    We had a lovely honeymoon dinner with them on our first night in Pittsburgh. My salmon was so tender with crispy edges, and my husband’s filet was perfectly cooked. And they surprised us with a delightful dessert I had never had before (pavlova), which I will now associate with them forever.

     Truly it was a 5 out of 10 at best, I’ll be the first to say service was OKAY. Food was way overpriced for what you get, Bland pasta along with Bass that was way overcooked.

    Chicken was terrible. Fatty and overcooked. Potato starter was good. Spicy crab starter was a mess. Not sure of the intent. Bar drinks were good and waiter Scott was excellent.

    Great food and good service. A little slow to come check on us sometimes and to get the check to leave, though the restaurant was not too crowded. Enjoyed the pork tenderloin and beat salad. The cheesecake custard desert is a like a deconstructed cheesecake in a bowl. Interest and good textures, but a little too sweet. The Mon Manhattan was a simple and delicious cocktail. Love the decor and setting of the restaurant.
