“What a cool place! Thanks for hosting our Robert Burns Night!“

“We’re from out of town but liked it so much a couple years ago that it’s our go to place when we’re in Pittsburgh. The happy hour drinks make it very affordable and the popcorn snack is very tasty to go with the beer and cocktails. Nice chill vibe and seems to be a neighborhood spot.“

The memories and story's this place creates is something you just need to experience. Keep doing it the same way my always friends don't change.“

“Super fun and welcoming atmosphere!! Everyone is lovely, the cocktails are creative and delicious, the food is great, AND the patio out back is awesome!“

“A new experience for our group. Took the plunge and got 3 grappa's, but couldn't tell you anything about one over another, except they definitely are 10/10 on the hard core scale. Regardless, cozy spot with our the door wine for sister restaurant around the corner.“

“Easily my favorite restaurant in Pittsburgh. My go to meals there are consistently the same every time. Excellent food and great service, which is hard to find anymore. Eat the best and f**k the rest. Streets On Carson baby!! ❤️🤤“

“...simply, absolutely amazing. You know what the buzz is about...“

“It’s a nice place to get a drink. Great dive bar! And the bartenders were friendly. The neighborhood seemed a little sketchy tho. Drinks were pretty cheap! I wouldn’t go out of my way to visit this bar but if I’m in the area I would definitely stop in again.“

“Very delicious food every time‼️ Never disappointed...treat us like family no matter when we go their. Hometown bar nothing fancy...but we love it‼️“

“Nice place to visit. They have a ok crowd and friendly ppl who work there. I see it is clean and they are upgraded a bit ongoing and I can't wait for it to be done. They offer food outdoors and drinks also. You can sit at a table and enjoy yourself.“

“We LOVED Emerson’s! Such a cute vibe inside! Highly encourage reservations! We made reservations and still had about a 15 minute wait. They do have a cute bar area if you want to pop in for a drink! The crab cakes and Emerson’s burger were incredible! I really enjoyed the burger with the secret sauce! Truffle fries…need I say more? Tons of fun drinks and food options! Make sure to ask them to dim the lights-that is the only “complaint” we had before asking as it was SO BRIGHT at 9pm at night! Otherwise, they delivered. Awesome service, great food, 10/10!“

“Incredible meal, outstanding service, cool vibe. Scallops were fresh, perfectly cooked chicken, and the best Panna cotta I've ever had. I asked the server for pairings and they were all perfect. First time having a Pinela and loved it. I wish I was there with someone to try more. It was a last minute decision to eat here and really only stumbled upon it. So glad I found it! Definitely worth a visit. Make a reservation or get there when they open to sit at the bar.“

“We had the best time here recently!! Food, staff, drinks, all amazing. The courses were fun and they kept things moving smoothly, very organized. We will definitely be back!“

“One of my favorite spots, great service and the oysters are always amazing!“

“We loved The Forge! It is a smaller space, but very cozy and quaint. I'd recommend reservations for a Saturday night. You have a choice of a bar, high top, or couch/chair tables. Everything we had was delicious. We started with the hummus, a cheeseboard and a pizza. And then we had the Tiramisu dessert. We left very full. I would come back again.“

“We stopped here for Mother’s Day during baseball season, right after catching a game at PNC Park (we’re on a mission to visit as many parks as possible this season and next). While the game was a blast, the true highlight of the weekend was our romantic dinner here. The Quilt Cabernet, recommended as a popular, rich, and well balanced Napa Valley wine, was absolutely spot on. It paired beautifully with my wife’s braised short rib, my steak, and the charcuterie board we shared. A perfect ending to a memorable day.“

“One of our top 5 restaurants in our decades of eating out! Inventive, unique, and well crafted cocktails to the Porchetta and Crab Trophie to the amazing Creme Brulee and affagato...All top notch! 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!“

“Had lunch today at Primos and WOW! The Ahbundogas soup 🍜 is the best we’ve ever had. Four large meatballs that alone taste 👅 flavorful. come with rice and portion was great. even a little to take home for later. definitely coming back!“

“Great drinks, incredible Martinis🍸, nice staff! The food was incredible with an incredible variety of dishes!“

“Always delicious! Meghan and Barry where awesome servers and the food was top notch!“

“Fantastic tea and hip atmosphere.. A++“

“Cool concept converting an old church into a restaurant with a cigar lounge in the basement. My experience in the restaurant was excellent. The service was great and the food was as well. Went to the cigar lounge, but the people seemed a bit stuffy compared to other lounges that I have been in. I wanted to get into the humidor, which is a bit small, but it was locked and the female employee never even approached me to ask if I needed anything.“

“One of our absolute favorites. Great, creative margaritas and awesome food, either dine in or take out!“

“Great atmosphere, very friendly workers and great food!!“

“Wonderful atmosphere. Amazing food. Dan was a terrific server. Great experience. Highly recommend!“

“Awesome food and atmosphere“

“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.“

“We frequent this place often - great food, good vibes, and fast service. There is plenty of seating at the bar and the tables at both the front and back of the restaurant. Never had nopal (cactus) before? Give it a try - it’s delicious! And if you like some heat, the homemade salsa that comes with the tacos is fire - literally! Just wash it down with a margarita or mezcal cocktail. You can’t go wrong here.“

“We went to @ritualhousepgh tonight and it was one of the best freaking experiences I have had very long time! Liam was our waiter and did a phenomenal job at anticipating any need we would have, had insighful recommendations, and even surprised us with a dessert experience to end our night. The attention to detail with the food all the way to management was top tier. If you’re in the Burgh make yourself a reservation (request Liam- we promise you won’t be disappointed) and enjoy some hella yummy food and a great experience.“

“These folks are doing some fantastic work with their cocktails. Great flavors, great creativity. Staff is also fantastic. Enjoyed my brief conversations with them around current menu and my particular off-menu order.
5/5 would cuss respectfully at the bartender again.“

“My experience with Hysyde was very wonderful. They’re very professional, wonderful vibes and good food. I want to say that I tried their sour cream and onion chicken and it was delicious. I plan on coming back again. This place deserves 5 stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I recently celebrated my 40th birthday at The Goldmark, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience! From start to finish, everything was perfect. The DJ kept the energy high all night, and the service was top-notch. A special shoutout to Nicole for making the whole process so smooth and easy to coordinate. Highly recommend this bar for any special occasion—definitely an unforgettable night“

“This is a super cute little hideaway bar, posing as a 'speakeasy'. While prohibition is long past, the idea of a secret bar still has a certain cache to it. It feels special. And they get it right here. The atmosphere is amazing. It's a beautiful room, with a skylight and a chandelier. It's stunning. A real 'Wow' moment when you arrive.

Food and beverage are certainly good, but pricey. It looked like there was an upcharge to order off menu. A gin and tonic (with Beefeaters?!) should not cost that I was charged.

The other issue? Service was really slow. Painfully slow. The bar was not at all busy. It was a Thursday. It took easily ten minutes for drinks to be delivered. I watched them sit at the server pickup for 5 minutes, easily.

Also, the bartender was wearing shorts and a ball cap. Looked newly 21. Come on. Class it up already. It's supposed to be a sort of Prohibition era theme park, right? How about a tie? A nice crisp shirt, sleeves rolled up? Maybe a vest?

Great space. Good offerings. Indifferent service. They could try harder, but the service industry has been suffering since the pandemic. It makes me sad. We went to Kelly's afterwards, and had a much better time for half the money.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We stopped in around 6:30 on Friday for some drinks and snacks. The salt and vinegar chicken basket (strips and fries) was the perfect thing to share. The place looked great and the outside area looked cool, but was not open. Lots of big TVs and great bar stools - comfy with a back - but no bar foot rail or hooks under the bar for purses. The bar is really big and there are booths and high top tables in the bar area, with nice, big bathrooms downstairs. We’ll definitely go back - seems like a good place to watch a game.“

“Cool for breakfast. Great location and atmosphere.“

“Great place, great atmosphere, great bartenders, great tunes. Highly recommend.“

“Drinks are amazing! 10 for 10 no notes!“

“So I had an issue. I needed a last minute spot to have a few friends join me for my Birthday!! Well let me say this "Kulchure Kitchen YOU ROCK"!!! This is such a friendly estabilment.

“Great place for large groups, cool seating options. Pizza and wine nights are great but all food is delicious!“
