Grandview Avenue is famous for two things: its spectacular panorama and some of the top dining in the city. Combine the two and you get the Grandview Saloon, a two-tier lounge designed to show off the scenery -- especially after sunset, when the lights of skyscrapers reflect from the water around the Point. In the warmer months, take advantage of the saloon's pride and joy: a large, sturdy deck built into the hillside, where the breeze is perfect and the city sprawls romantically toward the horizon. After a day negotiating the sloped, European-style streets of Mt. Washington, you'll be ready for happy hour, from 4 to 6PM. Follow your cocktail with a mouthwatering filet mignon, Delmonico steak or chicken czarina. Grandview Saloon can accommodate large groups as well, making it a cheerful, versatile spot for elegant dates, business meetings, an anniversary bash or a simple after-work Corona.

HORRIBLE!!!!
By Djdohmlo7 on 07/25/2008
Simply put; this is the worst "steakhouse" I've ever been to. And it is waaaay over-priced. However, the bar staff and general ambience at the bar is pleasant.

Rude owners and overpriced
By PghProud2001 on 07/22/2008
I made reservations for my family (8 ADULTS) at your site with Jasmine, she took my reservation, I told her we are going to celebrate my husband’s birthday. I requested a window seat and could you please recognize my husband with a small dessert to sing happy birthday. She said no problem, she would take care of that (especially because it was a Monday and not very crowded). We were seated by the window (with the large busy flies) and I thought we would have a great dinner. Well, one of the steaks ordered was to be medium rare but came out medium, the waitress took the steak and said no problem she would ask the chef to make one more rare but the chef/manager cooked the steak to medium well done. Everyone was finished eating before the steak hit the table. We asked to speak to the manager and Kelly P came back and said we could but we would have to go down stairs at the hostess stand to talk to him, he was the cook as well as the manager. Peter Clark was extremely rude and unprofessional (he should stay in the backyard to cook) and told us we were wrong, and he cooked the steak rare and that he cut into the filet which he did not! He said a description of how steaks are cooked was on the menu and we said it was not but he told us YES it is, inferring once again the guest is wrong! We checked the menu and told him it is not on there and he replied "it used to be". Peter Clark, Sous Chef and Manager needs some knowledge on how to treat guests. I am so disappointed for the treatment my family has received and the lack of concern for us as the guest.

THIS PLACE ROCKS!!!!
By manmgc8 on 11/17/2007
This place is so nice compared to the stuffy standards of most steakhouses! I can walk in this place in my pajamas almost and be treated like a king and be served the most mouthwatering steak and lobster you could ever imagine. I can not believe that anyone would not like this steakhouse. I have been there countless times and consistency is always on point here! Steak eaters....YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF TO TRY THIS PLACE OUT!!!!!

Gross, don't waste your time
By hutchinsonatwork on 06/25/2007
The food was horrible, service was mediocre, view was great. Don't bother ordering the jalapeño crab dip; you can make it at home with mayonnaise and fake crab. Don't order a steak approaching medium; it will be served to you so rare it is inedible. Worst martini I have ever had too. The crap concessions at Oakmont were significantly better than this place.
