Nicely pressed bread, tasty pulled pork, pickles, mustard, etc. The sides were good as well - I enjoyed both the potato salad and the spicy slaw. Unfortunately, the slaw had a slightly grainy texture. Overall nice spot for a quick bite. Service was kind and fast. Will stop in again next time I'm in the area.

Split review on the wings, I didn't like the tough cook on them but others did. The quesadilla had brisket and a wonderful overall taste. Service was swamped but kind, it's a great casual friends and family joint to get something you know you'll like.

We would have loved to sit out on the patio but it was just way too HOT outside. The restaurant is located in a historic building. Taylor was our waitress and did a great job walking us through the menu. Of course, we start with (10) wings, dry seasoning style with bourbon honey and BBQ bourbon sauces on the side. The only thing that was disappointing was the baby carrot -go the extra mile and prepare carrot sticks! We also ordered the Pitt Bull pizza topped with bacon, cup pepperoni, and crumbled sausage, it was excellent. Definitely looking forward to coming back to try more pizza options and hopefully enjoying the patio next time!

The menu…read morelists appetizers (e.g., spicy cheese curds and chicken wings), a couple salads, sandwiches, tacos, several meats, sides (e.g., slaw, sweet-potato fries, corn muffin, and potato salad), and drinks. Trivia and live music are sometimes available for entertainment. In the past few years, my husband and I have eaten at Wheelfish a few times. For our meals, the hostess and waitress promptly and politely served us. Here are my reviews for the foods: Pretzel bites - 4.5 stars - This appetizer was a large size. We really liked the flavor of the pretzels and the honey-mustard dip. We thought that the cheese dip was OK. Pulled-pork nachos - 5 stars - This appetizer of nachos was huge! Many tortilla chips were topped with gooey cheese, pulled pork, jalapeños, sour cream, and pico de gallo. Fried deviled eggs - 4 stars - The egg white was breaded and fried. It contained a yolk filling and was topped with a spicy jalapeño. We prefer traditional deviled eggs, but these ones tasted good. Mix-and-match soft tacos - 4.5 stars - The pulled-pork taco contained pulled pork and vegetable toppings that were very flavorful. For the brisket taco, I enjoyed the flavor of the brisket and toppings, but the juices made the tortilla soggy and caused it to fall apart. Shrimp tacos - 4.5 stars - These were on sale on a Thursday. The shrimp were breaded, and the toppings of napa slaw, mango salsa, and chipotle aioli tasted very good. Meat entrees - 4.5 stars - My husband liked the smoked chicken the most (5 stars), and he described it as being "delicious." We also ate ribs (4.5 stars), kielbasa (4 stars), brisket (5 stars), salmon (4 stars, needs more seasoning), and pulled pork (4.5 stars). Macaroni and cheese - 5 stars - My husband said that this macaroni was the cheesiest thing that he has ever eaten. He described it as "delicious." I ate some of the macaroni, and I agree that it was extremely cheesy. French fries - 5 stars - These fries were perfectly crispy and salty. Grilled vegetables - 4.5 stars - I wanted to make my meals more nutritious, so I chose a side of grilled vegetables, which are seasonal and included peppers, corn, squash, and zucchini. This mix of veggies had a very good flavor. Side salad - 4 stars - This salad contained a lettuce mix, some tomatoes, some pickled onions, and my choice of dressing. It was fresh but was slightly plain. Pork 'n beans - 3 stars - My husband ordered this side. He ate only a small amount of the beans and sauce, and he thought that they tasted just OK. For drinks, we had iced tea, diet Pepsi, and water. The waitresses brought refills.

Stopped into Fat Butcher in Lawrenceville expecting just to grab some meat for the week, and ended…read moreup walking out with lunch too because everything looked too good to pass up! It's a proper neighborhood butcher shop on Butler Street, the kind of place that had mostly disappeared around here. They do whole animal butchery with meat sourced from local Pennsylvania farms, and you can feel how much the folks working there care about what they're doing. It's not a huge space, just a display case full of cuts, a wall of house made goods, and a small sandwich menu, but that's part of the charm. The staff were friendly and happy to point me in the right direction. The sandwiches are what really got me though. The smash burger is fantastic, a double patty on a challah bun with that special sauce, and you can actually taste the quality of the beef, which makes sense given the whole operation is built around good meat. I also grabbed some of their house made pastrami, and it did not disappoint, tender and full of flavor. Knowing everything is made in house, right down to the bacon and sausages, makes it even better. If you live nearby and don't have a butcher yet, this is the one.

Love the decor in the shop. There were many prepared food options in the fridge, as well as various cuts of meat/preparations of it. We got two sandwiches, the cheesesteak and the marbella. I dont think we ended up with the correct order because we didn't end up with a cheesesteak, but did not realize until we got home. I'm positive that if I went back to the shop they would've remedied the situation, but I didn't feel it was necessary! The sandwich we did end up with was good as well, unsure which one it was though. Very fair prices, and our dog was so happy we brought him home a bone as well! Looking forward to coming back and trying everything they have to offer.

They don't open until 4, but you can place orders online hours before then. Picked up food around 4:20. By time we got home, the fish maintained its crispness. I was actually quite impressed with how well it was prepared. Nice and flaky but didn't fall apart. The bun it comes on is well proportion with the fish. The only thing I could've went without, was the macaroni salad topped on the fish. However, the food here never disappoints. I'll be back.

Shake was incredible. I got the turtle shake cause some portion gets donated to PGH aquarium for turtles. The habanero wings were crispy and good, but small. The burger was underwhelming. There was little to no seasoning on anyone's burger or fries. There's one shot to make a good impression so we come back and repeatedly spend the $112.69 on my family at happy hour. I'm sad to report that we will likely not be back. The ambiance was phenomenal, and we liked our server, Crystal (?? I think. She was very nice and attentive). The cornbread was also bland, and was supposedly jalapeño cheddar. Honey butter lacked salt, which is imperative for good honey butter.
