    I am beyond grateful that this restaurant is open late! My flight was averted to Pittsburgh so there are many a stranded passenger here tonight And I didn't get to the Doubletree until 930 Olicio is the hostess with the mostest! She greeted me with a smile and seated me quickly. She also checked in with me a couple times throughout dinner she keeps very busy cheerfully cleaning tables and checking in with the servers to see how they're doing. Joe the bartender makes a perfect martini!! Next time I come here I will order the Dirty Player. A Tito's dirty martini with blue cheese olives! My server was Jennifer (Jenny V) and she is super sweet and provides excellent service with a smile. I love the collaborative effort as far as everybody pitching in to deliver food, clean tables etc. It was late so I didn't get to sample much on the menu I had soup at the moment which was chicken noodle and it was and hit the spot after a long day of travel. I also had the garlic Parmesan crispy wings and a fabulous glass of Sean Minor Cabernet. As an added bonus I received a 25% off coupon via Yelp for checking in!!

    Feeling trapped? Don't worry because Champion's is good for your food and beverage needs! I stay at the Doubletree near the airport on most of my trips to Pitt. It is convenient to the airport and not too far from downtown. The only drawback is that the nearest restaurant aside fro Champion's is two miles away and more often then not I don't have a car. Not a worry though because Champion's has a fine selection for small plates and full courses to meet your needs. The restaurant is a sports bar with a number of sets all showing different events. The crowd is mixed but mostly business travelers who tend to be courteous. The bar staff is excellent though I admit my needs are simple; whiskey, bourbon or craft beer. Since the bar carries my favorite bourbon they are perfect I've had several of the small dishes and their famous "Pub" burger. The food is 3.75 stars which I've rounded to 4. The burger and fries were top notch but their calamari was dull. In the morning they serve a buffet breakfast which compares to most American hotels. I wish we could take a lesson from the Japanese on how to put together a breakfast spread!

    Vinnie and the gang are the best. Great hotel bar, 18 TV screens for wall to wall sports. Food is exceptional which I'm usually critical of most hotels bars not being. Highly recommend.

    Located inside of the Double Tree by Hilton. The restaurant itself is quite old and run down. Could use a freshening up. The floors were quite dirty and everything seemed out of place. The hostess could have cared less that we were interested in a table. The hesitated to "bother finding us one". After ordering 3 different drinks off of their menu, the server could only offer me one. The server we had was DAVE. He himself is spectacular, makes you feel comfortable and welcomed, kudos to him!A genuinely sweet man who gives you his honesty. For appetizer he chose the calamari. Highly recommend! The breading is perfect and crunchy, with a tangy sweet Asian glaze and a wasabi type dip. We also ordered the French onion soup which I returned back to the kitchen. The broth had a creamy strange twist that I couldn't swallow. For entree I ordered the angus burger. Very interesting, it was topped with pulled pork. Quite tasty except even though I ordered medium rare the meat was burnt beyond edible. Fiancé order chicken sandwich and it lacked any seasoning. Overall the place is good if you just want to catch the game on their many large screen TV's but as for food, the entrees are overly prices for low quality.

    Fillet Monin with broccoli and scallop potatoes. Yum!

    Stopped here on a Friday afternoon around 2:30 and my party were the only ones there. I had the…read moreShotgun Shrimp and the Nachos with chicken. the 2 others in my group had Chicken Tenders & Fries, Rival SmashBurger and Rival Stix. The Shrimp was reminiscent of Bang Bang shrimp. Its a decent serving size for an appetizer. I enjoyed it. The nachos were surprisingly tasty. When they came out I was unsure about them because any other time I've ever ordered a loaded type nacho they're, how do I explain it, more colorful I guess. Usually its like bacon and American cheese, guac, pico, etc., but these were just shades of white and green. I wish I could've finished them but the portion was quite a bit for 1 person. My only gripe would be the chicken. It reminded me of the meat you get in a launchable. I think I would rather prefer a crispy diced chicken. But that's just me. The other 2 didn't have any complaints about the Rival Stix or the burger. The Chicken Tenders were said to not have much flavor in the breading. The person who ordered them didn't care for the breading. I was also tempted into some sort of creme brulee donut I think. It was really good but I was already so stuffed from the nachos that I couldn't finish it. Its for the sweet tooth folks. The general space is all sports themed as expected. Quite spacious. Seems like the perfect place to come after work for a beer...and nachos!

Our table tried a lot more of the food including a pizza with the garlic sauce instead of red sauce (delicious), crème brûlée donut (amazing), spinach dip (decent and much better than it looked), brownie sundae (looked great and friends said it was), nachos (also looked good and included lettuce, which is a nice touch). The drinks were also very good! The sound wasn't the best for the Super Bowl/commercials. I couldn't hear some of what was said in commercials, but I record the game, so I'll watch some of them again later. I still hope we go there again next year for the Super Bowl. It was a lot of fun.

Unfortunately that's were the good ends. First and always foremost, how was the food? An absolutely mess. Impossible to enjoy bc the sandwich falls apart immediately, simply can not pick up without losing everything inside, and greasy as all get out. I should have expected this to an extent, but a nearly $20 grilled cheese at a place that "specializes" in them, I would hope could do better than this. Service was very, very slow despite many open seats. The part that probably sent it over the top was the plate runner constantly spilling the tomato soups everytime they brought out someone's meal. Mine dripped all of the ground as he sat it down, my wife's got on her tray so the bread was just mushy on the bottom, and we saw it constantly as he walked by delivering others. Cool idea, cool location, but the rest was just bad.

    BEST PITTSBURGH WING…read more We were absolutely not expecting this and still can't believe it. We didn't have major expectations but hoped it would be at least a top 5 wing and average meal. It was beyond that The French onion soup we saw online and everyone seemed to enjoy that. We're whores for it so had to get. I like mine a tad bit salty which this was and PACKED with onion chunks and breaded leeks on top. It was impossible to get a spoon fully without any inclusions. My new favorite The Tavern Burger. I'm coming fresh off 9 years without 5 Guys (elite) and this rocked me harder than that. This isn't a stupid smash burger. We got a juicy COOKED PERFECT RARE 8oz patty, topped with sautéed onions, and bacon that isn't crisped to smithereens. I like my bacon medium rare and that's exactly what I got. Then covered in one of the craziest sauces I have ever had, their gorgonzola cream. I could drink that by the gallon The wings.... I have never had a wing itself cooked more perfect in my life. The smoke and meatiness on them was so nailed that I could get 2 dozen plain and still have the same reaction. We got the Buffalo Garlic and Dry Cajun Ranch. These wings don't need drenched in sauce by any means or it would honestly ruin it. The buffalo doesn't ned to be creamy either. Perfect amount of sauce to cheese ration. The dry cajun ranch was a fucking knockout. For how great the wing is I would love to see more dry season options with them Cam got a Tavern Dip. I hate dips. I loved the shaved ribeye on it and horseradish, but I have never been an Au Jus man. Would 100000% eat it without the au jus Then the fries. Always team psoriasis through and through. Not sure if I'm coming off the Five Guys high but their cajun boardwalk style are even better. Get some spicy honey aioli to dip them in. Truly just shocked at how amazing this place is. Right over the bridge and cannot recommend enough going here before a game and walking over. Great spot right before, after and during sports. Very high Pittsburgh atmosphere going on I will be back so many times and absolutely worth going Downtown for
