    Wonderful flavors. We are very selective with restaurants in their taste and preparation versus cost and experience. Morcilla is definitely in our list to return to.

    Amazing experience. Attentive, friendly staff- they are pleasant, communicative towards customers and to each other, and seem to truly enjoy being there. This time we had a few of our favorite dishes, as well as some new ones, and they were all exceptional. Get the oxtail! Very clean. Eat here with friends, for business, or a date night, as it’s good for any occasion. Our favorite spot in Pittsburgh- we’ll be back!

    Morcilla was great! We sat at the two seats you can reserve at the end of the bar, our favorite place to sit. You can really see what is going on and get the vibe at those seats. The Lamb shank dinner for two was amazing. Great Wines and service.

    Morcilla has been my "go-to" restaurant for a special meal ever since it opened. Last night was every bit as good as always. I tried some new things and they were delicious. The Gildas were tasty little bites to start the meal. I always order the octopus which never disappoints. On this visit I tried the Sunchoke and Crab Gratin. It was rich and well balanced without any fishy taste. Lynn's Gin and Tonic is my favorite accompaniment to any meal, an addicting blend of citrus and aromatics quite different from the usual gin and tonic.

    Went to celebrate getting engaged and had a wonderful experience yet again, our server Greta was very knowledgeable and super personable!! The food is absolutely astounding and I highly recommend the Ox Tail and Pulpo a la Plancha and for dessert the Goat Cheese Flan is a must have. 10/10 will certainly be back again!
