After watching the movie, "Mrs. Soffel," our group visited the Shiloh Gastro. The building was once the home of Kate Soffel and her husband, Peter, the warden of the Allegheny County Jail. The movie is based on the 1902 scandalous jailbreak that defined Kate's life. The Shiloh Gastro is known to be haunted. The paranormal activity in the building is often attributed to Kate. Patrons and staff have reported seeing the ghostly figure in a white gown. There has been other reported activity in the building, such as flickering lights, the smell of cigarette smoke (non-smoking building) and unexplained footsteps. Our group was there later in the evening and the only patrons seated on the upper level near the fireplace. We heard unexplained footsteps as no one else was upstairs or in the room with us. It did not scare us away, we knew the history. We did stay to enjoy the craft cocktails and mocktails. The menu included gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan fare which worked for everyone's needs in our group. Everything was delicious! *****The staff is exceptional!!***** They were attentive, knowledgeable and familiar with the history of the building. We will definitely be visiting the Shiloh Gastro again. read more

Went here on a recent trip to Pittsburgh. It was a pretty tough experience. Started with our server seating us and then explaining that they were out of a few things. Normally I'd say this isn't a big deal: two entrees and an appetizers. It happens. But the list continued to grow throughout the night (read on intrepid Yelper!). She left to grab some waters and came back about 15 minutes later. And then dashed off again. Finally put our orders in (was told then they were also out of some sodas and another appetizer, again it happens... but to this degree?) and waited for our drinks and food. And waited and waited and waited. Got our drinks 45 minutes after we sat down; importantly the place was not busy. During that time we were revisited once to be told they were out of another entree that some people had ordered. So some orders had to change. Appetizers took a full hour to show up. Entrees took another 30 minutes. Asked for some condiments - "we don't have that." Look, I get it restaurants have days when people call in or don't show up. Restaurants run out of stuff. But this was excessive. We were rarely checked on even to be given an ongoing apology just to let us know "hey I know this sucks, I recognize it and I'm sorry." We ran out of water (they bring a big bottle and you're on your own to refill it, and once that ran out we were just out of luck). If the food or drinks were really exceptional then some of this gets washed away. Unfortunately the food was just standard bar fare. It wasn't special. It was epically "serviceable." I do not recommend going. You're going to be far better off just taking the trolley back down and going somewhere else. read more

Nice summer outdoor seating in a sweet little Mt Washington pocket. Hot chicken salad is good.

Our waiter was Fantastic! His name is Stefano. He was very friendly and knowledgeable in the wines. The food was very yummy. We sat outside it was a beautiful evening. read more

Returned for a second visit and received excellent service! Food was delicious and presented beautifully. We enjoyed sitting outside on a gorgeous Spring day, loving the vibes of a great playlist curated by the owner! It was nice to find designated parking available. Highly recommended! read more

Shiloh Gastro - Leaving no leftovers! - New American Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I had a great time here! The waitress was very friendly! I got the vegan wings, with the Koran BBQ and tajin flavor, which were delicious!! Also got the falafel platter. For dessert, I got the skillet with ice cream on top. It was soo yummy. All the food here tasted fresh. It was so cozy inside as well. Only complaint is that I wish there were more vegetarian items on the menu. read more

We stopped in on a rainy Thursday night for a post meeting drink and a snack. It's so inviting with the fireplace on the first floor dining room, and this time we were at the bar, which is nice with stationary bar stools with swivel seat tops. There's also a couple tall tables in the room. The bartender was perfectly pleasant and helpful as my party enjoyed the chance to catch up in conversation. The pierogies were crisped just right with sautéed onions! read more

Picture it: it's a beautiful fall Friday night and you're working here when the worst possible thing happens at 8pm -a couple walks in and wants to have dinner. Evidently that's how Leah felt when my husband and I walked in for dinner tonight. How did I know her name? Because we stood for so long waiting to be acknowledged that I read the table map on the host stand 15x. Dan. Michael. Leah. After being rudely "greeted" with an explanation that they were "cleaning up," asking us to sit at the bar (we didn't want to sit at the bar), and "it's going to be a few minutes" (to which we said okay no problem), we continued waiting. Finally we decided to just leave and on the way out we passed Leah who still appeared to be having the worst day of her life. I let her know we'd do her a favor and leave since we seemed to be majorly inconveniencing her by being present and her reply was "okay sure." Such a shame I can't actually review the food. I'm curious when we should visit that won't be such a problem for an establishment in the restaurant business... By the way -we simply went down one block to Shilo Plate & Pour, got the last table outside (it was packed!) and was able to enjoy live music and an amazing waitress. read more

Stopped by for a late night bite. We had originally walked into another spot, but vibes were off. Walked into here and vibes were much better. Even though we walked into pretty late, service was great. My kid loved his burger. My wings (I think something sriracha) were delicious. Savory and cooked perfectly. Would definitely recommend and visit again. read more

Food was ok. I wanted to love it but it was lacking flavors they described on the menu. I had the pork belly bon mi and husband had Ahi tuna tacos, only had 2 slivers of tuna on it, plain cabbage and very little sauce. Both were lacking a bit. we may try again, we enjoyed eating on the deck. read more

Shiloh Gastro is a hidden gem atop Mt. Washington, offering scratch-made contemporary comfort food in a laid-back, relaxed setting--making it a perfect stop whether you're a local or just visiting the Mount. The ambiance is welcoming with both indoor and outdoor seating options, a full bar featuring bar stools and high tops, and even an upstairs area with additional dining space and a private room available for events. The staff is incredibly sweet and attentive, enhancing the warm, inviting vibe of the restaurant. They also run several fun weekly specials: Happy Hour all day on Mondays and again Tuesday through Friday from 4-6 PM, with deals on drinks and appetizers. On "211 Tuesdays," those who live or work on Mt. Washington receive 25% off their meals--a great local perk! And every Wednesday, enjoy half-off mac and cheese--a comfort food classic. From their new spring cocktail menu, I tried two standout drinks: Hibiscus Margarita: Sauza tequila, Cointreau, hibiscus, fresh lime juice, and a salted rim--bright, floral, and refreshing. Light My Way (Ultraviolet Daiquiri): Maggie's Farm rum, crème de violette, lavender simple syrup, and fresh lime juice--smooth, aromatic, and unique. For starters, the shrimp and crab stuffed mushrooms were a hit--baby portobellos filled with a rich mix of crab, spinach, and cream cheese, topped with garlic butter shrimp and balsamic glaze. Flavor-packed and satisfying. Next up was the strawberry caprese salad--a fresh spring mix tossed in balsamic vinaigrette, with red onions, diced strawberries, fresh mozzarella, basil pesto, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. It was the perfect light and seasonal dish. For the main course, I tried one of their new menu items: stuffed shells filled with chicken, spinach, tomatoes, onions, cream cheese, mozzarella, and Parmesan. Served with garlic bread, this dish was indulgent, fresh, and absolutely delicious. I ended the meal with their cinnamon roll bread pudding, served warm with vanilla ice cream and caramel--comforting, decadent, and the ideal sweet finish. I can't wait to return and explore more of their spring/summer menu. Shiloh Gastro nails the balance of comfort and creativity--definitely worth the trip up the Mount! read more

Can't believe I have never made it here before. Big fan of this area of Mount Washington and I've heard so many good things about this spot in particular. It's nice that they have their own little parking lot, and if it's full there is always street parking or a number of public options such as a big lot just a couple of blocks away. It was an unseasonably warm day in late October so we sat on the outdoor patio and enjoyed their adorable Halloween decorations. We both ordered the mac & cheese, which was about as perfect as mac & cheese gets. Very cheesy and made with the right kind of pasta. It's available with a lot of add-on options such as proteins or veggies, too. Also ordered side salads which were very good, and I thought the dressings were noteworthy as at least some of them seem to be housemade. For example, there is a lemon honey vinaigrette and an apricot vinaigrette; I ordered the latter over my usual honey mustard and it was delicious. Finally there were the drinks; there were lots of fall specials and I seriously considered the flight of four mini versions of local fall beers. In the end I couldn't pass up the pumpkin espresso martini and that was a very good choice. Our server didn't hesitate to offer suggestions, was prompt and checked in often. This is clearly a neighborhood favorite, we saw plenty of groups coming in to grab drinks only, as well as groups coming to eat full meals. There were a lot of excellent looking food and drink items to try and I look forward to putting this spot into my regular rotation. read more

Food here never disappoints! Probably my favorite place to get food within the Shiloh street strip of restaurants. We went on Tuesday and because we live in Mt Washington we were able to get 25% off our meal because they have "211 Tuesday's" so anyone with proof they live in the 15211 zip code gets 25% off! Wait staff is always super great & it's not super cute inside however the deck seating outside is so nice in the spring & summer! read more

We had reservations. We were promised a window seat with a view. The view was a garbage can. The stuffed chicken and "jumbo" crab cakes were terrible. The crab cakes were the size of a half dollar. Didn't eat anything and still paid the full bill plus tip. It was dirty. Even the drinks tasted off. Never again. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE. The food, the staff, the drinks, the atmosphere. It's the full package. We go here often and try to order different things each time. We have never experienced a bad meal. I love their burgers, their salads, their pumpkin sangria, their chicken. It's all good. I recommend it highly. The other thing I really like is that they have options for gluten-free and vegan folks. This way you can go with all of your friends and everyone will have something to eat. read more

We stumbled upon this great neighborhood spot while enjoying the views from Mt Washington, and boy are we glad we did. Gastro Burger was one of the best burgers we've ever had. Wings were good, great beer list, solid pricing. No complaints. read more

Great cocktails. Bangin kale salad. Nice attentive people w/out being the focus. Quiet Sunday with the right lighting and above all. CLEAN! Well done. read more

Food: the food was really good! Lots of vegetarian and vegan options. Also notes for other dietary restrictions. The pierogies were one of my faves. Drinks were fine - a slightly larger selection might have been night. Service: the server was doing her best and was very attentive and friendly. She made sure we got everything we wanted and our drinks weren't empty. Ambiance: it's a sports pub and that's pretty much it. Very chill and homey. A little loud. Was able to watch the football game which was lovely too! read more

Went with my niece because of the vegan options and it didn't disappoint. The mushroom toast was a tasty appetizer to share. I had the mahi sandwich and subbed onion rings, all quite good. My niece loved the stuffed pepper. The cocktail menu was creative too. I loved the Shine on You Crazy Diamond. The service was friendly and attentive too. We enjoyed a nice walk along Grand Ave afterwards. The place has a feel of being just pub food, but it's actually a pretty creative menu. We'll be back again. read more

Shiloh Gastro - Shine on You Crazy Diamond - New American Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Absolutely delicious and amazing spot. I enjoyed both of the items I tried out from this place quite a lot. The location is also pretty nice. They have many of the American classics but they elevate them to another level. I tried out their pesto veggie melt and pierogi cheesecake. The pesto veggie melt was delicious. It was loaded with lots of fresh and tasty ingredients like cheese, spinach, mushrooms, some carrots, and other vegetables. They also include some sort of butter on the sandwich. It might have been a touch too much butter for me, but still, excellent. The bread was fresh and crispy too. They included fries with the sandwich as well, but they were just alright. Not bad, just not memorable. The pierogi cheesecake sounded like a unique dessert. It was very, very good. The portion is enough to share definitely. The inside is creamy. It is strawberry flavored but does taste a bit artificial. Still very good. They serve it with incredible strawberry ice cream that adds some coolness. Would definitely recommend this dish. All in all, highly recommend this gastro. High quality food for sure and a solid location. Definitely try the pierogi cheesecake. I'd come back! read more

3 days ago Great beer selection, good cocktails, lovely service but forget the food. It is ALWAYS so hit or miss. The menus hardly ever change seasonally and the stuff on the menu is always so inconsistently prepared. I don't know if the cook is drunk half the time or if they just go through different cooks often. Their prices are way too high for the quality, or lack thereof when it comes to the food. Their "specials" are lame as is their happy hour. Also, not sure what the deal is with the owner/manager, he often seems so angry or annoyed ‍ He doesn't know how to manage his annoyances and it shows in his actions and face. There are never buybacks or a sense he gives a crap about his patrons. Think he's the reason food is so inconsistent here, guessing he makes his cooks reheat food instead of making it fresh. Great place that needs better management, food and cooks. Several better places on Shiloh if you're after food. Won't be back. read more

We went with a larger party (9 adults)- our server Peyton was very friendly and worked quickly to get our drink and meal orders. The fried pickled tomatoes are a must-have. The mocktails were outstanding as well. We had the pork schnitzel and bratwurst which were part of the specials and their in-house cheese for macaroni and cheese was so good. read more

Great place for happy hour (4-6 T-F)! They have a bunch of $6 small plate apps like a small version of the regular poutine, wings, mozzarella sticks, and nachos. Roasted red pepper hummus was decent but lacked flavor. They serve it was awesome warm pita and celery carrots and cucumbers. I suggest adding a little bit of hot sauce and salt. Poutine is very good! The gravy was exceptional for Pittsburgh. Lots of cheese as well. Perfect size if you don't want to gorge yourself on fries. I've heard their fish tacos and loaded mac and cheese are great so I will be back! Service is always awesome. The one owner, Gene, that is here all the time is very nice and incredibly attentive. I was also very impressed with their cocktail list. Didn't expect the place like that to have such inventive cocktails... Gin and absinthe (Kate's Romance)? Yes please! Parking blows but that's everywhere on Mount Washington so suck it up and deal haha read more

Very inconsistent. Went about a month ago for the first time and felt like I finally found a new place. The burgers and flatbread were amazing and the sweet potato fries were fresh, delicious. Everything was so good that I bought extras to take home. It was so good that I went again a few days later. This visit was terrible. We sat for over a half hour before we were given water (should have left). I found a hostess and they forgot to tell a server we were sat. It took another 1 hour and 15 min from that point to get food and the restaurant wasn't even busy. Our cheesesteak sandwich was overcooked and gristle meat. The ceaser salad was inedible, drenched in dressing and bagged croutons (I expected homemade since most of the menu is). Terrible experience. It became comically bad how poor the service was. We went back a third time, hoping the second was a one-off, since the first time was wonderful, I wanted to give it another try. This time was even worse. No lie, we didn't receive our dinner for 1.5 hours AFTER our appetizer. A party of 12 was sat after us, were served their meals and ate before we even got our meals. And when we did, 3 out of 4 side dishes were the wrongs ones, cheeseburger without cheese, bacon burger without bacon, burned chicken sandwich. I am really disappointed because it has the potential to be good, but the wait staff is terrible twice now, which I assume is the reason everything is wrong and bad timing in the kitchen. I can definitely say I'll never go back which is unfortunate because I really thought I found a great place..which is so hard anymore. read more

We came across this place after our hike in Emerald View trail . The drinks here are so good. I had the peach sangria and it's so refreshing not too sweet.,it was perfect. Their happy house menu for $6 bites was good. We only tired the hummus place and it's was very satisfying. It came with veggies and really good best I ever had fried artichokes. I will get this again. Love the out door space. Great place to hang out for a drink. Service was excellent our server helped so much in suggestions of beer. Excellent place! read more

Great food. We were seated by a wonderful hostess(sir) he was very kind, friendly and knowledgeable.

Shiloh Gastro is the perfect spot on the Mount to grab a bite and drinks with friends. The staff is very friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is very laid back. They have options to sit at the bar or dining room, as well as a large patio area and even an upstairs for private events. I've already been here a few times since they're opened, and the food, drinks, and service have been consistently great! They make the BEST dirty martinis, and I could rave on and on about the salmon BLT. Portion sizes are generous and you can sub your side of fries for many options (of which, I suggest the sweet potato fries). I forgot to mention Shiloh Gastro has a great weekday Happy Hour, too, that includes discounted apps and a couple bucks off all the draft beers! read more

These fries. I dream about these fries. I think they're called wing fries now? Get them with Buffalo sauce and chicken. I could eat these for every meal. Mt Washington is the best palace to take visitors and we almost always make a stop here as well, specifically for these fries. Their other food is good too! Mac n cheese is on point, hummus and veggies are great, beer is great. Service is good too! Never had any problems. Good indoor seating, a little more intimate inside if you're not in the bar area. Outside seating is great when the weather is nice. read more

Shiloh Gastro - Buffalo Wing Fries - New American Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

got seated immediately then proceeded to wait 30 mins for a server to acknowledge us. Finally ordered waited another 45 mins for the food to come out just for the wings to be as cold as the celery and carrots on my plate. And finally when we asked to speak to management, the manager proceeded to tell us how because of the amount of customers strolling in, at the time it was around 7, that everyone at the restaurant would be suffering, the customers the workers and the management. I've worked food for years and never once had been told that the customer should be suffering whilst paying for their food and service. personally this place should be out of business and the manager that had the audacity to make such a comment shouldn't work food/service. read more

Big fan! My friends and I came here for dinner and everything was great. This was my first time, but my friends said they come often and love the food. Nice atmosphere and great service!

We dined at Shiloh Gastro on a gorgeous fall day! It was wonderful to have easy parking, and a great city-street feel after a long day of searching for parking in Oakland area. City views are steps away, along with a fun/terrifying ride on the funicular. Food was your typical pub food - we enjoyed the Totchos, Gastro Burger, Fish Tacos and Buffalo Chicken Mac. All highly recommended. For dessert we enjoy the Cinnamon Roll Bread Pudding -- OUT OF THIS WORLD deliciousness. Our server was friendly, but service was a bit slower than we hoped. Definitely plan to return to this spot on future visits to see our son at Pitt. read more
