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!“

Hanna was our server and she truly is exceptional! She made everything perfect! The food is always tasty and plentiful. In addition, Amanda, the manager is phenomenal! I still can't figure out how she remembers us each time we come to dine. This is a testament to her customer service skills and professionalism. Thank you Hanna, Amanda, and the entire team who work behind the scenes ensuring a dining experience second to none. See you in April for my birthday.“

Our food was very good and the blueberry hotcakes were outstanding. Bacon and potatoes were delicious, This was a hidden gem for breakfast we accidentally found and can’t wait to go back from Morgantown, WV“

“I gave my mom a gift card here for Mother’s Day. She said she had “the best meal” she’s had in a long time. Her friend who accompanied her was in agreement. The brunch pictures I received looked absolutely fantastic. Thank you for providing a 5 star experience on such a special day!“

“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.“

“Great Cocktails, Forgettable Food in Downtown Pittsburgh

Booked Bourbon & Bridges through Resy for a solo dinner and was happy to put my Amex Resy credits to use. Conveniently located right across from the Courtyard downtown where I usually stay on business trips, it sits on a lively strip of bars and restaurants that makes for an easy evening stop.

The space itself has a great atmosphere — stylish décor with an impressive display of spirits behind the bar that immediately sets the tone for a cocktail-focused experience. The drink menu is extensive, with plenty of creative options. I ordered the Renegade — made with gin, peach nectar, passionfruit liqueur, lemon juice, simple syrup, and blueberry boba pearls — and it was excellent. Refreshing, balanced, and fun without being overly sweet.

Food was more mixed. The grilled chicken sandwich, served on a pretzel bun with chipotle aioli and toppings, was unfortunately pretty bland and forgettable. The Brussels sprouts were much better — nicely pan-fried with great flavor, although slightly sweeter than I would have preferred.

Overall, Bourbon & Bridges is worth visiting for the drinks and atmosphere more than the food. I’d absolutely come back to work through more of the cocktail menu.“

“It was a great place for a date night, saw a great show and had good apps and even took two bottles of wine home for a fire afterwards“

“Supereme Nachos were loaded with all the right toppings—perfect for sharing.“

“Lovely atmosphere with plants, fun decor, and sunlight everywhere, one of the prettiest places to grab a drink! And the drinks are also just as pretty and delicious, with a bunch of of different flavors and combos, they also can craft something for you, but the specials are so varied that you can def find something you like!

Also the staff was great and made sure to check what flavors and strength you would like to steer you in the right direction, would definitely recommend!“

“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.“

“Bottle of water waiting at table, kind and attentive service all around. Lovely decorations on walls and ceiling. Loud as a hockey game. Long wait after 10am on Saturday. Good, pricey coffee; the food is not particularly expensive. Good beer and big bacon in the bloody. Giant dinosaur eggs on the Benedict, but not close to hot.“

“We found this absolute gem after we were at a farmers market and WOW! Mo and Quinn were fantastic. We had a wonderful bottle of Cava with the cheese plate and it was absolutely fantastic and very reasonably priced. Great vibe, great music, great service! We will definitely be back“

“MY friend and I went there on Saturday to celebrate our birthdays..Our server Adam was simply amazing. He patiently waited for us to decide on our drink order and went as far as to let us try the drink to see if we liked it, which we didn’t but he took it off our bill and then brought us a birthday card and wished us a happy birthday. The food was very delicious. But our main complaint comes down to Adam !! He was so fantastic and such a kind person . They truly have a rare gem in him as an employee! I hope they appreciate him because he is what makes it a truly wonderful experience there. We will definitely go back there and if we are lucky Adam will be our server.!!!“

“Pearl was outstanding and very accommodating. Definitely a great asset to the establishment.“

“I am a foodie for sure and this experience was a flavor explosion!! The beets were a texture fantasy with a crunch and sweet savory home run. And the Striploin?!!!!! Filet tenderness with a better than NY strip flavor (how is it possible?). Second only to my NYC Wagyu A5 favorite. I was a little hesitant when I first saw the menu, but nothing disappointed at all! Would definitely recommend and return with friends for that steak!!! Chef Dave is a Master of flavors. Shame on me for reviewing before dessert. COME FOR THE DESSERT!! SMH. Creativity of the highest order. I can see why this place is packed tonight. Bring a date, bring your family, impress a client. You will not regret it. And ask for Crystal! She loves representing this food. You can feel it!“

“Service was great and the burger I got was delicious I would highly recommend you try it out when your in Pittsburgh“

“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.“

“Went here tonight for my wife’s birthday. We just moved out to the east end this winter and have been trying to find good spots for a night out. This place has surpassed dinners we’ve had on vacations. Our food was incredible. Everything was absolutely delicious and looked just as good, if not better. We cannot wait to go back and try other things on their menu.
We ordered the bucatini and the chicken parm for our entrees and they were both incredible. The bucatini was perfect. I cannot recommend this place enough.“

“Jody B's has been a family favorite for years now. It's a reminder of what great restaurants were like years ago. I take my mother there as often as possible. She's quite elderly now and the staff is always very patient and accommodating. We appreciate them hope to continue dining there for years to come.“

“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!“

“Came here for the first time to kill time before a movie in the afternoon and this place is awesome. Got a bacon burger and its absolutely the best in the city, incredible price for everything you get and absolutely massive portion. The bartender Billy was super attentive and friendly, great chatting with him. Interacted with multiple other staff members, great interactions overall. Definitely will be back!“

“We looked for a great place to eat, in close proximity to our hotel. Searching the internet, Carmody's Grille seemed to stick out for us! My French Dip Sandwich was excellent, as was the Grilled Cheese with bacon! The staff made us feel at home, and Emily went above and beyond to make our visit great, including charging our dead phone! Thank you Emily!“

“Andra Moorea is the best option too run to if you are new into stock market she has been the best I have worked with and i recommend“

“The bartender working Thanksgiving Day 2025 (Jeff?) was so kind and helpful, we invented a drink together when I couldn’t settle on anything he’d typically serve. He even offered to go pick up ingredients that he didn’t have on hand.
Thank you very much!! Such a cozy vibe and perfect for this snowy weather. ❄️“

“Absolutely gorgeous flowers for my mother-in-laws funeral. Jen listened to what we wanted and went above and beyond with her creations. The flowers that others ordered from her were also beautiful and complimented ours nicely. So grateful for the care she put into her work. I would strongly recommend.“

“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!“

“Was in from Cleveland to go see a show nearby. Stopped here for dinner and it was such a good choice. The key lime mead was to die for! I haven't stopped thinking about it since I drank it...Food was also great. Perfect portion sizes. Not to big and not too small. They even let me customize it a bit which was nice.“

“Fun group of patrons . Various ages and types, a great place to have a few drinks and mingle with all. Available parking and great Service. No downside“
