The good.
The hostess had me seated pretty quickly despite the place being crowded and our waiter was very attentive. Good job. Nice atmosphere and decor. The light and sunny "beertail" was pretty tasty and would recommend it if you like wheat beers.
The bad.
Sadly BRGR's biggest failure was what it has centered its name and menu on. Both my date and myself ordered a "Fire in the Hole" burger. Despite coming with jalapenos (jarred), chipotle mayo and sriracha, it didn't even register on the heat scale with me or my date. We both just found it to be kinda bland.
The burger itself was also tiny for what I would have imagined from a place called BRGR. The beef patty was probably only 4 ounces or so, which I'm sorry, but for a $9 burger that doesn't even include fries (Yes you read that right, french fries are $4 extra). The only positive thing to say about the burger was that it was correctly cooked as ordered.
I will gladly pay for small portions of good food, or even big portions of okay food, but they fail to deliver either. There are several places in Pittsburgh which can offer both a tastier and bigger burger, for cheaper (Fat Head's, Burgatory come to mind).
