Bocktown is a local favorite.
It's a bottleshop/pub with food that is better than your typical brewpub.
In particular, and why I go here when I'm on that side of town is the She Crab Soup. I became addicted to this soup while attending the Big Pour event in Pittsburgh, where they were featuring their famous soup at their stand. I couldn't get enough and went back the very next day to have another bowl.
This last time around we also had salads, which were a nice healthy pile of greens with some veggies. The house vinaigrette is not bad and the proteins were done right. The beef was pink and the shrimp was tender and grilled without overcooking.
I don't have anything bad to say about Bocktown, indeed, even the service is typically fun and friendly. Perhaps it's the location, or that the food while good hasn't wowed me yet, but I can't give everyone 4 stars, so three it is for now.
Just know, that bowl of soup must be had.
