Streets on Carson is such a cute concept. The space is amazing, and it's filled with a ton of graffiti like art, depicting South Side. I'm a fan of the menu (especially the Brick Chicken Chlebicek, which is an open faced chicken sandwich with liver mousse on top), and I think that the concept of foods around the world is really amazing and a good way for people to try food without actually having to leave the zipcode. The staff is always super friendly, and the drinks are always super strong. The wait can be a bit long, so make sure to call ahead for reservations! read more

Walked in on a Sunday afternoon around lunch time. The place was empty. A few people trickled in after us. The decor was interesting but definitely looked better in photographs. We sat at the bar and the bartender greeted us promptly with menus. My friend got the pepito and I got the confit wings. The pepito's bread-to-meat ratio was way off, it was mostly just bread. The duck fat poutine fries were sooo underwhelming. Probably the worst part of the meal. They were cold, soggy and all of the ingredients that made them "poutine" were at the bottom of the bowl. Definitely not worth the upcharge (that we weren't informed of). The wings had a decent flavor but were falling apart. I get the appeal there in theory ("the meat was so tender it fell off the bone!"), but I don't want a wing to fall apart when I take a bite. Overall, an OK experience, but I probably wouldn't go back. read more

Decided to stop by for brunch this morning. There weren't very many people when I arrived at noon, and I honestly wasn't expecting much. Boy was I wrong. I had the chilaquiles and a side of potatoes and they were spot on! read more

Wow. Finally, a place in the Southside that has great food AND isn't over priced. You could go to one of the stereotypical, yuppie establishments and pay $10 for buffalo chicken dip or $14 for a burrito or you could come here and pay that, if not less, for delicious and unique food! When I came here my boyfriend got the special (a Cuban) and it was so flavorful. I ordered the Tapioca, inspired by the Laranieiras Market in Rio de Janeiro. It's basically like a taco but not with mexican flavor profile at all. You can pick what's in it. But that's the best way to describe the way it is served. The shell is made of tapioca flour so it's soft and slightly chewy. A very unique and welcome textural food experience. I ordered the one filled with duck confit, caramelized leeks, caramelized shallots, roasted garlic, smoked Gouda and drizzled with balsamic glaze. Wow. It was great. We also split the bone marrow. I have only ever had it once in a very fancy restaurant. This tasted almost exactly the same and was only $7!!!!! and we paid an extra $1 for more toast. But honestly, it was so good we couldn't believe we only spent $8. And the drinks and cocktails are on par as well. All around a very, very, very welcome place for the Southside. I recommend it to everyone, especially those who are more adventurous eaters looking for something unique and fun that won't hurt your wallet. We also found out that the restaurant is owned by a young couple who had this great idea for a food-truck concept that turned into an actual restaurant thanks to the opportunity of this location. Knowing it's a local, family-owned restaurant makes it all the better. Take a break from the places in Southside all owned by the same group and give this place a shot. You won't be disappointed. read more

Fantastic place. Servers are attentive and awesome. Drinks are unique and tasty. We love the portions of food we get and try to come here every chance we get. Love the art as well. read more

I've wanted try this place for awhile. It's in the mix of so many cool things to do in the South Side. I popped in and it's ordered takeout. The menu is fairly eclectic and focused on mostly small plates, fresh soup (new type daily), and sandwiches that serve as entrees. I ordered two small plates - pork spring rolls (think shredded pork, aioli, and vegetables) and jerk chicken skewers with coconut rice. The spring rolls were excellent and very big. Honestly it's way more filling than one would expect. The jerk chicken was surprisingly good as well. Good level of spice (about a 3 on a scale of 5), very tender, however less filling than the spring rolls. The coconut rice was less impressive. It was mushy and didn't really stand out. Then again, I'm not much of a coconut rice fan anyway. I would definitely return. I imagine the ambiance, particularly during a happy hour or weekend night is probably pretty cool. read more

Streets is a great place to go if you're looking for a diverse menu. I love all of the different styles of food and there seems to be something on the menu for everyone. The prices for their dishes are very fair, the sandwiches are huge. I had the duck confit tapioca and it was delicious. The portion size was perfect for me and I shared some with my boyfriend as well. The special drinks were great, we had the gin basil smash and the Doberman, I would recommend both. The staff was very friendly and helpful when explaining the menu items, I will definitely go back! read more

5/5 objectively the best food on carson street

Everything I have ever eaten here has been great! It is also run by some pretty cool people. I would recommend anyone go here and support this business. read more

Haven't been here in a while but so worth it! Food and drink were so yummy and Alison was a great server

This was some of the best food I've ever had! I'd highly suggest the Steam Buns and Pan Con Chicharron. Incredible!! read more

This is the best meal I have had in a long time. I love the atmosphere, the menu choices, and the staff is very friendly. I will definitely be back for more poutine fries. read more

Love this place! Menu is an array of "street foods" from around the world so it's perfect for friends wanting to share a variety of small plates. Staff is friendly and helpful. And bar is well stocked and generous pours. Only downside is on sports nights ... particularly Penguins ... crowd noise can over the top. Ask for the window seats and enjoy the people watching. read more

First time visit here and everything was great. Cool atmosphere and the food was absolutely delicious. Would definitely come back again, and again, and again. Had the Arancini (rice balls #1), Chorizo flatbread (close #2), and the Vampiro tacos (#3). Yummmm! read more

Incredible food. Completely elevated bar food. My favorite food in Pittsburgh for the specified price point.

Great service and food. The arancini was most excellent. The spiced minced lamb on flat bread was mmm mmm good. Finally, the egg roll with sciracha ailoi sauce hit the spot. Very very reasonable and definitely worth it. There weren't many people in here, but didn't affect the food. read more

I have been here a bunch of times already and can't wait to go back again. They serve an incredible variety of dishes from all around the world juxtaposed against a funky graffiti decor and tables named after Southside streets. Everytime I go I try to order something new, but on several occasions I just couldnt resist the roast pork broccoli rabe sandwich. It is honestly one of, if not the best sandwich I haver ever had. On top of the menu, which seems to get switched up every couple months, they have awesome cocktails. Everything is pretty inexpensive and the food portion sizes, especially the sandwiches, are crazy big for how little you pay. read more

Streets on Carson is a spot just a quick walk down the street that my husband and I had on our short list of places to try. We popped in on a cold afternoon, so the joint wasn't too busy. The atmosphere is very modern and has a great Pittsburgh vibe with the tables sporting local street names. The staff was attentive and friendly and the beer and cocktail selections are impressive. My husband ordered a delicious stout, and I stuck with water due to my current 9 month commitment to sobriety. The menu is fun, offering different small plates and sandwiches from different geographic regions. We settled on the poutine and the Korean BBQ bao buns. The buns...on point. The poutine, while very tasty, was a little too salty for us (we're salty enough). The sand which selections looked fantastic with a filet / cheese selection representing pittsburgh that I feel I definitely have to try. We'll be back! read more

Great place & the food is very delicious!! The place has an awesome environment. Definitely coming back in the future! read more

When I found out that another French restaurant had opened in Pittsburgh, I was pretty excited. Cafe du Jour still ranks as one of my favorite restaurants in Pittsburgh so I was indeed looking forward to the opportunity to see what this place had to offer. I came in and was immediately greeted enthusiastically by the owner of the restaurant. Telling her that it was my first time in, she immediately asked and made a number of recommendations to accommodate my preferences. This has played out every time I've come in to try something new. In general, the menu is subject to time to time depending on freshness of ingredients and what's available. I'm glad the place hasn't gotten rid of my favorite sandwich here, which is probably the Roast Pork Broccoli Rabe. There's something just so wonderful about the roast pork and how it's prepared here. Incredibly juicy, fresh, and full of flavor. Oh and did I mention that all the sandwiches here come with fresh fries that also taste great to boot? The Pressed Fillet is a great second option, but really you can't go wrong with any choice you make. They have a wide selection of appetizers and sandwiches to fit basically any taste and I also really like how they tailor menu items to different cuisines that people might like. In general, this has always been a great place to go eat. Great food, friendly and enthusiastic owners/staff, and at reasonable prices. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area! read more

I would seriously give place a 5....still will do but their brunch menu is just that on a Sunday limited menu...but great offerings, very good for the dishes we ordered, great food & great service. Party of 3 for Sunday brunch. Very, very pleased with the food, service. Cheers to Sofia: a super server who took very good care of us, answered all silly questions...about beer & food. Food- our experience- very, very good.Very well presented & delicious. The decor is very Pittsburgh. Not over the top, sports oriented. For our experience, just a great place. My group not late night, are party people ( but the place has but does seem to have many fans, after work crowd!) For a lunch or a Sunday brunch I would suggest you go & enjoy. Food good, well prepared & good service. Bottom line: good service, food well done, prices are great. This place a silly, super restaurant that celebrates and supports the Pittsburgh spirit. read more

I've been here a number of times. The food is great but the service is sometimes slower then I would like. I love the pork egg rolls and that's what keeps me coming back! It's also a good place to come and watch a sports game, if you're into that. read more

IT's a super cute and casual spot with stellar food and great service!The lobster crepe was fantastic and I was impressed that they didn't skimp on the lobster! The jerk chicken skewers, served over traditional coconut rice and red beans with a green goddess sauce were some of the best I've had. It's definitely a great spot nestled among the long strip of bars and greasy bar food in the Southside. read more

Chef Matt Christie plays on a diverse culinary background to delight the palate and eye. A refreshing take on the best street food from around the world with Traditional French components at the core of each dish. What a fantastic addition to the Pittsburgh food scene! A must dine experience for any Pittsburgh foodie. read more

We went here for my birthday. The food was great + the staff was so friendly! If one hundred percent recommend this place to my friends!

Prob my new fav lunch spot for working in SS. Awesome unique door for great prices! The chicken sandwich, filet tips, and burger are all really good! Def worth a visit read more

Put this place on your "gotta try" list. Fresh new concept. Great local beer selection and the menu is out of this world. The food was absolutely amazing. Awesome husband and wife team that owns it. Very pleasant and welcoming. We'll be back again and again read more

The food is so incredible and it's such a great space. Best new spot in the city! Must try the steamed buns. Cocktail menu is spot on.

Streets On Carson is a great addition to the South Side. I came for a quick breakfast before a day of drinking on Carson because I've heard great reviews. Unfortunately, only the breakfast menu was available to us at the time. I ordered the chilaquiles, and it was my first time having his dish. You can't really go wrong with breakfast nachos. Good portion and lots of flavor. I can't wait to come back here and try some other teams on the menu. Until next time! read more

My husband and I both ordered cocktails. They were both so sweet, they were almost undrinkable. Almost.

I loved streets on Carson! My cocktail, 'cynar the great', was delicious. I ordered the huarache, which was like a shredded steak flatbread-ish pizza with chiles or salsa verde maybe. It was delicious! I wish I would have ordered more food, but I'll save it for my next visit. I'm so glad I came and can't wait to try everything else on the menu. The service, art, and ambience were fantastic! read more

Had great flavors and surprisingly excellent food. All 4 of us enjoyed it and we are some picky eaters. I would visit this place often.

This is an interesting and welcome addition to South Side's restaurants. It's small and casual and serves up some amazing food all around the concept of offering various street food from around the world. The best and most delicious surprise were the chicken confit wings, which were the best I've ever had. They're not Buffalo wings and they're not messy. They are big and tender, with the meat practically falling off the bone and a delicious taste that still has me craving them days later. The small plates all sound so good that we opted to share several rather than fill up on a sandwich and fries. The sandwiches sounded great as well and I'll surely be back to try some out -- as well as more small plates. I do wish that the sandwiches didn't come with fries so that more small plates could be devoured instead. We also tried the chicken samosas (delicious with their dill sauce), the lobster crepe (succulent!) and the tostada with lime chicken and avocados (the least impressive dish that we tried, but delicious nonetheless). Another standout starter was the artisan cheese, which paired three interesting cheeses that were all quite different from one another along with some other goodies including unique pinot grigio gellee cubes. The service is attentive yet appropriately casual. The decor and furnishings are somewhat minimalist yet comfortable. There is a table in each of two windows facing Carson Street, a bar on one side and tables on the other. In a bit of whimsy given the name and concept of the restaurant, the side of each table bears a street sign with the name of one of the neighborhood's streets, which have their own awesome backstory. My only gripe is that the wine and beer list could stand to be a bit more robust. I can understand keeping the wine options down with open bottles (for by-the-glass), but given the worldly nature of the food, more bottled beer options would be in order. read more

Drinks and service were great, and the place is very cute. We ordered the chicharron and it was superb. I would change the sauce it comes with for something a lil more sophisticated than cheese to keep with the vibe of the place but overall a great place! read more

Food is amazing, service is excellent, atmosphere is dope, location is convenient. No complaints, everything is perfect.

Five opening night stars for Streets. Good food, good service, nice people. With plates of Street food from around the world there seemed to be good choices for everybody. From a good hamburger, to whitefish, to a Polish chicken with radishes and chicken liver pate, all were fresh and served quickly at the right temperatures. The French fries are great and the poutine even better. Washing down the food with Western Pennsylvania beers or an interesting craft cocktail from the attentive staff smoothed out the evening. Good luck Streets. Keep your standards high. We need creativity and quality on Carson. read more

Can't say enough good things about this place, food, staff, atmosphere- all top notch. The pressed filet sandwich was amazing, ai craved it for days after our visit. Went with a large group and we tried almost every appetizer, all great! I love this place! read more

My wife and I recently got back from our honeymoon in Thailand and stopped in on a random Saturday night. I'd previously researched the restaurant and was interested in their street food concept. The atmosphere was unique with the Southside street signs posted around the restaurant. I ordered the Roast Pork Broccoli Rabe and my wife ordered the jerk chicken skewers. The roast pork was fantastic. It was perfectly seasoned along with the broccoli and it paired well with its crusty roll. My wife also enjoyed her jerk chicken along with her rice and peas. She agreed that it was quite comparable to authentic Jamaican food. We'll definitely be back! read more

Pressed filet... I say that first just in case this review is too long and you do not read on, that is the must have sandwich. Our waitress said it was her favorite and she wasn't just overselling it was fantastic!! We also tried the brocolli rabe sandwich which was good, especially the bread but still couldn't compare to the pressed filet. The sandwiches won't disappoint, and neither will the desserts (be sure to ask for a dessert menu) both the cheesecake and the grilled banana bread and panna cotta were delicious, particularly the grilled banana bread, what a concept. The only thing that disappointed were the appetizers, we tried the tostada and the yakitori trio. The tostada simply wasn't very good but was shareable, unlike the yakitori trio which has three meat skewers that are hardly enough for one, but tasty. Overall, the place is midway on the price range, apps $7-$10, sandwiches $11-$13 and desserts $3-$7, you'll be tempted to try several items so if you have to skip something pass on the apps, because the service is plenty fast enough to wait, another plus. Absolutely worth a visit! read more

Streets on Carson has an interesting and ambitious menu of small plates, sandwiches and desserts. Our table of five started with a varied selection of starters. Overall the prices are somewhat less than might be paid at a more formal restaurant. My top vote goes to the cheese plate with interesting accompaniments. The raspberries & blackberries were very sweet, the Pinot Grigio gel yummy, the candied walnuts welcome. The seeded crackers were perfect. While the honey was a good choice, the menu mentioned honeycomb and a small piece on the plate would have been nice. The bone marrow for $7 is a steal. The wings were fall-off-the-bone tender but a little heavy on the lime juie. Other dishes we had were the steamed buns, the rice balls (small plate of 3 which looks small but gave each of us a couple fork fills), and the pork egg roll. The pork with broccoli rabe sandwich was right on. The fries that accompanied were home made. My daughter enjoyed the Cuban. The only disappointment was the pastrami sandwich which was ordered by both of the gentlemen in our party. For $13, it was a far cry from a real deli sandwich. The soft rye was flavorless, and while the pastrami was smoky & tasty, it was a teeny layer of meat that didn't evencover the whole piece of bread. The mustard dressing was good. This one should be re- thought. We were so stuffed we couldn't indulge in dessert. If your Fido likes bones, be sure to ask for a container to take your marrow bone home. A nice touch was chilled waters placed on table in pretty wine and alcohol bottles, to serve yourself. A good place to go if you have a group with varied tastes. read more
