This family owned gem is definitely a must stop if you're nearby. Take out or dine in the food is consistent. When you enter this small but very charming restaurant you will be greeted by one of the family members that run the place. All of the people working are beyond friendly and have that small town charm you can't find anywhere anymore. I usually order a salad with either chicken or shrimp that always has fries on it, you're in Pittsburgh how can't you have fries?!? All of the food however is solid from the Italian dishes to the sandwiches to the burgers. It never disappoints!!! The prices are reasonable and the portions are generous. If you have room for desert or just need to order a cake for an occasion; the cakes are out of this worlds. Classic looking but full of flavor!! Overall it's a staple in monongahela and one of the best places around in my book.
