However, since I was touring a few Frank Lloyd Wright houses, I had not eaten since my early morning continental breakfast at the Comfort Inn in Connellsville. Mindlessly following the Google Maps directions, I arrived in a town called Indian Head and didn't have any expectations about what I'd find in this family-friendly roadside diner. Without hesitation, I ordered the $13.99 Grilled Chicken Salad. I was quite impressed with what arrived. There were huge pieces of grilled chicken breast, tender and moist, with cucumber, lettuce, cherry tomatoes, onions, beets, shredded cheddar, and a pickled egg with ranch dressing on the side (Photo 9). Sounds basic, I know, but it was hearty, fresh, and genuinely satisfying. Midway through my salad, a plate of fries arrived (Photo 10). I wasn't expecting it, but the server apologized for the delay. I only noticed later that the fries were mentioned in the menu. I certainly didn't mind because they were hot, tasty, and not at all greasy. Even though I was getting full and kinda anxious to get going, I was rather hypnotized by the refrigerator of freshly made pies. I just couldn't help myself and ordered a $4.29 slice of Banana Meringue Pie (Photo 8). I don't think I've had homemade pie that good since gorging at Valois back in my olden grad school days in the South Side of Chicago. What a nice surprise to have such a delicious square meal in a place called Indian Head. FOOD - 5 stars..tasty, reasonably priced diner fare exceeded my expectations AMBIANCE - 4 stars...clean and spacious diner SERVICE - 5 stars...friendly server made a big difference TOTAL - 5 stars...if I'm ever in western Pennsylvania, I'd be back RELATED - Exploring the Pittsburgh area?

What a great find! From the minute we walked into O'Donnell's Pub, Angela greeted us with a huge…read moresmile and made us feel completely welcome. She was AMAZING--friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed to care that we were having a great experience. And the FOOD!! You can absolutely tell that so much here is scratch-made and prepared by people who care about what they're serving. We tried the jalapeño poppers, house salads, homemade mac & cheese, fish sandwich, and the homemade provolone sticks--and everything was delicious! One of my favorite things about O'Donnell's was the atmosphere. There were lots of regulars, everyone was friendly, and you could just feel that this is the kind of neighborhood pub where people come back again and again because they're treated well. Great scratch-made food, great service, friendly people, and a place that clearly cares about its customers. Angela made our first visit especially wonderful. We'll definitely be back!

We've been here two times now and have had excellent meals both times. On our latest visit, we sat…read moreoutside on their patio and ordered the deviled eggs to start. Tasty. Kind of a combination of a scotch egg (without the sausage) and a traditional deviled egg. I'm usually not a fan of curry, but they used it sparingly to create a nice flavor. We then shared the pierogies. Not sure if they were homemade or not, but they were definitely not the standard Mrs. T's. I loved how they put the potato pierogies on a bed of sauerkraut. It was the best of both worlds. If I had one complaint, I'd say the sauerkraut was a bit too sweet for my liking. But it was still good. For the main course, we shared a fish sandwich. No complaints here. A nice piece of fish served on a fresh bun with good fries.

I also enjoy the cabbage rolls with mashed potatoes. I love that they offer buckwheat cakes in the winter, but they are not as sour as I like and they can be inconsistent thickness which sometimes leads to mushy center. My son always enjoys the fish sandwich and my daughter loves the cheese balls. They do offer specials daily - typical home style things like meatloaf, spaghetti, liver and onions, etc. That includes a soup of the day as well. Breakfast is offered daily and you can order breakfast any time of day.

Kind of a cross between a sports bar with TVs and projector screens, as well as dark walls and dark wood dining. It was pretty quiet when we were there - kind of weird being a weekend evening, We started with some appetizers: bruschetta, steak egg rolls, and fried pepperoni. The bruschetta was good - executed properly and textbook. The bread was toasted but a soft bite - just the right amount of tomato and balsamic. The steak egg rolls were also very good - had a kick with cherry peppers inside. Comes with ranch as a dipping sauce. The fried pepperoni was different. The breading struggled to stay on the pepperoni but it was good overall. For my entree I went with the red chicken parm. It comes with pasta (billed as made from Scratch) and red sauce. There were two hamburger-sized chicken pieces, breaded with cheese and a small amount of sauce on top. I felt like the cheese on the top was scarce - should be more. Upon first bite, I was throttled with the flavor of salt, heavy heavy salt. I tried the other piece and the same. I don't mind salt items but this breading reminded me of overuse of the chicken seasoning pack in ramen, and was just over the top. Pasta was ok. For dessert - since I didn't eat much of the entree, I went with the chocolate cake. Holy hell it's massive. The picture doesn't really do it justice. It was immense. Cake was good - though kind of dry at times. Our waitress was nice - attentive and responsive to us throughout the meal. Would try again - I would say really this is closer to a 3 than a 4 but. Whichever.

Good beer: decent variety, maybe put in an imperial stout and/or a double IPA? It was quite a surprise to find a brewery restaurant in this neck of the woods. It's great to see businesses like this in a small town, USA. I found out from the proprietor that this was one of the stomping grounds/pit stops for those on a several hundred mile gravel bike race. This establishment is also close to Big Bear Lake campground. Overall, a very pleasant surprise, and a great addition outside Morgantown, in the boonies. I hope other small towns throughout this country also follow suit. The owner told me that sometimes there is a waiting list to be served: impressive.

But I cant complain, I'm just sensitive to the temp is all. The staff acted as if it didnt bother them in the least bit! They delivered the spectacular service & amazing food we've come to expect.

Not to mention the musical guests that played lots of my personal favorites in new & surprising ways. We got the pepperoni pizza & the white pizza with garlic & onions. Omgosh YUM! My grandkids are in love with the sandbox & made some new friends while we were there. We saw 3 pea-hens & one gorgeous peacock that decided to put on a show for us.

The food was as good as it could be for south western PA. The french onion soup was good. Cheesy and many onions. I liked it. The angel hair was very overcooked and very mushy. I'm not sure what i was thinking as angel hair is hard to cook so maybe stick to the spaghetti. I would recommend the lunch portion over the dinner portion. The meatballs were spiced well and had a nice texture. The sauce was not too sweet but a bit bland. After the soup i really only ate 1 meatball. The stuffed pasta with vodka sauce was good. A bit salty but pasta was cooked well. I would recommend this but again a large portion even for lunch.
