No information as to the food at the Rodi location. The seafood restaurant has moved to Monroeville. It is now called Monterey Bay and is located on the top floor of the office building which is in the Jannette Plaza. It is located on Business 22 very near to the intersection of PA 48. The seafood remains about the best in the area. mds

Unfortunately the veal sandwich I ordered was awful.
The grilled seafood side of things is being served atop the Jonnet Building in Monroeville, was Fairchild's, now Monterey Bay. The re-done restaurant on Rodi (same owners, I think), B. T. Hawleys, is also impressive in a mass quantities sort of way. On our first visit (with my much better half, a year ago, maybe?) we could only make a dent in the appetizer platter and got no further; we took it home and took days to finish it. The last time there I had the "finger-length" hamburger: three pieces, each as big as some "normal" burgers I've had elsewhere. Oh yeah, it all tasted good, too.
