    Our experience occurred 8/3 when out celebrating a friend's bday. The reason for the late review is b/c I've been recovering from a shoulder injury I received as a direct result of their general manager, Paul Colella, assaulting me in the women's restroom. Going to try to keep it to the character limit given but will also be making a more detailed public fb post which can hopefully be found just by searching the business name, not on their page tho b/c reviews are turned off like every s*** business does. we needed help getting our sick friend out safely, which is when "management"responded. They made their annoyance clear from the start, the 1st manager shaming us for "letting her drink so much", like there's not a law holding businesses accountable for overserving. GM Paul looks into the bathroom & says to the first guy they're "probably going to need a forklift". My wife & I immediately call him out on being rude & unnecessary. He claims he meant "for cleaning products" but when asked what kind of cleaning products would need that, he gets agitated and snaps back w/ "I didn't say forklift, I said PALLET. Look at that mess." It's a one person bathroom & the "mess" was confined to being on our friend, part of the floor, & in the trash; my wife was also already helping clean up. I then state I'm going to close the door for privacy since they weren't helping&call 911 ourselves, & begin to close it. Paul shoves the door back into me with so much force, knocks me off balance, then slams&holds me against the sink, bending me backwards so hard my right shoulder hits the faucet leaving an abrasion at point of contact. The only area I touched him was his suit jacket trying to get this massive being off me. His people behind him are yellin "get HIM out of here!" (at me) for "slamming the door in his face". I state clearly I'm a WOMAN & even after letting go & stating twice "I let go, get OFF" , he wouldn't let up until his people stepped in. My wife even attempted to get him away and received a nasty bruise on her arm. Im 5'5 & 120 lbs, he's roughly 245+lbs. I'd confidently say he "recklessly caused bodily injury", as there wasn't a single justifiable reason for the GM to have touched me at all, let alone burst into the women's restroom to assault me. Never got in his face or said anything remotely threatening. I truly believe he wrongly assumed we were all drunk & he'd be able to get away with w/e, esp in the restroom where there aren't cameras. if I had access to footage from that night, I could prove I wasn't drunk,threatening,or inappropriate to anyone at any point. Paul must have a very fragile ego coupled w/ serious anger issue if he couldn't handle someone calling him on his bs. I'm allowed to speak up for myself & others, but Paul doesn't have the right to assault people solely because he doesn't like it. I had marks&bruising to my knee,thigh, middle back, &neck. The injury has forced me off work since 8/13 & will be off at least another 4-6 weeks as I do PT to restrengthen my shoulder. I have a grade 1 SLAP tear, 2 sprained tendons (supraspinatus & infraspinatus), &tenosynovitis from the trauma to my shoulder. I should've graduated w/ my MA in criminal justice this winter but had to withdraw from the semester &delay it b/c of this. Also, can't claim injuries given to yourself during your assault of someone nor marks from rightfully defending myself. Dude's twice my size&was on ME the entire time. Lunging at the door I stated I was closing while doing so also doesn't count. Paul did attempt an "apology" before we left, showing some level of knowing what he did wasn't ok. Strongly encourage anger management before you end up w/ a serious lawsuit&charges. There's more to management than just compulsive "promo-ing".

    BEST PITTSBURGH WING…read more We were absolutely not expecting this and still can't believe it. We didn't have major expectations but hoped it would be at least a top 5 wing and average meal. It was beyond that The French onion soup we saw online and everyone seemed to enjoy that. We're whores for it so had to get. I like mine a tad bit salty which this was and PACKED with onion chunks and breaded leeks on top. It was impossible to get a spoon fully without any inclusions. My new favorite The Tavern Burger. I'm coming fresh off 9 years without 5 Guys (elite) and this rocked me harder than that. This isn't a stupid smash burger. We got a juicy COOKED PERFECT RARE 8oz patty, topped with sautéed onions, and bacon that isn't crisped to smithereens. I like my bacon medium rare and that's exactly what I got. Then covered in one of the craziest sauces I have ever had, their gorgonzola cream. I could drink that by the gallon The wings.... I have never had a wing itself cooked more perfect in my life. The smoke and meatiness on them was so nailed that I could get 2 dozen plain and still have the same reaction. We got the Buffalo Garlic and Dry Cajun Ranch. These wings don't need drenched in sauce by any means or it would honestly ruin it. The buffalo doesn't ned to be creamy either. Perfect amount of sauce to cheese ration. The dry cajun ranch was a fucking knockout. For how great the wing is I would love to see more dry season options with them Cam got a Tavern Dip. I hate dips. I loved the shaved ribeye on it and horseradish, but I have never been an Au Jus man. Would 100000% eat it without the au jus Then the fries. Always team psoriasis through and through. Not sure if I'm coming off the Five Guys high but their cajun boardwalk style are even better. Get some spicy honey aioli to dip them in. Truly just shocked at how amazing this place is. Right over the bridge and cannot recommend enough going here before a game and walking over. Great spot right before, after and during sports. Very high Pittsburgh atmosphere going on I will be back so many times and absolutely worth going Downtown for

Unfortunately that's were the good ends. First and always foremost, how was the food? An absolutely mess. Impossible to enjoy bc the sandwich falls apart immediately, simply can not pick up without losing everything inside, and greasy as all get out. I should have expected this to an extent, but a nearly $20 grilled cheese at a place that "specializes" in them, I would hope could do better than this. Service was very, very slow despite many open seats. The part that probably sent it over the top was the plate runner constantly spilling the tomato soups everytime they brought out someone's meal. Mine dripped all of the ground as he sat it down, my wife's got on her tray so the bread was just mushy on the bottom, and we saw it constantly as he walked by delivering others. Cool idea, cool location, but the rest was just bad.

    We went there after being discouraged at another bar on Carson Street. We were not that hungry,…read moreso, upon our waitress' recommendation, we tried a pepperoni pizza, thinking that we could order more if it proved to not be enough. It was probably the best pepperoni pizza I have ever had. The high point of the evening, was our waitress. I wish I knew her name. She was very helpful, attentive, and friendly. She treated two old people just like we were 30. One caveat though. The steaks on stones looked and smelled delicious, but the prices might be a bit high. It depends on how much you enjoy steak, I think. If you are a steak eater, I'm pretty sure you will be happy. Maybe we can find out next trip.

    My wife and I were really looking forward to trying North Shore Tavern after seeing it on TikTok,…read morebut unfortunately our experience was very disappointing. We came in after 9 PM and waited about 20 minutes without ever receiving water or having our order taken. Our server did acknowledge us at one point and mentioned that she had two other tables ahead of us, which we completely understood. However, we later noticed another table that was seated after us being helped before we were. Meanwhile, no one came back to check on us or even bring us water. We also asked the host if someone could help us, but were told she couldn't because she wasn't a server and that our server would eventually get to us. After waiting that long with no service, my wife and I decided to leave. We were genuinely excited to eat here, so it was disappointing to walk out without even getting the opportunity to try the food. I understand restaurants can get busy, especially later in the evening, but even a quick check-in, some water, or better communication would have made a big difference.

Both times, there we four of us and we never had an issue being seated as walk-ins. Service was friendly and the food was above average for a sports bar and grill. On my first visit, I ordered grilled chicken wings with a cup of minestrone soup and a draft of Archer beer. I received a glass of Angry Orchard cider, catching me off guard. No big deal, the misunderstanding was quickly replaced with the right pour. The wings were perfectly smoky, crisp and juicy. The minestrone soup wasn't bad, but the arugula on top was annoyingly in the way and flapping around when I would go in for a spoonful. I enjoyed the smokiness of the wings so much that I ordered the BBQ platter on my second visit and was not disappointed. Also, the beer was cold, service was good and prices were fair.

Then when I was ready to order the bartenders were both down at the other end of the bar. Still waiting to order. Finally after getting within earshot of the bartender I asked if I could order food with him. No problem there. Then minutes later after a 1/4 of my beer finished and no food in sight the bartender wants me to close out my tab BEFORE my food shows up. That doesn't make me feel like the customer is being accommodated vs. the workers. I'm not sure I'll be back. This place like many others have lost touch of the worker/customer rolls in the retail world. What a shame where the "service " industry has ended up after Covid.
