I love this place. While fad restaurants come and go, Mallorca has been a staple of Pittsburgh Dining as long as I have been alive. While their wine menu is perhaps a bit to heavily influenced by some of their more famous patrons, it is very good. Only fools who like to drink grapes grown from vines grafted onto Missouri vines will need to first gripe about the lack of french wine on the list, but then you can educate them on the fact that there are no 'old growth' french vines due to a little thing called blackrot.
THE FOOD!!!!!!!!! Here is where true Spanish cooking excels! Expect to taste the flavor of the meat and vegetables; not a wealth of spices like a poorly trained Chef would. I personally recommend the Mariscada Aijillo or any of the Mariscada really! The Veal is also always a please, but I prefer my food to be crawling in the ocean a day or two before I eat it.
I have taken many people here and recommended it to many friends. I have only heard one bad report from all of those individuals and the complainer happens to be someone who lives on Wendy's so I take her complaints with a grain of salt.
GREAT PLACE! Thank you for squeezing me in with short notice this weekend!
