    Philly steak sub with fries.
    Kenny S.

    The sub was delicious as all of the meals I've had here have been. Get the fries! The service was good too.

    While heading to Erie, I stopped by McKean Tavern (TAV) for lunch. The place has been in business for many years and the current ownership has done a great job in renovating this local hangout. The atmosphere inside is welcoming, very low key, and clean. I took a seat at a high top table in the front bar area, since all of the regulars were sitting up at the bar enjoying their beers and chatting about their fishing trips. There is also a back dining area and an outdoor patio area in the back. The bartender promptly brought me a menu and took my drink order. For lunch, I ordered the Turkey Club ($7.99 plus tax) served with kettle chips. My lunch was served to me in under 10 minutes. The stacked turkey club was HUGE, which had lots of sliced deli turkey, thick slices of bacon, American cheese (orange), tomato, lettuce, mayo between thick slices of toasted bread. The chips were crunchy and were salty. The turkey club was very good and priced very reasonably. I was very full afterwards. The check was brought over soon after I finished lunch. Overall, McKean Tavern (TAV) is a good friendly local bar and restaurant!

    Unwelcoming setting unless you know people there. Food and drinks overpriced, and management is a serious disappointment.

    I am in town visiting and was looking for a place that had Pittsburgh style salads with fries and…read morethis place came up in Yelp, so I ordered 2 of their steak and fries salads with blue cheese for take out. The place is just outside of town. The inside is cute with wood floors and ceiling. Looks kinda like a cabin inside. The staff was really nice and the salads were really good. While I was waiting for my food the bartender said to call in my orders instead of online ordering with door dash because the prices are better. I really appreciated her advice. So much so we ordered takeout again the following evening. We got the Outlaw burger and fries, the Cuban, and some fried pickles. Everything was really good. The Cuban was really big, I could only eat half. My boyfriend said his burger was a little more pink in the middle than he prefers but that it was still good. Next time I'm home visiting him, we will definitely be back. The portions are decent. Prices are a little bit higher than expected but the staff and food make it worth it to me. I know stuff costs more now so with that in mind too, I realize businesses have to adjust. It's worth checking out if you're in the Meadville area.

Definitely a fun roadhouse look outside and completely renovated inside, great bar, bunch of TVs and fun atmosphere. Menu was great, tons of good draft beers, bourbons and specialty cocktails. Probably 30 things on the food menu I would order. Lots of BBQ items mixed in. Burnt ends were tremendous. Wings were delicious. Brisket wrap was really good. We'll visit again next time at Allegheny College. Glad we found this gem.

    In response to Milen D's recent review of Firestones(which I witnessed)…read more I honestly can't decide what's more embarrassing: your experience at the restaurant or the fact that you thought this review was worth posting. You apparently walked in expecting the entire establishment to revolve around your very specific demands, got disappointed, called someone a "clown," accused them of lying, and then produced this barely decipherable masterpiece of nonsense. The staff didn't fail you--you failed to understand where you were, what they offered, and apparently how restaurants work. And judging by the grammar and coherence of this review, I'm not sure you were in any condition to be evaluating anyone else's performance. Being unhappy with a meal is one thing. Throwing a tantrum because a restaurant didn't conform to whatever bizarre expectations you had in your head is another. Do everyone a favor next time: stay home, lower your expectations, and let the adults enjoy their dinner without having to witness another episode of The World's Most Confused Customer. The restaurant got one bad review. You got permanently immortalized as the person who wrote it. I'd say one of those is considerably harder to recover from.

    Firestone's Kitchen…read more This was the BEST pizza I've had in Erie as a traveller looking to settle here. I've tried 3 others, mostly very flat on crust or flavor (all independent places). Firestone's pizza has an excellent char, solid sauce and flavorful toppings. The restaurant also has a beer/wine store, and a eye pleasing meat counter/butcher. I have no complaints - friendly service, fair priced pizza for excellent quality, and the liquor section has some charm to the decor. ***From the road, look for Gordon's (even though Firestone Kitchen is the eatery). Gordon's is more prominent from the road.

    OnionRingus Gigantincus !!!…read more The Blackout Burger Bar is an establishment focused on...You guessed it, Burgers. This Burger Bar is located in a strip mall, minutes away from The Grove City Premium Outlets, gas stations, hotels, shops and other restaurants. Blackout can be a very busy place, so be warned, as it caters to a mix of locals, hotel guests and the outlet mall shoppers. Luckily, I went just before the dinner rush on a Saturday and was seated quickly. The menu has a selection of items, including their featured and more popular burgers. You also have the option of building your own burgers, and every table comes with a build-your-own sheet with multiple choices for customizing your burger. I ordered the 'Range Roaming Bison Burger' with bacon cooked to medium well, as you have a choice on how you want your patty cooked. I also ordered a side of their monstrous, massive onion rings that they are also known for. The food came out quickly, and my burger was cooked as I ordered it. The Onons rings were very crispy on the outside and were still hot inside as I got to the inside of them. They also have salads, soups, chilli, featured sandwiches, and apps on the menu. There is a beer menu that has standard and craft beer selections. The Blackout is a very popular spot for beers, burgers, sandwiches and accommodates people of all ages. Overall, a great experience, with good food and good service, and a place I would want to try again.
