New American Restaurants near Mckeesport, PA

“Learned about this place on Social Media and decided to give it a shot today since my son and I both love fries! Was concerned about parking since it was all street parking on a Sunday, but to our surprise, there were plenty of parking spaces along North Ave. Got there before the “after church rush” and was greeted by Shawn and Ashley as soon as we stepped in. Ashley was kind to go over their menu with us and we ended up doing “Build Our Own”. Shawn also stopped by our table and checked in to see if all was good. Both Roasted Chicken and Crispy Chicken were great protein choices and we ordered multiple variation of sauces. House sauce, Habanero BBQ and Honey Gold were all delicious. As others had said, must try their Cucumber Mint and Lemonade. They were so refreshing and amazing that I got a 6-pack to go! Love supporting local Pittsburgh small businesses and am glad we came. Congrats to both Shawn and Ashley for this cute awesome place. We will be back and tell everyone about this place.“

“We were at a McKeesport baseball tournament at a field that was closer to walk to today than the "main" concession stand. We ordered some hot food and cold items, and the only thing that nobody thought was great was the blue raspberry slushie. Considering the length of the line, service was efficient and definitely friendly! After our 2nd game, our team's coach treated the players to ice cream here. There were only 2 people working (because of call-offs), but the wait wasn't bad concidering that). My oldest daughter and I wanted onion rings, but were at first told they weren't cooking anymore. HOWEVER, the manager/owner did end up selling us onion rings ❤ and they were yummy! Thank you all for your hard work (filling orders and making customers happy) as well as delivering to the field across the street for McKeesport's tournaments! ?“

“Look for our server, David M. Friendly, great sense of humor, provided advice on food and drinks. I wanted a Porter or a stout, and he joyfully replied “Left Hand Milk Stout!” He nailed it.“

“Great neighborhood pub vibes but a little more elevated. Fair prices and great seasonal fare.“

“We had the best time here recently!! Food, staff, drinks, all amazing. The courses were fun and they kept things moving smoothly, very organized. We will definitely be back!“

“What a wonderful experience while visiting Pittsburgh! Unique menu with the most scrumptious flavors! The desserts are to die for! You can tell the food is farm to table and pure! I will be back each time we visit!“

“Good variety a little something for everyone!“

“Finally had a chance to stop in and have dinner, I wish I had come sooner. The staff was friendly and courteous. The food and presentation were excellent. Definitely stop in if you in the area.“

“Food was amazing. Location is awful. Came out after dinner and our car was smeared with ketchup packets. Wish it was in a different area, would definitely go back. Feel the area is not safe.“

“One of our top 5 restaurants in our decades of eating out! Inventive, unique, and well crafted cocktails to the Porchetta and Crab Trophie to the amazing Creme Brulee and affagato...All top notch! These chefs know what they are doing!!! Unfortunately, they aren't open on Sundays when we are normally in town otherwise we'd be here monthly!“

“We didn’t have food. Stopped for a drink before a Penguins game. Our bartender Lindsay was top notch. She gave us an education on mixology. We concocted an old fashioned with High West Campfire bourbon and molasses bitters that came out as the best old fashioned I ever had. Always great experience here but Lindsay made it perfect.“

“Dylan c!!! He made our experience and the food added to it. Everything was phenomenal!!!“

“Stopped here on our way through Monongehela. My husband had the cheese burger and d fries and really enjoyed it. I cannot eat gluten and very rarely find a place that can accommodate me. I had kolbassi with no bun, coleslaw, and they cooked my fries in a separate fryer. Everything was very good!“

“The Eggs Benedict is to die for! If you eat here you are supporting someone's dream. I will be supporting going forward!“

“We went to G’s for our anniversary and it was an absolutely delightful experience. Great quiet and cozy atmosphere, stellar service, and incredible food and drinks. Every dish was full of flavor and the textures were all beautifully done. Even the bread basket was amazing with maple butter. It felt like a 5 star dining experience for a reasonable person. Excited to go back again soon.“

“Went in on a crowded, busy night, but the bartenders were immediately responsive and friendly still. They have a wide variety of drinks, and all four that two of us tried were really memorable and unique. For sure a place to return to and try the whole menu“

“The meal was absolutely perfect. Ambience is totally on point and the staff was friendly with good suggestions. I loved the food the pancakes with pistachio sauce are out of bounds. I even ran into some old friends and made new ones too. You’ve gotta go. Thanks nook!“

“Everything. The food is great and the owner and staff are fabulous!!!!“

“It was our first visit to City Winery for the John Waite concert. The venue was very intimate and the concert was fabulous. The food, wine and service were fantastic. We look forward to coming again.“

“We’re from out of town but liked it so much a couple years ago that it’s our go to place when we’re in Pittsburgh. The happy hour drinks make it very affordable and the popcorn snack is very tasty to go with the beer and cocktails. Nice chill vibe and seems to be a neighborhood spot.“

“love this place! our first visit as growing bourbon connoisseurs, and our bartender dominic did not disappoint! great food, amazing bourbon, fantastic service, wonderful atmosphere.“

“We had täkō last night in Pittsburgh for the first time and it was SO GOOD! They had their Spookeasy pop up Halloween bar and the set up was so cool, it was pretty packed with it being Halloween weekend but it was such a cool atmosphere! We ended up getting seats at the bar and the two bartenders were so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful with deciding what drinks we wanted to try! The tacos.....the octopus is the BEST, chorizo was second best for me. Pictures aren't the greatest, but it's the best I got. Definitely a great time if you're feeling fancy 🍶 It's not cheap, but I'd say definitely worth it for the food, drinks, staff and just the atmosphere of it all.“

“My son and I had dinner for Mother’s Day. Our first experience at this restaurant. Aside from a small miscommunication where the side dishes were delivered to the table alongside the apps, everything was very good. They corrected the sides and delivered fresh with the entrees, the sides were easily large enough to share amongst three or four people and the food was very good. The app, sides and entrees, as well as the gluten free chocolate cake were all delicious. I definitely recommend this restaurant and plan to return.“

“The Commoner’s kitchen knows what they’re doing, and it shows in every dish. The menu is straightforward but executed with real attention to detail and bold, well-balanced flavors. The Spicy Crab Dip is rich, creamy, and just the right amount of heat, paired with perfectly crisp toast for scooping. It’s the kind of appetizer that disappears fast. The Crispy Potatoes are a must-order—deeply golden, crunchy outside, soft inside, and made even better with a velvety taleggio cheese fondue and roasted garlic butter. Simple, but perfect. The Pork is cooked exactly how you want it—juicy, well-seasoned, and served with sides that let the meat shine. It’s clear the chefs here care about the details, from technique to balance on the plate. Service is friendly and efficient, the drinks are well-crafted, and the atmosphere is lively but comfortable. No gimmicks, just seriously good food made by a team that knows what they’re doing.“

“The shrimp with house made cavatelli is to die for!!!! Can’t wait to come back.“

“My wife and I had an incredible dinner at Fish nor Fowl. We were celebrating her birthday, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. We were greeted with champagne for her birthday and multiple happy birthday wishes. The food was delicious and the menu made it very nice to share multiple dishes. We even had room for tiramisu for dessert. Highly recommend!“

“Duke’s is fantastic! Awesome food, service! Great atmosphere! This is a place I’ll continue to eat at when in the area! 👍👍👍“

“This was my first time at Bonfire and it was amazing! Our waitress Julia was very personable and it was evident that she made an effort to interact with us! I would definitely go back!“

“My family stopped by on Saturday afternoon ordered a Pgh pizza and loaded fries. The Pizza was out of this world. The fries were fresh cut and delicious. Our server was Jodie and she was so friendly and efficient we never had to ask a refill on drinks. Most pleasant trip there ever.“

“prices are extremely reasonable. The service staff is top notch. Very large servings. The pizza was good. But, I was expecting a Vinny pie. It's a great place to eat.“

“Dive bar vibe - Dark & Vintage. They're hot cheese balls were pretty good. They were not the best cheese curds that I have ever had, but they were decent. If you like your cheese curds extra cheesy, these are for you. We also got 2 burgers were which were extremely large, & cooked well done which wasn't very good. The fries were subpar and the chips were just plain generic ruffle chips -not made in house or anything. I would have loved another option to not have a side. This place was not super expensive which was cool but probably wouldn't come here again.“

“Definitely recommend the smash burger.. awesome & the fries are great! Nice selection of draft beers and great service! I think her name is Theresa? We will be back!“

“I do not recommend this place. My boyfriend and I sat at the bar last night and were never even acknowledged. We stayed for 10-15 and after no acknowledgement from the bartender or service we left. Rhonda and Chon at the hot chocolate stand were quite the opposite of our experience inside. They were both so helpful and accommodating.“

“My wife & I go to dinner with a few other couples once a month. We go down the alphabet & go to non chain restaurants. We picked Meat & Potatoes for M. This was all of our first time at the restaurant. We were seated in the side 1 table room, the service was great, it was like our own little space. My wife & I got the 2 Tomahawk steaks, bone marrow, asparagus, & shoestring fries. Everything was amazing, we all got different starters to share. We got the pig candy, all starters were great! There was not one complaint from the table, we will definitely be back. I have known the owner for a very long time, & been to his other places & been just as satisfied. GREAT JOB RICK & ALL OF YOUR STAFF!“

“I can’t say enough great things about this place! They invited our specials needs kiddos in and not only made us the most wonderful, delicious pizzas but it was all on the house! They treated the kids so well! Highly recommend this place to everyone!! Thank you so much for donating lunch to us! The kids absolutely loved it!“

“A great local place for wings and a cold beer. Very good prices on liquor as well. A fun local place to get good quality food and have a beer. They have a couple machines available to play and the locals are always friendly. It closes early so no real issues.“

“amazing food, bulgolgi is amazing, the kimchi fried rice is to die for, and don't forget to start with the killer tofu as well. can't wait to go back!“

“I had an amazing blackened salmon salad tonight with one of the best dressings I’ve ever had, hands down! The honey lemon vinaigrette is perfection, don’t pass it up when you go! I’m pumped to come back and try more of it all. Everything looked amazing on the menu, the food I saw come out looked great, the staff and atmosphere were all on point, music and the whole vibe was perfect. Its casual wear with a nice patio, different rooms for parties, everything was super clean and it has great food and drinks! Don’t miss this spot when you’re in Mt Washington next time!!“

“Great food, service, & atmosphere!“

“A great dive type of bar, with the best breakfast and chicken wings around. An older type of crowd tends to be here during breakfast hours with soft playing music. While the night vibe is pretty much a 34yr to 48ish crowd. It's commonly RnB and Hip Hop with the drinks coming out strong and heavy. All while being served by some pretty great female bartenders.“

“I had ordered memorial chimes with flower arragment at bottom. It was so beautiful and Jennifer was so very helpful and wonderful to work with even over the phone. After the flower arragment was done she sent me a text of what it looked like and it was awsome. I will definitely go there again and highly recommend this place . Wonderful job and pleasant people made this sad time so much easier. Thank you“

“Great food & service! Ignore the fake reviews from the MAGA trolls“

“A staple of The Strip District.  The Beerhive is a neighborhood bar and grill that has tons of beer options, both canned and rotating taps.  They have a full bar as well and feature specialty cocktails from time to time.   They have burgers, wings, tacos and more, all made from scratch in-house while using tons of local ingredients.  Their meatballs, burgers and wing sauces are all made on site. I tried the fried pickles which are hand breaded Pittsburgh Pickle Company pickles served with spicy ranch. Their smash burger is amazing, the burger is sourced entirely within walking distance of their front door! The bun is from Mancini’s, the meat is from Strip District Meats, the cheese is from Penn Mac, the onions are from Local Provisions, the pickles are Pittsburgh Pickle Company & the Hive sauce is made in house! It’s a local Pittsburgh business sandwich spectacular!!! Of course had to get it with their delicious fresh cut fries!“

“We always enjoy an evening at Gil’s. Friendly waitstaff. Good food. The Mediterranean Chicken was great!!! And of course the hopper!“

“The Yard Burger Bundle was a great deal with top-notch quality.“

“Chill place! Cool bartender ! Cheap drinks!“

“Ok, the wagyu truffle burger is actually as good as people say! Well seasoned, good amount of cheese, onion and lettuce is cut into a relish and mixed with sauce which makes the burger perfectly moist. I didn’t really feel truffle and the meat was almost well done even though I specified it wasn’t o be medium. Overall, a burger that’s much better than in most places so I’d definitely be back to try more things.“

“This restaurant is terrific! Friendly welcoming staff, interesting atmosphere and delicious food.
I recommend the lump crab appetizer and French onion soup. It’s always fun to go to a family owned establishment that has lasted for decades. Well done!“
