“This was my 1st visit, but definitely not my last. My parents have been there many times. First big notice is the Staff!!! I have never seen a restaurant where every server, food runner and staff worked as a great team!! To be welcomed by several staff, food arrived in great time, hot. and fantastic. Every person passing your table would ask how you are,how is everything and it truly is a group effort to 100% focus on the patrons!! I felt very special and appreciated. we ordered the zucchini strips and shared the large fish sandwich dinner. WOW! Wow! Well over a pound of fresh fish and two sides!! Outstanding just like the service and the staff. Kudos to management and staff, as you could see the great working team and how all patrons were exceptionally taken care of! You gained another life long patron.“

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!“

“best breakfast in the area hands down and super friendly staff“

“We went this morning to eat some brunch and celebrate after my daughter Arya got a 2nd chance in life (transplant). After Alexa (our waitress) heard about our story, management came to us and said everything was on them. Definitely filled us with joy with such a kind act. Can’t wait to go again after this beautiful experience!! Look at the customer #PrayforArya!!!“

“We were there on Saturday at 4pm. Parking lot already had at least 1/2 dozen cars. Did not have reservation so decided to eat at bar. I have never eaten at bar seating before so I wasn’t sure if I would like it. Let me tell you, it was so enjoyable! The bar was completely full within 15 minutes and the bartender was awesome. She was so friendly and competent. Complete pro!! No one was ever waiting for anything! Food was delicious. I will definitely sit at this bar and eat anytime.“

“Try the Chicken parm family meal deal .. you won't be disappointed!!“

“We were looking for a place to host a surprise birthday party. Hills was very affordable and the whole process was pretty stress free. The food was good and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. We would definitely use Hills again for any event. Thank you to Hills and the staff for everything.“

“Was here this past Saturday for a private gathering on the second floor. Did was very good, it was presented buffet style. Only negative I had was entrance was from the one side of the restaurant up a rather steep flight of stairs. I was curious what they did in the winter time to prevent people from slipping on the stairs and the rational of this as apposed to having a stairway from inside the restaurant. Other than that like I said the food was very good, full bar and the one waitress did a fantastic job.

Update, ate here last week for lunch and again tonight 9/19/24, I think this will be my new go to, closer to home and better menu and they are open till 11pm, the kitchen also closesat 11.“

“I been going there for some time. The food is delicious. It’s a small place with big flavor .haven’t eaten any thing bad yet. And don’t think it’s possible.“

“OH MY GOODNESS! We have been searching for a good fish sandwich/dinner that is worth ordering a second time. Not until today did we find some worthy of ordering every Friday. My husband picked up a fish and fries order and we demolished it and the bonus is it is within walking distance of our shop (Collin’s Corner).“

“The white pizza is amazing and Italian hoagies are the best so filling“

“this has become my wife and I's favorite Italian restaurant in the South Hills. portions are huge. Food is absolutely delicious. Quick warning though if you order the stuffed hot peppers they will be HOT. They're absolutely delicious though!“

“Very good pizza. Never disappointed.“

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

“Thank you for delivering to our house on redds mill rd… we are spreading the word… we will be ordering more pizza from you.. thank you for dinner“

“Definitely do not come here for the atmosphere or the cleanliness. It hasn't seen a sanitizer since 1980. Literally. It was pretty bad. BUT....we committed to staying because someone gave the food a 5 stars review...and I see why. It was hands down the best breakfast I've had. Every part of that meal was a 5. Only the food, the coffee was awful, so not the beverages, just the food. I was in total shock. That cook needs a raise! Also,it's a shame, someone needs to clean this place up, and give the dining area a face lift. Because, the food their serving deserves to be served on a nice plate, and put on a clean, bought this century, booth. It also smells real bad, they need to open up the windows and let some fresh air in there.“

“I just had my dinner. i ordered fish and pierogies I didn't get to eat right away. It was still delicious after heating it up !! thanks to the cook and the people taking orders on 03-29-21“

“Good food..but was charged $1 for 1 thin slice of tomato on my hamburger..75 for a small piece of lettuce. ..My wife charged $1 for a slice of tomato on her grilled cheese.. We won't be eating there again. Oh, don't use your charge card..there is a surcharge for using it...and they don't tell you until you are checking out.“

“This place has quickly become our go-to Chinese take out. The food is awesome with great portions - we can’t stop eating the pad Thai! And the sushi is awesome. I was so impressed that the actually packed the sushi in ice to keep it safe and fresh for us while we brought it home!“

“I always came here with my mum growing up . This is what baked goods should taste like, not like the store bought bakery.

Since moving back to the South Hills, I'm definitely a return customer!!
Thank you, Dave's Terrace Bakery, for generations of treats.“

“Absolutely delicious. Good sized portion. The batter on the fish sandwich was perfectly crispy. Great seasoning on the fries. Will definitely be back.“

“Always a blast!!! Feels like hanging out at a friend’s place.“

“The beer selection is top notch and the food is solid with friendly service. We are lucky to have this in the south hills. I recommend the wings and pizza cooked in their wood fired pizza oven. The wine is always fresh as it is on tap vs a wine bottle. Live entertainment and dog friendly on Tuesday nights on the outside patio when the weather cooperates.“

“We had an amazing experience this evening! The feast of the seven fishes! It was incredible the owner and chef, Ben Bartilson did an incredible job. Our server Jami was the best!“

“The pad thainoodle with shrimi was pretty good. I like that you can customize the heat level and I like it at a 4. However the meatball pho, the meatballs were a little dense and the broth didn't have that depth of flavor, it was missing roasted ginger, onion and star anise and a few dashes of fish sauce. But it was a good size bowl of noodles. I will most definitely go back to order the papaya salad and try their Tom yum soup or fried rices. The owner seemed very nice.“

“I went to Little Bamboo for the first time today for lunch. I ordered he General Tsao lunch special with fried rice and egg drop soup. I also went with the hot tea because every now and then I crave it even tho I don't normally like unsweetened tea. Everything was delicious. I especially liked the way the batter on the chicken was crispier than I'm used to. It was nice touch.“

“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.“

“Had a wonderful anniversary dinner with my husband Saturday night. The meat was cooked perfectly and delicious. The staff was extremely friendly and fun to converse with as we sat at the bar as we like to do. Thanks for a wonderful evening.“

“I love their pizza! The thin crust and large slices are a hit in our household. Always delicious, and passes the picky-pizza-eater kiddo test.“

“Restaurant: PLEASE clean the inside of the restaurant. The front desk and seating area with the flowers is soooo dirty. When I went to pick up the food I almost turned around. So dusty and just gross. Honestly it’s the first impression you make. Please just clean it up. I tables looked clean. The floors were fine. But the front area was awful.

Food & Service: The food is great. Egg rolls are amazing. I’m so mad I didn’t get the crab Rangoons now. I know they would have been great. I will say the chicken is a little more fried than I would like. Super crispy and tastes fresh. I don’t like my sesame chicken super fried. But the next day it’s so good. Service was fast. The kids were kind, I didn’t see the adults. They gave my kids some Easter candy which was really cute.“

“Wonderful tasting super yummy steak hoagie! Great tasting pepperoni pizza and white pizza!! Breadsticks are great, and the customer service was super friendly??Highly recommended!!The picture of the half eaten is because it was so good I forgot to take a picture before hand?“

“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“

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

“This has been my mother's favorite place for hoagies ever since they opened. I've always enjoyed the food whenever she brought me here for lunch. The portions are HUGE and the prices are very reasonable. I brought my wife here on our road trip through PA this summer, and she claims that she'll likely have dreams about the chicken bacon ranch hoagie from here until we return again.“

“A classic local area diner. Usually decent food. I wish that they switched back to all iceberg lettuce instead of mixed greens for their salads, or at least give people the option of all iceberg. Their ranch is always great, and theres lots of fried appetizer options.“

“So, Red Lobster in Pleasant Hills was clean and had a menu with many options. I chose the shrimp skewers and added a scallop one. They were tasty. I added a side of Brussel sprouts. They were delicious. The biscuits were good. The baked potato was done well. All of the staff were friendly . It’s worth a return visit to try the Salmon Bowl or maybe the flounder.“

“I order delivery ,usually get the big daddy it’s not an authentic Italian pizza but a good and consistent American pizza ,I have never been dissatisfied with my order fast ,friendly and hot .The Big Daddy is great when we have family over and don’t feel like cooking.In the food business consistency is the key!!!“

“Great staff & delicious food“

“Jaime ,my baby the best bartender in the city, bet!. Try her drinks,not her you bums,she all mine,I'm hers..💯“

“I have been to Mama Pepino's in Glassport several times. Great place!!! I've been there with 20+ other members of my family and they took great care of us!!! But I made the mistake of ordering delivery yesterday. The delivery guy was the sorriest excuse for a human being I have ever met!!! He needs to stay in the restaurant!!! He was not a good ambassador for the business!!! He did nothing but complain when he got here!!! Not a pleasant person. He gave me the wrong order and had to come back to exchange the orders!!! I felt sorry a 350+ lb. person had to climb my steps a second time!!! I gave him a $13 tip. Should have been 13 cents!!!“
