| - Prior to coming to Pittsburgh for a three-week stay, I asked my friends and acquaintances what things I needed to do while I was here, and one of them enthusiastically recommended Primanti Bros.
I'm actually not a big sandwich person, so I wasn't expecting to eat at one of these but when I stumbled across the Market Square location, poked my head through the door, and saw a black bean burger on the menu, I quickly found myself a table on the patio. (The music--popular alternative from the past few years--was also a big draw.)
If this happens to be the first review of this place that you're reading, you should know that they put french fries, coleslaw, and (I think) tomatoes on all of this sandwiches. Yes, you read that right--french fries ON the sandwich. I'm not a coleslaw or tomato person, so I ordered my burger with fries only. (I wanted to add lettuce, but they don't have lettuce.)
Absolutely delicious! Both the burger and the fries were wonderful together and individually.
I might just have to go again one more time before I leave PGH, but I might try a different location. I'm not a fan of the fact that the Market Square location only uses disposable cups, etc., because I don't like unnecessary waste. I did, however, peruse through the #primantibros hashtag on Instagram and saw a picture that had a reusable cup in it, so it seems as though not all locations have the same setup.
Last but not least, the wait staff was very quick and friendly.
