| - This was my first time going to Pittsburgh. We were shopping in a downtown store, and this restaurant was recommended by one of the store clerks.
We stopped for a small lunch and a beer. The waitress was extremely nice and helpful, letting us sample some of the local brews on tap before we made a choice. She kept saying how she didn't want us to get stuck with a beer we didn't like. She gave prompt and attentive service, as she was the only one running the bar and the dining area in the bar. It wasn't super crowded, but definitely enough to keep her busy.
Our food was fantastic! I ordered a salmon BLT, and the salmon that came on it was bigger than a piece of salmon that I would order for a dinner in other restaurants. The sweet potato fries were crispy and sweet...some of the best I've ever had. My dish was only $12, and that was because i added the sweet potato fries instead of regular. My husband had their featured pasta with sausage and chicken, and there was TONS of meat. I've never seen such a large amount of meat in a pasta dish anywhere. He loved the pasta and bread that came with it. His dish was roughly $9. I've never had such good food, for such a small price in a downtown city. Out beers were only $4 and $5.25 for a pint of beer.
After our meal, we asked the waitress what we should see in the city. We were only there for one day and wanted a local opinion as to what to see. She sent over the restaurant manager, and he was beyond helpful. Not only did he give suggestions, but he took the time to write them down on a card. He spent a good 10-15 minutes pointing out different spots we should see. We ended up going to all top 5 places he suggested and we ended up having a great day.
Would definitely recommend this place.
