Best food and service ever! I have never tasted hummus so delicious! The lamb just melted and tender - clean- nice atmosphere

I love Kassab's. The food is always super tasty and quite possibly the best hummus and baba in the city! The falafel is outstanding... crunchy exterior yet smooth interior and never greasy. The portion size is enormous for the price. We had the mezza platter and three entree salads for $60! read more

Great Lebanese food ! I like the kabob dinner ! Very clean and the prices are great. I will definitely be back for some more !

I stopped in here to grab a falafel wrap before a hair appointment, and my goodness, that was easily the best falafel wrap I've had possibly ever. It was fast, filling, and delicious. Not too much sauce--just enough to moisten the contents--and even then, without it, the falafels would not have been too dry. I really hope I get some more time to come back and do a full sit-down and really see a good spread. read more

Man, I was impressed with this place. I went in and it seemed like a pretty unpretentious spot tucked in the array of restaurants in the South Side. My girlfriend ordered the falafel sandwich and it was godly tasting. I got this awesome comfort food type dish listed as Vegetarian Moussaka that consisted of layers of eggplant, zucchini, mixed vegetables, cous cous AND mashed potatoes topped with Parmesan cheese. Maybe it's because I am a small town fella but I thought that was a pretty darn unique combo. Anyway, would recommend. Great Greek spot for a quick Saturday afternoon lunch. read more

If you love Middle Eastern food then Kassab's is the place for you and if you haven't been here in a while, I urge you to come to check out the beautiful new decor and full bar that was recently added to the restaurant! They seriously have the best hummus in town - nothing fancy just traditional hummus but it is so creamy and silky with just the right amount of spices - it is a MUST if you go there. My favorite two dishes other than the stellar hummus are the falafel wrap and the lamb wrap. On my most recent visit my friend and I both got the House Special Salad. I typically shy away from salads with only iceberg lettuce but I ordered it and oh my lord it was absolutely delicious! Their house-made dressing with shredded feta cheese is to DIE for! I don't think that I've enjoyed an iceberg salad so much in all my years! Both the regular Moussaka and Vegetarian Moussaka are fab as well! One of my friends swears by the Kafta, too, which I have yet to try, but boy did it look delicious. If you have room for dessert (which is unlikely) then I highly recommend the baklava paired with a cup of their delicious coffee! read more

Kassab's Restaurant - New decor since the last time i was here. Looks great! - Mediterranean Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Kassab's is hands down my favorite place to eat in the South Side. My boyfriend and I love the food and the service and have dined here three or four times now. We always order too much because everything is so delicious we just can't narrow it down. Definitely the best Baba Ganoush around and you must have the house salad with Feta! read more

Wonderful service and wonderful food! We left very satisfied from Mezza Platter to Cream Carmel & Rice Pudding! Our group of four started the meal with the aforeparised Mezza Platter which had smooth hummus and Baba Ghannooj (my favorite!), feta, olives, pickled turnip and tabbouli (the traditional parsley/mint rather than mostly bulgur wheat) all served with pita. We were all very happy tasting and catching up. The patter did not stand much of a chance with us... Entree included Loobyeh (green beans, rice, spices and tomatoes), Kafta Kabob, Falafel Platter, and traditional (with lamb) Moussaka. The entrees were served with a great salad-simple house salad but with tangy dressing and feta is became 0H-so-good! We all needed to take leftovers home but were not too stuffed to turn away dessert. Over coffees and shared Cream Caramel and Rice Pudding, we laughed and relaxed. Our server was delightful and she patiently answered questions and attended us without any rush (and we took out good ole' time!) Great unassuming restaurant!! read more

The grape leaves are the best I've ever had. However there is only one server for the entire place so service is really slow. For example, I've been here for 17 mins and still don't have my water. read more

Met with friends yesterday and shared the hot mezza platter which exceeded our expectations, and was more than enough for three of us. The rice pudding was a great way to complete our feast. The real plus is the wait staff. Attentive, knowledgeable and there when we were ready for coffee refills, etc. -- made us feel like family. We recommend this establishment and agree that it is is a gem. We will all be back soon. read more

I've been here a few times now and it never seems to disappoint. I come here because the food is nostalgic to when I was in Israel, especially the Shawarma. It's the next best thing in Pittsburgh. It comes fresh in a warm pita and has the option of de-kosherizing with a feta option, which I almost always do :) The atmosphere is warm and welcoming and draws a great lunch and dinner crowd. Make your next stop in the southside to Kassabs for an escape to a cultural oasis through Lebanese cuisine! read more

Wow! I love, love, love this place! So good! I was a bit skeptical about going to an ethnic food place in Pittsburgh because I've visited before and not had good luck. Kassab's has prooven me wrong. We had the Yogurt Salad and Moussaka with Mint Ice Tea. I highly recommend this small whole in the wall to all that love Mediterranean / Lebanese cuisine and are fans of great service and a friendly atmosphere. read more

Personally I like this place a lot. They have pertty decent food. The hummus is good, the baba is good, the pita is fresh, the servers are kind and quick to fill up your drink, and I really enjoy their fallafel. Quantity is awesome. Not the highest of quality as far as ingredients go. read more

Always one of my favorites in Pittsburgh's Southside. The falafel sandwich with a side of hummus. Unique and delicious. Very cool space with a large brick wall. read more

Decent grub, although the grape leaves sucked and the service, while quick, was RUDE. No atmosphere. Much better Med food in the 'burgh.

Not too impressed , very crowded ,Loud , poor seating , Gyro had little to no flavor, Expensive , Poor parking. Sorry Guy's ,I wont be back.

This is my favorite middle eastern restaurant in pittsburgh. It's like going to my grandmother's house for dinner!

We love this place. I highly recommend the moussaka. The vegetarian is delicious as well as the regular moussaka. Today they're having a special on lamp shanks for 1099. This is very tempting for a new vegetarian. I'm sure that's absolutely fantastic like everything else here. read more

Took the family group of 5, and was seated promptly for an early dinner at 3-4 in the afternoon on a Saturday. The place was clean and nicely decorated. There appeared to be only one waitress on duty and she was prompt, courteous and respectful. I ordered the mixed grill, and the chicken and Kafta were both delicious. Great hearty appetizers as well. All family was pleased with their orders. Will definitely return next time I am in the vicinity. read more

Thank you GOD. I had some hummus. I also had some babaganoush and when I asked him if they used mayonaise in it, he said "why would we do that? Who does that?" BLISS. I had the lamb shwarma sandwich--great, reasonably priced and shared the appetizer platter with hummus tabouli and baba and they had the pickled turnips...you can't even know how much those turnips mean to me. When I discovered this place I felt that I could live in Pittsburgh, because every city needs to have food that keeps you coming back and this is the ethnic comfort food I am looking for. read more

Best grilled lamb sanwich on the face of the earth, awesome grape leaves!! don't forget the hummus

I used to love this place! However, when we were out for my GREAT AUNT's 80th, yes I said 80th, birthday we were treated rudely by a server named Dawn and were asked to move our table not once, but twice. Not only were we asked to move twice, we also got asked to move 11 people to two tables. As the average person would know one table fits 4 people and 4*2=8, so please explain to me how 11 full grown adults are supposed to fit in 8 seats. NEVER COMING BACK!!! Horrible experience. read more

This is my all time favorite restaurant in the Southside. If I am looking for something quick and easy to pick up I order the $5 falafels to go. Every time that I have dined in, the service was great and I have never left unhappy. The only thing that I would change is the wine selection. I wish they had something better than barefoot. Overall, A+ read more

I've got two compliments. My girlfriend and I both ordered the vegetarian sampler and the server said that we should just split it, it's enough for two. And so it was. I LOVE staff that is interested in customers having a good experience rather than a big check. Also my friend had an off menu coffee drink request. They made it no problem. The food was good, lots of vegetarian choices and I liked the vibe. I'll be back! read more

I went here twice the 2nd time we came the Waitress was a total bitch and very disrespectfull to my friends sister I've eaten better lebanese food! I've worked in a lebanese Resturant not to say that the food sucks but the waitress we had was horrible! and the food there is just ok cause like I said I've had better ! read more

I came in here for lunch on a Thursday - the place was empty, which made me sad, but it meant that I got my take-out chicken shawarma sandwich very quickly. The server was funny and friendly, and offered me a glass of water while I waited. The sandwich came out in only a few minutes, and was big enough for me to make 2 small meals out of it. It was hot, with seasoned chicken inside, along with lettuce, tomato, and nutty tahini sauce. Actually, I'm craving one now just thinking about it. I was surprised that they weren't more busy, given the friendly service and fresh, tasty food. I hope to have the chance to come back soon - I'm almost never on the South Side, but I'd definitely return if I was nearby again. read more

I would give u 0 rating. We sat waiting table and nobody came for 20 mintues. Bad service. It would first and last time. I left before i got seated read more

Good authentic Lebanese food at a low price.

Best gyro in Southside. Seriously!! The food here is amazing if you really love authentic Mediterranean food. So many options and great quality. I always get the hummus and the gyro platter. The hummus is to die for. read more

Ok, I was trying to be adventurous for the group. I don't really have a palate for Lebanese food, but it wasn't bad. I am a huge fan of fatoosh salad and that was definitely a good choice. The table ordered 4 dishes that included filet pieces and chicken pieces with rice, a ground meat concoction and a hummus appetizer. The hummus was good. The fillet and chicken were ok. If I were talked into going again, I'd probably order a gyro next time. read more

I really like the sleek with fried onions- parking is a snap because there is a surface lot a few doors down on Carsen. The fallafel and gyros are both very good. I also think the meaaz plater is a good deal- very good baba and humos- grape leaves are good but not great- I highly recommend this no frills middle eastern restaurant. read more

I've had all the middle eastern food this world has to offer and after moving to Pittsburgh from Los Angeles, this did make me a little less home sick. It really hit the spot! Will totally come back!! read more

We eat here frequently. Try the lamb shank -- my wife's favorite. I like the baked kibbee, and the hummus and tabbouli by themselves will fill you up -- very generous portion. read more

I've been eating here since I was a kid and it was on 10th street. In fact, I used to live behind them and be tortured by the smells. When I used to travel with my boss, we would just order a bunch of falafel wraps to go from the woman that used to answer the phone by yelling, "KASSAB!" Awesome roadtrip food. Now, more often, I get the portabella wrap. It's messy, but worth it and you can just eat the last few bits with a fork. Great pickled veggies and hummus. It's gone more upscale since the old days, but also pricier. Oh well, glad they can survive the rents on Carson. read more

Wonderful place. Great food friendly service . We had an absolute feast. Will definitely be back.

My favorite Lebanese place. I have been coming here since they were on the corner of tenth. My favorite falafel sandwich... The pickles are key. I also like the kefta sandwich. My wife always gets a chicken sandwich or tawook. The hummus and baba ganouj are also good. One of the few places where I'll eat all vegetarian. I always stop here when I come back to Pittsburgh. read more

I've traveled the world over,And I've eaten in every well recommended Lebanese restaurant I could find. Not only are the flavors exemplary and the service magnificent, this restaurant will go down as one of the most consistent restaurants I've had the pleasure of eating at. I've been a loyal customer for the last 10 years and will continue to do so as long as they're in business. read more

The hummas at this place had no taste whatsoever very bland... The grape leaves were a nothing special and be sure if you put a special request in to make sure that its done properly when it gets to the table because if you happen to take one bite of it they will charge you for it even though it was their screwup!! And last but not least make sure your servers are writing down what you want they tend to forget to bring simple things like the drink you ordered. read more

Not for everybody, but we enjoyed it. The sleek appetizer was really good. Entrees were fairly priced, decent sized, and really good. Service was fine. A great place for a casual meal with some different flavors. read more

This place has been really good both times I have been there. The hummus is fantastic and the lamb is amazing. The salads and grape leaves were also crisp and delicious. It's a BYOB so we of course had wine with us.. The service is acceptable and the price isn't too bad. read more
