typical small town diner. Average food, homey atmosphere,cleanliness not particularly impressive. Fine for a drive by breakfast or lunch. Only open till 2pm.
This is the best Mexican I've had since leaving Chicago 15 years ago!! Although I usually dine at the Exeter location, this one is just as good.
We love Alebrije in Mt.Penn! We hardly ever have to wait. The staff is professional, yet friendly. The food is DELICIOUS and most reasonably priced! A truly great value. If you haven't tried them yet, do yourself a favor and go. When you do, ask for Nancy, the best waitress around (actually they are...
This was once a wonderful German restaurant and gift shop. Now it's just barely a bar with a one page menu serving hot dogs and microwavable bar food. I hope the new owners bring it back to the glory it once had. I will keep checking to see if they improve. But I wouldn't recommend this to any one r...
This restaurant used to serve authentic German food which was reasonably priced and delicious. That is no longer the case. The last time we dined here the food was not very good, the portions were smaller, and the prices were increased. In addition, the service was terrible. We waited 15 + minut...
My family and I celebrated many birthdays here over 20+ years. We always looked forward to sharing a great dinner with an incredible Black Forest Cake for dessert while enjoying the live accordion music. Our recent dining experience proved to be less than satisfactory. The dining room had a 2 pie...
i found the alpenhof to be a most unique dining experience its old world charm transported me back to when i toured europe and ate at real german restaurants it was as good if not superior to anything i had in germany i highly recommend it!
This was a good experience for me to have. I liked the German food, and I think everyone I went with did also. I would recomend this for anyone interested! The service was also GREAT, you'll see what I mean if you go there... tschus jen
When my husband and I returned from Germany in 1969 we searched the area for an authentic Germany restaurant. We have been visiting the Alpenhof ever since. 37 years!
Bruno's is a popular local place, but I cannot eat there any more. I ordered my food and the man taking my money actually smoked at the cash register while taking it. Then, the same employee who handled the dirty money- without washing hands or donning plastic gloves- proceeded to make sandwiches, p...
Good pizza, soups, and sandwiches. Smoky, even in the non-smoking section.
Great place to hang out!
Take out General Tso's and Chicken w/broccoli. Tso's was tasty and crunchy - made just right not skipping a step. Chix and broccoli excellent as well. Very good value. My wife said she could hardly leave as she was offered so many 'tastes' by the friendly staff. Just telephoned to tell them how...

I ordered the General Tso's chicken combination platter. It came with fried rice, an egg roll and wonton soup for $7.00. The chicken was too fatty-I got one piece that was just fat and skin. And the rice was stale and not very tasty. The egg roll wasn't bad. I didn't try the soup. Overall, I know I ...

We love this place! It's ambience shouts chinese restaurant that hasn't been renovated in a while--so don't take a date! But we love taking our 2 yr-old to their place! They have lovely service, are real people, with friendly attitudes. It's not the best chinese food I've ever had, but it's good. An...

The owners did change in the past year so ignore the older reviews. The food was excellent. It took about 45 min for us go to get take out, but it was very good.

After change of owners China Penn became one of our favorites for a reasonable priced Dinner or Lunch. Food is excellent for the price, service is pretty good, and the choice of different dishes is outstanding. We alsoo liked the interior, it's that the whole shopping plaza is not inviting, but ign...

Excellent food, excellent value. Atmosphere is a little outdated. The staff is friendly and courteous. Always something extra if you order take out(extra fried rice, egg roll, or fortune cookies)
