We stopped here for lunch and really enjoyed the experience. It was fun checking boxes on the paper to build your grilled sandwich. Itâs not a big place but they have some tables and some seating along the window. I was surprised they had such a great beer offering as well.
9. Nadya's Restaurant
Reviewed By SouthSkookPorkchop
This place closed a short few months after opening. The new guy leasing the place put together a typical diner type menu that was uninspired at best. Regardless, I will not lament as the joint closed, much as I predicted to many people i know after an awful breakfast. Any new owner should avoid a predictable diner vibe - that market is full in this area with all the Italian pizza places around Oburg, Josies, 3C's and Robin's have the breakfast market cornered. Harken back to the days of Madeline's: a robust bar/pub environment frequented by residents of nearby Pinebrook who are looking for food that is different, daily creative specials, a happy hour, and prices that reflect the quality of the food. Keep lunches $6-$12 and dinners $8-$25 with reasonable booze prices and it will work. The Pinebrook crowd will come back and spend money and make the place as successful as Madeline's if you follow the Madeline's blueprint.

We were in town for the day and certainly wanted to visit the #1 rated restaurant. Service was great but we were disappointed in the soup, chicken noodle, and the chili. We also had a grilled cheese that was good but not exceptional. The menu includes chili, soup and hot and cold sandwiches. There is outdoor seating and take out available.
7. Bum's Rush Restaurant And Pub
Reviewed By SmilinRon9
To be fair, the night we tried Bum's they were very busy and the staffed seemed overwhelmed. That being said, we waited a very very long time for our meal to be served. Which we could of dealt with if the food was outstanding. However it was just OK. Not bad but not great either. It's a casual place that serves burgers and pulled pork,..etc. I tried the jambalaya...it had a great flavor but lacked in the meat department. It only had 2 slices of sausage and very little of any other meats. Mostly just peppers and onions. My wife's pulled pork sandwich was tasty but sloppy and greasy. The entire staff was very friendly and apologetic, so that was a plus. I feel bad about giving Bum's this mediocre review because they are just starting up...but the facts are the facts. We will try it again on a week day when they aren't as busy and see if the experience is better.
6. Deer Lake Pub & Restaurant

Deer Lake Pub & Restaurant provided the perfect venue for our family gathering. A large table comfortably accommodated our group of nine. I chose DLP&R for a number of reasons. One was its proximity to Seton Manor. Two, it accepted reservations. Three, the large menu offered a variety of local dishes which I miss living in Texas. Perogies with caramelized onions and buttery were great! Liver and onions were perfectly prepared sliced thin and with a mild flavor. The turkey dinner was a pleasant surprise because the turkey was "real" turkey, not sliced processed turkey. The shrimp kabob offered tender shrimp which easily can be overcooked. I was able to enjoy Yuengling beer which is not available in Texas. And, freshly-baked rolls were fluffy and tasty. Desserts also were delicious. My only concern was service because it appeared that only one waitress was assigned to the room which was somewhat busy for a Thursday evening. However, she was friendly and handled the room appropriately. We will return on our next trip.

Our local friends invited us to Thanksgiving dinner here. They took the "family style" option and the whole table were passing platters of turkey, ham, mashed potatos, candied yams, and Pennsylvania bread filling (very fluffy and light). Service was fast and friendly and based on the experience I would gladly come back for the regular menu.Apple pie was a high point... seemed fresh made.

We had heard great things about this small-town restaurant and now that we have finally gotten here, we will definitely be returning!Don't let the "small-town restaurant" idea throw you off. This restaurant is definitely top-notch in both atmosphere & food!!!!! As we were waiting for our meals to arrive (that was the only downfall of the evening....a bit slow on the service), we commented that the restaurant was actually quiet & very conducive to a relaxing meal. Too often, we have dined at highly-rated restaurants and have had issues with the noise level. Definitely not a concern here!Our server was extremely friendly and, after we told her that this was our first visit, offered suggestions & more-than-ample descriptions of menu & Special of the Day items.I wanted a simple meal so I ordered the Chicken Quesadillas. Very happy with both the flavor & portion size......had enough leftovers to take home for my next day's lunch. My spouse decided to go with the Prime Rib. It was highly touted by our server and she was right. A flavorful piece of beef, prepared perfectly to his medium-rare request. He was also very impressed with his side dishes........a Baked Potato & Harvard Beets......both served piping hot!!!! We highly recommend a visit to this restaurant. We drove almost an hour to get here......and with the warm, attentive service & wonderful food that we received, we'll be more than happy to put more mileage on our car to continue to dine here in the future.

We ordered burgers and fries- it was good ( better than other fast foods burger joints) the only issue my friend had was his burger was red inside ( ok if thatâs how u like it) so I would suggest you tell them how you like your burger done. We ordered a plate of fries to share but it didnât seem like much, they could have been a bit more generous. Prices were ok would like to try their dinners sometime as well.
