“Great food and atmosphere“

“Had to give The Lab five stars due to the absolutely out of this world food! My husband and I travel all over the country, mainly seeking out destination restaurants and let me tell you the food here is on par with that of the some most prestigious places across the country. My husband said he would rate the ribeye in his top five EVER! Other dishes are creative and delicious as well. Very cool atmosphere, makes you forget you are in Washington while you are dining. I will mention service could have been much more polished to match the food and ambiance. The majority of our question about the dishes where met with an “I’m not sure” from our server. Not really acceptable to not know the menu frontward and backwards when trying to deliver a fine dining experience. However the quality of the food and cocktails helped us over look the lack luster service. So ecstatic that this restaurant is in our neighborhood. Blows away ANYTHING Pittsburgh has to offer! We will return soon!“

“If you are looking to get the sense of the local vibe of a neighborhood, this is just the place. I was in the town of Hickory, PA, for a play just a mile or so down the road, and you can tell by the sign outside that this spot has been part of the fabric of the town for quite some time.

There are a few parking spots directly next to the restaurant, but more likely you are going to park in the large parking lot across the street; just be careful as cars are coming quickly as you cross as this is Route 50, a major highway. It’s cozy and quaint inside, with interesting wall decorations and a rustic old fireplace. There are a couple of videogame machines, and I read that they even have trivia nights here. Tables are very close together, some with chairs and some with cozy round bench seating, which occasionally makes it a bit awkward as you find yourself looking directly at your neighbors and overhearing their conversations a bit more than you might like. However, this also kind of adds to the neighborly vibe. There’s also a full bar area which was quite busy.

Service is incredibly sweet, helpful and efficient! My server was quick to provide recommendations and was always spot-on. The burgers and quesadillas are big sellers here, and both were great choices. We didn’t try the wings, although those seem to be big sellers as well. I was surprised by how many things are housemade, from the bleu cheese and ranch dressings to the potato chips. The food here is solid and it’s clear the team takes a lot of pride in providing high-quality items and a good experience.

This is also conveniently located to Star Lake, and the quality makes it not surprising it’s stood the test of time as a neighborhood institution. It’s good pub food with great service and a solid pick in this area.“

“Clean, great vibes, ricky is an awesome bartender. food is on point, what else could you ask for?“

“Excellent food, Excellent service, Excellent prices“

“Bartenders are friendly, beer is cold, juke box happily eats money and belts out tunes, what more could ya ask for?Depending on the time of the day/night, one of Uptown Washington's derelicts might be there, but they typically keep to themselves. Jose's is everything you crave in a hometown bar. Plenty of TVs, great selection of bottled and draught beers, great service and they don't charge "Pittsburgh prices" in their booze.“

“Great food and drinks. Nice that we don't have to drive too far for a nice night out. Prices are much more reasonable than many restaurants.“

“What a special place to celebrate our anniversary! Not only was the food delicious and reasonably priced, we had wonderful service. We were surprised by a handmade anniversary card from the staff and a complimentary dessert. The Juniper Grill is definitely on our list to return to!“

“Great food. Great service we will definitely go back“

“I like and enjoy the last call , the waitress I get EVERYTIME I'm there is amazing!!!!! she has the best work ethic and is very welcoming. the only problem I've ever had at last call was the buffalo chicken dip didn't have much chicken but other than that everything was super tasty and we had an amazing time . I will continue to eat here :)“

“Everything-the atmosphere, service, food-ambiance - a perfect place to chill & relax!“

“We visited Jackson's last week. We were introduced to our server, the hostess informed us she was new. Boy, was she fantastic! The food was an A+. We had soup of the day and Salmon, which was cooked perfectly. Our server was Bonnie Lynn and we will ask to be set in her section next time. She never quit smiling.“

“Such a great flea market to go to if you’re looking for good deals. The people running the place are very good people !!“

“Although I haven’t drank here,I deliver their beer to here. The people are always very nice,the bar is always clean, especially the bathroom, insure the womens is clean but I can’t speak with experience of being in there. Lol When me and my wife do go out on one of our weekend “dates” ,we’ll definitely stop here,because it seems like a very nice place to stop and have a couple of the beers Ive delivered.“

“just a great time during the day“

“It's a nice little hole in the wall. But the bartenders are AWESOME ����“

“We are always looking forward to an night at the Parlay Lounge. The food, drinks, music, and atmosphere is wonderful! 🎼🍸💃🏻🕺🏽“

“Love, love the bartender Vicki. She is hilarious and very prompt with drinks. Clean bar. Good times.“

“Kylie was excellent!! Knows a lot about the menu!!“

“We visited Grand Slam Lounge in Peters Township on a Steeler Sunday afternoon and stepped into a nostalgic world of warm hospitality, hearty eats, and enjoyable cocktails. This local gem offers a ‘down home’ dining experience, where friendly faces and familiar flavors come together. Indulge in their juicy broasted chicken and meaty burger with fries, or sip on festive holiday martinis that will transport you to a seasonal wonderland. With its charm and inviting atmosphere, Grand Slam is a great place to gather and create fun memories.“
