What's not to love about this little place? I used to frequent the Oakland location when I worked at UPMC Presbyterian, so when they opened a spot just a half block from my apartment, I was thrilled!
Hello Bistro is owned by the Eat 'N Park group, so you'll find similar menu items here - including the delicious, world famous (well, at least in my opinion) SuperBurger.
If you're in the mood for something a little healthier, their salad combinations are endless! One trick I've learned is to ask them to chop up the lettuce before adding any toppings. Since most of the toppings are already diced, they tend to get mushed during the chopping phase - asking them to do that step first creates the perfect salad! There is an additional, nominal upcharge to add protein to your salad, but aside from that, you can add as many toppings as your hungry heart desires! You can easily get out of there for $10 per person, including a beverage. They even offer classic fountain sodas, which is a nice touch! The Southside location has a giant front window that they open in the warmer months for some al fresco dining, so if you can, grab a seat in front of the window for some glorious people watching ;)
