Restaurants near East Pittsburgh

“Tugboats is everything you want in a neighborhood spot: friendly people, a welcoming vibe, and amazing food. Jimmy's pizza is hands down the best I've had in Pittsburgh so far and I'm from Philly and have eaten pizza all over, including New York. But you have to get down there early because they sell out of pizza often.
Momma Jackie and the staff treat everyone like family, and they absolutely adore my dog Freya with water, treats, and plenty of love. The deck is the perfect place to sit back with a slice, a drink, and your pup.”

“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.”

“Great ambience and beautiful restaurant. We got the eggplant dip, mango salad, khao soi with tofu and the coconut ice cream dessert and everything tasted exceptional.”

“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”

“On November 12th I was one of a party of 12 who enjoyed one of the most delicious and enjoyable dinners ever, at Lilith. We ordered a variety of appetizers, entrees, desserts, and drinks. Food was cooked perfectly and served graciously. The small venue is absolutely charming and warm; don't let the small neighborhood fool you- this is worth seeking out. I wish I had taken photos, but those already posted reflect the lovely dishes we all ordered. The staff members, to a person, were gracious, thoughtful, and timely in their interactions with us. It was a highlight of our trip to Pittsburgh. Enjoy!”

“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!”

“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”

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

“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!”

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

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

“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.”

“We had the best time for my cousins Bachelorette tea party! The atmosphere was so cozy and all of the staff were friendly! We had the best time blending our own special tea! Danielle was the best host and so knowledgeable about all of the herbs we could pick from. Booking the event was easy and Danielle was able to answer any questions that we had before the event and during it as well. Would definitely recommend Abeille Voyante Tea for their tea party and amazing loose leaf tea!”

“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.”

“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!”

“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!”

“First time dining at Senti. Not a big menu to choose from, but what you do get is quality. The apps were very good to start the evening and the dinners were excellent. Nice portions and very tasty. Drinks are very good and paired nicely with dinner. We will definitely be back.”

“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!!”

“What a wonderful experience eating here! As a person with a strict gluten free diet, I loved being able to find a restaurant that not only offered gluten free items but items that could be made gluten free! Everything I have tried has been amazingly prepared, the staff is excellent, and the atmosphere relaxed and beautiful. I'll definitely be making this a favorite dinner place!”

“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.”

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

“We’ve had 2 smash cake sessions done with Mia DeMeo who used BB and BUR for the cakes! Not only were they adorable but tasted delicious! This past weekend we used them for our sons smash cake! It turned out just as I expected and our little happy camper enjoyed it! Thank you”

“Stick with the hamburgers!”

“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?”

“Love this place & the coffee , people are so nice , & very relaxing”

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

“Reggae creates impeccable vibes. Awesome ice cream treats - all sorts of unique ideas. Chocolate covered strawberry swirl. Chili cheese hot dogs are made with love. Be patient with the line and enjoy the experience.”

“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. 🙂”
