From the moment I stepped foot into Capital Grille, I was welcomed by a lovely hostess who greeted me by name and made me feel at home. My friend and I always ask to be seated at Rebecca's station. She is professional, knowledgeable about the specials, and makes us feel appreciated. The food is excellent as always that is why we dine at Capital Grille several times throughout the year. It is truly a treat and a gastronomic delight.

Last night, I tried the delicious (and perfect for a cold night) French Onion Soup and a glass of Pinot Noir. My husband loved the Herb-infused Pappardelle Bolognese. We are looking forward to the special New year's Eve dinner that Chef Esposito is creating.

Had dinner with friends at Siempre Algo last night to celebrate a birthday. Erin was our waitress and was delightful and knowledgable about the menu. The food and cocktails were suberb, as were her recommendations. Very much enjoyed the ambience, and we will definitely be going back

Alta Via is our favorite Pittsburgh restaurant for Italian cuisine. An extensive menu (including gluten free selections) ensure everyone will find dishes to enjoy. The food is well prepared & nicely presented. Service is attentive & friendly. Bravo!

An absolutely amazing experience as always for our offices holiday party. Jeremy was our server and did amazing taking care of nine chaotic adults. Drinks flowed, and food came out quickly. Everything ordered was of superb quality and delicious. We look forward to our office holiday party every year and Eddie V’s never disappoints.
