Our menu is a mixture of familiar Pittsburgh foods (think pierogies, hamburgers, French fries) and French bistro classics (beef tartare, raclette, mussels), and seasonal classics that come and go throughout the year. We put care into our vegetarian dishes too, including making our own tempeh, falafel, and veggie patties from scratch. Menu items change frequently--usually every day--and reflect many long-standing relationships we have with farms and breweries in our region. In addition to reservations, we also have a thirty seat bar that is first come, first serve. We don’t know exactly how old the bar is, but it’s at least seventy years old (probably older) and very cozy. Our friendly bartenders are here to make something you like.

    Our experience was perfect. They knew we were celebrating an anniversary and added a few special touches to our dinner to recognize that. They walked us through the menu and options with it being our first time visiting. The food was absolutely incredible and I can't imagine finding anything of that quality anywhere else. You definitely get what you pay for; with that being said, this is a restaurant for special occasions, and it will be a while before we are able to return.

    Our family enjoyed the whole experience. The entire brunch buffet, the servers and the atmosphere were outstanding. The choices were plentiful, the food was replenished often and the carvers and and other station personnel were friendly and helpful. This was our grandson's choice to celebrate his 21st birthday. What a celebration it was. Thank you for providing us with such an excellent experience.

    Our waitor was very good (Marc) and the food was pretty good. The chopped salad was very good, and the dressing made it perfect. We had the Orecchiette pasta and was very good but was served only warm and should have/could have been warmer. The restaurant is nice and it's good to go into the City of Pittsburgh to have a good meal and enjoy City life.
