| - I went to Bar Marco this past weekend with a few friends and boy did we find a gem in Pittsburgh. This new spot has everything I look for in an ideal restaurant. For starters it is extremely cozy, not in a cramped I can't get to the bar south-side sort of way, instead the owners welcome you to the bar, discuss wine/drink options and make you feel at home. The food is OUTSTANDING! I can't say in all my years of being a very serious carnivore have I been able to find a rib-eye so marvelously seasoned and beautifully cooked. Not to mention, it was enormous. As their menu rotates, I can only hope to catch another one in the near future. The snacks were delicious too, my favorite being the sausage and polenta, with the meatballs as a close second. This is one of those places you should go and enjoy slowly; a little bubbly, a yummy snack, followed by a good glass of wine and maybe an entree to share.
The only downside was it was a little chilly, but then again it was January in Pittsburgh. Simply said, come fully clothed and you will be fine.
I hear there is a patio to come....... Could be the perfect summer's night spot!
