It was absolutely delicious! Kasjah was extremely pleasant, efficient, and just a joy to have as our waitress. Thank y...

Delicious food and a great beer selection. Large portion sizes so come hungry! Nice view of the Pittsburgh skyline. The environment is relaxed and causal; an interesting mix of German beer hall and Pittsburgh Yinzer style to the menu and decor. There is a bar and restaurant. Televisions to watch loc...

A must visit for lunch, dinner or a few beer. DJ our bartender was most helpful and pleasant. must see if vi...

All-in-all a great experience! Food was great and the atmosphere wonderful! Good selection of beer, and we both took some home. Thoroughly enjoyed our experience! The only reason for four stars was the service. Our server was friendly and helpful when we could get her attention. For the record...

The beer was tasty. Had the Oktoberfest and the Dunkel. The pretzel trio with the house cheese was delicious. Place has a festive German feel. Customer service was courteous, but I could tell they were ready to go home given the slow night. A little outside of downtown, the area around the brew pub ...

It can be a little crowded at times, but it's worth the wait. The beer and food is amazing and very traditional German. The hefeweizen (unfiltered wheat beer) is one of the best I ve had in the United States. The bartenders are fun and the brew master is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. If you ...

My boyfriend and I were in town for some job interviews and stopped here for dinner. We had a great experience - very good German style beers, really tasty German food and fried pickles, and a very cool beer - hall dining room with an interesting atmosphere. Our food was reasonable and delicious and...

Since I can't find a spot to leave a review for the location at the airport I'm going to leave it here. I have now tried the new location twice. The 1st time I sat down and after no one stopping by in 10 minutes I decided to get up and leave. I figured I would give them a 2nd chance today. I sat dow...

Started off a recent bachelor party with a private tour here. The Brew Master gave us the tour of the whole place. Let me just say that this dude lives for beer. Not in a frat boy way either. He loves everything about it. He can tell what kind of hops were put in and where they came from just bu...

Could go to a ONE star pending the taste and quality of the pierogis I just ordered for breakfast! As I was looking at the breakfast menu, the bartender, who was obviously annoyed having to fill in for a late server (?) flipped my menu over and said "it's lunch now", even tho it says breakfast serve...

This place is a must see if you are visiting Pittsburgh. I would say that it is one of Pittsburgh's destinations on the list. Great place, the food here is awesome and of course the brew is always flowing around this place. Not your average bar/grill.

It's a shame I only discovered this place when my friend picked it for his birthday celebration. Now absolutely one of my favorite places in this city. The German food and beer is hands down way better than Hofbrauhaus, and the burgers are among my favorites too! Only complaint is the parking situat...

This microbrewery had an amazing concept. The building used to be the former Eberhardt and Ober Brewery (founded in 1848). You walk in and you can see so much history. We walked in by mistake to the alley and it looked like a Spanish bodega. The ambiance was so relaxed. Food is amazing....German ins...

Beer was decent. Service was absolutely terrible. It all started with a disgruntled hostess seating us and we heard her say that she was going to quit. Three people seemedto be assigned to our table and nobody really knew who had what table.
Our food took an extraordinarily long time to come out...

Wow, worse ever for service in the 'burgh, walked down steps to outside seating area, had to wipe our own table, get our own menus, and after 40 minutes of waiting, our presence was never acknowledged regardless of how many times we tried making eye contact, we tried to even call their phone from o...

Great food, drink selection, service, and atmosphere. Oktoberfest is something you can't miss at this place. Their in house brews are phenomenal and their German/Polish food selection is great, especially the different Kielbasa, German potato salad, pierogis, and more. If I had to suggest one place ...

Highly recommend this! Easily some of the best beers I've ever had, it's no wonder they have so many awards! I wish I could buy it locally where I'm from, but since I can't I'll be back. The dark and gold were my favorites, And the Buckaroo I believe. Surprised I liked a fruit beer, congrats to...
