We were with friends enjoying a Sunday Brunch. The Grand Concourse has a reputation for one of the best brunches in Pittsburgh. It's still good, but at nearly $30 each it is also one of the most expensive brunches in town. Don't get me wrong, it's still good with a wide variety of foods. The only thing that was of poor quality were their scrambled eggs and their bagels. They were both hard as a rock.
Most of the other food was mediocre to very good, but none of the items my wife and I sampled were great.
I liked the seafood. The peel and eat shrimp were more trouble than they were worth, but the salmon selections were very good. Some of our party loved their mussels.
Among the deserts the bananas foster was a standout, but my wife really liked the made to order donuts. Table service was great for a buffet. However they didn't do the best job keeping the buffets stocked. The lines at the carving station were often more than 10 deep during our visit.
The atmosphere is incredible and might make it worth the high price, if only occasionally.
