    The ambiance is wonderful, we landed in the bar after dinner and had a wonderful view of downtown Pittsburgh during Light Up night. We enjoyed the music. We celebrated a birthday and they customized the menu for our birthday guest, nice touch. We were disappointed in the quality of our entree. My wife had Halibut and I had the special, Stargazer fish. It was very dry. We had to request butter and sauce to consume it. To their credit, they did adjust our bill. I would give them another opportunity and go back because of all the other positive experiences we had.

    We celebrated our wedding here, just the two of us. Food, was unbelievable, the service and atmosphere were exactly what I envisioned for our wedding dinner and the lounge with live jazz music was the perfect touch. Michael T provided us great and fun service, but the entire staff was amazing from the time we walked in, to the time we left. Thank you to the Cioppino's staff for a memorable experience on our special day 🥰

    Solid food selection and delicious drinks. I wish the beet salad has warm buratta as opposed to cold. Short rib was excellent as were the crab cakes. Cigar bar is very relaxing and has a nice selection of drinks and cigars to choose from.

    One of the finest restaurants in Pittsburgh! The service was outstanding, the food was absolutely delicious, and let's talk about the atmosphere...perfect. This was a birthday dinner for a family member and it was a hit. Although this was my first time at the restaurant, it will not be the last. I will highly recommend this establishment to my friends, family and anyone that would ask for a restaurant suggestion.

    Food and service were great, but they place tables way to close to the jazz band. Nothing against the band; they were good, but I could not hear my wife from across the table.

    I visited Cioppino alone while in town for a Steelers game. I had the Osso Buco which was phenomenal. The food in general was excellent. I had great service both in the restaurant and the adjacent cigar bar. Well done.

    Anniversary dinner, great server, good live music, great view as sun went down, very comfortable. Food was really good. We have been to Monterey Bay Fish Grotto a few times lately and we liked Cioppino better in terms of accessibility, value, laid back vibe. Only thing missing was a Ham Hock Soup.

    Our first visit to celebrate my husband’s birthday. Sat at the bar to have a drink until our reservation and enjoyed the live music. Had an amazing dinner in the dining area with amazing service by Drew. His knowledge and energy about the menu made it very hard to select and entree because he made them all sound amazing. After dinner we went into the cigar lounge to cap off our evening. Everything about our experience was amazing! Shoutout to the valet attendant, the host that greeted us, the bartenders and our servers.

    The menu that we checked on open table looked great went we arrived the menu was changed. Very small we watched a couple sit down and look at the menu, Look at each other then get up and leave. Not a lot of choices. We used co eat here a lot but the restaurant seems to have changed and not for the better. we also waited 20 minutes between courses. The Cioppino was very good but was looking forward to the dishes that were posted

    Was not wild about the quality of the food.My wife and I had sea bass and thought it was all right. Our friends had lamb and said it was real good. his wife had Cioppino and did not like it. Had appetizers of brussel sprouts and some kind of fried potatoes which again were just all right. Bill for 4 people with a bottle of wine included was $400.

    The one thing we truly enjoyed was the ambience. We were sat outside and it was a beautiful night. The drinks were good, food was alright (a little overpriced for the value). Our server was very absent. Took 20 min just to order drinks. Probably won’t return for a while, but if I do I’ll just sit at the bar.
