“It has a dive bar vibe with a huge bar area surrounded by some tables. It gets pretty busy at night. We didn't eat, but the pizza and wings looked good.

It seems like a great spot for drinks with friends or if you enjoy pulling up a few seats at the bar and people-watching.“

“We celebrated a surprise Birthday here and the trays of wings I ordered were piping hot and delicious!!! The service and gratitude from the Bar owner and staff made us feel very welcome. This bar got a bad rap for awhile when they were leasing it out, but their has been a big change in things there. This was my 3rd time here for a party and every time we had a very nice time. Their patrons, bartenders, and staff are very friendly, and inviting. Its good to see that some of these past bars are making a great come back! They sell food if your hungry, and there is plenty of parking in the parking lot just outside.“

“Great place to have fun and great people to be around.“

“Was here the other year with my girlfriend on a random road trip. We did some bar hopping and came here on our travels. Cool little spot, the bartender was very nice and the bar patrons were hilarious. I came away with some money gambling on the one machine that helped out with our bar hopping adventures LOL for not being from the are we were treated like one of the regulars“

“Amazing!!!! we had fantastic drinks, service, and food!!“

“I don't normally endorse just any restaurant, but we stumbled upon the best Mexican restaurant in the area. La Cantina Amigon on S. Main Street in Wilkes-Barre is the place you need to go when you're craving excellent Mexican food, great service (see Delia), and fair prices. 😋👍🏻👍🏻 🌮“

“Great time at our class reunion!“

“Haslins Cafe is now under new ownership. I miss the old owner, he was so sweet to me. It is now Hit n Sip, on George Ave, Parsons, Pa.
We stopped by for dinner and drinks tonight. My husband had chicken cheese steak and it was delicious. The chicken is fresh not frozen. The bun was toasted. So delicious. . Made to order, asked if he wanted the peppers and cheese on it. He dis. So yummy

I had a pizza with onions. It was thin and and plenty of cheese and onions. They were not skimpy. . It was so delicious .

The bartender, owner,and cook were so friendly and nice.
Prices are reasonable and the music on jukebox was great.“

“A staple in the northeastern Pennsylvania cuisine scene.
White tablecloth fine dining, menu excellent , genuinely welcoming.. they have a cozy little bar for a table for two on a busy night. Staff is wonderful, truly great service and I believe there is a gentleman that opens the door for the guests ( at least that's what my mom told me ). Also I'd like to know that they chose to put those tablecloth mats on each table, so your plates don't ping off the tabletop, things sit nice, comfy on the elbows.. As a dweeb, I take notice of those extra touches.. just sayin'
Delicious traditional dishes, but with a real touch of genuine.
They put craft and dedication to cooking these traditional dishes.
The staff is one of the finest in the area, service was outstanding I would say make sure to order the special. Even though you might not know what it is, you can trust that this kitchen will deliver an amazing plate.
Recently I went there with my parents, and they reminded me to wear something nice and make sure I don't have any holes in my jeans.. haha!
That's the kind of place this is in a great way.
Isabella has been doing it great for I would say almost 20 years one of my best friends used to cook their way back when and was always regarded as a very great kitchen in the area.
Always a great choice.
Thank you very much Isabella I will see you again! See you around!

“🍺🥃👍 The finest wings and booze money can buy .“

“Found this place a few months back when my daughter had a softball game up that way, and I was looking for a place to watch the Eagles on Sunday. This place did not disappoint for watching any Eagles game. It’s truly like a full eagle bar with the atmosphere of all the fans. Love the place went back a second time a week ago.“

“When my Jeep grenaded it’s serpentine belt I pulled into the owners lot where I was greeted by Don and Vicky, they looked at my car, insisted I come in to stay warm and even gave me a few pints to take the sting of breaking down away! It doesn’t hurt they like the Steelers either! I will be back soon for real with my wife to say hello“

“Love sitting at the bar and grabbing a drink with my friends! Their peach martini is definitely my fave!“

“Amazing experience. Food was beautiful and tasted great. Bartender/Server was super accommodating.“

“Always a great time when I come to Rodano’s. I’ve been there for full dinners with family or just drinks and a light meal at the bar. Aside from large events, there is always a place to sit and relax. Lisa is by far my favorite bartender. She always brings a smile to my face when I know she’s working. Plenty of parking downtown and close to public transportation if needed.“

“Had wings when we were here. Lots of options. Food was good service was confusing. Multiple people involved in delivery and questions as to who got what. Noticed a staff meeting of sorts in the hallway so maybe it was a fluke. Wings were done well. Drinks were good. A good experience overall“

“Impeccable service, fantastic menu and always something fun to do! It’s really nice to have a place to go where everyone is welcome and has fun and just enjoys food and drinks in a laid back environment.“

“We were there on Sunday for a Christening Brunch,food was delicious, everyone one had a great time,,and our Waiter Shaquan was absolutely amazing,would definitely come back... .“

“Great food great staff it’s just that when we went to use our coupon that we paid for the bar tender stated that they don’t honor the full 30 that they would honor only 15 bucks which I don’t think is fair but it won’t turn us away just thought it was a little uncalled for when that’s what the coupon states“
