Pamela's has moved from its old Squirrel Hill location on Forbes next to the library, and is right around the corner on Murray, in the former Panera Bread space.
Even though they have put in a lot of tables in this new location, the dining area feels a lot less cramped than the old space. If you're lucky, you might even be able to snag one of the patio tables overlooking Murray.
The food and service is more or less the same as the old location. Get the strawberry hotcakes. Even though I feel sleepy after polishing them off, those thin crispy pancakes rolled up with strawberries and brown sugar are totally worth it. The servers aren't the friendliest, but they're very efficient and will have your order out in very little time--which means you can be savoring strawberry hotcakes all the sooner.
Oh, and keep an eye out on the storefront next door--Pamela's owners are turning it into a Latin American eatery. I wish I weren't moving from this neighborhood and from Pittsburgh so soon!
