    Indoor at Moodz....
    Milo B.

    So this Illy Philly is headed to a work meeting, and I needed some vegan goodness in my life. I stopped at Moodz because I'm so excited that they now serve vegan Wings, vegan Steak Rolls, vegan Chix wraps & sandwiches, Vegan Shrimp Po' Boys, and vegan Fish sandwiches!!!! What is this whole vegan loveliness?!!!!!! They also had some fabulous dessert items for very vegan treats like Strawberry Crunch cupcakes, Banan Nut Muffins, Cinnamon Crumb muffins, and the cutest little Apple Pies!!!! I ordered the Vegan Steak Rolls and baaabbyyyyyy, what!!!!! Soooo good!!!! If you need breakfast, a smoothie, lunch, or just a treat, and you're vegan, gluten-free, and leaning towards organic, make it over to Carson St. on the Southside and get into it. It's a Mood....

    Philly steak sandwich
    Whitley S.

    It's the PORTIONS for me... The food I tried was delicious! I tried the pasta salad, fsh sandwich, steak sandwich, and buffalo chicken fries over the course of a few visits. Pasta salad was a bit sweet for my taste, but to each their own. With the world we live in (higher costs and less product), I assumed the portions would be great. Trust me - you won't leave hungry. Great vegan option, especially for this city!

    Loaded fries
    nathan h.

    Once again the food was absolutely amazing. The loaded fries are the best. The fries by themselves are great, but you throw all this great stuff on it and it takes it over the top. The inside of this place is great and if the weather wasn't so nice i would've eaten inside. The guy that helped us could've been a tad nicer. It seemed like we were bothering him a little but it might have been a long day. Regardless of that, I'll be back. Another thing to keep in mind, you can't change make any substitutions. You'll have to buy a side sauce. Great stuff though.

    Moodz is exactly what southside needed!! Killer smoothies and bowls! Love the cute atmosphere and decor. The guy working was so awesome and very helpful in crafting the best smoothie bowl possible. I can't wait to try everything on the menu!!

    Cool new smoothie/juice bar in South Side. The decorations are super cool. Love the Funko figures and basketball hoop...what a fun place to drop in and have a smoothie. I tried the PB &J smoothie bowl. It was pretty good, but I think the chocolate chips should be shavings instead because they got very hard in the smoothie. Also some consistency on the menu would have been helpful. The smoothie bowl said to choose toppings, but the toppings were labeled as boosts on the menu. Also, maybe grouping the fruits and vegetables separately would help the avocado, kale and spinach from getting lost in the huge list of fruit.

    Moodz Co. new local spot for fresh juices, smoothies & smoothie bowls! Located on East Carson street in the South Side. Delicious fresh product! I recommend the 777- all the berries!!!!

    Parking is metered on Carson or side streets. Very friendly and helpful staff. The mango smoothie was refreshing. I can't wait to go back and try a bowl!

    So excited to try Moodz smoothies and smoothie bowls. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. I loved the colorful vibe of the decor. One of my favorite parts besides the smoothie was signing my name on the wall. I got the N7 smoothie and got another in a smoothie bowl to go. It was delicious and reminded me of cinnamon crunch cereal. Definitely a must see smoothie and juice bar to check out when you are in the Southside.

    This business is a mess. I've dined in, gotten take out and delivery, and each time there was a major problem with my order. They regularly close up to two hours early with no warning and no explanation. The menu inside the store is never updated or accurate, and the menu online is so screwed up it shows half the items as out of stock (some are, some aren't) and the other half of the items are actually out of stock, but are shown as in-stock. I ordered the golden BBQ chickn sandwich, banana pudding, and macaroni salad through their website, which requires a $25 minimum order and an EIGHT dollar service fee. An absolute racket. My food showed up 2.5 hours later, and I only received the sandwich. I called them to ask where my other two items were, and the guy just said "our website is messed up, but we refunded you for the items you didn't get." They hadn't. Two days later, the refund finally came through. But I still paid $26 for a sandwich, which was so overly smothered in sauce it was a dripping, soggy mess and almost inedible. I've given this place 4 chances now and they have never redeemed themselves. Never again.

    Mama Guava
    Jamie F.

    Friendly staff and delicious and refreshing smoothie. I got the Guava Mama on the recommendation from the staff. It wasn't too sweet (which I liked) and had lots of fresh fruit. I will definitely be back again with my son, who is vegan, and will love how big the vegan selection is there.

Probably one of the quirkiest places in South Pittsburgh - fronted by a thrift and curiosity shop - it's rather easy to miss given the off-the-beaten path location. Anyhow, we had an excellent experience. The brunch had several options - we opted for the seitan "pot roast" and the mushroom pasta. Both were great - ample portions and flavorful. The salad buffet was great, offering a bunch of options, all of which were pretty tasty. I didn't try the dessert section, but it was also pretty large. Overall, possibly the fairest deal on a meal you can get in the greater Pittsburgh region, while still keeping things healthy. Tables are arranged where it's communal, so you end up meeting other folks in a close environment. The walls are adorned with all kinds of artwork, there's no shortage of things to look at. Lastly, I saw some people on a certain social media platform had some critiques of the menu development method - it's all a bad opinion, this is a legacy business in our city and deserves even more of the positive attention they currently get.....support this place!

The layout is wonderfully chaotic; half of it is a restaurant and the other half is a packed antique shop and vintage clothing store. You're literally sitting at a mismatched table surrounded by creepy old dolls, retro lamps, and racks of 1970s jackets while you wait for your food, which is just the coolest vibe. The service matches the aesthetic...it's laid-back, totally unpretentious, and run by folks who just let you do your thing. But let's talk about the food, because it's some of the best vegetarian and vegan comfort food you will ever eat, hands down. I always crave their Seitan Reuben (and I'm not even vegan), which is so perfectly savory and messy, and if you go for their famous Sunday brunch, you have to load up on the sesame peanut noodle salad and grab a slice of whatever vegan cake they have out that day. It's affordable, incredibly quirky, and I'll keep coming back forever.

    I visited them last August while attending the VegFest and like many other places I've enjoyed over…read morethe years that I have yet to review I am just now getting around to leaving them one. So, actually a guy at the information booth was eating something from here and I asked him where he got it from because it looked very good and he recommended them to me. So we headed their way. Tbh: Every place that we wanted to eat at had a line 25-50 deep and we were super hungry and their line was only like 5-7 people deep which was a blessing. First off, the service in general was kind of crappy, but I understand as it was a hot and very busy day and from what they told my gf at the time they were getting low on food as well and only had a couple items that were left from the menu. After deciding what we wanted which was one of three things my gf at the time ordered us the Mac and Cheese and a container of ranch to take home while I looked for a place for us to eat. So after they handed her our food we headed over to an area with tables and chairs to eat the Mac and Cheese. I must say we both thoroughly enjoyed every single bit of it and my gf at the time isn't even vegan. So that says a lot! I highly recommended it :) FYI: The person who took her order also forgot to give her the container of ranch she paid for. I wasn't made aware that she purchased it until afterwards because my gf at the time wanted to surprise me but they didn't give her a receipt so she had no proof. Oh well, you live and learn, sadly! The vibe on this day was on point so we let the little things go in regards to the crappy service and the shorting us of an overpriced container of ranch fall to the wayside and continued on with our wonderful day, smiling and enjoying the amazing festival and area. If I decide to stop by your food trailer again this year at the festival or whenever I am somewhere you are posted up in front of, I hope you make up for your mistakes from last year because that's the right thing to do.

The restaurant is in the heart of the Northside on Ohio Street nestled among some other really great restaurants like Siempre Algo and Fig & Ash. Parking is a little tricky and the street is a little sketchy. Inside, the restaurant is small with the open kitchen on the first floor and additional seating and a bar on the second floor. When we visited the restaurant first, there was a power outage so we had to leave. The restaurant was accommodating and gave us our drinks for free and allowed us to easily reschedule. There's no doubt that the chef is excellent and classicly French trained. Every dish was exquisitely plated and flavors were intricately chosen that paired well and complimented each other. You could tell that the chef used different culinary techniques on each dish, and it did not go unnoticed. However, I really did not enjoy the food. Everything was super flavorful to the point where it was almost too overpowering. The flavors paired well together but often created an explosion of flavor in my mouth and not in a good way. I feel as though the chef compensated the lack of meat with extra flavor that really did not leave a lasting impression. Vegetables are naturally very bland and require a lot of flavoring to enhance the natural taste, so it makes sense why each dish was so flavorful. Nevertheless, it really just was not for me. I think this restaurant is unique and special and such a bright light to the restaurant scene in Pittsburgh, but I also feel like it's specialized for a certain type of eater, and it is not for everyone! I am super glad that I went outside of my comfort zone to try this restaurant, but I most likely will not be back. On a side note, the service was absolutely excellent. Our waiter was super attentive and willing to explain everything dish to us. It was refreshing and welcomed after we have had some horrific service experiences lately. Kudos to the chef for his excellent craftsmanship! He truly is what holds the restaurant together!
