Stopped here for dinner on a Thursday night. Had a reservation for 2 at 8:30. Checked in at 8:15 and were sat immediately. I will say this is probably one of the most upscale restaurants we have been to in the PGH area. Located on Mt. Washington overlooking the point and downtown, we had a table right next to the big windows. We started with sharing a French onion soup and the burrata, along with the assorted table breads which came out warm. The soup was good, a deep and hearty flavor to the broth and the cheese and bread topper is always a nice addition to this dish. The burrata was good as well, but it seemed somewhat executed poorly - just haphazard tomato slices with no real balsamic. Reminded me of something someone could make in their kitchen to mimic what they got at the restaurant. For my entree, I went with the filet which comes with potato mash and beans and carrots. Steak was done properly medium; the vegetables were good and crisp; but the potatoes I'm still waiting on the rest of. It was like they were out and scraped the bottom of the pan for whatever was left. They tasted good A just not enough of them. I also added a side of lobster risotto which was just a mess. It wasn't creamy, and was just a mess of various stuff that was hard to negotiate. For dessert, the carrot cake was very good. Our waiter - young guy with a mustache and a bow tie was good. But he went kind of absent halfway thru the meal. Kind of odd bc we were only one of 4 tables in the whole place late Thursday. Overall good, just some hiccups.

Went with family for a graduation dinner and they did such a great job. Inside is extremely unique with gold trim and fancy vibe. The view of the city was fantastic. Ordered a Caesar salad, which was prepared as any salad. Ordered a fillet mignon and was delicious. I do not eat green beans, but the carrots and mashed potatoes were good as well. They served a small chocolate cake for the graduate which tasted good as well. Service was good, she was very attentive and brought extra rolls when asked. Would come back for a nice occasion again!

Dining at LeMont feels less like a night out and more like stepping into a perfectly preserved time capsule from 1972. Situated atop Mt. Washington with a commanding view of Pittsburgh's skyline, the venue exudes vintage grandeur -- and not always in a good way. From the moment you walk in under the glow of opulent chandeliers, you're hit with a swirl of nostalgia, gold accents, and the faint hum of diners yelling over a soundtrack that's more nightclub than fine dining. The Scene: Glamorous Decay Meets Golden Girls Energy LeMont is the place where birthdays, anniversaries, and septuagenarian seductions collide. The bar is buzzing with women who could've taught charm school in the '80s -- and are still working the room like it's happy hour at the Copa. Everyone's dressed to impress, just not necessarily for this decade. As for the noise level, it's off the charts. The music is so loud you'll find yourself screaming over Sinatra remixes while battling the eerie feedback of a dozen hearing aids shorting out in unison. The place is alive, just not in a way that says "refined." The Food: A Sysco-Powered Soirée Let's not kid ourselves -- this isn't farm-to-table. This is Sysco-to-freezer-to-table, served under the guise of classic Continental cuisine. The shrimp cocktail is textbook 1980s hotel banquet. Steaks are perfectly uniform, and sauces feel like they were engineered for mass production. You're not here for a culinary revelation. You're here to relive someone's third marriage reception. Service: Earnest, Polite, and in on the Joke The staff does their best and remains cheerful amidst the chaos. They know exactly where they work -- a place where patrons toast to 40 years of marriage while yelling "turn it down!" to no one in particular. They're polite, responsive, and willing to snap a photo of your party under the chandeliers, whether it's your 80th birthday or just Wednesday night at LeMont. Amenities: Sports Bar Touch in a Supper Club Shell One can't help but mention the jarring presence of a television above the bar playing a baseball game -- because nothing says fine dining like watching the Pirates get swept while sipping a glass of mid-tier Chardonnay beneath a crystal chandelier. Final Thoughts: A Pittsburgh Spectacle LeMont isn't just a restaurant -- it's an institution. A throwback to when men wore jackets to dinner and women carried clutch purses the size of VCRs. It's kitsch wrapped in velvet, served with a breadbasket that hasn't changed in 40 years. If you're celebrating a milestone and want a heavy dose of Pittsburgh glam and glittered nostalgia, LeMont delivers -- unironically. But if you're chasing cutting-edge cuisine or ambiance under 90 decibels, look elsewhere.

The main attraction to this restaurant is the view of Pittsburgh and the three rivers. We were there for an awards ceremony but the food was mediocre at best. I like a steak bloody rare. My steak was well-done. I wrestled this shoe leather for a few bites and passed it on to someone who likes a well-done steak. The vegetables and the salad were tasty. The cheesecake dessert was very common like a grocery store brand. The maitre d was rushing us around like cattle to get seated and eventually started serving salads to empty tables. He was not a happy man. They have a tasty Bloody Mary. The view was incredible and the night was enjoyed. The decor of the restaurant was beautiful. The food was mediocre. Parking is valet. They have a coat check and they take reservations. There is a dance floor. The women's restroom is old style with a sitting room. I loved the ambiance.

Been here many times and it's always wonderful experience and spectacular views. Be sure to ask for a window table when making a reservation, especially at a sunset, is highly recommended and memorable experience! The food was also amazing and service is absolutely incredible! Highly recommended!

Overall: come for the view but don't stay for the food. The service was super accommodating and nice but I wouldn't say the food tasted great by any means. Food: it's been a while since I've had a filet mignon but I don't remember them being as grainy as that one was. I understand the waiter messed up and gave me my friends medium cooked one as opposed to my medium rare one (or they messed up the cooking) but it really didn't feel like a filet but rather a top sirloin. The salad to start was not bad but the whole grape tomatoes was very lazy to just "throw them in". The cheesecake left more to be desired as it's as plain as it looks. Ambience/Decor/Service: super posh upscale restaurant that I would argue is too expensive for the quality of food. Yes it's beautiful inside and sits with one of the best views of Pittsburgh but at least make the food bearable. Service was incredibly rapid and the people there are on top of things. My only quip is that for a fancy restaurant the attention to detail isn't there as many a times I've waiters fingers were touching the food when serving to us.

Caesar Salad - they make it tableside!
Christina Y.

I'd highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a nice dinner in Pittsburgh! The view was amazing and the service was fabulous! I also enjoyed the food and quality of what I received! They start you off with rolls that are crunchy and flaky on the outside and soft on the inside. I also loved that we had our own butter plate with butter, the little things right? I started with a caesar salad that they made tableside, which was fun to watch but also made it feel super fresh! It was delicious and perfectly seasoned! I got the tomahawk pork chop which was juicy and crispy on the outer edge, the way I like pork chops! The sides weren't my favorite but it was okay since the chop was huge I need with crème brûlée, which had a nice vanilla flavor, smooth and sugary!

Lemont Salad
Tina L.

I decided to come here for my birthday dinner! We did reservations on open table and were seated immediately. It was worth going here during restaurant week! We got to experience three courses for $45.25. The steak had 25% fatty parts to it so I would be aware of that. The place is very spacious and open with a great view. They do charge a $2 per slice cake fee if you bring your own to celebrate.

Table side setup
Lyn C.

Let me start off by saying, I loved the ambiance. Everything was beautifully decorated and the view of the city was beautiful. The food was horrendous. We ordered the table side Beef Tenderloin for two. The steak wasn't cooked well. Some parts were rare, some were well done, some were medium. As soon as I saw the waiter butcher the cut with a dull kitchen knife, I knew to immediately lower my expectations. The steak wasn't even hot . The vegetables were drenched in E&J Liquor and had the nastiest aftertaste. The mashed potatoes were tasteless, The bill was over $250 per couple. What a WASTE of money. The MOST DISRESPECTFUL part was the $24 scallop. They literally put down a plate with TWO scallops. No garnish, no presentation, nothing. Just 2 scallops on a plate. DISRESPECTFUL as hell!!!! PLEASE NEVER GO HERE AND WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! Or just go to the bar.

Wedding Reception
Omar S.

Every city worth seeing should be seen from some high perch, and Le Mont serves that purpose quite well, offering spectacular views of Pittsburgh's Three Rivers and the downtown skyline from the cliff-edge of Mount Washington. I visited Le Mont for a wedding reception, so my experience extends only to the restaurant's catered service. Were I to return, I'd explore Le Mont's a la carte dining, which, judging by the photos posted on Yelp and elsewhere, appears to be an array of steakhouse and Continental classics.

No. Food is terrible and way overpriced. Go to Monterey Bay which is down the street and you will also get a gorgeous view and meal.

When we walked in, the host greeted us right away, asked for our name, and seated us pretty quickly. There were actually a good amount of open seats, so I am not sure reservations were completely necessary, but it was still nice to have one. I honestly expected the inside to feel more extravagant and space themed, almost like an outer space vibe with more visual elements and atmosphere. I was hoping for something more immersive and futuristic. It was still cool overall, just not quite as visually dramatic as I imagined. We ordered an espresso martini and the Kiwi Nova. I really enjoyed my drink, especially after talking with the host who explained that they use scientific processes for their cocktails along with fresh purées and fresh ingredients. That is something I really appreciate because I am not a fan of drinks made with a lot of simple syrup or fake additives. He loved his espresso martini and said it was one of the best he has had. My drink was definitely on the sweeter side and I feel like too much of it might lead to a hangover, but it was still really good. Our server was attentive at first, but later on we ended up waiting a while to order another round. After sitting for a bit, we decided to order through the hostess instead and she got us taken care of right away. Overall, it was a cool experience mainly for the drinks. The cocktails were definitely the highlight. Service was okay, and I am not sure if we will return, but I am glad we finally got to check it out.

The artwork is great and all the fun photographs and sayings. Every time I'm there I spot something new. There is even a gumball machine with poetry in it. How cool. Most often we have gone for live music. This time we were in the area and just wanted to grab a drink. They did have a DJ though which was fun. It was also a great choice because they stay open late when so many local places close early. They do have a limited food menu but I have never eaten there. They have a variety of drinks ranging from non alcoholic to beer or wine, even cider. The cocktail menu is where it's at though. There are so many choices and some unique combinations. It's been fun trying so many. I think my favorite drink on the menu is Galeophobia which comes in a fun shark glass. It's fruity without being too sweet and the macadamia liquor adds just the right amount of nuttiness in the background. I seriously could drink several of them. The Spork House Punch is another favorite. Immediately *pinkies up* with the fancy little crystal mug. The pear and lemon gives such great flavor and it's well balanced and an easy drinker. It also feels like a good value with the amount you get. This time my fiancé tried Elvis' death and loved the toilet mug. He said it was tasty but a bit expensive for what it was so he probably wouldn't order it again. Fun bartenders, great drinks, good atmosphere, enjoyable entertainment.. what's not to love?

We came to Pittsburgh while they were hosting the D2 March Madness in 2026, and thanks to my…read morenephew's team bringing us out here, we were able to uncover this gem of a cigar lounge. I've been to quite a few cigar lounges--and even worked at one--so I have a good sense of what makes a place stand out. Burn by Rocky Patel did just that on every level. The ambiance, décor, cigar selection, and service were all top-tier. It's a classy lounge with a twist of sports bar energy, which made it both elevated and fun. We enjoyed it so much that we came back the next day, and they had live entertainment--a violinist playing along to hip hop and R&B--which created such a unique vibe. Kayla, the bartender, let us know about the live entertainment the day before, it wasn't posted on their social media or website. She was attentive, sweet, and made excellent drinks. Evan, who was working the cigar side, was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and communicated well with customers even during a heavy flow. One thing that really stood out was the crowd--mixed ages, mature, and plenty of ladies confidently partaking in the beautiful art of cigars, which I loved seeing. Even if you don't smoke cigars, the vibes in this place are worth the visit. If and when I return to Pittsburgh, this place is a must. It's also within walking distance to the stadiums, which is a huge plus. Feedback for management: The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is the disconnect between locations and social media postings. There was an event listed on the website that wasn't actually happening at this location, while an amazing event that was happening wasn't shared online; which would have been a shame to miss. It may be worth considering in-house social media and website management to ensure updates are accurate and timely to the specific location.

My main negative is the smell gets stuck in my hair so that will be a deterrent for me coming back unfortunately, but I will at some point for the atmosphere.
