| - Me and one of my besties recently came here for a girl's night out on the town. Since we're both parents and don't get out often without our children in tow, we wanted to make sure that we fully enjoy our food and drink wherever we decide to go.
We actually enjoyed ourselves very much, thank you, at this wonderful downtown spot. We both ordered specialty martinis. I had the Pink Lemonade and she had the Dragon Berry Cosmo. Both drinks were delicious! We also ordered Olive or Twist Calamari and the Thai Chicken wings as appetizers. (Yes, I know that's a lot of food for two people. But, didn't I say we don't get out much in the evening without kids in tow?) Yummy is the word for both. I like my wings crispy and my calamari not overdone and both fit the bill.
Now, about my braised beef short ribs. Like some people wouldwalk a mile for a Camel, I would walk 10 miles for beef short ribs. If I can take my fork and push the meat into collapse and have a good sauce to go with, I'm all yours! My last name should now be "OliveOrTwist"! Likewise, my bestie sat in silence and payed homage to the crabcake gods/goddesses that prepared her crabcakes. A moment of slence please....
Okay, I'm back. But seriously, if you want to feel transported from Pittsburgh and imagine yourself in a hip little bar/restaurant in a more trendy city, this is your place.
