    Quick and delicious. I wish employees in the same building received a small discount of some sort.

    We had dinner here as a group of four on a Thursday. They don't take reservations and we had to…read morewait about 45 minutes to get a table, but it seemed like they were pretty understaffed. Our server was running around taking care of tables inside and outside. Definitely not the place to go if you're in a hurry! The food itself was delicious. We loved the Rita pasta and I could have had 6 more servings of tiramisu. My fave was the chicken parm!

    We drove an hour to try this restaurant after calling the day before and being told that arriving…read morebetween 5:15-5:30 p.m. would "most likely be fine," as they don't get busy until 6. We arrived at 5:30 and were quoted a 45-minute wait (possibly less). We stood outside for over an hour. During that time, we watched multiple parties who arrived after us get seated ahead of us--including a two-top seated immediately after we were told we were "next." When we questioned it, staff were defensive and claimed some guests "live nearby," put their names in earlier, and leave to wait for a text. That was never explained on the phone or upon arrival. From what we directly observed, the seating process did not appear first-come, first-served. It appeared selective. Transparency matters, and so does basic courtesy when guests ask legitimate questions. Ten minutes after we finally left--after waiting over an hour--we were told our table was ready. By then, the issue was no longer the wait, but the clear lack of organization and professionalism. We will not be returning.

    I suppose unless you're a "regular" at this establishment, you will be ignored and neglected…read morebecause clearly they don't care about new customers which my father and I were today around 4pm ish on. Monday afternoon....Having to wait nearly an hour for a hoagie and 6 wings whenever there was only maybe 8-10 total patrons after placing our order is inexcusable with that tiny bit of clientele in the building during the time of ordering......very expensive for what you get too, and also the place was disgusting! The floors and the bar top were sticky like multiple drinks were spilled all over and were never cleaned up. Never again!

    I made my return to Rockefellers after at least a 10/15 year absence. My wife and I were attending…read morean event nearby and decided Rockefellers would be a decent choice for a meal. We were promptly seated. After being seated our waitress kind of disappeared. She eventually reappeared, but it is obvious regulars are favored here. We placed our drink orders the same time as our meals. My wife and I both ordered draft beer and felt they tasted flat. I ordered one of the specials (pot roast) and it was supposedly sold out, 90 minutes after the on sale. Minimal to no check ins. My wife had a fish sandwich and had to ditch her soggy bun midway through. I'm in no rush to return. Portion for the pot roast was beyond lackluster. Atmosphere was average at best. Definitely more quality options.

    My wife and I arrived in Pittsburgh and wanted a place with excellent food and a great atmosphere…read moreto watch the hockey game. Bonus points for being in Mount Washington, which allowed us to ride the Monongahela Incline up and the Duquesne Incline down. Yes it was a bit of a walk but Bigham Tavern was worth it! It was a Monday night, so there was also live music. Crowd was reasonable and we were seated at a comfortable table with a good view of the television. Our waitress was awesome, so patient! Her patience was tested because we don't drink much and wanted to order the food gradually throughout the game. We benefited from happy hour pricing for a tasty pickle dip and glasses of wine. We added some outstanding wings, so many great flavors to choose from! Next phase was an outstanding gluten free pesto and mozzarella pizza! Crust was too good to be true! The game was rough at first but turned around in time for me to order the Big Ham sandwich with a side of kale salad. The sandwich was delicious and served on a pretzel bun. The kale salad was an awesome side dish, tons of flavor! The game kept improving and we enjoyed the rest of it in the bar area with some great fans. Lots of televisions. Great neighborhood vibe! Will gladly return when we're back in town!

    Bigham Tavern in Mount Washington has been around since 1910! It's been many different places over…read morethe years. However, the current owners named it after its original name (Bigham Tavern) paying homage to its historical value on the Mount. The food is always good (if you like wings, they're known for them) and the brews are always cold. It's a true representation of a Pittsburgh neighborhood with its food, decor, and people. They host events like trivia nights and other things. TV screens for the big games. They do a great weekend brunch.
