    Let's start by saying the theam and concept of this place I thought were cool. The bartender Bailey was great and did an amazing job. The food is typical bar food and it's ok... We stopped here on a whim just this evening. It's a shame but we will not be back. The experience of this evening has been tainted. There were 4 other "customers" at the bar and some type of pool league going on in the back. Upon opening the door we were met with blasting rap rap music spewing profanities. Typically I am not such a prude, but it was terrible. The same few terrible songs were played over and over. We sat at the bar as the back was busy with the Monday night pool league. The people sitting in the group at the bar were drunk and just being obnoxious. They were loud, banging on the bar and had zero care anyone else was there. They also some how had control of the tv remote that controlled the music as it was youtube. They continued to play songs like Carlie B and some thing called juice world. This was not the vibe in this place I thought it would be. They ruined our dinner and as quickly as I could eat my flatbread that wasn't really flatebread bread but still tasted ok..we left. The place also somehow managed to have a dank smell but then not a bad smell.

    Selling Fireworks in the parking lot. Best thing to go with beer, right? Lol

    We came here as one of the few places we went during Covid. I had gotten a Groupon for it, when we first came in there are a few people in the bar as well as a rather large dog that was semi-aggressive with both of his ears wrapped up and bandages. The guy with him played it off as he was just a nice dog but it frightened both of my children. The bartender was our server. Service was pretty good thing that she didn't come over quite as much as you would expect a server to but she had the whole bar to take care of as well. So our refills kind of went by the wayside being long in between when we saw her. Again she was fairly busy though covering the bar and taking phone orders and preparing to go's. All of our food came out fairly quickly. Everything was pretty hot with the mozzarella wedges being overcooked and the cheese being cooked right out of them. The pizza's took longer but came out piping hot and were absolutely delicious. We enjoyed the funnel cake fries, loaded fries, and the hot pepper cheese balls as well. Overall that experience was pretty good. The chicken parm sandwich I had was amazing! By far one of my favorites I've had anywhere. We came back with another Groupon called in for us to have dinner for pickup and it was all ready 15+. I minutes sooner than I was quoted on the phone. The bar had the AC blasting so everything was Luke warm at best checking it in the car and cold by the time we got it home. Very disappointed and it seemed like not being there they didn't care as much about attention to detail and freshness.

    I used Uber Eats to get a order today. Ordered 12 mild wings, cheeseburger with swiss and mushrooms with fries and cheeseburger with cheddar and bacon with fries. My swiss buger was great, very tasty. Could have used more mushrooms, and they forgot my fries. But very good. Cheddar buger was also very good, fried were very tasty, fresh cut. The wings were ok. Very crispy but very dry, not a lot of sauce on them. Will definitely give another try, hopefully I get my fries next time.

    LOVED our dinner at this place…read more We came here for dinner while visiting Pittsburgh. The first thing that struck me was the interior decor. Very industrial and moody with an open kitchen/preparation area that adds some intrigue. I do like to see the happenings of what's going on as someone with zero attention span. Service was excellent. George was fantastic. He kept a close eye on us without being overbearing. He anticipated what we might need so we didn't spend one second waiting to order anything. The menu is not endless or overwhelming which, presumably, allows them to focus on the items that are listed. I have decision panic so it was kinda nice to have less things to choose from. They asked if there were any allergies or dietary restrictions so I mentioned my vegetarianism. George went through the menu and pointed out the vegetarian options including what seems like it is vegetarian but isn't. They had TWO vegetarian entree options and fortunately the non-mushroom one was something I probably would have ordered anyway: pesto with walnuts, arugula, and a very generous amount of grated cheese. To start, I ordered the Brussels sprouts whichc I was warned had fish sauce. This was fine but nothing that blew me away. GF, on the other hand, loved this. GF ordered the wedge which was brought to our attention as vegetarian with the bacon on the side, which was her request. We ended up sharing both, a large part of that was because hers came out first and I couldn't wait but I'm so glad because the wege was FANTASTIC. The dressing? holy fuck pure ecastasy. The wedge was more like a filet shape which was much easier to eat. Who decided on the wedge shape anyway? The lettuce was so fresh and crisp and went wonderfully with that orgasmic dressing and breadcrumbs. Back to my pasta. Also delectable. Noodles were al dente. The sauce was creamy and packed that pesto umami flavor. The walnuts were a really nice contrast in texture. Everything about it absolutely fucking slapped. GF ordered the mushroom entree which came served on a bed of barley which, don't mind if I do, had a few forkfuls to "sample" for "my review". Again, so fucking good. Because it was my birthday, George provided a dessert (yuzu maybe?) that was served inside a meringue-esque igloo, creamy perfect balance of sweet and tart custard with some berry business underneath. Wonderful. I almost forgot their spectacular cocktails! Holy shit, literally they have a CORN CHIP cocktail that I could not pass up. It comes with two massive cornchips on top of a flavored foam. When you bring the glass up to sip, the cornchips are right in front of your nose and their aroma sets the stage for the drink which was STRONG. It wasn't as corn chip forward as I expected but I understand that flavor is probaly hard to create. For my second drink, I ordered the blue one which was refreshing, light, and really good. GF ordered a spritz which was gorgeous "it was good". For second round, I picked out some uranium thing that was very cucumbery, GF says, "it was good". I just read it outloud to her. "it's true!" Fantastic meal at a great place.

    Decor was impeccable, service was top notch, and the food was solid. Wasn't the biggest fan of the…read moreseasoning of the half chicken, but the cook on the chicken was perfect. Really liked this spot. The staff was great, the location was central, and its very upper crust. Great place for date night, drinks, and fellowship.

    One of the most authentic old school Pittsburgh natives and Steelers bars on the strip! The drinks…read moreare cheap, strong....and the bar is full of good vibes and great people. Not to mention, they offer semi-strong long islands for $4 all day, It's sort of a premixed concoction that's just okay in my opinion. Nothing to rave about...but enough to lure you in for price and continue to get you in for more libation. lol Lefty's is a nice and fun hangout spot for friends for sure.and a great way to get into the mix of Pittsburgh natives (people from the surrounding area). The bar is a pretty narrow space and gets packed pretty quickly, but it is a great space to watch sports and chat with people. There is not a lot of seating space as the space is relatively small, but it is still comfortable while standing. Although crowded, the bartenders are quick and efficient with drink orders. If only they sold food, this spot would be perfect. However, there are several shops and restaurants along the strip to grab a bite to eat. In all, cool little dive bar in the heart of the Strip District of Pittsburgh. Also a great vibe and place to meet up with friends for a few drinks or a pit stop while site seeing the downtown area. Stop by, get in and fit into the vibe of this place. It's fun and good times.

    Found this place during the NFL draft! Dive bar, good drinks and very economical. Service is cool…read more After a certain time they card and do a safety check. Thursday was a mixed crowd, good music, and you can order food near by and bring it in. Friday evening, came the regulars. Which means those who don't prefer out of towners. So I'm good on Lefty's on Friday night. I need good energy around me always. TV's with the games, upstairs and downstairs seating area. Small patio. If you go, go early, when the old heads are there.
