    Garlic Parm

    This was the luck of Yelp.. we found this place on the way back to my family's home. It's a nondescript type of place. It's got outdoor seating and awning and they have a clear garage like door they open up. When we went we could smell the sweet scent of bbq! This place makes its own foods.. what was on special was meatloaf with mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts. What bar do you know that makes that? I don't know any. They make their own sauce, they smoke there own stuff. This is a place you can bring your kids, friends and hang out. You can sit at the bar and if you need to charge up your phone they got you covered. They have beers on tap and in bottles and cans and you can buy them to go. They have a good menu and the wings are very tasty. We got a few different sauces we got garlic parm, fire (it's more savory than hot) and a Carolina type of sauce. You can get either ranch or blue cheese for dipping These are all worth getting and we also got mozzarella sticks. They were very tasty too. They have tv's you can just sit around and relax. The staff is really nice and rather helpful to steer you if you are unsure about what to order. If you have a chance check this place out it was really a nice surprise. Street parking.

    Drinks were great , food was good. And plenty of TVs because we came to watch golf and basketball. Did order a slice of pizza and it took over 35 minutes but we had to leave so never got it

    Huge Cod Sandwich!

    What a great neighborhood bar, with excellent bar, food, great beer selection, and great atmosphere and ambience. Even on a busy Friday night, great service from the bar staff. Real neighborhood gem.

    We came to Bulldog Pub while in the area visiting. Their menu online was different than their menu in person, so we were a little disappointed to not see some of what we came for. We ate outside on their back patio, which was perfect for our young kids to run around a little. Staff was very attentive and helpful for us. Pub looked like a local place that everyone goes to watch soccer games and had a very local vibe. I ordered the fish sandwich, which was huge and tasty. We also enjoyed the pretzel sticks with honey mustard and my husband loved the nachos. I'd recommend checking it out

    Excellent local Pittsburgh bar. Very friendly crowd, majority of patrons drinking Iron City or IC Light. Fish sandwich was good and big.

    Buffalo Chicken Dip

    Was in the area for my kids ice hockey tournament and I just love local 'dive' bars. So I went searching and came across this place. Well, we scored with this one! Definitely a local neighborhood bar. Bare bones menu which makes ordering easy. The buffalo chicken dip rocks! My first time having an IC Light (an awesome local beer) overall, no frills, friendly staff and good bar food.

    Really, really liked Bulldog Pub. One of my resolutions was to stop going to the same part of town for food! Mission accomplished. As soon as we parked outside of BP (street parking) I immediately thought this place looked like a good time! The booths are old school, and the decor is really neat because it's a bunch of old local football pictures. Nothing fancy here! Also, the bathroom was a tiny little room, with one toilet. Again, nothing fancy! Our server was awesome, very attentive - always made sure we had drinks. He also hooked us up on the food and drinks. My new life consists of not only being a picky eater myself, but having two pre-teens to worry about as well. We all loved it! We had a little bit of everything. I had the salmon burger, which was quite good. The boys had some penne with butter (it's the simple things) which they loved - oh and some chicken wings, which were a hit. My boyfriend had a burger, and said it was good as well! The prices were average. And the food was "not just bar food" which is great. They had bar food, but it was "good bar food" I would definitely recommend, and would come back if we were in the neighborhood! *No smoking inside of this bar* *Kids welcomed, no issues there*

    BEST PITTSBURGH WING…read more We were absolutely not expecting this and still can't believe it. We didn't have major expectations but hoped it would be at least a top 5 wing and average meal. It was beyond that The French onion soup we saw online and everyone seemed to enjoy that. We're whores for it so had to get. I like mine a tad bit salty which this was and PACKED with onion chunks and breaded leeks on top. It was impossible to get a spoon fully without any inclusions. My new favorite The Tavern Burger. I'm coming fresh off 9 years without 5 Guys (elite) and this rocked me harder than that. This isn't a stupid smash burger. We got a juicy COOKED PERFECT RARE 8oz patty, topped with sautéed onions, and bacon that isn't crisped to smithereens. I like my bacon medium rare and that's exactly what I got. Then covered in one of the craziest sauces I have ever had, their gorgonzola cream. I could drink that by the gallon The wings.... I have never had a wing itself cooked more perfect in my life. The smoke and meatiness on them was so nailed that I could get 2 dozen plain and still have the same reaction. We got the Buffalo Garlic and Dry Cajun Ranch. These wings don't need drenched in sauce by any means or it would honestly ruin it. The buffalo doesn't ned to be creamy either. Perfect amount of sauce to cheese ration. The dry cajun ranch was a fucking knockout. For how great the wing is I would love to see more dry season options with them Cam got a Tavern Dip. I hate dips. I loved the shaved ribeye on it and horseradish, but I have never been an Au Jus man. Would 100000% eat it without the au jus Then the fries. Always team psoriasis through and through. Not sure if I'm coming off the Five Guys high but their cajun boardwalk style are even better. Get some spicy honey aioli to dip them in. Truly just shocked at how amazing this place is. Right over the bridge and cannot recommend enough going here before a game and walking over. Great spot right before, after and during sports. Very high Pittsburgh atmosphere going on I will be back so many times and absolutely worth going Downtown for

We showed up for a Saturday lunch ahead of a snow storm, and the overall experience was good. The staff were friendly. There were clearly some number of regulars around. The space is a bit old and drafty, but that just adds a level of character. In terms of the food, we ordered a few salads and a half reuben (part of the lunch special), plus an Italian flatbread. Nothing was exceptional, but everything was nicely prepared and presented. The vegetables in the salad were fresh and crisp. The flatbread was good but not particularly noteworthy. My partner liked the rueben, but thought it could use a little more sauerkraut. The Guinness was fresh and nicely poured. All told, this was a good experience. Understand that this is more of a neighborhood hang than a destination, but it excels at filling that role.

Unfortunately that's were the good ends. First and always foremost, how was the food? An absolutely mess. Impossible to enjoy bc the sandwich falls apart immediately, simply can not pick up without losing everything inside, and greasy as all get out. I should have expected this to an extent, but a nearly $20 grilled cheese at a place that "specializes" in them, I would hope could do better than this. Service was very, very slow despite many open seats. The part that probably sent it over the top was the plate runner constantly spilling the tomato soups everytime they brought out someone's meal. Mine dripped all of the ground as he sat it down, my wife's got on her tray so the bread was just mushy on the bottom, and we saw it constantly as he walked by delivering others. Cool idea, cool location, but the rest was just bad.

    LOVED our dinner at this place…read more We came here for dinner while visiting Pittsburgh. The first thing that struck me was the interior decor. Very industrial and moody with an open kitchen/preparation area that adds some intrigue. I do like to see the happenings of what's going on as someone with zero attention span. Service was excellent. George was fantastic. He kept a close eye on us without being overbearing. He anticipated what we might need so we didn't spend one second waiting to order anything. The menu is not endless or overwhelming which, presumably, allows them to focus on the items that are listed. I have decision panic so it was kinda nice to have less things to choose from. They asked if there were any allergies or dietary restrictions so I mentioned my vegetarianism. George went through the menu and pointed out the vegetarian options including what seems like it is vegetarian but isn't. They had TWO vegetarian entree options and fortunately the non-mushroom one was something I probably would have ordered anyway: pesto with walnuts, arugula, and a very generous amount of grated cheese. To start, I ordered the Brussels sprouts whichc I was warned had fish sauce. This was fine but nothing that blew me away. GF, on the other hand, loved this. GF ordered the wedge which was brought to our attention as vegetarian with the bacon on the side, which was her request. We ended up sharing both, a large part of that was because hers came out first and I couldn't wait but I'm so glad because the wege was FANTASTIC. The dressing? holy fuck pure ecastasy. The wedge was more like a filet shape which was much easier to eat. Who decided on the wedge shape anyway? The lettuce was so fresh and crisp and went wonderfully with that orgasmic dressing and breadcrumbs. Back to my pasta. Also delectable. Noodles were al dente. The sauce was creamy and packed that pesto umami flavor. The walnuts were a really nice contrast in texture. Everything about it absolutely fucking slapped. GF ordered the mushroom entree which came served on a bed of barley which, don't mind if I do, had a few forkfuls to "sample" for "my review". Again, so fucking good. Because it was my birthday, George provided a dessert (yuzu maybe?) that was served inside a meringue-esque igloo, creamy perfect balance of sweet and tart custard with some berry business underneath. Wonderful. I almost forgot their spectacular cocktails! Holy shit, literally they have a CORN CHIP cocktail that I could not pass up. It comes with two massive cornchips on top of a flavored foam. When you bring the glass up to sip, the cornchips are right in front of your nose and their aroma sets the stage for the drink which was STRONG. It wasn't as corn chip forward as I expected but I understand that flavor is probaly hard to create. For my second drink, I ordered the blue one which was refreshing, light, and really good. GF ordered a spritz which was gorgeous "it was good". For second round, I picked out some uranium thing that was very cucumbery, GF says, "it was good". I just read it outloud to her. "it's true!" Fantastic meal at a great place.
