Lumpy's Diner

Reviewed By Zuki C - London, United Kingdom

We went to get breakfast but were told they were no longer servimg, however; the guy at the cafe highly reccommended Lumpy's. My cousin and her family have lived in Pittsburgh for over twenty years but never knew about this place.

We were thrilled with our new find!! Thr food was amazing!! Service was second to none and the staff were fab!

We visited a few more times during my three month visit to the USA and bragged about it to everyone lol.

I miss Lumpys!! I have mad cravings for the breakfast since returning to London

Can't wait to indulge when I return to Pittsburg, hopefully in the very near future!

Lumpy's you rock!!! ❤

Steeltown Coffee & Tea

Reviewed By dbtravelor - california

This is one of my favorite places to go for a coffee meeting with a friend or my hubby. The coffee drinks are all awesome, and the chai tea is creamy and delicious. I highly recommend this for a 'slow down and enjoy the roses' kind of day!

This place is little and out of the way. I had a hard time finding it. The donuts are good, but not great.

My wife and I visit Baskin Robbins frequently, and the staff is always very friendly and helpful. If you join their email club, you get BOGO coupons quite regularly. Since they're always rotating flavors, there's always something new to try.

New Mecca Cafe

Reviewed By Kristen L - Oakland, California

I tried this place after tasting the bean dip from a coworker's leftovers. They raved about this place, and the leftover bean dip was really good, so I thought I'd give it a try. I wasn't really impressed by the "fresh" version, and the tamal was really dry. I guess I'll stick to leftovers.

Starbucks

Reviewed By 7268 - San Francisco

This is a nice Starbucks store with good service. There's plenty of seating in the dining room, and tons of parking outside. Only problem, the men's room was in dire need of some service. The sink area was clean, but there were dirty paper towels all over the floor and the toilets hadn't been flushed in well a long time.

La Veranda Restorante Italiano

Reviewed By michaelrM5717MD - Granville, Ohio, United States

Classical and authentic Italian style cuisine. I had just a very simple dinner: their Veranda Salad, the Ravioli di Giorno (with meat filling and marinara sauce), and a glass of red wine. It was very good, and so was the service. Prices are moderate especially for the quality. My dinner came to a reasonable $36 with drink, tax, and tip. If I lived in the area I would certainly come back regularly.

Cre Asian

Reviewed By alpha71 - Pittsburg, California

Great food and service. Can get a bit loud on a busy night but this doesn't affect the cozy, welcoming vibe of the restaurant. The owners are super accommodating and the waitstaff is attentive and prompt. Jamie is our favorite! So glad we live close to this branch. Beef carpaccio is worth it!

Wah Sing Chinese Restaurant

Reviewed By ricardofogel - Walnut Grove, California

I order Chinese food from Wah Sing restaurant every month. The food is great and I'm not just saying that. I am very picky when it comes to Chinese food because not every Chinese food restaurant tastes good. If you have eaten at Panda express or the food court at a mall than your taste buds will have a treat if you eat the food from Wah Sing. I am not saying anything bad about Panda Express but, I don't like the taste. That's just my choice. Wah Sing has fair pricing and alway's never too packed to find a table for your family. It has nice people and friendly staff. Inside is alway's clean. Each order to go is a little over $8 each and three items will cost at least $30. My favorite is combination fried rice, chicken chow fun, and sweet and sour pork. Sometimes I order egg rolls or pot stickers. A very good choice as well. The restaurant is great for families, friends, couples, solo, and business lunches and dinner.

The dish my wife and I had was outstanding, the linguini with clams, scallops and shrimp was quite delicious. The trouble was our server brought us our appitizer and dinner salad at the same time and then we waited 25 to 30 minutes for our entres. By this time we were full and ended up taking most of our food home. Unfortunately the cost of the meal exceeded the service.
