Favorite Eats - Pittsburgh Edition

GingerBeardMan: Without a doubt, the best outdoor dining in Pittsburgh. Great food, service, and atmosphere. You'll probably need a reservation on Friday or Saturday evenings.

GingerBeardMan: In addition to great tacos and drinks, try the chips and salsa. The chips are a little greasy, but unlike any others I've had--and delicious!

GingerBeardMan: Great outdoor dining on the front deck. Try the Henny Penny chicken sandwich (caution: it's a bit spicy) with tater tots. Bonus: go for Bacon Night on Tuesdays or half-price wine on Wednesdays.

GingerBeardMan: One of the best Thai restaurants in Pittsburgh--and there's a lot of competition. Their sister restaurant down the street, Silk Elephant, is also quite tasty.

GingerBeardMan: Have the banana stuffed pancakes or french toast and add a side of home fries.

GingerBeardMan: A great place for comfort food. Ask to sit at one of the high tables near the front for great people watching. My favorite here is Smothered Ground Sirloin Steak with mashed potatoes and onion rings.

GingerBeardMan: Extensive menu and great outdoor seating. I'm a fan of the Cajun chicken wrap and black bean salad.

GingerBeardMan: I'm usually not one to recommend a chain restaurant, but Bravo is an exception. Try the Pasta Woozie or Chicken Scaloppini with an Insalata Della Casa. This location also has great outdoor seating.

GingerBeardMan: Food here is hit and miss depending on the day, but worth going just for the atmosphere. Sit on the bar side for less-expensive menu options.

GingerBeardMan: One word: Spumoni. Get it!

GingerBeardMan: Try a Salted Watermelon or Chocolate Raspberry Truffle shake.
