One of the best parts about coming here is sampling their rotating beers--there's always something new and interesting to try, which keeps me coming back.

Oak Hill Post's dinner service is absolutely incredible and you need to make a reservation NOW!!…read more I had high expectations because I loved their previous brunch service and I was not disappointed. We got literally one of each mocktail, starter, main, and dessert because it all looked so good and that's truly the right move. For favorites for each category, my fave mocktail was Among the Sunflowers, my fave starter was the stew (the umami flavor was out of this world), my favorite main was either the ribs or the duck frites, and my favorite dessert was the matcha creme brûlée. The inside is small so there's a limited number of reservations per night but it's cozy

Oh, how I love thee, Anthos! Let me count the ways!…read more Birthday brunch and a surprise visit to Anthos.....and what a wonderful surprise it was! This is a bit out of the way for us City dwellers, but it was absolutely worth the trip. From the moment we walked in, the lively atmosphere and energy of the place grabbed us. Such a great vibe, with the owners doing their thing and the staff bustling around making everything happen. We started with the trio of dips: hummus, feta, and tzatziki, served with olives and their delicious pita. Then came the spanakopita, which is definitely shareable, especially with a little salad on the side. And because every good brunch needs something sweet, we ordered the loukoumades. Savory + sweet = the perfect combination! Everything was just good!.......fresh, flavorful, satisfying, and exactly what you want when you're out celebrating. And of course, we couldn't leave empty-handed. We took home a loaf of raisin sourdough, which may have been the best decision of the day. A lively spot, wonderful food, great owners, and a staff that clearly keeps things moving. Anthos, I'm already looking forward to the next visit!

I visited Coffee Etc. recently for an afternoon pick-me-up. Since this shop is close to my house,…read moreand everything they have is so good, it is one that I find myself coming back to time after time. Coffee Etc. is a locally-owned coffee shop located in the heart of Castle Shannon. It is near well-known places such as Ice Castle and just down the hill from Myrtle Elementary. They serve traditional and artisan coffees and teas, along with an extensive menu of breakfast and lunch items. There is always a selection of desserts and pastries on the counter as well. It is right along the T line, so it is easy to get to both by vehicle and public transit. There is not a private parking lot, but there are spaces along the street out front, as well as ample Street parking options around and behind the building. I have never had to park too far away when making a stop here, often securing a space right in front. The shop has both indoor and outdoor seating options. There are two-person and four-person tables that surround the front entrance. Inside, there are low-top tables, high-top tables and couches to choose from. On the weekends, it can be packed in here in terms of seating. I usually am able to find a table, but just be aware in case you are coming during a peak time! Overall, the vibe is a comfy and cozy cafe. It is warm, inviting, and makes you want to hang out for awhile. I always love the in-progress puzzle that sits at the counter where drinks are handed out. You can contribute a little bit to the work-in-progress in your idle moments waiting for your order to be ready. It is also fun to see what puzzle will be there the next time you visit. Something cool about this place is their dedication to their faith. They have free Bibles available for visitors, and they host different Bible studies and groups throughout the week. On this day, I visited around 1:45 PM on a Wednesday in September. It was not very busy, but there were other patrons in the shop. I took a moment to look at the monthly specials on the board outside, and made my way in to order a drink. The staff here are always so friendly and kind, and so it is no surprise that I was promptly greeted when entering. I was between a few of the drinks, but I ended up deciding on the Kettle Corn Iced Latte, since that is not a flavor you see everyday for coffees. As it was not busy at this time, I only waited a minute or so from the time I placed my order to when I had the drink in-hand. My drink was very good! I loved the unique flavor of the Kettle Corn, as I had never had that in a coffee before this latte. I truly have never had a bad drink or food item from here, and this visit was no different. They have so many different flavors and sauces to choose from, you will surely find one to your liking. I typically get one of the features/seasonal drinks, but you are able to customize any which way you want. Their breakfast sandwiches are amazing here, so I have to mention them in this review as well. I did not get one on this visit, but they are made-to-order and the quality is top-notch. There are several sandwiches on the menu, but you can also customize your own. I recommend getting the Chipotle Raspberry Jam on whatever sandwich you choose. It is wonderful! Plus, the sandwiches come with a little cookie as a sweet ending to your meal. The pricing here is on-par with what you would expect from a local coffee shop. I am usually spending between $6 and $7, depending on the size. I will typically get a custom sandwich, which starts at $7.50. It is not off-base with what you would expect for a local shop. I do feel the value is there, since everything is so tasty and the staff are so friendly and welcoming. I always love coming to Coffee Etc, and I highly recommend you give it a try if you are in the area or are thinking about stopping. The atmosphere, homemade sandwiches, variety of drinks, and the cozy vibes keep me coming back time and time again. Plus, they are always having new and seasonal drinks to try, so there will always be something different to enjoy.

We weren't quite sure about the ordering at the register process. The menu offerings are on a chalkboard behind the register and the waitress was patient with us as we looked over everything. I ordered pancakes with bacon and coffee. The pancakes were just what you'd want when you think of pancakes. Good size, fluffy, and tasty. The three strips of bacon were cooked right, slightly crispy with a little chewy bite. The coffee was hot and kept hot with a frequent topper. Trolley Barn is exactly what you'd expect from a neighborhood place, everyone seemed to be regulars, and the decorating is very much a taste of a bygone era in a good way. Not really a diner, but definitely a casual place to get some good food. Staff was friendly, and my husband and I have definitely added Trolley Barn to our list of good places to get breakfast.

Loved it here. I…read moreordered the steak dinner and thoroughly enjoyed every bite of it. The steak portion was extremely generous with the perfect juiciness, perfect texture, and this amazing flavor. It went really well with the mashed potatoes and vegetables. I do, however, wish that the vegetable and mashed potato portions were a little bigger to match how generous the steak portion was. I loved my dish the most. I also really loved everything about the calamari. They could not have done that better and I can be very picky about fried foods. Tomato sauce was also super flavorful and they let us have another cup of that super delicious tomato sauce on the house. My brother got the shrimp Alfredo which is his go to. That also was really good and the shrimp was grilled to perfection. My grandma got a crab cake, which was tasty too, but I definitely prefer what me and my brother ordered. So yeah I thought the food was I would dare to say impressive and the service felt very friendly and professional

I don't normally eat gluten free pizza but I shared it with her and it was fine. The other pizza definitely had a better crust, but the gluten free was good. My Mom was happy, I was happy and my husband was happy. Thank you so much for making her day.

It was refreshing to see customers decked out instead of the usual pgh hoodies/sweats. In Mt. Lebo, we visited for Pittsburgh Restaurant Week ((summer 2026)) to try out their prix fixe menu and was not disappointed. You have the option to add on wine pairing for an additional charge. Started off the experience w/ warmed bread & whipped honey/chive butter that they bring for the table. Mellow & light. It was good. But to me, the bread crust was a bit too hard. Drinks menu displayed a varied range of crafted cocktails, beer, carefully selected wine & NA drinks. Husband had the Brown Sugar Peach Bourbon Mule- oh so good-- the peach puree offset the bourbon and it was ah-mazing! I had a cosmo- balanced & not too tart- I absolutely loved it! For dinner, husband ordered the Almond Chicken on Parmesan risotto & sauteed spinach. Seriously goood! The chicken was breaded then roasted w/ some flavoring & almond slices -- accompanied by a brie cream sauce, risotto & spinach. The brie cream sauce & parm risotto didn't feel like cheese overload ((thank goodness)), it was the right amount of sauce : cheese ratio. A must order dish. Prix Fixe Starter was Steak Tacos 2/order. Char siu marinated skirt steak w/avo-corn salsa, feta was unbelievably refreshing & light and the steak was tender. Really, really good!! Entree was Pork Medallions ((2)) on a bed of crispy poblano polenta w/ a side of sunchokes on a hazelnut watercress pesto; a blueberry maple glaze topping off the entire dish. One of the best entrees I've had the pleasure of enjoying. The pork was super tender & moist-- each bite was Umami to me. I asked the waitress if the chef was thinkin of making this a regular menu item and hopefully they would. Husb thought it was delish too. He ofc had to have a "few" bites to taste lol! Dessert was a Cremeux- a mousse/pudding like dessert so so sooooo good! It had crushed almond streusel & dulce de leche de coco sauce. Husb found it too sweet, but I cherished it. This entire meal & experience was magnificent for the both of us. Most def comin back again & again! Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Drinks: 5/5 Food: 5/5

Apparently,…read moreat one point, this restaurant was hopping and required several months in advance to make a reservation. Unfortunately, the restaurant closed and was bought by new owners, which is now known as Wild Rosemary Bistro. The restaurant probably can only hold about 50 people. They have a Supper Club prix-fixe menu that is served family style, which is a unique experience for guests. I brought my Supper Club to try out this place, and the experience was filled with both ups and downs. First, I had a rather large group coming, and they split up our group into 2 tables that weren't close to each other. I knew this ahead of time, so that was no problem. Our waitress was nice but the service was pretty slow for the amount of people in the restaurant. It was also very hot in the restaurant, and our group had to ask for ice for our water and ourselves because we were so hot. The meal started out with some sauce & ricotta focaccia. It was doughy and soft but very heavy and filling. It was a nice, added touch since it wasn't on the menu! Carrot & Fennel Soup: This soup was different and outstanding! The flavor profile was so good, and I enjoyed every minute of it! We also got some more bread in between courses. Lemon Cream Alfredo: This dish was very lemony and not overly hot like I would have liked. It definitely tasted like something I could make at home. Salmon: We got A LOT of salmon, but it was very dry and overly tasted like dill. Many people in my group loved this, but I was not one of them. Nutella Tiramisu: I don't like coffee flavor or Nutella, and I loved this dessert. It was so flavorful, and we got a very large portion! Overall, we paid $80/per person for this meal. We got A LOT of food and even had enough to take home. However, for as much quantity as we got, there was lack in the quality of the food. There were so many bread and starch courses, that we were ridiculously fool throughout the whole meal. We would have preferred less bread and more substance. The idea and concept for this restaurant is great. I really hope they are able to provide a better quality of food. If they do, I think this restaurant could really soar!
