Pile up
Valerie V.

Restaurant is clean, service fast and friendly. Food was on point. My brother ordered the pile up, and really enjoyed it, it had everything from home fries to eggs and toast. I had a BLT, bacon was crisp and home fries were seasoned perfectly.

This review isn't based on one visit to The Turnaround, but rather multiple meals over the past two years. We've had breakfasts, lunches, & dinners there and have not once been disappointed. While I can't point to specific examples of what makes this place deserve 5 stars, I can say that we have had consistently good food and good service at reasonable prices! It sits on top of Large Hill on Route 51 South in Jefferson Hills, PA and is aptly named The Turnaround as that section of 51 is a divided highway and you likely have to turn around to get there or when leaving. It might be a little hard to spot. The font on the sign doesn't stand out among the other businesses. It's definitely a great place to visit. I think you'll be pleased if you do! I've added a photo of the restaurant taken from their Facebook page.

We just finished a delicious breakfast at Turnaround. I had fantastic homemade biscuits and gravy. My husband had the big breakfast. Everything was made to order and very tasty. It's worth driving for!

Stuffed meatballs on ricotta cheese covered in sauce and melted mozzarella cheese. Delish!

I made my first-ever visit to Yoli's on 885 this past fall. Growing up in the area, I have had…read moreYoli's several times at different events or by take-out, but this was my first time dining in at the restaurant. Yoli's Cucina and Crafthouse is located at the intersection of State Route 885 and Payne Hill Road. The building has been other restaurants in the past, but Yoli's has occupied the space for nearly a decade. It is very easy to locate from the road. There is a private parking lot as well. This is not a heavy business/commercial area, so it's very easy to park and navigate into the restaurant. My visit was on a Friday night this past August. We chose to come after seeing a Facebook post about "Friday Night Lights," which was extended hours on select Friday nights when the TJ High School Football Team was playing at home. My family and I attended the game, and usually will try to find a pizza place to go to afterwards. Since we saw the post for this, we decided to give it a try. We left the football game a little early, and arrived to the restaurant around 9:15 PM. Since the game was barely over, we were one of the first few groups in. The longer we were there, the more people filtered in from the game. It was not completely full though, so no problem getting a seat at a table or the bar. There are plenty of seating options. The dining room has many four-top tables, some booths, and bar-height four-tops surrounding the bar. Of course, there are bar seats. In the back, there are also several longer tables. I assume this room can be rented out and/or reserved, but on this night they had it open for dine-in. As advertised on Facebook, there was a special menu for this after-hours time. It was a limited menu with $10 Pizzas, $10 Yoli Rolis, and $3 White Claws and Domestic Bottles, plus other items. We were not given regular menus, but instead papers that had the limited menu printed. It listed all of the different items, however, it had no descriptions. This was an issue for us, since we were not regulars of the restaurant. Our server acted really strange about this honestly, and would not give us a regular menu to look at when we requested it for the descriptions specifically. So instead, we had to literally ask her what was in every single sandwich, what all of the toppings available for the pizzas were, and any other specifics about any items. I understand in theory why they made the menu like this, but it should have included item descriptions. It makes sense that they do not want customers trying to order off of the regular menu, since they are not serving everything. But, eliminating descriptions is an issue. This was the first "Friday Night Lights" of the season, so it is possible that this improved for other ones moving forward. Following that confusion about the menu, we placed our orders. Our food was ready in about 25 minutes. My mom and I split an 8-Cut Mushroom Pizza. My fiancé ordered The Baller, which was a half-size meatball hoagie with marinara sauce and melted provonello cheese. My dad ordered The Drunk Fish, which was a half-size Yuengling battered haddock with melted provonello cheese, house greens, and house tartar. Both sandwiches came with fries. We each enjoyed our food. The pizza was more than enough for the two of us, and we even had some leftover to enjoy the next day. It is not super thick, but it is not a New York slice, either. A good in-between. Both of the sandwiches were okay, but the portions with the fries were generous. I personally liked the fries. Overall, we had no real complaints about the meal. Everything came out in a timely manner and prepared well. The value of our meal on this night was great. Some of us got some drinks, but for the food it was only $30 before tax. Hard to beat that, especially considering it was four adults. I appreciate them having these specials! The staff here was average, all considering. As detailed, not being able to see the descriptions for the menu items was really bizarre, and unhelpful from a customer service perspective. Otherwise, we had no issues with the service or our waitress. I am glad I got the chance to dine in at Yoli's! As stated, I have had their pizza many times, but never dined in. We had a positive experience overall, but as detailed there are some areas for improvement, specifically relating to the limited menu/after hours events. I hope they continue to have success with these, and improve on them for the future. In an area with very few locally-owned restaurants, it is nice that Yoli's is around and continues to be successful. I hope to come back to try more of their menu on a typical business day, especially the Yoli's Rolis. I believe the "Friday Night Lights" is an incredible idea, and promotes a better community. If you find yourself in the Century III/South Hills area, definitely give this restaurant a try!

I am extremely picky about the oat milk I keep and use in my home and this was the first coffee shop I have ever been to that vocalized and prioritizes offering dairy free options that isn't full of junk ingredients. Their matcha is sweetened with honey. I usually opt out of all sweeteners but decided to go for it here. It was great! A little too sweet but I didn't feel so bad knowing it was local honey and not refined sugary syrups. I grabbed a regular latte - no sweeteners for a friend and she raved about it! I was hoping to grab some local microgreens they advertise on their website but I didn't see any in the case. They did have a few salads for a grab and go option that I thought was nice for a quick lunch on the road. I would definitely be back when in the area again!

The parking lot is so small and probably fits about 6-7 cars, if everyone parks right (you know what I mean). I couldn't get into the parking lot because every time someone would leave, someone else would immediately pull in. I had to park across the street at Dairy Queen (sorry, DQ!) The line at Lazy Dreamer was out the door and wrapped around inside, but moved surprisingly quickly! I'd say we waited about 10-15 mins to order and there were at least 10 people ahead of us. The staff are friendly and move quickly to make your drinks and grab your food. They don't have much seating inside, as the building is small, but they do have a small bathroom and also a couple patio sets out front. My only wish is that they'd be able to expand both the inside space and the parking lot! But I guess the crowdedness is a result of how delicious everything is. I had a seasonal banana nut latte and it was creamy and delicious. The cinnamon rolls from Oram's are offered here and they're huge, fluffy, and tasty! Don't miss this place.

The dining area is roomy and bright some spots are a bit too close especially along a knee wall. That separates the bar tables from the dining room.

Our waitress was very nice and super helpful. They certainly have a good staff. The food was very good. It's surprising how hard it was to find a good home style meal in this area.

Instead of chip and salsa when you come in, you get a basket of chicharrones. We also got the dip sampler because you can't never go wrong with it! Then, the difficult task to pick a main dish! They have a fun selection of uncommon dishes which is super cool. My friend got the Birria ramen and loves it! I tried the broth and it was super flavorful. My husband got the Pittsburgh burrito which has fries inside. He said the fries in it were so good! My vegetarian friend got a solid mushroom taco and then got a little wild and got the cactus taco!
