Don’t answer the phone. Listed hours and menu are not current.
Horrible experience. I made a reservation through open table for a morning brunch, but when I arrived, there was no one at the host stand and the entire restaurant was completely empty. I went to the front desk of the hotel to ask if someone would be there to seat us and the concierge rudely told me that they don't accept reservations for Brick Shop, even though I was holding the confirmations in my hand? She told me I could seat myself and someone would be there to take care of me, but after 15 minutes of sitting, not a single person looked at me or came to give me a menu or take my order. Just save yourself time and don't give this business your money.
So Disappointing...I booked through the TRYP Events Manager a reservation approx 1.5 months before this BIG wknd ... it was my Daughter's Graduation, she's valedictorian and we had family in town and STAYING at the TRYP hotel. I was NOT informed the BrickShop was CLOSED, we walked in and NO restaurant so we went to the Over Eden w/NO reservations. Unfortunately, it wasn't a good experience. Beautiful views but everything else was pretty bad. I feel sorry for the staff that works up there. Expensive experience ... only fun/good for views and maybe one drink, although bar tender needs to review Old Fashion recipe.

the rooftop outside seating is attractive on good weather days, the view of downtown Pittsburgh is very unique and unmatched. Great brunch spot, menu selection and presentation.
We had the chicken sandwich and the flat bread. Both were excellent. Service was good and friendly.
Modern minimalist style. Medium-sized restaurant and bar. We were a party of two couples. The two men had well-made Manhattan cocktails and wine with dinner, and the ladies stuck with wine. We all had the beet/arugula salad to start, my date loved it; I could have done with a half salad. Three of us had salmon on risotto with asparagus; All were delicious, but the risotto was only lukewarm and this detracted from the meal. One of us had the short ribs; she oved it and we were all jealous looking at that dish. The other couple ordered a beautiful-looking limoncello cake for dessert. Two of us ordered coffee; it was free, but the downside was that it was served in Styrofoam cups, it was lukewarm, and it tasted like gas station coffee. A restaurant that can cost $120 for two (including liquor, wine and tax, but not tip) should serve real coffee. All in all OK, but the food should be warmer and they should have real coffee. One last thing, we were surprised to find live music (a singer/guitarist) but the music was too loud for talking. The music was quite pleasant, just too loud.
Located in the downstairs of the newer Tryp hotel in Lawrenceville, the Brick House is a comfortable venue with interesting and delicious food, and a well stocked and well-tended bar. We showed up early enough so that the place was practically empty, but really enjoyed our dinner. The pickle board was an interesting choice, and the flatbreads were almost crunchy, but with novel ingredients and really tasty.
The food served at the Brick Shop is solidly delicious and well done. Lawrenceville needs to support this restaurant.

The food was okay. The drinks were okay. Everything was a little over priced. Valet is $10 for guests even though the entire lot was empty. I probably wouldn't make it a point to return.

I recently dined at the historic restaurant, and I have to say, it was an incredible experience. The atmosphere was charming and cozy, with a rustic vibe that truly made me feel like I was stepping back in time. The history of the restaurant was also a highlight for me, as a brick mason, I was particularly impressed with the building's structure and the way it was beautifully preserved.But what really stood out for me was the exceptional service provided by our waiter, Cody. Not only was he incredibly friendly and attentive, but he also took the time to explain the history of the restaurant to us in great detail, which made the experience all the more special.The quality of food was also outstanding. Each dish was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The flavors were well-balanced and expertly crafted, making for a truly memorable meal. And to top it off, the prices were very reasonable, making it a great value for the quality of food and service.In short, I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience. The atmosphere, history, service, quality of food, and price all deserve a five-star rating. And a special shout-out to Cody, who made the evening even more enjoyable with his fantastic service. Keep up the great work! Five Stars!
Went here for Pittsburgh Restaurant Week. I was disappointed because they didn’t have have half the menu they were promoting. All they had was the salmon option. The fried mac and cheese was delicious! We tried to order more but then they ran out of that too! Cute ambience though. And our waiter was cool.
visited for brunch (happenstance that the head chef jason was working that day) fantastic menu, excellent food great waitstaff (becca and Cody)Only one complaint, they have acoustic music and jazz on occasion, butthere is no way to know when they have it. it would be good if the schedule was placed on their website as opposed to just social media alone. that in itself would cause us to come here to hear the music.
A very fun and comfortable atmosphere. LOVE the trivia on Thursdays! Def recommend checking it out
