3.5 stars. The Finch is a rooftop bar and restaurant that is named after the Joseph S. Finch &…read moreCompany's distillery that was located in the building in the late 1800s. The bar serves cocktails, wines, beers, and mocktails. For dinner and late-night bites, the restaurant focuses mostly on small plates and shareables, including charcuterie, chicken wings, pizzetta, steak, and salmon. They also have a Sunday brunch that serves lox bagel, shrimp and grits, French toast, mimosa, bloody Mary, etcetera. My husband and I ate one lunch here. The best aspect of The Finch was its beautiful views of downtown Pittsburgh's skyscrapers, Monongahela River, and subway trains. The foods and drink were a mixture of quality, and my husband called them "garbage" (eek!). Here are my ratings for them. Berry Mint Spritz - 4 stars - This mocktail (I could have ordered it with alcohol to turn it into a cocktail) contained strawberries, mint, lemon, syrup, and soda water. All of the flavor had settled on the bottom of the glass, so I could have used a straw to mix the drink, but I did enjoy the flavors. Summer Crab Cakes - 2 stars - I received two crab cakes, and they were some of the worst crab cakes that I have ever received anywhere. They contained too much breading and too little meat. I did not even like the flavor of the cherry tomatoes on the side. I usually love crab cakes, but with these ones, I could take only a couple of bites, and then I had the waitress throw away the rest. Hawaiian Pizzetta - 4 stars - This small pizza consisted of four slices that had cheese but no gooey cheese-pull. Other toppings were BBQ sauce drizzle, pineapple, ham, and red pepper. I thought that it tasted good. Ember Steak Skewers - 4 stars - My husband said that the steak was not the highest quality. At least the chunks of steak, peppers, onions, and mushroom (we counted one piece of mushroom!) were marinated and seasoned nicely. The total cost for this one mocktail, three foods, and one soda was $79 *plus* a 3% credit-card surcharge, tax, and a minimum tip of 18%. We asked the waitress for a receipt, but she did not bring us one, so we walked up to her to ask for it again, and we did receive it.

This craft cocktail bar has the best deviled eggs and macaroni & cheese! So good…read more They do a nice cheese plate as well as a good whipped ricotta too. You can even get an Isaly's Chipped Ham Sandwich!! That's a must for any true Yinzer! Their cocktails are definitely unique and standout from other craft cocktail bars. I'm a fan of the Amethyst and the Peridot. The decor is dark, cozy, and romantic with exposed brick. The service is friendly. Really like getting to stop by when I'm back home visiting from Austin.

How have I NEVER reviewed this Victorian voodoo, NOLA, speakeasy-style lounge?!? It's one of my…read moremost favorite places in all of Pittsburgh. Located just in the back of Dr. Tumblety's specialty shop (behind a bookcase of course) it boasts Victorian romance, intrigue and mystery with its handsome furnishings and accessories. Everything screams early-1900s. The craft cocktails are next level as is the service. The drinks are curated with house-made spirits. They also have stellar mocktail options. I've been here for cocktail tastings, burlesque shows, and other events.

Super fun spot tucked away inside a curiosity shop and right next to a small distillery…read more The atmosphere is Victorian/goth. Lamp lighting, fancy tablecloths, lots of fabric. For the drinks, they use their own spirits. Their menu has something for everyone, including strong drinks, sweet drinks, and mocktails. I've never experienced a wait--and the bar is decorated with pennies!

The Nashville Hot was perfect and had a great backend kick but that Nobu... that's the one you want. Spicy mayo, eel sauce, jalapeños. Insane Tied for 2nd best wing I have had. An absolute perfect cook on the wing and the sauces are immaculate. Cajun was my favo, then the buffalo parm. I do not like BBQ Wings or habanero. I fucking loved their bbq habanero. The burger ??? That was just a "alright let's try it" and absolutely rocked us. Idk if they have a charcoal grill back there or what but that was bbq cookout style on steroids with the perfect cook The cheese logs. Mozz, provolone, and Parmesan. Perfect blend with a perfect breading The Star of the show. One of the greatest bites I've had. This motherfucking CRAB RANGOON FRIES. Everyone needs to try these. Just got her and get these if you don't like anything else on the menu. All loaded friends should have waffle for the base now. Can never change my mind. Perfect for scooping and you want it for those ice cream scoops of cream cheese Man... I can't wait to come back to this one. The entire staff is awesome. Owners, runners, bartenders etc. TONS of TVs so if you wanna come for games this will be a great spot for that. Good size bar, few high tops and booths in the back. Has a nice outdoor seating selection as well

Either way, I found myself walking into Scarpaci's more than a few times. Locals seem to love this place but you know what they don't love? The standup comedy "show" that takes place in the corner of the front room. The "crowd" couldn't even muster up a courtesy laugh for the comics. Seriously, it was one of the most comfortable experiences for me and most certainly the comics too. I mean, some people couldn't even turn in their barstools to watch... maybe that was the comedy? I don't k now. Drinks weren't too cheap but aren't going to break the bank either. I was bummed that we missed the cheap wing night! People seem to like the wings and so do I. That will certainly be on the agenda for my return trip! See you sooner than later Scarpaci's.

Swing and a miss for me. Reservation for Easter 11:30…read more Greeted by the bartender with Indifference and seated in the back table for four. Rap music playing at a fairly high level. Our server was super nice and took our drink orders despite us not receiving any drink menus. I was craving a Bloody Mary so that is what I ordered. Looks like they offer flights of them too after seeing a post on their tv screen but he didn't ask me if I wanted to try or what sort of bloody so I guess I got their standard. It was delicious (charged extra for Tito's without me requesting). Ordered a special of the day (California Benedict) and it did not have avocado as advertised. I didn't realize right away so kept eating. The poached eggs were fully cooked so dry and very thin/bland hollandaise sauce. No side of potatoes or anything. Roasted red peppers were just standard diced red peppers from what I could tell. Tasteless. Dud of a breakfast. My daughter really liked the strawberry French toast and my wife said her frittata was ok. My meal was $16 and that bloody was $10 plus upcharge so that's why the low score. My wife would give it a 3. I don't plan to make a return unless it was for their pizza or wing special. Bummer

Wow! I love Sloppy Joe's!…read more Today, my wife and I are in Pittsburgh for the first time in our lives. This evening we took the Monongahelia Incline up from Station Square to Mt. Washington. Mt. Washington is a hip neighborhood with a great view of the city. We stopped in Sloppy Joe's when we heard live music as we walked by. It is a small dive bar with friendly locals and reasonably priced beer. If I ever return to Pittsburgh I will seek this place out!
