Some places just know how to make a random night feel important. 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. read more

The decor is wonderful but nothing else rises to expectations. The upstairs dining area was chilly with uncomfortable benches. Service was lackadaisical. After fifteen minutes we had to leave our table to get the requested cream for our coffee. The Chicken Parm which was highly touted by previous reviews was certainly plate filling but the taste of the pomodoro sauce and cheese blend was a failure. Took half home but now wonder why. I guess because of the money I had invested in it. There are too many really great places to dine in western Pennsylvania. Suggest you find one of those. Note: "A 3% operating fee applied to all checks." Wouldn't it be better to increase your food prices to offset the rising costs of operations rather than to add this on without prior notice? read more

Fish Nor Fowl - Upstairs Bar - New American Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Dinner at Fish Nor Fowl in Garfield is always a delight and I've never been disappointed! The inside is bright with a gorgeous plant wall and they specialize in Italian inspired cuisine. There's seat downstairs as well as upstairs. Our server was super nice and personable. It's the type of place where everything is delicious! I recommend family styling so that you can try more of their menu. Everyone's favorite was the mushroom pappardelle and I also really loved the buckwheat focaccia, shrimp, and warm potato and crab salad! I wish we had room to get more of their desserts but that just means we'll have to come back. The only constructive thing I have to say is that it took us a very long time to get our mains. I checked the timestamps on my phone and it was over an hour between our last appetizer and our first main. They did apologize a couple of times for the wait and they did mention that the duck was holding everything up. I'm not sure why they didn't just ask us if we wanted everything else first since they knew we were family styling everything anyways. read more

Staff here was super kind and attentive. There's a lot to like on the menu, but I was only impressed with maybe half of what we tried. Top items: - Dill focaccia. This might have been on special. If it's available, GET IT! The texture of the bread, flavor of the dill and salt, everything about it was so good. My favorite thing we tried. - I get the hype around the chicken parm. It is really good. The breading on the chicken stays crispy despite being slathered in sauce. It's well-seasoned. - They seem to have a solid cocktail menu. Everyone liked what they ordered. I love the option for mocktails. Meh items: - Caesar salad. Good, but not outstandingly good. Has anchovies, which most, but not all apparently, would expect, haha! - Rigatoni. The texture of the pasta was excellent, otherwise this was just okay. Bleh item: - Bone marrow risotto. Not a fan of the bone marrow presentation personally. The risotto itself was bland. Not appealing visually. Not worth ordering imo. read more

We loved our experience at fish nor fowl. We were seated upstairs, which felt more intimate than downstairs. 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. read more

"You always pick the best menus," I tell my friend, who is deciding where we should go for her birthday. This year she chose Fish nor Fowl. We had a 730 reservation which unfortunately was still nearly a 20 minute wait when we arrived on time. That was the only negative with our experience though. We split wine, had delicious pasta and cheese. I really enjoyed it, just be flexible with knowing you still might have to wait. read more

We stopped in here on a whim and were really impressed. The interior is beautiful sleek, modern, and stylish, with a stunning plant wall that really stands out. The drinks were excellent and clearly well-crafted. We started with the prosciutto, which was generous and delicious. The prosciutto paired perfectly with the burrata, making it a great way to begin the meal. I ordered the squid ink pasta and absolutely loved it the noodles were perfectly thick, very seafood-forward, and easily one of the best squid ink pastas I've had in a long time. My partner ordered the duck, which looked incredible in the photos, even though duck isn't usually my favorite. Overall, this was a great experience, and I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu read more

This was my second visit to Fish Nor Fowl, and it was even better than my first. It was my sister-in-law's birthday, and we were a little over 20 minutes late for our reservation as she hit football traffic coming up from Morgantown. They would've had every right not to seat us, but were welcoming and kind. Wishing her a happy birthday, they showed us to our table upstairs, which I didn't realize existed. It's a different vibe than the downstairs, which has a greenery wall. Upstairs has a cool white, winter vibe with fur stoles on the benches and twigs that reminded me of antlers. It all looks cool and upscale, which this restaurant is. Our server asked if we had been here before and as my sister-in-law hadn't, went over the menu which includes shareable small plates as well as large plate plates. We got several small plates and each ordered a large plate of pasta as well. We also each got a drink, with mine being an option from their nonalcoholic menu, which makes me so happy to see. It was similar to an espresso martini and complex with N/A spirits. Really terrific. Everything we ate was fantastic, from the buckwheat focaccia with whipped ricotta to the olives to the seasonal delicata squash. We each tried both of the pasta entries, a savory mushroom pappardelle I've had here before and stuffed shells that reminded of a rich spinach artichoke dip, before we were beyond full and took the rest to go. We were not at all hungry enough for dessert but since it was my sister-in-law's birthday our server mentioned it would be on the house and they would love to give us one, so she chose an apple cheesecake that we still somehow found room for. It was a great choice. Everything here, from the food to the service to the ambiance, is very well done. It's a bit pricey but not unreasonably so; our total before tip was just under $150 for two people. Wonderful meal. read more

We went there last weekend for the first time. Just have to say that the service was the best service we ever have gotten! Our cocktails from the bar took a long time, since they were very busy. However, because of that, they gave us 2 free deserts! The food was of top quality and taste and the ambiance was very hip for Pittsburgh! We had the chicken parm, meatball appetizer, pasta bolognese, cacio de pepe ravioli and the carrots and everything tasted delicious. The chocolate cake with rasberry was out of this world. I would definitely go there again on my return to Pittsburgh! Great addition to fine dining in the area! read more

Thinking of a place to go eat when my friend was in town that she wouldn't have been wasn't as hard as we thought it'd be. Both of us have a craving for Italian food always, so when I brought up Fish nor Fowl and she looked at the menu it was a done deal. I've talked about Fish nor Fowl before because it really is that goooorl. It's a chic space- the atmosphere is prime for a date night or girls night. Our server was super lovely , personable and attentive. The drinks were phenomenal. We both got the blood oath- which if you like mezcal, you will love. She's smokey, fruity, flirty. Then of course we had to get the bone marrow risotto. My goooood it was good. Savory, tender, sweet-- and they even boxed up the marrow bones so I could give them to Peanut to chew on later. The main event was the chicken parm, a dish Fish nor Fowl is known for - for GOUD reason. A ginormous, tender, juicy chicken cutlet, fried to perfection, topped with a sweet and savory pomodoro sauce, a hefty (so perfect) amount of moz & parm and cooked to perfection. The BUCATINI ALL'AMATRICIANA was the pasta dish we chose to round out the evening. The "amatri-chana" sauce was something special. The bucatini noodles were fresh and thick. The guanciale added that salty savory kick to the sweetness of the sauce. Of course nothing would be complete without a heaping helping pecorino on top. It was the perfect compliment to the parm. Portions are big so we had left overs for daaaays. Everything was scrumptious and everything was #GOUDapproved CHICKEN PARMESAN | $38 fried chicken cutlet/ pomodoro sauce/ mozzarella/ parmesan/ basil. BUCATINI ALL'AMATRICIANA | $28 "amatri-chana"| guanciale/ san marzano/pecorino...

First experience at Fish Nor Fowl and we had bar seats. It wasn't bad, but next time I probably would only book if there is a table available. Gave us some entertainment watching them prepare the food though! Our waitress was just fine, not super personable and I only say that because the people next to us had a different server and he seemed great!! Again ours didn't do anything wrong but felt like just another table to push through which isn't what we want to feel for a place like this! Food was delicious and we left feeling stuffed with leftovers to take back. Whipped ricotta is a must. I must say it was so hot in there that I got uncomfortable and wanted to leave. Asked my friends that had gone before if they had experienced this and they said the exact same. Usually not something I'd note but a reason for a 4 star review. Will definitely be back in the future :) read more

Back again and another 5-star experience! Of course we devoured the focaccia. But wow, that white bean dip, lights-out-delicious!!! The bean dip had great garlic and dill flavors. I mean any dip with garlic confit will be a home run! We also had taleggio and finocchiona, which is a wonderful pairing of meat and cheese. The cheese is creamy and goes perfectly with the meat! Nice service size as well. My arctic char piccata was phenomenal! The fish skin was crispy, while the sauce was loaded with flavor. Light yet so satisfying. Finally, we had a side of carrots. The feta was so tasty and paired with the harissa, made for a knockout combo. The harissa gave the perfect kiss of heat. Such a wonderful dining experiencing, which makes another return visit a must! read more

I had very low expectations when I learned that I'd be attending a work dinner here and the only vegan option on the menu was "beef bolognese/ricotta/parmesan rigatoni" that could be made vegan by request, in advance. Translation: I would be eating an overpriced pile of pasta with red sauce for dinner. What I wasn't ready for, though, was how bad the food would be in general and how rigid the staff would be in response to people who asked for anything other than what they planned to serve. Specific examples included a colleague who asked for a house salad because the menu we were given said Caesar salad or house salad. Nope, sorry. Only the sole vegan (yours truly) was allowed to have a house salad--everyone else was stuck with Caesar salad. They caved on that after an uncomfortable minute where my colleague was like, huh? They brought her a special made house salad 10 minutes later. I would have given her half of mine--it wasn't that good. The other example was when we asked for salt and it took forever to come out. It wasn't in a shaker, just a tiny bowl so we had to put our fingers in it to use it. I guess nobody had ever told them that their caramelized white bean dip had zero flavor or asked for salt before. It was really bad, and couldn't be fixed even with a pinch of salt from the tiny special salt bowl. My main dish was exactly as I expected--pasta with red sauce (blech), and my friends who ordered the chicken Parmesan thought they had been given pizzas. Their plates carried a huge disk of something they thought was crust (turned out to be chicken) with a thick layer of browned cheese on top. They barely ate any of it and did not bother taking it home. My friend who got the fish said it was ok, except for the surprising amount of dill that overpowered the rest of the dish. The best part of the night was when they brought out complementary dessert, maybe because we didn't order any, and it was a handful of dry shortbread cookies. We were like, ok, I guess it's time to leave? On the up side, the space upstairs is great. It was a nice place to host a group dinner (other than the food itself). read more

I haven't not been to this restaurant in years because the first time I went I was not overwhelmed by the food or service. Tonight I went back because my husband had suggested it after a coworker had recommended the restaurant. Let me just say wow. Big change. Food was fresh and delightful. Our server Sarah on top of everything. All staff warm and welcoming. Will be back. Me and my husband eat all over the city high end to low end. Had a great experience here. read more

My family and I came for a recent weekend dinner -- we had reservations and were seated immediately, and the restaurant was full (all the way until 9:30 at least), so definitely plan ahead with a res. Apparently they're known for the focaccia and dips -- we tried the tomato whipped butter -- and both were delicious. The focaccia was light and fluffy, not too greasy with the lovely fragrant olive oil aroma. The tomato butter was really good (and added a nice contrast to the focaccia) but it did get a bit heavy (understandably as eating a whole thing of butter at once can be a lot ...) We ordered a bunch of plates to share -- some of my favourites: - Bone marrow risotto: soooo savoury and rich flavour. The risotto itself seemed fine -- not too soggy or oily -- but the rich umami of the bone marrow stood out here. Definitely would recommend this dish. -  Bucatini all'amatriciana: this was so delicious! The sauce was extremely flavourful and the pasta was cooked to a perfect chewy texture. I thought the portion size did feel a bit small (esp the proportion of pasta to sauce). - Crispy skin duck. The duck was so tender and juicy, and the crispy skin was cooked amazingly. The polenta was prepared very nicely -- a nice lighter complement to the duck.  I would say a bit pricey for the portion size though. -- (desserts) We had the blood orange panna cotta and pavlova. For the panna cotta, I really liked the caramel flavour, which paired nicely with the panna cotta itself, without being too sweet. The pavlova was interesting -- I thought it turned out a little too crispy/hard on the sides (hard to break off with our spoons) but the mix of lemon and strawberry flavour was fantastic. Highlight was definitely the service though; our waiter Dominic was so friendly and helpful with recommendations and walking us through the menu. At the end of our meal, he was profusely apologetic about how long we had to wait for our food (which honestly wasn't even that long) and comped two of our desserts to make up for it. Overall it was such a lovely experience and I couldn't recommend coming here enough! read more

Kinda difficult to get a resy here especially on the weekend! Was able to get one for a Thurs a wk prior in Nov . Food, service and decor were fantastic. The bread...get the damn bread. I wish I could remember everything I got. But the bread was so fantastic that is the only thing on my mind lol. They did a good job with their cocktails also. I did have a glass of one of their wine which they were able to help me pair with my dinner entrée. We were the last ones in the restaurant and although they were so kind about it and almost insisted, we didn't get dessert because it was clear everyone was ready to go home lol. The space is really pretty. There's two floors and on the second floor, there are tables by windows with a good view. There's seating at the bar if you're like me and enjoy going out for a glass of wine with a nice book. I can't believe it took me years to finally get to this restaurant. Will definitely be recommending it read more

there's nothing quite like a little ~much needed~ date night at the lovely Fish nor Fowl. This is a beautiful space, it could be described as a "modern Italian spot". The elevated chicken parm was one of the best dishes we've had in a while and the aged prosciutto and burrata was truly outstanding! we would go back and order both of these again. if you need a date night this weekend check out this spot with all the vibes! read more

Prosciutto & burrata - The portion of prosciutto was huge! What's not to like?! Caesar salad - I didn't really enjoy this because the anchovy flavor was extremely strong. I know that's what Caesar dressing is made of but this was too much for my liking. Nothing against the way they prepared it, just not my taste. It was large and definitely shareable for 2 people. Mushroom pappardelle - The noodles were fresh and delicious and it was packed with mushrooms. It comes in a butter "sauce" but I do wish it was maybe a cream-based sauce as I feel it lacked a little bit of flavor, in my opinion. The service was outstanding. Our server was knowledgeable about the wine and took the time to answer all of our questions. The GM stopped by a few times which is always appreciated too. I definitely will return but will probably stick to the whipped ricotta & focaccia bread, chicken Parmesan, and rigatoni. read more

My latest visit I sat at the bar for drinks and dessert! Another wonderful experience! The RD restaurant group has really committed to putting zero proof mocktails on their menu, one of which included a zero proof espresso martini. Doing dry January, I had to give this a try! It was honestly amazing, perfectly crafted. It's great to be able to feel like you're indulging in a nice cocktail, while it's non alcoholic. We also had the tiramisu which was to die for, and the chai mousse which is always solid! read more

I'm so glad I got to stop in for a bite during my last visit home. This is one of those neighbor-adjacent places (adjacent to my old 'hood, Bloomfield aka Little Italy) that I always took for granted. And quite frankly, just like this last visit, too busy stuffing my face to document with pics or a review. I'm very proudly of half-Italian and half-German descent and the food served at Fish Nor Fowl hits home. I honestly don't think the DeShantz team had come up with a restaurant concept I haven't liked. It also means a lot that this is a locally owned group of restaurants. I am super nuts for almost every dip on the menu. I'd be happy with several of them as a meal: Tomato whipped butter Whipped ricotta Calabrese pesto The chicken parm as well as bucatini are two really great dishes. They've refined Italian rustic and have raised it to a level of sophistication and robust flavor. BTW, the mocktail menu is fab. Dream Life is vanilla and citric and it's very refreshing. Of course they also make a fine Aperol Spritz. Service is cordial, warm, and welcoming; just what you'd expect from a DeShantz establishment. read more

Service was excellent ! Loved the ambiance! We started with cocktails. I ordered the Black Manhattan and the wife ordered the dirty martini! Both were good but mine was a little too sweet, but that's probably on me forgetting something I didn't know! We ordered the calabrese pesto and the small plate special which was octopus over white beans! Both were excellent! My main course was the mushroom pappardelle and hers was the bone marrow risotto! We also ordered a side of Broccolini that was excellent! I loved my main but she was underwhelmed with hers! All in all a great meal and would definitely recommend coming back! read more

Great experience at Fish nor Fowl. Definitely a lively atmosphere but not so loud that you couldn't hear the conversation. As is typical, my wife and I split everything. We started with the whipped ricotta and focaccia. Not sure why you had to purchase both separately, but that's an aside. The focaccia was warm and fresh. The ricotta was good, but probably my least least favorite dish. Ricotta typically has a very mild flavor and this one was no exception. I just didn't like the olive oil it was served with. Such a grassy flavor. Next came Caesar salad. Delicious. I love the mild flavored anchovy on top. For main course, we split the meatball appetizer and the squid ink pasta. Both were very well prepared. The meatball was more of the Greek variety with a cinnamon flavor. I really liked the squid ink pasta. It had a little heat, which was fine by me. If anything, I could have used a touch less of the bonito flakes. They have such a strong flavor that they could easily overpower the other delicate flavors in the dish, like the crab. But it wasn't a problem for me, They were sitting on top so I simply pushed them to the side. For dessert, we split the tiramisu. It was a very healthy portion and also was very good. Combine the food with an excellent waitress who spaced everything out properly, split our dishes on her own without asking, was friendly and attentive and what you end up with was a great night out. read more

Great find! OpenTable reservation find. Service was amazing - she was so lovely and knowledgeable about the menu. Menu is somewhat confusing with lots of options.

Ideally would have been great if chef or manager would have come out to greet table - kinda expected at restaurant like this maybe? Gluten free options available!

We went here to celebrate my birthday and had a great experience. The food, service, and restaurant were top notch. We started off with the focaccia and tomato whipped butter - this is a must have! There was a little butter left and we even packed it up to take home because we couldn't stand to waste any. I also had a Caesar salad, which was one of if not the best Caesar salad I've ever had. The dressing was prefect, the lettuce was crisp, there was generous helping of cheese, and it came with homemade crostini as the croutons - amazing! For our entrees we had chicken parmesean and bucatini amatriciana. The chicken parm was delicious - hammered thin and crispy with a lot of cheese. The bucatini was good, but not a standout like the other dishes. Highly recommend! read more

Delightful time! I had visited Fish Nor Fowl right when they reopened, but this was my first time back in a while. And the experience was even better! We were sat upstairs at a table slightly elevated, which felt very intimate in a positive way! The decor is very chic. We were greeted with waters and we ordered drinks-- I ordered a Mocktail, while my two friends ordered a cocktail and wine. All rave reviews on the drinks! We shared ricotta dip + bread, as well as the chicken Parmesan (which came in the shape of a heart for Galentine's Day!! And was plenty big enough for three to share). YUM! And we each got our own pasta and dessert, which also some to take home for our husbands. We were there a long time (2.5 hours) so it's a great place to catch up with friends or a romantic night out. read more

Came here for my birthday on a Wednesday night! There was no parking but we got lucky enough to find street parking right in front of the restaurant. The restaurant is a black building with a reallyyyy small sign saying Fish nor Fowl so it was kind of hard to find. At the restaurant, it was pretty empty with very dim lighting and we got seated for our reservation immediately. The host and server were so kind and treated us very well! They offer to take your jacket too. We ordered the beef tartare per the server's recommendation which came on a bone with some bread and the whipped ricotta with some bread. They were both amazing appetizers and I was almost full before our main course came out. The spiced meatball wasn't super spicy and the chicken Parmesan was amazing! The chicken was cooked perfectly. We ordered the side pasta per server's recommendation and it was good but tasted like any other pasta. We got two cookies for my birthday which were sweet and delicious and made my birthday extra special. Our server boxed our leftovers for us as well. Will definitely be back:) read more

The food was pretty good. The service was good. The wait for the food was really long- took a little over an hour for chicken parm. We went on a Tuesday so I'm really not sure what the hold up was. Our reservation was at 7:15. We got our facaccia bread at 7:40. We got our entrees at 8:45. I take photos of food for my instagram so all my pictures have a time stamp. That just seems really ridiculous for a wait time, luckily we weren't super starving. Over a 1 hour wait between courses shouldn't be the standard- especially not for "fine dining". We were the last people left sitting upstairs which felt awkward and like we were overstaying- when the case was our dinners were brought out late. I understand things happen, but that should be communicated better or handled better read more

Loved this place! Food was so delicious. Service was super fun and great. Ambiance was positively relaxing and energizing at the same time. I was originally looking at Fig and Ash but they did not have any available reservations until 830. Next time that may be okay. But I am sooo glad this place worked out instead. The food was so amazing, I would consider visiting Pittsburgh to just go eat there. Our server was honest and funny. Very refreshing to have such an entertaining person who helped us make great food choices. Their whipped ricotta with their fresh, baked there focaccia bread was surprisingly amazing. What a great start. Their mushroom pasta was a favorite among most and you can add us to that list as well. New to me veal was super fabulous--so tender, great flavor, and overall "wow!". The broccolini as good, but nothing super special about it. The eggplant was our least favorite (so much for trying something that was not mentioned by the server), so those leftovers were left behind. What a great birthday celebratory meal. One I know I will remember and will look forward to repeating it more regularly. read more
