| - Beware the Pittsburgh Foodie-Bubble!
We wanted to like this place, we really did. And we got off to a good start with their house Copper Ale, which is quite good. The interior theme is also cool, if slightly hackneyed.
Had the wings and they were OK, over cooked somewhat, but otherwise good.
But then came the service. Really annoying, employees more interested in each other than the customers. All too cool to be bothered. And that also goes to the management, which hovered and did their "supervisor"-thing with the employees, but didn't once scan to see how the customers were doing (would have found many empty drink glasses around the bar). It never ceases to amaze me how talented some people can be at walking right past you and not engaging eye contact at all. I won't bore you with the details, because I'm sure you've experienced similar.
Then I went to the restroom to find a large hoard of employees milling in the back, more interested in posing than actually doing anything.
I hope the restaurant scene in Pgh doesn't become too much of a "scene" as evidenced here. Remember restaurant owners and employees, it's not about you, a restaurant is a service business. And your customers Yelp.
