But hey, it's a neighborhood bar and it doesn't try to be anything more. The drinks are cheap, the service is quick and courteous, there's a dart board and slot machines in the back and it's not in a dangerous neighborhood. Yeah it's a dive, but it's a safe, cheap and comfortable dive.

I went with my parents and it took us a little while to agree that the building was actually Pido's. It is located off 8th Avenue in Homestead on a type of back road and nested among residential homes. It really doesn't stick out so keep your eyes open if you're going there for the first time. Small dining room with a little bar. But this place is cozy and familiar and right away you feel at home. The wait staff was so friendly and we enjoyed talking with our waiter throughout the evening. There is an appetizer of hot cashew nuts that is addictive and delicious. A great selection of pizzas to choose from and also some great fish sandwiches. I don't want to call Pido's a dive, but it has that feel, but with terrific food. I can't wait to go back!

We live super close (Edgewood/Wilkinsburg line) and 3 of us walked in. The bartender/worker saw us and then ignored us. We sat down at a table in the almost empty restaurant. We sat for 20 minutes before leaving. Nobody came over or gave us water, nothing. I honestly don't know how this place stays in business. This was months ago and we have never been back. We have lived in the area for 4-5 years and we have never eaten at this Dive Bar location because weve never heard a good thing. We drive by often too and it's always almost empty

Not everything was fantastic, but the overall quality of the food items we ordered was well beyond expectations. We ordered takeout, and our order was ready at the expected time. The only comment I'll make on online ordering is that the first available pick-up slot was about an hour after we placed our order. Plan accordingly. In terms of the food, we were generally impressed. The falafel plate was generally good, but not fantastic. The falafel was a little doughy and lacking in crunch or herb content. The pickled beets on the platter were a very nice addition. So a mixed bag. The mujaddara was excellent, with nicely caramelized onions. The musabaha was interesting and flavorful, but it didn't seem to survive the drive home particularly well. The fatoosh salad was good, with extremely crispy pita chips. That having been said, the lettuce was starting to wilt by the time it got home. Possibly unavoidable. The hummus was excellent, and the spinach and feta pie was fantastic. So generally good food, with a relatively small number of minor misses. Overall, this is a reasonable takeout operation. There were a handful of people enjoying the bar when we picked up our order, but I'm not sure I would opt for using the space as a drinking destination.

It's been a while that I've moved out of Pittsburgh; I've found other bars that I like, but nothing has quite replaced Gooski's in my heart. I make a point to pay my respects every time I return here. Hardly anything has changed on the interior in the last 30 years. And I hope it never does. It's dark, it's grimy, it's smoky, it's quintessentially Pittsburgh. Crowd has always been an effervescent mix of ages and walks of life. The beer selection is wide and affordable. And the food is just right for intoxicated palates.

First, I wish I would have bought a Gooski's shirt. I have no idea if they had them when I visited but I totally forgot to check when I was there. It feels like the kind of place that if you're wearing this shirt in your hometown a Pittsburgh native would stop you on the street to tell you, "Gooski's is legendary." I wish I was there for the cheap ass drinks and edgy vibe when a band was playing as I love a punk rock vibe, but I think I was there too early in the day for that. The staff was cool, the drinks were exactly what you'd expect, and it's the kind of place that I'd spend way too much time in if I lived in Pittsburgh.
