    Paprika chicken
    Elizabeth F.

    We made resys months ago, excited for an Austrian-Hungarian concept. We arrived and were greeted. We were sat upstairs by the railing, which have an interesting view of the downstairs. Service was kind and friendly, though not particularly attentive. We weren't checked on as the courses came out. Food wise: - Cheese dumplings: It was flattened and fried, not what I had expected. The burnt taste overpowered the dumplings. - Potato salad: Good but wasn't served warm as traditionally done - Pickles: Carrots and beets were nicely done. I found the potato a bit overpowering - Radish: Good flavor, fresh radish - Paprika chicken: Glad it was two pieces, making sharing easy. There wasn't much spatzle and our chicken was a bit cold. It had been sitting for a while before it made it to our table. Overall, it has promise. Maybe working through a few things or an off night. Curious to try again to see if it is better.

    Great wine selection and explanation of the wines. Loved the location, ambiance, and service.

    STUFFED CABBAGE - Rice and mushroom stuffing, tomato sauce, sauerkraut, sour cream
    Karen H.

    Titusz is a new Austrian and Hungarian restaurant in Lawrenceville and we had to try every single food item they offer! It's where the old Merchant Oyster Company used to be and there's a small bar, some tables on the ground floor, and some other tables on the mezzanine. They only take reservations for up to groups of 6. What you need to do after you snag that coveted reservation is to get three friends to come with you and also order everything because you'll want to try it all!  We enjoyed their well balanced and unique cocktails and tried almost all of them. All our food items were so flavorful and it's hard to pick favorites but I would have to say the fried potato bread, dumplings, soup, chicken, and sorbet were my top picks! Pro tip: pay the $4 for the second order of their delicious bread and use it to soak up the sauces from your entrees.

    This restaurant is a nice addition to Lawrenceville. The Erdapfelsalat (Austrian potato salad) was perfect but the Beer Bratwurst needed something to make it a go-to. Downstairs is a bit crowded and noisy. Will try for balcony reservations next time.

    A welcome addition to Lawrenceville! Hungarian fine-dining with lovely seasonally inspired Eastern European fare, with a balanced menu containing plenty of vegetarian options. The restaurant space is open, with soaring ceilings that give the small space a less claustrophobic feel than most similarly sized Pittsburgh restaurants. The service was excellent here, though we had an early 5pm reservation. And they are surprisingly kid friendly!

    Duck leg with apricot reisling marinade

    What a great addition to Lawrenceville! Titusz brings a unique Austrian and Hungarian concept to the burgh. Plus the space is bright, airy, and beautifully designed with two levels of seating. The cocktail and wine list was impressive, with fun NA options. I tried the NA dill dairy drink which was super light and refreshing. We started with house bread, then tried the kaspressknödel (cheese dumplings) and langos (fried potato bread and tangy cheese topfen). The langos was a standout, though I wish the dumplings came with more pieces. For mains, the stuffed cabbage (with rice and mushrooms) and roasted duck leg were both amazing. The duck leg was our favorite because of the sweet and tart apricot reisling reduction that made me want more and more with each bite!! We finished with the rich chocolate chestnut cake (Titusz torte). They were also very accommodating to my toddler, and the staff were incredibly kind. Can't wait to come back for more!!

    Wow! This place has easily became one of my top 10's in Pittsburgh. This Austrian/Hungarian concept is an awesome addition to Lawrenceville. We were able to snag a reservation when it first opened. From the start of dinner everything was great. The service was attentive and friendly. The food was incredible. Very lovely dishes and different flavors than I've had a lot. The dishes are simple, yet elevated and exploding with flavor. Some of my favorites were the Kaspressknödel, Liptauer, Csirke Paprikás, Walleye and Violet Sorbet. The cocktails featured tons of Austrian/Hungarian liqueurs and flavors that went perfect with our meal. I can't wait to see this place thrive! The overall vibe was cozy and relaxed.

    After Dinner Drinks

    We absolutely loved this place! The kitchen nailed every plate -- from the Kaspressknödel (which Tyler rightly steered us toward pairing with the Pickles over the Salat and Sorrel Soup) to the Walleye, which had a phenomenal sear. Bobby and Abby out front were genuinely warm, welcoming, and accommodating; they made sure we were comfortable and taken care of all night. The interior refresh is absolutely stunning. A fantastic opening, and we can't wait to go back!

    3.5 stars. The Finch is a rooftop bar and restaurant that is named after the Joseph S. Finch &…read moreCompany's distillery that was located in the building in the late 1800s. The bar serves cocktails, wines, beers, and mocktails. For dinner and late-night bites, the restaurant focuses mostly on small plates and shareables, including charcuterie, chicken wings, pizzetta, steak, and salmon. They also have a Sunday brunch that serves lox bagel, shrimp and grits, French toast, mimosa, bloody Mary, etcetera. My husband and I ate one lunch here. The best aspect of The Finch was its beautiful views of downtown Pittsburgh's skyscrapers, Monongahela River, and subway trains. The foods and drink were a mixture of quality, and my husband called them "garbage" (eek!). Here are my ratings for them. Berry Mint Spritz - 4 stars - This mocktail (I could have ordered it with alcohol to turn it into a cocktail) contained strawberries, mint, lemon, syrup, and soda water. All of the flavor had settled on the bottom of the glass, so I could have used a straw to mix the drink, but I did enjoy the flavors. Summer Crab Cakes - 2 stars - I received two crab cakes, and they were some of the worst crab cakes that I have ever received anywhere. They contained too much breading and too little meat. I did not even like the flavor of the cherry tomatoes on the side. I usually love crab cakes, but with these ones, I could take only a couple of bites, and then I had the waitress throw away the rest. Hawaiian Pizzetta - 4 stars - This small pizza consisted of four slices that had cheese but no gooey cheese-pull. Other toppings were BBQ sauce drizzle, pineapple, ham, and red pepper. I thought that it tasted good. Ember Steak Skewers - 4 stars - My husband said that the steak was not the highest quality. At least the chunks of steak, peppers, onions, and mushroom (we counted one piece of mushroom!) were marinated and seasoned nicely. The total cost for this one mocktail, three foods, and one soda was $79 *plus* a 3% credit-card surcharge, tax, and a minimum tip of 18%. We asked the waitress for a receipt, but she did not bring us one, so we walked up to her to ask for it again, and we did receive it.

The atmosphere alone is worth a visit. The drinks are definitely crafted with care and have a lot of complexity, but with only two bartenders working, it took quite a while to get ours. Not the place to go if you want quick service or are grabbing a drink before another event. My biggest downside is the price point--most cocktails are around $17. They're good, but at that price I can really only justify having one. Note: They do not have food, just snacks like peanuts. Overall, amazing ambiance and well-made drinks, just expect slower service and a higher bill.

Very impressed by their craftsmanship and experimental flavors. There's not many places in this area that even attempt to do that. I love the speakeasy vibe. Super cool entrance and fun comfortable lounge upstairs. It's a fantastic place to go as an intimate group. But it's kind of small to take a group of more than 4 friends. Cocktails were made surprisingly quick even on a busy night. Everything is just really great about this place. Except for maybe the price lol but at least you're getting what you pay for in a good way

It's cute but crowded with plush seating. I can't imagine being here on a busy night, it must feel like there's no breathing room. Service was fine. Our order was correct and servers were friendly. The best part about this place is the cocktails but don't expect them to be strong. My drink was absolutely delicious but with the mood effects of a mocktail, meaning nothing. I ordered two because why is this almost $20 with no buzz in sight, are we not a lounge? The menu was plentiful though I think the chef may be a little off about the origins of some of the menu items- just be Greek, friend, it'll be okay. I didn't try the pizza, which is almost half of the menu because I wasn't impressed by the small plates. How can you get pickled cauliflower wrong in Pittsburgh. That should be a sin. The hummus was okay but could use a little more ancient influence... like maybe 4,000 years worth, idk. Overall, I wouldn't be back and wouldn't recommend. It's trendy in it's ambience but doesn't deliver anything better than 25 other spots along the same street. AVVA in Aspinwall is a better option. I came here based on reviews by Elite's and this place was incredibly misrepresented.
