Restaurants near East Pittsburgh

“We were there first time yesterday. Food,drinks and service was very good. Will definitely be back. Only negative comment is that the front steps handrails need to be replaced or repaired. I'm partially handicapped and had a tough time getting in and out.”

“A group of 5 of us visited Dish last night and the meals were amazing. Grilled Squid, the best I have ever had. Where else can you find it not breaded and fried? Add to that their amazing sardines so fresh and good. Pasta Funghi another high. Exquisite detail to taste in every dish. The owners go way out of their way to make you feel welcomed and happy and very satisfied. A must visit when you are lucky enough to get a reservation though other friends have happily sat at the bar for dinner just to be there!! Kudos to Dish!”

“Had high expectations for this place but the food just wasn’t that great :/ I ate solo and even tried to fit in 3 dishes but neither of them really hit. Pierogi were nicely crisped on the outside but the romesco-like sauce on the bottom made the dish more on the acidic side, especially since there was already pickled relish on top, and I found myself wishing for more fat or sweetness. I actually used ricotta that came with bread and it tasted much better with it. Lobster roll filling was excellent but I wished they’d actually toasted the bread on the inside and not on the outside. Eating soft white bread of which there was a lot just didn’t feel great. Finally, the skate had good flavor and shishitos were a cute touch but the fish was severely undersalted (it’s a thick fillet) and the sauce on the bottom was, again, mostly acidic and didn’t help much.

Super romantic vibe inside and excellent service. Drinks were good, not great (I enjoyed their version of penicillin but the funghi one had no funghi flavor).”

“We have dined here multiple times and each time it somehow gets better. Service is exceptional, food is incredible and the vibe and atmosphere is one-of-a-kind in Pittsburgh. Just wish it wasn’t so hard to get a reservation each time 😂”

“Chris has bad attitude worst pie maker i have pics he says this is a perfect pizza delivered to wrong address also at first smh”

“Me and my girlfriend went to Baby Tacos today for the first time we got there a few minutes before they opened. Who I’m assuming the owner was very friendly and still waited on us. The food was done in minutes and when I went to check out he told me to put my money away the first one is on the house. There aren’t to many businesses like this one in this day and age. Food was great will definitely be a return customer”

“Great service, and the food was really good!”

“This is a special place. Liege waffles are very different than anything I've ever had. They are made from a yeast dough, with caramelized brown sugar inside, smallish, and served warm in a napkin so that you can take it with you while window shopping. Please note: these are not meant to be served with ice cream on top. The ice cream and waffles are both very good by themselves. The owner only serves them together because people ask for that, but I think they ask for it because they think that's how it's meant to be served. (At least, that's what we thought!)”

“Great food. Friendly efficient staff. Highly recommend.”

“An absolute delight! The food was exceptional — every bite was a treat to the palate. The service was equally outstanding, warm, and attentive. A place where you truly savor the experience. Most importantly, it's the kind of spot you'll want to return to again and again!”

“Love visiting condado butler street when i’m in the lawrenceville area. It’s such a fun vibe & the food is always a 10. My #1 is the chorizo queso. Definitely a very well-managed location. Ask for the employee Phy if you go! Can’t wait until my next visit!”

“Tapas are amazing and atmosphere is fun! Come check it out.”

“Love this hidden little gem! Always loved chatting with the owners and workers, but always just passing through and got my coffee to go. Today my internet went out at home and I got to work there for a few hours - just the nicest people and great coffee!”

“Great drinks, incredible Martinis🍸, nice staff! The food was incredible with an incredible variety of dishes!”

“My wife's grandparents are from the hill country of Lebanon, and her "Sittee" made phenomenal food. I haven't had anything even close to her cooking until I went to Babylon. Friendly, courteous owner and staff, great service, and food that is out of this world. What more could you want?”

“I check the weekly offerings and try to plan a trip when something sounds appealing. I will say that I have enjoyed 95% of the ones I tried. You can't go wrong with the semi-sweet chocolate chip. The pineapple upside down cake was delicious. The orange creamsicle flavor was spot on. They recently had a peanut butter crisp cookie featuring Butterfinger. It tasted like the candy bar in cookie form.”

“The people and food is awesome. Will keep coming back to them to get my coffee fix.”

“I tried 1:11 Juice Bar at the August Wilson Birthday Block Party. It was the drink everybody wanted. It was so fresh and good. I bought 4 and took a picture with my family drinking ours. I mean it was THAT fresh. And the flavors were unique. I’ve been looking for the page and now I found it! Just wanted to thank you guys and get some more juice!”

“Delicious food! Huge portions! Will be back!”

“Live music, open mic, karaoke!”

“My Son and I and my Best Friend were there yesterday for the first time and we absolutely loved it .... delicious! Nice atmosphere and the staff was excellent. We'll definitely be going back. I highly recommend you won't be disappointed.🍔🍟”

“Thank you for the tasty sweet pita you made for our celebration, it was very delicious and special! Everyone loved it!”

“Best bread anywhere in the Pittsburgh area…worth our 30 minute drive to buy!! And if you want to treat yourself to the BEST cinnamon roll - buy one and savor it!! Flavor is incredible and one roll can feed 2 people easily!! If they ever make the flat non-iced sugar sprinkled cinnamon rolls again- I will buy them all!! Those are absolute perfection in taste and texture..piece of Heaven!!”

“Went there today for the first time after hearing about it from a bunch of people. It was absolutely DELICIOUS!!! The guys were incredibly friendly. The food was great! Really cool place. I will definitely be back soon! The smashed potato taco is now my favorite thing in life. 🙂”

“Stopped here after Steel City Con for lunch. I grew up on the VA/NC border, and I’m used to having good BBQ. No doubt, Big Rig might be the best barbecue I’ve ever had anywhere. I was in a group of four big dudes, and everyone loved their various dishes and the portions are huge. Great service, great food. 100% will be back again.”

“Glad to have Latin American food on Murray. Arepas were very good and filling. Enjoyed the food. Quick stop after hitting up the Giant Eagle.”

“My server was Vic, they had alot of heathy options if not all. The people there were very friendly and welcoming and i loved the flavors of the smoothies and juices.

Vegetarian options: Heathy & Yummy!”

“If you love good food and a tremendous beer selection, look no further. The Bloody Mary’s are pretty good too.”
