Best Brunch Restaurants in Switzer

Eleven is still one of the very best in pgh! Forget the over the top trendy trying to gets places and the ultra steak houses. Eleven has been and remains the standard!

Our first experience will not be our last! We live a few hours away and planned a weekend getaway. Everything from the ambiance, service, and food was impeccable! Check in and valet were seamless. Sitting on the swings waiting to be called to our table was a total vibe! We were seated below the bar right at the entrance. At first I had really wished we were upstairs but the food and ambiance made me forget right away! We started with the bread board appetizer which was delivered by one of the managers, Shakur. This impressed me because he was interacting with the guests and you could tell he wanted to make sure our experience was satisfactory! The breads were delicious and the spreads were perfect compliments! I had the haddock and my husband had the lobster mac and cheese. We were expecting small portions for the fine dining price—we were WRONG! We were shocked at how much food arrived and we had to box up a big portion of everything (appetizer, meals, dessert) that we ordered. To finish, we had to order the Pittsburgh cookie table! Were the cookies the best cookies we’ve ever had? No. Am I still glad we ordered it? Absolutely! I especially liked the heart shaped cookies. They were delicious! I must try brunch next!

We were seated 30 minutes after our reservation time, but it allowed us time to experience the great bar, drink selections and “top shelf” bartenders-particularly Bradley Zimmerman (lead bartender)- who made us Benton old fashions, spicy margaritas and Fallen Apple martinis. All were outstanding! Dinner was amazing, in part due to our very personable and fantastic waitress Kendall. Can’t say enough of this young lady. Very attentive although it was busy. She was knowledgeable and helpful in guiding us to our delicious selections- crab cakes, Caesar salads, Filet Thermidor and Chicken Rosé. Kudos to the kitchen! Mad props to this staff who made this Valentine Day experience one of the best ever! We will be back AND bringing friends every chance we get.

We absolutely loved our food. From the starters to dessert was amazing! Our waitress was great, great suggestions, funny, silly. We really enjoyed her. We were a little disappointed that we had to wait 25 minutes after our reservation time but the good food made up for it. I was enjoying my food so much, I forgot to take pictures!

A warm friendly spot on a grey rainy and dreary evening. Made it for happy hour for cocktails at a good price to start the evening. The jerked chicken was well seasoned, cooked just right and remains one of my favorites. The combination of the chicken, jalapenos, pineapple and greens is fantastic. Something new this time was the Key Lime Tart, which is definitely a keeper.
