Thursday was a mixed crowd, good music, and you can order food near by and bring it in. Friday evening, came the regulars. Which means those who don't prefer out of towners. So I'm good on Lefty's on Friday night. I need good energy around me always. TV's with the games, upstairs and downstairs seating area. Small patio. If you go, go early, when the old heads are there.

We always like to drink local beers so hubs ordered us those and I found a table in the back. It was a good spot but it was so busy and loud that we could barely hear each other. There were televisions all over so you can watch basically anything you want. They had music playing and it was very lively. I am not sure if they had food or not and I do not recall smelling any. The bathrooms were okay and they were definitely not modern. The lighting was good and there was enough space throughout the place. No one was socializing with us but seemed to be everywhere in Pittsburgh.

Also had the Diablo Pasta I felt my dish was spicy, which I enjoyed til the last bite. My counterpart thought their pasta was spicy and broke out in a sweat. Needless to say we will order both again! Down side. They do not have 'side' dishes. I wanted to try the Mac and cheese but was not interested in a big bowl. You could get away with appetizers and share as a meal.

I have an end of October birthday so I'm a sucker for all things Halloween…read more This place is so much fun. Every square inch is covered theme Halloween/spooky decor. Thankfully nothing is overly gory or too creepy. To avoid a line, it is best to go right at opening or about an hour before it closes. There is a list of fun themed drinks served in quirky glasses that match the theme of the drink (a mummy, for example). I visited three times and tried a different drink each time. One thing is that they can (and often do) search your bag to make sure you don't steal the glassware. Sad that they need to so that, but I guess I understand why they need to check. If you are looking for a quirky, fun experience while downtown, definitely check it out.

I gathered a bunch of friends and we went yesterday to try almost all of their cocktails. The inside looks like Halloween threw up on it and they went all out with their decorations! The presentation of the drinks is on point and they're all very reasonably priced. My favorites were the Killer Pumpkin, which is a pumpkin espresso martini, and the Blood Transfusion that come in a fun blood bag! Be sure to check out this pop up before it goes away! We all paid via card and they were able to charge each person individually for what they got which was lovely because there were 13 of us!!
