I have visited multiple hello bistro locations and have always had a pleasant experience. This was a great addition to the south hills! Made to order salads with unlimited toppings! So many things to choose from. I will say the service was a little slow today, but it seemed to be because this is a brand new location and there was a lot of employee training going on. The employees were all so friendly and the restaurant was unbelievably clean. I plan to be a regular now that it's closer to my house! read more

Hello Bistro - Salads by you. Full to the brim! Great deal for your money. - Salad Near Me - Upper Saint Clair, Pennsylvania

Great place for a quick lunch especially if you like chopped salad. Other menu items such as burgers, grilled cheese, fries also available but I think the salad is their main deal. You can customize your entire salad from type of lettuce to protein and tons of topping options. They chopped it in front of you and then enjoy! Large portion size which is always too much for me to finish! If you don't like to customize your own, they have salads on the menu to choose from as well. I usually get salad but I've had the veggie burger as well. I would skip this next time though as it didn't hold any shape and was just mushy. Service is always pretty quick and prices inexpensive. I've seen it get a little backed up when it gets busy around lunch however, and I've seen about a 10 minute wait at the salad chopping station. Indoor and limited outdoor seating. I'll certainly eat here again when I want a good salad. read more

Finally got to try Hello Bistro for lunch! Upon walking in you place your order at the counter and then they give you a number and serve you your food. They have a ton of different salad options, including making your own. I saw probably 50 different toppings you could get on your salad. They have different featured items and I went with the turkey burger that came with pineapple, arugula, and a chipotle mayo. Unfortunately, they were out of the chipotle mayo which was a bummer. If this is a special featured item you are pushing- I'd like to see them have all of the ingredients. However it was still super tasty and fresh so I was too upset. It was cooked perfectly and had a really good flavor! Sometimes turkey burgers can taste strange but this was the perfect texture and size. My husband had French fries with his burger and they were fresh cut and seasoned perfectly! Did I mention they serve Eat N Park ranch dressing, which is the best! The best part was our entire lunch was only $15 and we left stuffed! Such a good deal. I will be back soon to try the featured strawberry chicken salad before it disappears after summer! read more

Found the Thai Peanut Salmon salad fresh and refreshing. At first I thought there weren't many toppings, but as I ate I saw they were towards the bottom of the bowl. Overall I was impressed with the menu. We need more healthy eateries in the South Hills. One disappointment was the to-go dressing cup was small. For spending over $10 on a salad, it stinks to run out before you're done eating. Excited to go back and try a burger. read more

Excellent. Great salads. Quality ingredients. I have been to 2 locations (south hills and Forbes ave) both we're operating smoothly. Service was quick and efficient. The salad ingredients quality was too notch. You get a big salad for around $10. Can't beat that. I'm definitely coming back. read more

Good atmosphere and easy to order. Food was ok, had the salad, nothing too special. The burger and fries were delicious though!! Trendy place, but nothing to rave about. read more

First, from the photos online, I expected the burger to be bigger. I ordered online. My food was supposed to be ready at 6:32. I was a bit early and waited by the area where they put out people's orders. At 6:41 I went to the counter to ask after it and was handed my burger and drink. When I got it home, the burger looked and tasted as if it had been sitting in the back for those 9 minutes. Never eating there again, read more

The meat is completely lab grown. DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU ARE SANE! Ariana is a great worker though. The food is greasy, absolutely tasteless, and a waste of time and money. Also the salad is weak. Etc etc etc. HARAM!!! read more

The service was good and the food was great. I love the way they make their salads. I probably should have had one of those - they look so delicious! read more

The salads here are delicious, the homemade ranch is amazing and the fries are great. But the service is awful. they never have my pick up order ready on time. It says 20 minutes and then my order really takes 30-35 minutes to be ready and I shouldn't have to speak to someone to find it. Then on top of that, they almost always mess up my order somehow.always mess up my order somehow. Don't give me feta cheese when I ask for goat. I have an allergy. That should not be a mistake that was made. They've even forgotten my chicken before! Which is so frustrating because you have to pay extra for that. read more

Hello Bistro is Eat n Park's entry into what they call "fast casual" food concept. The menu consists of 3 main items-salads, burgers, and cheese. You can have your salad made to order or choose one of their prepared salads or one of their seasonal specials. I noticed the strawberry salad bears a strong resemblance to the same one currently at Eat n Park. I was told of some subtle differences that this salad has and the regular Eat n Park doesn't. They have a variety of different hamburgers including the famous superburger that the Eat n Park chain has. There is a limited selection of cheese for sandwiches. My husband decided to order the superburger with fries. He was given a number so that it could be brought out to him. I decided to try the build your own salad. You pay upfront for this first before they pull the items to build your salad. Certain items are extra such as chicken, shrimp, and avocado. You start by picking the base greens and then you get an unlimited choice of various toppings. You tell them what you want and they will pull your selections into your prep bowl. They did have items such as quinoa as a topping which I thought was different. I like quinoa but it gets mixed in the salad along with everything else. Then they will mix it up and serve it to you in a huge plastic bowl similar to what you would get at Brugger's bagels. I chose as my base kale and spinach and had them add a fair amount of my favorite vegetables, The chicken was prepared different ways so you could choose the time you wanted. I went with that. I saw that they had green ice tea available in addition to peach ice tea. If you want a lemon however, then you must ask for it while you are waiting for your salad to be prepared. They also will ask you how much or how little dressing of your choice you want before mixing it all together. I finally got my finished salad and went back to join my husband. He told me his superburger tasted a bit greasy. The fries come bagged even though we had decided to eat in. I tasted a couple and again nothing particularly outstanding about it. My salad was fair as well. My kale was crunchy and there was a lot of it! The manager Andy came over to chat with us and I got the opportunity to learn how their concept works. They do offer some farm to table items and compared to Eat n Park's famous salad bar, they offer more here. On the contrary however, when you go to Eat n Park and order the salad bar, if you don't like what is on it then you can get a fresh plate and start again. He also explained that the fries always come bagged since their concept is fast casual. I did ask about some of the pastries I found on the bar since all they were selling here were mini smiley cookies. He explained to me that since they don't have a bakery they can't carry the same mini bear claws or muffins I normally find over there. They will be carrying soups like tomato and chicken noodle in the fall. Don't look for chili. It is not a popular item here. I did get the opportunity afterwards to talk a little with the chef and learn how some of the food is prepared. The place was fairly packed by the time we left. Outdoor seating is available. They are just a little more expensive than Eat n Park. They will be opening up another Hello Bistro on Washington Road in Mt. Lebanon in the near future. The eatery is located right in the center of the upper part of the new strip mall off of Siena Dr and right around the corner from the Porch at Siena. It is a different concept having them prepare it for me. Nevertheless, I probably will return to the regular Eat n Park for their soup and salad bar where I can make it up any way I choose for a bit less money. read more

We were in the area doing errands and wanted something quick. We stopped at Hello Bistro and were so happy that we did. I love that they make the salads (regular salad bars kind of gross me out) and love that it is unlimited toppings. I made my own salad, everything was fresh and I loved that I got to customize it exactly as I wanted. My bf built a burger and enjoyed it as well. We both got an order of fries and they were absolutely delicious. I love fresh cut fries and they were def real fresh cut fries. My favorite part is the big pump of ranch next to the ketchup. The service was friendly and quick. The restaurant was clean and inviting. The meal was reasonably priced. We will def be back. read more

Eat-n-park has the south hills locked down! With their flag ship stores and now the addition of the Porch and Hello Bistro, you can't miss!And in a good way! What a great concept! Fresh food at great prices, in a laid back fun setting. The sandwiches and burgers are great! Made fresh to order. The hand cut fries are incredible and for 2$ you get a sack of them!! The salad set up is amazing! Made to order then you pick the fix-ins and they mix it, chop it, and serve it up! Great drinks in the fountain by Bolen and the milkshakes are amazing also. They setting is fun a open with tables and high seating. Plus an outdoor section, which pittsburgh restaurants need to get on Board with more! People like to sit outside to eat. Period! The prices can't be beat either, for lunch for two with drinks to be under 20$, you have to love that! read more

Hello Bistro has always been a quality quick bite restaurant for me! They make awesome made to order salads that are healthy and filling. The chicken noodle soup is also wonderful! I have had multiple pleasurable experiencing at this location. The staff is super helpful and nice! Definitely recommend if you are looking for a healthy lunch or dinner option! read more

Hello Bistro was very inviting and clean. The prices are very reasonable and portions are decent. I ordered a salad that I couldn't even finish and chicken noodle soup that is Eat n Park's recipe. What I liked the most were the healthy options that they had and the option for them to build your own salad with fresh ingredients. There fountain drink dispenser also had different flavors like cream soda and ginger ale. Yum. Give this place a try! read more

So good!! I've never heard of Hello Bistro but I'd been craving a salad all day and it did not disappoint. They have a fabulous selection of fresh and flavorful ingredients, and the citrus lime vinaigrette is FABULOUS! Zesty and delicious. Impressive portions too. read more

I've been to hello bistro a few times and each time I love my burger! It's really good and get a black cherry soda! So good! The only thing I would say it's like a Panara bread with ordering and then waiting for it to come up but it takes longer than a Panara. It's a nice place for a quick lunch or dinner. read more

Great place for a filling salad. I like that you can create your own, even down to how finely you want it chopped! Tons of toppings to choose from and a wide variety of dressings. Their premade salad suggestions are also great. I've never had any of their other food though, so I can't speak to that. I'd recommend going here for a healthy lunch or a quick dinner. read more

I've visited this establishment a few times to date now since there is one in the South Hills. Yay! It's in a good spot that has seemed to grow rapidly with other businesses nearby. Last nite was the first time I placed an online order and man, I'll tell ya, that is the way to go! Easy peasy! I highly recommend it if you don't don't want to wait since when I've went and ordered at the register, it seemed to take a significant time for "faster burgers and salads." Last night I ordered the Southern Shrimp salad and it was very good. It was so filling I could only eat half. Today is another day! I also ordered a turkey cheeseburger and it was pretty good, but nothing out of the ordinary. I did try their GF bun last time and it was kind of blah. Otherwise, the salads I've ordered on the menu or customized in the past have been good. The staff members are always friendly, and the place is clean and always lively. read more

Sometime the service can be a bit slow, but - you can't really find a better value for what you get anywhere else. Nowhere in the Pgh area can you load a bowl full of unlimited topping to go and not have it by weight. read more

Update 8/30/19: I decided to give this place another try and this time I ordered ahead and it was ready on time and nice and convenient. I ordered the Cobb salad again and AGAIN there was no chicken! I thought maybe I read the description wrong so I reread it and indeed it did list roasted chicken as part of the salad. Unbelievable! read more

Very bad service. My friend and I went today and ordered a autumn apple salad and a cup of tomato soup. Two things, two. We waited a half hour and we had to go ask where our food was. When the food came out the soup was cold and we just asked for a refund at that point. We will not be back. read more

Poor service. Took 35 minutes to get food. Tomato Soup was watery. Chicken Noodle Soup was average. Very similar Eat N' Park's chicken noodle soup. Grilled Cheese Sandwiches were good. Ham Burger was slightly above average. Fries are average "fresh-cut", little greasy & a little soggy. read more

I frequent this Hello Bistro and just had a salad there today. I've never seen the place so filthy. Every surface near the salad bar was really dirty. The bathroom was awful. Many items in the bar were empty. Not a happy customer today! read more

The food is very tasty, but the lobby is always dirty and our order is never right. We don't even order custom salads, everything we get is off of the predesigned menu. We ordered 2 salads, a burger with fries, and a kids meal with a grilled cheese. We got the wrong burger, two kids meals, one happened to be right, and only one salad. The salad was even wrong, no blue cheese as listed on the menu, and the salad was dressed, after we asked for it on the side. Basically, we got someone else's order. We of course realize this after we get home and have a hungry toddler. read more

The food is fine, but it takes FOREVER. I'm currently at 23 minutes for a burger and a cup of soup and still patiently waiting. It's like this every time. I should have remembered and not come back. read more

I love this place for the make your own salads (great ingredients and large selection), but it took me a half hour to get a salad and I still haven't gotten my fries. All of the employees seem maxed out, they need more people to manage each station. read more

Please empty the trash, have your employees wear food gloves & stop touching their own hair. Seemed like the employees were just hanging out, doing their own thing and not working as a food handler. I love the concept, I want this to be good, but it is not. Never saw an E&P ran like this place. read more

Hello Bistro - The place was empty, no customers, a handful of employees standing around. How about taking out the trash. - Salad Near Me - Upper Saint Clair, Pennsylvania

Pretty good burger. I only get the bbq burger. It comes with fries on it too, which I like. I've found myself there a good bit lately. It's about 9 bucks. You can get a burger small salad and a fountain drink for like $12. Good service and nice people every time I've been there. read more

Worth the visit for the salads! The other posts here saying it's just like Eat n Park are sadly mistaken. There are way more toppings to pick from, everything is super fresh, and there is a great dressing selection. They have pre selected salads you can order but you're better off making your own. I highly recommend the chicken with the fiesta seasoning. read more

The employees work their butts off, are always on their feet, and do an amazing job. The people who stood out the most to be were two girls working at the salad bar I asked for their names and they told me they were Leigha and Lexi. I am a big hello bistro fan and I highly recommend. I hope to see these girls there again. They helped me pick the best choice as it was my first visit to the bistro. It was a lovely sunday afternoon and service was fast and these girls were polite and got my order exactly right! read more

So disappointed with what started out as a good thing. We like the "idea" of the salads we have so we order them to go. To make it easy we call in or order online. When we get it home it is wrong 9 out of 10 times. Now they have removed the option of having the salads chopped, so the kale salad I like has to be purchased with the kale in "bite size" pieces. Good luck with that, Kale is meant to be chopped. Thanks for turning a good thing into a not good anymore thing read more

I like their food, but this particular location needs to get their act together. The staff is young and disorganized. Total disaster getting a simple order. read more

We had salads and sandwiches for lunch when we were here. My husband had the Pot roast sandwich, and said it was good. My daughter had the Greek Salad which looked fantastic! I had the pick your own toppings salad and would ABSOLUTELY recommend you order this. You can get it with a meat option, or without (I did chicken)and there has to be about 50 different choices of veggies and other toppings. Even the lettuce options were plentiful and fresh. I want to say there were 10-15 dressings to choose from as well. Also, they chop it all for you and ask how you want it chopped. Very clean, lots of seating inside and fresh food :) read more

I've had both a burger and a salad here now, and I have to be honest while it isn't bad food it definitely isn't anything outstanding. The salad is basically $9 to have someone the EnP salad bar in a bowl and the burger was kind of a bland underwhelming sandwich. I do like the location and I like that i can order a salad and pick it up on the way home when I'm in a pinch for dinner, but I wish the quality of the items for the salads were a little higher. The service here has been excellent each time I've been and their sodas are admittedly really good. I just wish for a standalone EnP concept they'd up the quality a little bit. read more

The food that we got silvered was good, however they did not read any of the notes we added to our order. So because of that a lot was missed. read more

If you need a place for a salad, burger or fries this is your place. Great location in Siena development. Big fan of their flavorful fries, juicy burgers, and large salads. Easy to order via online or pickup in store. Good selection of Boylan sodas. Friendly staff. read more

I'm a frequent guest at other Hello Bistro locations and today was my first time at this new location. First off, the avocado I ordered was missing-- kinda annoying because you pay extra but whatever. There was also barely any of the other items I ordered in it.. one carrot, little to no quinoa, etc. what really turned me off is there was a few random pieces of ham and chicken, none of which I ordered. I pretty much stopped eating after that. I think I'll go to Whole Foods next door the next time I'm crazy a good salad. read more

How many times can Eat n Park try another concept using the same old food? If you are going to serve the same soup, burgers, and salad bar why not call it Eat n Park. I understand that they are trying to open new outlets and different concepts, but it if you never change the ingredients why bother. My wife and I stopped on our way to Target to pick up a few things. She ordered the Caprese grilled cheese sandwich and fries. After reviewing the menu and seeing all the speciality burgers I began to think that their burger must be something special. I also ordered a bowl of chicken noodle soup, I love soup. My burger came without any condiments, I had to go up to the counter to ask for mayo, and the burger tasted slightly better than the frozen ones you get from Costco. Oh, and soup is the same chicken noodle you get at Eat n Park, which is not bad, but like I stated before if I wanted to eat at Eat n Park it's a five-minute drive down the street. Do not be tricked, if you want Eat n Park level food, go to an Eat n Park. read more

So this is my first visit to hello Bistro. I gave one star because the Boylan bottling soda was excellent. But, that's all that was good. Tomato soup was watered down Campbell's. I had the tandoori chicken arugula salad. I am not exaggerating when I tell you that there was possibly half an ounce of chicken. The arugula was not entirely fresh, plenty of yellow wilted mixed . And probably 1/2 oz. of raw beets. $9 of wilted greens. If this is eat n park's version of healthy eating, they need to go back to the drawing board. read more
