OK, so the spot has been open for a minute in Carrick, which is only like 2 miles from my home and…read moreI've been dying to try it. And let me tell you it does not disappoint. We got there early because I always see a line after like 11 AM so we got there a somewhere between 10 and 1030. We gave our name to the hostess and she let us know. It would be like a 20 minute wait you have to wait outside in your car or on the street due to the space restrictions inside which is no big deal. I don't even think we waited a full 20 minutes for our table to be ready. In the interim of waiting, we looked at the menu so we would know sort of what we wanted and when we sat down our server, Tia, I believe that was her name came over with the best energy, my brother and I both like we wanna start our day with her every day because she just was killing it. She offered feedback on menu items. She even suggested that I could get aside of something I was wanting, but I also knew that it would be too much and so I ended up getting the Philly cheesesteak omelette with a side of home fries, and she suggested that I get the side pancake up sold to the strawberry shortcake version which I didn't even know it was possible, but she was like no totally doable. My brother got the meat lovers omelette with a side of fries and a side of corned beef hash. Everything was hot. Everything was delicious. The flavors of everything just killed. And I would go back and scarfed down a whole plate of their strawberry shortcake pancakes, but for the fact that it would be too much food. If you haven't been you need to go this is like a cannot miss breakfast spot. Now I have to go back for lunch because they do wings and waffles (together!) they also offer sandwiches and other items. breakfast was just the tip of the iceberg. 10/10

We were looking for a nice local place for Father's Day breakfast and wanted to keep it simple,…read morelow-key and not too expensive. Hadn't been here in a minute and thought of this place right across from Brentwood Towne Center. They get pretty busy on weekends and it's clear they have a lot of regulars, which always speaks well of a place. We happened to hit it at just the right time before it got too crowded. JT's name remains on the place but it now seems to be run by Sam whose name is added on the menus and inside. We had a funny experience when parking on the street as I was checking the app to see if payment was required on Sundays, and Sam happened to be outside and called over to us to make sure not to pay today. It set just the right start to this homey family diner experience. The space inside is modest and feels like you are eating at a family member's home, complete with kitschy little framed sayings on the walls. There is a television on and patrons chat with the staff and one another. There are maybe 10 tables of varying sizes and a counter, and today we had one server working hard to take care of everyone, the owner and a couple of cooks in the back. The menu is two pages, almost entirely breakfast items such as egg combination dishes, omelettes, French toast and pancakes. There are a few specials posted each day. You might think that a breakfast item is a breakfast item, but they really do it well here. First is a focus on high-quality ingredients from local providers like Weiss Meats and Mancini's Bread. There are creative items like my veggie jumbot, which was sort of an egg scramble including mushrooms, green peppers, onions and cheese, and it was delicious. Their potato pancakes remind me of the most I've had of a friend's who used to make authentic Eastern European ones. You can substitute one of these for your potato side and I highly recommend doing so. Even my companion's relatively simple breakfast of eggs, bacon and potato pancake was a huge hit for being perfectly prepared, because "no one ever flips the over-easy eggs just right." This is an under-the-radar spot, but locals know about it, and you should too.

Spoonwood never disappoints when it comes to trying something new. My favorite beer of the day was…read morethe Sticky Toffee Coffee--rich, slightly sweet, and super unique without being too heavy. Definitely one I'd go back for. Food-wise, my go-to is the "Pretty Fly for a White Pie." It's consistently delicious. I do wish it had a bit more basil today to brighten it up, but honestly, still a solid pie. One of the best parts about coming here is sampling their rotating beers--there's always something new and interesting to try, which keeps me coming back.

The steak portion was extremely generous with the perfect juiciness, perfect texture, and this amazing flavor. It went really well with the mashed potatoes and vegetables. I do, however, wish that the vegetable and mashed potato portions were a little bigger to match how generous the steak portion was. I loved my dish the most. I also really loved everything about the calamari. They could not have done that better and I can be very picky about fried foods. Tomato sauce was also super flavorful and they let us have another cup of that super delicious tomato sauce on the house. My brother got the shrimp Alfredo which is his go to. That also was really good and the shrimp was grilled to perfection. My grandma got a crab cake, which was tasty too, but I definitely prefer what me and my brother ordered. So yeah I thought the food was I would dare to say impressive and the service felt very friendly and professional

My buddy's buddy brought us here for a late dinner after a long day at Picklesburgh. I got pickled hard, so I was in the mood for the Buffalo chicken Mac and cheese. Despite the suspiciously affordable prices, my expectations were blown by the quality of the yellow and orange pile in front of me. My hand didn't even get a chance to reach for the phone to take a picture, because I inhaled this dish in about 17 seconds. The experience made me forget about the acid-flavored water that Allegheny County never seems to get right. I also decided to not test my luck on the fake casino machines. The ambience was dark and smelled like non-craft beer. I'll be back once I land a job that grants me access to endless Pittsburgh pickles and picklehol.

In fact I'm told by the bartender that The Coalmine in nearby Castle Shannon now has the original Bobby's fish sandwich recipe. The menu is very limited bar food. Burgers, dogs, wings, fries. I ordered a chilli cheese dog and buffalo wings. The dog was so boring - canned chili and fake cheese. The wings took forever 40+ min and seemed like they were boiled or baked rather than fried. The skin was soggy, not crispy like you'd expect. I can't recommend the food but the service was nice and the big TVs made for good game watching.

It looks like they built this bar inside of a garage now. I got fish on a dish. That's what they used to call it. Now they just called a fish sandwich without the bun. It was good. I never would've thought the ambience play such a critical role in how I enjoy a meal. It's been around six years since I've eaten there. I see no reason for me to return. That place used to have a huge lunch business all the way up till 6:30 or so. I remember having to wait out in the parking lot for a spot to open up so I could park. Today I was the only car there. Very sad.
