My wife and I eat at mediterranean style restaurants all over the city of Pittsburgh. I think that Cedars takes the cake over most of the other restaurants. It especially excels over the other restaurants in this price range. There is an 'Aladdin Eatery' opening soon across RT19 from Cedars. I believe Cedars serves better and fresher food.
This small restaurant has only been open since November and they are doing a terrific job! The daily buffet is the best deal around. It is less than $7. That is crazy-good compared to anything available in the immediate area. The food is fresh and they keep the buffet full. That is quite an accomplishment for a staff of two. They serve fresh, ethnic food for 1/2 the price of any restaurant in the area! I can only imagine the work that goes into keeping this going.
We had the grape leaves, lamb, delicious rice, and salad. Even thought the buffet is not huge, everything was great and there was a good selection for my wife who is a vegetarian.
Kudos to them and all their hard work!
