| - Food: Tram's is one of the true hidden gems in Pittsburgh and serves The best Vietnamese food the city has to offer. Fans of Vietnamese food surely know Tram's by now, but those who haven't tried yet need to. The menu offers appetizers, meat, seafood, and vegetarian options. But there's no reason to order anything but the Pho. There are many options, but keep it simple. Pho real. It's unbelievably tasty and filling. One bowl will have you stuffed, but if you have a massive appetite, the spring rolls are also huge and delicious.
Price: One person can gorge themselves with tip included for under $10. The prices here are ridiculous considering the quality and quantity of the food being served. If you're on a budget, this should be a regular stop. It should be regardless.
Drinks: the Thai iced tea is good, all regular drinks are offered, no booze
Atmosphere: If Tram's was to be criticized in any way, surely this would be it. The dining room is almost but not quite dirty, and likely hasn't changed in 10+ years. What some may see as a blemish others may view as character (me). Hey it's Tram's Kitchen, and we're just eating there. Wear a blindfold, you'll still taste the remarkable food. Cash only.
Service: A waiter will be to your table with water before you even hit the seat, and another will be over for your order within 60 seconds. Thats why you just order the pho. There's no wasting time at Tram's. Sit down, order, food comes quick, bill shortly after, eat, go home.
(+): Tram's is a can't miss restaurant in Pittsburgh. The only way to miss it would be driving past it without realizing because its so small and indistinguishable on Penn Ave. The food and price are unbeatable.
(-): Some may be slightly turned off by the atmosphere.
Would I go back again? Routinely.
