“This was my first time here. I highly recommend. The environment was friendly and full of different groups of people having a blast. Some were watching the game on the big TV's, some were playing the available board games. The music was poppin'!!! People of all ages were there which I thought was cool. Everyone was having a blast and I will be back. Staff was friendly and helpful!“
“My work honored me recently with a retirement party, along with our Pittsburgh staff, at the Altius restaurant. My family has enjoyed dinner there before, and as always, everyone was quite impressed with the atmosphere, attentive staff, and fantastic food. Altius is a top-tier restaurant in Pittsburgh, and you will not be disappointed.“
“Verrrry delightful. Had been hearing about this place since moving to PA and finally got to go—wait wasn’t super lengthy, seating was neat (we sat outside in a tent with heaters), and food came out really quickly. Loved the sauce on top of my pierogis the most!“
“The food was very tasty but the main reason we were there was for the drinks which were absolutely amazing. The grog was my favorite. There are so many different ways to make a rum drink taste and they mastered them all. Service was cheerful and friendly. The place actually looked like it could be on an island with all he tiki statues everywhere. Excellent stop.“
“I visited acacia for the first time and really loved their cocktails. I was afraid that without reservations, the wait would be too long. But even on a Saturday evening in Southside, we easily got a table at 8:30pm. I got The Architect which was spicy and refreshing. The service is amazing and they will make any drink off the menu as well. I asked for a Mai Tai and got the best one I've ever had. Definitely recommend this bar to go to with friends. The ambience is also easy-going and chill for catching up with friends or relaxing after a long day.“
“Very personable, welcoming. Coffee shop establishment with homemade delicious almond Danish, date cookies that go with the specialty coffee made with date paste- to die for. Brothers who operate the place ate very kindKid-friendliness: Open environment, caters more to coffee/tea drinkers. Is pet friendly, I observed doggie treats and water bowlWheelchair accessibility: Doorways are wide enough for a wheelchair“
“First time here, will definitely be back! Service was great food was great. Had the loaded fries, nashville chicken sandwich buffalo chicken eggrolls..not a fan of the eggroll but everything else was amazing. Ranch dressing was the some of the best I've “
“We often order delivery from here and are always impressed with the quality of the food, the quantity, and the speed of delivery. Tonight it was chicken parmigiana with angel hair and a side salad with fried zucchini as an appetizer for me, while my dad did the build-your-own-pasta with gnocchi and carbanara (bacon, mushroom cream) sauce and caesar salad. They said it would be an hour and it was only 30 minutes. I don't know how the fried zucchini travels and still arrives crispy, but they do it, and it's awesome, large slices, very generous, like a whole zucchini, with crisp, though not too thick, breading. It does not include a dip, only lemon wedges, but I have ranch dressing here. The chicken parmigiana was two large breasts, breaded, moist, and smothered in sauce and cheese. The side salads are generous with a thick slice of cucumber, grape tomato, red onion, and lettuce (the caesar - not real authentic but good - with croutons, black olives, grape tomatoes, lettuce, and parm cheese). We are never disappointed and always have leftovers. The one time something was wrong with our order, they promptly came back with what was missing and gave us a credit. Try the focaccia pizzas for a week's worth of great food! Highly recommended!!!“
“Kicking myself for not driving up the hill sooner to this incredible Pittsburgh gem! The food: outstanding and fresh. The drinks: Delicious. The glassware: so fun. The owner and staff: incredible people. We visited on the last night of the season before the owner makes the trek home for some well-deserved time off for the holidays. (They'll be back in Feb). We had lovely conversations with the staff and other bar patrons. It's a lovely cozy space and the perfect environment for talking to strangers. There are some beautiful photos on the wall used as conversation starters from the owners travels. I tried the pickle martini and some of the house-made wines, all were so tasty. The food blew me out of the water. The Iberian plate was a perfectly curated mix of the most delicious meats, cheeses, olives, kimchi, etc. We got lucky that day as the owner had prepared her famous lamb. She slices it thin and serves it with a generous portion of pita bread and house made dips including tatziki and red pepper hummus. I'm dreaming of eating and drinking here again and can't wait to become a regular.“
“I recently visited Four Points Brewing and was thoroughly impressed! This hidden gem in Pittsburgh is a haven for craft beer lovers. From the moment I walked in, the welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff made the experience delightful. They have an impressive selection of beers, with each offering its own unique and rich flavors that cater to both aficionados and those new to the craft beer scene.The brewery’s space is both cozy and trendy, perfect for a casual hangout with friends or a relaxing solo visit. What stood out to me was their commitment to quality and the passion for brewing that was evident in each pint. Four Points doesn’t just serve beer; they curate an experience that celebrates the craft.The location at 919 Western Avenue is convenient, and their digital presence, reflected in their sleek website, makes it easy to stay updated on their latest creations and events. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, I highly recommend stopping by Four Points Brewing for a pint of their finest.“
“We ate here on a Saturday evening, with a reservation for two at 7.30pm. When we arrived the restaurant was quite full and we had to wait a little while before being seated. At that point, the service was very strong. We tried several dishes, including the salad, miso soup, sashimi plate, nigiri plate, and some hand rolls (mushroom, eel, scallop). We tried the tiramisu, chocolate pudding, and crème caramel for dessert. All in all, the food was tasty, the ambiance was relaxing and pleasant, and service was good. We had a very nice evening.“
“Was very disappointed in the meat lover's Flatbread. It tasted like tomato paste for the sauce and the meat has no flavor. It was plain. I suggest to anyone don't get it. My fiancée had thier Italian hoagie which he felt bad and gave me half of his sandwich to eat. The bartender did ask if I liked it. I did let him know about the pizza not being too good. He just looked and didn't say anything and walked away. I'll still come here. But that flat bread has to go. I don't even see how that one is on the menu! Everything else so far I tasted from there is good.“
“Fun little southside bar. I usually go for trivia on Wednesdays and it's always a great time. Only complaint is it's a very small bar and doesn't have a lot of seating.All of the food I've tried has been good also. I highly recommend trying the wings.“
“Soo good ? The food is bomb?, I had the Philly steak with mushrooms and beer cheese, a side of fries and my husband had the Rodeo burger ? with fries also we had the Fish sandwich/fries and the twice fried chicken wings with the house bbq/onion rings and everything was cooked to perfection and so delicious.“
“The experience started with the warm welcome from the staff. From the security to the bartender, they were all friendly and pleasant. The food was really good and seemed to be fairly priced for the area, although I still feel the area is overpriced in general. The process of getting into the venue was easy and organized. The space was a beautifully quaint and well-used venue. The crowd for a sellout was the perfect size and it was not overcrowded. The acoustics of the venue were very excellent and the price of tickets was phenomenal. If there is a downside, it is the parking, however it is free in the evening, which beats $40-$50 at most other venues. I will certainly be back just for the experience. Amazing work!“
“The Food and Drinks are Spectacular!The Service is Amazing and attentive!I recommend the Taquitos as a Appetizer!WOW! So Amazing! I can't wait to go back and try some more items.Fish Tacos definitely lived up to the Hype I heard!So Good!!!Highly Recommended!Parking is not an issue a Parking Garage is located just a few steps from the Restaurant. Also it's free Parking under an Hour in the Garage so it's not that bad.Well worth it!“
“Friendly bar staffFun drinksGood foodFun vibeGot the pierogi, which comes deep fried with the most incredible onion jam. The pierogi tasted like Mrs T's from the frozen section but that jam did laps around the restaurant. It was incredible.My friend got the pink drink which tasted like pink and white animal cookies.A fun place to stop on a stumble down Carson.“
“What a gem! Totally in love with this cozy family-run restaurant where every food was exceptionally tasted. The in-house desserts are out of this world experience. Fantastic service, friendly atmosphere, clean. Ask for Chief recommendations! Loved ethnic design and famous Hungarian music. Will be back!Parking: 4 parking spots next to building and plenty across stress.“
“I am so happy this place exists! These are the best cocktails I have had since we moved to the area from the San Francisco Bay Area. So impressed by the staff, everyone is so friendly and every drink has been fantastic. We will definitely be back!“
“Well I’m from Dayton,Ohio and I had a really good time at Denise and Earls. The food is delicious, the people were enjoying themselves to the fullest. Everyone had good vibes from the staff to the crowd. I will definitely be back when I come to Pittsburgh.I really enjoyed the passing of the mic and fun performances by the crowd.“
“A bar that simply cares. From listing the origin of the various cocktails, to the variety of the liquers that are the stars of each drink,this place truly has something to offer for everyone from all walks of life. Cocktails range from less than 10 years to over 120 years old, and countries across the world. This is a curated collection that's served with honor and care. I highly recommend a visit, and if you're not sure where to venture, ask the very knowledgeable staff. Thanks again for the experience, we will definitely be back when in town!“
“Great little spot with friendly staff / owner and nice local hometown feel ❣️ we stopped in for dinner with a toddler and infant and got a nice quiet booth where they provided coloring materials for the toddler as well as a booster seat. The service was wonderful! They also support a new local brewery (Magnetar) and the beer was delicious!!! We will definitely be back when we want a low key family night out ?“
“Two words. Wings and watermelon long Island. OK that was more than two words but you get my point..I have never had wings and drinks so darn good. The food is good, the drinks are strong, the music will have you singing and dancing! Great establishment!!!“
“love this place so much. I've been coming for years and always have a great time. the food is always amazing, quick and hot. the staff is so friendly and always willing to help. the bartender phy is the best. ask her for a tequila recommendation and you'll never be disappointed.“
“After being invited many times, I finally got out with some friends to try the Elks Pittsburgh famous Friday lenten fish fry. And overall, it definitely lived up to the hype.For $17, you get a huge fish sandwich and two generous sides. I went with Mac and Cheese and fries, and it was definitely a comfort food experience. The bar has very fair prices, and the staff run what is inherently a chaotic situation extremely well. Just get their early, or be ready to wait in line. Definitely worth a trip.“
“Always have a good time here! The bar is clean. The bar food is good. And the drinks are delicious! Bartenders are all super friendly and I love when they have alexia events like the Meatball contest, etc. My only complaint... it can be kind of loud. Sound deafening materials on the ceiling should definitely be in the future. Otherwise, call me a regular!“
“The food was very flavorful and unexpected in a good way. Tasted even better than descriptions on the menu. Cocktails were really yummy too. Our server Heather was attentive and helpful. Really enjoyed the entire experience from beginning to end!“
“I’m traveling from Oregon and stopped by for drinks and food. This is an amazing establish. Reviews don’t do justice. Highly highly recommend stopping by for a quick sip and bite. Everyone was really kind to me. As a solo traveler I wasn’t sure what I would get into. I got a simple shrimp in the basket and it was SO GOOD. Omg. I can go on and on about Squirrel Hill Cafe. From Oregon to Pittsburgh, put this one on your list to check out“
“The food at this place as absolutely great. We always compare food with the best Mexican restaurant we’ve ever been to (in Arizona) and this is the closest competitor we’ve had so far. The guacamole was great, so were the deserts. The one complaint we had was the music is so loud it’s hard to talk with people at your own table. We wish the music was a little quieter. Other than that, it was great!Parking: We had to park at the bank. It’s pretty difficult to find parking unfortunately.“
“Wednesday night at Hog Head's Bar for trivia was a blast! We spotted it on Facebook and thought we'd give it a shot. It was so much fun that my group and I have officially declared it a weekly tradition. The categories kept us on our toes, and the music was spot-on. Who knew Wednesdays could be this entertaining? Hog Head's will be our midweek haven, giving us a reason to look forward to hump day! Can't wait to get friends from work to come and join! Kudos to them for making trivia nights the highlight of our week!“
“Went to a private party upstairs, about 40-50 people, a little tight for moving around with plenty of seating available for all. Food was good, wings hot with a variety of sauces to use, Mac and cheese bits and burritos. Had pulled beef and chicken on slider buns. Mac and cheese was very good-creamy. Open bar with fair choice of beers and liquor for the party.“
“We had a wonderful dinner. The food was prepared perfectly by Executive Chef Nick Senske and his team. The cauliflower and truffle dip was sooo delicious as was the carrott appetizer. We shared three pasta dishes, all were delicious. The Short rib casserchia was very tasty! We will be back.“
“Arsenal has some of my favorite ciders! They have a wide range of flavors from very dry to sweet. I personally love the ginger cider. They also serve a variety of tasty sandwiches. The pastrami is delicious. There’s also the option to sit outside on their roof deck during the warmer months. Cheers!“
“This place ROCKS. I really can’t pinpoint what it is, but every single time I’ve walked through that door, I laughed till I cried, drank good and danced all night long. Julie behind the bar is a very important piece to this puzzle. Best bartender ever, hands down!“
“Stopped by for some beers & basic bar grubs during a weekday dinner time. Good beer choices. Their smash burger was great. Fries were a bit saltier than my taste but that's me nitpicking. Friendly barkeep, chill atmosphere during their slow hours.“
“My personal favorite cocktail bar in the 412 area. The vibe is awesome, very authentic speakeasy feel with the lightbulb outside and minimal storefront advertising. I'm almost hesitant to leave a review bc I like this being a hidden gem!“
“This place is really like night and day compared to how it was previously! It looks 10 times better. The pool table is an absolute plus. Everything looks upgraded. The foods delicious. The drinks are fun and the vibes are great. I keep telling everyone to go check it out because I was in complete shock.“
“Came for a bite to eat and wasn't disappointed at all. Our Apps of brisket nachos & jerk chicken lettuce wraps were delicious. It was wing nite so we tried soy Thai, Nashville Hot, & Hot Garlic Parm. Yummy yummy. Finished off with a homemade dessert. ??? We'll definitely be back “
“Decided to try a new place to eat at, and the Willow Station restaurant didn't disappoint. Ordered the fish sandwich and it was delicious. Also had the Irish cheesecake and it was delectable. I would definitely recommend coming here to dine with family or friends, because the restaurant was immaculate, has a great welcoming atmosphere and the staff are very friendly.“
“My coworker and I decided that a night on the town was much needed but wanted a different scene than the norm. Jekyll and Hyde was exactly what the doctor ordered! I loved the decor and the drinks were fantastic and quite affordable (I had spooky juice and my coworker had their signature, the Jack-O-Lantern). I also enjoyed the live karaoke and will be back soon for some good ole spooky fun!“
“Absolutely loved this place! There was quite a line up on a Friday night but we were seated quickly and the host was lovely. It had a wonderful atmosphere and a small but enticing menu. Loved the chalk board display for all of their craft beers. We ended up trying a wood-fired pizza and it was some of the best we've had. Good location and absolutely worth trying. Highly recommend trying the Calabrian pizza.“
“My wife's friend had a little party there and we had a nice time and the fried chicken was on point so I definitely want to thank the cook. The drinks were pretty good too but if there was one thing they could improve on it is making Margaritas which weren't too good but I will still give 5 stars ?“
“Best neighborhood bar you can find.Locals are welcoming and bartenders are great. The view is great and the owners are kind - everyone looks after each other and unless there's a random j**** you'll be treated well.tldr/ Great prices, great view, great neighborhood.“
“What a stunnnnnnning coffee shop/cafe!!! Loved the historic building, stunning natural light soaked lounge area, plants & allll the vibes! Seriously, beautiful! We stopped in for an oat milk latte and it was out of this work! Perfectly frothed, creamy & strong espresso! So happy we stopped in here! It was such a vibe & the best coffee! ☕️“
“Lefty's is a great place to grab an ice cold beer when you need a break from the crowded streets of the Strip District. The beer I ordered was seriously the closest beer I have ever been served at a bar. The bartender was welcoming and the price was reasonable. Indoor seating is available as well as a few outdoor seats in case you want to continue people watching during your beer break.“
“This bar/restaurant is fantastic! I would give it 15 stars if I could. The bartender, Charley, is incredibly talented. He made the BEST espresso martini I have ever had. The food was delicious. My husband and I each got fish sandwiches which tasted incredible. Their soups are homemade and we tried the seafood chowder and their cream of mushroom soup. Both soups were out of this world! Compliments to the chef, for sure! The atmosphere was wonderful. The natural handmade wooden bar-top is a focal point for sure! Overall it was a really enjoyable time! This is a great spot and I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone! You won’t be disappointed!“
“Two words: hidden gem. Commerce Bar has a sleek and sophisticated atmosphere. The cocktails are expertly crafted by skilled bartenders that take pride in their work. It shows in the finished product. The vibe here is both relaxed and upscale. As a plant lover, I loved the photos trailing from the planters along the skylight. The music is unique.“
“Great neighborhood place to have a drink and quick bite, hear a live band on the weekends or shoot a game of pole during the week. Outdoor deck area for smoking you can bring your drink on the deck just don't walk off the deck with your alcohol. Plenty of parking available and usually a decent crowd.“
“I tend to enjoy menus that encourage you to build your own entrees, so that's a plus here. Good ingredients served on sustainable-ware.Huge windows but faces a parking lot.Vegetarian options: The tofu was crisp and tasty! Lots of sauce and condiments combinations to keep things seasoned.“
“I photographed Jen & Josh's wedding here and it was a fantastic experience. The location is second to none in Pittsburgh with its amazing views of the city, and the food and service are outstanding. It is a great location for photos as well. I highly recommend it!“
