As a man I think it's in my blood to love a hamburger. I don't need a fancy dining experience if I can get a juicy burger and some french fries. I will say I did get that, but everything else about this place is meh.
Okay so as many people in Pittsburgh know this place used to be a Fuddruckers and I always enjoyed Fuddruckers. When you walk in you can see it is sort of set up how Fuddruckers was which I felt was lazy on the new owners part. You can see the different types of meat available if you're into that. Me, I want a cow to eat not an ostrich but if you do then that's cool too.
The decor of this place is a mix of aunt's living room and a sports bar. I truly don't get it. I think Fuddruckers gave them their old decorations and then they stopped a Kirkland's that was going out of business to complete the rest of the look. As stated in another review the place has no original feel to it for it not being a chain restaurant.
The salad bar was tiny and actually the only reason I ordered it was because I was bored (says a lot about me right?) Anyway what I thought was weird was once I finished my salad the waitress says, "can I take this or are you going back up?" WHAT?! I've never been somewhere that lets you go back up to a salad bar with a used plate. Isn't that a health code violation? Yuck.
I just felt very underwhelmed there. I think the staff did too. No one really looked to thrilled to be working there. It seemed like they weren't sure about what orders to take where. And one final thing that annoyed me was that they sat everyone so close together. I understand the rules and regulations of sitting people in the world of the restaurant business, but c'mon I don't need to be able to reach other grab a fry off of the person's table next to me.
Also if it tells you anything about the return business I went here months ago with a coupon I received from work I checked into FourSquare both then and today and I am now the mayor there. Really shows you that once you Pittsburgh Burger Company you never go back.
