Got seated right away and it took 15 minutes to get acknowledged and order a drink which took 15 minutes to get. Ordered dinner and it's been 20 minutes which isn't bad but drink is empty. Haven't seen the server since she took my order. Hope the food is better than the service. read more

Amazing Pizza & Hoagies! Very quick take out service and make sure to try out some of the bakery items the cupcakes are my favorite!

I cannot say enough good things about how Rodney's accommodates our family. (We were there for Father's Day lunch) My son is in a wheelchair and they always make our party of ten feel comfortable and special. The staff is attentive and courteous. The food is great. The overall atmosphere is cheery and welcoming. I am a big fan of Rodney's, and I want to thank everyone there for their excellent customer service! read more

Rodney's is just off Route 30 on Arona Road in Irwin, PA. Rodney's is a classy independently owned restaurant featuring American standards and a solid pasta menu. If you needed a nice place to take someone that won't break the bank, Rodney's is a dependable choice. Rodney's also offers catering services for parties and weddings. I like their large fish sandwich and I also like their wedding soup. read more

I can't believe it's taken me this long to write a review for Rodney's. I have been here on numerous occasions over the past several years, and each experience leaves me questioning the one before. Reason being, food and service (especially service) is hit or miss. Some good points: About 10 years ago, I organized a bridal shower here. The food was good, we were given decent selections, and everything was reasonably priced. The bride and guests were pleased, so overall, it was a success. I was also here for a friend's surprise 30th birthday party and my aunt's 75th birthday. Both events were also fine. The food is fine, nothing exciting, but good. There is also a nice sized deck out back, which for me is the biggest draw, especially in the summertime when it's nice to sit outside and either eat dinner or have drinks with friends. Some drawbacks: If you are having a large get-together, there is an upstairs room which can be rented for $50 (last time I checked). However, I was told they will not split the bill in any way. So, if you wanted to split the bill between a few people or pay for the room but have everyone pay for their own meals and drinks, forget it, they will not do that. Also, there is a strange transition time in the evening between late dinner-goers and those coming for drinks and mainly to hang out. There is a bar area, a dining room, a larger dinner room that kind of transitions into a dance floor and a stage for bands, and the outside area. So, if you're coming for a late dinner, they will charge you a cover. It's something that's always bothered me about the place. When my husband and I came for the surprise birthday party, we were asked to pay a $5 cover...unreasonable in my opinion since we were there for a sit down dinner / party. Naturally, I refused. Also, even though there is a pretty large parking lot, it can be hard to find a space since the place gets pretty packed in the evenings and weekends. read more

Always good food and good service. A varied menu of quality items. You can't go wrong when looking for a tasty meal. Make a reservation on the weekends, they get busy. read more

Always a good dish no matter what we order. Place is like a zoo in the summertime. Most weekends you have to park across the street

On a road trip, we stopped with 4 friends at Rodney's. We had a very enjoyable dinner and our waitress Jenna chatted with us. My husband somehow left his credit card there, and we had no idea it had happened. Jenna remembered where we said we were staying and called to let us know the card was there. Since no one was able to go back to pick it up, Jenna offered to have someone drop it off at the hotel. Lisa, another server stopped by the hotel and personally handed me our credit card. She would take no payment for going out of her way for us. The food was excellent and the servers went above and beyond. Bonnie W, W. Chicago, IL read more

The food variety and atmosphere make this a great place for family and friends dining.

I highly recommend the Wedding Soup and Chicken Crouquettes....they were homemade and well done! Nice surprise for choosing the place based on billboard. read more

I recently went back here after saying I would never come back about 3 years ago. I was very impressed with how much they improved! There menu offered great options, and the dining area was updated and cleaner. That night, we bought multiple appetizers: the spinach artichoke dip, cheese sticks, and fried zucchini! All was made to perfection. My friend bought a fish sandwich and it looked delicious as well! The prices were reasonable, and the staff was great. I would defiantly come back after this experience! read more

What a pleasurable dining experience! Above-average menu offerings, wonderful food, appealing bar, and top-notch service set in an absolutely stunning décor--also features an outdoor dining area. Seems to me to be the area's best kept secret.... read more

Great outdoor dining and bar area with good food selection. Love to go in the summer when the outdoor area will s filled with plants and flowers! read more

Beautifully decorated restaurant with an impressive menu and wonderful food. We dine here at least once a month and are never disappointed. PS: We went for Sunday dinner last September and decided to be seated in the lovely outdoor dining area. Very pretty but too much traffic noise from the close-by Interstate Highway. We'll dine indoors from now on. read more

This was our second visit to Rodney's. Because of the horrendously poor waiter service, we won't be returning. Pasta dinner was good, Reuben sandwich decent. Stromboli was extremely disappointing. Lots of dough, nothing inside. Composed a detailed email and sent to the email address on Rodney's website. Never received a response. Enter at your own risk. read more

Went with friends wasn't impressed, had been there in the past and food seemed so much better. Maybe it was what I ordered but a friend with our group wasn't tickled either. Sorry Rodney's not again read more

Love the food here! Staff is friendly and the patio is great to sit at for a nice evening dinner. Great place to go with the family.

I was weary of trying a mom and pop restaurant deep in the suburbs but this place is really good. I recommend the hoagies, their pizza and their dinners. The food tastes like it's homemade, not frozen and then microwaved. Highly recommend this place. read more

We stopped at Rodney's for a bite to eat. First had a drink in bar, then took our drinks and asked for table outside. We sat outside for 20 minutes while waitresses served other tables. None looked at us or asked if we needed anything...my husband went inside and told hostess and she said maybe our drinks confused the wait staff?? So we sat for about 5 minutes more,2 waitresses came out (still ignored us) so we got up and as we walked out from patio to restaurant the waitress stopped and said she wasn't told that we were her table (but she was already out there after my husband went in to complain) Was the food good? We don't know, but won't back... read more

The food was ok, our server was the WORST. What should have been an hour lunch, was almost 2. It took her 15 minutes to come to the table, then another 15 for our drinks, 38 minutes later, we received our sandwiches. Then never saw Susie again! Had to ask another server for our check. read more

First time visiting Rodney's. We ordered the Fettuccine du-Marie and the Seafood Aglio Olio. The seafood aglio was bland. The fettuccine was drowning in sauce. Ordered take out (yea I know but we ordered the take out when we ordered our meal) We ordered the stuff flounder to go along with a side of coconut shrimp. We were charged for a full coconut shrimp meal which would have been fine if the waiter would have let us know, I would have gotten the rice and soup as well! One and done...I won't be back! Not impressed read more

manager and owner treat their staff like shit (seen it first hand) service is absolute garbage. manager has a terrible attitude and she's in the wrong line of work for how miserable she is. owner is rude too. food is mediocre really not worth it. read more

Food is always delicious no matter what you get!! Cold beer and friendly staff! Sometimes a bit crowded but well worth the wait!

Great service (Pam) got our food fast. Everything was perfect. I had a pecan chicken salad and my hubby had the roast turkey. A lot for a serving we ate in the bar area. Very nice read more

Good food good service. Clams were very fresh. Had a seafood pasta dish and it was awesome. Seafood tasted fresh, there was a lot of food I left stuffed. Fresh bread... highly recommend! read more

After the holidays my father-in-law was watching my kid so my wife and I decided it would be nice to go out for an early dinner late lunch just the two of us as we have not gotten to do that in about 2 years. Initially, we planned on going to jCorks but found out they were closed on Sundays no issue yelp for a steakhouse that is not a chain and found this place. Drove up and thought it looked quite nice stepped out of my car and was greeted by the smell of steak and as it was almost 2 and I did not eat anything today I was quite hungry and very excited about this. Go in and pretty quickly (about 5 minutes) we get seated by a super friendly hostess who apologized for the wait (again it was five minutes no need to apologize.) This is where I started to notice a problem the building is built very poorly as the sound is amplified in the dining hall and the parties all around us seemed to be yelling in our ears. It feels like it should have been a quieter restaurant but it was anything but felt like I was in Buffalo Wild Wings. This though cannot be helped so I went ahead and got over it and order my food. Here is Rodney's saving grace the staff seemed to be active and attentive. They were quite busy and as such a little slow but even though it took a while to get our drinks it felt like it took a while simply because they were busy not because they did not care there is a difference. And that I can live with busy is busy I get it restaurants want busy that's how they keep the lights on. We ordered the beer pretzel appetizer (figured if it sounded like a bar and grill might as well eat like it is one) and our food we each got the steak medium-rare. When the pretzels came the pretzels themselves were good but the cheese sauce left something to be desired but still, we were okay with it as our salads arrived. The salad was pretty good I love black olives and they had it on the salad which made me happy only wish I knew it came with that I would have asked for extra. When the steak came though they were almost well done and I really did not want to pay 30 dollars for shoe leather so I asked to send it back. Again the staff was great took the food apologized (both the waitress and the manager) and relatively quickly the steak came out and we were ready to eat. The steak was plated well but the actual piece of steak looked just ehh (Should have taken a picture that's on me) but I was excited anyway so I took the first bite and it tasted pretty bland like they forgot to put salt and pepper on it. So I added salt and butter to it to try to make the flavor come out. To be frank, it kinda tasted like it was frozen I was assured it was not and full disclosure maybe it wasn't I am by no means an expert but I have made frozen steaks before and this tasted similar. But what I do know is it did lack flavor I would say it was on the lower side of acceptable for a steak from Texas Roadhouse but their steak is 10 dollars less than here. This is also not the manager or the waitress's fault they were great but I already sent the steak back once I was not going to be a pain so my wife and I just ate our food. One side note I like brown gravy with my fries and theirs is really good not overpowering with the salt it was actually very good. But I digress, the manager came over told us that we could have a dessert on the house for each of us as both of our steaks were well overcooked. After the mediocre steak, I was not expecting much on the dessert, but boy was I wrong. I had the rice pudding warm with whip cream and cinnamon and my wife had the chocolate cake. The cake was a little too rich for me but my wife loved it and I loved the rice pudding. I did not know rice pudding could be as good as theirs was. It was sweet and warm and had that perfect consistency that when you normally have rice pudding only half of it has that consistency and the other half is too soft or too firm not here everything was perfect. To be honest, before the desert if this meal cost me 40 bucks I think I would have still been a little upset as the steak was really not that great but it came out to being about 70 dollars and it just seems like I should get higher quality food for the cost. I would have given this experience a one-star which I really don't like doing if it was not for the great care the wait staff and manager took to try to rectify the situation and the excellent quality of the dessert. If any of the staff read this please understand I think you guys were great but the quality that you had to work with seems to be the problem, keep up the energy it was appreciated. read more

Very nice, and clean eatery. Did lunch on a Sunday with the family. And can honestly say that everyone with me enjoyed the food. I personally had a cup of sweet chili which was very good and had the chicken Parmesan for my entree. Oh yea and the rice pudding was off the hook good!! The only thing that kept them from a fifth star was the service was just a little slow. I will definitely be visiting again!! read more

Haven't even sat down to eat. I've just been standing around for a half hour waiting for them to give me a table even though we made reservations for a half an hour ago. Which wouldn't be ideal, but it looks like they've sat a bunch of other people since I came in, and when we asked what was up with that they just shrugged. read more

I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich for $8.95 the menu claimed it was a 6oz chicken breast the bun weighed more than the chicken. ripoff

I love your bakery section! The little cakes, brownies and themed cookies, they are perfect for any occasion and taste delicious!! I had the raspberry white chocolate brownie around the holidays, I still dream of it. read more

Very good stuffed pork chop dinner special on Sunday's! Bakery sells cupcakes and baked goods also. Raspberry cupcakes very good. Nice decor also. read more

Went to Rodney's for the first time with the family. Didn't make reservations so we had to sit in the bar area. We had a variety of their pasta and seafood entries. Everyone really enjoyed their dinner. We shared their desserts because they were huge. They food overall was all very good and prices were reasonable. The service was great. read more

Very good service and food. Had the seafood over angel hair and it was excellent . My wife had zucchini pares an and it also was very good and a lot. read more

This place has a nice warm atmosphere, servers are very friendly we had I think her name was louann super nice women! The first time we were here we sat inside nice clean dinning room I had the chicken parm it was amazing would recommend this dish. The second time I had a burger, it was OK you could tell it was a frozen patty wish they would of made them fresh, but we sat outside and their deck is beautiful. My fiance and I had some drinks off their drunk menu and both were very good. Would recommend this place! read more

My wife and I met at Rodney's. It was a special place. When we learned that we were going to have a child, we chose their bakery for the Gender Reveal Party. We asked them to bake a cake with either blue or pink icing inside, depending on the results of the Sonogram. I delivered a sealed envelope to them (not knowing the results). On the day of the reveal party, my wife and I cut into the cake and the icing was pink! We were joyous, as were all our guests and family members who were present and on FaceTime. We pronounced the results on Facebook. Twenty minutes later, someone suggested we open the envelope (which they returned to us; thank God!). The note inside read: Congratulations! It's a boy! We immediately called the restaurant, and we felt like we were annoying them, when it was their mistake! After two phone calls and one in-person conversation, they reimbursed the $25 cost of the cake. All we got was a check in the mail, no sorry, no note, no emotion. If I ate there, and they overcooked my steak, they would take it off the bill. They ruined our party, and we got reimbursed. That's it. No apology, no effort to say "I'm sorry," no effort to make us feel good about Rodney's again. Obviously, the owner didn't care about the screwed up cake, and probably doesn't care about this review. Out of principle, I will never visit Rodney's again. read more

Went there last week with a group of 5 other friends for lunch. Our waitress told us the special was a personal pizza and a tossed salad for $8.45, or $8.95 cannot remember which. My one friend asked "is that with any toppings we want" and she said yes. We all ordered the special and when the bill came, we all were charged and additional .99 for each topping. We figured that was an additional $17 dollars. When questioned the waitress said I should have told you there was an up charge. Later that same day, my daughter visited that restaurant. They both ordered a sandwich, which the menu stated would be served with chips. When the sandwiches arrived, there were french fries with each, they thought, well maybe this what is considered chips, when the bill arrived they were both charged an additional $2.00 for fries. So I figured that Rodneys made an additional $21 sneaky dollars that day. For me, the food was mediocre. read more

We had our dinner there for our renewal of vows last May - about 20 people. We were not terribly impressed with the food or the service, but thought we would give them another chance for our grandson's communion luncheon. I called Sunday and was told I was penciled in and there wouldn't be a problem, but was transferred to the banquet director's voicemail. I left a message with all the details and left both my cell number and my husband's. We didn't get a return call. Wednesday evening I called and was told we were NOT in the reservation book and was given over to the banquet director, who informed me they were booked. So I have lost three days to find another restaurant. If I hadn't called myself, who knows how much time I would have lost. I will never go to this restaurant again. Recommend that if you have a function where you want to have a gathering GO SOMEWHERE ELSE! Obviously they have no consideration for their customers. If i could give no stars I would. read more
