Seasoned wings
Keirstin C.

I came in on a football Sunday looking to sit eight people the place isnt that big and it was kinda busy. The waitress was really nice and said one table was leaving soon and she put some tables together for my large group. She was pretty attentive for serving almost the whole bar alone. My mom and I split the burger and mesquite butter wings I think they could've been a little more saucy, I didn't mention anything, but I'm sure she would've brought me more. If I asked. I heard a lot of good things about the ranch and it was good once I really really tasted it. I didn't find it that flavorful off the top but once I really tasted it, it did have good flavor. Maybe this was a fresh batch that needed to sit. My dad got the buffalo chicken eggrolls. They were good, but we didn't realize it would just be chicken dip in the eggroll wrapper We were expecting shredded chicken with hot sauce and cheese or something similar. I came to celebrate my granddad's birthday just to try something new and he generally likes bar food. He enjoyed it as we sang happy birthday to him. The other patrons and the waitstaff also joined in and someone even offered to buy him a drink. this is a really nice bar if you're looking for good food , good vibes and nice people.

Menu

Stopped in for dinner on a weeknight. The onion rings were a great choice for appetizer. Had the original steamer for dinner. It was fine, not my favorite burger ever but it was tasty with the Blaw sauce. Chips were good . Service was mostly good, though our waters weren't refilled. Basic pub atmosphere.

Fish sandwich
Art B.

Traditional preparation- Small soft bun, breaded with excellent crunch and high quality fish. I took it to go and was still crunchy 20 minutes later. Cocktail and tarter were available, traditional and solid (L,T and cheese available). Slaw was solid and fries/ chips are also a side option. Smaller tap list, but they have quality local beer available(usually an old thunder, cinderlands, grist, DG or something along those lines). While this review is specific to the fish sandwich, their other bar food is strong to very strong. Definitely worth venturing out to Blawnox.

Wing and morganator

Awesome atmosphere. Awesome service. Awesome food. Wings were excellent. Gotta get the noxs sauce with their homemade ranch. Morganator was a top 5 burger of all time for me. Also buffalo chicken egg roll was delicious

Buffalo Mac & Cheese
Dina G.

The food was soooooo good and the service was quick! came in during my break and thought it would take a while but i was wrong. The food was fast and the service was top tier. I also enjoyed the environment and the relaxing yet familial energy. The workers make you feel very welcomed which I liked a lot. I ordered the buffalo mac and cheese and it physically changed the way i think. This was the best mac and cheese i've ever had i talked about it for weeks. 10/10. My friend ordered the chicken parm with the chips and it was just as great. Definitely would recommend

dry joobie wings
Julie Anna E.

Great wing spot! Your classic dive bar vibe with great bar food. Loved all the wings- especially the butter mesquite, the spicy garlic ranch, and the dry joobie. Do not skip getting one of their eggrolls!! I loved the buff chicken one- we tried the big mac one as well. Bartender was friendly, kind, and attentive. Space was clean, not busy, and plenty of room to relax and unwind with drinks & food after a long day

Nashville hot wings
Mike M.

Stopped by for wing night and had a great first experience! Ordered the Nashville hot wings that came with pickles on top and the seasonal special which was advertised as a bourbon bacon apple jam...ate more like a Thai glaze though which was still solid. I need to go back bc I found out after that they will add ghost pepper powder to add heat which is right up my alley. The steamed burgers sound super interesting as well! The bartenders were awesome as well...super friendly and attentive!

Wanted to check out a local spot in Pittsburgh so Nox's Tavern came across on Yelp! This is the quintessential neighborhood tavern, every bar seat was taken and place had bodies at every table, always a good sign. They have street parking on the side for those unfamiliar with their surroundings. My wife and I sat down and had to order their award winning wings of course. Our flavor were the Garlic Butter and the Dry Cajun. Wings came out and looked good, about 6 to a basket and good size. The Garlic Butter was good, but just not my jam, good blend but looked very wet, not always a bad thing I just preferred the Dry Cajun instead, great flavor and crunch. We also ordered the steamed cheeseburger to split with the house made chips of course, came with the homemade Nox sauce, hard to describe but trust me get it and dip the chips in there, great combo! The cheeseburger itself was delicious, perfect medium rare and everything you'd expect from a steamed burger. No shortage of options from this place, they have about 30 different sauce flavors and all your other tavern goodies, could definitely see why this is a popular spot.

We ordered drinks and had them on our table less than 10 minutes later. The drinks were phenomenal by the way. I opted for the merlot and it was a great pour.

I got the viva sampler, and everything from the taquitos to the Mexican street corn tasted like cardboard. I took the chicken out of the taquito to see if maybe it was just the tortilla, no - it was just flavorless. The sauces it came with were the only things that were halfway decent. Then, my sister and I decided to split the flan and tres leches. Mistake numbers two and three. The flan was grainy and the tres leches has no flavor - where was the cinnamon the spices the sweetened condensed milk. Those were terrible. The mocktail was just overly sweet juice with no real thought or effort put into it. For $54 - I expect more. It's overpriced. It's flavorless. And the atmosphere was nonexistent. They're charging for nonexistent "vibes" and neon signs. Not worth it. The service was just okay. Plaza Azteca is the superior choice if given the option.

There wasn't a lot of information about this restaurant online, so I decided to go check this out…read morefor myself and get some information going here. The restaurant is on the main drag at Freeport Road, but it's a little hard to spot due to various trees being in the way. This is more of a bar than a restaurant. They have counter seats, a couple of elevated seats and a few regular seats. The place is very clean and the waitress was very nice. The restaurant does not have paper menus, just a menu written on a chalkboard on the wall. It's not a major issue, but they need to get menu's. The restaurant also does not have silverware ready at your table for you. That also needs to be fixed as while most of their foods are items you pick up with your hand, sometimes forks and knives are needed. The prices are reasonable and you can get two apps and two meals for under $50. The main draw of this place is the chicken wings. They are one of the few places in Pittsburgh with full-sized wings with both the leg and the flat part together. The wings are breaded and are good enough to eat without even putting sauce on them though they give you a box with 8 different sauces to choose from. You can get 6 of them (which is 12 wings elsewhere) or a full dozen (which is 24 wings elsewhere). 6 wings for $12 and $12 for 22. They have wing night on Wednesdays, and the price drops to 75 cents a wing which is very cheap these days. We also ordered burgers, fries and onion rings. The burgers were good. They give you a nice big piece of meat on them and the bacon was good. The fries were okay and the onion rings were very heavy on the onion part of it. The pretzel was a standard pretzel but the cheese for it had either an alcohol or possible honey flavoring to it. The restaurant also does offer happy hour where the apps are half off which makes a big difference. Finally, the restaurant has a lottery machine, darts, a slot machine and some table board games. Overall, I liked the place and would return.

They had the perfect glaze with a nice crisp on the outside, weren't overcooked, and were so tender but not falling off the bone without being overly fatty. Easily some of the best ribs I've ever had. The mac and cheese was good, but it was spicier than I could handle. It would be nice if there were a non-spicy option available.

Fairly unassuming from the outside... with dark tinted windows too... it is worth the adventure to unlock a wonderful date night! S/o Big Burrito Co. that runs this restaurant and many others in Pittsburgh... we visited because they send you a free entree (up to $30) as a birthday reward! The interior is stunning. Elegance achieved! With long booth seating weaving between the tables, upscale decor, and yes... window tints that make it always feel like date night inside. Our waiter was phenomenal from clearing the full table set between courses, wiping off the crumbs between settings, and just genuinely enjoying his job and making every detail matter! We enjoyed the: - Free Bread Service - a warmed focaccia with a butter/oil blend infused with fresh salt and herbs! Such a great start to a meal - Glass of Chianti Classico - probably our favorite red wine! A perfect red blend that's not too sweet/not too dry and the scent alone should be bottled as a perfume - Little Gem Romaine - upon first bite, it seemed bitter, but once you enjoy the full accompaniment of Parmesan shavings and bread crumb, it really is a perfect starter and base layer for a night of carbs - Fusilli - fresh handmade pasta with a delightful vodka sauce perfectly tossed to coat every noodle and don't worry the listed Calabrian chili is not seedy or spicy but just and aspect of the depth of the sauce. The amount of chive was overwhelming, but it was able to be picked off carefully to level it down. A half portion was the perfect size for my wife's meal. - Basil Spaghetti with Grilled Chicken and Prosciutto - even the waiter said ordering two meats was a POWER PLAY, but for anyone who hasn't had prosciutto and chicken paired with pasta... he wasn't lying! A thoughtful basil infused pasta with a very rich garlic sauce and heirloom tomatoes roasted to the point of rupture. If only the prosciutto had been crisped, I would have found my favorite new Italian pasta dish! We will definitely be back! Thankful for such a gem!

The inside is fairly small with tables on one side and chairs lining the other. As an FYI, the chairs are fairly narrow because of the arm placement, so if you are a larger person, it might be uncomfortable. The menu is simple. They have wings (and a variety of sauce options) but I didn't order or try them, so I can't speak to that. They also have two different fry size options with about 12 different options for the dipping sauce. Some were standard (mayo, ketchup) but they also had unique flavors like curry ketchup, mango mayo and andalouse. I ended up with the mango as my included choice and got an additional side of the andalouse. The fries are cooked to order, so it can take a bit (I imagine when they are busier they might have some precooked) but they were cooked to perfection. Just the right amount of crisp and salt. But the dipping sauce is what really makes the experience. If you order to go, you don't get the fun, traditional Belgian fry cones which I understand (because how could they be packed efficiently to go) but it was a tiny bit disappointing. There is a paid parking lot across the street, but there is also a lot of street parking in the area as well. This is definitely some place I will be back to visit!
