I've been missing Josza's Corner and was very excited because I know the excellent work that Csilla Thackray has done over the past decade in restaurants like the Vandal and Legume. Titusz absolutely did not disappoint. They have a great menu, excellent service, and a delightful ambiance. The Ramp Soup, for example was delicious as were the Dumplings and the Lángos. There is limited seating, so this is a difficult reservation to get, however we enjoyed everything about our evening. A number of the dishes on the menu are seasonal, so I look forward to seeing how these dishes change over the year. read more

Titusz is located in Lawrenceville in the old Merchant Oyster Co. The space is beautiful! The service was incredible. I wasn't sure what wine to order, but my server was very helpful with a suggestion - I loved it! Prices were reasonable too. We started with 2 appetizers - the fried potato bread and cheese dumplings. Both were great & I especially loved the broth that the dumplings came in. I had the stuffed cabbage and my friend had the chicken paprika. The stuffed cabbage was really good but the sauce was very, very tomato-y. My friend enjoyed his chicken & it looked delicious. Everything was good but each dish was almost missing something to make "it." But again, it was all good and I would definitely come back, especially for dessert! read more

We had a lovely late dinner here. Service was really great, some of the best we've ever had. The menu is small but has a decent variety. Prices are reasonable for the high quality and care taken in cooking. Appetizers are pretty small but everything we tried was delicious, especially the crostini with the spread. Our entrees were very good and prepared with care. My chicken was perfectly cooked and very moist. Special shout out to the bread. It's truly outstanding. My barrier to that fifth star is that everything could use just a bigger punch of flavor. The paprikash was more tomatoey than paprikaish IYKWIM. The violet sorbet just tasted sweet, very little violet flavor at all. We will definitely go back to try what we missed this time around! read more

We made resys months ago, excited for an Austrian-Hungarian concept. We arrived and were greeted. We were sat upstairs by the railing, which have an interesting view of the downstairs. Service was kind and friendly, though not particularly attentive. We weren't checked on as the courses came out. Food wise: - Cheese dumplings: It was flattened and fried, not what I had expected. The burnt taste overpowered the dumplings. - Potato salad: Good but wasn't served warm as traditionally done - Pickles: Carrots and beets were nicely done. I found the potato a bit overpowering - Radish: Good flavor, fresh radish - Paprika chicken: Glad it was two pieces, making sharing easy. There wasn't much spatzle and our chicken was a bit cold. It had been sitting for a while before it made it to our table. Overall, it has promise. Maybe working through a few things or an off night. Curious to try again to see if it is better. read more

Titusz is a new Austrian and Hungarian restaurant in Lawrenceville and we had to try every single food item they offer! It's where the old Merchant Oyster Company used to be and there's a small bar, some tables on the ground floor, and some other tables on the mezzanine. They only take reservations for up to groups of 6. What you need to do after you snag that coveted reservation is to get three friends to come with you and also order everything because you'll want to try it all!  We enjoyed their well balanced and unique cocktails and tried almost all of them. All our food items were so flavorful and it's hard to pick favorites but I would have to say the fried potato bread, dumplings, soup, chicken, and sorbet were my top picks! Pro tip: pay the $4 for the second order of their delicious bread and use it to soak up the sauces from your entrees. read more

This restaurant is a nice addition to Lawrenceville. The Erdapfelsalat (Austrian potato salad) was perfect but the Beer Bratwurst needed something to make it a go-to. Downstairs is a bit crowded and noisy. Will try for balcony reservations next time. read more

Titusz - Bar Area - Hungarian Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Titusz is a welcome addition to Pittsburgh--nice to have a different flavor profile. The food is very good--I love the langos and the desserts in particular, and the bread and butter is fantastic. The portions are great for sharing. The beverage program really shines, with thoughtful wine pairing suggestions from the bartender and great cocktails. If I had limitless funds I would return frequently to try all of the interesting wines. It's a cute and tiny space. Bar seats get a bit uncomfortable after a while. read more

A welcome addition to Lawrenceville! Hungarian fine-dining with lovely seasonally inspired Eastern European fare, with a balanced menu containing plenty of vegetarian options. The restaurant space is open, with soaring ceilings that give the small space a less claustrophobic feel than most similarly sized Pittsburgh restaurants. The service was excellent here, though we had an early 5pm reservation. And they are surprisingly kid friendly! read more

What a great addition to Lawrenceville! Titusz brings a unique Austrian and Hungarian concept to the burgh. Plus the space is bright, airy, and beautifully designed with two levels of seating. The cocktail and wine list was impressive, with fun NA options. I tried the NA dill dairy drink which was super light and refreshing. We started with house bread, then tried the kaspressknödel (cheese dumplings) and langos (fried potato bread and tangy cheese topfen). The langos was a standout, though I wish the dumplings came with more pieces. For mains, the stuffed cabbage (with rice and mushrooms) and roasted duck leg were both amazing. The duck leg was our favorite because of the sweet and tart apricot reisling reduction that made me want more and more with each bite!! We finished with the rich chocolate chestnut cake (Titusz torte). They were also very accommodating to my toddler, and the staff were incredibly kind. Can't wait to come back for more!! read more

Wow! This place has easily became one of my top 10's in Pittsburgh. This Austrian/Hungarian concept is an awesome addition to Lawrenceville. We were able to snag a reservation when it first opened. From the start of dinner everything was great. The service was attentive and friendly. The food was incredible. Very lovely dishes and different flavors than I've had a lot. The dishes are simple, yet elevated and exploding with flavor. Some of my favorites were the Kaspressknödel, Liptauer, Csirke Paprikás, Walleye and Violet Sorbet. The cocktails featured tons of Austrian/Hungarian liqueurs and flavors that went perfect with our meal. I can't wait to see this place thrive! The overall vibe was cozy and relaxed. read more

We absolutely loved this place! The kitchen nailed every plate -- from the Kaspressknödel (which Tyler rightly steered us toward pairing with the Pickles over the Salat and Sorrel Soup) to the Walleye, which had a phenomenal sear. Bobby and Abby out front were genuinely warm, welcoming, and accommodating; they made sure we were comfortable and taken care of all night. The interior refresh is absolutely stunning. A fantastic opening, and we can't wait to go back! read more

What a great new spot in town! I've never had Hungarian food before but we truly did not have a bad dish! The space is really beautiful and the staff were super attentive and had good recommendations. You have to get the fried potato bread (I'm not a cheese person but it was very mild cheese) and the cheese dumplings (also was a nice mild cheese). For mains, our table tried the duck, bratwurst, chicken, and walleye. We all loved our food, you can't seem to go wrong with the mains. The chicken paprikash is the star as a Hungarian spot and was very flavorful, the sauce was good. I really liked my walleye too, it was perfectly cooked. My friend loved her duck with apricot polenta. Bratwurst was also really good. The drinks were fabulous as well. I liked the gin cocktail with honey and the old fashioned-like rye drink was great. There's good wines too! For dessert, the violet sorbet was stunning and the Titusz torte was good if you like chocolate. You have to check them out! read more

I thought the service when we went a week ago was excellent and the food was good to excellent ( potato salad, bratwurst, fish, stuffed cabbage, pickles, bread, chocolate cake). My issue is how this restaurant can justify $31 for a single link of bratwurst. My cocktail was good but I was surprised at the meager pour of red wine (barely 4 ounces). I will return, despite the prices. Nice ambiance. read more

Like trying different things but first get a full menu and see what pique my interest!!
