    Cold frosty mug
    Alexander P.

    Came out for Trivia Night. Haven't been here in a long time because I never really loved the food. Turns out I still don't. I ordered street tacos with cod. The fish was barely seasoned at all. I asked for hot sauce, which they no longer leave out for customers. It took several minutes and my tacos were getting cold while I waited. That being said, the bartender was friendly and the beer was super cold. It's a fine place if you want cold beer and maybe wings to watch the game, but don't come here expecting a great meal.

    I was visiting my BFF from LA and went to this place on a Saturday night a few weekends ago. I'm originally from MO, and this place was total Midwest vibes in a good way - cheap and portions were big lol. I got the speciality drink on the menu - a seltzer mixed with vodka. This $8 drink would have cost triple this price in LA lol. My bestie got a glass of wine. For 2 meals + an app + 2 drinks, I think the tab was around $60? So cheap! We got the fried pickles as an app and loved the sauce. I got the antipasto salad and it was a good portion with lots of toppings. I wish I remembered the waitress' name because the was really nice and cool! She wa

    Came for trivia with the wife. Not very crowded...decent menu...a little overpriced IMO. Wife ordered a burger...I got fajitas...we share an app of potato skins. Skins: good; came quickly; served hot Burger: she enjoyed it...cooked properly Fajitas: when my wife's food came and the runner looked at me and said "didn't you order anything?" I knew I was in for it. A few minutes later, the waitress came by and told me that "the computer didn't save my order." She said she'd put it right in. It was about 15 minutes until I got my food and my wife was done eating already. However, the fajitas were very good. Nice sized portion. I got steak and chicken. She did a pretty good job keeping up with refills on my wife's soda and my coffee. Overall...OK. Nothing great. Other than the mishap with my order, they did an average job. Trivia was fun...we enjoyed the host from Cheaters Never Prosper. Will we be back? Probably won't make a point of it, but would come back specifically for trivia.

    Alright food but they are too lazy to take 30 seconds and put the buffalo sauce on my wings. Instead I get this.

    Kids Chicken Fingers

    Ordered door dash. The crab pretzel has no crab which is misleading because it says crab in the description. Also my son's chicken fingers were black.

    I was also pleasantly surprised when I was greeted by this Fancy Tomato Ketchup

    Today was my first time going to Arooga's in a while, and I honestly forgot what it's like . I'm glad to say I wasn't disappointed. I ordered the pizza with fries and the fries were perfectly salted and the pizza had the perfect balance of sauce and cheese. There is football or something football related playing on every screen, so if you get bored while waiting you can watch that. The reason I gave it a 4 star review and not a 5 star is because every now and then a little droplet of water will fall from the ceiling which is understandably annoying. Overall a great restaurant and I will be coming again.

    Buffaque 10 Original Wings
    Kristen W.

    We popped in here at 9:30 pm because literally everything else around us was closed. They are understaffed, so you seat yourself at the bar or surrounding tables. Gage (the bartender) came and took our drink and dinner orders as soon as we sat down. We started off with the seafood nachos, which had really delicious, hot, fresh tasting shrimp on top. We devoured those before I could even get a picture. The old bay mixed with the cheese was just *chef's kiss*. For our entrees we decided to try the donut burger, because we've never been anywhere that has offered that before, as well as 10 original wings in the buffaque (BBQ mixed with Buffalo) sauce. I have only had bad experiences with wings so far in PA, but these were good. They weren't huge, but they were crispy, well sauced (the sauce had a really nice kick to it), and were hot. The donut burger was interesting because you got the sweet sugar from the donut first and then the bacon and cheese and burger after. We'd order that again as well. The ambiance is nice, there's lots of TVs showing any game imaginable. Make friends with the bartenders- they're really nice and can order suggestions. We will definitely be back.

    Good nachos.
    Adam P.

    We have been coming here a bit more often because Teds closed on second and we like the wings. Also the nachos. The bartenders are nice. There are plenty of TVs. I like aroogas award program. And I love the chocolate chip cookie dessert. Sometimes the wings are pretty small. But that seems to happen more often now at multiple places.

    I'm only reviewing the food, as we had it delivered and dropped off at the doorstep by GrubHub. Everything we ordered was delicious! My kids and I sampled each other's food and were pleasantly surprised at how our suggestions and options were met. Wasn't too sure on portion sizes but they were decent and decently priced. We actually had a lot leftover which is awesome. Will be eating here again!

    Great food with amazing service and timeless of delivery! Didn't have to wait barely for a single thing! We got the pretzel burger and the Gouda burger!! Both great, and well cooked as we requested. Kids got sliders and tots, both loved it!

    Time for an update and to counter all of the BS negative reviews some folks (probably only one or…read moretwo people using multiple accounts) decided to leave on this fine establishment's page. Anyone who knowingly goes into a smoking bar/restaurant and is bothered or offended by smoke should not have gone inside in the first place...Or immediately left. In my previous review, I took off one star for this, but upon reflection, it's not fair to knock the business simply for what they do, which is cater to a clientele that smokes. I hate cigarette smoke but keep coming back...hmm, wonder why??? It's like taking off a star because a restaurant serves pork (something you might not like, consume, or even want to smell!). WTH? We've been stopping here a lot lately for weekday lunch, especially taco Tuesday. Great deals on really amazing tasting food-the reason I keep coming back!!! Always a drink special and plenty of daily food specials. There was one time our server had a bitch-face and her attitude sucked, but pretty sure she's long-gone. And if ever there was any issue with service or the food, I know for a fact the owner or manager would correct the issue on the spot. So, if there's a problem, give the business a chance to make it right, don't be a d!ck, and your issue will likely go away. Leaving a bad review after the fact does nothing to solve the problem you had, so why bother? Over the years I've grown to love "The Madre" and you will too. If you can handle the the smoke...

Our server was very friendly and patient, as we haven't been to a B Dubs in a very long time. We ordered two beers and our meals. The cauliflower wings were actually my favorite - very tasty! The motz sticks were ok and the boneless wings weren't terrible. The fried pickles were not my favorite. Also ordered a Mac and cheese burger - ok, but nothing to write home about. The food isn't terrible but it's not great. Unfortunately, it was also cold - like sat there for a while cold. Again, not busy at all so wasn't particularly happy about that - but I'm not a complainer. I had the free burger coupon from downloading the app, which was an added bonus. Dinner was less than $35 with everything included. All in all, not an overly terrible experience but I don't know that we're coming back anytime soon.

Sides: The wait staff says, "...and you get a side with that...", then when the check comes, they CHARGE you for the side????? Ridiculous.....

This little hole-in-the-wall sits on the backside of a rivertown, serving up old-school vibes and seriously good pizza. The dough and sauce are made in-house, and you can taste it -- crust was crisp yet airy, with a buttery richness and just enough chew to make each bite satisfying. Sauce had a bit of spice, cheese was bubbly, browned, and full of real-deal flavor (no sad, fake cheese here). Toppings? Plentiful and delicious. We came dangerously close to finishing the whole pie, stopping only two slices short. For drinks, my adventure buddy went classy with an Old Fashioned (good, but nothing to write home about -- and the bar's lack of Luxardo cherries made him sad), while I kept it real with a draft Miller Lite. The beer was cold and clean -- and honestly, from a hole-in-the-wall bar, that's something I appreciate. Bartender doubled as our waitress and handled it like a pro, even on a slow Monday night. The place is dark and cozy, decorated with lots of '50s-inspired artwork, and apparently has a rooftop bar -- sadly closed during our summer date night. The bill came to $42 for the pizza, two drinks, and a tip -- budget-friendly date night win. No on-site parking, but plenty of free curb spots out front or municipal lots a block away. Safe area for an after-dark stroll. If you're into unpretentious spots serving pizza that punches above its weight, Fratelli's is your jam.
