    Excellent food all the time....the only draw back is you sometimes have to wait in line....but it's worth it.
    The best Reubens and chicken & biscuit dinner....

    The McGarrey's provide the best food and best service. I have never had anything but great experiences here.

    Serious comfort food. The Rueben is huge and big enough for two (in my opinion).
    Priced right and very child friendly. Nice all American Menu to suit everyone in the family.

    They are known for their Rueben's and it's true - they are VERY good! Quite possibly the best.

    This cozy little restaurant is a great place to meet friends for lunch. When I lived in Erie I would take my mother here for her favorite Reuben sandwich. Great prices and large portions make it a must.

    Oakwood and Twins are my two favorite places for family dining. What can you say...their reuben is great!!! Service is fast. My family loves it and it doesnt break our budget when we go out! I love the city chicken when it is on special! I have never been disappointed.

    Great place to relax after a ballgame, and have a beer and reuben sandwich!

    If you like homestyle cooked food this is the place to go. My favorite, of course, is the famous reuben sandwich which they are noted for. The prices are very reasonable and portions are large. Great service!

    My favorite lunch order at McGarreys is the outrageously delicious Black and Bleu Salad, but for dinner, I highly recommend the marinated strip steak. It just melts in your mouth!

    What can I say about McGarrey's? Perhaps that in my opinion (and in the opinion of most people I know) this place has the best Reuben sandwich in Erie. They always have freshly cooked home-style dishes and staff is quick and courteous.

    I always know that when I eat at the Oakwood the food and the price will be outstanding. And you can get a beer with your meal, major plus for me. As the others have said, the reuben is the best I've ever had, if you like that sort of sandwich. I have probably eaten there over 100 times in my life and can't remember a single meal that wasn't good. If their stuffed pepper soup is on you should try it. I also like their chicken or taco salad, anything that's on special like city chicken or pork chops. All just like your mom or grandmother used to make.

    I had lunch there not long ago......I had the turkey reuben and surprisingly it was very tasty. I would definitely recommend it if you're not a fan of the traditonal reuben. Priced very reasonable and pleasant atmosphere.

    Great food and great prices with a hometown atmosphere. Of course the reuben, variety of soups, and chicken & biscuits are items that I would definitely recommend.

    Great place to just drop in for a home cooked meal. I have had their Rueban sandwich and their pork chops. Both meals were very good.

    Try and beat this restaurant for the best Reubin sandwich. Its easily the best in Erie. Another good one for home cooked food. I love places like this that are locally owned and serve good food at a great price. What a gem for lunch or dinner anytime.

    I agree with Chris. The Reuben is amazing. It is absolutely HUGE and super tasty. Also the price is great. It comes with delicious pickle. I usually call ahead and just pick up the reuben and eat it at home. When I decide to "dine-in", I usually order some of their specials for the day. All the food is always homemade and fresh.

    Got to have lunch here at least every other month, if you can find a table! The reuben is the best, just like the sign says. Everything is homemade - soups, etc.
