Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Mt. Lebanon

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!

Oh server Emily was amazing! Our first visit during Valentine’s Day and they made the experience so wonderful! Ended up having to take dessert home because the portions were so generous, definitely worth the higher price tag.

Right when you walk in everyone is very friendly! We got seated within 5 minutes of our reservation. We went on Valentine’s Day, so they were very busy but managed it very well. The waitress we had was very polite and friendly. She told us about the highlights of the menu and her personal favorites. It was a nice experience to hear the popular recommendations! All 3 courses that we ordered came out in a timely fashion and were absolutely delicious! The lobster crab cake appetizer was definitely amazing! The steak was cooked perfectly and was so tender! The crème brûlée was so light but cooked at just the right temperature and time! Overall, we were very pleased with this restaurant and will most definitely be back very soon!

Overalll it was a nice Valentine’s Day dinner. We decided to go early to beat the crowd but still seemed to have a long wait to get drinks and our order taken. We were there for 2 hours. Food was really good. Our Filets were over salted so we ended up boxing them up and brining home.

Wonderful Bacon wrapped filet and Baked Potato. Kiley was our waitress and so friendly and attentive. The manager and kitchen manager stopped at our table to ask about the meal. Told both we were extremely happy with the meal and preparation. Ad a chance to let the Chef know we were happy with the steak. Definitely be back as one of our favorite restaurants.
