    I had always passed this spot but finally went in!! Absolutely beautifully decorated inside with lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Drinks were great and it is also a great spot to share a bunch of apps after work and hangout

    The atmosphere and drinks were fantastic, but unfortunately, the food was a major disappointment. We were really excited after seeing the creative and extensive menu advertised, but what we received didn't come close to matching the expectations. The drinks and ambiance were definitely the highlights, but when you're going out to eat, the food should be the star--and for us, it simply wasn't.

    Another great Pittsburgh breakfast option If you visit on a weekend, have a Cinnamon Bun! Not too sweet, just right. Every plate is creative, with very good ingredients. The room is comfortable, with indoor and outdoor seating. The service is attentive.

    Sally Ann's is named after restauranteur Richard DeShantz's mother, and it serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner in a casual setting. Through the Resy app, I made a reservation for breakfast for my husband and me. Upon our arrival, the seating hostess promptly seated us at a small, clean table. The restaurant's interior design looked colorful and interesting. The lighting was dim (so I used my cell phone's light to read the menu!). The breakfast menu listed foods such as coffee cake, banana foster bread pudding, biscuit and gravy, salmon toast, eggs Benedict, brisket hash, and sandwiches and beverages such as coffees, teas, cocktails, juices, beers, and wines. Our waitress provided courteous service, although she decided to bring out my main course as our shared appetizer and brought our drinks a bit later. Here are my reviews for what we ate: Caramel Apple French Toast - 4 stars - This French toast had two layers--a bottom one that was plain and a top one that had toppings of roasted apples, almond brittle (hard and crunchy), and caramel. Quiche Lorraine - 3.5 stars - This quiche was taller than quiches that we have seen at other restaurants. The egg custard was in the top and middle, and the bacon, onions, and cheese were on the very bottom. We would have preferred that these ingredients be mixed in, and my husband did not eat the plain egg in the top. He did like the side salad that had a not-heavy dressing. Giant Cinnamon Bun - 4.5 stars - This dessert is served only on Saturdays and Sundays and is similar to a cinnamon roll. It was a large almond streusel topped with a good amount of cream-cheese icing. My husband said that he liked it, and so did I. Hot Chocolate - 4 stars - This 12-ounce hot chocolate tasted very good. Chai Latte - 4 stars - This 12-ounce chai latte tasted very good. The total price for this meal was $56 plus sales tax, a 3% operating fee, and a tip.

    It was a beautiful sunny morning to enjoy an outside brunch with friends. It was one of a couple open earlier in the morning to grab a bite to eat after a 5k. We lucked out and were promptly seated. It was interesting that the food came out quicker than the cappuccino I ordered. The brisket and poached eggs were fantastic. I thought my breakfast overall was high value for the actual price.

    My friend and I checked out Sally Ann's for brunch on a Saturday. I was able to make a reservation online. When we arrived, we were seated right away. I started with a chai latte, which was delicious! They offer a variety of drink options including: coffee (boozy and non boozy), tea, house cocktails, n/a beverages, wine, and beer. For brunch, I ordered a version of eggs Benedict. It was a hearty meal. I also ordered a slice of coffee cake to go. It tasted different than what I am used to. It had a strong molasses flavor that I wasn't a fan of. But overall, we had a good experience and I would come back again.

    Went to Sally Anne's today, and unfortunately, the experience didn't live up to the hype. The atmosphere is nice, the drinks were good, and our service was pleasant. But at the end of the day, the food is the star -- and that's where they missed the mark. I ordered the brisket. The flavor was good, but the plate was overwhelmingly potatoes with a very small amount of brisket. My husband ordered the featured country fried steak, and his meal was much the same -- plenty of potatoes, but a disappointingly small portion of meat. For the price, we expected considerably more. The experience also got off to a rocky start when we were seated under leaking ductwork. After moving three times, we eventually settled at the counter. What was especially frustrating was that the restaurant wasn't busy, yet we weren't offered another suitable table. I really wanted to like this place, and my expectations were high. Unfortunately, they weren't even close to being met. The food felt more like basic chain-restaurant fare than something memorable or worth returning for. Good atmosphere, good drinks, and decent service -- but that's not enough to bring us back. Been there, done that. No need for a return visit.

    Our waitress was a little slow. The food came out fast but was not as good as I expected. The breakfast potatoes were a little burned but still good. The banana bread was good. Everything was just.. good but not great. The restaurant is cute.

    Enjoyed lunch at Sally Ann's with my husband today. Fish Friday!!! The Pittsburgher, cod beer batter deep fired with fries and coleslaw was delicious, always a local favorite. The Bahn Mi, cod blackened with crunchy pickled vegetables , cilantro and jalapeño was a fantastic modern take. If you're craving fish today, I highly recommend this nostalgic restaurant.

    Nice place for brunch. They do have different items in the menu depending on the time so I wish I was aware of that. Otherwise nice selection of dishes. Service was great, server was attentive and food came out in reasonable time. Salmon toast was aesthetically pleasing. The piping of the cream cheese was a bit heavy but other than that delicious dish. The side smashed potatoes were heavenly.

    Corned beef Benedict
    Altaf A.

    I really like Sally Ann's for its vibe; however, the menu and service always fall short of making it great. The place is always hopping busy so make sure you have a reservation. Really love the decor of this place. I find the menu has fairly heavy food and leaves me wanting a something in the middle between their light and hearty options. Ultimately, we went for the the corned beef benedict and the avocado toast. We tried the hash browns as a side and it came in fun square cubes. Our table didn't have a menu for the fancier coffee drinks, which we might have gone for had we seen the menu. I had a regular coffee, and it was really hard getting coffee refills or the server's attention. Service is a weird recurring issue. I've often sat at the counter, waiting for 15-20 minutes for them to give me drip coffee: and was told it's the same line as prepared coffee drinks, so we'll give it to you when the time comes... while there's a brewed pot right there. I have come here many times and will do so again, but I wish it was a bit more than it is.

    Very cool place for brunch. Service was fantastic and food was delicious. The building is decorated with cool art and repurposed doors and things. Kind of looks like a converted barn. The bathroom sink is weird, its a large tub that is shared between the men's and women's room. Check my pics to see!

    Before we saw Wicked, we stopped here for brunch. It is so conveniently located in the cultural district. We had a large party of 13 and they accommodated us perfectly (we did make reservations). Our server was on top of everything! We had great service and the food was excellent. We loved the vibe of the place and the music was excellent. The whole place gives off positive vibes.

We had a party of 11 and CM didnt miss a beat of course there were a few hiccups along the way but it was worth it! Cafe Momentum-Pittsburgh is located in the heart of downtown. The staff was outstanding and I truly love the mission of CM. We had multiple people waiting on us because of the party size! I ordered a Jamaican ginger beer ($5), the special of the evening a ribeye (medium well of course)with mushroom risotto and grilled asparagus($72). AND an extra side of their homemade biscuits! Ok sooo everything took a minute to come out but it was worth it! I had to send my steak back because it wasnt cooked enough but it was perfect when it returned! It was so much food. I only ate half of my 14-16oz steak and bought the rest BACK TO GA yall and it was even better! The sides were great and nicely seasoned! I am making it my mission to visit EVERY Cafe Momentum!

We enjoyed our appetizers: shrimp, French fries and wedge salad. The shrimp with potatoes and chorizo in a slightly spicy sauce was my favorite. For mains we got ravioli, steak, gnocchi and fried chicken. All were very good. The steak was cooked perfectly. The gnocchi were paired with a lamb bolognese--very rich! The fried chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy inside, perfectly done. And we finished with three desserts--sticky toffee pudding, apple crisp and chocolate tort. We will be back!
