About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
Casbah is a neighborhood restaurant and wine bar located in Pittsburgh’s East End. From the year-round garden patio to the dining room, from the cozy bar to the wine cellar, each visit can feel like a new and special experience.

Casbah offers a broad menu focused on northern Mediterranean-inspired cuisine from Italy, Spain, France and Greece that emphasizes local ingredients. All meals start with warm, house made bread from Eleven’s kitchen. A cheese plate followed by appetizers, a bowl of fresh pasta, or a four-course meal are all possibilities for an evening at Casbah.

Reservations are available up to 30 days in advance; we look forward to serving you!

    We had the burrata, octopus, and filet as well as a couple of cocktails and mocktails. All were fantastic and served by a fantastic team that made our experience utterly enjoyable and relaxing. Thanks so much, we'll be back!

    Great dinner again. We shared the olives and the mushroom soup and had entree's of the Ravioli stuffed with beef and the Orecchiette with chicken. Shared a pineapple tarte. All were delicious. Our serving team did an excellent job.

    Great food and service! The tuna tartar was excellent and the risotto served with the pork chop could have been an outstanding meal on its own...adding the pork chop was icing on top. The Branzino was fantastic!

    Need more vegetarian choices. Food was also very salty. I’ve heard so much about this place through the years and people raved about it, but I was honestly very disappointed. It was average at best.
