My fiancé and I went for a date night there tonight and we were truly shocked at how reasonable the prices were for the quality and portion sizes! Our bill was about $75, we each had a beer, we shared wings as an appetizer and got shrimp scampi & chicken alfredo for dinner. I have never seen this man eat a salad but he devoured the side ceaser!  It was a solid 1000/10 and we will definitely be returning!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were a large group and the menu is very diverse and I wasn't sure what the place was best known for. Well, we all ordered something different and everyone's food was absolutely outstanding.  Pat, the owner, came over and talked to us and then gave us a personal tour of the entire establishment. It was special.  Great food, and amazing customer experience. When you are in Happy Valley, don't miss out!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Food was excellent! Great service, staff and atmosphere! We ate there on a Friday night - live music (piano/vocals) was good quality and volume was set that you could still have a conversation and enjoy the meal (and we sat right near the musician). Hadn't been in the building since the Damon's days, have done a great job with the place and all the PSU memorabilia is really cool to see!  Definitely recommend!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I enjoyed eating here, it’s walkable from the nextdoor hotel! Had beverages and some sort of BBQ cheese steak - I enjoyed it more than I ever expected. Packed with meat. The waitress was so cheery and sweet. I loved the vibes. Love draft ciders too…. I’d pick the hotel again just so I could drink there and waddle back!

What We Stand For

We believe a great restaurant is built on more than just a menu. It’s about showing up consistently, treating people right, and serving food you’re proud to put your name on. Everything we do is guided by a few simple principles that shape the experience from the kitchen to the table.

Quality, Always

From ingredients to execution, we don’t cut corners. Every dish is made with intention and attention to detail.

Hospitality That Feels Human

No scripts. No attitudes. Just genuine, welcoming service that makes you feel comfortable the moment you walk in.

Consistency You Can Count On

Whether it’s your first visit or your 50th, you should know exactly what to expect, and leave satisfied every time.
