Grandma B's - Halal Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Small location. The one taking the transaction was nice, it was a lot of people and it was only him, so he was busy. They ONLY take cash, I'm not sure if I seen it on their page but could've been shown clearer. The price was nice. The food was just ok. read more

This is what I consider a hidden gem in the Hills! The place is small and a bit dated but the owner is a great guy and makes everyone feel welcome. This is definitely a neighborhood favorite as I observed lots a togo orders being picked up. Everything is cooked to order and smells as good as it tastes. My friend and I ordered the big G breakfast which consisted of French toast, eggs, turkey sausage and grits or potatoes. Everything was delicious and fulfilling. I would definitely recommend coming here for breakfast or early brunch if in the area and I plan on coming back as well. read more

I love this small mom and pop restaurant. Serves a halal menu. The service is decent time for fresh made food and friendly. I really like eating in and getting a good since of community. My problem is I can't stop ordering the wings lmbo. If it's morning I'm going to have wings n pancakes. If it's afternoon I'm getting wings n fries. Smh my mom usually gets breakfast with beef bacon (delish). I noticed allot of ppl gets grits and also steak. So they have a wide array of items on the menu. read more

The food is good but the service is horrible. Me and my friend came in order food and waited for a hour, come to find out he never gave the cook or tick and the on top of that he tell me he run out of beef bacon, it get better I finally get my food and there's no bacon in there.. I wait for a hour for fuck up order and horrible service. I will never come back here. Take your money somewhere else. I'm tell you will be mad read more

Food and service were amazing I will be back!! Oh and the beef bacon is crazy good!!! It's a little crammed but don't let the ambiance fool you!! read more

Food is always fire I haven't had anything from here that wasn't delicious. I love the service, I remember years ago I accidentally placed my food on top of my truck it flew off I came back they got me right I always appreciate the love shown here. Ambiance is a home feeling I love it here read more

To know this little gem is nestled in my neck of the woods brings my heart delight. I had the pleasure of dining in for Saturday morning breakfast with my family. The vibe of Grandma B's is so relaxing & comfortable that you feel like your sitting in your own kitchen reminiscing & kicking back with your own family. You feel welcomed by everyone the moment that you enter. (I must warn you that this is a very busy establishment with that said; the wait time is impeccable for one person to maintain. It's actually fun to watch how he does it, while being engaging in conversation & laughter with the customers) Now let's get into the heart of the review....THE FOOD! Incredible & delicious is an understatement....I can see myself returning frequently to experience the full menu. Everything I had was completely scrumptious. If you want that "down home country breakfast" this is certainly your place. Sidenote: If you're coming with a crowd of more than 5 you may have a wait because the front end can only accommodate around 15 or so comfortably. They also offer take out as an option. Either way you can't go wrong. read more

Great atmosphere and fellowship. The owners are hilarious. My son and I went for breakfast last weekend and enjoyed every second of it. Best pancakes I've ever had and you gotta try the beef bacon- it will change your life. If you don't like the food, your tongue lied. read more

In town from Maryland for a pens game and stopped here the following morning. Great food, great service and some great peeps! Will be back ! read more

This is a hot spot for breakfast and all my friends kept telling me to try it. The hours on Yelp and Google are posted wrong, because when I arrived they said they close at 1:30p on Sundays and 2:30p Monday through Saturday. Although I arrived at closing time, they were nice enough to take our order as the last order of the day, since I drove 30 minutes to get here. This is a cash only spot, so keep that in mind when ordering. Man....I ate this food so fast I did not have a chance to take a picture. The "AL special" gives you a chance to experience a fulfilling breakfast of pancakes, cheese eggs, potatoes, and turkey bacon. I ordered the French Toast. They gave me three pieces which were perfectly cooked throughout and topped with butter and powder sugar. I honestly did not need much syrup, if any. Overall, this is one of the best breakfasts I've had in a while, outside of my own. I will come back, but next time I will call ahead for pick up. read more

Grandma B's - a whiteboard with instructions on it - Halal Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Honestly didn't try the food. Walked in a whole hour before closing and they refused to serve me and my boyfriend who were going around town trying out new spots since he just moved here. It was a group of older men hanging around the front staring at us like we were lost? I was so confused and taken aback by the attitude. Giant waft of chemicals hit my face going in yet still looked dirty. Sign was dangling off the front window in a sad way. Not sure where grandma B was but I'm sure her cooking is great. With the lack of professionalism in there I'm not sure I'll ever be curious enough to come back after that experience. Best of luck y'all. read more

When my daughter and i were visiting Pittsburgh, this had a good rating so we decided to come here for breakfast before checking out Pittsburgh. It was a "hole in the wall"- no offense implied. (some of the best restaurants i have been to are holes in the wall) it is a small establishment with a row of little tables on one wall and then a counter in the middle with the cook top on the other side. The counter had a group of men who i figured were regulars or at least from the neighborhood. we ordered simple breakfasts. Everyone was friendly, got to talking with all the guys. lots of questions when they heard we were from Idaho. Gave us good recommendations to see in pittsburgh. When our breakfasts came the cook had added fried potatoes to our orders (giving a nod to Idaho?). Anyway the food was delicious, the atmosphere was down home. The people were friendly. Highly recommended. The only thing? No Grandma! read more

Wonderful breakfast spot. Maybe you saw it featured on Anthony Boudain's Parts Unknown? A real community place where everyone is friendly and the portions are generous. It's a small room where the kitchen is front and center. Although the sign says "Don't distract the chef," the chef was jumping in on conversation and greeting customers. Everything we tried was delicious. There are some unusual dishes, such as Fish, Grits and Eggs with Cheese. A unique place and lots of fun. read more

I stopped by while visiting Pittsburgh and ordered the Philly cheesesteak, and I would definitely go back for it. It's hard to find good halal places like this. While the man was making my food he offered to throw in some fries, just so I can try them since he said they were really good. I said no, only because I wasn't that hungry, and didn't want them going to waste. Next time I'm in town I'll try them for sure. The place is definitely a hole in the wall, and sort of a bad location, in the middle of nowhere, on a pretty empty block. It looks like one of the old school burger joints; big bar counter and a few tables. The brothers who worked there were super pleasant and made me feel comfortable in a room full of dudes. They do close for Jummah on Fridays, around noon, so make sure you call ahead if you plan on going around that time. read more

Grandma B's - Philly cheesesteak - Halal Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

This is a great place for breakfast, one you should visit. The staff is super friendly and the food is rock-solid, overall a very enjoyable time. We arrived a little after 9:30 AM so it was not too crowded. Everyone was very friendly who came by for either takeout or eating in. I got the platter that comes with a little bit of everything French toast (was VERY good), grits (the ol' fashioned kind), kielbasa ( a little spicy but very good), and eggs. CASH only and I did not see an ATM, so be prepared for that. Prices were reasonable. All is all a great place to have breakfast. read more

Great small owned business to support. The guys are super cool and the food is delicious. I have been there twice for breakfast. First time I got the Big Al's special with hot cakes, turkey bacon, eggs and potatoes. The young man who was working encouraged me to get the tea and it was bomb . Second time I got the French toast plus meats (with sausage and bacon). The French toasts were my favorite of the two visits. I also got 2 teas the second time cause that was too good I needed more for later. They are popular so it does take 20-30min for your order so order ahead and know that it's cash only. Highly recommend if you are looking for a good breakfast spot in Pittsburgh. read more

The food is delicious. We went in with no cash, so had to leave and come back. It was empty when we returned, but got busy with takeout orders right before closing. Carried on conversations with the cook the whole time we were there. Super friendly! The sign said don't distract the cook but he kept everything straight with a full grill and eggs to order while still talking to us. Had the dirty grits with shrimp and peppers, along with a piece of fried fish. Food was some of the most flavorful I've had out in a long time. Fish was lightly battered and moist when i but into it. Will return. read more

Grandma B's is a pretty small restaurant, but a lot of people either come alone or with a friend/significant other. They also have a couple larger tables toward the back of the restaurant that seat around 4 people each. My boyfriend and I shared a Philly cheesesteak with fries and a breakfast plate with pancakes, sausage, potatoes, and an egg. Their Philly cheesesteak by default came with a few toppings that aren't normally on a Philly cheesesteak (lettuce, tomatoes, mayo). I personally thought this made the cheesesteak better, but my boyfriend didn't agree and took them off. Fries were delicious. The sausage on the breakfast plate seemed overcooked and the egg was definitely overfried. The pancakes and potatoes were fine. Although I wish our food came out faster (took about 25 minutes total), the kindness of the owners made up for it.

I had a taste for some grits and not many places up here serve grits, so I decided to go to Grandma B's today. As usual it was packed (which is a good sign for a eatery) but the flow was smooth. I dined in today because I didn't want my grits to be cold by the time I made it home. I ordered French Toast, eggs, grits, with sausage and orange juice. My food came out in a timely manner, it was nice and hot just the way I like it. Everything was good. This establishment is CASH ONLY and parking is available along the street. So depending on what time of day you go parking may be a little challenging but worth it read more

Walked here from a professional development class. Very small place. The staff was super friendly and the food was bangin'! Got Al's breakfast special, colleague got the loaded chicken fries. Everything was delicious and the sweet tea was homemade. As the sign says, if you didn't like your food, your tastebuds are lying. read more

Amazing food, fresh food. great service, chef is friendly and kind and they make the food right in front of you- fast- 10/10. I recommend you make a stop here if you're stopping through Pittsburg in the AM. read more

The food was great, but the service was even better! We had the Philly and a cheeseburger. Cash only and they close early afternoon. Everyone who came in ordered the French toast so I would try that if I were in the area again. read more

Was visiting U of Pitt and read about this place. So glad we came to eat breakfast here. Got a basic slam dish but it was the best pancakes (and especially home fries) I've ever had. Took a bit of time to get served but that was because they were slammed with takeout orders. Not a lot of space to eat inside. read more

Written on the wall behind the Grandma B's counter: "If you don't like the food, your stomach's lying." My stomach told the truth about the Dirty Grits and Home fries I ordered. As well as the sample piece of French Toast, which was probably the tastiest I've ever eaten. Dirty grits contain--you guessed it--grits, plus peppers, onions, cheese and shrimp. Very good and very filling. Didn't stop me from plowing through the home fries. And then, we'll, there was that French toast. I overheard several patrons ordering breakfast sandwiches, and since Grandma B's is a neighborhood joint with regulars, I'm going to presume that those are a safe bet....so think I'll try one on my next visit. Speaking of which: on my next visit I will bring cash, because it's required. Not only do they not accept American Express, they don't accept any form of payment other than green pictures of dead presidents...or founding fathers, in the case of a Benjamin Franklin. read more

Super small slice of a shop, that is halal and cash only. Pepsi products. Seating at both bar and along wall. Staff friendly and welcoming. Shrimp and grits came w onions peppers cheese and tomato. Next time we'll order extra toppings and shrimp. The shrimp were teeny but I'm used to gulf shrimp, so I wasn't expecting that size. The grits were the fluffiest we've eaten! Really tasty. read more

First off this is a cash only and second its worth every penny In the time of the current plague we wanted good hearty breakfast ... social media (ig) led us to Grandmas its a small place that in the days before the plague would have had some counter seating you can call and order or you can walk in an order super friendly service warmly greeted we ordered French toast cheesy eggs And home fry potatoes I did not realize you can call ahead (next time) There is no gathering in the place (thank you) and mask wearing is strictly enforced the guy at the grill must have eyes in back of his head one didn't even make across the threshold and he said "NO MASK" I appreciate that, as I work in a place where people do not socially distant. The friendly gentleman at the register must listen to the news because he said over 140k (this was a few weeks ago) lost to this. Grandmas is my new favorite breakfast in all of Pittsburgh People that actually care. Food that is amazing good my French toast sandwich was so good menu has so much good food ps check out their ig for the daily videos of tasty food parking on the street and people eating in their cars which we did because we were so hungry. read more

Wonderful service, great food. Visiting from indiana and I'm glad I made a great choice.

Loved the food. Was a last minute choice, but was the best choice yet! Very happy with the taste of the food!

I went here off of a roommate recommendation, and absolutely loved it. When I arrived ten minutes before opening, the door was already open, ready to save customers. As I looked for bike parking, a kind elder across the street offered to watch it. The cook was friendly and steadily enforced the mask policy to make everyone safe. Also the food was great for the price! Go here for good food, great service. read more
