We booked our anniversary dinner at Soba, and they did not disappoint…read more We had a great table close to the opening with fresh air and seats to see the dining area and bar. Our server was very sweet and helped us around the menu. We started with the spicy tuna roll and dumplings. The dumplings tasted fresh. The spicy tuna rolls was huge and could almost be your whole meal. The rare tuna had a nice char on the sesame crust. The branzino was served in a delicious panang curry. We left very full. It was an anniversary dinner we won't forget. If you're coming in, note that they do change their menu seasonally. But worth stopping in. It's a nice change of pace from being in downtown.

If West Elm and a bonsai garden decided to do a restaurant collab, it's Pusadee's Garden. The…read moreinterior was really simple yet elegant. We didn't see much of the inside because we chose the option to enjoy our meal outside in the garden. Fortunately, we were able to snag a 5:30 PM reservation a couple Fridays ago. My friend set up notification alerts on Resy and a different party canceled their reservation the day before. This restaurant is very popular. KHAO YUM - 24 This is a 17 ingredient salad with tamarind dressing. I'm not usually a salad person, but this one was incredibly delicious and refreshing. Lots of crispy textures from the various vegetables, some juicy, tart and bitter pieces of grapefruit, and the crispy rice was the perfect fried carb on top. A bit pricy, but a great app to share for the whole table. CRISPY SHRIMP - 32 We were each able to get two pieces of shrimp among the four of us. The shrimp was batter and fried with a sweet garlicky glaze. While it was crispy and juicy, I thought it was a bit too saucy. It wasn't my favorite, but one of my friends really enjoyed the shrimp -- sauce and all. KHAO SOI - 48 The red and yellow curry was flavorful, and the egg noodles were perfectly soft with a bit of chew. The wagyu beef cheek was tender, but there wasn't much in it. Overall, I thought this was a bit too overpriced for what it was. MASSAMAN CURRY - 48 Incredibly phenomenal The massaman curry was incredibly rich with its sweet and savory flavor. Each order came with a whole lamb shank. The meat was incredibly tender and flavorful -- it fell off the bone with ease. I highly recommend this entree for its delicious curry and lamb. Overall, pricy food with a elegant aesthetic. It's also more of fusion Thai food than it is authentic. Can definitely see why this is one of the more popular and well-loved restaurants in Pittsburgh!

It is elegant and relaxed at the same time. The service was great. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu. The cocktails were delicious and they had a fabulous selection of craft beer-local and not local. The food was fabulous. I had the salmon with tempura vegetables. For dessert we had the mango, sticky rice, and coconut ice cream which may be my new favorite dessert. Looking forward to our next visit!

When we visit our daughter, Noodlehead is a must-visit spot…read more On 5 prior occasions it's been great. This time, at lunch, they were off their game. Service was efficient but brusque/distracted. My noodles were dry and bland, and quantity was about 70 percent of normal. The other 5 at the table also felt their food was just alright. I'm please they take cards now: the cash-only model was suboptimal. And, the bring-your-own drinks approach is excellent. Overall, I'm a fan and will go back. But, this visit was just three stars.

The shrimp tempura is my favorite. The tempura is always super crispy and the eel sauce is great! Normally, I ordered Yoshino for takeout, but whenever I dined in, the service was outstanding. The waitress would regularly refill our water and tea. The presentation is always spectacular. I've gotten everything from a sushi boat to a sauce dragon. Would highly recommend Yoshino!

Seated via Resy Reservations…read more Food & Drink: 4 / 5 - Mixed Drink - Matcha Muse: I know....more "Matcha", but hear me out. This was a combination that I did not expect to actually work, but it does. The bartender does an amazing job that very few in my experience have been able to do, which is blend the drink to where it is not just 90% alcohol and 10% whatever else. This allows you to really experience the drink and its fancy little name. Food: Entree - Godzilla: This was recommended by my waiter at the time because it was the first time ever that I have tried sushi and I was not disappointed. This dish was sooooo delicious. Dessert - Churro Cheesecake: What can I say? It's cheesecake and churros. Not a big fan of sweets, but I do love me a good cheesecake. Service: 5 / 5 - No complaints. Waiter was very attentive and made sure to check in periodically. He was very passionate about his job and provided strong recommendations with his opinion on the choices when asked. When he found out that this was my first time having sushi, he took the time to explain how the menu works, which I have horrible memory, but appreciate deeply. Wouldn't mind having him as a regular waiter in the future. Vibe: 4 / 5 - Restaurant and food presentation is very pretty, clean and aim to provide you with that "fancy restaurant" experience, that so many people have come to expect. It's a very chill vibe and lighting is not bad at all. Overall: 4 / 5 - Normally, I have a rule that I don't have ocean related dishes in an area where the ocean is not readily accessible. However, an acquaintance once said, "you have to have several mid dishes before you enjoy a really good dish" and she was right. Although, I wouldn't call social house mid. I enjoyed my experience overall and the staff was very friendly. The cost-food value is on the higher end, but in my opinion it was worth it. Definitely plan to return, and try other items on the menu. Recommend? Yes

Compared to other Japanese places in the city, this is definitely one of the more American-forward, I think. I had the 唐揚げ (karaage) and the すき焼き丼 (sukiyaki don), and both felt like something you would find at any seafood place. Not bad by any means! Just very Westernized. The すき焼き丼 especially, very minimal compared to everything else, especially for the price. Thats another thing to mention--the prices are quite high, so just keep this in mind!

That translated into a very restrictive perimeter around my hotel from which I chose this fusion spot for dinner. The menu was quite a hodgepodge of familiar Asian plates. I have to admit though when I saw ramen and stir-fries on the same menu, I was wondering how well they do it all. I tried two items starting with the $13 Chicken Lettuce Wraps. The chicken was stir-fried with carrot, mushroom, and scallion in an excess of brown sauce. They provided enough iceberg lettuce to handle it, but the sauciness really let me down (Photo 9). The second dish, the Sichuan String Beans with Shrimp, was better but still overshadowed by whatever sauté seasoning they used quite liberally (Photo 10). Fortunately the side of white rice helped offset the uneven flavor (Photo 8). It was all middling at best. FOOD - 3 stars...saucy and middling for such a diverse menu AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...dominated by a long bar, on the dark side SERVICE - 3.5 stars...certainly nice enough TOTAL - 3 stars...a bit of fusion confusion RELATED - Exploring Pittsburgh?

For the price point, the absolute best sushi you can get. In terms of low, mid, or high cost sushi,…read moreI would put this in the mid category, nearly pushing high, but not quite. Like, if you're comparing it to somewhere like Gi-Jin (which is the absolute peak of the high cost sushi), it is way more affordable. The quality to price point comparison here is genuinely unbeatable. You can get some VERY high quality, tasty fish for less than other joints. I frequent Mola as a delivery option and it stays fresh on the way. I definitely need to visit in person!
