    Indifferent about this place. I neither love it or hate it. Apparently, I am in the minority because the times I do opt to come here, it is usually filled with non-stop action. First off, there are several ways to get into the place so you might end up entering into a web of various activities occurring. Once you emerge from that, you need to decide if you are dining at the "pier" or the "cafe/ restaurant". The set up is very chopped up, and maze-like. Anyway, if it's a lovely day, opt for the pier side, since they have a beautiful deck, and the bar opens up to the outdoors. If you are looking to play any of the video/sports like activities, watch a game, opt for the cafe side. I still manage to confuse the dining options when checking in with the hostess. It's almost as though one might need a mini-tour of the place before committing to which side suits you. Once seating is decided, it's time for the menu selections. This is where I take a detour with my impression of the place. To me, its basic food. No real frills. No must - haves, no uniqueness to boast about. No real dissatisfaction either. However, If I can recommend anything, it is to make arrangements to be part of the pier crowd during the air show that takes place nearby. Fabulous view, and great entertainment while enjoying a cocktail or two as jets soar past overhead. No regrets with this one.

    Great views from the deck! Great food reasonably priced. Specialty drinks tasty but a bit pricey. ( no prices on drink menu). We are definitely coming back many other items to try!

    Even the tortilla chips were stale.

    Not recommend. Nothing about this place was good. The menu was not cohesive and all over the place. Nobody in our party of 3 finished any of the food including our appetizer. I feel ripped off.

    Nice greasy pepperoni pizza.

    This place has the same menu as Sharky's but an infinitely better atmosphere. I ate at Sharkeys one night and the pier the next. Being here on business this was the convenient option as it was within walking distance from the Marriott. I consulted on the thing to get as far as food and pizza was the common option for both places. I took the bartender up on the pizza option, I was not disappointed. New York ish style pizza with really good flavor. The service was top-notch and all the waitresses and bartenders were on it. If I had one criticism it would be the lack of a competent manager to keep things running smoothly. People waited for someone to seat them and people waited at their table because no one told the waitress that they were seated. I'll go back the next time I'm in town but hopefully they have a decent house manager when I do.

    Last night I went to The Pier for drinks, apps, and the Thursday night music. Every Thursday night during the spring-summer season a band will play from 8-10pm. The bands are usually local and include in a wide variety of musical selections. Onto the food & drinks. I had a Purple Rain drink, very sweet to the taste, and recommended by the waitress after discussing what I like. It was awesome. I also had the wood fired wings and skillet red pepper dip with "pizza chips". The food was excellent as always! The wings were full and juicy, while the dip was sizzling hot being served in a skillet. I will always recommend this restaurant - especially on Sunday's for BOGO wood fired pizza & bottomless mimosas during brunch.

    Wow. We went here on a whim and were pleasantly surprised. Located adjacent to regular Sharky's, The Pier at Sharkeys gives you a seaside feel with the deck seating, breeze, island decor and great music. For our appetizer we ordered the giant pretzel with four dipping sauces. Very good. For my meal I ordered the lobster mac & cheese with pasta. It was out of this world. My wife ordered the crab stuffed shrimp. You can check out the pictures below! My two small children split a woodfired pizza and it was very good as well. The only downside, and this might be nitpicking, is the price. For an appetizer,three adult drinks and the three entrées, the bill came to $74. With tip, we got out just under $100. A little pricey but that's okay. We will be back for sure. The food, atmosphere and service were terrific.

The restaurant has a very romantic vibe with low lights, and simple beautiful decor. You can also see into the kitchen, and our table had a great view. It was very cool to be able to see all the food being prepared! Now the food.... Oh my goodness. Everything was absolutely incredible. We got a few of the snacks, small plates, and finished with dessert. My boyfriend and I kept trying to pick out which dish was our favorite, but it was almost impossible. Two of our highlights were the scallop crudo (my pick) and the oyster mushrooms (his pick), but we would definitely highly recommend everything that we ordered! I wish I could eat here every day. This place is awesome. It has become one of my favorite restaurants in Pittsburgh.

The Milanese de pollo was really good but not close to Argentinian style, no fries no fried eggs included. My issue is that they use the Argentinian style label as a marketing tool and they are not even close. The price was ridiculously high for the experience.

She offered to make a chocolate martini I said ok that sounded good. My husband ordered a beer. Two minutes later. The waitress came back, and asked what we wanted to order. We were so confused . We ordered again acting like she didn't just take our order 2 minutes ago. I actually ended up changing my order and asked if they had a "house" pilot grigio. She said yes. She asked if we were going to order food and we said just drinks tonight. 5 minutes pass and she brings a large appetizer to our table. I said we didn't order this. She asked if we talked about it though . We said "no" we were never ordering food. I was so taken back by this experience I wanted to cash out after our drinks. I headed to the bar and asked for our bill. We were going to leave cash and leave because the whole situation was very uncomfortable. (Thinking 20 would be enough for the drinks and tip) We finally get the bill and the house wine is on there along with the beer. The total was $37 for 2 drinks. How can a house wine be $17 for a glass? As we left, the whole situation didnt sit right with me. I called later to ask how much a glass of house wine was and the person that answered stated $9.

Today is my birthday and I wanted to go here to celebrate with my family. Although I was craving a Supreme Pizza, others made diverse selections which I think provides a pretty conclusive picture. Bottom line is, this is a good pizza restaurant with good craft beers on tap. It is not a good upscale food restaurant . We ordered the onion rings as an appetizer. They were ok, needed some salt, but the breading was good. My husband ordered the special, surf and turf which was prime rib and crab cakes. Which was supposed to come with a salad, which he never got, and two sides. The pasta side was penne with a very bland tomato sauce, it actually tasted like straight tomato sauce from a can. And the other side was grilled veggies, which were nice. The crab cakes were very good, with very little filler. The prime rib was fatty, tough and flavorless and kind of grey. We took most of it home for the dog. By the way, it was $55. My daughter ordered the salmon salad and was very happy with it. My son had the fish sandwich and said the best part of it was the bun. The fish had been fried too long in old oil and was limp and greasy. French fries were too. Although the menu said it came with Cole slaw, which he did not get. I guess he got the fries instead. Both my husband and daughter ordered the French Onion Soup. Apparently they grill the onions, but they were burned and gave the soup a acrid flavor. Not good. My Supreme pizza was very good as always. A solid menu choice. That pizza is 5 star worthy. Water and glasses were put on the table first thing with the menus. One of the 4 glasses had salt left on the rim from someone else's Margarita. Three of us ordered beer but my husband asked for unsweetened iced tea. It came and when he tasted it, asked me to taste it. It was very watered down. He asked the waitress if she could do something about it and she said she couldn't because it came out of the fountain like that. So he ordered a ginger ale instead. He had to ask her 2 more times to get it. Once we were home I looked more closely at the bill and realized they charged us both for the gross watery iced tea and the ginger ale which replaced it. We heard a guy at the next table complaining about the iced tea too. Why not just say it was not available instead of serving a bad drink? Overall, our waitress was not the best because when I ordered a second beer, she brought me a Yeungling, which was the beer my son had ordered, not the Block House Blueberry I had originally. I kept it, I like Yeungling too. So because of the service and the overpriced special, the dirty glass and the greasy overcooked food, the rating can only be 3 stars. Pizza was 5 stars. They need to stick to what they do well which are the pizza, and forget the upscale food.
