50 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Pittsburgh

“Best momo 🥟 love soup(Jhol)momo.“

“Amazing food, generous portions and incredible service!“

“The great fast-food, nay, the greatest restaurant to ever exist. Incredible staff. Incredible family focused special events. Incredible food and out of this world quality.“

“Absolutely the best Italian beef I’ve had since Chicago! Curtis and staff are always friendly and welcoming! This will always be a regular spot for me!“

“Let’s be honest the people are the best part of Chick-fil-A. In my opinion, the food could be a little better quality, but the training here and the quality of service is second to none. A true picture of what good training and treating your employees can look like. On their fast food restaurant should take a note but they don’t.“

“The mac and cheese is delicious the wait time and service was great. The line may look long but its not it went really fast the wait time for my order was less than 6 minutes. It was my first time going through the drive thru and it was worth it.“

“Food is always great at Five Guys, so no complaints here. The staff was also very friendly. We had a newborn in the parking lot and had eaten out food in the car, so we were parked outside for a while (our baby then had thrown up so we were outside of the car cleaning up and such) and because of that a staff member came out and asked if we were okay which was really nice!“

“Food is amazing, you can taste the freshness. Very clean and fast service. would def recommend it to everyone who's at t he mall.“

“Team member Chris was our cashier today. It was extremely busy and he was kind and polite. Thank you for your good customer service!“

“My fiancé and I stopped in after leaving the Katy Williams show and both of us ordered the mad chicken sandwich, rice and coleslaw and fries. Everything was fresh and amazing. Mad chicken has never disappointed me.

Thank you.“

“Pepitos is a very unique blend of American and Peruvian food. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. I went with some friends who got some of the burgers, and I tried the big boy sandwich. Prices are very reasonable as the sandwiches are massive and come with a big side of bacon cheese fries. The burgers were big enough to be split into 2 meals, and my big boy sandwich was big enough for 4 meals easily. Everyone enjoyed their food, and many of the sandwiches were unlike anything I’ve ever had in a good way. All the ingredients complimented each other. I’ll definitely be back to try some a burger or hot dog next time.“

“This was my first time going there. I've heard so much about them now. I live just down the street from them. I had ordered the chicken ranch and bacon sandwich. The sandwich was horrible. It had a 1 a piece of bacon on it that looked like it was sitting around for about a week. It was soggy and black and dark. Now, we all know. Bacon is supposed to be crispy if I didn't ask for the onions, I guess that's all that would have been on. There would be just the bacon in the sauce. The sandwich was called and so was the fries. The fries did not have any salt on them. All I can say is that it was horrible. And I will not be going back again. I do not understand how they got 4 or 5 stars.“

“Taste of the juicy glistening bite of juice!! Not overly burnt just the right taste!!

One of the best burger places to quickly grab and go or either eat there! They always have friendly staff and acknowledge you! If there were any problems the managers will quickly address the problem and try to make everything right just for happy customer and raving fan! Will always come back to enjoy the food and their environment!! 🫶🖤💛🖤💛💯“

“Best fried chicken in the town“

“Great late night bite to eat.“

“I had the best food last evrything was great the food the service thank you“

“Only go once a year...Cheat. Right across from New Balance where I go to buy SUMMER shoes every CINCO de mayo.“

“Don't like that it's hard to find parking. Unfortunately the location attacks a lot of homeless people, a guy was laying on the ground out front an the outside just looks very dirty an smell of urine. Inside was clean. Food was ok the batter didn't stick well to the tenders. The employees was very nice an respectful.“

“Delicious pizza in a nice setting with employees who care about doing right by you!

I don't visit Blaze s super often but I'm always very happy with my decision to get a pizza from there.

🌟 I have always found the employees to be kind, friendly and accommodating.“

“This is probably one of the most well kept, managed and consistent branch in Pittsburgh. Food is always consistently good, service is always exceptional and they always get your order correct. Also as a door dasher, they make it really easy for you to get your order and go, even when extremely busy. I commend the management and the owner of this branch.“

“Great chicken flavors!!!!“

“Don't sleep on the burgers and puppies. The seasoning on the puppies was divine... and the fries were sooo amazing! I wanted the chicken but couldn't have it the day I ate takeout, but it was so delicious and no frills good. Classic.“

“There are restaurants… and then there are institutions forged in the molten core of flavor itself—and Brighton Hot Dog Shoppe is not just an institution… it’s a full-blown, chili-slinging, cheese-drenched LEGEND. You walk in thinking you’re getting a hot dog. No. What you’ve actually done is step into a dimension where culinary restraint has been banished and replaced with one sacred law: “Put chili and cheese on it.” Hot dog? Chili and cheese. Fries? DROWN THEM. Burger? Absolutely disrespect it with chili and cheese. Your sense of self-control? ALSO smothered in chili and cheese. There are no rules here. No judgment. Only absolute, unapologetic excess. And the chili?? That’s not just chili. That’s a spiritual experience. That’s the kind of sauce that makes you question every other life decision that didn’t involve being within a 5-mile radius of this place. It doesn’t sit on the food—it claims territory. And then the cheese… oh the cheese… it doesn’t melt. It descends. Like some divine, golden waterfall of dairy righteousness just cascading over everything in sight like it’s fulfilling an ancient prophecy. But here’s where it gets UNHINGED… THE PRICE. I don’t know what kind of economic sorcery is happening behind that counter, but you can walk in with what feels like loose pocket lint and walk out with a tray that looks like it’s meant to feed a small militia. You check the receipt like: “Did I just rob them??” “Is this legal??” “Is someone going to stop me in the parking lot??” It’s not just affordable—it’s mythical. Like they’re operating on 1997 prices out of pure defiance of reality. Other places are out here charging luxury car payments for a sad burger and a handful of fries. Meanwhile, Brighton Hot Dog Shoppe is like: “Here’s a mountain of food, covered in chili and cheese, for the price of your dignity. Enjoy.” This isn’t a meal. This is a reckoning. You don’t eat here—you submit.“

“Best Ice Cream cakes ever!!! My family loves them🥰“

“fast friendly service good prices. clean.“

“Family enjoyed every bite Fast, delicious & memorable“

“Manager of Scott Township is wonderful! He drove part of my missing order down to me (we share the same plaza). Just wanted to express my gratitude. Thanks again for being awesome :)“

“The food is good . A little pricey but it’s worth the money.“

“Some of the best burgers I've had, nice hotdogs as well. My partner had one of their new veggie burgers last time and she loved it.
It's nice that they always ask before adding toppings or condiments, my partner can't have mayo and some other places will just slap it on without asking.
Overall, really good food, pretty damn quick at a damn good price. Can't recommend enough.

P.S. Get their cheese and bacon fries, you'll thank me later“

“First time coming to this location because we went here for lunch yesterday and I'd say our experience was excellent. The service was very quick. Got our orders within like 5 minutes and everything was served hot and delicious.

I wish I took pics of our orders but we were both starving, but I enjoyed the curly fries, the Angus cheesesteak (this was so good, I wish it's not a limited item), and their chicken tenders - which by far - the best tasting tenders I've had. Better than other restaurants around.

Also, kudos to the staff keeping this restaurant clean and well maintained. One of your staffs cleaned up the tables and the tables of other people after they left.

Will definitely come back here again.“

“I went here this afternoon for lunch with my mom and twins. It was the most professional McDonald's I have ever been too. The employees made the food quick and the order was correct. The gentleman who walks around helping people in the dining room was great and very helpful considering my twins are a handful. This was the best McDonald's experience Ive ever had.“

“First of all… CUSTOMER SERVICE IS EXCELLENT!

I order for my residents at an apt building downtown Pittsburgh.

We usually get chicken parm , chicken salad, chicken breast and fries.

We get it delivered as well.

It’s always fresh TASTY and most importantly affordable!!!

The residents always say the love the food and it was a good amount and the love the fact you get a soda with the catered meals.

Thank you for contributing to our great times!“

“Always wonderful experience and recommend everyone absolutely best place to eat .“

“I order from here all the time because the sandwiches are delicious! Today, they forgot the mayo and pepper relish on both of our sandwiches so they were very dry and boring. I like to order online to customize my sandwich but what's the point if they skip the ingredients you want to add??“

“my favorite food is the salad the most because it's more healthy than anything else. I ordered from you guys today and the girl from the register she did not put any souce in my bag of food for my French fries.“

“The staff here on Ardmore Boulevard impressed me with their service, accuracy of my order, friendliness of the staff, attention to detail…, I cannot say enough positive praises about my experience here!
I left with a very positive impression, and will return. Thank you for a great dining experience!“

“There aren't too many of these places left and I'm glad this one in Penn Hills got it together, cause they used to be HORRIBLE. They have improved in a MAJOR way as far as the SERVICE. The past few times I've been in there, the people taking the orders were prompt and polite. Even if they were busy, someone at least acknowledged you. That alone went a long way compared to what it used to be. I'm thankful for the new leadership in that place, it's made a difference. The food is what the food is. Lol. It's still good ole Long John Silver. It's nice, cause it's hasn't taken forever to get the food either. The crew in the kitchen was on it. And heck.... They even have a large type matt on the floor where you order your food, so your not sliding your feet across the floor from all the grease in the air lol ... Great job Long Silver, I hope they are able to keep up the now good service.“

“Great burgers , fries & milkshakes“

“Aiden’s a really cool server. Listened keenly to what I needed ordered and went out of his way to get my Cheese Steak extra toasted! It’s the little things in customer service…but Aiden did it all well! Bless him! :)“

“Nice place, clean, and the food is great. Service was also quick. While I suspect no one is going here for an immersive atmosphere, I wish it was more visually interesting inside. Would recommend stopping if you're in the area and hungry for a good smash burger. Sides are also quality“

“Came back from the bar and was in the mood for a chicken sammich. Rolled into BK. Wait time was minimal and the staff were friendly. Asked for Ranch, got it! Thanks. This chicken sandwich compared to Wendy's isnt bad. Wendy's is hotter now....(BK step up your game!) But overall was pretty tasty. Got Wendy's the other night and they only had tomato and mayo. BK had everything on it that was supposed to be on it, so good impression. Its the small things that count. Also, I believe BK is cheaper than Wendy's for a spicy chicken sammich. The overall texture wasn't bad however Wendy's is more solid. Hard to explain. This could warrant further analysis. Perhaps the bun or the chicken itself and the breading. Given I've had W and BK back to back this week I'd say overall its a tie with price, quality, and attention to detail.“

“I had a great experience during my first visit to Firehouse Subs. I was going to work, and stopped by here to get the sandwich. The food was excellent, fresh, and full of flavour. I ordered the Hook & Ladder sandwich, and I would highly recommend trying it — it was delicious and made perfectly.

I would also like to shoutout to the girl working there who helped me choose and customize the best sandwich. She was very kind and happily added extra toppings to make it exactly how I wanted. She provided amazing customer service and made my visit even better.

I was very satisfied with both the food and the service, and I will definitely be visiting this store again. Highly recommend giving Firehouse Subs a try!“

“Wow! The three African American men working today were EXCELLENT! Respectful, courteous, and made my grams day. They deserve a raise and more. Keep them on board. This is what good customer service looks like. Thank you fellas 🙏🏾“

“Great food and super staff!
We came in 12•13 at 3 to get some post shopping snacks. We were greeted by a young lady named Tao who was super friendly and patient when taking our order. Her manager, whose name I did not catch but she was a taller lady with curly hair who put down her previous activity to help Tao make our food, was more than happy to chat with us while we waited and even gave us fresh turn-overs! Thanks for making a good day a great one!“

“I've traveled the entire country, and this is without a doubt the best McDonald's I've ever been to. The drive through is fast.

They have tenured staff who you can tell really care about providing good service. They remember your name. If something is wrong, they're always happy to make it right.

The food? It's McDonald's, and you get what you pay for, but it's consistently prepared correctly. Take-out failure rate is less than 1%.“

“Always wonderful experience and recommend everyone absolutely best place to eat .“

“My third time there in 2 months...the steak is a great hometown taste for a franchise or chain restaurant. People are friendly funny and take pride in what they do I haven’t got past the steak yet because it’s that good. I am going to try something next visit (at least try to)“

“I order from here alot!! When I go to pick my pizza� up it is always ready and hot�... Always a good experience.....“

“Employees very friendly😊👍“

“Great service, clean, and fast“
