I went there for happy hour with some friends and the service was awesome and everyone was super nice. We got an appetizer to snack on and it was really good! But I gave a lower score because their happy hour sign says martinis and I specifically came to get one but when I asked her which were on happy hour she said they got rid of those. I was confused on why they just don't change their sign and was very disappointed about it.
Review Source:The only reason it's getting two stars is because the kids had fun playing in the arcade otherwise no stars would be given. The service started out great. We were the only diners that day. We were a large party of ten. Two families. When we asked for two separate checks the waitress rolled her eyes and and gave "the sigh". The food was average. I ordered a medium well burger and it came medium rare.  I ate it. My friends daughter had chicken tenders that were more like burnt rocks. I cant believe they were let out of the kitchen let alone served.  This we did complain about and Chrissy,our waitress, didn't want to take care of it and after some push finally decided to have it remade. But since the child had eaten some of the fries from the first order she wasn't given any on the remake.  The second order was slightly less than burned but more edible. The waitress loomed over our table clearing dishes as soon as she felt we should be done. Now remember this is an arcade setting so the kids got up to play more games the adults were still eating but the waitress thought we should be done and we get the bill. Four people 75.00.  Gratuity had been added to our bill but the waitress failed to inform us.  My friends bill had all these up charges. She was charged twice for pizza toppings,and after pointing it out to the waitress and some hemming and hawing from the waitress, she took off the extra charges still making an 8 inch pizza over 16.00. Serves one adult! We sat at our table for nearly an hour while the kids were playing in the arcade and were completely ignored by our waitress. The waitress did come back to the table but only  to clear some glasses.  Sadly the place was near empty when we got there for lunch and completely empty after we left at 3:30.  There are many better choices out there for fun and games!  won't be returning
Review Source:I have mixed feelings about this place. I was the maid of honor for my friend in June and when it came to the bachelorette party, we were having a hard time finding a place that her little sister (19) would be able to get into. I asked another girl who actually lives in Pittsburgh to scout out some places where we could drink with a younger person in attendance. She came up with this and I think it worked out as well as it could have.
For the positive, the restaurant was decent - absolutely huge portions for the price and a very friendly server. They accommodated our 6 way split checks and having an underage person at the table. The club section looked like it would be fun, but since we had a younger person we left at 10 since she couldn't go in that area. I don't blame them for this - we knew she wouldn't be allowed upstairs, so another girl took the bride clubbing downtown afterwards. I am grateful for this place because I'm not sure we could have gotten away with having that many drinks with a teenager present any other way.
For the negative, bowling was extremely overpriced. $42/hr (not including shoe rental) for one lane seems ridiculous. The game room was also a ripoff. You had to buy cards with an "activation fee" meaning it would be over $100 just for the arcade games by the time we all got our cards loaded. We just skipped it and went straight to bowling after dinner.
I give the restaurant 4 stars and the bowling/arcade 1 star. The upstairs club floor looked like it would have been decent, so I'm giving 3 stars. Surprisingly good restaurant, gotta give them credit for that.
Have eaten at the first floor restaurant 3-times now. Â Each time I have been very happy with the meal. Â I think the prices are reflective of the portion size (and maybe the to-do possibilities post-meal), but very reasonable nonetheless. Â Even the latitude pad thai (lat-thai-tude i believe) was very good - and thai can be a risky proposition at some bar/restaurants.
Games were awesome - but more for adults and kids over 10 than for my pipsqueaks (aged 4 & 5).
Upstairs concert bar is a VERY fun place. Â Saw Radio Tokyo (ROCKS) and they had a very large crowd... we were still able to get good drink service and have decent conversation. Â Thumbs up - can't wait for the movie theater to open!
EPIC FAIL!!!!!
We went here for Our Bi-Weekly date night. It took forever for us to get waited on and our food was OLD, COLD and DISGUSTING. When we complained to management the male foreign manager was very rude and refused to make us new food or give us any other option as they were closing the kitchen which was not explained to us when we placed our order. So needless to say we left hungry and Latitude 40 lost 4 customers that night.
So much to do ... Â This a mixed review of the place.
I will start with the fun factor :-). Â Â This place offers many things to many different people. Â
Downstairs - There is a a restaurant, bar, and bowling. Â Â This reminds me of many of the bowling / clubs I have been to (Lucky Strikes, Tora (where there is bull riding), etc...).
Upstairs - There is more bowling, a bar where there is live music, a movie theater with an incredibly large screen. Â Â Many things to do if you are in to it.
I went to see Uncle Kracker play. Â They are still working out the kinks in my opinion. Â Uncle Kracker played and half the tv's in the bar were still tuned to ESPN and Fox News. Â Â They will quickly turned the tv's to the musician after a request was made. Â Â
The fun factor rates high. Â Â The drink prices are more than what you would expect.
Parking is terrible. Â There are signs asking you not to park in the shopping center lot. Â
Food
The food is not very good. Â Â I have had their version of big bang shrimp (shrimp with a tempura batter, deep fried), seared ahi tuna, and nachos. Â Â Shrimp and ahi tuna will only be ordered again after providing the wait staff special instructions (cook / sear). Â The nachos are really bad. Â Thin chips with movie quality cheese sauce (They are cheap).
I will go back if I am with a group for drinks (decent beer selection) and live music. Â I will not dine there - they should remove the restaurant and put in another bar / feature live acoustic acts.
Summary:
Fun Events: Â Good / Fun. Â
Prices: Pre-made Long Islands were $9 per... pretty expensive  Beers run $5-7.
Food: Â Bad. Â Order at your own risk.
Service: Â Good until they get busy. Â The staff when I have been there have been overwhelmed or disorganized.
Parking: Â Terrible
Overall - I give it a below fair rating hoping they will improve.
Looks way cooler than it is.
They spent a lot on a pretty menu that only lists the brewery not the beer. When I asked what was on tap by _____ the waiter said an IPA everytime. He didn't know anything about the great beers they have on tap and admitted he was a coors light guy.
The menu wasn't appetizing. I couldn't find a decent meal for an average price. *I was with the boss so high priced stuff was out. I got meat loaf for the hell of it. The side choices sucked. So said just potatoes, the waiter offered double potatoes so I why not. I got a moutain of potatoes, some reheated meatloaf, and barely any gravey. My dog loved me for the left overs.
It looked cool enough to drink beer and watch a game but at a price.
I had high expectations for Latitude 40 when it first opened, but I was very let down upon my first visit.
A group of friends and I went to watch a Penguin game on a Saturday afternoon. The atmosphere was fun for a game, the drink special was decent ($2 Miller Lite drafts), our waitress was friendly, but the food was terrible and overpriced.
We ordered Nachos, the appetizer sampler platter, and chicken fingers. The nachos were nothing special-- chips, cheese, jalapenos, sour cream, and scallions. The appetizer platter had buffalo chicken dip, onion rings, and 10 wings-- not worth the $20. The chicken fingers were the best thing we ordered, but really how can you mess up frozen chicken fingers?! Our food took over an hour from the time we ordered.
I created a Yelp account solely to write this review.......
-Waited 25+ minutes for a waitress to take our order
-Service was absolutely terrible--group of wait-staff stood around talking while we waited to order
-Waitresses were rude and unprofessional/inexperienced--dropped glasses/trays/plates 3 different times causing a huge commotion
-Food was overpriced and not good--cheese wasn't even melted on nachos
-VERY loud, couldn't hold a conversation with people 3 feet in front of me at my table
-Bartender had a bloody finger and continued to serve people with a napkin wrapped around her hand as a bandaid. Â Disgusting. Â
All in all, I was completely disappointed in Latitude 40 and wouldn't suggest it to anyone. Â If the terrible service and management continues as it was the other night, this place will be out of business in a matter of months.
This is what happens when Chuckie Cheese, Dave & Buster and BW3s  have a three way and give birth.  Atmosphere is LOUD!  Must know sign language to communicate.  The physical plant is huge and over two levels.  60k sqaure feet include a bowling alley, movie theatre, video games, bubble wall and disco. Â
Decent tap selection with a handful of micros and select beers including DogfishHead 60 minute IPA, Chmay Triple and Southern Tier. Â Bartenders are talented, especially this young man named Andy. Â
We were there with a group of 10. Food is mostly bar regular fare with a couple of unique items with mostly nice presentation. Â Our server was attentive and our drinks stayed full. Â This was their first week of operation and the kitchen was in chaos. Â It took about an hour for our food to come out with a very small crowd in the house. Â I had buffalo wings. Â Sauce was thin and uninspired. One of our group ordered the fried fish, coming out frozen in the middle. Â The dinner was comped. Â Â My wife had grilled chicken breast and sweet potato fries. Â It was fair with decent portion size. Friends had the chicken flatbread and it looked very good.
Overall, I found prices to be on the high side for a sports bar menu and atmosphere. Â I will give them another try once the kitchen is in order, but need to find a quieter space.
Unfinished and unenthused!
My Husband and I went on 11/16 for date-night (sans our 2 children), and it was awful: too much unused space; entirely too expensive ($46.00 for 1-hour of bowling after 5:00 pm on the weekends); too many children (curfew is 11:00 pm); typical bar; and the food menu was similar to that of an Applebee's.
To top-it off, the place wasn't finished: the Theater wasn't open; there were roped-off corridors that weren't painted; the "night-life" area was closed, because the lighting wasn't done.
We will default to Dave and Busters for a guaranteed good-time!
I had the worst service that I have ever had in my life at Latitude 40 last night. My friend and I sat at a table in the bar section. We waited at least fifteen minutes before anyone waited on us. After our waitress finally came over, we each ordered a drink and a few appetizers. It took quite a while to get our drinks, and after we finished them our waitress automatically brought us two new drinks without asking us if we wanted them, which we did not. After we told her that we weren't planning on ordering another round of drinks, she took them away, and then we waited at least another twenty minutes to get our food. Our waitress forgot to bring silverware with her, and so we waited fifteen minutes to eat, before she brought us some back. Our food was cold by then and was average at best. After we ate we asked for our check, which took another twenty minutes. When she finally brought it, she had charged us full price for the appetizers, which were supposed to be half off, and she charged us for the second round of drinks that we never even drank! The bill was twice what it should have been! We told her about the mistakes and she said that she would have the manger fix the bill. She finally brought it back after another long wait, and it was wrong again! I finally asked to speak to the manager to complain about our horrible service. He came over, apologized and kept saying that "he would make things right." He brought us back our bill with the mistakes fixed, but no additional discount of any kind. Instead he offered us an hour of free bowling and told us we could bring some girls with us if we wanted. We declined his offer and he said that if we came and saw him before Monday (this was Friday) that he "would make things right." Whatever that was supposed to mean. Why would we want to stay there any longer, or come back that weekend, after receiving such horrible service? I don't plan on ever returning to Latitude 40. If you want horrible service and management, then Latitude 40 is your place. If not, then I suggest that you stay away at all costs.
Review Source:Describe this place in two words? Â SUPER FUN!!!!!
I have been to the one in Jacksonville so I had to check out the Pittsburgh location at the grand opening. Â There is so much to do - you can bowl (fun, fun, fun, date night), you can play games, or you can just sit back with some good food and drinks and watch the game. Â
This is a very unique place. Â I'm already planning a girls night out here for a friend's birthday. Â So glad to see a progressive NYC / Vegas style (Have you been to Lucky Strikes) venue open in Pittsburgh!
