I've never made it to the famous Le Bec Fin upstairs, but this less expensive, less formal sister restaurant in the basement is still one of the best French restaurants I've experienced. The cozy bar area actually has a romantic feel to it almost as if you are being treated to a private meal. The ...

This place has the best hoagie ever!. I have lived in the area and raised on them. My personal favorite is the regular hoagie. Just a basic sub, but they put on "special" ingredients that make it oh so yummy. They have been in business for about 20 plus years and also have another shop in Ford City,...

So I don't know how John's Pizzaria originated but it has been in this college town since 1979. I remember first having this pizza when I was a freshman in college. It was fall of 1999 and I was at the art studio working late when I smelled this wonderful aroma coming from the room next door...I g...

One evening during our Fitness Rally in Phila in Oct 2007 we had an evening to ourselves for dinner. So we got together with our best friends from Brooklyn NY -Tony and Vivian and went looking for a good restaurant. I remember eating Afghanistani food in Washington D.C. back in 1995 so I thought, ...

While staying in Philly our B&B owners recommended this little restaurant for amazing food and they were right!
The restaurant is very small and the perfect place for a private dinner. When you enter you are instantly treated like family and the owner, Luigi (Papa Gigi to locals), personally gree...

While Philadelphia has its cheese steak, Pittsburgh has Primanti Brother sandwiches. The sandwiches consist of a choice of meat, with cole slaw, french fries and tomato slices on Italian bread. This is NOT for someone on a diet! It tates especially good at 2am after a night of drinking! The sandwich...

A night at Casbah is like taking a step outside of Pittsburgh. From its heated partially open patio, to its modernized rustic Mediterranean decor, it is easy to get swept away in your surroundings. Menus change daily but include a few signature items that remain on the menu year round (try the loc...

The Library is located right across from the *real* library in the Southside, and plays on the library stereotype with menus are pasted in discarded books and the drink lists are in children's encyclopedias. Almost all the foods have cutesy, literary refenced names, like the Edgar Allan Potatoes. I ...

I used to live in South Philly and recently visited Philadelphia intent on going back to this place. I wanted to make sure that the "Veggie Hoagie" was as delicious as I remembered---taste buds and memories can deceive! However in the case of Chickie's Veggie Hoagie, my taste buds and memories wer...

If you love sushi and you are coming to the Pittsburgh area, I highly recommend Nakama. I have eaten a lot of sushi in my travels, and I have lived in NYC, where your sushi options are endless, and there are not many comparisons to this restaurant.
Nakama is in Pittsburgh's South Side neighborhoo...

You can pick any combination of cereals, no matter how weird, and pick any kind of topping. Then, you get to eat it from a chinese take out box. It doesn't get much better than that. You'll feel like a kid again, can't help but leave with a smile on your face

Uzu is a high quality sushi gem tucked away off the main thoroughfare of Old City life. The restaurant offers both eat-in and take away, both of which are equally satisfying. My personal fav is the Uzu Ultimate which offers a sushi assortment, a step above the norm for a fairly reasonable place. If ...

While everyone else is waiting in a line that rounds the corner to order a cheesesteak from Pat's on South Street, just a few blocks down is Steaks on South or SOS. We were in Philly for a concert and knew we wanted to enjoy a philly cheesesteak before heading to the concert. It was a Saturday night...

If you want a cheese steak go to Pats, and get it with whiz. Genos and Jims suck.
