I tried this place after reading a review of them in the City Paper as a top restaurant in Pittsburgh. This place is perfect; a casual cafe/cozy room, albeit very tiny, but not so small that you are sitting right up on someone. There are no tables right next to each other (hate that awkwardness where you are practically sharing a table with another couple). Lots of cute shops on this street to browse in after lunch or dinner.
The service is great, very professional, attentive, and down to earth. The food taste like it belongs in a 4 or 5 star restaurant, but its served in a cute little cafe. The food could easily be sold for 2 or 3 times the price if it were served in a bigger restaurant. Everything is home made, divine.
Appetizer: try the fresh hummus and pickled veggies, never knew I liked pickled veggies! Best hamburger I've ever had. Everything from fish tacos to steak to pasta. Great salads served with fried onions on top. A nice little bar, good martini selection.
The amazing thing is the price. Most meals around 15$, great value and atmosphere.
