EYV Restaurant

Amazing We had 3 course vegan meal..The house sampler was awesome.Cabbage pastrami was amazing.Dessert I don't even know what it was, but it was so damn good .Treat yourself to farm to table at this place for sure. Parking can be a little difficult as you had to park on the street, but we only walked about a block and it was worth it.

We went yesterday night for dinner and opted for one of their pre-fixe menu options - you can do four courses for $55 or five courses for $70 (or just buying the dishes a la carte is an option, too) and we went with the first option and got a couple of cocktails with it. I got the seasonal Torte-Tini and it tastes like a burnt almond torte except less sweet and more boozy and I LOVED it. I'm normally a pretty voracious meat eater but really liked all the courses I got! Everything was flavorful and had great texture and our server was lovely as well so no complaints here.The inside consists of a small downstairs and a small upstairs with a bar so definitely not good for a group bigger than four - be sure to make reservations! It is a little pricey for the portion sizes and lack of meat but still worth it for an occasional nice night out.

Let me tell you about this place.......My first time here was last year on my birthday. It was the most unique restaurant I have ever been too. Absolutely amazing flavor infusions and truly unique creations. Last year we had Rod as our server, and met Mike the chef. They were great!!Fast forward to tonight. Fabulous creations and amazing service once again! (Thank you Kristen and Daniel!). The Lions Mane Marsala was one of the best things I have ever eaten in my life!!! (If anyone has Lions Mane recipes, please share!)But the best part was that Rod and chef remembered me!!! (Good or bad, i don't know ‍‍)In a big city with so many options, this place is a gem!!!! In ALL ways. If you are in the area, go!!!!! I would give this place and its people 20 stars if i could!!Thank you for being the best of the best!! Ps. They also all signed a birthday card for me.

SAVOR, SAVOR, SAVOR. If you're looking to fuel up before a big athletic event, this isn't the place. If you value quantity over quality, this isn't the place. If you're not open-minded about a meal that isn't meat-centric, this isn't the place for you. If you're looking for a great dining EXPERIENCE, this is it. My daughter and I shared a series of small bites for her birthday. Our server thoroughly explained each dish and nearly everything could be made gluten-free to accommodate my dietary needs. Each plate was brought out separately, allowing us to fully savor the aromas, tastes and textures before moving on to the next dish. Believe it or not, we felt quite satisfied with the portions because those little bites add up. The atmosphere is warm and inviting and the space immaculate. The staff was friendly and professional - and even presented my daughter with a birthday card. I highly recommend EYV as a special treat - even if you're a meat-lover. It is pricey, but again, it's about the experience. I did note the space is pretty tight, so if you have accessibility needs, I would review that with staff when making a reservation. And remember Eat Your Vegetables!

Five stars for our first visit to EYV. We chose the snack sampler, Rutabaga "lasagna" and Fungal Farms Mushroom Congee. All were excellent, but my favorite was the snack sampler with a glass of white wine. We finished with a red beet churro (shared). Nice atmosphere - casual but upscale at the same time.

Food was stylish and tasty. Ambiance was laid back modern but not overly fancy. The service was attentive and efficient. Expect to spend $60 per person including drinks. We had the snack sampler, beets, turnips and pastrami. All delicious and a clever take on the vegetables involved. As with many vegetarian restaurants, there is a play to make the veggies seem meat-like. I'd love for chefs with skills to move past that and showcase the vegetables / legumes in their own right. Cocktails were really good and clever. Parking was easy enough and the neighborhood is nice to walk about it you're early.

Visited EYV for restaurant week and was blown away by the great service and even better food! EYV (Eat Your Vegetables) is such a fun concept for both vegetarians and non-veggie folk alike, and the menu is so fun and creative and unlike any other restaurant in Pittsburgh. The staff are so kind and friendly, and the space itself is elegant without being stuffy or overdone. The 3 course meal was perfectly portioned, and beautifully presented, not to mention absolutely delicious. I tried the Yukon gold pierogi, the cabbage pastrami, and the cheese and apple dessert. All were PACKED with flavor and interesting textures and preparation styles, and the plating was all lovely and showed an attention to detail. I wholeheartedly recommend for a date night or a dinner with a few friends!

I'll start by saying that neither me nor my significant other are vegetarian or vegan. I love the concept of the restaurant, and that they can really cater to people with these restrictions and I definitely can see the appeal. The dishes just fell flat for us, nothing quite stood out or was amazing and it wasn't a cheap meal to be just Ok. The service was really good and we got to sit with a view of the kitchen and food prep, which was great.

Absolutely love this place! It's so beautiful and quaint, open kitchen/dining space on the first floor, and cozy bar on the second. We went for drinks this time around, and they were absolutely FABULOUS. I had a smoked old fashioned and the Air Parody. They did an excellent job creating their own spin on these craft cocktails. Our bartender was Daniel (I believe) and he was just awesome. The owner Michael stopped by to say hello too. Service is fantastic and so are the drinks. Can't wait to stop back for the food, which looks like works of art!

Exceptional comfort food, welcoming staff, and a nice ambiance.The food is excellent and beautifully presented.The chef shows a lot of creativity.Frankly, I was embarrassed that Pittsburgh restaurants used to offer a single vegetarian option, usually a veggie burger or a mushroom dish.EYV, I applaud you!
