We entered as at least one large group plus some other people were exiting, and all of the tables were picture perfect before we had even decided what to order. One very odd thing is the lack of signage outside during our visit. Maybe they were repairing or getting a new sign? It did feel a bit strange to enter, but there were plenty of happy people coming and going. Once inside, it was very obviously a restaurant. There was nothing wrong with the food, but there was also nothing special or memorable about it. Everything was priced reasonably, so I wouldn't mind returning, but I also won't be in a rush to do so.

We enjoyed our dinner at The Back Porch Restaurant in Belle Vernon, PA…read more This restaurant is about 1 hour drive from downtown Pittsburgh. We are in town for a wedding. The building is a beautiful mansion Est. in 1806. The mansion was converted to a restaurant in 1975. You need reservations for the upper upscale dining area. We decided to eat in the Speakeasy room located in the basement because it was more casual. Glad we ate in speakeasy room because it was a really nice cave looking room with vintage decor and cool prohibition photos from the 1920s. We enjoyed the Half Rack of char grilled pork ribs with brown sugar, soy and ginger with a side of cheesy scallop potatoes. For dessert, we enjoyed the crème brûlée and Kahlua cheesecake. Everything we ordered was excellent!! We had really good service. Check this place out if ever in the area. Happy Yelping :)
