I felt like I wasn't in Pittsburgh for an evening. The decoration was and vibe is so cool. I went to celebrate my friend's birthday and Palm Palm did not disappoint. I'm very impressed by the service and very pleased with the food,m. We had Oysters, fries, caramelized oranges, bread & jam. It was all so good! I can't even pick a favorite. I also want to thank them for arranging a fun large candle with our desserts as a surprise even though it was such a short notice. I highly recommend this place! Will definitely be going back.

We loved the roasted carrots and beet salad as starters, the orange was delicious too, they served cod tonight and it was excellent with the nutty topping. The mussels and scallop, served with rice cake was also tasty. Then we ordered several desserts, my favorite was the pistachio cheesecake, and it came with a big volume. Our server was very charming and she celebrated the night with some fireworks. Having access to a private room was so nice for the family setting so we can hear each other more easily. I really loved my overall experience tonight. Too bad there is only five star.

I stayed on my no drinking and tried a mocktail espresso martini with the girls and it still felt like the full experience, but I already know I'm coming back for the cocktails. It's small, kind of tucked away, and has this really easy energy to it. The kind of place where you're just in the moment-sharing everything, ordering "just one more thing," and realizing the whole night went by without anyone checking the time.

But, from what I had at the bar, I can tell it's a nice spot. I don't drink alcohol, so I just got a mocktail. I can't quite recall what it was called, but I thought it was awesome. It was sparkling and had a nice fruity and herbal flavor to it. Really good mocktail. My buddy got a cocktail and said it was quite good as well. The service is nice, the views are pretty cool if you're sitting by the windows, and the overall vibe of the place is super cool. I would definitely recommend this spot, and would like to come back for small plates or pastries and coffee in the morning!

I know it's more expensive than other coffee shops, but I have to say it's worth it!…read more This space is so pretty and with a great vibe, huge open area with lots of windows and cozy seating. They have a full bar for a boozy brunch, but their classic cafe is great! The spring special tangerine latte was one of the bets over had! The chicken salad toast was also delicious, with a pretty good portion size and some of the best chicken salad honestly had. It's a super great place to hang out, do some work, or read, really love it!

My friend and I come here every Friday for happy hour. Over the past few weeks, we noticed that our tabs didn't seem to match what we were actually drinking, so this time I decided to ask for our receipts. That's when we saw we were both charged for shots of Espolón tequila--something neither of us ordered. I was drinking margaritas and always ask for well tequila in mixed drinks. This makes me wonder how many times we've been charged for drinks we never had. Completely unacceptable. When we brought this up, we were told to speak with the manager to correct the tab. He was extremely rude and immediately accused us of ordering the shots, even though he wasn't present. He was more focused on watching RuPaul than helping. He then claimed my card had been declined weeks earlier, which forced me to call my bank and dispute a double charge. Thanks for the extra hassle. You come here expecting a good time and leave not wanting to return. Management clearly needs to address issues with staff to prevent this from continuing. That so-called manager has no business working in customer service. I've only seen him on Fridays and Saturdays--about 5'10", skinny, wearing sweats and a gray Carhartt beanie. He's always rude, but this encounter was beyond the limit. This happened around 9-10pm in the middle bar. If you decide to come here, be careful and always ask for your receipt--otherwise, you may end up overcharged.

From the wait staff being friendly, to a great menu, and a quirky atmosphere, Duo is my go to recommendation for this city. We took a group of different diets, and were able to make a family style meal out of it. The menu has that breadth, and is concise enough for the staff to execute well on. I really liked their ceviche and beef tartare tostadas. The lavender infused tequila cocktail was refreshing! I am definitely coming back here soon.

Duolingo opened a taco spot? We definitely made an effort to check it out during out weekend trip…read moreto Pittsburg trip last week. I was expecting it to be more of a casual taco joint, but it was far from it. The interior is modern, with a lot of warm lighting and elegant decor. We got there on a Friday around 1:30 PM, 30 minutes before they closed in preparation for dinner. Fortunately, the service was quick, and we were in and out within 40 minutes. TACOS DE SUADERO (3) - 14 Each taco contained a fair amount of beef brisket in each one. However, the beef was pretty dry and not the most flavorful. Probably our least favorite out of the tacos we ordered. TACOS DE AL PASTOR (3) - 14 Definitely more of a modern twist to tacos than traditional. I felt like there was more pineapple flavor than al pastor in these al pastor tacos. These were okay at best. GUACAMOLE Y TOTOPOS - 15 I actually really enjoyed this appetizer. They gave us plenty of guac, which was creamy and lightly seasoned. The totopos were super thick and crispy (also not too salty), and we got an extra bowl of them without charge since we had so much guac leftover. We also got an order of TACOS DE ESTILLO BAJA, which is crispy shrimp tacos. I didn't try one since the salsa and pico de gallo all had plenty of cilantro mixed in, but my friend thought these were the best tacos out of the three we tried. Duolingo... How are your tacos just as pricy as your subscription? Each taco could easily be finished within 2-3 bites. Besides the guacamole y totopos, I personally didn't think the suadero or al pastor tacos were worth getting.

This was our first time back since they opened December 2024 and there's been so much growth since then! They've tightened up service and we thought the menu was more cohesive now. We started off with some amuse-bouche before heading over to the dinner table for the main courses. They did a great job of explaining the ingredients and techniques used in each course and everything felt very intentional. My favorite dishes were the swordfish, duck breast, and parsnip cheesecake. Each course comes with a drink pairing and I was really impressed by the complex and unique cocktails. They give you a printout of everything you ate and drank at the end in a goodie bag along with some cookies! This is such a fun and delicious elevated dining experience that's great for special occasions or really whenever you just want to treat yourself.

There is a hard start time as the tasting menu is done in a large group setting-serving everyone at once. So, we found ourselves wandering around the neighborhood and then standing in front of the door waiting for 6pm to strike, I felt like a creep. The area itself is an open floor plan so when they welcome you in, it's confusing to see the table we will be seated around but also see little stations for the canapés. Little awkward. We found a two-seater, and as a plus size woman I felt a bit cramped. My husband and I are both tall (5'11" and 6'3" so we were both fighting over who got the bench seat vs the little stool. There's always that awkwardness when you're looking around trying to figure out what the heck is about to happen and wondering..when is it time to EAT. We did 3 or 4 canapés which were all enjoyable-one that stands out to me had goat cheese and beets-yum! We are asked to take our seats at the large table and ...awkward again bc we are just kind of all looking around waiting. I have a sensitivity to alcohol so I did the N.A. pairing and I didn't feel like I missed out on much. The sommelier did a great job at explaining the notes and why each pairing happened. I really enjoyed the tasting menu. The chef kept us abreast of what we were trying and looped in other accompanying staff which gave us some of their backstory which was nice. I love that the restaurant has an urban garden and tries to reduce waste-that's so important. Minus 1 star because of the clunkiness of the bench area vs the large table where we ate and the cost. $275/pp plus tip isn't something that many can swing in a blue collar city.
