I lived near Walnut Street for 2 decades. I moved away to Seattle and was in town visiting. Let me tell you, this exceeded expectations for what "good" dining could be in Pittsburgh. This place is on the higher end for Pittsburgh, maybe about average for New York or Seattle. But the food is on par for what you might expect at a good big city restaurant, and the service was fantastic. I would highly recommend this place if you want a higher-end date that isn't too formal, or if you want a great dinner with a group of old friends you haven't seen for a while and you're trying to convince them to move back to Pittsburgh. ;) We tried the charcuterie (huge, meant for 3-4 people), the Brussels Tartine (AMAZING), Tortana (good), and the main pasta entree. Everything was good or amazing. The beer selection was on point. I was impressed. Would return here the next time.
