Hi everyone,

I really enjoyed the suggestions I got last time about good places to eat in Cleveland from this site and I was wondering if anyone knew of some good places in Pittsburgh?

Any suggestions would be great!

Thanks!

primanti bros is the number one destination in my book. famous fry stuffed sandwiches. hit up the original on the strip:

btw the one in fort lauderdale is just as good!

 

There was an outstanding restaurant next to the hotel I was staying in. Sonoma Grille on Penn Avenue.

Tonic in downtown Pittsburgh has some great small plates.

Or the South Side - As good as it looks:

 

Or how about Wiener World? It must be good:

I like Fat Heads on the south side-the sandwiches are outrageous and the beer selection great. For German tavern , Max's Allegheny Tavern. the schnitzels are the best. I heard this place it good, kitchey, but have never been- http://doublewidegrill.com/.

 

that foodnetwork show diners driveins and dives (or something like that) did a show, you may want to try and look it up.

 

ps Rob-isnt Primanti's in the strip district? is there more than one?

india garden

a bunch of the oakland restaurants offer half price dinner items after ten.  mad mex and india garden are the two on the top of my list.  if you eat hot dogs, you should eat a hot dog at the O.  there's a few good pizza places too.  when I was a kid we ordered from mineos.

Over on the South Hills there are a ton of little family owned Italian joints that have incredible food, friendly service, and a really interesting dining experience as it feels like they are stuck in the early 80s.  My 100% Sicilian grandma had her 75th birthday party at one of these places, and it was a great experience.  Also, Lydia's in the Strip District is pretty solid.
