| - As a local SouthSider, I'm giving Nadine's five stars for being exactly what it intends to be: a local spot serving up good, solid pub food in a very friendly neighborhood environment.
Living right around the corner, I can't imagine a better spot to chow down on a traditional American breakfast. If you want carving stations and mix-your-own Bloody Mary bars, go elsewhere...but if you crave a real eggs, toast, sides & good coffee spot, accompanied by a real SouthSide atmosphere, walk right in and grab a seat at the bar.
I set the bar high for breakfast, knowing that while it seems so basic and effortless, it's also often a disappointment when eating out. Not so at Nadine's. Stopping in recently, during the Polar freeze, I had one of the best "regular" American breakfasts that I've had in ages. Sunny side eggs done perfectly! Not an easy task, thanks Matt! Paired with perfect toast and a luscious slice of ham...I was happy! My friend's over medium eggs were, again, prepared just right, with a side of what she proclaimed to be "the best bacon " she's ever eaten. Your basic American breakfast..but done so well..a treat indeed! Couple that with the friendly conversation at the bar, and if you're really lucky, a visit with the charming Miss Nadine herself and it's about as perfect a Pittsburgh neighborhood experience as you're likely to find.
If breakfast isn't your thing, don't hesitate to try any of the daily specials being offered...from homemade soups, sandwiches from the grill, and strong favorites like a killer hot roast beef or spaghetti and meatballs, you won't be disappointed. Portions are generous, the prices are right, and you can settle into a conversation about the Steelers or Buccos before you've even settled in your seat...A real gem on the SouthSide.
