“Bone-in Pork Chop with Broccoli Rabe and Roasted White Potatoes. What you see most is the Carolina Gold BBQ sauce. Presentation made it hard to eat without some hint of the sauce. For me, the sauce was too close to out of the jar yellow mustard. I would have liked more char on the pork chop and less on the Broccoli leaf, which basically tasted like ash. The chop and the vegetables were underseasoned. At least the pork chop was cooked to a good medium. This was the off-menu special. I like the concept, but the gold overpowered everything on this plate.

My wait staff was awesome. Very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. Also, quick to refill the cup. They were very attentive to the needs of all of the tables around me. Seating is available inside and out. Although the outside seating will require you to listen to the highway traffic.

There is a great balance of wine and beers, and they offer seasonal cocktails.

I'd return to maybe try a restaurant staple rather than specials.“

“Definitely worth a trip if your in the area!“

“Ate dinner there about a week ago. Food was good but their telephone rang at top volume the entire time we were there making it difficult to talk or enjoy our meal. Complained to waitress who said it had to be that way so they could hear in the back for take out orders. The restaurant was far from busy for in house dining so I guess the owner doesn't care about us; only the take out customers! I have eaten here for years and tried to support them during covid but never again.“

“The goat cheese & artichoke poppers were the first truly unique taste I have experienced in years. Our waitress Wendy was very thoughtful and proactive in helping my wife navigate the menu with her food allergies. The burger meat is a combination of brisket, chuck, and sirloin. I am a very picky burger eater and even grow my own grass fed grass finished meat so when I say their burger is amazing, their burger is AMAZING. 11/10, cannot recommend enough. We will be back!!“

“I got a burger and it was really good but I felt the portion size was small. Despite the size it was filling. I am not one to jump to conclusions... but like 2 hours after eating I had to make a few "Business" Trips to 2nd avenue for "water" leaks.

I did not get the salad bar because it looked... old and lacking. Also kinda overpriced... Best way to describe it is to simply take a salad and leave it out on a table for 4-5 hours. I did go during a slow time so if you go when it is busy it will probably be fresher. Also the salad by is right near the entrance where almost all foot traffic goes... kinda sketchy health wise in my book. Salad Dressings are in a bowl where you scoop it out... kinda sketchy in my book as well... would be better to have pour bottles.

Service was decent, my only complaint is that the some staff were not obvious as they appeared to not be wearing the uniform. When we entered there was no one at the front desk and the person who came up and sat my party had a normal sweatshirt. I am not complaining the staff was not at the desk to greet us, just that when they came to the desk it was a bit confusing like are we being guided to a table by a customer. Maybe give staff Ruby Tuesday Sweatshirts as I understand wearing a regular sweatshirt if you are cold.

It is quite obvious that the main goal of the restaurant is alcohol as the menu makes several references to alcohol. I felt the static (Specials) table menu was a bit to big and took up table space and hit table condiments (salt and pepper)... and complex (was like an entire menu 3-5 pages).

The general menu was also a bit complicated to go through as burgers were on three pages. Pictures were good and what you saw is what you got.

Overall I would rather go to a Red Robin where the portions are a bit bigger and you get endless salad/fries.“

“I visited the Lemoyne Diner after an overnight stay nearby, and I was very happy with my experience. I enjoyed the "Breakfast Garbage" (their version of the breakfast 'mess' that I enjoyed in other eateries), and it was tasty and enjoyable. The coffee was good, and the server was attentive and took care of everything in a timely fashion. I enjoyed my first visit, and it won't be my last!“

“My family took me here for my birthday lunch. We all enjoyed our lunch: French dip with fries, grilled roast beef, Pittsburgh salad, and burger with sweet potato fries. Their desserts were divine: chocolate cake with peanut butter icing, chocolate raspberry cheesecake and an eclair. Would definitely recommend if you are in the area. The total cost (before tip) was $173. Note: cost includes 4 sodas and one alcoholic drink.“

“We had dinner today and could not me more pleased with our server Ella. She was very personable and professional. Had great confidence for someone the job for only about a month. She took her time with us, responding to our questions and needs. I rerely do this but was so impressed that I found the manager and told her how impressed I was with Ella.“

“DJ’s Smoke shack prepared the food for my mother-in-law‘s 100th birthday party celebration. There were 51 attending, and everyone raved about the food. The price was half what I was quoted from Dickies’ Barbecue. We were provided a large container to keep all the food hot until we served it. There was plenty of food for everyone and leftovers to split among families. We had barbecued chicken, pulled pork, three sauces, rolls, baked beans, and macaroni and cheese which tasted just like homemade. I will definitely use this business for parties again.“
