we came in super late the waitress Lily served us. she was an amazing server! super fast and came out with the food despite the restaurant closing. I'd highly recommend having lily as your server she is the best! the food was amazing of course and all the staff were wonderful! 15/10 best service off my life read more

My nephew and I were craving the salad bar. As always, it was fantastic. Our waitress, Barb, asked us if we wanted to order our food when we ordered our drinks. I am a person that always knows what I want when I go somewhere. So of course, we were ready. I feel not many people ask right away and make you wait until they come back (which could be a while). So this was a very good experience. Barb was quick, caring, and very good at multi tasking. The restaurant looked like it was still in the process of being renovated, which I find to be exciting! I'm glad I chose eat n park for my meal today. read more

My husband and I were craving homestyle food and decided to get take out from Pittsburgh's favorite chain diner, Eat n'Park. This is a nostalgic restaurant for me and I will always love the diner decor and cozy booths. I've eaten at different locations over many years... on this trip, we made a spontaneous decision to get dinner at the EatnPark in Monaca. This location has a drive thru but since I didn't call ahead or use mobile ordering, we ordered from the counter. The food took about 15minutes. We ordered the country fried steak and turkey dinner with mashed potatoes and broccoli. The food was warm, tasty and the brown and white gravy is delectable!!! Unfortunately, I didn't check my to-go before leaving and i was missing the bread and cranberry sauce. Rookie mistake on my part. Thank you EatnPark for cooking last night! Appreciate the adorable smiley cookies!!! read more

Eat n Park can be a hit and miss restaurant, both in terms of the food and service. I've had very friendly servers, and others who seemed like they hated being there. The food is mostly good, but sometimes overcooked. Wait times can be long if it's busy. read more

Service was amazing. Our server John Abraham was amazing he always brightens my day and makes me smile. I always ask for him! The food is also always excellent! I highly suggest eating here. read more

So, I grew up with the Eat n Park being one of our breakfast spots. I also appreciate the pick up window because my mom and I often grab breakfast before going in to her work. Honestly, it is ok. From time to time there are missing items, incorrect fod, etc. It is just a local fast spot for diner like food, nothing exciting. It is the Pittsburgh answer to Dennys. So today, we got breakfast and when looking my bread had mold growing on it. I looked at is closely and there was actual sporing. I have no idea how that happens in the middle of the bread. I checked my French toast (as I got the same bread) and there were a black spot on the edge. So, the frustrating part is that someone buttered this bread over the mold and thought that was ok. So we called in and the person said they looked at it and concluded that it was just burnt in the middle of the bread (what?). We pushed back and they are agreeing to check the bread and send a gift card. Mostly, I just wanted them to be aware and not serve moldy bread. I did attach a picture so you can see if maybe I am wrong and this is normal in the bread baking process. read more

Definitely not a Midwest type of restaurant but we were destined to go. Food was good I had a chicken sandwich. Service was average and delayed. Maybe we will try another location next time read more

Place is 400 yards from where I work. Popped in for a quick lunch only had 30 minutes so ordered a turkey club sandwich. Took over 30 minutes for me to get it. That's 3 pieces of toast, 2 slices of cheese some cold cut turkey meat lettuce and tomato and 2 slices of bacon. Only 7 other tables with customers. That's way too long for a simple sandwich. Second time this happened read more

Made a complant to monaca pa store ,talked to manager said she would be sending gift,surprise after 5 days no card,what kind of scam is going on .stay away from monaca pa drive threw. read more

This is by far the worst location and in this country the worst dining experience I've ever had. The manager will not accept ANY responsibility for mistakes and if you don't accept the initial excuse then comes unbelievable rudeness both on the phone and in person. Corporate refuses to do anything about it and I can understand why. Several employees there should never work in the service industry period. You come up with solutions not make cheap excuses for things that are unacceptable like food items not being refunded when they are not received or correct. You don't lie to customers and tell them you will send a gift card in the mail to compensate for your many many mistakes, and then never follow through. NEVER order Togo from this place!!!!! I can't say this enough. If you aren't there to check every item THEY WILL FORGET SOMETHING EVERY SINGLE TIME. When you call about it you will either get rudeness or hung up on if it happens to be busy. I'd I was Corporate I'd fire the manager asap as well as all the disrespect kitchen workers that will personally come out Front to mean mug you if you dare complain about anything. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!! read more

Avoid this place at all costs! Their salad bar is inedible and they can't be bothered to refill the soup of the day. Our server stopped by every 45 minutes, whether we needed it out not. read more

I have been eating there at least once a week for years. Todays meal was my first disappointment. I ordered a cup of potato soup, which was good, but no crackers came with it. The salad I ordered was the baked chicken. There was only 2 pieces of lettuce, I thin slice of hard boiled egg. read more

Delicious, filling, affordable breakfast. Been to Eat 'N Park a couple of times now and I always leave satisfied. The wait staff is friendly and the restaurant simply feels authentically American. Their breakfast plates are satisfying and tasty. Order a combination of eggs, toast, home fries, hash browns, bacon, sausage, pancakes, french toast, and stickies ( try these, they are effectively breakfast cinnamon rolls) They also have an interesting dinner menu and sell pies and their signature smiley cookies that I will have to try on my next visit. read more

We love going to eat n park for breakfast. They serve it all day. The signature smiley cookies welcome you when you walk in. The wide variety of items on the menu are great when you have a group of people with different tastes. It's nothing fancy but a solid choice when you're hungry. I wasn't feeling great today so decided to pick up a farmers vegetable salad and cup of soup at the drive up window. You can order ahead and pull right up. So convenient. I have to rave a little about this farmers vegetable salad. This was probably one of the best salads I've had this year and that's saying something. The grilled vegetables were an awesome topping to this. Sunflower seeds for a good crunch. I don't think I've ever had a dish here I didn't like. We enjoy the cozy vibe and friendly waitresses. read more

Kay and I came here late Friday night/early Saturday morning after a night with Danzig in Pittsburgh. I had no idea what I wanted... Enter The Superburger, The Big Mac's smarter cousin. Over 6 decades old, its triple bun with flour on the bottom, its 1/3 of a pound of beef, its pickles, its shredly deadly lettuce, its...Sauce Supreme unerringly fills the belly in the graveyard hours. Whenever I hold one, I want to squish it, resisting the urge to do so of course. If every component of the Superburger comes from a freezer, E 'N P hides it well. Eat 'N Park's Superburger owns The Clown's most heinous emissary. What is New York Style Cheesecake really? Doesn't everyone say that about their cheesecake? All I'll say is that E 'N P's take on the standard is as creamy and delectable as they come, especially when coated with the nearly obligatory strawberries. Eat 'N Park has a serious fetish for said fruit lately and it has culminated in a breakthrough of a pie: The Strawberry Creme Pie which merges custard and whipped cream for the purpose of celebrating fragaria ananassa, one of its gloriously plump receptacles put atop each slice. Strawberries are tricky. They have to be juuussst right; not underripe, not overripe, and with strawberries, that can easily happen. This particular strawberry was so dead-perfect, wet, achenes shining, a goblet of them and nothing more would have sufficed. Kay ordered the pie that held them. I got one taste. I then regretted ordering mere cheesecake, as good as it was. I'm surprised at how I keep finding E 'n P's in every cubbyhole of Western PA, and it's an ubiquity I don't mind. read more

This place can't even get a simple online order correct. It's absolutely silly. If you order late night around 11pm, it seems like the workers are clueless and jerking around, they don't even know where your order is and better yet they'll charge you for someone else order because their so confused. It's amazing how horrible the customer service is. The managers especially at night are even more classic. If your looking for old food even if you pick it up right on time through the app, you'll wait another 5-10 mins while they let it sit there in the back, the cheese sticks I could have broken a window with. Someone needs to figure out what these children including the child manager are doing, it's a mess! Spend a few bucks more down at Kings at least they show you your food before packaging!!!!!! read more

Composite review: a nice "family" type place off broadhead road out of Monaca. Basic foods are best here. Coffee is unending of course. Salad bar is nice. My favorite remains the basic hamburger. Old style food served well in a friendly atmosphere. f8 and be there. read more

There is nothing to get excited about at this restaurant. I was there for breakfast this morning December 6, 2017 at 7 AM and was not greeted in fact we did not even know if they were open for business because there was no one around after sitting at the bar for about five minutes. My buddy said he heard some talking around the corner and was going to grab someone so that we could order before we had to go to work. Once we made contact with the server who was sitting at a back table with the hostess. The server then came over and gave us our menus and coffee which was pretty fast. We were not sure after we ordered Pancakes an French toast if we were going to get our food in time to be at work by 8AM. It took a long time not sure if the grills where on or if they where chopping down the grains and milling them to make our breakfast. Once the food came out everything else was good but I will not be going back to this restaurant next time I am in town for business. The only reason I am giving two stars is bc the food was hot and the waitress had a smile. Slow Service Food was nothing to talk about read more

Hi this eat n park blows my friend dident get his french toast in time and its a buffet he needs it to survive cause he gets low K levels..... but thats a diffrent story... i fuck with the cream pie.... i love cream pies..... the lady was britsh or acted britsh idk if she was putting on a show or she just uses that voice to scare people away.....but all in all i would rather eat a dandelion off toilet seat. Thanks for ir time read more

Got take out at 5am, from long road trip. The young blonde server was very nice. We just came from a horrible experience at IHOP, and it was very nice to have such great service. Thank you read more

Sat at the bar hoping for a quick breakfast, however I got the opposite. I watched three employees standing next to me at the register along with the manager. They saw me, yet none of them did anything to relative getting a menu, something to drink or even find a server. I waited 10 minutes before anyone approached me. It's another example of poor service and lack of work ethic. I blame the manager. Training, development and accountability seem to missing from the Eat n' Park playbook. It's only breakfast, but next time I'll know to go to Panera. read more

Eat'n Park is one of the few restaurants that has things my super picky daughter will eat in their salad bar. So we frequent them. This one has not disappointed. Although the macaroni salad in the salad bar tasted like macaroni in ranch, and upon asking the waitress, she confirmed with the kitchen that that was exactly what it was. Er. Ew. They have great hamburgers. And the baked chicken parm was surprisingly good. Tip: get the salad bar with an entree. Fill up on the salad bar. They have salad, dessert, and 3 different types of soup. Take the entree home for leftovers! read more

Being a Pittsburger, I'm a huge Eat n' Park fan and rarely have any issues when I visit. However, I will not be returning to this location. We both oredered breakfast (not hard to mess up). The eggs were dry and had no taste, the bacon was gross, the toast was dripping with way too much butter and it took awhile for our waitress to give us our check. read more

Always a favorite of mine, my family's, and many friends'. There's plenty of local H.S. memorabilia on the walls and in the dining room, and the music is at a comfortable roar. Eat N Park is known for great breakfast, and I'm never disappointed when I do opt for some pancakes or french toast. The grilled stickies a la mode are a masterpiece, I highly recommend them. They're not even $3, and when you bring in a ticket stub from the Cinemark just up the road, you get $2 off your check. SWEET. The wait staff is friendly enough, especially the one waitress who calls everyone "friend" and is constantly singing along to whatever is playing at the time, even while taking orders. It's more fun and lighthearted than disrespectful, I assure you. I've had bad experiences as well, don't get me wrong. Waiting for food, refills, the check, even when every other table around you is getting excellent service, it happens. We must have smelled like a superburger - gut wrenching. Anyway, they have good pies for sale and the smiley cookies are classic., the price is right and the staff is friendly. The menu satisfies and the coffee just keeps coming, just like me and my friends will keep coming back to this Eat n' Park. read more

Yum... we love this restaurant. Always a great meal. Get the Rachel or the chicken brussetta.

We like this place. The salad bar is very good and is a nice addition to any meal. The foos is standard diner fare, but better than IHOP, Denny's, etc.. read more

It is what it is. Somewhat cheap food with service that can be hit or miss. Going to Eat'n Park one should go in with no expectations.

Newly renovated and is very nice. They even have a TV at the "bar" area.

Great food and service. The staff is friendly and the restaurant is clean. Strongly recommend. It truly is the Place for Smiles.

Tried this place twice in a week. Neither time was the establishment busy, both times the seating times were adequate. The first time, about a 10 minute wait before someone finally came to the table to take a drink order. Following that, the service was fine. The second time, the waitstaff was in such a hurry to get back in the kitchen to not do their job, they neglected to notice a table had been seated. After 10 minutes had passed, we decided to leave. read more

This place has good food and that's why I'm giving it 4 stars. Where's the 5th star you may ask? Well that's because of a life threatening encounter I had while I was there. So it went like this, I order my food and get an appetizer of mozzarella sticks, and this is where it went downhill from there. I was chewing on my mozzarella stick when I started choking! The cheese was halfway down my throat with no way of coming out! That's when I took it upon me to basically fish it back out of my mouth so I didn't die because of this choking hazard. I KNOW for a fact that I'm not the only one who has done this because my friend told me that the same thing happened to her! I think that underneath of the mozzarella sticks on the menus should have a choking hazard underneath it! Anyone else? read more

Pretty dirty! Looks like the have not cleaned the floor all day. Can only imagine what the back looks like!

We just finished eating here today. The salad plates were dirty. They were coated in what looked like ranch dressing. We had 2 flies landing in our good. Since this is January, there should be no flies. I would guess they are breading in the restaurant. We told our waitress and she apologized. She was pleasant. When we walked up to pay a server with name tag Roxann was loudly complaining behind the check out register to someone in the bakery window and the hostess that they weren't seating anyone in her area and she only had 3-4 tables in the last two and a half hours. It was bad show for restaurant. I don't want to hear your complaints and drama. She said, "I'm outta here." Thst was almost as nauseating as the server who was outside smoking when we arrived. I haven't seen a manager walk around and show a presence at this location in years. Save yourself the aggravation and go to Kings or Texas Roadhouse. read more

Not a fan of this place. I have been to others that are cleaner and faster. I find that the food isn't always prepared well and prefer kings over this place hands down. read more

We did the drive thru in Center. The manager put the order together and everything was wrong. The salad dressing was wrong, there was chicken on the salad when we asked for no chicken, we asked for garlic toast and received rolls, we received a baked potato which was rotten inside. Never going to Center Eat n' Park again it is a waste of money read more

My husband and I often eat at this restaurant on Sunday mornings and other times during the month. Last Sunday Sept.4th we got the buffett and it was excellent. This Sunday Sept 11 we were very disappointed. We arrived around 8 a.m. We sat right across from the buffett so we noticed there was no bacon. We both opted for the buffett anyway thinking it would be filled right away. About 35 minutes went by still no bacon. The biscuits were hard. Other items were not filled. We ask and the server said things would be filled. Others also ask and got the same answer. Not worth the money we spent today. Coffee is usually bitter. We may have to find another Sunday brunch place for us. JudieNGeorge E. read more

We have had bad service and meals in the past but decided to try the one in Monaca as it has been almost 2 years since multiple horrible experiences at the Moon Township location. It was announced at the Steelers Ravens game that Eat N Park would give free Super Burgers the next day if you showed your ticket. The burgers were tiny and burnt with little bits of lettuce and pickles. Water , a cup of soup and burgers took an hour to get in a semi empty dining room. And to get the free burgers, you had to surrender the actual tickets. Sorry Eat N Barf, we have not changed our minds about eating at any location in the future. BTW, we were just one table in a line of complaints yesterday. read more

i really like this eat n park. they have super nice servers and they have really good food i think more people should go here. the waitresses are super nice i always go in there and have conversations with them.i really recommend people going here...they have a salad bar also and its great!! PEOPLE GO TO EAT N PARK!!! read more

Yesterday morning the 9th of Dec..we decided to go to EP for breakfast...got a booth by the salad bar..We got the buffet, I ordered coffee and she got a ice tea.We stepped up and got the eggs, etc and sat down.. It was 10:40 am and the crew came in to change over to the lunch spread....Wow..why so early I said...I stepped up and got two whimpy pan cakes with blueberries on top as a employee waited and as I put the spoon back he lifted the pan out and away..Probably the main concern for this complaint is the sausage and the bacon.,and then the sliced ham...At home I buy Jimmy Dean sausage (great taste) with my eggs in the morning and todays bacon well pay the piper to get a desirable slice of bacon with great taste or forget it all together...tasteless and thats what sums up the three meats I ate yesterday...The sliced ham that came out on the lunch spread, nice slices wow that had no flavor at all...amazing..the piece of pineapple didn't help either..food for thought here on this message...I payed 21 dollars and some change plus the tip for this meal..and I can honesty say that with all the sit down resturants in the area with the same great coffee and a breakfast menu, whatever your desire, I doubt seriously if I will return, out with buffets ...There was not a problem with the service or the waitresses and the admosphere is nice...the smilely cookie so famous with Eat and Park had a frown yesterday..
