Ice cream is delicious! Staff is super friendly… We recommend the pup cups ❤️ Plenty of outdoor seating and parking.

Thought this was going to be a barbecue joint, but it’s more of a diner. The staff were nice and the atmosphere was folksy-friendly. It seemed like a place where local families would go for generations.

My boyfriend and I ate here this morning for his birthday. We had breakfast – he had the Philly cheese steak omelette and I had the french toast. It was delicious and quite a bit of food which I love. Our server was Stephanie G. and she was great, very friendly and attentive. In fact all the staff were friendly. I will definitely stop back again for ice cream and maybe a BBQ in the future. Only thing I could “pick” on was the cashier, he wasn’t that friendly and I didn’t get all my change back but it was less than $1 so no point complaining. I recommend this restaurant.

Well lit staple of Allentown with a lot to do and see in the nearby area! Nice menu. friendly staff, affordable prices! The Fairgrounds and Agri-Plex are right next door, 19th St. Civic Theatre right down the road. THEIR ICE CREAM IS INCREDIBLE AND THERE ARE TONS OF FLAVORS ON THE MENU! Additionally, there is seating outside for warmer weather and Cedar Beach Park isn’t to far away either.

Nice “diner”, has a cool throwback feel to it. Service was great, wish they had more “BBQ” type foods, definitely a Dinner and not a BBQ place. They don’t have brisket, pull pork or any smoked meats. the crab cakes are really small,

Scouting BBQ for the Food Network App, Ritz Barbecue was making some bold claims so I had to try it. The Service and people were super nice and the nesolgia of the outside building was epic. All that lured me in the door with World Famous BBQ. Having tried some of the Best in the country, the bar is set really high. For BBQ, this place fell below the bar. My bun was stale and broke apart and the BBQ itself was not memorable. I asked for their signature dish and it did not deliver. They points all come from the staff and decor.

Been going here for years. Service was great. However the French fries are just gross. Ice cream was disappointing. The Butter Pecan had hardly any pecans in it and very little flavor. My Cherry Vanilla had Chocolate in it and no flavor. My (who loves ice cream) grandson didn’t even finish his scoop of vanilla. Said it was gross. Sad. It will be a while until I go back. But the waitress was awesome!

Like going back in history. Wonderful food, good prices, friendly staff. Most patrons on Thursday afternoon we’re seniors. Home made ice cream was delicious.
