaks (8 people in our party) were tough. Again it seems like it stemmed from the food being held for so long.

Original review from 2019: Good food, good atmosphere.

I'm not from here, I'm from New Jersey. But I come up here to take care of somber family stuff. I love this place, the food is always good. It always picks up my spirits when I come here! I always get a steak, the staff is always friendly, the service is always good, it always puts a smile on my face when I come here! The drinks are always okay, I really like the apple pie moonshine or whatever it's called! The price is always reasonable and affordable! It's good comfortable atmosphere!

Great atmosphere. Friendly staff

End to end great experience. Hostess accommodated seating preference, attentive server, great food and cocktails. Fried motz are my fave.

Great food, awesome spot.

The staff here truly makes the experience—always quick, friendly, and attentive. They keep things running smoothly in a great atmosphere

Great food.

Huge menu, delicious food. Just off 22.

Great place for drinks dinner and dessert.

Oak steak is delicious

Very clean upscale kind of bar/restaurant. The food is a little pricy but worth it. Love their steak salads. Atmosphere is mostly quiet. The waiter/waitresses are attentive and polite.

If you're looking for a good restaurant to eat in the ebensburgh area, this would be your place. They have a vast selection of food as well as drinks that should please anyone's pallet.
I didn't fully understand the gravity of my actions when I ordered this super sized burger! It was very delicious, and I was unable to finish the whole thing. If you're looking for a food challenge, this would be the item to order.

A decent meal. Nothing exceptional.

I weighted more than 5 minutes in the front of the house waiting for somebody to see us, but nobody showed. At least two servers saw us, and still nobody showed. This was at 1:00 in the afternoon, the day after Christmas. It was not bustling, but it didn't look like it was operating very well I'm not sure when I will try again.
