“Best momo 🥟 love soup(Jhol)momo.“

“Amazing food, generous portions and incredible service!“

“Food is amazing, you can taste the freshness. Very clean and fast service. would def recommend it to everyone who's at t he mall.“

“My fiancé and I stopped in after leaving the Katy Williams show and both of us ordered the mad chicken sandwich, rice and coleslaw and fries. Everything was fresh and amazing. Mad chicken has never disappointed me.

Thank you.“

“The great fast-food, nay, the greatest restaurant to ever exist. Incredible staff. Incredible family focused special events. Incredible food and out of this world quality.“

“Let’s be honest the people are the best part of Chick-fil-A. In my opinion, the food could be a little better quality, but the training here and the quality of service is second to none. A true picture of what good training and treating your employees can look like. On their fast food restaurant should take a note but they don’t.“

“I had the best food last evrything was great the food the service thank you“

“Absolutely the best Italian beef I’ve had since Chicago! Curtis and staff are always friendly and welcoming! This will always be a regular spot for me!“

“5 Stars – A Must-Visit in Carrick! Carrick just got a whole lot hotter—literally. This hot chicken spot is the perfect mix of bold flavor, crispy perfection, and neighborhood soul. Whether you go for mild or dare to dance with the extra hot, every bite packs a punch without sacrificing taste. The sides are legit (get the pickles and mac), and the house sauce is the kind of thing you dream about. What really sets this place apart, though, is the Carrick vibe—welcoming, gritty, and full of heart. It's the kind of joint that reminds you why this neighborhood is on the rise. Local flavor, both on the plate and in the air. Hot chicken in Carrick? Say less. This is the spot! 💙💛“

“Small Venezuelan place that has burgers with a Venezuelan flair. Wife and I loved our food. Super unique, nice and juicy and a bit of handful with everything they stuff in there but that’s part of the fun. Smaller place so seating is a bit tricky. Don’t let the prices scare you off you get a TON of food.“

“Food is always great at Five Guys, so no complaints here. The staff was also very friendly. We had a newborn in the parking lot and had eaten out food in the car, so we were parked outside for a while (our baby then had thrown up so we were outside of the car cleaning up and such) and because of that a staff member came out and asked if we were okay which was really nice!“

“Best fried chicken in the town“

“By far the best chicken I've ever had. Years ago I had PDQ in North Carolina and I thought that couldn't be beat. Canes is by far the best. It was so tender and the breading is minimal and the sauce is soooooooo good. Parking was horrendous but service was great.“

“The mac and cheese is delicious the wait time and service was great. The line may look long but its not it went really fast the wait time for my order was less than 6 minutes. It was my first time going through the drive thru and it was worth it.“

“I went to Chicken Fil A in Fox Chapel on Thursday and was impressed by the cleanliness of the restaurant, as well as the excellent service. The bathrooms are spotless, the dining room is spotless, and the food, as always, is delicious. By far the cleanest fast food restaurant I've ever been to.“

“one of the best food places i’ve been to PERIOD it’s baffling to me that they are just in the food court, they would do so well as a standalone place, EVERYTHING is so good here from the tacos to the sandwiches to the bowls, the yallah sauce is good, i personally love the shrimp tacos. don’t bother going in the city for a good food spot , this is it“

“Don't sleep on the burgers and puppies. The seasoning on the puppies was divine... and the fries were sooo amazing! I wanted the chicken but couldn't have it the day I ate takeout, but it was so delicious and no frills good. Classic.“

“Manager of Scott Township is wonderful! He drove part of my missing order down to me (we share the same plaza). Just wanted to express my gratitude. Thanks again for being awesome :)“

“Great food and super staff!
We came in 12•13 at 3 to get some post shopping snacks. We were greeted by a young lady named Tao who was super friendly and patient when taking our order. Her manager, whose name I did not catch but she was a taller lady with curly hair who put down her previous activity to help Tao make our food, was more than happy to chat with us while we waited and even gave us fresh turn-overs! Thanks for making a good day a great one!“

“Only go once a year...Cheat. Right across from New Balance where I go to buy SUMMER shoes every CINCO de mayo.“

“I went here this afternoon for lunch with my mom and twins. It was the most professional McDonald's I have ever been too. The employees made the food quick and the order was correct. The gentleman who walks around helping people in the dining room was great and very helpful considering my twins are a handful. This was the best McDonald's experience Ive ever had.“

“Some of the best burgers I've had, nice hotdogs as well. My partner had one of their new veggie burgers last time and she loved it.
It's nice that they always ask before adding toppings or condiments, my partner can't have mayo and some other places will just slap it on without asking.
Overall, really good food, pretty damn quick at a damn good price. Can't recommend enough.

P.S. Get their cheese and bacon fries, you'll thank me later“

“Team member Chris was our cashier today. It was extremely busy and he was kind and polite. Thank you for your good customer service!“

“Great chicken flavors!!!!“

“Family enjoyed every bite Fast, delicious & memorable“

“There are restaurants… and then there are institutions forged in the molten core of flavor itself—and Brighton Hot Dog Shoppe is not just an institution… it’s a full-blown, chili-slinging, cheese-drenched LEGEND. You walk in thinking you’re getting a hot dog. No. What you’ve actually done is step into a dimension where culinary restraint has been banished and replaced with one sacred law: “Put chili and cheese on it.” Hot dog? Chili and cheese. Fries? DROWN THEM. Burger? Absolutely disrespect it with chili and cheese. Your sense of self-control? ALSO smothered in chili and cheese. There are no rules here. No judgment. Only absolute, unapologetic excess. And the chili?? That’s not just chili. That’s a spiritual experience. That’s the kind of sauce that makes you question every other life decision that didn’t involve being within a 5-mile radius of this place. It doesn’t sit on the food—it claims territory. And then the cheese… oh the cheese… it doesn’t melt. It descends. Like some divine, golden waterfall of dairy righteousness just cascading over everything in sight like it’s fulfilling an ancient prophecy. But here’s where it gets UNHINGED… THE PRICE. I don’t know what kind of economic sorcery is happening behind that counter, but you can walk in with what feels like loose pocket lint and walk out with a tray that looks like it’s meant to feed a small militia. You check the receipt like: “Did I just rob them??” “Is this legal??” “Is someone going to stop me in the parking lot??” It’s not just affordable—it’s mythical. Like they’re operating on 1997 prices out of pure defiance of reality. Other places are out here charging luxury car payments for a sad burger and a handful of fries. Meanwhile, Brighton Hot Dog Shoppe is like: “Here’s a mountain of food, covered in chili and cheese, for the price of your dignity. Enjoy.” This isn’t a meal. This is a reckoning. You don’t eat here—you submit.“

“Taste of the juicy glistening bite of juice!! Not overly burnt just the right taste!!

One of the best burger places to quickly grab and go or either eat there! They always have friendly staff and acknowledge you! If there were any problems the managers will quickly address the problem and try to make everything right just for happy customer and raving fan! Will always come back to enjoy the food and their environment!! 🫶🖤💛🖤💛💯“

“I was hungry last night. Hungry in that way that makes you a menace to everyone and everything around you. I needed something to eat fast and I didn’t wanna make it myself – thankfully for me Bird On The Run is a couple blocks away and available on DoorDash!

I made my order and I think it was here in maybe 25 minutes? Usually that quickness comes with some kind of downside like undercooked, chicken or soggy fries. None of that to be found here.

The sandwich was massive, one of those things that you pull out of the bag and your jaw drops at the spectacle of it. I wish that I could’ve taken a picture, but I was so hungry that I devoured it without a picture even crossing my mind. I want to stress how much food you get. Huge chicken sandwich and a really large container of very well-cooked, well-seasoned fries! I ended up giving the remaining half of my fries to my husband because I couldn’t finish them all.

Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. We’re living in an era where it’s hard to feel Like you got your moneys worth when you pay for food delivery, and I feel like I got my money’s worth and then some.“

“fast friendly service good prices. clean.“

“Haven't been to this location up until today. I am a person that favors taco bell and usually do online orders to earn rewards that keep bringing me back. This location after today's order is my absolute favorite! I have never had a location actually have the meat be hot and the lettuce be a cool crisp. (Everything is usually the same temp) The textures and quality together were on point! Staff was friendly and quick with service!“

“Great burgers , fries & milkshakes“

“This was probably the best fried chicken I've ever had! We had legs and thighs, mac and cheese and fries, and dessert. Loved the seasonings on the chicken, the mac and cheese was delicious, very cheesy and creamy. Fries were great, and I'm not even a big fry person. Haven't tried the cheesecake yet. The service was good, we waited about 15 min because the the place was moderately busy and the food is done fresh. If we were local, we would eat here often! I highly recommend this place!“

“Not the speediest Taco Bell but that probably explains why my order was perfect. I got the crispy cantina taco and it's actually crispy. It's a toss up at other Taco Bells.

I'll definitely be back to this location.“

“Thank you for recognizing teachers and staff on Teacher Appreciation Day! The free pizza 🍕 is very appreciated and delicious!“

“I order from here all the time because the sandwiches are delicious! Today, they forgot the mayo and pepper relish on both of our sandwiches so they were very dry and boring. I like to order online to customize my sandwich but what's the point if they skip the ingredients you want to add??“

“I've been to many, many different Jersey Mike's around the entire country - even the original one in Point Pleasant. The staff do a phenomenal job here and make this place the best one out of all the ones I've been to. It's always clean, the food is really good, and service is top notch. Over several visits the last few months it's been consistent too. This is a well deserved 5 stars. Thank you!!!“

“Harmarville location was my family's savior today! Sonics in Pgh Mills never took our order so we went to Burger King and our grandchildren were VERY happy! There was a long line (it was 1p) but it moved very fast about 3 min. And we had our food they got the food right even with my picky grandson. Thank you for saving the day!“

“First time coming to this location because we went here for lunch yesterday and I'd say our experience was excellent. The service was very quick. Got our orders within like 5 minutes and everything was served hot and delicious.

I wish I took pics of our orders but we were both starving, but I enjoyed the curly fries, the Angus cheesesteak (this was so good, I wish it's not a limited item), and their chicken tenders - which by far - the best tasting tenders I've had. Better than other restaurants around.

Also, kudos to the staff keeping this restaurant clean and well maintained. One of your staffs cleaned up the tables and the tables of other people after they left.

Will definitely come back here again.“

“Awesome Customer Service! The girl there today Went above and beyond. With no truck stops around it's hard to get food when you run out in the truck. I stopped today and called. The lady came out took my money and brought me my food! Thank you so much! Thank you for helping us Truckers! 👍👍“

“Best Ice Cream cakes ever!!! My family loves them🥰“

“My third time there in 2 months...the steak is a great hometown taste for a franchise or chain restaurant. People are friendly funny and take pride in what they do I haven’t got past the steak yet because it’s that good. I am going to try something next visit (at least try to)“

“So glad the Snack Wrap is finally back! I’ve been waiting for this moment for way too long. The wrap was fresh, perfectly crispy, and hit the spot for a late-night craving. Service was quick, and everything was just right. Please never take it off the menu again!!“

“Great service, clean, and fast“

“Stopped today for the first time. The burgers were absolutely delicious, as expected. The regular chocolate shake was very chocolatey which I dig, but it was too much for my daughter.

Order kiosk was weird, someone had already entered than abandoned an s
order.

Food took longer than expected, but it was not ridiculous.

Again, the burger was great. Absolutely delicious, not overly greasy, and I was happy the bun didn't have seeds. Simplicity rules the day.

Crinkle fries were OK, onion rings good. My wife liked her chicken sandwich, my sing said he would not get the chicken twnders next time.

Price-wise I guess it's on par with competition, but damn! $80 for 2 burgers, a chicken sandwich, chicken tenders, 1 order of fries, 1 order of onion rings, 3 regular shakes, and a fountain drink (including tip) seems €x¢€$$iv€.“

“My girl Paula will make sure your visit is pleasant. She has to be the heart of this location. She welcomes everyone with kindness. No matter how busy I’ve seen them, she’s pleasant and checking on guests.

All establishments wish they had a Paula on the the team !“

“I stopped going to Subway a few years ago because of quality was terrible. A couple of years ago I moved and was very close to this location in Westview plaza. I don't know if it is just this location or all subways have stepped up their game but I have never gotten a bad meal at this place!
Everything is fresh and it fills me up. The best part is I order through the app and they always have at least buy one get a second for 50% off and run a buy one get one free promotion very frequently. Currently they are doing the buy one get one free promotion and I have gone there three times in the last 5 days. All three times the food was delicious and did not take long to get. I highly recommend this place.“

“Nice Staff and you can get a photo with Ronald 🍔🍟📸 plus they serve coke products 🥤“

“People were friendly and being on a road trip I asked how much for filling our big cups with ice thinking it would be a charge for ice nope all they said was you just need ice go ahead and have a nice day and here's your two ice cream sundaes Sir is there anything else“

“First time I’ve ever written a review about a drive thru interaction. I ordered online and came in a couple minutes after close. I talked to a couple of the employees and after seeing that I only ordered a McChicken and fries, they agreed to make my order even though the restaurant had already closed. While in the drive through, I had great conversations and laughs with every employee I talked to. I was even offered a complementary drink at the end with my food. Service and the people there were exceptional. It was also probably the best McChicken I’ve ever had in my life.“
