Happy to see something open in the former Stack'd spot! They have an outdoor patio with umbrellas, and have made the inside of the restaurant very cute. Service has been mediocre both times I've been there but I assume they are just working things out in the early stage of being open. Food is tasty and fresh. The plantains were my favorite part of my meal. They have happy hour specials (half off apps with a few exclusions) and other daily drink specials. It's nice to have a new restaurant in the neighborhood! read more

Buenatarde Tequila y Mezcal - Chicken tinga tacos with cilantro rice and plantains - Latin American Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

This was my first time visiting and the staff were really attentive and friendly. It was a gorgeous day out so having the option to sit outside was really nice. The menu has something for everyone and I was feeling for something light, nutritious but flavorful and opted to build my own bowl and it was so good. I highly recommend. read more

Whatta pleasant surprise tucked away on Ellsworth....AND - the closest to authentic Mexican we've found yet (of course, we haven't mounted an exhaustive search yet!). Husband & I started with yummy guac & 2 salsas. I really loved the green salsa. We then ordered shrimp tacos. Pretty tasty - a good aioli on them and slaw. The double layer of corn tortilla was a bit much for them, tho I know why they do it. The plantains were AMAZING - seriously, the best I've had in ages. The corn - meh - and I had pretty good black beans and cilantro rice. The ambiance is quaint and colorful. The service friendly. We'll definitely be back. read more

Good. Very nice, inviting space with a friendly staff. I appreciated the slightly moderated but still festive decor both inside and out. The menu seems to list an almost overwhelming number of options for both sides and toppings, but the flexibility in crafting your own experience certainly isn't all bad. We ordered takeout, and the experience was excellent. The salsas and sauces were fantastic: I would recommend any one of them. The food was good for what it was, but was heavily dependent on sauces to get the flavors to pop. That may just be the nature of the cuisine. The salad bowl was somewhat light on lettuce and more of a bowl than a salad, but the toppings were still good. All told, this seems like a fun destination for a casual build-your-own style Mexican cuisine with a nice atmosphere and pretty good food. read more

Really fresh and tasty Mexican food. The pricing is a little different, with items featuring a "base" price and then an additional charge based on protein/add-on selections (I guess kind of like at Chopt or similar salad bar concept). I had the Horchata which tasted a bit odd but maybe that's just their recipe. Needed more cinnamon. Only disappointment was we saw they had a lunch menu on the website but when we arrived to dine-in we were told the lunch menu was for deliveries only. read more

I loved this restaurant! Great new addition to Ellsworth Ave. I came in around 9 for dinner and drinks on a Thursday, and there was plenty of seating available. The outdoor patio area has a few tables that seat four each, and there was ample seating inside as well. The restaurant was super cute with a very wooden/rustic aesthetic. I ordered ceviche which came with chips along with a mojito, and my friend ordered street-style tacos with pollo asado. The pricing was pretty fair ($15 for ceviche, $10 for tacos) and the food was really good (and photogenic too!). The servers were very nice as well. Highly recommend checking this place out! read more

Buenatarde Tequila y Mezcal - Street tacos - Latin American Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Beware of pricing and what you are delivered. We ordered beef nachos listed on board at door for $8, and listed in restroom as $8 during Pirates game. We were delivered nachos grande that were $12. Didn't realize this until the bill was received, though they were very good and substantial. It is plainly written on the menu, but all tacos, bowls and burritos may change price according to the protein you add. Again, it is stated so not a surprise, but it is misleading when looking at reviews and pricing on yelp to see "$10 street tacos" that actually start at $14 and up. This is not a complaint, but a heads up to anyone expecting to pay less. There is now a credit card convenience fee added to bills paid with credit/debit cards. This is common at many restaurants now, but my complaint is the tip guide printed at the bottom of the check includes those fees and tax as well. I understand this is a guide but very misleading. Including these added $4.38 to my $43.79 bill. Service was very attentive though, so. Not a complaint but again a warning for all dining out. The rest of our dinner was average. One of us ordered the street taco with tinga chicken and one ordered carnita burrito. The portion in the taco looked larger than the burrito. We liked the beans and rice served with the tacos much better than the small salad with the burrito. read more

Efficient, kind service, and my order was executed perfectly, including my annoying instructions and substitutions. The veggie fajitas were delicious. I would happily return. read more

Good atmosphere. Great service. Mediocre food. Did not like the carnitas at all in the street tacos. Pollo asado was good. 2 bad margaritas, one of which was the house margarita. read more

This is a great local spot. We always build our own burritos. Great margs as well. Would definitely recommend

Nice spot to meet friends for happy hour! Our waitress was so attentive even though it was packed. They were so accommodating to us when it started to rain and immediately moved us to a table indoors . We tried a variety of drinks from beers to margaritas. All were great. read more

Fantastic restaurant. Vegetarian friendly. Great guacamole. It's Central American-inspired food - black beans with cotija cheese, plantains, etc. Fish tacos and veggie fajitas were excellent, and the tortillas were tasty and homemade. In the top three of Latin American restaurants in Pittsburgh for me. read more

Buenatarde Tequila y Mezcal - Street Style Tacos Fajitas Made to Order Guacamole - Latin American Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

We're so happy Buenatarde opened. Within the first 9 days of them opening, we've been there 3 times because we love them so much. They're the same owners of El Sabor in Lawrenceville/Bloomfield, whose food is fantastic, and this location is very similar. Great drinks, great happy hour specials: half off apps except ceviche and made-to-order guac, $6 mojitos, and $7 house margaritas. Everything is fantastic from their quesadillas, ceviche, burritos, queso, guacamole, and ALL of their cocktails. Henry and Andres are great and always provide amazing service. Love the ambiance there as well: rustic and Spanish vibe. Still a couple of small kinks to work out which is expected of any new restaurant. Can't wait to go back again! read more

I had high hopes for Buenatarde, and loved that it was close by. My hubby and I went and it feels like there are some kinks that they need to work out. We started with the chips and salsa, and added the black bean dip. When the black bean dip came out, it was white and the consistency was like water, and it had 3 black beans floating in top. I thought surely this was an error, so I asked the waitress and she said "that's the black bean dip." I tried to take a bite and it was so bad - it was like eating dirty water, I ended up doing something I never do-I sent it back. We ordered tacos with yuca fries and street corn. The yuca fries came out cold, and the street corn had an odd flavor, that I couldn't put my finger on. I wanted to request hot sauce or salsa, and waited, but the server never came back to check in. So I ate the tacos without salsa or hot sauce, and just ate a couple of the cold yuca fries. They got 3 stars because it was a lively day and the server was sweet. Otherwise the score would likely be a 2. With so many great Mexican places nearby, I'm not sure we will come back. Maybe I'll give it one more try to see if they have worked some things out in 6 months. read more

Overall, this is a nice new spot on Ellsworth! The patio is great in the summer. Drink specials are available daily and during happy hour. The service is quick and the staff are friendly. The fajitas are big enough for two (to share or leftovers!). It's definitely not a cheap spot for drinks or food, but it's good, reliable, and the food is very customizable. read more

The restaurant is amazing! We sat outside. The menu was intriguing. My margarita was great. My husband loved his chimichanga and I opted for a burrito! Both were amazing! The waiter was attentive. I would love to go back when I visit Pittsburgh! read more

We love their happy hour! A great deal with strong drinks and delicious apps. Excited for patio season!

Very fast service and great for lunch . Vibe can be better but it serves its niche. Moral of the story; nice, convenient place with good tastes. read more

Buenatarde Tequila y Mezcal - Chicken Quesadilla - Latin American Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

We are so glad that we ordered from Buenatarde's catering menu for our family reunion. Each guest made a point of telling us how much they were enjoying the food. As the hosts, we can tell you how much we enjoyed working with Buenatarde. Ordering on-line was very easy and convenient. There are multiple options to customize your selections. The food, itself, was well prepared and just as fresh as when we have eaten in the restaurants. Additionally, it was packaged so well that laying it out for a buffet was a cinch. We wanted to add additional items on the day of our dinner and the staff was very accommodating. They had everything ready to go when on time and just as we ordered it. I will certainly be returning when we have another event. read more

My husband and I came once when it first opened and had such a positive experience. The food was good, drinks were top notch, and the service was warm. The owner made a point to check in. Due to hectic work schedules and life, we recently made it back. The ambiance is beautiful. We were looking forward to trying the pork belly tacos and enjoying a late dinner. We sat at the bar and were the only ones there. There was a small amount of people and a number of workers who stood idle, anticipating quick and warm service. Upon sitting down, the young lady at the bar didn't say anything and stood there occasionally making drinks, on her phone, and sitting idle. A nice gentleman came over and asked us for our drink orders and we ordered 2 cocktails which he made immediately. Another 10 minutes went by and I had to ask him to put in chips and salsa. We waited 5 minutes for chips and salsa. I asked the female bartender for a shot of the Cotigo. She motioned for the other bartender. She was sitting on her phone at the bar. He poured the shot and walked away. A few minutes later a gentleman walked in and sat at the bar. He was immediately served by the female bartender a glass of water and asked how she can help him. We asked for the check and left. It was disappointing because knowing food service, they were more than able to accommodate us and there was no effort. It was disappointing. read more

Bad service the bartender on Thursday night is the worst. He's the biggest guy there and because he's big he is in control of everything and me from being from California. I come out here to enjoy your evening and he made a very difficult and I hope you guys fired the guy cause he does not make your bar look good. read more

Buenatarde Tequila y Mezcal - Tacos with grilled tofu - Latin American Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

This place is a real gem; not too big or too small with an attentive, knowledgable staff. You choose burrito, bowl or salad and then the ingredients, dressings, protein. Best thing: these are not mushed together to be indistinguishable--they are presented together on the plate so each can be tasted on its own. Fresh, distinctive and absolutely excellent. Really one of the best meals I have had in Pittsburgh--and I eat out a lot. Our server Erica knew each item, advised us well and helped make it a great evening--even though we did not win trivia. Top-notch place. read more
