The original Max & Erma's German Village opened in Columbus, Ohio, in 1972 and has since become a widespread chain. The Shadyside restaurant, in the heart of the Walnut Street shopping district, is one of several locations in Pittsburgh and surrounding areas. Positioned on the second floor of a storefront building, the restaurant, thanks to wainscoting and stained-glass windows, makes a warm, old-fashioned setting for business dining and shopping breaks. A diverse menu features comfort foods such as meatloaf and chicken pot pie. Specialty appetizers include crab-and-spinach dip and black-bean roll-ups. The gourmet burger selection includes Cajun, horseradish and portobello patties, as well as the trademark Garbage Burger, which is topped with pretty much everything you can imagine. Max & Erma's also has a variety of pasta and chicken dishes and a menu for kids 12 and under.
