Hidden gem alert! This place is such a wonderful addition to Hazleton. From the drinks to the meal, everything was very well executed. All the dishes were well seasoned and delicious. My mom raved about the meatball scamutz sandwich which uses bread made in-house. The mashed potatoes with my steak were some of the best I've ever had. Prices are more than fair. 10/10 would drive the hour trip to come again.

My friend and I had a classy, relaxing dinner celebrating her birthday. Our waitress was a friendly, hard-working employee who checked on us regularly. Our food was a little slow to come out because of the weekend and probably a covid employee shortage; however, it was worth the wait. Overally, good atmosphere and tasty food for the .

My friend moved to Hazleton a few years ago and I finally came to visit him. The one place he kept saying we HAD TO GO TOO was the Ovalon. The food was great, the people super friendly and the atmosphere was old school vibes at its best. Was a great night. The best part was Carol. The bartender and resident host extraordinaire. From the moment I walked in she made me feel so welcome. Like I had been a regular for years. On top of that she made one of the best martinis I’ve ever had. Thanks so much ovalon for a memorable night

Impossible to find a good steak in Hazelton. Don't worry I did all the hard work for you it's here! Price and portions are fine for what they're providing. Pro tip get the soup over salad. Very nice and professional staff.

Food was AMAZING! Filets topped with crab were wonderful, and the mashed and baked potatoes were great as well. Drinks were delicious. And our waitress was so sweet!

Stopped in Thursday the 13th! I haven’t been there in forever. Lots of new faces, the only person I recognized was Karen. Her Pear Martini’s were excellent. A young gentleman named Devin (I think) was our server and he was training someone. Service was excellent. Bruschetta appetizer was the best you could ask for. I had chicken Marsala for dinner. It’s one of my favorite dishes and I’ve tried it just about everywhere. It’s literally one of the best I’ve ever had! The sauce was absolutely perfect! It had a slight sweetness that hit just right! My only negative comment would be that the Caesar salads were average at best. They used to have some be of the best Caesar’s in hazleton, so much so that I would recommend friends to try one there. For the price of the Caesar I expected the same quality as they used to be. The price of the salad was outrageous! 12 for a small salad?? How is a house sale 4 and Caesar 12 when it has less ingredients? The entree prices are high enough that it should have been included. All in all I’d highly recommend Ovalon for dinner and drinks, but don’t waste your money on the extras like soups and salads because it’s sadly not worth it.

Wonderful food and wine, great service. It has been a favorite of the locals for many many years. The Steak Diane was superb. Also a nice small wine selection.
