    The bar is smoke free and the food cost is very reasonable. Nice to sit at the bar and get a bite or go into the restaurant.

    PERFECTION That's…read moreexactly what was delivered with not just a meal so good you could cry from pure joy, but the entire experience as a whole. The whole thing was the most unique and best time I have ever experienced dining. The art decor, the music, the dish names, the staff, the pink tree house and frisbee golf outside, the random wu tang clan symbols. This is a memory I will never forget I wouldn't not recommend anything we got The Apps: The brie charcuterie board. That house made strawberry jalapeño jam. I wish they sold it by the jar. Naan bombs. Cajun perfection on the shrimp over the guac and pico with that balsamic glaze. Pork Cheek Tacos. FAT AS FUCK not skimping on filling with the meat. One of the best prepared meats I've ever had and arguably the best taco I've ever had DUCK FUCKING WONTONS. Wonton my ass it was more like a mini empanada but dear fucking lord. Bacon, duck and Swiss cheese stuffed in topped with a FRENCH ONION BROTH GLAZE. I want a party catered with just those. Absolutely stellar THE 32OZ RIBEYES First off $72 for it and it comes with three sides. 0% chance you're getting that from somewhere downtown under $100. AND no way you're getting it this fucking good. COOKED TO PERFECTION. Whatever rub is on that just call it the house crack. It nwas served over a bed of rosemary parm fries. They got soaked in the juices and made it like steroid poutine The side of jalapeño creamed corn. That I think was my second favorite bite there. Holy fucking hell. Desserts Chocolate Cake - Backend richness on the chocolate cake perfect Sweet Potato Pecan Pie - Extra spice on the made me feel like fall was hugging me The Coconut Cream Cheesecake - I want this for my birthday cake until I die Talbot. You are a character to say the least in the best way possible. You have something beautiful. I cannot wait to come back and spend every special occasion here

Currently, this restaurant takes reservations only over the telephone, not online. My husband and I ate one lunch here. The seating hostess and waitress served us promptly and politely. The menu listed foods such as wings, crab cakes, salads, sandwiches, bowls, pierogies, tacos, chicken marsala, and salmon and drinks such as wines, cocktails, mocktails, sakes, and beers. Here are my ratings for what we ate: Duck Wontons - 4.5 stars - Wontons contained bacon, duck, onions, garlic, Swiss cheese, and French onion broth. Very flavorful. Deviled Eggs - 4.5 stars - The deviled eggs were filled with avocado, bacon, and tomato slaw. Shoot the Breeze - 4.5 stars - This entree consisted of a 14-ounce ribeye with chimichurri, pickled red onions, potato gnocchi, and garlic alfredo. The ribeye was juicy. The gnocchi were nicely cooked. Chicken and Ribs - 4.5 stars - My husband ate this special of chicken breast, St. Louis ribs, potatoes, and corn on the cob. He said that the grilling gave a better taste and that he enjoyed the Korean BBQ sauce. You're Doing Great - 4.5 stars - This mocktail contained non-alcholic orange aperitivo, lemonade, cherry, cucumber, and soda. The total price for these five menu items plus a soda and tax was $110, plus a tip. After our meal, my husband and I explored the outside. The waitress said that the Yeti father is named Osirus, the mother is Sasha, and they have two children. We also saw a treehouse, teepee, picnic tables, games, and woods.

    I loved the food ambiance and service at Elia and I would definitely be back! The food was probably…read morea 4/5, the drink I had was a 5/5, and the service was a 5/5 as well. Am looking forward to being back! My server was Tolia (sorry if I'm misspelling/misremembering) and she did an AMAZING job. She was super friendly, made awesome menu recommendations and was a delight to chat to. She recommended I start with the char grilled octopus and this was delicious. It came with capers and a grilled lemon and olive oil and was beautifully presented. The potion was easily finished by just me, so if you have more than 2 people I'd recommend getting more than 1 order of these. It's so delicious. I was then picking between the pastitsio and the moussaka. I was told they both have a strong nutmeg flavor which was not a problem for me. I decided on the moussaka and it was so delicious. It did have a strong nutmeg flavor but not in an overwhelming way. It came with a bechamel sauce on top and layers of eggplant with ground beef tomato and potato. It sort of reminded me of a shepherds pie if you're not as familiar with Greek food. The portion was HUGE - could easily split between 2. I ate almost half of it but couldn't eat the rest although I wish I could've. It was so good. The cocktail I ordered was a nectar spritz (something with "nectar" in the title at least) and genuinely was one of the best cocktails I've had. Definitely beat every other one I had in Pittsburgh this week by FAR. So yummy. I was so impressed with every aspect of my dining experience and would definitely be back!

    Ok, so admittedly I don't look at the menu prior to choosing to jump off the turnpike to grab a…read moresandwich to go. I am from Detroit where Mediterranean food means accessible, quick shwarma and hummus- easy peasy. I walked in and asked for 2 chicken shwarmas to go. The hostess looked at me like I had two heads. I asked for a menu, looked at it and then asked "This is a Mediterranean place, right?" After explaining what I wanted she recommended the meatball sandwich. Meatball sandwich? As my husband approached I explained the options and he asked "This is a Mediterranean place, right?" After debating to leave or not, we agree to wait 15-20 minutes for a chicken pita handheld, described in the pic. We receive our order and it's two flatbreads (see pic). We inquire and the hostess emphatically says we ordered the flatbread. (My husband detests olives so I can assure you he didn't order the olive laden flatbread prepared for us. ). She full on argued with us. We don't eat white bread and cheese for any meal so we 100% did not order this. I can't say the flatbread with no chicken at all but loaded with olives tasted bad (well, my husband would) but the sheer lack of accountability for full on screwing up our order is unacceptable. One more question, in Pennsylvania is "Gyro"pronounced (GI-Roh)? So, maybe in Pennsylvania meatballs sandwiches, crab cakes and sausage sandwiches are Mediterranean, if perhaps that is not what you are looking for, keep looking.

    Timing is Everything!!!…read more I just happened to stop in at the Chop Shop in Downtown Butler, PA, during a recent Heatwave. As my luck would have it, I quickly discovered that this restaurant does not have air conditioning. I'm not sure if it was just offline or if it is permanent; however, be warned!! The restaurant had children and elderly people seated, so I couldn't wimp out and go somewhere else. The Chop SHop is a downtown Butler must-try, and it is three concepts rolled into one. The Chop Shop is a vintage-style eatery serving sandwiches, milkshakes, burgers, vegetarian fare and grilled meats. I ordered their specialty milkshake, which is a loaded milkshake that comes with everything thrown into one Milkshake. Although it was a perfect drink for a heatwave, my milkshake quickly melted due to the heat in the restaurant. For the main course, I ordered the Mixed Grill, which had grilled elk tenderloin, smoked quail, caramelized bacon brussels sprouts, dauphinoise potatoes and a blackberry brandy demi-glaze. The food was awesome, and those potatoes were crazy-good. The Elk was cooked to medium as I ordered, and the quail was tender and juicy. Overall, a good but hot dining experience. The Chop Shop has great food, great service, and one day may serve alcohol in the restaurant, but for now, their food and drinks can be enjoyed without it.

    Just enjoyed a really nice early dinner (4pm) on the lovely patio - perfect weather - with fun live…read moremusic serenading us until a bit after 5pm. Quite a popular spot. Barely any open tables. At times, the music was too loud; we could barely hear each other. Hubs & I arrived a bit early, so we wandered inside the beautifully-restored main house (so pretty!) to the bar & ordered a couple of draft craft beers from their extensive list. I had a fantastic Belgian style ale. The bartender was so friendly and helpful, allowing us a few tastings. She encouraged us to look around - go upstairs - when she noticed us taking pics. She even went outside and saved us 2 rocking chairs on the back porch! The house is really lovely. Upstairs is spacious. The history of the home and the Harmonites is really special-- be sure to read up! When our party arrived, we were able to secure a large outside table (we had reservations for inside as a fallback - though it wasn't busy inside at all; you can't reserve outside tables). We ordered apps for the 5 of us -- trying: * Potato pancakes w/ apple chutney & sour cream - good, not great. The bees certainly loved that apple chutney! * Frickadillen meatballs -- excellent! The succulent meatballs in a yummy mustard cream sauce were quite the hit. * Fried pickles -- odd but somehow quite good! The spicy, crunchy breading went perfectly with the super tart dill pickles, and we all really liked the jalapeño ranch sauce (& I'm no fan of ranch!) which gave quite a kick. For entrees, we really wanted to try some house specialties --- German fare: * Roasted 1/2 rosemary chicken over a rich, creamy spaetzle dotted with fresh roasted wild mushrooms. The rosemary flavor - oddly - didn't really come through, but the cream sauce was excellent, as were the juicy, perfectly cooked (generous in #!) mushrooms. The meal also came with a nice side salad. * Jagerschnitzel - my sis-in-law really liked this, the pork pounded thing, breaded & deep fried with a bacon-onion-mushroom brown sauce which paired nicely w/ house made spaetzle. She really liked the cooked red cabbage which had apple flecked all throughout. * Ruben sandwich -- hubs really enjoyed the slow-cooked corned beef and fresh, flavorful toasted rye bread. The sandwich was accompanied by generous portion of french fries. Dessert -- I was far too full, but hubs wanted some dessert. Sadly, they were out of the pumpkin bread pudding! He got the German chocolate cake which was clearly a disappointment. He thought it was dry, lacking in coconut throughout ("It was just in the middle."), and just "ok." He didn't even finish the slice. Our friends seemed to enjoy their ice cream, though! Not sure the flavor. All told, we had a really nice meal, even though no one spotted any ghostly apparitions by the outside fireplace! Service was fine. We'll definitely be back! The live music, while loud, was quite a treat. Nice that it ended at 5pm so we could enjoy our meals and chat.
