Restaurants near Pittsburgh Zoo And Ppg Aquarium

Food and service here are the most tasty and consistent we have found in the area. Dahlia was our server this evening and she was great. It’s a one a month visit at this point.

We loved our first visit to Golden Gai! From the moment we stepped through the door until the moment we left, the ambiance and hospitality exceeded expectations. Every dish we tried was perfectly presented and equally delicious! We really appreciated interacting with the chefs and watching them create the menu!! We will be back!

Knowledgeable and excellent server. Mushroom bisque was outstanding. Short rib ravioli were absolutely delicious-tender filling and wonderfully flavorful presentation. Peaceful evening out in the midst of the busy holiday season!

I had lunch at City Works to celebrate a milestone with a friend. It was the perfect space. I also asked for a quiet part of the restaurant so we could hear each other, and they found us the perfect spot. Food was excellent, service was great.

Beautiful restaurant with fabulous food. We had a reservation and were taken upstairs promptly. We were excited at first - thinking the upstairs would overlook the main floor with it's beautiful living green wall - but were a bit sad when the upstairs area where the dinner tables are is walled off. Why???? The bar upstairs has a great view over the side thru a glass wall. Odd design for the upstairs. That aside --- the food is really fantastic and creative. My friend and I shared everything. We got 2 apps from the "dips" section --- a tasty charred babaganoush topped with crispy chickpeas; and roasted pepper pesto with whipped ricotta. Neither comes with bread - which is odd. You have to order their focaccia (or you could eat your dips w/ a spoon!) - which was fresh and SO tasty and a large portion. Still - this adds another $10 to your bill. (Eyebrow raise - paying for BREAD??) We got a "small plate" - duck confit - with perfectly crisped skin and a divine white bean ragout (reminded us of cassoulet a bit) & pancetta. The last dish was our least fave - the mushroom pappardelle. The cheese overwhelmed the dish. A FAB night. We'll most definitely be back.
