Da Dirty Bird
Ariel N.

So happy we found this place, We were staying in an Airbnb a couple streets over. We went the first day we and loved it, had the smoked wings and old bay chicken sandwich. The staff were so helpful and friendly. My boyfriend loved it so much we ended going back before the flight, that's when we tried da dirty bird.. shown in the picture. It was so good, 10/10. The place is clean, staff is welcoming, would highly recommend this to anyone in the area!

The Jerk over Mac
Thomas S.

Pretty good portions. 1 order of the classics can easily serve 2-3. We ordered the jerk over mac and the oink over fries for pickup. Arrived and found parking on the street (if your familiar with NorthSide you know how parking is) and saw they had a selection of tea, I grabbed the FB Tea which is a sweet tea with fresh lemon. It was very refreshing, but unfortunately, for the pregnant ladies out there, it is not pasteurized. Food was hot and ready when we arrived as well! Staff were friendly!! I will say they should have a spice scale, cause the Jerk was pretty up there. We were not ready for that level of spicy lol. The oink was really good. I heard the cheese sauce was really good so we ordered two. It wasn't bad, but nothing we found ourselves wanting two of like Canes sauce or something. Definitely a place worth returning to, though, well skip the jerk next time lol

The Oink with Mac & Cheese and Lemonade
Courtney T.

Fry Bar was everything I didn't know I needed! The hospitality of the owners; the cozy vibe of the restaurant, the outstanding freshly made drinks, & the explosion of flavors that erupt in your mouth; are just a few things that will keep you coming back. I tried The Oink with Mac & Cheese with a side of lemonade to wash it all down. I sat in awe as I savored every single bite. You literally could taste every flavor individually & collectively it equals divine! I'm sure I'll be a regular at the Fry Bar as there are so many more menu items I have to explore! Thank you Fry Bar for such a delightful visit! See you soon!!

burger had a really unique seasoning and great flavor. House sauce was fabulous and would be good on anything. Loved the toasted bun!
Nancy C.

What a great new addition to the Northside! We're always looking for great local lunch spots and we found one. The owner is so warm, welcoming and friendly. She explained the menu and checked multiple times to make sure we were ok. Great service! Old Bay homemade chips were really good and I dont even really like potato chips. Mint cucumber drink was amazingly refreshing. My husband loved the jerk chicken fries. They were really hot for me but if you love spicy you'd love them. Super flavorful! Loved the burger! It had a really unique seasoning on it which gave it great flavor. The house sauce was fabulous and would be good on anything. Loved the toasted bun! So many great things on the menu that we want to go back and try. Going to tell others to go check it out.

Wings
Liz G.

If you haven't tried Fry Bar yet, you're seriously missing out. Yes, the fries are awesome, but all of their creations are what really set them apart. Everything is homemade & I mean everything! From cheese sauce for Mac & cheese to in-house smoked meats and wings, this is an absolute gem. It's an unassuming spot in the North Side with very friendly owners and staff. I tried "The Oink" with fries, pulled pork, and homemade BBQ sauce. Absolutely killer!!! The portion is so big they serve it in a pizza box. I also had wings that were some of the best I've ever had. The lemonade and tea is to die for too!

Load 'Em Up fries
Tiffany Y.

Fry Bar is a fast-casual restaurant that serves French fries, macaroni bowls, salads, wings, sandwiches, and non-alcoholic beverages. Please see my attached photos for the menu in February 2025. Fry Bar was on Yelp Pittsburgh's list of Black-owned businesses to try during Black History month. My husband and I ate one lunch here. The exterior of the building looked old, but the interior of the restaurant was nicely remodeled and had tables and chairs for dining in. Takeout and delivery were also available. Two employees promptly and courteously served us. Here are my ratings for what we ate: Load 'Em Up Fries - 4 stars - A medium-sized pizza box was filled with French fries that were topped with bacon and scallions. The serving size was so large that I had leftovers for two later meals at home. I really liked the French fries and the accompanying cups of cheese and sour cream. Pulled-pork Sammy - 4 stars - A fresh bun was filled with pulled pork, habanero BBQ sauce, and some coleslaw. The flavor was not too spicy and tasted very good. FB Mac and Cheez - 4 stars - This macaroni had a good amount of cheese and tasted very good. Sweetie Pie - 4 stars - A flaky pastry crust was filled with seasonal fruit, which I think was apples. Some cinnamon sugar was on the exterior, and on the side was a flavorful dip. FB Tea - 4 stars - I liked the flavor of this sweet tea. The label on the bottle said that the tea was not pasteurized. This meal cost $44 *plus* tax and tip.

Wow. I'm not sure exactly what I was expecting, but for whatever reason the fry theme in the name had me expecting a fast food kind of vibe. I could not have been more wrong. Loaded fries and wings both seem like pretty easy and straightforward kinds of dishes, but you can truly taste the amount of work that goes into the food here. From the fries themselves that are perfectly crispy, to the incredible flavor and texture of the cheese sauce, or the smoky flavor of the wings, I loved every single bite of my meal.

The Oink, minus the cole slaw.
Jonathan A.

Stopped in for lunch on a weekday. I got the Oink, minus the cole slaw and it was ok. If you like spicy, it's very hot. The portions were good though. Would maybe try a different one next time.

This is a smaller establishment-- they offer take out but also have some indoor seating! The menu is larger than you'd think and has a range of selections for any eater. You start with a base (Mac n cheese or fries) then you top it!! I wanted something with some spice so I got the papa loco with a fry base. The service was friendly and helpful when trying to pick my first time-try. It's a quaint spot on Galveston and a short walk from western (and the breweries). It's a perfect spot to grab and go or grab a quick bite. Must try on the north side!

Seating area
Andrew B.

Fries were delicious, seriously some of the best I've had. Reminds me of the kind my grandma would make by hand when I was a child, but better! Not too greasy and nice and crispy on the outside. It's a small seating area but everyone is so kind and it has a comfortable vibe. My only complaint is that after leaving, I smelled so greasy, I had to go home and change!

Gretchen U.

First off the tea and lemonade are great! So glad I went with the combo for both orders. Food was great, nice delicious sandwich! The sauce topped it off with a great taste. The service was excellent too, I came in early and happy to see the amazing extensive menu and seating for at least 20 people, great location too! Thanks again!

Wings were small and somewhat dry, with very little meat. Fries were tasty, expensive for what it is.

I often come here after work because of the great food and staff. Very welcoming and always nice…read moreand friendly. Definitely recommend to anyone visiting or living in the Pittsburgh area.

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

I can't tell you how many times I have been here thru the past 10 years since it is my husband's…read morefavorite restaurant in the 'burgh. I also do really like it! I have had everything on the menu more than once and nothing had ever been disappointing. Therefore, it came as a shock when we learn they are were closing for a while. Knowing how long it took them reopen some of their other restaurants, we are a bit sad. Maybe they will make it a little less dark inside which would be great. Sometimes it is a bit too lick like a club in there. Also perhaps they could add the octopus tacos to Tako Torta ! We visited for one last hoorah last weekend. The octopus wasn't on the menu but after checking with our waitress, they still had a few. We got both this one and then queso! I got chips for the queso since I don't do gluten and then corn tortillas with the tacos. The octopus was well cooked as usual. I had a frozen pain killer which was great. See you soon I hope!

Very small, dimly-lit, Mexican restaurant with delicious food…read more Have a bunch of drinks + taco options. Tacos come in a serving of 2 per order, but they are fairly large so this is enough Their namesake is their octopus taco. I got this, chips & guacamole, + their passionfruit beverage. It was all fantastic Service was unbelievably fast Downsides are that the place's seating is fairly uncomfortable (lots of stools with no backs) and it is pretty loud.

The burger paired with sweet potato fries was a total winner, but I was especially thrilled by how vegetarian and vegan-friendly their menu is.

We…read morelike sitting at the bar and can usually count on a good meal, nice atmosphere, and spot-on service. Unfortunately, this Friday wasn't one of those nights. There were plenty of seats at the bar, so we settled in, ordered a couple of beers, and started with the black bean dip. The dip arrived quickly and hot, but about half the chips were broken bits and crumbs. Great if we were making a taco salad. Less useful for dipping. We tried to get a bartender's attention but couldn't. Our meals arrived over our shoulders: my usual torta with fries and my wife's fried fish tacos. My torta was solid, as always. Her fish, however, wasn't hot and seemed like it had been sitting for a while. Cold slaw and avocado? Expected. The fried fish underneath? That should still be hot. We flagged down the bartender, who put in a replacement order. Appreciated, but it left me eating dinner while my wife sat waiting for hers. That's an awkward dinner date. Shortly before the replacement tacos arrived, the bartender brought complimentary guacamole and salsa, adding, "Hope you don't have any allergies." A nice gesture, although probably a question best asked before dropping off the food. The replacement tacos were great, but by then my wife was over the whole experience. We had planned on another round of beers and ended up calling it a night instead. Kaya has been a reliable spot close to home for us, which made this visit disappointing. Hoping this was an off night, because we'd like our go-to to stay our go-to.
