The Pleasure Bar has been in Pittsburgh forever. My dad wanted to come here one day because he remembered coming here years ago, and we have returned a few times since.
I could not believe the prices on the menu the first trip. This place is CHEAP. We started out with the bruschetta, which was ok. Not my favorite, but I think it was four huge slices of bread and covered in garlic and tomatoes. It was a bit greasy for my tastes but still yummy. Then, we split the stuffed shells ($8.50) and gnocchi ($9). Both were fantastic, I'm guessing homemade. Other trips we have tried manicotti, deep-fried zucchini, and all sorts of other things. The portions are a good size, and you might even have a very small portion of leftovers.
The service is slow considering we are often the only people on a Saturday at lunch time, but who cares? We are there to talk and hang out. This place is great, and I'll come back soon.
