Where is the Best Outdoor Bar in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania?
I dined here last night with my boyfriend. Upon arriving we were told there was a wait for the dining room. We could clearly see there were many open seats. The hostess explained that they were understaffed. Ok. We tried to seat ourselves in the pub and jostled with other diners and happy hour-ers for a seat. At this point we decided to forgo entrees and have side salads, pizza, and beer. Although service continued to be spotty, we really enjoyed our pizza (we had the five cheese – and it was somehow not greasy), salads (very fresh), and beer. The building is really neat. I would definitely return but would probably stick to the pizza and more casual stuff – this seems the establishment’s strength.Pros + Pizza!Cons – service
A quaint little mexican restaurant in Pittsburgh? go figure. Set in a beauiful historic home in artsy Shadyside, Fajita grill provides an intimate setting away from the crowds and mainstream Mexican chains. Albeit a bit pricey for Mexican, everything is homemade and fresh. The enchiladas are wonderful and considerably less than other entrees on the menu. They let you choose between 4 or 5 sauces, or mix a couple if you can’t choose just one. The salsa verde (green) is my personal favorite.Bring your favorite wine for a small corking fee, and relax inside or weather-permitting on the patio.Pros + intimate, bring your own wineCons – street parking, expensive for mexican
