| - My friends and I stopped in before a Pirates game to avoid the crowded bars closer to the stadium. Wow, did we pick a good spot for that. The downstairs had a few bar patrons by the time we left but the rooftop deck was all ours! One other table filled as we left. The rooftop has a full bar, attentive servers & large flat screen TV's. This would be a great spot to catch games this fall!
We started with sangria & spiked lemonade that could be infused with blueberry, cherry or raspberry. The red sangria had a rich orange flavor and it wasn't too sweet. The lemonade was too sweet for me but the bartender made an infused version with less simple syrup & it was much better. In fact, it was dangerous because I couldn't taste the liquor!
For an appetiter, our group ordered italian egg rolls. I can't eat gluten so these were out for me. They looked tasty! Italian meats & cheese rolled up and deep fried in a flour wrap, served with a creamy aioli dip.
Everybody at the table ordered a burger with fries and I got the salmon salad. The burgers were quite large! Toppings were plentiful & the portion of fries for each person could have fed half of our table. Prices for burgers & sandwiches ranged from $9-$15
My salmon salad was good but plain & left me wanting more. It included sliced almonds, port infused cranberries and goat cheese. I ordered it without cheese and asked if they had avocado (they don't :( *sniffle*) I like my salads with a plentiful amount of veggies...cucumbers, onion, tomatoes, carrot, etc. For $14, I expected more.
Our waitress was great! Very accomodating & attentive, our service was fast and efficient.
If you're looking for a low key spot to catch a game with decent food & good drinks, this is it!
