“Every time we have gone, the service and food was very good. Chipped beef sandwich is excellent. Staff is very friendly.”

“An excellent local brewery with a nice variety of beers to choose from which includes light ales to dark stouts. All of the food is very good, but I’d recommend the flat breads. My favorite is the pepperoni. If you are into pinball machines this place has a bunch of them. The staff is very friendly and the mug club may be worth joining if you stop by often.”

“Kellie’s always great food and atmosphere! Love their breakfasts!! The homemade baked goods are amazing!! They go fast because they are so yummy!!”

“Their pizzas are a huge hit at our store!”

“Nice local bar. Ross is a great guy and makes a good drink. Prices are competitive and the only reason it was not given 5 stars was that Coors Banquet Beer is not available.”

“Brought home the 12 Scoops of Christmas last night for my 2 daughters. They loved trying the different flavors and I did as well. Very good selection of flavors. Can't say enough good things!”

“Food was excellent and plentiful. Enough for dinner the next day. Service was outstanding our reservation was for 5:30 and we were seated by 5:10. Our waitress Angela B was fantastic. Her service was a 10+. Would definitely go back and highly recommend it…”

“Awesome pizza and people.”

“You will feel welcome right away! You’ll feel like part of the gang! Pizza was so good. Can’t wait to try burgers and wings!”

“Love their gluten free flatbread!”

“I love the amount of real spices they use in their curries. I can tell that the restaurant has a great quality of food. I am very sensitive to (hot) spices, but I want to enjoy the flavors of Indian food. If I ask for a 0 the spice level feels too hot for me. Last time I came, I asked for them to adjust the spice level to be milder than 0. They were able to reduce the heat in the dish to levels I could handle without reducing the flavor. I have not dined in at this restaurant, but enjoy the ambience of the place. It is clean and the decor is eye catching.”

“Nestled in a modest plaza at 226 Center Road in Monroeville, Pennsylvania, Big Rig’s BBQ is the kind of place that turns barbecue lovers into regulars. Owned and operated by the warm and welcoming husband-and-wife team of Josh and Susan Toney, along with their talented chef, this local spot has quickly become a standout in the Pittsburgh-area BBQ scene since opening a few years ago. What sets it apart? It's chef-driven smoked meats using a blend of hickory, cherry, and apple woods, creative sides, craft sandwiches, and an unwavering commitment to quality. But let's get to the heart of it—the food, the people, and the vibe that make every visit feel like coming home. If there's one item that defines Big Rig’s BBQ, it's the brisket. This Texas-style brisket is nothing short of exceptional. Smoked low and slow daily, it arrives at your table with a beautiful bark, a perfect smoke ring, and tenderness that rivals the best pits in the country. You can order it lean or fatty (I always go for a mix), and it literally melts in your mouth. Fork-tender, juicy, and packed with deep, smoky flavor, it's the kind of brisket that makes you close your eyes on the first bite. Reviewers from North Carolina to Texas have raved about it, with many calling it the best they've had outside their home states. Pair it with one of their house-made sauces— the sweet house sauce, tangy Carolina mustard, or spicy variant—and you've got barbecue perfection. Whether sliced on a platter, stuffed into a baked potato, or melted into their famous Brisket Grilled Cheese sandwich (a gooey, indulgent masterpiece), the brisket is consistently outstanding and the reason many drive from across the region. But Big Rig’s isn't just about classics; their creativity shines in the Burger of the Week, a rotating special that drops every Wednesday and keeps things exciting. Each new burger is a stroke of genius, blending premium ingredients with BBQ flair in ways that surprise and delight. One week, it might be a double smash burger topped with chopped brisket, crispy onions, and a tangy sauce that elevates it to legendary status. Another features bold flavors like jalapeño cheddar, bacon, and raspberry honey mustard slaw on a pretzel bun—sweet, spicy, smoky, and utterly addictive. I've tried several, and every single one has been phenomenal: juicy patties cooked to perfection, fresh toppings that balance textures and tastes, and portions that leave you satisfied but plotting your return. Diners frequently call these burgers the best in the Pittsburgh area, with one declaring a brisket-topped version "the BEST burger I've had." The anticipation for each new creation builds community buzz on social media, and it's easy to see why— these aren't ordinary burgers; they're innovative, flavorful triumphs that showcase the kitchen's talent. Beyond the stars of the menu, the supporting cast is equally impressive. Sides like the creamy mac and cheese, smoky pit beans with burnt ends, sweet vinegar coleslaw, and melt-in-your-mouth cornbread are generous and house-made with care. Other meats—fall-off-the-bone ribs, rich pork belly burnt ends, pulled pork, and even smoked kielbasa—round out platters that feed families effortlessly. There's a kids' menu with favorites like grilled cheese and chicken tenders, making it easy to bring the whole crew. What truly elevates Big Rig’s is the owners and staff, who are incredibly friendly and genuinely passionate. Josh and Susan are often on-site, chatting with guests, recommending pairings, and ensuring everyone feels welcome. The service is attentive yet relaxed, with staff going above and beyond—whether explaining the sauces at the table or accommodating special requests. It's clear this is a family-run operation built on love for great food and community. The environment is perfectly family-friendly: clean, casual, and cozy with ample seating, including space for larger groups. It's not a fancy spot, but it's inviting—think warm ligh”

“Had dinner at Sforno, had a Betty White pizza, Cluck Norris, bread sticks, meatballs, and Greek flatbread also brought home a piece of strawberry cake! So silky and delicious. Everything was awesome! The waitress was great and the owner made sure we had anything we needed! Will definitely be returning! Thank you for a great experience!”

“Great sandwiches and bakery items”

“Casey and her team make truly incredible cakes and sweets. I have been a customer for a few years now and knew that hiring Casey for our wedding cake was the easiest decision in planning our wedding! We chose to do a small ceremony cake and ordered sheet cakes for our guests. Before finalizing our cake order we picked up one of the cake testing boxes, which was so helpful in narrowing down flavors. We ultimately went with vanilla cake and buttercream because a classic is a classic for a reason! The cake so delicious, beautiful, and fresh on the wedding day. We couldn't have ask for a better treat to end the perfect night!”

“Love this place, great atmosphere, great ingredients that make great smoothies. I recommend the brewed awakening smoothie, very very good. Would add pictures to this review, but I drink my smoothies from here way too fast and forgot :)”

“My second trip there, great food good service.i got to say,we got 3 gyros. They had so much meat i could have made at lease two more out of all the meet on the gyro.it was great great great. Hopefully next order will be a sit down order there. Will be returning for sure”

“Very welcoming place. Great food and friendly people”

“Very personable! The food was hot and simply DELICIOUS. Hosea and "Mom"(she's such a sweetie pie), see you soon.”

“My family's favorite sub shop. 45 minute drive but always worth it. Tried at least a dozen different items now and all were the best. If you have never been there - you really do not know what you are missing - it has no equal. The bread and meats and prep are all unique - a really great place !!”

“First of all I’ve eaten here many times over the years but when you pull in it seems like you’re pulling into a garage area but the food is definitely worth it square cuts with the pepperoni sausage the usual pizza condiments a lot of people like it around here in this area I’m sure you will too. It’s been here since the 50s. It’s a Pittsburgh secret a bit hard to find a little bit out of the way. Old school square cut Sicilian pizza 🍕 The Whole place is contained in a Garage. Very Unique. Go out of your way and Check it out.”

“We do not have an Indian restaurant where I live. It is my favorite cuisine. I have driven to Monroeville more times than I can count to satisfy my family’s Indian cravings (yes even my 7 year old loves Indian food). I can say without a doubt this is the best I have tried in the Pittsburgh area. The freshness and quality is so amazing. The owner is very personable and service is great. I will go no where else but this place going forward. So happy a decided to stop on a whim!”

“Always loved their lasagna but last time the layers were more meat or something..than ricotta. Very dark..not as good as always..did they change their recipe”

“Shout out to this great place and the people there. My aunt had a medical episode while there for lunch and staff and patrons jumped in to help. great food and great people. highly recommend...”

“Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

“Love this place & the coffee , people are so nice , & very relaxing”

“we just moved to the area and have tried a few local pizza places...they've all sucked! 1. we got so SICK after eating it. 2. the pizza was okay, but the calzone was raw...like more raw dough than cheese!!! 3. just tasted like cardboard. 4. over priced but not atrocious. well tonight I REALLY REALLY wanted good pizza! I contemplated driving an hour and a half to get a pizza from a place that I KNOW is safe! I stead I took the chance with Pasquales. seriously the best pizza I've had in the LONGEST TIME. it was so fast, I honestly expected it to be horrible. but it was delicious! I usually can barely crush 2 pieces...I ate 6.. I do feel sick but that's just because I ate way too much!! the sauce has flavor, it's well seasoned. the crust is buttery and delicious. you can actually TASTE the garlic! they don't skimp on seasoning which is so nice! this is our new go to for pizza!!!”

“I usually love eating here and understand that it gets very busy. However, they do not run reservations well. I checked in 30 minutes after making my reservation. My quoted time was 40 to 55 minutes. We waited an additional 30 to be told that I wasn't checked in properly. Waited a total of an hour and 20 minutes and still was not seated.”

“Visited this morning for the first time. Got egg and cheese sandwiches, one croissant one ciabatta - both were amazing!! The lattes were delicious and rich. You can really taste the quality of the espresso. They were short staffed (1 employee who was grinding hard!) so I did wait about 25 minutes for two coffees and sandwiches. I didn’t mind that much and it was well worth the wait. Can’t wait to go back!”
