Seafood success: Construction nearly complete on Long John Silver's

For decades, travelers along Route 65 in Beaver County have passed by the Long John Silver's restaurant in the East Rochester shopping plaza. It was a steady sight until about four months ago , when the building was torn down and fencing went up around the property. Those passing by could only question what was going to replace the building as they watched digging, framing and other construction there. Now the signs are up and construction is nearing completion on the project, a newly revamped and modernized Long John Silver's at 750 Ohio River Blvd. The business will no longer include an A&W restaurant component, but it does have a redesign flipping the drive-thru window to the opposite side, making it easier for traffic to get through the area. Long John Silver's representatives still are not releasing an opening date, but acknowledged things are wrapping up as crews continue to work inside. "We’re excited to be nearing the finish line on our East Rochester restaurant and look forward to welcoming the community back later this year," Mike Niemiec, director of construction and development, told The Times Oct. 6 in an email.

From the Battlefield to the Grill: Wintersville’s Phat Matty’s Food Truck

For Matt Leland, the journey from the battlefields of Iraq to a food truck in Wintersville, Ohio, is one of resilience and rediscovery. After serving in Operation Iraqi Freedom, Matt returned home carrying invisible wounds—PTSD and major depressive disorder—that would shadow his life for nearly a decade. Isolation became his refuge, and for years, he kept the world at bay, including his own circle of friends. But amid this struggle, a surprising source of solace emerged: the kitchen. With seven children to feed, cooking was more than a necessity; it was a nightly event. Encouraged by his wife Beth, who became his unwavering support system, Matt found therapy in the sizzle of the grill and the smoke of the barbecue.
