Restaurants near Hampton Inn & Suites New Castle, PA

On a cold winters night we went to this restaurant (Off the Hook) to celebrate my wife's birthday. The food was excellent and the friendly and competent staff and management went out of their way to make our evening enjoyable. We have eaten at many fine dining establishments, yet our experience here was exceptional and was over and above our expectations for the evening.

I had the absolute pleasure of being served by Sierra at Aqua Pazzo, and she truly made our dining experience unforgettable. From the moment we sat down, she was warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. She helped us pick the perfect dishes and even recommended a wine pairing that complemented our meal beautifully. Sierra’s attention to detail and genuine care for her customers were evident throughout the evening. She checked in at just the right moments, ensuring everything was perfect without ever feeling intrusive. Her upbeat attitude and radiant smile added so much positivity to our evening. Aqua Pazzo is lucky to have such a gem on their team. If you have the chance to dine here, ask for Sierra—you won’t be disappointed!

The food was excellent as always. Menu is not extensive, but choice. Enjoy that the chef tweaks the menu seasonally and specials are offered. Wait staff was attentive and knowledgable regarding choices . Worth a local drive if you do not live in Zelie… However , for our taste, the pop music did not match the elegance of the dishes and was too loud to converse quietly.

Great food and excellent service. We went on a romantic getaway to New Castle and loved being there.

This was our first time here and we will for sure be back! The charcuterie board was one of the nicest I’ve seen with five cheese varieties and almost as many cracker/bread choices displayed in a very appealing manner. Our food was well prepared and plentiful and the wine w chose paired well with everything we ordered. Service was quick and knowledgeable. Definitely recommend
