Better than bar food! Group of us came here for food and drinks. Friday night and not super busy (yet) so they seated us right away. The drink - damn was that a smooth old fashioned. Notes of spice, wood, nuts, and slight fruit. The taste was great, but just smelling it was pretty intense. The salmon dish was great. The ginger carrot mash was seasoned and puréed enough that it didn't taste like eating just carrots. They cooked the salmon too perfectly to my liking. The service was excellent too - laid back, friendly but they didn't play either about getting your order on time. Solid bar/restaurant, 8.5 / 10. read more

The description of the avocado and eggs dish was not properly explained on the menu. They simply slice led the avocado in half (with the skin still on) and put eggs on top of them. If I would have known I would have ordered something else. I sent that back and got the Cajun shrimp Benedict. That was ok, but they added fried eggs instead of poached eggs that I did not ask for. Since I did not want to send back again, I just sucked it up. The service could have been better in that regard. The ambiance is just ok. read more

I know i was wasted when i came here, ( bc bar crawl ) but that was the BEST giant pretzel I have EVER had. The beer cheese was SO GOOD. And the general tsos cauliflower is always delicious. I got the scream queen cocktail and it was AMAZING. Great service and always a good ambiance, We never skip this place because we all know its gonna be fire. They always have the best cocktails, both taste wise and appearance. The only thing I didn't like was that they gave me an unbloomed rose in my drink and then didn't give me the drizzle it was supposed to have on the rose, and i know this because my friend ordered the same drink after trying mine, and hers had a fully bloomed flower and sugar drizzle and was super done up... so that kinda wasn't cool. It was still delicious and it's not a big deal, and I'm sure someone else made the drink. But L bartender for that. 10/10 will always be a fav spot read more

Great place with LOTS of beer on tap. Food was good and reasonably priced. We had the Tap burger, which came with a side (we chose fries) - big and thick, fries were good $15. We also had the short ribs burger $18 and rigatoni ala vodka with chicken$29. Good ambience, bar scene so pretty loud on a Sunday night during football season. Oh almost forgot to mention their cocktail was delicious! I had the Key lime Martini, which was a dessert in itself! Very good!! read more

Great place for groups, great place for brunch, and great place for happy hour! Seriously, the happy hour deals are amazing and you don't want to miss them. You also don't want to miss the Brussels sprouts. They are crispy, cheesy, and perfectly done. read more

I went to the South Side location twice in October! Both times were with slightly larger groups in the evening; we also had people arrive at different times, and the servers accommodated this with grace. The food and drinks are consistently so good!! The fall seasonal cocktails are fabulous, as are the classic cocktails. They truly have the best happy hour in the city; $5 for classic cocktails & $7 for seasonal cocktails is a steal!! I'm a big fan of the Caesar salad. The side of fries are great, as are the short rib poutine fries. read more

A group of 5 of us had brunch reservations one recent Sunday during "Summerween". The Urban Tap really embraced the pseudo holiday with tons of decorations, lighting, and special menu items. Our server was very friendly and prompt with service, despite it being very busy. Our food and drinks came out quickly and everything was fresh and delicious. A friend ordered the banana bread French toast and said that it was good, but so dense and sweet. The plate was basically several thick slices of chocolate chip banana bread turned into French toast. I'd recommend getting it for a shared dessert for the table. The injectable donut holes were a fun app that was enjoyed by the whole group. We thought the prices were on par for a slightly elevated brunch in the Pittsburgh area. I would definitely come back, regardless of theme. read more

I met my cousins for brunch here during their Christmas in July weekend. In addition to their regular brunch menu, they had a special Christmas menu as well. The cocktail and food item (eggs Benedict) that I ordered was not particularly Christmas themed but the food and drinks were good! The portions are generous as well. Our waitress was great and had the perfect balance of checking in regularly, but not too often. The only reason I deducted a star is because it was really warm in there. Even with the fans blowing, it was hot. lol other than that, it was a good experience. read more

We stopped by on Friday 12/27 around 8pm. There was a good amount of people there for a random Friday between two major holidays but we were able to get a table for five right away. We wanted to try the holiday cocktails that were part of the Southside Tinsel Tour but there was some confusion. We were told they didn't have them anymore and so we ordered off the regular menu. A few minutes later we were told they did still have the holiday menu so we happily ordered cocktails off of that. The drinks were very charming and festive with cute little ornaments. They tasted pretty good for what they were and we were happy that we were able to order them after all. We got our drinks and a side of tots and after that no one ever came back to check on us. After a being there about an hour and a half, I got up to look for our server but couldn't find her. I asked someone at the bar about getting our checks and he closed us out immediately and came over to get our cards. He was really nice and apologized saying that our server disappeared and he couldn't find out and gave us 50% off our drinks for the inconvenience. read more

Went for the Summerween themed brunch bc the past few themed brunches were 10/10. Giving 4 stars only because it was 85 degrees & humid outside & they didn't seem to have tar AC on. It was HOT inside, we were dripping in sweat. But other than that everything was great. The service was awesome & the food was delicious! I ordered the shrimp & grits which was 10/10 I would order it again & again. We also ordered the waffle board which is always a great choice, I'm obsessed with the buttercream on top. Can't wait for the next themed brunch! read more

Great place for brunch with a variety of foods. The front windows were open to let the breeze and outside in. The crab cake benedict was delicious, but a bit hard to eat and enjoy The patty was thick, and the dish tall. It fell over each time I cut a bite. Would go back again, and the staff was friendly and professional! Wide variety of dribk options. read more

Such a good happy hour spot it is becoming a weekly thing for me! $5 classic cocktails Monday-Friday 4-6:30 such a steal. Something about their aperol spritz just hit so hard I love the big glasses they serve them in, it makes me feel like I'm in Italy again! The tuna crispy rice was unreal I wasn't expecting it to be so fresh. Will definitely be back for this next week read more

We're pretty happy we stopped in and caught their happy hour. It wasn't super busy, so finding a table was easy. Our waiter was super nice and gets a multitude of kudos for setting my purse aside when I forgot it. We're from WI, so we take cheese curds pretty seriously. Their's had no egg- a perk for avoiding hub's allergy list. The batter was light and wonderfully salty with a squeeze of lemon that helped balance it. The marinara was also delicious. The $5 cocktails are a pretty amazing deal. The cocktails are legit. I love a place that doesn't skimp, and both drinks were a delight. We also tried the pulled pork nachos, and were pleased. We couldn't finish all our food, but we were more than satisfied with everything we ordered. They definitely deserve a visit, especially if you catch their happy hour! read more

Awful service, food may be good but I wouldn't know as after waiting &being ensured our food was coming we had to leave to attend a show. The hostess greeted us with " do you have a reservation " reply no but will be quick as we had a play to attend her reply " good you'll be gone in time " gee thanks made me feel welcome when we realized it was too late to eat asked waitress for to go boxes & check never got either had to leave saw our waitress talking to another waitress she ran after us saying is coming we continued to walk out Will NEVER go again & recommend not going unless you want rude & slow service. Also if you plan on conversing with your dinner companions forget it ...the music & acoustics make it impossible read more

The short rib poutine was a dream! Probably my favorite thing we tried. We really enjoyed the drinks, atmosphere, and appetizers. I tried the bacon onion jam burger and it was a little on the dry side. I'd suggest asking for it to be cooked medium instead of medium well. A paid parking lot is just a few steps away. We'd definitely return! read more

I came here a few times a couple years back but stopped after the head chef was replaced. Noticed the burger quality went down. Cant really speak on the food now since it's been awhile and you'll have to hogtie me to get me anywhere to eat in southside these days The cauliflower general Tso's was bomb. Not overly breaded with a good sauce that had a tiny kick to it. Their tater tots are arguably the best I've ever had. Flakey squares with a great crisp, soft inside and doesn't taste like a pile of grease It's a gastropub in SouthSide so if you're not familiar with the area it's exactly what you'd expect. Hipster vibes, and not TOTALLY slammed with college kids because of the prices but if brunch expect people getting trashed. Loved it back in the day but now wouldn't be the craziest for me. Go to shady side for calmer vibes if wanna try read more

Great casual spot, love how they always have themed events and menu options for the holidays. I prefer to come eat there for a nice brunch!

I came to this place while visiting Pittsburg because of the happy hour specials. They had $5 cocktails and that had me sold. We got sat right away and I ordered the grilled ginger sesame chicken sandwich with fries and that was alright , I really just needed some food on my stomach. I started off with a strawberry mule which was good. Then I got another drink forgot the name but it had champagne it. I would come again when it town for the happy hour drinks. read more

We had a larger group to celebrate a friend. Our waitress was great. Drinks came out fast and service was on point. We started with Fried Cheese Curds and Brussel Sprouts, both were really good. There was a large variety of items ordered for main course and everyone was complimentary about their meal. The Nashville Hot Fried Chicken sandwich was good with a nice heat and sweetness combo. read more

In a word...AWESOME! Their food is fantastic. Their grits are incredible! We were so pleased with our meal-we will definitely be back. Our server was terrific. I'm somewhat selective (some could call me picky), but I asked for things to be removed and it was no problem at all. Great atmosphere. A great place to socialize and catch up with friends. I definitely liked the Southside location better than the Shadyside; not sure why, the vibe seemed more inviting perhaps. read more

Xavier was a great server and made great recommendations. We loved everything we tried from the tuna and crisp rice appetizer, to the fried haddock sandwich and the shrimp and bacon sandwich.

My husband and some friends came to urban tap on Saturday 10/14 for brunch. My husband got the chicken and waffles - he said the chicken was dry and wished it came with more syrup but overall rated it a 8.5/10. I got the Crab Benedict which was delicious and favorful. I would have preferred not so much arugula but overall 9.0/10. I also got the mimosa flight. The OJ and Apple Cidar was my favorite. The cranberry and pear was not a hit for me. Overall - we will be returning. I forget our waitress name but she was on top of it and made sure we were taken care of. read more
