They didn't have high chairs when we got seated, but the staff was so accommodating and quickly ran across the street to borrow some from another restaurant. The host gave us a rundown of the place and all of the different areas: board games, bocce courts, arcade games, old school gaming systems and TVs, golf bays, and putting green. Some activities were free and some needed a gaming card to play. There are dining tables and bar stools inside, as well as picnic tables and more seats at the bar outside. It was a beautiful night, so all of the large windows were open. Their bar included signature cocktails and mocktails, as well as limited beer and wine options. The food menu wasn't very extensive, but we tried the buffalo chicken dip, caprese dip, guacamole and queso, Thai chicken tacos, and a flatbread. The food came out quickly, and everything was pretty good; it wasn't anything spectacular, but decent to snack on while you play games and enjoy the atmosphere.

It took forever to get drinks and a few of the workers were a bit rude - "I'm not your server". The food menu is pretty small - mostly snacks. The avocado toast is excellent!

Once we saw and met the team we'd be working with for our big day, we knew 100% that we had made the right decision. Lauren, Rachel and Erin were and are so very helpful in all of our decision making. We cannot say thank you enough to not only this venue- but also the staff and vendors here that we chose to work with. Everyone was always very accommodating, helpful, and our questions were always quick to be answered. Ourselves and our guests can't say enough about how terrific the food was. Not only did they listen to our ideas decoration choices, but they helped bring them to fruition. The venue is beautiful with plenty of space for all your guests and parking. Don't look anymore, choose Bella Sera! Thank you, Thank you, and THANK YOU! Brad & Genevia 10/28/2016

I was extremely disappointed with the Mother's Day brunch experience this year. My family and I had…read morevisited before and absolutely loved the atmosphere and food, which is why I encouraged my family to celebrate here for Mother's Day. Unfortunately, this visit was nothing like our previous experiences. This was not a cheap brunch, yet it lacked some of the most basic brunch offerings -- no omelet station, no waffles, pancakes, or the variety that was offered in the past. The food overall was very disappointing and nowhere near worth the price. What made it even worse was the dessert area. Once desserts ran out, they were never refilled, and several members of my family never even had the chance to try them. For the amount charged, this is unacceptable. I even asked the host about the omelet station they used to offer and was told it was removed because the lines would get too long. That is not a good excuse. Other brunch places like Grand Concourse still manage to offer omelet stations, waffle stations, eggs, meats, and much more at a similar or even lower price point. I left embarrassed and disappointed after recommending this place to my family for such a special occasion. Sadly, we will not be returning, and I would not recommend this brunch experience to others looking for a quality Mother's Day celebration.

Flat out - this place sucks!…read more I was at the wedding reception of a close friend's son recently. The reception was held at Noah's Southpointe location. For what I thought was a rather hefty fee, the venue offered little. They did no setup. They did furnish tables and chairs, but the setup was totally on the renter. They offered no table trimmings, no centerpieces, no nothing. Tablecloths only. The teardown was limited to tables, chairs and linens - and the laundering of the linens was an extra charge. They wouldn't handle any centerpieces, that was all on the renter. The food prep area is tiny, and offers no warming apparata at all. All cooking and holding of food at temperature must be done outside of the venue. The caterers were tripping over themselves trying to serve the guests. The acoustics of the room are absolutely horrendous. Aside from a couple of [small] panels on the back wall, the room is totally hard surfaces. The DJ did what he could, but the sound is either no volume or booming echos. There is no outdoor seating, so smokers, or those who just wanted a few moments away form the crowd and noise, were reduced to sitting on window sills or curbs. A decent fire hall would hands down do better than Noah's Southpointe.

Anything that I asked them to do was either answered with an "I Can Do That", or I was provided with an immediate suggestion or solution.

We have a social membership at the club which allows us to participate in everything except golf…read more They have many activities during the warmer months which includes but is not limited to a bocce ball league, wine and whiskey events, a big holiday party in December and events around the holidays (Memorial Day, July 4 and Labor Day). They have a pool and feature a lot of events for the kids e.g. movies nights). Keep in mind though that all of these activities are an extra charge in addition to your membership fees. There is a $500 minimum food and beverage requirement every 6 months (Jan-Jun) and (Jul-Dec). There's also a $40 per month service charge for the servers, but that means you don't really need to tip. However, we always leave our server a few extra bucks. I love the ambiance. They are in the process of renovating. We like to eat at the bar or sit on the upstairs covered terrace and enjoy spectacular views of the golf course. The service is always outstanding -- attentive and friendly. Food: Breakfast and lunch are great value. I love their omelettes and some lunch items. Dinner, in my opinion, is not good value. It is pricey and mediocre. However, I love their "make your own pasta" on Wednesdays -$20 which includes a mini buffet of two salads, a soup, pizza, a couple of entrees (e.g. sausage and peppers, meatballs) and dessert. They also do on Thursdays a "Member Appreciation" entree which is also reasonably priced. Recently, we went on a Thursday. My husband got the Member Appreciation entree which was prime rib for $20 and I got the Spots and Crab for $42 (pic attached). All entrees come with choice of soup or salad and two sides. Prime rib was really good. Spot and Crab was okay. I really enjoy the club. It's a good hang and opportunities to get decent value.

Public skating here is fine…read more I have had nothing but bad experiences in the programs for learning to play hockey that my kids have participated in, culminating in my son's attempt to play in what they called a developmental league. There were maybe 15 kids in the program, with no teams, bad coaches, and no communication. My attempts to learn more and eventually get a refund went unheeded for weeks. Note that the various hockey clubs that use the rink may be different and are not run directly by the rink.

Disclaimer: this review is from the perspective of a parent of a youth amateur hockey player…read more This ice rink has a lot going for it: aestheticly nice, well lit, nice dressing rooms, good ice surface, and ample parking. But aside from the ample parking, what matters to me? Coffee. And this place has vending machine coffee and no snackbar. Blech. A positive is the temperature inside the rink. While decidedly cool, it isn't a meat locker and that's important when you are essentially stationary for an hour. It has a 100% functioning scoreboard, also a huge nice to have. On the downside, the players benches and penalty box obscure the view along the boards. Rinks where the benches are opposite the bleachers are better. If f this place had fresh coffee I would give the rink 4 stars - but they don't so they get a 3.

This is a really cool park near Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, and Target around Upper St. Clair that I…read morelike to stop at whenever I'm in the area. The trail is great for beginners or if you just want a quick jog. There are several benches you can sit down on along the way, plus a tree stump in the woodsy part that you can also sit on to rest. It's a very well maintained trail that smells like freshly cut wood chips, and has a nice variety of terrain. I didn't see any dog poop (it's a no-dog park) and no litter at all, which the multiple trash cans around the loop definitely help with. While a good portion of the trail has the wood chips, some areas could use a bit more. After rain, a few spots can get muddy and it can get a little marshy in the grassy part where there is no trail. The outer loop is about 1.2 miles, and there are several spots where the trail branches off. There's a more "woody" section and a more "grassland" section, which keeps it interesting. It's also not hard to find parking at the church across the street. There's a lot of birds chirping and tons of squirrels and bunnies, and every once in a while you'll spot deer. Inside the barn fence there are lambs and sometimes horses, which is a nice touch. Also kind of cool is that there are wild chive plants around this trail which is common in the Pittsburgh area, and you'll find some growing in the park if you know what to look for.

This place is incredible. We stopped today for their Community Open House event, and even though I…read morehave been here in the past, it is always nice getting to see it again. The old house, and farm are really special, and I am so glad that the Upper St. Clair Historical Society maintains these buildings and property so we can occasionally get to visit and see how things used to be. Today they had all kinds of activities going on, from hayrides, petting zoo, sheep shearing, cow milking, yarn spinning, beekeeping, and of course tours of the historic house, barn and outbuildings, all of which are like a museum. This place was well worth the price of admission . . . FREE, but the suggested donation was $5 per person.

The pool area was clean and warm, and there was a nice area across the street with a couple of places to eat, enjoy cocktails, and play games. There was also a shopping center about two miles away, which was very convenient. If we're ever in the area again, we will definitely book here again.
