It almost feels like you discovered something you weren't supposed to find. The menu is just as random as the location -- sandwiches, tacos, salads, and small plates. It sounds chaotic... but somehow it works. But at botL, the cacio e pepe is king. Yes, that cacio e pepe. The infamous Roman dish with so few ingredients that it has no right delivering this much flavor. It's simple food that exposes bad technique instantly... and botL absolutely nails it. They don't mess around either, even incorporating the hollowed-out cheese wheel. Sure, it might look a little showy... but when it tastes this good, who cares? I added the blackened shrimp and it was cooked to perfection. Perfect seasoning, perfect texture, perfect addition. Sometimes the best meals come from the most unexpected places... and botL fits that bill perfectly.

Maizy, Lydia, attention to our service, Simone (chef) and Tom greeted us with smiles and welcomes! I never choose for anyone but said I'm ordering our entrees! Cacio de pepe with filet tips atop. Wedge salad, wedding soup, and stemmed glass martinis and cabernet with dinner! Oh, brûlée cheesecake with a birthday candle was perfect ending! We arrived later than planned and happily closed the place down. We never felt rushed to go!!! That's an exceptional quality! I love it here and so did they! Resers best especially during prime time and days, but the bar is fun too! Some side parking and neighborhood street parking! You can thank me later!

Cons- it's a little far out of the way for me to travel to go weekly. And the interaction with the staff has always been awkward, not sure what to make of that. Summary- even with my listed cons above, it's worth the trip out of Pittsburgh or anywhere to enjoy a really good sweet treat.

As soon as we walked through the door, the owner was cooking in the kitchen and made a point to come out and chat. TRUE ITALIANS here !! I started with a glass of Merlot which was served in an actual glass- just like in the old country . I don't know what there house wine is but it was smooth and absolutely perfect with my meal. We enjoyed the eggplant parm, chicken Romano and the kids pizza. The sauce is absolutely delicious and if you're a true foodie or Italian, you can tell it's not the "out of the can sauce". The dining room was casual with a beautiful vintage hint of Italy in every detail surrounding you. I'm so happy i tried this place and I promise you we will be back soon.

Poor Food Quality and Service at Red Robin Tarentum at dine in, manager follow up and a better…read moreexperience with deliver following the disappointing dine in. My wife and I stopped in for dinner at Red Robin in Tarentum shortly before 9:20 PM. Despite the restaurant being nearly empty (only two other tables with customers), our dining experience was deeply disappointing. We ordered immediately after being seated, yet our appetizer (cheese sticks) didn't arrive until 9:46 PM - lukewarm after a 25-minute wait. Our main course arrived just four minutes later, suggesting poor timing in the kitchen. My wife ordered her favorite - the Whiskey River BBQ burger - but received a greasy mess with the bottom bun completely soaked through. There was literally a puddle of grease on her plate. Her fries were cold and hard. My burger came with pink in the middle as requested, but the bacon was burned with half on the burger and half just tossed on the plate. The egg was partially well-cooked and partially burnt. My garlic fries (which cost an extra $2.99) were cold, greasy, soggy, and frankly inedible. We had to request fry refills ourselves, hoping to get fresh ones. While the replacement fries came in hot baskets, they were only warm and still disappointing in quality. Our server Violet was pleasant during her limited interactions - when we sat down, when she delivered our food, and when she brought replacement fries. However, we never received water refills, and management never checked on our table during the entire meal. The only people who seemed to be enjoying themselves were the kitchen staff, who were loudly laughing and having a great time while we sat with our subpar food. I understand restaurants need to close on time, which is why we deliberately ordered quickly, but the lengthy food preparation time meant we ended up staying past closing anyway. At $50 for two people, this meal wasn't even on par with fast food quality, which is especially disappointing when every dollar counts these days. Had a manager been visible during our visit, I would have shared this feedback in person. After our disappointing visit, Eric, the manager, called me personally following my survey submission. He listened attentively as I shared our experience and seemed genuinely concerned. He apologized and promised to speak with his staff about how our situation was handled. Eric was really eager to earn back our business. He mentioned he'd be sending us some special offers and a little something to make up for our poor service. He assured me our next visit would be much better, which I appreciated. His follow-through actually prompted me to suggest Red Robin for a team lunch today. The verdict from my coworkers was mixed but generally positive. The burgers and sandwiches got decent reviews - my Royal Red was a bit overcooked but satisfactory, one colleague rated his burger a 7/10, and someone else raved about her chicken sandwich. The universal complaint was about the fries, which everyone found disappointing despite being just minutes from the restaurant. Overall, our delivery experience was definitely an improvement over our dine-in disaster, though not quite excellent. Steps in the right direction!

Does anyone know what happened to this place? We went there on a Saturday evening around dinner…read moretime. The first red flag was that there was a few people there. The second was that the rest rooms were disgusting. We ordered our food. I had the fried shrimp and my wife had the fish and chips. When the food arrived, the fish was horrible. Burnt, dried out and disgusting. It looked like fish jerky. My wife didn't get her fries so she had to ask for them again. She sent the fish back and ordered a burger, which didn't look a whole lot better. The waiter, who seemed to be fairly new was very polite and pleasant. We had to ask for silverware twice and were told that they didn't have any clean silverware!?. The waiter washed some for us and we were given forks. My shrimp was overcooked almost to the point of being burnt. I don't blame the waiter, he did what he could. He didn't even have a pad to write down the order. He had to use a napkin. Probably the worst dining experience we've ever had. They did comp my wife's meal but we're done with Red Robin. Too bad.
