I am a fan of the silver star Canadian & other ham varieties and often pick it up whenever I see it for purchase. If you don't, still worth the trip. I recently stopped to pick up some lunch meat. I noticed there were jenny lee bakery Christmas cookies for sale as well as some of the raisin bread. Also available was a n ice selection of mancinsi bread. The cookies really looked good. If I wasn't baking cookies this week I would have purchased. I noticed that there were fresh hot dogs for purchase and other sandwiches. Very friendly service and I cannot wait to return.

It has a fun mix of Philly sandwich shop energy with Pittsburgh hometown vibes. The menu is big, the fries were really good, and the sub-style sandwiches are loaded and filling. I went with the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich, while others ordered the Ultra Uncle Sam's Special. Portions were huge, so leftovers are definitely a bonus. They also have cheese sauce and ranch for the fries plus classic Coke products to wash it all down. Casual diner feel, big portions, and solid food. Easy spot to recommend if you're in Pittsburgh and craving a hearty sandwich.

If your a fan of old diner charm, good food set at reasonable prices then don't miss out! P.S. - Just make sure to eat in the diner so the fries are included with your meal.

Unfortunately for this fish, it was bland, overcooked, and tasted of old grease. The fries were seasoned so much that you were essentially eating spoon fulls of old bay. The wait was almost an hour past our pick up time. I understand being busy, but it might be more beneficial to reflect a more accurate pick up time... Strange Roots itself is a small space with nice outdoor seating. I'm not a huge fan of the beer here either, but the bartender was very nice and accommodating during our visit. I hope if you try this place you have a better experience.

We ordered 2 sandwiches at 6:10 PM, the wait was a little longer than anticipated and was ready at 7:00 pm. It smelled mildly "fishy" but it is fish after all. First impression, it did not appear as advertised. It was missing the sauce and lettuce pictured on the website. I took three bites and unfortunately, the fish was hard. It seemed over cooked which may have contributed to the time it took to receive it. The grease also tasted old. The Mac on top was again, overcooked. The French fries were cooked well, but they had so much old bay seasoning and salt it was difficult to eat. I wish this were unique to my order, but I was dinning with three others, all ordering the same thing, and we all had the same complaints. I did request to speak with someone in the kitchen but they said they didn't have time as they were quite busy. The brewery was full and outside seating was also starting to fill so that is understandable. The bartender at strange roots had us write our names on a piece of paper and said the kitchen will refund the meals. I contemplated ordering a burger instead but didn't want to wait again so we did leave to dine elsewhere.

Downey's House provided the local spot I needed. An ice cold Yuengling on draft went down very well, and while I didn't find pierogis on the menu, I settled for a phenomenal bowl of spaghetti & meatballs. Local marinara & meatballs made with the same recipe of the old Main Hotel that was in Carnegie for nearly 100 years. That bowl of pasta was SCRUMPTIOUS and just what I was after. I even talked my lovely wife into doing up her salad 'Pittsburgh style', which means adorning the salad with fries. And yes, it's as good as it sounds. Thrown in a protein like grilled chicken and that is a banger of a meal. Great dining area with a square-shaped bar and TVs with sight-lines in any direction. The service is friendly and helpful, and prices are probably lower than at some chain-y eatery that just makes your food via assembly line. It's local and sensational!

Other people at our table waited longer. Whoever reviewed the poutine fries as the best they ever had, clearly never had them elsewhere. The gravy was awful, there was melted cheese, not curds, and the fries aren't homemade. They were actually the worst I've ever had. The sandwich was a good size but just ok, nothing special. It took forever to get drinks refilled. I asked 25 minutes before we left and never got another. Once we finished eating our waitress didn't come back to the table. We had to ask others for drinks and the check. We originally went to play bingo. It was fun but didn't start on time and went all the way to 10pm.
