| - My wife and I went in around 9:45 pm on Friday night, only to find that it was going to be at least an hour before we got a table. We were a bit too tired to wait that long, so we came back the next night around 6. After about a 70 minute wait at the bar (at which we luckily got seats right away), we were sat. Our server, Seena, was very helpful as it was our first time there. The menu was full of some great sounding burgers, but we both decided to build our own using their cool little checklist system. I went with the wagyu beef, crusted in peppercorns, with spicy ketchup, red onion, and dill served on the standard brioche. I wanted to keep it pretty simple for my first time. I also upgraded to the fries. Glad I did, they were fresh cut, and fried perfectly.
The burger was great, although I think I accidentally ordered it well done. Definitely order it medium or rare. Even so, it was still pretty juicy. The bun was soft but stable. It didn't break or mush up under the pressure. I washed it all down with a chocolate shake. Possibly one of the best shakes I've had, although there was a bit too much whipped cream.
Over all, it was a pretty great burger and dining experience. The service at the bar was so-so, but that's Pittsburgh for you.
