“Chewy, light and locally sourced, the bagel sandwich, with a perfect crunch from the gold-standard fried egg and crisp bacon, isn’t greasy or heavy but still packs incredible flavor. I got it on the everything bagel, and I might add some more cheese if I want it extra gooey next time, but it’s probably the proper amount. The iced coffee was lightly iced and I didn’t even have to specify (that’s my Dunkin’ hack, less ice since they love that bartender trick). It wasn’t too sweet and the unique house flavors pose some tough counter decisions; the praline was nutty and caramelly, with just the right amount of cinnamon. There’s table service when possible, but it can get busy so keeping your head up helps everyone. Jess and Kiersten keep a cozy and easy-to-do-work vibe inside, as the cafe doubled as my office last week. The sensibly relevant wifi password, easily explained, is also a huge flex these days. Whether you wanna settle in, or just stop by for a quick bite, this spot is versatile, open till 2 and offers one of the best breakfast sandwiches around. Well done!”

“Sugar craze is the best place i go their every time its open and buy whatever i can its so good i think you all would enjoy it to.”

“My son kept telling me he wanted us to try this restaurant as he lives in the area and he goes there often. It was a hike for us, but we decided to go try it out. There were 6 of us there, and everyone enjoyed their food, but I will speak to what we ordered. My son insisted we try the pizza as an appetizer. I am not really into pizza when I go out to a restaurant, so I was hesitant. When it came out, it was huge. I loved that it was very crisp on the bottom and it was not overloaded with sauce. It didn't have the typical cheese that slides off the pizza when you order it. The owner, Chris, came to check on us to see how we liked it. I thought it was fantastic, but there are a limited number made during the evening so I think you have to get there early. My daughter and I shared the bang bang cauliflower and that was very tasty. There was a lot of it so we ended up taking some of that home. The other appetizer we had were the soul scallops. We all thought this was an amazing appetizer and I loved the combination with the cornbread. We each had a salad before dinner and I personally like the spring mix with tomatoes. It wasn't an overly large salad, but it was a salad was what is was supposed to be: a precursor to dinner. With the portion sizes of the appetizers and the food, we actually ended up taking some of the salad home. My son got the Italian Chicken and Waffles, which was huge. I was give a taste of that and while it was a combination that I did not think would work, it was very good and a creative recipe. My husband had the Surf and Turf Fricassee and he is still talking about that almost a week later. It was a very nice dish and his steak came out the way he asked. He is frequently disappointed when he goes out to eat in other restaurants and is disappointed by how often the steak is overcooked. I had the Alfredo Bay, which again, was a large portion that I ended up taking home and finishing the next day. I was worried that it was going to be a bit too spicy with the Old Bay, but I liked the combination of ingredients so I thought I would give it a try. You can taste the kick, but it wasn't overwhelming thankfully. When talking to the owner, he said that the only dessert they were out of was the Tiramisu (which is one of my favorite desserts). His mom personally makes it so it tends to sell out. Chris.....tell your mother to make more (just kidding). The staff that we interacted with were very personable and friendly. While this was a little over an hour from home, we will definitely be back the next time we are visiting our son!”

“great service wonderful people and home cooked meals you will love”

“The food is great, the prices are decent, and the service is okay. I've heard rumors they don't clean there dishes well, but I've never gotten sick. The steak on a stick dinner and French onion soup are standouts.”

“In the old days of the NEPA, there were bars on almost every block, and most of them were in houses either in a redone front room or the other side of the double. Like a step back in time, this is an artifact of the past✨”

“Christine and her staff are amazing! Great food and service!”

“Pizza was great! I thought the girl at the counter was very polite. The inside was comfortable, clean and roomy enough to meet my usual sized crew of 4 to 5 people. Will definitely return.”

“I would recommend fat Daddy's very much so great atmosphere reasonably priced but where the hell is the food for the past 26 weeks we've been promised”

“I went through the drive-thru and the order was fast and hot and the employee was very friendly. He took the time to explain that my napkins and nugget sauce were on the bottom of the bag.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Jada at Flamin Crab! From the moment we were seated, she was welcoming, friendly, and genuinely attentive. She took the time to explain the menu, answer all of our questions, and even offered great recommendations based on our preferences. Throughout the meal, she checked in to make sure everything was perfect without being intrusive, and she handled everything with a smile and such a positive attitude. Jada really went above and beyond to make our dining experience enjoyable, and her professionalism and warmth made the meal feel extra special. Service like hers is rare and truly makes you want to come back again and again. Thank you, Jada, for going out of your way to make our visit memorable!”

“Mission BBQ catered our wedding, and we truly cannot recommend them highly enough! The food was absolutely amazing—delicious, fresh, and a total hit with all of our guests—but what really set them apart was their exceptional service. The team went above and beyond to make our day special. They prepared custom plates just for me and my husband, packaged up all the leftovers, and even left us a thoughtfully packed meal for the end of the night. Every detail was handled with such care and consideration, and it made the entire experience feel seamless and stress-free. Mission BBQ brought not only incredible food but also warmth, professionalism, and genuine hospitality. We’re so grateful for their role in our big day—it wouldn’t have been the same without them!”

“Skipped breakfast so I was halfway looking for a brunchy option when I stumbled into El Tikal. With a quality lunch special section, plus your everyday Mexican favorites and a great variety of meat, seafood and veggie dishes, I had a hard time deciding. I'm usually a combo order kind of guy, but I had to throw together my own little lunch variety pack, add Santa Fe (breakfast) burrito. Plantains always hit for me, but these were extra caramelized and gooey so I had to portion them out between the beginning and end of the meal. The mole sauce on the chili relleno was smokey and not as spicy, but really well-balanced. The tamale with red sauce seemed less flavorful than the other dishes, but I'm no tamale expert and I've been hanging out with a lot of Italians recently. The Santa Fe burrito was out of this world: the eggs, nice and crumbly with tons of seasoning and flavor, the cheese-covered chorizo oozing into each bite. I need this again, and I'm sure there's so many other incredible things on the menu to explore, but this is truly a hearty and unique item worth coming back for.”

“Recently visited Bennys with a large group for my dads 60th birthday! Service was great, food was great! Highly recommend!”

“The absolute BEST footlong hot dogs!!!! The people there are so nice, too...”

“On a busy night definitely expect to wait a little bit, but let me tell you it is worth it. The chimi was fantastic plenty of flavor. The Colombian salchipapa was ok, chicken was a bit dry but the sauce and the condiments compensated everything else well. The chimi is what will make me go back. 10/10”

“😍Everyone loves a good bakery and Sanitary Bakery hits the nail on the head as the best in the area.Everyone who works there,as far as I'm concerned,has earned celebrity status.Enough said.”

“I almost didn't go. A bowling alley? I was sent for pizza by three people in 3 towns. Spare time pizza is not hype. I got a spicy Hawaiian (pepperoni and pineapple, I know It's weird). Before the pizza arrived some waitress wandered by with some wings and I thought what the he'll, I'll probably never be back.
Pizza arrived piping hot,and I loaded it up with parm and Italian spices provided then just a bit of red flakes to see if it would be good spicy too. The wings showed up and I can't believe I ate the whole thing. Fantastic food, hot wings without a hint of vinegar in the sauce and pizza that would have been enough by itself. Loved the hole in the wall atmosphere and got out of there for under 25. Try it, best bowling experience ever.”

“great food in a few years im gonna work there”

“Nicely decorated and comfortable. Some of the best pizza and baked goods I’ve ever had. 👍💯”

“The BEST PIZZA! Wing pizza with blue cheese/pizza cheese/wing sauce and their famous red sauce! It’s just awesome! It hits the sweet side and a bit of spice !! Just too good! There’s no pizza that comes close! Yummy! Along with any other pizza with toppings! Win win !”
