Happy hour
Karen H.

A large group of us came around 7pm on Tuesday and were able to get a big table for all of us. There were a few stragglers who were able to grab extra chairs from the corner. I like how you just order via QR code at the table. It makes separate checks a breeze which is really helpful for a big group. Their menu for both food and drinks is quite extensive and it can be a little overwhelming trying to decide what to get. My spicy ramen came in a huge bowl and was really good. I also enjoyed my cherry blossom mocktail.

Highly recommend - great vibes, better food, craft beer, and fabulous cocktail and thoughtful mocktails Service was good - no complications no complaints. Good food and fun options!

Patio
Chris S.

Great place. We were in town for a hockey tournament, staying at the suites next door. They have different cuisines represented here, and each one we sampled was a very good representation. After a couple of nights here, we realized that the play is to sit outside and order using the QR code and they just keep bringing the food and drink. Good beer list, quick service and a cool outdoor vibe. Wish we had one near us.

Creamy Miso Ramen
Ches D.

Love the idea of this place! There are 4 restaurants to choose from on this menu including Hawaiian, Japanese, Korean, and American foods. I've tried a dish from all of them, and they've all been delicious. You order online via a QR code and the food is delivered to your table. Service is extremely quick and servers are very attentive. It's especially nice that they have indoor seating as well as outdoor spaces where a live band can play and a garden room area.

Tom Kha Ramen
Serena T.

City Kitchen is a great place for groups. There is plenty of seating, and so many options to choose from on the menu. My personal favorite is the Tom Kha Ramen. It is a little spicy but (not too much) and overall delicious. You can order from a QR code on the table for minimal interaction with the staff, although they do come around occasionally to make sure your food came out correctly, clear plates, and ask if you need a box. The drink options are extensive and they also have a decent selection of mocktails!

I luv coming to this place every month The staff are beyond amazing and so helpful And the food never disappoints Every bite is better than the last

Fettuccini Alfredo (V)
Margo A.

City Kitchen is a great option if you're not quite sure what you're in the mood for, as their menu is extensive and covers just about everything one could be craving. My guest and I opted for some comforting, warm carbs in the cold weather. She went for some ramen, and I chose the fettuccine alfredo with chicken. Her food was brought out before mine, and she finished it just as mine was brought to the table, so needless to say, it was full of flavor, warmth, and comforting goodness on a cold day. I, however, didn't love my alfredo. I found that the sauce didn't have the richness or flavor that one expects to find in an alfredo sauce. The chicken was very juicy, though. I put in a request for a refill and a to-go box (all orders are placed via web), but neither were ever brought to our table so the service left something to be desired. Overall, I will continue to go back to City Kitchen. Though this time may not have been our best experience, the menu offerings change frequently enough that it is worth giving it more chances to shine.

I love that there are so many options! The decor is bright and inviting. Food was good, and also a great place to catch a game.

Grilled cheese with pulled pork....it was ok.
Jonathan A.

We met up with some friends here for dinner. We loved the green space for kids to run around while the adults are food. Ordering is easy via the QR codes and service was pretty fast. I started with an order of potato skins as an appetizer to share, but ended up eating 3 of the 4 because they were pretty small. They were good, but felt pretty expensive. I had the pulled pork grilled cheese sandwich with a side salad . The salad was fresh and diverse but I wasn't a fan of the pulled pork. It was somewhat slimy with very little texture, almost like it was so tender there was no substance. Overall a decent experience though.

Kalua pork bowl
Anqi H.

This was a happening place during the week! We came for dinner on Friday, and the outdoor vibe was so chill. Kids were playing on the lawn, adults were sitting at the tables with a DJ playing music. I got the Kalua bowl from Shaka. It was a good portion. I liked that they could do half greens and half rice. The pork though was a bit too salty and not quite what I expected for Kalua pork. Food came quickly and the staff were friendly and helpful. This is a good spot for groups and parties. Free garage parking is also a plus.

Doiku N.

I hate the new peppy vibe of Pittsburgh. This is the epitome of that. Food good but insanely expensive. Service was great. Came to the table a bunch. There's a scan QR for the ordering and drinks come fast. Good to go once to check it out. Would rec the summer instead of winter to sit outside and enjoy the ambiance more.

Haley P.

I've come here a few times more recently and had a much better experience. The service is pretty quick and all of the runners are friendly and helpful. They also sometimes have a host seating tables which may be helpful with managing the flow better. I still think some of their prices are outrageous ($6.50 for an IC Light is criminal!!!) but they do have good happy hour deals. I got potato skins from Charred the other night that were sooo good.

Trio Poke
Nicole J.

Came for brunch with a friend with our dogs. Staff was super friendly/ we shared the spicy ahi tuna bowl and the truffle chicken sandwich with a side salad. Both were delicious! It was a 90° day and the fans overhead helped us not feel overheated on the patio especially with the dogs. Great spot!

Some places just know how to make a random night feel important…read more I've been to @fishnorfowl_pgh a few times now and every single visit I leave just as impressed as the last. Chef Drew's consistency deserves its flowers because it's rare to find a place that delivers that level of care every time you walk through the doors. And no-I wasn't invited. I just genuinely believe in spending my own money at places I enjoy because that's what keeps this industry going around. The spots that make people feel something deserve people showing back up for them. The chicken parm will neverrrrr not get ordered at this point and I truly don't think I've ever left without a full belly and leftovers I was excited about later. Huge thank you as well for the duck dish and champagne that somehow made an already good night feel even better. Also starting a little series on the people I share meals with because food's always been tied to connection for me. This dinner was with Ashley ( @burghgourmetgirl ) -someone I met when I first started putting everything I had into content creation. She's quiet but confident in a way that makes people naturally gravitate toward her. And once you really get to know her, you won't stop laughing. She works hard, plays even harder, has seen more of the world than most people ever will, and somehow still stays one of the most genuine people I know. Pittsburgh's lucky to have her, but I have a feeling she leaves a little piece of herself everywhere she goes.

We loved our experience at fish nor fowl. We were seated upstairs, which felt more intimate than…read moredownstairs. Our waitress was very kind and offered recommendations throughout the experience. We started with the focaccia bread and tomato butter which was a must!! We had plenty leftover and I am still snacking on it at home. For our entrees I got the weekend special, lump crab risotto, and it was perfectly creamy yet refreshing just wish there was a little more crab in it. We also got the chicken parm and rigatoni which was delicious. The chicken parm is massive and definitely a show stopper. Kicking myself for not ordering a pasta, since it's all homemade:), but I guess I'll have to make another reservation!! Can't wait to visit when the outdoor patio is open.

I placed an online lunch takeout order recently for a veggie burger with fries. Based on a special instruction I added to the order, the manager called to ask if I was vegan before they made the order since their bun and aioli have egg. Although I'm not, I was so appreciative of the effort they put in to make sure that the order fit my dietary needs! Also, the burger and fries were both cooked to perfection and so tasty. Highly recommend Butterjoint and their sister cafe, Sidecar!

Got to try their chicken sandwich and vinegar pie. The chicken sandwich came with a garlic sauce (toum) and fresh vegetables on their signature milk bread. Needless to say, the bun was amazing. The toum was great too, perfectly garlicky. And the chicken was delicious, with a solid portion. A bit on the expensive side though. The vinegar pie sounded super unique and intriguing so I gave that a shot. So glad I did! This is delicious. I can't even really describe it; there's a tiny note of acidity to it, but it's also super sweet. A nice little brown topping as well. It's just really good and you should try it. All in all, recommend this spot. The inside area we were sitting at was a little bleak but other than that, it is a nice place to be!

This is a rarity in Pittsburgh and I'm glad it exists. We dined at Spork before they switched to…read morethe tasting menu and wasn't too fond of it-my opinion has changed! There is a hard start time as the tasting menu is done in a large group setting-serving everyone at once. So, we found ourselves wandering around the neighborhood and then standing in front of the door waiting for 6pm to strike, I felt like a creep. The area itself is an open floor plan so when they welcome you in, it's confusing to see the table we will be seated around but also see little stations for the canapés. Little awkward. We found a two-seater, and as a plus size woman I felt a bit cramped. My husband and I are both tall (5'11" and 6'3" so we were both fighting over who got the bench seat vs the little stool. There's always that awkwardness when you're looking around trying to figure out what the heck is about to happen and wondering..when is it time to EAT. We did 3 or 4 canapés which were all enjoyable-one that stands out to me had goat cheese and beets-yum! We are asked to take our seats at the large table and ...awkward again bc we are just kind of all looking around waiting. I have a sensitivity to alcohol so I did the N.A. pairing and I didn't feel like I missed out on much. The sommelier did a great job at explaining the notes and why each pairing happened. I really enjoyed the tasting menu. The chef kept us abreast of what we were trying and looped in other accompanying staff which gave us some of their backstory which was nice. I love that the restaurant has an urban garden and tries to reduce waste-that's so important. Minus 1 star because of the clunkiness of the bench area vs the large table where we ate and the cost. $275/pp plus tip isn't something that many can swing in a blue collar city.

Of course we had to start with mimosas hahaha. They were the perfect way to kick off brunch. We both ordered omelets and they absolutely hit the spot.

We also shared the French toast with the berry compote and oh my goodness... I have the biggest sweet tooth, so I saved it for last. It was definitely worth the wait.

I tried the waffle Benedict and thought it was great. Definitely worth a visit for breakfast but their weekend hours should be updated if they open they open before 9am...

That means I haven't actually eaten inside Roots itself; maybe one day I won't be picking up my meal on the go? But until then, I can't comment on what a sit-down experience here is like. If the name didn't give it away, this is an eatery focused on "natural foods", AKA whole foods. So if you want a salad or a bowl, this is a good place to get one. They have a limited number of "set" menu items, and they let you make custom creations, too. This is where I reveal how lame I am, because I found my favorite order back in 2023 and I've never changed it up! If you see me here I'm probably ordering a Mayweather salad, which includes kale, bulgur, sweet potatoes, beets, red onions, goat cheese, and chicken. One day I might shake things up and try their cobb salad...but until then, I'll let the Mayweather continue to delight my tastebuds. Disclaimer that Roots is not the cheapest eatery on the block, but for me, it's my weekly treat. I could never make a salad as tasty as theirs, and a good (i.e. healthy and yummy) meal makes my in-office day a little better! I can't wait to pick up my regular order again later this week (although I might steal another reviewer's idea and get the BBQ tofu instead of chicken...it sounds good AND it would make me a slightly less boring regular!).
