| - Just not good at all.
I dig Primanti's. I dig the tradition, that they are the local food of Pittsburgh (aka my city away from my city), I get that surly is the attitude the wait staff is supposed to have, I totally get it, and as I said I dig it.
I am not sure the people at this location get it however.
Miserable is the only word I would use to describe the staff. There were maybe 10 tables packed waiting for food, and the staff must've thought that meant it was ok to take 45 minutes to make our sandwiches.
In 45 minutes I literally could've gone in the back, made them, brought them out, ate them, and then perhaps got 2nds.
Also when the waitress brought our food out, she was holding the sandwiches in a stack against her shirt, so all our food was getting all over her, and she didn't seem to care. I guess a tray would've been too easy.
It also feels as if this location is more bar than restaurant, which is cool, and also what Carson St is mostly about anyways, so it should fit in. Just don't call it Primanti's then.
And when the OG in the strip has a line around the corner, and I am with a couple of people who haven't had a Primanti's and want to experience it for the 1st time, this is the nearest option, their reactions said it all... "Never again."
And I totally get that as well.
Check the original in the strip, if it is super packed, skip it and save it for another time. This place will ruin it for you.
Plenty of other places in the Burgh to eat and eat well at.
