She was on top of everything, keeping our drinks full, checking in at just the right moments, and making us feel truly welcome. Service like that is rare!

I do have to go back and try the Reuben because I saw a number of people eating it and it looked really good. Some diners are slipping, but not Joe's Rusty Nail!

BEST SMASHBURGER IN PITTSBURGH…read more It would be hard to convince me otherwise. As soon as you step into the unassuming, corner burger spot, you feel instantly teleported into a retro spot. The colors, dining furniture, even the menu transports you back in time and feels so cozy. Order at the front with the cashier and drinks are bottled in the cooler next to it. Very small dining room but they are some tables outside. Street parking is pretty available outside and fries are a must. You truly can't do better than this!

I stopped by here earlier tonight with my wife and kids. This wasn't my first trip to Lincoln…read moreAvenue Brewery and was probably closer to my fifth. The inside is bi-level, with the bar and some tables on the first floor and a smaller seating area upstairs that can accommodate around 20 people with three four-tops, a two-top, and a six-top. There was a TV showing the World Cup, and you could also see some of their brewing equipment. The red brick walls, red tile floors, Edison bulbs, pressure gauges, and large circular water shutoff valve all combined to give the space an industrial vibe. As I often do whenever I visit a brewery, I decided to go with a flight. At Lincoln Avenue Brewery that consists of four beers, and I chose the MoJo JoeJoe (Coffee Blonde), SNAFU (NEIPA), Aye Matey (Gose), and Grizzly Bear (Grisette). First up was the MoJo JoeJoe. It was nice and light with a pronounced coffee flavor that carried through the middle into the finish. I actually enjoyed this more than your typical coffee stout because the coffee was more prominent while still allowing the beer itself to come through. Second was the SNAFU. It started out smooth before plenty of hops took over and lingered through the finish. Next was the Aye Matey Sea Salt Lime Gose. After the IPA, this beer was refreshing with a good lime flavor. I got the sourness up front, followed by the coriander, before finishing with a strong lime note. It was one of the better gose beers I have had thanks to its balance of tartness and citrus. Last but certainly not least was the Grizzly Bear Grisette. It started crisp but then became surprisingly malty and slightly sweet through the middle and finish, which isn't what I normally associate with a grisette. Even so, it was enjoyable. Out of the four, my two favorites were easily the Coffee Blonde and the Gose. They are completely different styles, making it tough to pick an overall favorite. For dinner I chose the Reuben with potato wedges and smoky bacon aioli while my wife went with the chimichurri portobello flatbread. My Reuben was described as house-cooked corned beef, sauerkraut, homemade Thousand Island dressing, and Swiss cheese on grilled marble rye. My wife's flatbread featured a chimichurri sauce base with portobello mushrooms, roasted red peppers, and mozzarella. The timing of our food was a little odd. My wife's flatbread and my son's pizza arrived with my Reuben, my potato wedges came out a few minutes later, and then my daughter's grilled cheese followed about five minutes after that. My Reuben ended up being good. The marble rye was nicely buttered and toasted, there was plenty of tender corned beef and sauerkraut, and the sandwich was satisfying overall. I do wish there had been a little more Thousand Island dressing, though. My favorite part of the meal was actually the smoky bacon aioli that came with the wedges. It had a great smoky bacon flavor that kept me coming back for more. My wife thought her flatbread was good, although not quite as impressive as some of the other meals she has had here. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. Both my wife and I enjoyed our meals, but the beers are really what stand out here and make Lincoln Avenue Brewery worth the visit.

You instantly feel welcome. It's a small place - only about 5 tables & 6 or so bar stools. Good ole fashioned diner breakfast food - egg dishes, a few bowl bfasts, pancakes, french toast, and a popular breakfast sandwich. My husband got the latter w/ sausage, egg, & thick American cheese on Mancini's bread - and enjoyed it. I got the "Home Fries Supreme" bowl with over easy eggs. It was good - not great - with a ton of potatoes, thick American cheese, grilled onion, and a lot of crumbled bacon. My sis-in-law got french toast and said it was good - but her usual order of pancakes and scrambled eggs is better. You can modify your order however you like, it seems. The wait staff is so friendly. We really enjoyed ourselves. The cook even popped out to take care of 2 of his favorite regulars who won't pass by, apparently, without their bacon (see the pic). We'll definitely be back, though probably when it's warmer --- cuz yowza is it cold when the door opens for people entering/exiting. This place could really use one of those exterior tent-door things that pop onto the outside of the door!

Love the decor in the shop. There were many prepared food options in the fridge, as well as various cuts of meat/preparations of it. We got two sandwiches, the cheesesteak and the marbella. I dont think we ended up with the correct order because we didn't end up with a cheesesteak, but did not realize until we got home. I'm positive that if I went back to the shop they would've remedied the situation, but I didn't feel it was necessary! The sandwich we did end up with was good as well, unsure which one it was though. Very fair prices, and our dog was so happy we brought him home a bone as well! Looking forward to coming back and trying everything they have to offer.

The business practices whole-animal, nose-to-tail butchery that respects the animals. Even bones and fat are used. My husband and I shopped here one time. On a Saturday afternoon, we drove around the neighborhood for 30 minutes before we found a paid parking spot. Other customers were inside the store, but the employees in the store served us promptly and politely. We saw cuts of beef, pork, lamb, and poultry as well as sandwiches, soups, spices, maple syrup, etcetera. We did not see as many unique meats as larger butcher shops sell. Prices were OK. We bought beef skewers and cooked them at home. We thought that the quality of the meat could have been better, but we liked the juiciness and flavors.

It started in trying to go to the south side location but it was just a window, and I really wanted to experience the full outing so we doubled back to the strip and Larryville. Anyway - we sat down and were helped immediately by a very animated waitress with red hair? Place is very industrial - large signage and some tv's - kind of like a Buffalo Wild Wings. I ordered the double stack make your own with beef, regular bun, cheddar, bacon and burgher sauce. As my side I swapped for mac and cheese. The food came out fairly quick. The burger was VERY GOOD. Seasoned nicely, stacked high, and really just a solid burger. I added an extra side of the burgher sauce as well to dunk the burger in which was really good too. The macaroni was good - just wasn't hot. The cheese sauce was nice and flavorful, not bland at all Overall - I would come back here. And I would recommend.

They don't open until 4, but you can place orders online hours before then. Picked up food around 4:20. By time we got home, the fish maintained its crispness. I was actually quite impressed with how well it was prepared. Nice and flaky but didn't fall apart. The bun it comes on is well proportion with the fish. The only thing I could've went without, was the macaroni salad topped on the fish. However, the food here never disappoints. I'll be back.
