My absolute favorite place to eat in all of the greater Pittsburgh area. Amazing service, kind owner, lovely atmosphere, and wonderful chefs!
It's a very quite place with a mostly older crowd on weekdays until around 7pm when the younger crowd picks up. On weekends, it's a constant mix of all ages.
My suggestions:
- Eggplant Parmesan - so good and a huge portion. Very good for sharing! I substitute the standard spaghetti pasta with fettuccine Alfredo.
- Gorgonzola Apple Walnut salad - amazing, best salad
- Beans and Greens - I don't think it's on the menu anymore, though I could be wrong, but it's amazing
- Citrus Tea - literally the best drink you will ever have
7pm Friday night - first take was from the door, busy atmosphere, lots of servers running around with plates of hot, delicious smelling food. Â we didn't have a reservation and that seems to be quite the SIN, at least to the two hostesses (older one with short hair especially - hope she's not an owner.) Â
regardless of uppy attitude, we were seated almost immediately amongst a mostly 60+ crowd in a large room reminiscent of a diner with tablecloths - very bright/not romantic w little fancy ambiance. Â
yummy stuffed banana peppers (they'll mix mild and hot if you ask) and generous salad portions. Â delicious bourbon pork chops and pistachio pasta dishes! Â free delicious almond cookies at dessert - next time I'll skip the tiramisu though (homemade w lots of mascarpone, but we were too full to enjoy, heh.) Â good coffee! Â
we'll come back, but really drop the attitude, this place is a dressy diner with too expensive, but good, food. Â kudos to EXCELLENT waitress, Heather, who turned our frowns upside down!
