Worst Restaurant in Pittsburgh
By amandopolis on 08/26/2007
I ate here with my boyfriend, and not only were the hosts rude, the food was horrible. The only thing that kept me from marching the shit they served me right back to the kitchen was our friendly waitress. But seriously, for $25 I expect a lot better than a piece of vacuum packed salmon thrown on a grill (they didn't even ask me for a temp) with literally no seasoning whatsoever. My boyfriend's duck was over cooked. Everything was bland and boring. Our g&ts were flat, and took so long to sort out, we couldn't even order wine with dinner. The microgreens on our (booooring) tuna tartar were wilted and brown. This place expects you to fall for the high prices and think you're getting something good, when really you're just getting the same food you could get a block down at the Harris for cheaper.

Service couldn't have been better, however, the food at the prices was mediocre. I had the Pad Thai. Can you say bland?

Want to meet new people? go to the Soba Lounge. Unique menu in an interesting environment. They have the most friendly wait staff in the Pgh area. Enjoy!
