  We live fairly close to this establishment and frequent because there seems to be something always going on in this little town: Art festivals, wine festivals, summer music etc. The food is traditional American with lots of grilled and fresh ingredients. Always a great view and better atmosphere on the patio. The wait staff is very friendly and professional. There always seems to be some event going on when we go (wedding, reunions) but we've never had a hard time getting a table. Be sure to go to the art gallery, wine shop and maybe take in a Segway tour of the historic area or canoeing on the Allegheny. Great day trip for P'Burghers.

  Lazy Sunday, perfect weather, we decided to go for a little drive to Foxburg.  The Allegheny Grill is located right on the banks of the river.  We arrived early enough to get a table on the patio.  The view is amazing, the trees are beautiful shades of green.  Very relaxing seeing an occasional kayak slip by or a fishing boat looking for a new spot.
  
  Our server was very nice.  BJ was happy with the beer choices.  I got chicken tenders from the appetizer menu.  I was surprised at the size, very big.  I also ordered a small side salad which was huge and very fresh.  BJ got an Angus burger with blue cheese and bacon served with fries.  The food items we ordered was good, but not impressive.  Next time, we would like to try their pasta.
  
  More then anything, this is a very "charming little neck of the woods" type of place to visit.  Be sure to roam around the grounds of the Inn next door and check out the candy store and art gallery.  Lots to see and enjoy in this tiny little part of town.   Loved our visit to Allegheny Grill!!

  Located in the small town (total population: 275 people) of Foxburg, PA is their ONE & ONLY fine dining restaurant: Allegheny Grill.
  
  A two-story log cabin-esque building overlooking the Allegheny River makes this restaurant the ideal place to get a window seat or dine on the patio and enjoy the picturesque view of the nearby river and surrounding lush green mountains.
  
  On location alone the place would get 5 stars, but i wasn't as wowed by the food. Don't get me wrong, the food is good, but it's A-OK as the 3 star rating sums it up.
  
  The Allegheny Grill serves up what i'd like to think of as you're typical 'American' cuisine: anything grilled, lots of pasta dishes, and sandwiches (remember Bill Knapps's?).
  
  Anyhoo, looking over the menu many of the prices were surprisingly steep for this small town restaurant, about $17-$20 per entree, with no sides or apps included...yikes!!! : /  
  
  Based on that we decided to split the $18 Balsamic Beef Kabobs (i know i can't believe this place sold kabobs either), but our waitress informed us that the dish had sold out for the night. Just peachy!
  
  So we opted for the Panko-crusted Haddock (nice crispy crust but fish was overcooked) and an order of Penne Pasta with Chicken (fresh basil, thinly sliced garlic, smokey sundried tomatoes, and pretty tasty).
  
  Overall decent food, pleasant waitstaff, and amazing view!
  
  p.s. they have an outdoor patio with a full bar, where you can stop by, have a drink (or two), and enjoy the beautiful serene landscape.

  My wife heard about this place from a co-worker and suggested we give it a shot.  We arrived early enough where a reservation wasn't required at the moment (4:00 PM on a Saturday) But this place fills up fast on the weekends and I would recommend one if you are showing up after 5:00PM. This riverfront restaurant offers a great scenic view of the Allegheny River.
  
  To start, we ordered the Asiago, Crab, Spinach and Artichoke Dip, which comes with hand cut tortilla wedges. the appetizer was well seasoned and just plain delicious. For the main course, I ordered the Ribeye which was tender and cooked perfectly and my better half ordered the Salmon. She was equally impressed with hers. The service was excellent, and the view was very nice. A number of small shops around the restaurant made for a nice afternoon out.
