I love this place! I love the atmosphere, the pizza, charcuterie boards, etc. Must be 21 to get in so no annoying children screaming or running around. Have a Happy Hour and deals on certain days. read more

I don't know why I have never reviewed Eighth & Hays. Especially since I was there on a very recent trip back to Pittsburgh. Better late than never right? On my last visit, we had a brick oven pizza which was really good. We went with the Margherita and the flavor popped. All of the ingredients were fresh and the pizza was cooked to perfection. A lot of times brick oven pies can come out rubbery and chewy. Not the case here. On another visit we had the charucterie board & it was filled with great cheeses, jams, crackers, and dipping sauces. The steak sandwich as well as the caprese sandwich are some pretty stellar options. The steak sandwich has a really flavorful and unexpected corn pico. Here for it. Caprese in any form is a plus for me. I like that the sandwich includes red onion and a really tasty sun-dried tomato pesto. Venture over to Homestead for this spot. You'll be happy you did. read more

Another fantastic dinner at Eighth and Hays! The pizza photo that comes up in the listing undersells the kitchen here. Tonight my husband had a flank steak with mashed potatoes and root vegetable medley. I had the lamb lollipops, tabbouleh, and warm naan with a smokey Hays & Ember cocktail. Just the quality and food drink I wanted at the end of a long 2-week stretch at work. Our server was bubbly and helpful. And my Elder Millennial heart was happy to hear the 90s alternative music soundtrack. The gas fireplace added ambience on a rainy evening. Parking is tight, but I managed to snag the last spot in the lot behind the building. There is also street parking. read more

Stopped in for drinks and apps with some friends before a movie last night. Very cute spot. Drinks were great. Spinach and artichoke dip and caprese salad were excellent. There's a nice little parking lot right behind the restaurant that made parking super easy and convenient. Definitely recommend if you're in the area. read more

I've been to Eighth & Hays a few times and it doesn't disappoint! Their pizzas are great and the sandwich I got was delicious. The Cali steak sandwich was cooked perfectly and the spicy mayo was a great touch. The space is not huge but has some communal space and does have smaller intimate tables. They do take reservations but do accept walk ins if there are open tables. The service was great and very attentive. read more

The atmosphere is cozy stone , fireplaces. Comfy cool . We had a caprese warm salad That was delightful. Husband had a salmon dish I cannot comment but I posted a picture I had the fish of the week. Jamaican Jerk Flounder on a mango peach coulis with corn pico and plantain tortillas Though the flounder seasoning was dusted it was cinnamon in some places and nothing others but the jerk was pleasant when it was there the coulis could have been more mango or brightness forward The corn pico and plantain tortillas (house made) were nicely executed. It was finished with sifted cojita and cilantro and red mid hot pepper rings. $23 Wine was Paso Robles Tom Legend nice Cabernet not bold but balanced. I give 4 stars for creativity, interest, and flavor synergy that mingled through the meal read more

Loved this spot! Came with my family around 7 on a Saturday evening after a long day of moving. There was a wait, but we spent it at the bar with Riley - who was great and made fantastic drinks! The pizza was delicious - we tried four different ones and they were all fantastic! read more

If you have read my reviews before you know it takes alot for me to give a five star review. Beginning to end our evening was perfect. This was our first time here & took advantage of the Wednesday & Thursday night special of wood fired pizza & bottle of house wine for $40.(×2) (Take a look at my pictures and you can see our Pizzas) we ordered 2 upon the suggestion of our server. So glad we did. This is smaller neighborhood restaurant with a warm & intimate feel. It is 21 and over to enter the establishment. Service was attentive & friendly. Save room for dessert it was fabulous! Look forward to going back to try the chef board (charcuterie) & some of the craft cocktails. read more

Elegant date night decor and truly delicious meals, Eighth & Hays earns its reputation. The service was fantastic, and while the ambiance was a tad dark at midday, the pleasant conversation and the wine tasting that accompanied it made it all a treat. I ordered a chef special as an appetizer, the gator bites (deep fried alligator) and while the larger pieces were unfortunately a bit chewy, the smaller pieces were absolutely delicious. My entree was the carnivore pizza, and though it was piled high with so many toppings that it felt a bit sloppy to eat, the various meats worked together perfectly in a symphony of flavor. I'd definitely go back just to see how the chef elevates other meals. It was really fantastic. read more

Service is wonderful at Eighth & Hays. Ambience creates a very relaxing atmosphere. But, we ate pizza and it was subpar. Dough was flat and lacked the good crunch when you bite into a crust. They serve gluten free pizza and it truly was probably the worst gf crust I've ever had at a restaurant. It was basically a burnt cracker. I've eaten here before and the food is usually good. Something has changed recently. read more

Birthday dinner at E&H. First time, post bike ride in Homestead. No reservation but snagged a great window seat. Gracious wait staff and great food, good wine and beer selection. We'll be back post-biking and at other times. Note that it's mostly street parking if the back is full. Go early. read more

Creative and innovative pizzas, seasonal and weekly menu offerings that are delicious and different from any other restaurant, and a staff that is engaging and top notch in every way. Eighth and Hays is a true gem - especially for date night! $40 gourmet pizza and wine? Yes, please! read more

First, be aware that they charge 3% for using a credit card and don't print the receipt for you to see/remember it. There is a sign at the front. Second, the place is well decorated, cozy, and nice inside. Third, the food was good but not great. Salmon was tasty (although slightly undercooked) and pizza had a nice crust (although needed more seasoning- perhaps more salt?) 3/5 altogether read more

This place doesn't offer reservations for less than 6 people, which is a bummer when you find a place that's good next to the Carnegie Music Hall of Homestead. So I always try to make sure we have enough time to wait for a table, if needed. I have been here a few times now and the service is never a complaint. We split a bunch of stuff, as there were 4 of us. I ordered an espresso martini, which was one of the better ones I've had in Pittsburgh. The BBQ chicken mac and cheese was simply not good. There are so many other awesome options on the menu, I'd skip this one honestly. The cheese blend was not great, it almost looked colored in a funky way for a mac and cheese. The color wouldn't deter me, but just saying there was some interesting choices that went into this dish. Another person disliked it, and then one friend liked it...at least it got ate! The bruschetta was an interesting take...it had pesto! It was a little too much pesto, so I had to scrape some off. But it was actually really good and different! The pepperoni pizza...this is why you wanna come here! I have never had a bad pizza here, whether you go with a classic or a fun pizza! The crust, sauce, cheese, pepperoni...it all was very good. The baked shrimp dip is the last thing and I will say it was one of the unexpected loves of the night. It reminded me of a spinach artichoke dip, but with shrimp! It was creamy, flavorful, shrimp was cooked nicely, and the little breads they give you with it were better than crunchy chips as they had some give to hold all the yummy goodness! All in all, we will be back again and again! read more

Quality ingredients and great price for crafted wood fired pizza but execution is not my preferred as it's heavy and comes out soggy. I can see why 8th appeals especially with the cozy fireplace, medieval bistro lights, upscale decor with cocktails & wood fired pizzas to boot. But that Pizza is soggy even though we sent the Supreme back for a second shot in the oven after downing a slice, and for me, I like cheese, but to taste and the additional heaviness of a lot of cheese so other ingredients are not visible, was not enhancing the flavor, while the tomato flavor of the sauce was absent on both the Supreme $15 & Pepperoni $14. Sazerac was good for $11, not a huge pour served up but great flavor. Specials had no prices on the chalkboard or on the printed, which I always find annoying so I wrote them in on the menu attached. They are a bit spendy $42 for filet, $14 for blistered shishito peppers.. Service was aok, they were short staffed and making cocktails at the same time, it took a while for order, food, checkout, so patience in practice ;) Visiting PIT so this likely a one & done in a neighborhood we happened to visit but for those that like soft pizza, lots of cheese and not taste the sauce, this would be your spot. read more

After seeing positive reviews we decided to try the pizza. We ordered a margherita and a pepperoni. We were disappointed to find out that the milkshakes mentioned in other reviews were not available. The pizza was not our preferred style. I found the crust to be a bit soggy and the Italian seasoning was overwhelming for my taste. Some might enjoy this style, but this is probably not a place that we will revisit. My order was to go, but I noted that the interior was modern and lovey. Lots of people having a good time seated at tables eating pizza and drinking wine. read more

Stopped in for dinner and ordered the special of a pizza and bottle of wine for $40. You can select wine from the house wine list except one or two.

They just started a brunch on Sundays from 10:00 to 2:00. Excellent Bloody Marys and my mates enjoyed the Mimosas. Unique breakfast wood fired pizzas. The Belgian waffles and omelettes were also a big hit with our crowd. Looking forward to returning to sample other options but will stick with the Bloody Marys, deliciouso! read more

It smells like a wood burning fire and has a warm feeling as soon as you walk in. The wine selection has both house and premium selections. Happy hour includes the premium selections. The food menu has good options for almost any eater. There are multiple pizzas to choose from or you can build your own. If the parking lot is full, you can park on the street. The location is on the main road and close to the waterfront. read more

Had an enjoyable time here. Cool ambiance and vibes. Nice wine selection. Family and I had a great time tasting a little of this and a little of that. Review your bill at this place. They charged us for an extra bottle of wine, hot oil for the pizza, and to swap out one of the cheese options for our charcuterie. Sometimes things like that makes an enjoyable experience frustrating. The food and the wine was good. Wine was a great addition. The dessert was okay...it seemed like it sat in the fridge for a bit, but the family enjoyed and that's all that matters. Service was fine, all waitstaff were friendly. read more

This place is amazing. You have to check it out on a Wednesday or Thursday night for their $40 pizza and bottle of wine night! Every time I go, they always have a new wood fired pizza to try on the menu and a great wine list. 10 out of 10 I would recommend it! read more

My family and I took in a movie last night at the Waterfront in Pittsburgh and of course tasked me with finding the restaurant. I did a quick search to see if anything new has popped up since we've last visited the area and came across this restaurant. I'm not sure how long they've been in business but this was our first time. We absolutely loved it! I'm pretty picky with food since I'm constantly cooking at home and I have trouble paying for just mediocre cooking. I love salmon and have trouble getting it out anywhere without it being overcooked. I decided to take a chance when i saw the salmon salad on the menu. It was without a doubt the best salmon I've ever eaten! Crispy, screaming hot and cooked perfectly! Just doesn't get any better. The salad was perfectly dressed. The cheese. The pomegranate and apple slices with walnuts. It all just came together. My wife had a margarita pizza that I of course sampled and it was heavenly as well. I had an old fashioned to drink and we finished the evening off with the Italian lemon crème cake and an expresso. Great atmosphere. Warm and cozy. Excellent waitress. Just a great experience. Can't wait to return! read more

I got the salmon salad for dinner and it was so yummy! The salmon was cooked perfectly and it was a creative combo of flavors. Everyone enjoyed their cocktails and food. Highly recommend and would love to come back soon! read more

There should be negative star designations because of restaurants like this. This place is really that bad. They charge $18.00 for a salad. Yes - a salad! They also charge $18.00 for a 5" personal pizza! This is the old Homestead Eat n Park for those who remember it. When our group walked in - there was zero air conditioning on. As soon as I opened the front door a heat wave hit us. It was literally warmer inside than outside on a 70 degree day. To say it was uncomfortably warm would be an understatement. I was sweating on my upper lip and started to smell not only my armpits but the woman's armpits next to me. Adding to the warmth of the room was the blinding sun streaming in from the wall to wall windows. There are see through blinds to mitigate the sun a little bit but not enough for comfort. The blinds were woefully ineffectual in keeping the sun from burning the skin and blinding the eye. We moved to the most interior located table for comfort. This solved the sun problem. This had the added benefit of distance from the window should a drive by shooting occur. After all this is Homestead. The wait staff saw us fanning ourselves with menus so they announced that they would put the air on. It did cool down to where it was comfortable. We ordered 2 salads and 2 small pizzas. They are obscenely priced for their size. I returned my pizza. This establishment should be ashamed of what they're selling as gluten-free pizza. It was paper thin and burnt with 4 thin slices of cheese and a dollop of tomato sauce. That was $18.00! I should have photoed it and posted it to counteract the paid social media influencers who say this is a worthwhile place to patronize. It is not. My pizza tasted as bad as it looked. By the time the waitress came back to ask if everything was ok - my party was more than half way done with their meals so I didn't order a replacement meal. My colleagues were there to celebrate me. I wound up not eating anything at all and paying for the check as I didn't want them to have the indignancy of paying $122.00 for something this awful. The entire time I was sitting in this restaurant I was worried about the car out in the parking lot because of the high crime and very high drug use in this area. Our celebration was completely ruined. Go somewhere where your vehicle is safe, the food is tasty and reasonably priced and the decor is attractive. This place is not it. I don't post often but when I do it's always to post an abomination. 8th & Hays is as bad as it gets. I will start posting reviews of places I love to go to going forward along with the places to avoid. This place should be avoided. read more

I've been to @eighth_and_hays once before and it's always been a good time. We were kinda bummed that their pizza oven was out of commission last night bc I won't lie I had my eye on their lasagna pizza- but we just decided we'll have to come back! My steak fettuccine Alfredo was really good! Steak was super flavorful and cooked to a perfect medium rare. The savory steak paired with the creamy Alfredo was just what the doctor ordered. I will say, I went a little hard on the charcuterie board beforehand. The bacon jam has me wrapped around its finger lol. But you really can't go wrong here. Can't wait to come back and get some zaaa! #GOUDapproved read more

They have some really unique items on their menu which makes for a fun eating experience. My group are family style and for each dish at least one person at the table was a huge fan, and everyone else was satisfied. For all the goon lovers out there, the fried crab Rangoon sticks were a fun option and very tasty. The meat and cheese plate is always a crowd pleaser and made for the perfect app with our drinks while we waited for our meals. My margarita was refreshing and delightful, a perfect summer drink. The pizzas are great, while I was hesitant to try peaches on pizza I found myself pleasantly surprised and my fiancée absolutely loved it. read more

Eighth & Hays is a great spot to check out before heading to a show at the Improv or Carnegie Library. Especially if you are with a group.

Pro tip: if you are with a group, make sure to get the Chef's Board. They pack it with so many different items it is hard to finish it all! read more

Eighth and Hays is a great spot in homestead, however, over time they have not been the same as they were a few years ago. While they still provide interesting pizzas and charcuterie, I feel like the quality of the items have gone down. For example- the pizza is often burnt and not consistent between times ordering. Sometimes it's so good and other times it's completely not. The pizza ironically is well priced though and especially on Wednesdays, However the charcuterie which is one of their best items is fairly pricey. If they gained more consistency they could easily fix their rating. I still recommend this spot, however, not everything will be the best read more

What an experience! I can't wait to return. Parking is a little limited depending on when you go. We parked on 8th Avenue.

Great experience at Eighth & Hays. Really cute atmosphere inside. We had a group of 4 & shared multiple pizzas, all really good! Also, the Mac n cheese app w/ chorizo, YUM! Probably my favorite thing. The restaurant was following Covid protocols, all wearing masks & social distancing. Restrooms were very clean & the staff was welcoming. I would have liked to try a dessert to go, however, I asked too late and the kitchen was already closed. Wish our server would have asked if we wanted anything else since when I asked, it was too late. My friend was impressed with their whiskey selection & the drinks I ordered were good. Food & drinks all reasonably priced. I would def. return! read more
