    Tried City Winery for the first time. We ended up here because everywhere else was packed, and luckily this spot wasn't. There wasn't an event going on that night, so it was pretty calm. The menu was limited and honestly a bit pricey for the type of place and portion sizes. The craziest part was that our entrées came out before our appetizer (just fries). It took so long for the fries that we had already finished our meals by the time they finally came out. Overall, I'd say it was just okay. I'm not sure I'd come back just for dinner, but maybe I'd give it another try during an event to see if the vibe makes more of a difference.

    Fun spot right in the Strip. We enjoyed the wine flights that were really well done. Also had a really nice charcuterie tray. All the wines are pretty affordably priced and are sourced from top wine regions. Service was very attentive and knowledgeable. We look forward to going back to try more and see experience something in their theater.

    We just came for drinks and snack and had a great time taking in the views of the Strip! We sat outside and even had a little rain storm, but we were covered by the overhang. The service was good & drinks were yummy, but they do only have PA wine, just to note!

    Great service. Wine tasted like...wine? A whole cabinet of wine glasses broke. Glad no one was sitting at that table... would recommend coming just don't sit near the two wine glass cabinets....

    White flight

    Went with my friends for Hannah Montana Trivia night -- it was a great time! The trivia host had a great personality and the questions were good!! Although the ticket is cheap they do ask everyone to purchase at least 2 things off the menu. I was the dd so stuck with the wine flight and a prosciutto burger. The burger was SO GOOD. I enjoyed my wine flight and it was the perfect amount for a DD. Also a great place to split a bottle of wine with someone. The room we had the trivia in was nice -- just a little cramped but no big deal. Our waiter was very attentive. There were a few hiccups like my friend got regular fries instead of truffle fries but they fixed everything right away!

    I went here for a comedy show and it was my first time since they opened. The doors opened around 9:30 and there was a line. Checking in was actually very easy and I appreciated the fact that we had balcony seats because it was the perfect vantage point to watch the show and not be crushed by other people. For the comedy show there was a $25 minimum but that included food and drinks. And with the menu prices it was basically one thing on the menu and got you to that price point. But now that I'm thinking about it, some of their sides would have been a side and a drink. But any of the larger dishes would have taken you to the price point by itself. I got a red blend that was pretty good. Not my favorite but not awful. I would like to try the flight the next time that I'm there to really see which one I would enjoy the best. We also ordered the flatbread, some truffle fries and the wings. The wings are not crispy wings but they were still good. The flavor was nice. The truffle fries were thinner, shoestring fries and then had the cheese chunks all through it. I could have gone with a little bit more ketchup but I did like that they had ketchup and ranch on the plate. My favorite was the flatbread because we got the hot honey and it was delicious. I would definitely come back if there was an event here.

    Fun and lively shows here. The food menu is inventive and I enjoy. The wagyu sliders especially good.

    Enjoyed seeing Kevin Nealon and the English Beat there. It's a small venue and it's a nice place to see shows. It's worth the money to sit closer. The drinks aren't the best. The servers were nice. I heard the food was good but we didn't try it.

    My friends and I came here for a Drag Bingo night a couple months ago and now we come every few weeks to attend their events ! The guests that entertain, whether it be drag queens - comedians - musicians , are all absolutely amazing. Service is usually pretty on point especially considering how packed and busy they get for their events . Go early so you can eat and drink before the shows! The food is wonderful, we have ordered their tuna poke bowl, hanger steak , avocado toast , hummus, truffle fries and burger sliders - ALL delicious ! Perfect sizes to either eat on your own or share with friends . We also ordered the charcuterie board but honestly was not impressed. The atmosphere is simple but very nice to where you feel like you're in a decently classy place . My only complaint is the room you get at the actual table (let me note - I have only sat in their event /show room). My friends and I actually stopped ordering food and drinks because of the lack of space you get infront of you at the table . We will continue to attend their events , great place in the strip district !

    Been here a few times for events. First time actually coming just to enjoy dinner. Food was fair. Nothing that leaves you coming back. We did have the salmon and the Rigatoni. Both were good. There was a special desert we tried that was also pretty good. I will include that the menu they provide you during an event is different from just going to have dinner. Less options at the events. Service was great, waitress was very friendly. We went on a Tuesday evening and not much of a crowd. The venue itself has a warm ambiance. Not too big. Dim lights. Intimate settings. The only thing they don't do is provide recommendations of what wine pairs well with your meal. Overall I would come back.

    Buffalo Crispy Chicken Sandwich

    We had a very good meal just before the show this evening. I had the Buffalo Crispy Chicken Sandwich and my wife had the Margherita Flatbread. I liked that there was plenty of french fries. The service was very good. And how could you not like Scott Blasey singing the music of the 70s? Just a really great evening at a sold out show! We're looking forward to our next show at the City Winery. Check it out if you can.

    I visited City Winery for the first time earlier this month, when a comedian I like performed here. The show itself was great, and the Winery was a pretty solid venue, too. Disclaimer: I visited on a Tuesday, and I don't think I would ever try to come here on a busier evening than that. Even on a Tuesday I had to park one street over, since parking on Smallman is such a pain in the butt now. So if you're visiting on a day later in the week or over the weekend, don't forget to give yourself time to park and walk over. There's outdoor seating here that I would have taken advantage of if I was just stopping in; but since I was attending a show I had an assigned seat in the venue's performance space. It's a large room filled with tables from front to back, plus some balcony seating. I could tell there were windows up top, but they were covered enough to prevent the daylight/sunset from disrupting the indoor ambiance. Now that I've seen the space, I'd get balcony tickets in the future. Because of how the tables are arranged - and because the lower level is entirely, well, level - if a tall person or two has a seat in front of you, tough luck: your view of the stage is ruined. I definitely played the "peek around their heads" game throughout the night when I attended. There's also a bar in this event space, and to their credit, they were wonderful throughout the night. I forgot they were right there a few times during the show, so you better believe I tipped them well. Running a bar and not regularly disrupting a show takes skill! They also timed their "last call" perfectly and started bringing checks to tables with plenty of time for people to pay before the show ended. The only thing that bummed me out about my visit was the menu prices. This is the kind of place where ordering one appetizer and one drink can get you a $25 bill at minimum. And I wish the food portions were larger given the prices. Oh well. Drinks and food alike were still very tasty. On another night I would have had two drinks and ordered a full dinner; but in the interest of not overdoing it late on a work night, I stuck to one appetizer (mushroom risotto balls) and one drink (a Blackberry Bourbon Smash). Final thoughts: it was a good first visit all around; I'd definitely come back; and now I know how to make the next visit even better.

    Soft opening party!

    Pretty great recent experience at City Winery for show! This was my first time seeing a performance there & was glad to read Yelp reviews before with assistance on where to buy my ticketed seat within the venue. I am really glad we bought balcony seats, it seemed less interrupted and obviously less crowded. If I was with a group, a table on the first level would be a nice option. The views and acoustics were great in the space! When you buy a show ticket, it acts as a dinner reservation for you prior to the show. We arrived 45 minutes prior to the show starting and it was a perfect amount of time to eat some small plates. We tried the lamb meatballs, cheese board, burrata, truffle fries, and kale Caesar salad. The truffle fries have definitely improved since I was there last which is a positive! The cheese board was super full and packed with great cheeses and accompaniments. The Caesar salad was just okay - the kale wasn't chopped up so it was kind of difficult to eat. The lamb meatballs were good but they were slightly warm - I couldn't tell if they had been warm and sat, or if they're supposed to be served cold? Either way, the temp was weird. The burrata and jam it is served with was delicious but definitely could use more pieces of bread. My wine was really good, of course, and my husband enjoyed his gin cocktail. Overall, a good experience and will be back for another show!

    If you wver want a quick lunch, with no reservation for a party of 5, please RUN to Ritual House…read more Lets chat about it. Ritual House is located in the heart of downtown Pittsburgh. I had to travel there for work. Lunch wasnt provided for us that day so we took matters into our own hands, Lol. Ritual House staff was extremely friendly and we joined the 5-10 minute wait list because we didnt have a reservation. We were seated within minutes. Our waiter was a young man who didnt miss a beat. We were greeted by him and he immediately took our deink orders. I opt for a ginger ale. For my lunch, I ordered the GREEK PANZANELLA with grilled chicken- garlic croutons, feta, cucumbers, olives, red onion, roasted heirloom tomatoes, red wine vinaigrette. $18. The chicken was tender and the salad was so good. I can see myself coming back here for sure. Check out these photos.

    I think I'm one of the only people that seem to think that this place is just OK. I didn't dislike…read moreit and I didn't dislike my food or the service. I just expected a lot more based on all the rave reviews I heard. I think the biggest thing for me is that this seems to be a place that focuses on Instagramable opportunities, so a lot of thought has been put into having perfect photo opp spots and camera ready dishes. I wish some of that effort was put into making higher quality dishes. The service was great. Friendly and knowledgeable server (although the time I came on my own it seemed like it was something that never happens at this place based on the questions I got about being on my own). That in itself was off-putting. Plenty of people do things on their own. But for the price of the food (and the rave reviews) I was expecting to be blown away. And while the food was enjoyable, it wasn't anything that I was so excited about I would want to try again. Maybe I'll go back with a group and have a different experience. But I definitely don't recommend going if you are on your own.
