Everyone was satisfied about the meal. It was quite pricey, which was expected when we walked in because of the ambiance. So why only 3 stars? I live in Las Vegas and my guy lives in this area (long distance). Well, we were with friends that my guy hadn't spent time with in a while, and this was my first time meeting them. Nice double date! 3 out of 4 of us got multiple drinks and we were enjoying our dinner. We got dessert too. The manager checked on us once. We probably stayed about 20ish minutes after desert while talking and finishing drinks. We got up and used the restroom, and saw the mgr in there. We heard her say that our table "finally decided to leave." Very unprofessional when you are sharing the same restroom as customers to then be talking about them. I'd say the same thing had she not been talking about us but another table. I have 20+ years in the hospitality industry and that rubbed me the wrong way. Food wasn't good enough to come back, so this is a place that relies on ambience and service, which we'd come back for if the service were great...be hospitable. The server was knowledgeable and kind; it's too bad the manager couldn't keep her thoughts about well paying, well tipping customers to an area where customers couldn't overhear.

When you're in the 'Burgh, find something local and go enjoy. I'm not local, and I was thinking…read morepierogis & Iron City, maybe catch some Pittsburgh sportsball? Downey's House provided the local spot I needed. An ice cold Yuengling on draft went down very well, and while I didn't find pierogis on the menu, I settled for a phenomenal bowl of spaghetti & meatballs. Local marinara & meatballs made with the same recipe of the old Main Hotel that was in Carnegie for nearly 100 years. That bowl of pasta was SCRUMPTIOUS and just what I was after. I even talked my lovely wife into doing up her salad 'Pittsburgh style', which means adorning the salad with fries. And yes, it's as good as it sounds. Thrown in a protein like grilled chicken and that is a banger of a meal. Great dining area with a square-shaped bar and TVs with sight-lines in any direction. The service is friendly and helpful, and prices are probably lower than at some chain-y eatery that just makes your food via assembly line. It's local and sensational!

I've heard good things about this food truck and tried it on Friday when I was t my Grandpa's…read morenearby. Their lent menu is a little more trimmed down than their regular food truck menu I have seen before. I got the fish sandwich, hush puppies, and a large side of lobster mac and cheese. It was a little pricey, $31. The lobster mac and cheese was as much as the sandwich for a container the size of a to-go soup bowl which seemed like a little much. There weren't that many lobster pieces for the price, like 3 or 4 decent-sized chunks, and the mac and cheese itself was pretty bland. The fish sandwich was the best part but I still wasn't wow-ed; I was also charged $1 for one slice of american cheese. I'm fine with paying extra for things, that just seemed excessive. The hush puppies and fries were clearly just frozen, and the fries were cold. For the price, I wouldn't come back here during lent but may visit the food truck at a different time to see the bigger menu.

I'm interested in trying their lobster rolls after lent is over!

Our first time here and our expectations were exceeded. We knew it was a top tier restaurant but it…read moretruly excelled in every way. Service, food, drinks, atmosphere were all top notch. Our server was excellent and the auxiliary staff were courteous and efficient. We started with a calamari appetizer which was a little spicy but delicious. Beware of the two Thai chilies in the mix! Next my husband had the lobster bisque. It was quite rich with a large chunk of lobster as a garnish. Our main courses were a 10 ounce filet, wild caught shrimp stuffed with crabmeat and Chilean sea bass. Everyone loved their entrees. Our son especially loved the filet, it was so tender. We ordered two side dishes for the table and they were plenty for the three of us. Decadent lobster mashed potatoes and crabmeat fried rice. We shared a dessert, creme brûlée which was topped with fresh berries and served with chewy cocoa snowflake cookies. Overall the food was excellent. Service started out a little rocky. I had made a reservation online and it would only let me choose a high top. We don't like high tops so I called the restaurant a few days before and they assured me they could accommodate us with a regular table, not to worry. Upon entering and giving my name for the reservation, the Maitre D'être said it's for a high top. I explained that I'd called and we didn't want a high top. He said he could only offer us a booth in the lounge, so we took it. The lounge had a jazz trio playing and the music was a bit too loud for comfortable conversation. The server had to talk above the music to be heard by us. Luckily they took a break and when they came back the volume was lower. As we were leaving I noticed there was a whole dining room with empty tables which were NOT high tops. So why did they seat us in the lounge? Our drink orders were pretty simple, however because they serve the cocktails from the shaker, the server mixed up the dinks and poured my husband's margarita into my 'dirty' martini glass. So I had a three blue cheese olive margarita! A margarita-tini! He realized what he did, apologized and ran off to get another margarita for my husband. I had eaten the olives and tasted the margarita, which was very good. When he returned, he asked if I still wanted the martini and I laughed and said, yes, that what I ordered. So my husband got the benefit of two Margaritas for the price of one and I got three extra blue cheese olives! That was the only goof up. The rest of the meal was flawlessly served. I felt that even though the prices are high, the portion size and the quality of the food provide a good value. You expect to pay more in a place like this. It was well worth it in my opinion. And if you are there during Happy Hour you can choose cocktails and appetizers from the Happy Hour menu which is quite reasonable.

5/5 for service with Jen-SHE WAS OUTSTANDING!!!…read more We had: Whipped Burrata Pot roast nachos Scallops Salmon Turtle ice cream Guava refresher Bourbon Manhattan Overall, we had a really nice experience. Here, the service was excellent, and our server was very attentive to the fact that we brought a baby and helped to entertain her during my Mother's Day dinner. I also think the pricing is very fair. The whipped burrata was good, I was expecting something lighter and more spring, and this was a little spicier and more heavy. It was good, I don't really have a complaint about it, it just wasn't what I was expecting. I had the salmon and I often get the salmon when I go out to dinner and this was a nice remix. It was served on a corn tamale cake and had citrus and salsa verde. My husband got the nachos and the scallops and he was not a fan of the nachos, but he really liked the scallops. He also enjoyed his bourbon Manhattan. I had a cocktail, the guava refresher, and it was delicious. My husband also really loved the turtle ice cream dessert. We will return for sure!

My bf and I chose to have our Tuesday lunch outside on the patio at the Sea Shell Bar. The weather…read morewas perfect that afternoon and several groups of people were enjoying the outdoor tables too. Our server was very friendly, but we could tell she was a little frazzled from the large crowd she had on hand. We were able to place our order and get our food within our work lunch timeframe, though. I ordered a turkey club to go along with two apps that we shared: breaded mushrooms and jalapeño poppers. Both were good, but I thought the jalapeño poppers were just a little better than the mushrooms. They were thick, stuffed, and spicy. My turkey club came with a pickle spear and a side of ridgey chips. The club was good, but definitely could've used some kind of sauce. They brought me out a little container of mayo, but i'm not a mayo fan. So, the sandwich was a little dry for me. They really loaded it up with turkey! I ended up taking half home for lunch the following day. Also, on Tuesday's they have a free cookie for each patron! They were chocolate chip and they were definitely fresh and chewy. I would certainly go back for lunch outside again in the future.
