The bartender was great, she was able to get our wing order in right before the kitchen was about to close - and I'm so glad I was able to try the wings! Crispy skin, tender meat, and delicious buffalo sauce that wasn't too spicy for a late night snack, but still had the perfect flavor.

OIP is great for a casual, Italian-style lunch or dinner. We didn't try any larger entrees during…read moreour visit - we had pizza slices on two separate occasions (it was fresh and delicious both times), and we had their fried calamari and a tomato/mozzarella Caprese salad when we dined in. Is it the best quality calamari we've had? Not by a long shot, BUT it did pretty much match my expectations for this kind of spot in a small town like Shamokin. The calamari only consisted of large rings (no tentacles), had a springy texture, and they were fried in regular Italian breadcrumbs rather than flour - I assume they're just bought frozen in bulk from a big supplier, but they were fine! The Caprese salad was fresh and good, and the pizza had very fresh-tasting sauce, melty cheese, and the right amount of crispy underside - I was very pleasantly surprised to have such good quality pizza here. To-go and dine-in service were both great.

We got an order that we picked up, first let me say the lack of customjer service was astounding…read morejust to get an order we put in, seemed like we were bothering them by actually giving them business. The Food: One Italian Sub and One OIP Cheesesteak w/ mush, onion, sweet peppers, American cheese and sauce. Bread was only cut halfway down, put meat in it to the top of their soggy mushy flat bread roll, there also was NO CHEESE, NO Mushroom, and no sauce on it. They only filled half the bread from middle to top. I could have put more meat than that on a hamburger roll. Zero Stars as I do not think I have ever had a worse Cheesesteak in my life. Second The Italian had ham and turkey in it, I mean WTF how hard is it to make an Italian sub. Also, same trick of only cutting the roll 1/2 depth to put one piece of meat per side, you get more meat in a Premade packaged Turkey Hill Sandwich Sub. Zero Stars Lastly the Pizza, a meat lover large size, somebody can't even cut a pizza when it was cut into mismatch size slices with some only 1.5 inches wide. The only thing you could taste on this was grizzled bacon, they didn't even bake it long enough with very doughy uncooked center of the pizza. Sauce tastes like it came from a can. Zero Stars. We will never give business to this chain ever again, for any reason. I would rather pop open a can of Vienna sausages then eat from here. Can't make the food properly, shafting the customer by only filling less than 1/2 the bread depth and on mushy bread, seriously whoever owns this place needs to clean house cause if they keep serving like this, no one will be giving patronage.

I was extremely disappointed with my experience at this restaurant. From the moment our party…read morearrived, we felt unwelcome. We were told we couldn't sit at the bar because some members of our group were under 18, which we understood, but when we asked if we could be seated at two separate tables since our party was large, we were told no. Instead, we were placed in the very back of the restaurant, even though there appeared to be other seating options available. What made the experience especially upsetting was the way we were treated throughout our visit. The staff's attitude toward us felt dismissive and noticeably different from how they interacted with other customers. As people of a different skin color, it left us feeling like we were being treated unfairly because of our race. Whether that was the intent or not, that's how the experience came across, and it made us feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. On top of that, the service itself was poor. It was slow, inattentive, and lacked basic hospitality. Overall, this was a very disappointing experience, and unfortunately I don't plan on returning.
