We were able to choose 2-3 entrees fir guests to choose from. Service was excellent and the food was amazing. This was the perfect restaurant for our celebration! Thank you so much!“

“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!“

“Kim, Rus, and the entire staff, Robert and I cant thank you all enough! You gave us the perfect wedding day with your professionalism, special touches, and just working with me and my family, etc. We were truly blessed to find you guys and we cannot thank you enough or express just how special you made our day! Thanks again !“

“Our first time going to Big E’s and we were not disappointed!!! The staff and owner were so friendly and accommodating. The food was so fresh and filling. We will be back with our family and friends very soon!“

“Food was good. Waiter was friendly! Would definitely go back!“

“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 ???“

“If you love beer and especially if you want to try some of the best brews in the greater Pittsburgh area, definitely make the trek - it's worth it. Can't wait to come back and enjoy these fantastic beers & take in some of the surrounding nature trails.“

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

“Great Food, friendly service at a reasonable price. Thank you Keep up the great work !“

“My mom and I ate here this evening and the food was delicious. We also had the homemade cherry pie for dessert. The best part about our visit was our waitress Sandy. She was the sweetest and nicest. Definitely recommend.“

“Love this local place. Great "bar" food. Wings are the best anywhere. And the buff chick dip is yummy too. Only thing that affects negatively is when the door to the bar (smoking) area is left open or opened frequently because that smell comes through dining area. But still love this place. Always friendly and it's local ❤️“

“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“

“We order take-out at least once a month and never had a bad experience! Our go to for pick up when we don't want to cook but still want homemade great food! We have tried quite a few different meals & sides and everything has always hit the spot.“

“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.“

“Outstanding food and the ambiance takes you back to a wonderful point in time! Owners, staff and patrons are very friendly! The hotel has an excellent cook and the entire place is run in a professional manner! It takes me back to when Sunday dinners were a key part of the blessed sabbath! Rating 100!“

“We always enjoy an evening at Gil’s. Friendly waitstaff. Good food. The Mediterranean Chicken was great!!! And of course the hopper!“

“I've eaten here a couple of times now for lunch. Regardless of which staff member I was assigned to, they have all been courteous, professional, and friendly. This is a little more upscale than your typical lunch spot, and that's kind of why I like it.
Pictured was a special they were having the other day. Potatoes, meat loaf, covered in a gravy. Onion slivers accompanied the gravy to bring it all together. You can't see the meatloaf due to gravy, but it was in there, and it was delicious!
If you're in the area, definitely try this place out. You're going to spend a little more coin, but the quality of food is there for the price. Oh and they are closed on Mondays, just an FYI“

Wheelchair accessibility: The accessible parking was blocked!“

“Yesterday on July 9th we held a Retirement Party for 120 guests at the Rock Run Inn in Elizabeth, Pa. to honor our Priest Father Bruce Sleczkowski for 51 years in the priesthood. Early planning with HelenBergman was a joy!! She was very helpful, eager to please and accommodate us in any way possible. The food was outstanding, hot and delicious!! The buffet was refilled quickly and efficiently. The wait staff on a scale of 1-10 deserved a 100 +. From the moment we arrived they were so eager to assist us in placing the programs at the tables, setting up our floral arrangements and getting whatever we needed! To Byron, Dalaney, Angie, Jake and Tyler ….you were so professional yet down to earth! Kudos to each and everyone listed above for a job well done!! If you are looking for a place to have an event consider the Rock Run Inn. You won’t regret it!!!“

“We visited Rizzle’s Roadhouse for the first time today! It is half bar and half restaurant so we expected the typical bar food. WHAT A SURPRISE! THE FOOD WAS EXCELLENT!

Everyone left very happy with both the food and service.

Great Job !“

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.
