This place is a great addition to the Pittsburgh restaurant scene. It's been on my list for quite awhile and I finally got there on my recent visit to the burgh. A friend and I risked it without reservations and met at 6, we were lucky and easily snagged 2 seats at the bar. This place is small - it took me awhile to realize that the mirrors on the walls around the place were just that - mirrors and that the place wasn't huge.
I started with the Old Fashion and she went with the Brandy Buck. Both drinks were delicious. We both had a hard time trying to decide what to order because everything sounded great. Finally, I was sucked in by the brussel sprout kim chi on the Koren Ruben - and boy, I'm glad I was. This was hands down one of the best sandwiches I've ever eaten. First of all, it was gigantic - I swear the sandwich weighed about 3 pounds. Thick pieces of some sort of bread - it was hard to tell with all the goodness sandwiched between the bread. A big pile of delicious corned beef, swiss cheese and then that brussel sprout kim chi. I think I could eat that stuff by the bowl. Not only was the sandwich massive, but it was accompanied by a huge bowl of pretty good fries. And it also had some sort of delicious sauce on the side - I think it was supposed to be thousand island, but it tasted suspiciously like the sriracha tzatziki that came with one of the daily specials. I didn't really care, it too was awesome.
My friend opted for dessert while I went for another drink. Her lemon passionfruit cheesecake was amazing. My wine was pretty good too. The service was great and the food was amazing. This place has earned itself a stop on my regular rotation. Yum!
