50 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Pittsburgh

“Amazing food, generous portions and incredible service!“

“Best momo 🥟 love soup(Jhol)momo.“

“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.“

“This place is great! The food is traditional Venezuelan items, the portions are huge, and it's delicious! Limited seating inside with barstools and bartop for eating, best to get your food to go, as it gets crowded pretty quick around dinner. The owners are kind and quite friendly, if you have questions please feel free to ask. Will definitely be back again, this place is what makes Pittsburgh great.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“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!“

“Best fried chicken in the town“

“This has going to be the nicest location that I have been to.. the employees here are great amazing customer service still coming from somebody who's been in customer service for over 20 years just overall 100 out of 100 keep up the good work guys“

“This is the goated Chick-fil-a location! Whether you order through the drive thru, in the restaurant, or on your phone, the service is incredible (usually under 10 minutes from order to food ready). The staff takes great pride in keeping the dining area clean for customers and they have employees wiping down tables regularly. Staff is very friendly and they genuinely care about you as a customer here. Would definitely recommend the Fox Chapel location to anyone nearby looking for a chick-fil-a.“

“Amazing juicy fresh tasty tacos! Absolutely go for it. Loved the shrimp with fajitas tacos and they were well done and so so good. The sauce it came with absolutely yummy. It's made of jalapeno, sour cream, cilantro! So fresh and yummy“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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 :)“

“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.“

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

“fast friendly service good prices. clean.“

“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.“

“Great chicken flavors!!!!“

“Family enjoyed every bite Fast, delicious & memorable“

“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!“

“Great late night bite to eat.“

“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!! 🫶🖤💛🖤💛💯“

“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!“

“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“

“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“

“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 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??“

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

“This Taco Bell is the best. The young lady with the blonde hair that works mornings is so nice and always makes sure everything is correct. The older gentleman who works nights with the best attitude is just as great as well. Food is always great.“

“One of the cleanest Burger Kings I've ever been in! Plenty of booths & tables. Ample parking. They had a coloring station for the kids with crayons & pages. They even hung up some of their artwork. Very family friendly. I used a coupon no problem. Order was fast and accurate. Food was hot. Whoever is training and managing the team is doing a great job. Highly recommend.“

“Awesome Customer Service! The girl there today Went above and beyond. With no truck stops around it's hard to get food when you run out in the truck. I stopped today and called. The lady came out took my money and brought me my food! Thank you so much! Thank you for helping us Truckers! 👍👍“

“Great service, clean, and fast“

“I've been to many, many different Jersey Mike's around the entire country - even the original one in Point Pleasant. The staff do a phenomenal job here and make this place the best one out of all the ones I've been to. It's always clean, the food is really good, and service is top notch. Over several visits the last few months it's been consistent too. This is a well deserved 5 stars. Thank you!!!“

“We went on a Saturday evening around 6:30 pm. We used the app to order, which was pretty difficult to get started. We got there about 5 minutes before our pick-up time, and got our food around 5 minutes past our pick-up time. The food was great! Hot and very good. We did not get drinks or shakes this time. We took advantage of their free cups of triple-filtered water.“

“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.“

“People were friendly and being on a road trip I asked how much for filling our big cups with ice thinking it would be a charge for ice nope all they said was you just need ice go ahead and have a nice day and here's your two ice cream sundaes Sir is there anything else“

“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%.“

“The food was what you would expect. Good but obviously still fast food. Service was exceptional. Staff were extremely polite and friendly, moreso than most fast food restaurants, about on par with a nice diner. Would visit again next time I'm passing through and need something quick to eat. Not having to deal with rude or lazy staff is worth driving a little out of the way for this Wendy's, within reason.“

“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)“

“Baby let me tell you something. I live down the road from this location and I order delivery often because I be drunk and just ordering stuff. I order the same thing every time I get that grilled cheese burrito with chicken instead of beef. Tonight I ordered what I always order and I really had the best grilled cheese burrito in my entire TB ordering career. I called the store. Tayana answered and she said her and and coworker made the order together and I told her how AMAZING that order was. I am so happy I would cuss if I was allowed to. Thank you Tayana and the team. Love yall down.“

“I had such a wonderful experience at Shake Shack in the Pittsburgh terminal thanks to Paula. She was working in the dining room and went above and beyond to help both me and my mother. Her kindness, patience, and positive attitude truly stood out and made our visit so much better. It’s rare to come across customer service that genuine anymore, and Paula was absolutely amazing. She deserves recognition for how well she treats guests. Thank you again for making our experience such a great one“
