I have been to aroogas on 22 a couple of times and yes, the wings are great and much of the other food is also good but the service just flat out SUCKS!! We went there the other night and they told us there would be a wait so we put our name in behind the 10 other people and we were willing to wait. As we sat and watched more people come in and put their names in for table and wait we noticed people who came in after us and put their names in AFTER US got a table before we did? So when asked at server at the front door she said the manager took these people over all the other people waiting but she did not know why and thought it was wrong. We spoke to the manager who lied to our face and told us that they have reservations, which we heard the group of 4 and group of 2 say when they walk in the door that they did not make reservations and we saw them put their name. also the server shook her head. I don’t care how good the food is at aroogs, they treats the people like shit and if you should need something you can never find a bartender or server because they are always talking to their friends at the bar or they are on their cell phones. I will not go back I don’t care how good the food is, there are plenty of other great places in Harrisburg to good wings.

My girlfriend and I have been to Aroogas on Rt. 22 a number of times. Mostly good, but the last time we went (about a month ago) early in the evening and there was not a single server or bartender in the place. The phones were ringing off the hook. We sat at the bar for 10 minutes and then left. There were about 15 other people in the bar, but no employees. As we drove away around the back we saw all the staff sitting outside on the sidewalk and on some chairs smoking, and talking on their cell phones. Haven’t been back since.

the map on the website for the Allentown Blvd location is very misleading.
Should be corected to the corner of Old Jonestown Rd and Allentown Blvd
Right now it is in the middle of no where.

I’ve been to the West Shore location twice now, and both times our experience was great. Food was good, beer was nice and cold, and reasonably priced, the service was great too. A great place to enjoy a game!

Ive been to both Aroogas restaurants and have had nothing but great service and food. There is no place in the area that can compare. From the cold cold draft beer to 40 different wings sauces. It has a comfortable atmosphere and has a widde variety of people who go there. If it wasnt so good youd actually be a able to get a parking spot at either of them and that never happens

Kokomos was great even if you had wait “a few minutes”(10-15 min.) for a table.
The Camp Hill location has terrible service, cold food, loud music and a horrible tap selection.
The wings are in no way as good as Kokomos was.
You wait forever for a table on weekend nights and your meal is always COLD.
If your young and want to drink expensive domestic draft beer and park along a major highway berm risking a wrecked car or an expensive parking ticket when you come out, this place is for you.
The parking lot is always totally full w/ people parking where they shouldn’t and it takes you 6 trys back and forth to get out of your space if you were lucky enough to get one at the end of the lot.
In two words “Avoid it”.

I’ve been to the one right off of 22 and the food was very good the loaded fries were good but they changed the sauce that comes with it from what kokomos had and it’s not good at all. the wings were done good and crispy. I was satisfied with the food over all. But the service is a bunch of blondes that would rather be self vomiting in the bathroom staring in the mirror then serving you. Because I guess they think they’re hot… PS ladies you’re serving at a restraunt there is nothing glorified about that =D

I’ve been to Arooga’s on 22 and the Arooga’s in Camp Hill with varied experiences.
The Camp Hill location seems to be more of a bar/frat house atmosphere than a restaurant. The food comes out cool, sometimes warm, but definitely not hot. The wings, which are some of my favorite in this area, have come out cool on the outside and dry on the inside during at least 65% of my visits there. Majority of the staff seem to be more interested in socializing with co-workers/friends/significant others than doing their jobs. Try getting a drink at the bar while the bartender plays with her cell phone!
I’m a HUGE sports fan, but the number of TVs in this place is outright gaudy and hardly enjoyable. Don’t EVER try to go for a meal on the day of a sporting event because you’ll be annoyed by drunk 30somethings thinking they’re still 20somethings.
Arooga’s on 22 seems to be more of a family-friendly atmosphere. The servers actually recognize your presence though still have the same “socializing issue” as the Camp Hill location (not nearly as bad). My only issue with this location is their timing. I’ve been there at least 50 times if not more and I can only remember a handful of times where the appetizer came out before the meal, not simultaneously.
All in all I do like Arooga’s, I just get frustrated by bad service, rude fellow diners, and good food turned bad by staff laziness.
