    No longer gate keeping!! This is my go to take out spot when I want an amazing to go meal/ too lazy…read moreto cook! Super dependable and the best Cantonese BBQ around. The menu is super diverse and very authentic. I got the braised beef noodle soup and the roast duck platter - usually my go to order. Place it at the counter and while you wait you can shop for your Asian grocery essentials. I bought one of the viral mango ice creams here along with tons of Chinese veggies and frozen dumplings and before I knew it my food was ready! Easy parking, although gets super busy on the weekends and staff is super helpful! Pro Tip: apply for their free VIP member card - it gets you exclusive, cheaper prices on many items. Tip #2, don't sleep on Asian grocery store seafood. It's almost always cheaper than other mainstream stores like Whole Foods and you're supporting small business so it's a win win!

    I've stopped here on multiple occasions. They are still filling out the store as of August 2024…read more It's more spacious than their store on Smallman and many other Asian groceries stores nearby. There are two entrances/exits that have check outs. There is a section with baked buns (pretty good and comparable to prices elsewhere that have freshly baked buns like those in Squirrel Hill and Mt. Lebo). I've been after work twice and most of the savory options are gone (cream bun is tasty and they add raisins to it), but found the savory options available on a Saturday afternoon before 1 pm (BBQ pork bun was a bit too salty). There's a good selection of items, though the produce section is smaller than anticipated. Cashiers are nice. Parking is available on site.

    Love Federico's!!!!!! They are known for their huge Italian…read morehoagie which is awesome but they have so much more to offer . Great selection of imported pastas , can tomatoes,and olive oils . All the Italian meats & cheeses . They make homemade breads daily and awesome pizza shells , the pizza in this area is awful so i always buy the 2 pack of pizza shells, some good sauce , " grande cheese " and pepperoni and make my own at home and its better and much cheaper than any pizza in the area .they have these awesome cookies that a lady makes and brings ti the store , i never knew this because they sell out fast as she brings them . I found this out one morning i was there when the cookie lady was delivering, the nut roll cookies this lady makes are unbelievably good . Do yourself a favor and try this wonderful family owned Italian store and if your lucky the cookie lady might be delivering while your there

    One recent afternoon, we chose to order a well known sub from Federico's. The sub was ready within…read morethe amount of time quoted. We picked it up at the back of the store and then spent some time browsing the aisles of imported snacks. The store is large, well organized, and well stocked. We got a few small containers of stuffed peppers for a side to our sub and they didn't make it back to the house. Everything was super fresh from the bread to the deli meats and the toppings. They slice the sub into manageable pieces for you which is super convenient. I think it's certainly worth the price because we had a big lunch for both of us and leftovers for under $20.

    This is a place where you need to be careful when you are buying produce. I was a bit disappointed…read morein the fact that they did not have a whole lot to choose from but they did have some unique melons which I had never heard of before. The current "in season" items right now are corn on the cob, tomatoes, peaches, and melons. There is a dairy case but nothing exciting about it along with a meat case. I wasn't impressed with the meats in it nor with the frozen cherries I saw. For the most part you can spend under $10.00 depending on what you get. I was blown away by the huge cantaloupes they had for sale. They were $4.50 each. Unfortunately when I got my selected melon home and began to cut it the juice ran all over the place and I could tell it was overripe. They do have items noted directly from farms. I ended up with a green pepper for $.25. Other peppers were a bit more. For corn on the cob you can get either white or yellow corn. I choose half a dozen white. They come prebagged and the one I selected had an extra ear of corn for free. I cooked one of those up when I got home and it was fresh and good. I was taken aback however when I saw they were selling overriped bananas that had started to turn brown. Normally I would find this type of thing in your regular supermarket but never in a place like this. They sell other things like popcorn and honey and jams to name a few. I was told that their greenhouse is currently undergoing transformation for fall so I really didn't get an opportunity to visit it. I asked about their other location in Cecil and learned that it was basically a nursery as opposed to a farmer's market. It is run by someone else in their family. The staff is friendly and helpful in explaining things to me. Credit cards are accepted on any order over $10.00. It is located on Bower Hill Road as you head towards Bridgeville.

    Great little road trip. Many unusual bedding plants. Found heirloom tomatoes and gorgeous pepper…read moreplants. Going to be digging in the dirt soon!

    After seeing posts online about this Farmers Market for quite some time, I finally made it out to…read morecheck it out this past summer! I stopped here around 1:30 PM on a Sunday in July for the second market of the season. The Carnegie Farmers Market is held right on E Main Street, and spans about a block or so. There is a parking lot on one side of the street, or there is plenty of street parking all around. Carnegie is relatively flat, so it is an easy walk to the market wherever you end up parking. Hours of the market are Sundays from Noon to 3:00 PM in July and August, and 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM in September. When we visited, there was a good amount of patrons around, but it was not overwhelmingly crowded. Many patrons had their dogs, so they are definitely welcome to the fun. There are a healthy amount of vendors, as well as businesses that line the street which are also open during the event. On the day we visited, there were nearly 40 vendors, in addition to the businesses in the area. Vendors range from farms, food stands, hand-made gifts and goods, alcoholic drinks, local organizations, and much more. The beauty of a market like this is that they will change weekly! Some of my personal favorites from this particular market day were Cox Woodwork out of Aliquippa, and the Mexa food stand. I also enjoyed the live music playing. They bring in a different musician/musical group weekly, so that is also something to look forward to seeing differently each visit. All of the different vendors will have different pricing, but I did not think anything was extremely expensive or unreasonable. There are select vendors that accept Fresh Access and SNAP, which allows dollars to stretch even further than they normally would! We ended up spending over an hour in the area, between the vendors on E Main Street and the surrounding businesses that were open. Markets like these create such a fun atmosphere and promote community. It was fun to walk around, browse, and see all that the market and Carnegie had to offer. I look forward to being able to stop here again this upcoming summer! This is a great market that seems to be growing in both size and popularity each year. Be sure to check the updates that are posted on Facebook by "Carnegie Markets," as that is usually how I find out the latest information on this one!

    This is a very cute and fun farmers market to walk around. There are quite a good number of vendors…read moreselling different products from fresh produce, cheese and dairy, to hummus and hot dog stands (with delicious kielbasa sandwich) as well as both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. If you are not looking for something to eat, but are rather in search of a cute gift there are also vendors that sell a selection of fresh, beautiful bouquet of flowers or small potted plants to choose from. There is a parking lot right where the farmers market locates, or you can park on the street as well. Most places will take credit card/venmo but I recommend having some cash, just in case.

    Overall really enjoyed this place. I think it is family owned - the owner and his ~10 year old son…read morewere sitting at the front of the restaurant.l at the hosts desk. His son took me to my table. The waitress was attentive and very friendly. I ordered the honey pecan crusted salmon and opted for carrots and broccoli as my side. The waitress brought bread and a garlic/oil dish to dip the bread in. The garlic/oil was so yummy, I could've just ate the bread without any dinner! I was also surprised to see I got a large portion of food when the plate came out! Most places these days you don't get much bang for your buck. The salmon was delicious, and so were the carrots and broccoli. My soda was flat and I asked the waitress about it and she fixed it. I ordered the flourless chocolate torte for dessert and liked that too. I wonder what the ingredients were, because there was a bit of spice to it that I couldn't quite place my finger on. The only improvements I think could be made are the ambience was loud. There was a large party in the dining room next to me and they were a loud family with children running and screaming all over the place (I understand this isn't within the realm of control for the restaurant). That itself wasn't unpleasant, it would just be nice if there was some strategic sound dampening. On their website I had signed up for a $10 coupon that never came in my email (not sure if I'm supposed to wait days for it...?). Another thing I noticed on their website is that they charge $10 for a split plate. I'm assuming this means if you come as two people and decide to order one plate of food but split it, they charge for that. That seems really weird. People shouldn't be charged for splitting their food, if that's what that is. They also charge you a transaction fee for using a credit card. Next time I'm in Pittsburgh I'll be coming back. It was nice to eat something that wasn't a burger and fries, since there are so many of those types of places in Pittsburgh.

    Dropped in yesterday around 5:30 and were promptly seated. The restaurant still looks much as it…read moredid when it was another restaurant by name. The service was very good with descriptions of the menu items that allowed us to make informed decisions. The stuffed hot peppers were as good as I have had anywhere. The sausage was spicy the way I like and the portion was enough to be an entree. Will go back just to order this again. There were four of us and everyone was very pleased with the look, taste, and amount of their meals. All of us had take-home which was packaged by our server. DeBlaze at 131 highlights the variety of very good restaurants to be found in Carnegie.
