| - For my Twenty-Ten Birthday celebration I was in search of a place that combined my favorite things... Beer, Tasty Food, and Music. What I found was James Street Gastropub & Speakeasy, or as I call it "My Favorite Pittsburgh Discovery."
I've been to James St. many times, but haven't written a review because I have never been able to express how much I love this place. From the old jazz albums used as menu covers to the HUGE beer selection... This is my happy place.
On my first visit I selected the Meatloaf, smashed redskins, warm corn fritter, sweet creamed corn sauce. I never tasted a meatloaf so good. Incredibly filling but SO good. Better than Mom's.
Since then I've tried the Singin the Bleu's Burger, Twisted Chicken, Oyster Po Boy, and several other items. I've never left dissatisfied or hungry.
Also they have an excellent cocktails list! For my party, a friend bought the PB&J Martini for me. I didn't know what to expect but it was surprisingly tasty!
If you're a live music fan, check out the Speakeasy. It has live bands all the time to go with your food and drink. I love just sipping my beer and listening to local jazz.
James Street combines everything I love and I look forward to going back every chance I get.
