Its been 8 months since Firehouse Lounge and Embury closed their doors...and I think I'm finally ready to come out of mourning. The loss of my favorite neighborhood cocktail joint and its eclectic, slutty upstairs neighbor (that b*!@h was always bangin') hit pretty hard and I needed some time to ... More

I went to Jekyl and Hyde for the first time ever last night. For a horror movie fan, this is definitely the place for me to hang out! I loved the themed decor and drink specials. They also had really cheap Miller Lites on Fri while we were there ($1.50 bottles!). The only negatives about the bar ... More
Like Hammer said in his review, "I want to love this place." I agree. Over the past month, I gave Redbeard's another shot. The food is great so I opted to a take out order. The place is clean. I had my order ready because I decided what I wanted from their menu online. I walked over to the ... More
This place is amazing, hands down the best Sushi I've had in this city. The decor is beautiful, very well done, not like some cheesy places I've been to. Service was great, plenty of parking. I really like the outside patio luckily it was nice enough yesterday to sit out there. All in all I think ... More
I went to Dive Bar for the first time during their first ever Craft Beer Week event. I had been to restaurants in that area before but never even knew Dive Bar was there. I was pleasantly surprised when I walked into a clean, welcoming environment. The event had a lot of different Brewery's from ... More
Well haven't been to any new bars in a while, but found myself out at the Monkey Bar recently, and figured I'd share.The outdoor deck looked nice, though I stayed inside, certainly could see enjoying a cocktail with some friends out there. Inside the place was clean and reasonable. The staff was ... More

I heard of the place having a wing special on Mondays so I decided to check the place out. I hadnt been there in years. The place is nice, smaller bar area but its a family restaurant so thats understandable. The wing special was 20 cent wings in quantities of 10. They had a General Tso's sauce ... More
Went there for the wing special on Wednesday night. Not bad....they have 30 flavors of wings to choose from. The only problem is that you have to order a minimum of 8 wings at a time. When other places I have gone to have let you order as few as 1 or as many as 6. I wanted to try a bunch of the ... More
This is a very nice local bar that has some good food.(And it wasn't a long wait for it either!) The people here are very nice. The staff are very attentive and willing to help with anything that you may need. They have a great big screen to watch games, and have had music their on some of my ... More
Willies has a good Wednesday wings special. The place is kinda dead everytime ive been there recently. They have a smoking room now, so you can breathe when you go there. The wings are good, but on a couple occassions there I got fries too and the fries had a faint taste of fish in them. Im ... More
I wish I knew what I want to write about this place. It's a bar that has the best of what I want and some of the worst of what I don't want at the same time. In full disclosure, this is one of, if not the closest bar to where I live, and as such, have been there countless times. So, unlike my ... More
Having recently moved to Beaver County from Allegheny County, we were looking for somewhere close to enjoy a few microbrews. There aren't many places around this area that carry beer we like. We were at one bar/restaurant and they suggested we try the Back Door Tavern, so we did. The beer selection ... More
This place is cozy with good food and great drinks but a little bit of an older crowd if you are under 50. We ate at the bar which had a slightly laid back pace but everything was right. The bartender was on in every way. The drinks were pretty strong but a little pricey and they have a nice ... More
Thanks to everyone that voted. Several bars held on to the title of best bar or reclaimed the title this year. We also had ten new categories so checkout all of the winners.Congratulations to the 2011 Winners!
What a great idea, my two favorite places growing up - Dorido's and South Park Inn - combined under one roof. I recently moved back to the area and what a nice surprise to find a brand new bar and restaurant here. Everything I liked about Dorido's plus a lot more TV's on the one side and everything ... More
The Souper Bowl knows what it wants to be, what it is, and does them both superbly.The bar is broken up into two levels, with the lower floor serving mostly as a diner on Consol Energy Center event nights. The upper floor is the main bar which is open during normal bar hours (if such a thing as ... More
Went with a friend to Dive bar for happy hour on a Wednesday last week...I was pleasently surprised that craft beers were $3 all day! Had a Lagunitas Holiday Ale while we waited for 5pm to arrive because ALL appetizers are 1/2 off from 5-7pm. Usually when I go to bars with that type of special your ... More
Helllo Everyone:) Just did a promotional event for BarSmart here. It was my first time ever there and I really enjoyed it. The atmosphere was very chill and a nonsmoking bar which I think definitely is a plus. It was a Monday night from 7 to 9 and they had $5dollar burgers and fries from 5-10pm. ... More
I came here to listen to a band. I love the sound system in there. Not too loud, I usually need earplugs, but I was sitting in the front. I don't like the location of the restrooms. They're down a pair of tiny steps (ladies if you're wearing heels and even if you're sober, walk slowly and hold on.) ... More
Doorman was very pleasant and informative. They make it a point to let you know what you need to do incase you want to start a tab which is to see someone set up at the table near the entrance. She was also very friendly. When I stepped in it was very crowded. There is no room to dance at all and ... More
I visited district 3 this weekend, there is a 10 dollar cover charge on friday nights although there was not many people there. My buddy and I, along with our girlfriends were separated into 2 different line for "frisking" although they frisked me twice they didn't find my pocket knife on me(thank ... More
Sauce is my favorite bar/restaurant in the Bridgeville area...heck, probably in all of Southwestern PA (excluding Pittsburgh). Any time I have company, I always take them to Sauce - I've probably been there well over fifteen times. Sauce has nice waitresses (with funny t-shirts) and good bar ... More
The St. James Place is a bar I've wanted to get to for a while now. Located two or three blocks off of the bustle of East Carson, the St. James is a bar you want to find yourself at if you're in the south side but want to avoid the Friday night "Jersey Shore" watching crowd. The bar is ... More
Saddle ridge has a fun atmosphere and decor but I can't enjoy myself there because I have to spend an inordinate amount of time standing in line waiting for the bathroom. I feel like I'm discriminated against because my guy friends can spend most of their night in the bar instead of in line waiting ... More

Ah...Barley's and Hop's. We use this place as a post mountain bike ride stop. I love this place for the beer. Great selection for unique or seasonal beers. They have all sorts from dark Porters and Stouts to Pale Ales and Lagers to Fruit beers of all sorts. I love the beer selection since I ... More
Level 20 was very clean. Very inviting to come in and sit down. Lots of TVs in the bar and seating area so any direction you sat you could see them. Kid friendly too. The kitchen isn't fully completed yet so they had a limited menu...however the few things they had were very good. I tried the ... More
This little hole in the wall is filled with some of the nicest people in the area. The bar is a large square in the middle of the room and everyone sits packed in pretty tightly around it making it impossible not to introduce yourself to the people sitting around you. On weekends they have live ... More
I cant really say much that hasn't already been stated in other reviews, but I'll try. Howlers is a fantastic live music venue. Two separate rooms make it possible to enjoy a conversation with friends when youre not in the mood to see the band playing. This aspect of the bar has somewhat recently ... More
Been going to the Double Wide almost since they opened. Typically I go during the summer months when you can get a table outside. I think it's great when a venue has that option, so nice to eat outside and just people watch with friends. Let me get the one negative thing out of the way: the ... More
A great Pittsburgh club. Their food, for bar food, is much better than most others. A big complaint is that there is such a small space to watch the bands play, but this is simply not true. The entire smaller second floor is filled with tables and an upstairs bar, meaning you never have to leave ... More
For the younger kiddies. I still go occassionally, and they have a tremendous draw, which is both good and bad. Good luck finding a seat at one of the several very cool tables and nooks. If you snag one, you're golden for the night. If not, I hope you enjoy standing in a very narrow front room if ... More
I've been frequenting the Tiki on and off for years. It has it's ups and downs. Truly original decor. I've been to tiki bars all across the country and none of them have ever held up to the level of detail or originality in utilizing the space as the Tiki Bar has. Even the Tonga in San francisco ...

It's been a while since I wrote a review. So here comes another one. I used to not like going up to Niko's back when it was Michaels. Well in the past 5 years the name isn't the only thing that's changed. The place has been revamped. Walls taken out...it's more open, more colorful. The tv's have ... More
I've been to Downey's House several times and each time has been a very enjoyable environment, drinks, and food.There are 3 parts to Downey's House...all three have their own entrances: the dining room, the bar area, and the outdoor area. The dining room is just that, a dining room, sit down and ... More
First of all i have not been here since 2006 for personal reasons but i went last night and i was surprised. Its clean, the servers are nice, and food was better. Im not a drinker so this isnt a bar review but a food review. I had the mini crab cakes, and i gotta say, 10 bucks for crab cakes around ... More
I recently had a bachelorette party for my older sister a couple of months ago at McFaddens on the North Shore. I was a little hesitant as to what our experience would be like since the North Shore is not exactly as busy as the South Side on weekend nights. HOWEVER; I was completely blown away by ... More
I've really grown to like this place when I'm looking to go to a slightly more upscale happy hour or lunch downtown. The food is a little fancier than just burgers and fries, and they always have a handful of different micro-brews on tap. There's also a pretty decent crowd that comes in for happy ... More
This place doesn't look like much, but in a part of town where bars are pretty scarce, Genoa is worth a stop. The place is in serious need of renovations, but what they lack in decor, they make up for with great service and good food. It's mostly standard pizza shop food, but it's good pizza ... More
Maybe the worst dining out experience i've ever had. Through Groupon I came across a dining deal for Ibiza. Pay $15 for $30 worth of food and drink or something close to that. It seemed like a decent little place so I figured I'd get one of these and give it a shot.As soon as we walked in a very ... More
