Chive

Chive is an incredible place to grab a freshly made, healthy, and delicious bite to eat. Everything is made to order and most everything in the place is made fresh that day. Their dressings, sauces, salsa, and hummus are all house-made. I moved to this area after spending half my life in California and one of the things that are hard to find around here is anything that has an authentic Latin flavor. Chive manages to get it right. There is a simplicity in what they make that really allows you to get to the flavors in the food itself, without being masked by tons of spice. I love that because I often feel like restaurants overcompensate with "flavor" and you don't actually get much of the flavor of the food. My favorite menu items are the Carnitas wrap made with their house-made pickle slaw, slow-roasted pork shoulder, and chili lime dressing. As far as pork-based wraps go this is just about as perfect a combo of flavors as you can get. I also love the Fall farmer bowl, better for colder weather, just an awesome meal. Chicken, wild rice, sweet potatoes with goat cheese, and apples. My wife loves Hummus, I never really like it. but I could eat Chive's home-made hummus by the gallon. Especially with their homemade chips. It's amazing. Actually about a month ago I called to see if we could order a big vat of it. My wife was happy... she has Chive hummus and chips for like 2 weeks. This is a great business providing something that this area really needed. Fresh, healthy, and delicious food in a relaxed made-to-order environment. The owners are standup community-minded people too who are always looking for ways to positively impact the area they live and work and that is big in my book. We need more business owners like them.Check out this video I made on Chive to learn more https://youtu.be/LRbb0Hxl3is

If you are looking for a local, fresh, quality rice bowl, salad, or wrap, Chive is a great option. Basically, you stand at the counter and order your food and can customize the ingredients kind of like a salad bar where you see all the options before you but only the server has access to the ingredients. If anything, it is a bit pricier for the local area but well worth it compared to most big city areas. They do have a couple of small tables on the sidewalk for eating outside in the good weather which I think is a great option. My only feedback would be that the interior is basic and not that comfortable for hanging out. I think adding some textures and maybe dividers would make at a cozier place to go out and not want to get done and leave quickly.

My go too is the Steak Wrap... soooo good! They are really big I usually can't finish it, & the steak is so fresh & delicious. Definitely try out chive my daughter is a huge salad girl she loves there salads you can pick everything fresh you want on it! Try it

Had an excellent salmon & quinoa bowl. Took a detour off the interstate and glad we did. Service was good.

Quick service and excellent fresh food. A nice variety on their menu with healthy options that the whole family enjoyed. We will definitely be back.

Their CHIPS! So good. Make sure you order them if they don't come with your meal. We tried the Cobb Salad and Salmon Salad. The Cobb Salad was larger in size than the Salmon Salad. But according to my husband the lemon vinaigrette dressing on the Salmon Salad made up for the smaller portion size. If you love blue cheese (I do!) you will enjoy each bite of the Cobb Salad. Plenty of flavor along with the bacon and tomatoes and raspberry vinaigrette. Back to the CHIPS-- best part! Ordering online was easy and the food was ready when indicated. Give them a try!

The food is so fresh and the combinations of flavors are delicious! Pick up orders are ready fast, too!

I wish there were more Chives throughout pittsburgh! Such a great healthy option. The food is fantastic-- never had something I didn't like!

10/10 Haven't had anything here I haven't loved. Delicious food choices! Some of my favorites are the chicken buffalo burrito, the asian salad, and the hot honey warm bowl. Everything is great!

Food is so fresh so amazing so wonderful so healthy one place you can go and eat and not feel guilty at all
