50 Best American Restaurants near Penn Hills

“It took a while to get my food order because I ordered fish and it is lenten season. It was worth the wait! The fried Swai and waffle fries combo was all that! The food was still hot when it arrived!
Next time I will order a bit earlier but definitely order again!“

“the employees are awesome“

“For six years I have been looking for a new favorite restaurant in Pittsburgh since my old favorite one closed. I have never found a place that had the perfect food and atmosphere I was looking for until I entered Lilith last night. Everything about this restaurant is phenomenal. The service from being greeted to the absolutely awesome server we had was excellent! The food had a wow factor rarely found in Pittsburgh. I’m not usually a huge fan of how vegetables are cooked most places and the veggies in my dish just blew things out of the water. You could tell they were fresh and local too. The fish I had was just amazing. It was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. Needless to say I will be back again and again now to experience more culinary delights!“

“Best Meatloaf I ever had in my life.. Food was incredible but it took a long time.“

“First time to eat at Rudy’s Table, and would definitely come back. Gnocchi Soup was delicious & Chicken Marsala with mashed potatoes was also very good. Very nice service, definitely recommend this restaurant.“

“Friendly staff and nice spot. Saw Citizen Soldier and the place was clean as well as easy to get to right off the highway 🙂 There's ample meter parking dlong the strip it's on but there's also a few lots where the businesses are closed. I noticed a lot of ppl parking there“

“We thoroughly enjoyed Feast’s New Year’s Eve dinner. Amazing food, creative menu, well paced, so much fun. And they sent us home with palmiers for breakfast!“

“Great service - Great food“

“Where can I begin… the food was delicious! Friendly service and real conversation. My family and I are from Indiana visiting for the weekend and we wanted to try Grandma B’s. Went on Saturday morning and it was so impressive we said “We’re coming back tomorrow before we leave!” Only to return Sunday morning and they had standing room only! Sadly my party and I were just going to head back to Indiana, hungry when they called us back in and said”We’re going to make room for you all up top.” They proceeded to prepare another area upstairs to accommodate our party! Hands down best food in service in Pittsburgh!“

“We went to G’s for our anniversary and it was an absolutely delightful experience. Great quiet and cozy atmosphere, stellar service, and incredible food and drinks. Every dish was full of flavor and the textures were all beautifully done. Even the bread basket was amazing with maple butter. It felt like a 5 star dining experience for a reasonable person. Excited to go back again soon.“

“Great tasting hot dogs, pizza, etc.
They've got a nice selection of beers and you can buy from the walk-in beer fridge to take home.
Nice specials, including exotic toppings for hot dogs. (Seattle dog; chili with onions, cheese, bacon; Mexican inspired...)“

“Great food and wait staff!“

“I could write a novel on how perfect Justin and his team created our winter wedding vision. From the first interactions to the last interactions, Justin was attentive and helpful. We collaborated on everything in such a professional way that everything truly turned out perfectly. Every single detail was astonishing. Justin and his event center was able to accommodate over 110 guests for our wedding and the FOOD…oh my goodness - delicious! I’d highly recommend this space for bridal showers, receptions, events, you name it! What a wonderful experience and a wedding reception friends and family are still talking about thanks to Just in Thyme!“

“food fantastic . waitstaff lovely.“

“Big portions, home cooked food. We go once every few months and I've never had a meal I didn't like. The French onion soup and the pecan balls are my favorites. Their pizza crust is probably the only thing I avoid; it's not bad, but it's not good.“

“Excellent service and helps you with a smile. I get a lot of takeout and she is very courteous too. Love the food and the restaurant is always clean. Sydney is a real asset for eatnpark“

“Oh boy I can't write a good enough review for here. My grandfather took me here as a kid and I always liked it. I got older and began to love it. I was able to get my dad, daughter, wife and brother to all come for breakfast and it was fantastic. Cash only, but it's always very affordable, timely and tasty. Bre, the waitress is the best.“

“I will definitely be coming back. The vibe was great and so was the service!!“

“The shrimp with house made cavatelli is to die for!!!! Can’t wait to come back.“

“Pearl was outstanding and very accommodating. Definitely a great asset to the establishment.“

“Excellent food, great service!“

“Jody B's has been a family favorite for years now. It's a reminder of what great restaurants were like years ago. I take my mother there as often as possible. She's quite elderly now and the staff is always very patient and accommodating. We appreciate them hope to continue dining there for years to come.“

“had lunch dec. 13th all 4 of us had a good time thanks to our waitress terry, food was fantastic“

“My mom donated her liver, and some friends gave us an $100 apple bees gift card. Let me tell you, that was the best week of my life, eating apple bees for dinner. I don’t even remember what I got but it was the best. 5 out of 5, 10 out of 10, would donate moms liver again just to eat here more“

“Love the food. Had the chicken Parmesan half hoagie last night with fries. I get a side of their hot sauce to dip my fries in. It is very spicy and most people probably can’t handle it but it is one of my favorite sauces and I always get it for tenders or fries.

Bri is the best bartender, Gwyn is a close 2nd and the owners are so friendly. Love it!“

“Had a great sandwich today at Nova Cafe. Was my first but definitely will not be my last, and the friendly atmosphere made my lunch even better.“

“I'd heard great things about Hubx, but today was my first visit and what a pleasant experience it was! Their philly cheese steak was delicious and the owners are friendly, genuinely interested in the customer's enjoyment and satisfaction, and are very interesting people. Will definitely return.“

“Wonderful food and great atmosphere“

“We get take out from here every few weeks and it's always delicious. The order is exactly right and ready when promised. The sweet slaw is excellent. Burgers, pulled pork/chicken/brisket all yummy. Recommend!!“

“We are from out of town and ate here from a recommendation and were not disappointed, except for the hash browns containing 5 lbs of grease. I did not trust my stomach to handle it, but everything else, eggs, toast, bacon, pancakes, etc were absolutely delicious.“

“Great people and great food“

“The chicken wings are great and their salads are the best. The house dressing is unmatched. Great customer service as well. Had a small issue one time (a miscommunication when ordering over the phone) and they more than made up for it. They earned bonus points in my book for that.“

“Inndigo Blue is a nice restaurant. The menu is somewhat limited, but the food was excellent. I had a cup of French onion soup and a chef's salad, both of which were quite good. My server (Kimberly) was helpful and very pleasant. She was appropriately attentive to my needs without being in any way intrusive. I live about 4 hours away and was here on business staying at the Comfort Inn (attached). I don't know when/if business will take me to this same address again, but for a simple, tasty dinner, Inndigo Blue is a winner. Thanks!!“

“Rocky’s had a Friday night buffet of Polish food, and the selection and quality of the food was first rate! We just happened to see the flier on Facebook so we decided to check it out. It was our first time here. I finished my meal with a retro banana pudding with Nila wafers and cream. Delicious nostalgia! The buffet had several kid-friendly options, so at $14 a person, this would be a great place to bring the family on Friday night. Next Friday’s theme is Italian night, and I can’t wait to try Mary Anne’s dishes. She is amazing!“

“Not from the area, and my husband and I stopped in for one beer. Four hours later we left after having good service, cold beer, good conversations and the best nachos I’ve had.“

“Absolutely delicious! Everything from the cocktails to the food and atmosphere is perfect!“

“So, the novelty of New Amsterdam was their iconic rooftop bar in the heart of Lawrenceville. However, they have since added a roof and enclosed that rooftop bar, and it's just not the same anymore. Perhaps it's only temporary, and they'll take it down in the spring? I don't know.“

“Was in a real predicament when caterer for daughters wedding did not show up, these folks did not hesitate when I called to provide me as much as they could quickly. The chicken was delicious, the guests said they were glad the other place did not show up😁they truly helped me salvage the night. Class act and awesome food.“

“My server Jenah was awesome very attentive, upbeat personality. Made sure we were satisfied throughout the whole experience would request her next time we visit.“

“Very nice resteraunt to get a snack and drinks. The prices were reasonable and there are plenty of seats to eat or take with you. The food was hot and fresh. No problems with the food, the service was good. There were several schools there, so kinda hectic, but other than that, it was very good, and it's right when you enter the zoo.

Kid-friendliness: Lots of room for kids to sit and run around.“

“best place 2 b had fun with u Brooooooo“

“I ordered via Uber Eats. I had a question about the menu so I called the restaurant but they did not answer. I was surprised when they called me back ...when does that ever happen?! My order arrived exactly as I ordered it and they didn't miss any of the sides. They have a huge selection of desserts and I got the sweet potato pie, it tastes like my 95 yr old grandma from Tennessee made it! Get the homemade healthy green tea drink, you won't be disappointed! The portions are huge... but I'm most impressed with the more flavorable twist on traditional hibachi. ❤ keep it up. I found a new spot!!“

“We reviewed Hello Bistro in Beachwood OH, well JRK did because Joe was too busy "working"...... Tried the Tex Mex burger – looked great, but it was tiny and bland. I was expecting flavor fireworks, but it was more like a flavor fizzle. The avocado was the highlight though! The fries were fresh and tasty, and the house-made ranch? Chef’s kiss. As for the chocolate chip cookie… I thought it was fresh, but it was more like a sad, store-bought rock. Tex Mex Burger 5.5 Hand cut fries 6.1 House Made Ranch 8.2 Chocolate Chip Cookie 2.0“

“Great place to play Buzz Worthy Pub Trivia! Thanks to the co-sponsors, the Hop Farm craft brewery! And congratulations to our top teams — Eric’s Not Here, (declines photo), and Team Gilpin Hayes ~“

“Kathy was great as a waitress. food was wonderful. fish was very fresh. we will return. 5 stars.“

“This place is awesome! The staff is so nice and they went above and beyond to make our experience great! The pierogies were amazing and there are so many to choose from. We will definitely be coming back here again to try more pierogies.“

“Nestled in Burbank, Eat N Park is a phenomenal breakfast spot & is a true hidden gem! Get there early because it does get packed and for good reason! Eat N Park, an Armenian owned restaurant offers a huge breakfast with some lunch additions. This place offers dishes packed with flavor, huge portions and low prices! The omelets are amazing, the Belgian waffles, strawberry crepes fantastic & the pancakes are out of this world!!! And don’t get me started on the biscuits…hands down the best I’ve ever had! My hats off to the chef for cooking comfort food that made me feel like I was at home! The hospitality is beyond amazing! The owners are extremely welcoming and serve as well. They treat everyone as if you were dining in their home! From one Armenian Chef to another Shad Shad shunorhagal em! We will definitely see you again soon!“

“Been a regular customer here a while, they had some growing pains after the ownership change last year but the restaurant has really started to shine since their new chef started. Burgers are excellent, entrees are excellent, staff is friendly and accommodating. Always a safe bet for a good meal!“
