I've been passing by on route 80 for literally decades, always intending to stop one day but always not the right time of day or in too much of a hurry. So glad we finally stopped. Early Saturday dinner. Easy off and back onto the highway, even with the current construction. Decor is interesting and fun. Food was quite good with choices varying from inexpensive sandwiches to much more decadent entrees. I opted for a lighter choice. A sandwich with truffle fries. My wife a bit more limited with her gluten free choices and was forced to have filet :-), which she said was perfectly medium rare and well seasoned. Service was friendly and quick but not rushed. We would definitely stop back. read more

We've been coming to Powerhouse for years, and it's always been one of our go-to spots. Last night's dinner, though, was on an entirely different level. The new chef is bringing such a fresh, creative energy to the menu. We started with calamari served with a black garlic aioli that was absolutely delicious. For my entrée, I had scallops over creamy polenta with pomegranate seeds, pomegranate molasses, fresh mint, and lemon. The combination was bright, balanced, and incredibly flavorful. It was one of those dishes that makes you stop between bites just to appreciate how well everything works together. A big part of what keeps us coming back is our waitress. We always ask to sit in her section because her service is consistently outstanding. She's warm, attentive without hovering, and her recommendations have never steered us wrong. She clearly knows the menu and genuinely wants guests to have a great experience. It's exciting to see a restaurant we already loved taking chances with fresh, seasonal ingredients and unexpected flavor combinations. We shared our excitement with our waitress, and she and the chef were genuinely thrilled to hear how much we enjoyed everything. Powerhouse has always been a favorite of ours, but this felt like the start of an exciting new chapter. We can't wait to come back and see what the chef creates next. read more

Powerhouse Eatery delivers a memorable dining experience with excellent food, warm service, and a cozy atmosphere -- the perfect stop after visiting the monastery just up the road. We started with the French onion soup, which was rich, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying. They also brought out fresh warm bread with raspberry butter, a standout touch that was absolutely delicious. For entrées, the pulled pork sandwich was fantastic, and their burgers were equally impressive -- juicy, well‑seasoned, and cooked just right. The braised beef risotto is truly to die for, packed with deep flavor and perfectly creamy. The 1/2 rack BBQ ribs were excellent as well, tender and smoky, served with fresh French fries that rounded out the plate perfectly. Service was top‑notch. Our waitress checked on us multiple times, making sure we had everything we needed and creating a genuinely welcoming experience. Overall, Powerhouse Eatery is a great spot with consistently delicious food and outstanding service. I'll definitely be back. read more

Delicious meal at the Powerhouse with my fiance and a friend, to the tune of cocktails, apps, dinner and dessert. The restaurant was staged beautifully and decorated for a between-the-holidays meal, and even though it was packed there was only a low undertone of voices from the surrounding tables. Our waiter was fantastic and gave honest, informed suggestions that showed great menu knowledge. The cocktails were creative, well-balanced and refreshing; we tried the pomegranate cosmo, winter maple old fashioned, mistletoe mule, holiday margarita, and butterscotch espresso martini. The whipped ricotta and poached pear crostini really stood out and was an incredible way to begin the meal, but don't sleep on the bacon wrapped scallops. I could have eaten a bowl of that sweet corn puree and even though it's a party favorite, the smokey/sweet bacon/scallop combo was even more crisp/tender than most their kind. For entrees, we rattled off some Chilean sea bass (w/ citrus beurre Blanc), linguine and clams, and spicy chicken pappardelle, finishing with a few lunges at their Classic House Made, original 1989 recipe, Peanut Butter Pie. Normally my fiance and I split our entrees; unfortunately, I couldn't come up from the Sea Bass long enough to even offer her a bite. It was really a wonderful sauce, and a perfect amount to swirl around in the risotto. I was able to score the remainder of the clam linguine as leftovers, and even heated up in the microwave two days later it still qualified as a top three clam linguine dish I've ever had; buttery, lemony, garlicky goodness. read more

Devin provided excellent service. We love this restaurant. Great food and a cool atmosphere. We visited the PE on Sunday for an early dinner. We started with the meatballs. They were delicious but could have been a little hotter in temperature. I had the prime rib with green beans and fry's. The rib was cooked perfectly. Ended with the strawberry- rhubarb cobbler. If you are in the White Haven area, stop in for a delicious meal. read more

Positives: Great ambiance and an awesome drink menu. Negatives: my issue is that they need more wait staff. Our waiter was handling inside and outside tables. We were a party of 6 with a 7pm dinner reservation. We were ten min early, but were seated immediately. Drinks were ordered and came out after 20 minutes. We ordered appetizers which condidted of soups, wedge salads and oysters. It goes downhill from here. We were brought bread for the table at 7:45. Appetizers came out a little bit after that and they were very good. Entrees came out at 8:40 and we were one of the few customers left in the restaurant. I ordered a crab crowned filet mignon. Flavor was ok, but the food looked and tasted like it was sitting under a heat lamp. It was cold in the edges and warm in the center. Seasonal vegetables were green beans which were cold and I ordered a rice pilaf which appeared to be white rice with diced carrots. Not what I imagined for rice pilaf. I ate the steak, but not much else. Dessert was great. We had creme brulee. There seems to be a staffing issue as our waiter was all over the place. After finishing my drink and 2 glasses of water I sat empty until the food arrived at which point, the water was filled and I had to initiate to ask for a 2nd drink. I would give this place a 2nd chance but it's a 45 minute drive to gamble with a 2nd experience. But they definitely need to fix whatever staffing issue they had because that experience was not worth $200 a couple. read more

This is our third trip here and as always the food was wonderful! Our only issue was not prepared to spend almost two hours there and over an hour for our food. Our waiter was great! Upbeat and always on the move! It seemed he was the only waiter there so maybe that contributed to the pace. The food is totally worth the wait! We will always recommend and continue to come here! read more

Very dark road to the area but amazing interior. Waiters were nice and attentive but the food took close to an hour to come out. Love their bread and their specialty butter. Delicious and keeps you wanting more. The stuffed mushrooms were a great appetizer to start off. Great flavors. 5/5 The duck was a hit and miss. In general the cook was great. Needed more sauce but the not all the fat was rendered well so you ended up with a few super chewy pieces that becomes unpalatable. Considering how few pieces it's a shame. 2/5 Overall it was an ok experience. Might have had better luck with a different main. read more

The Powerhouse Eatery is one of the best places to get a high end (meaning expensive) meal in the area. The ambiance of a power house was very cool. I had the 12 ounce NY Strip with fries and green beans. The service was great even though Karen was overloaded with tables. The fries were delicious and the green beans were cooked to perfection. My steak, while cooked as I ordered and flavorful, was covered with a reduction sauce that masked the poor cut of meat. For a rib eye it would have had an excessive amount of fat, however for a Strip steak I felt it was unacceptable. The reduction hid large chunks of inter muscular fat that ruined the bite. My dinner companions had the pork and another also had the strip. Both seemed to be very happy with their meal so my steak may have just been a poor cooks selection. read more

Based on the portion sizes and quality of the food, I believe that the current prices are at least 40% overvalued. I give the food quality 3 stars, food prices 1 star, and the service 3.5 stars. With that said, the restaurant was quite crowded so apparently folks enjoy the place. I'm sorry I can't give a higher rating. Management, please take a look at your prices. read more

So, have you been? To this strangely situated restaurant on a lonely road off the 80 Hwy at exit 273? If you haven't been, read this review closely. Then read it again. And make this a spot you frequent. It ain't cheap - but, surprisingly not too expensive. If have you been, then you KNOW I'm right. If you have yet to stop by Powerhouse Eatery - let these words move and entice you to get over to POWERHOUSE EATERY sooner than later. Trust. It's worth it. And this is why... I hadn't been to a steakhouse in years. Reason being they were usually a let down. I know steakhouses - in several states. So it's been... interesting. Happily this was not. This was solid. When we arrived we - after driving through the dark road to get there. The building is very cool. Very Americana. There's plenty of parking. So never a worry. My party arrived and were quickly seated. The hostess was very nice. When seated the runner approached us to let us know what flavor infused butter was being offered today. It was accompanying the basket of warm, crusty bread. Today's butter flavor was Peaches and Cream. It was very subtle. The server introduced himself - DEVIN - and recommended the Wyndridge Apple Cider (going with what is on the menu) I ordered 3 of the ciders and asked for a shot of bourbon to accompany each cider. Take note that it is served cold. I thought the cider would make a great hot toddy. But, it was super delicious cold with the bourbon side. Then it began... We started our experience with Goat Cheese/Crostini appetizer as well as the crispy pork belly. They were each a home run. All I kept thinking was...what's up next? Devin spoke to the soups offered today. A French Onion and a Mushroom Soup. I ordered one each of the soups for us to share. Well, BOTH SOUPS were also amazing! The people in my party also enjoyed them. Came time to order entrées... My two guests both ordered the 4oz filet mignons. Both were accompanied by the baked potato as well as Haricot Verte (French Green Beans) I ordered the NY Strip Steak w/ a Peppercorn Sauce, mashed potatoes and Heirloom Carrots. The steak was delicious. Next time I'll ask for a center cut. The mashed were very very good. The Heirloom Carrots - were a bit dull. Crab Cakes and Cajun Remoulade were tasty. A bit salty for my taste. But, when I return - and I know I will be back many times over - I will give them another try. Taylor - the Food runner - was very polite and charming. The busboy was also very well spoken and easy. The Decor is incredible. When you get inside it's almost unfathomable. The outside doesn't suggest what they've done with the inside. It is quite a work of art. There's a second dining area in the back as well as an outdoor patio. Bathrooms are super clean. And I was informed that when the weather gets better - Springtime - the patio is open and is dog-friendly. Dessert time came and we were again impressed. We order the Cupcake Trio, Peanut Butter Pie and a Crème Brûlée. The Crème Brûlée was outrageous. Definitely the table fave. But, the Trio was delicious. The Peanut Butter Pie was a bit too sweet for my taste but, my guests enjoyed it!! All-in all a great time was had by all!! The courses were properly timed by Devin, which btw not every server understands. I am looking forward to enjoying another meal here...sooner than later. Thanks again chef!! read more

What a cool environment and reclaim of a unique space. We went on a weeknight, and while some of the menu was unavailable, they told us up front to mitigate potential disappointment. I had the maple glazed pork loin, mashed potatoes, and green beans. It was perfectly cooked and seasoned. No extra salt or pepper needed. The dessert menu looked amazing but a little weird as the prices were missing, so we skipped that portion. The bread and apple cinnamon butter were good. We plan on visiting again when in the area for work. I wouldn't recommend for kids as there is no kid menu. read more

Just had dinner here- 4 oz filet with baked potato and green beans; hubby had shrimp Francaise with same sides. We both enjoyed our meals, although my filet was a little overcooked. Cocktails and wine were also very good. We shared an apple dumpling for dessert too (which was a tad undercooked!). The ambience of the place was great (even if it was a little chilly inside)- very industrial and befitting a former power plant. The service was very good but it was not a busy night (Thursday). I would go again though. The bar area looked fun and it might be a great place for a drink and appetizer! read more

I've been here many times over the last 10 years and the food is always good. I ordered the linguine with clams last night for the first time and it was terrible. Instead of a light, brothy, garlic, butter and white wine sauce like that dish has everywhere, it instead had a very thick brown gravy that was overpowered with lemon. It tasted like Thanksgiving gravy with lots of lemon in it. My Mom ordered shrimp Francese and it had that same awful gravy/lemon sauce and she didn't even eat it because she didn't like it either. I have never sent something back once in my life but should've sent that back. The other person with us had steak and lobster and as always it was perfect. Don't get anything with that sauce. read more

This place is amazing! From the front staff to the waiter all service was superb! The facility is rich in history with it being an old power house. The seating was very comfortable and very little noise. Music was acceptable playing a variety of pop hits. The food was excellent with a wide variety of items from simple to exquisite items and ample portions. We were full so we got desserts to go and were very happy with our cheesecake selection when we got home. Thanks to all the staff and the chef for making our experience wonderful read more

Another great meal at the Powerhouse. No app this time. Oddly enough it appears that I ordered the same thing last time I was here. So a petit fillet cooked perfectly MR with perfectly prepared green beans. Wow, try the loaded potato. Very nice. I also had a nice micro from New Trail and a great cab with my steak. Friendly service. Great meal; I was so hungry I cut into before taking a photo. Look forward to the next time I'm working in the area. read more

Enjoyed a wonderful dinner at the establishment on 10/18. A late dinner seating and restaurant was still hopping. Appetizer we ordered was mini beef Wellington. We would NOT order that again. Dinner was their amazing pork chop with a veggie compote. And filet mignon with cramp imperial topping. Both beyond excellent. The filet just melted in your mouth, as well as the pork chop. Staff were amazing. Definitely will return with zero hesitation read more

The powerhouse lives up to its name with amazing food and drink! David was my first bartender since 2019, hadn't sat at a beautiful bar (or any), enjoying a nice meal, scratch that, an outstanding gourmet meal in ages, and Dave was awesome. The whole staff greeted me and my wife warmly like regulars, we sat at the gorgeous bar area and had freshly poured Troeggs ales, and ordered what drew me in from photos on Google, the French onion soup, which was as I stated earlier, outstanding; the cheese, bread and soup were in total harmony, not salty despite the cheese, the texture of the top cheese and bread layers were amazing, firm and textured beautifully with the melty quality gruyere fully incorporated in to the bread which stayed firm and never sogged up. We also had a super delicious lobster and crab bisque. Next up was a shrimp cocktail and the Alaskan king crab cocktail, which were incredible, fresh and firm sweet flesh perfectly paired with the cocktail sauce. The final stroke of genius is a peanut butter pie unlike any dessert I've had, it was stupendous, I can't find words to describe how delicious it is, we were so obviously floored by this masterful treat that the restaurant manager gave us an additional slice to take home!!! So grateful. The Beatles wrote a song about a dessert so amazing called the savoy truffle, surely John would have renamed it after the powerhouse peanut butter pie if he had tried this, a menu staple since 1989. We loved it so much we plan to get back here in a week when we return to the area, bring the in laws! read more

Mostly excellent food and one of the best margaritas I've had in particular the pomegranate margarita with a blend of salted and sugar rim. This is one of those restaurants worth going to in PA although it is on the pricier side but you certainly get what you pay for and it's a pretty unique location being a former power station it also helps it's one of the few restraints in the area since there's really no competition nearby to compare this place too. I had the lobster Mac and cheese to start which was good with a solid amount of lobster in there, I then got a lobster roll (yes I was in a lobster mood that day) and I appreciated the amount of meat and overall good flavor although I wish it was a bit larger and with more seasoning it was good but could have been cheaper for what it was. For dessert I had the peanut butter pie which was great just the right size and a smooth creamy taste with a chocolate drizzle on top. Overall if you're interested in an overall solid PA restaurant which is rare give this place a try. read more
