North Shore Tavern

Phenomenal! JC our server was en point!! Irish coffee yum. Sweet and spicy burger tooo much for me. Ate half-- snack for later. I love a good Pittsburgh dive!!!!! Come here! Get the steak. I was on a budget

Another stop for Pittsburgh restaurant week!I really liked the options they were offering for the week, so my foodie friends and I had to check it out! For my starter I picked the pierogies, I was craving them! These were pretty good, not the best I had ever had. But the caramelized onions were good! If you didn't know, they're known for "steak on a stone" here! So my filet came out on a piping hot stone, and you cook it to your liking! These servers gave us guidance on how to cook! We also had the choice of side sauces. I got sweet potato fries as my side! I tried the chimichurri and the steak sauce, but the steak was great on its own! Dessert was an apple dumpling!

I mean, it's steak on a stone, what else do you need to know?OK, maybe a little bit.I was shocked at how much responsibility I was given.You don't specify how you want your meat cooked. You cook it.The slab is EXTREMELY hot and when you slap that slab of cow on that slab of rock it's more charismatic that then Chili's fajita's of your childhood birthday dreams!Folks were friendly, beer selection was solid, and location is fantastic.

I took my friend to North Shore Tavern for the "steak on a stone" experience, and we both enjoyed our visit!We both chose filet, and we couldn't have been happier with our decision! The filet was so tender, it could be cut with a fork! We also really enjoyed cooking each bit to perfection. The stone eliminates receiving a steak that does not meet your expectation in a typical restaurant. We also both ordered fries, which were crispy and delicious! I don't think there was a single bit of food left on our plates by the end of our visit! I also tried the Pear Naked Martini, which was good although it was a tad too sweet for me. This was such a fun dining experience, and I will definitely be back with my family!

This was a fun place to experience! I heard great things about it and was excited to try! Very cool experience to cook your food in front of you. The server did a great job explaining how to ensure all of your food was properly cooked!

Walked in on a Friday night without a reservation, but were able be seated quickly despite it being busy and several tables that were reserved. Note to self, to make a reservation next time. Food was great. The steak you cook yourself on this hot stone slab to your own liking. You get the option of a dipping sauce and a side. I think I got the garlic aioli and a spicy broccoli salad. They complemented the meal. We sat a high table top. It's kinda crowded a bar, but great for a Friday night date night. You get to enjoy your date, your food, and sports. Low key atmosphere with high end meals. Each meal was about $50. Servers were super busy but very attentive. Highly recommend you give this place a try.

This spot is so perfect being situated right across the street from PNC, and less than a 15 minute walk to Acrisure. Came here from out of town to visit family and check off PNC. Effortless to get to the ballpark. Plus, when you combine $4 IC Light pre-game, it's a win-win. Think upscale bar atmosphere. Didn't grab any food, but next time I'm back I'll check out that scene. Place gets packed on game day, but that's hardly a complaint.

We came in as a party of 13 on a Saturday before a Pirates game. They were able to accommodate such a large party very well! We had friendly and timely service throughout. The menu had a nice variety, from their famous stone cooked meats and seafood, to their nachos, and the yinzer wrap. Most of our group got the steak on a stone or a combination of steak and seafood. Everyone enjoyed their meal, for both the food and the experience! Overall, well priced for what you receive!

Looking at other reviews, I seem to be in the minority with my rating, but I have my reasons. The service on this visit was improved over a previous visit, but was average at best and I sensed a serious lack of wait staff training. Those in our party who ordered the meatloaf really enjoyed it, and the portions were generous. Per my dinner mates, the pizza and the burger were just okay. I had the salmon - again generous portions for the sides. Unfortunately, the risotto was seriously undercooked and the salmon was overcooked and a bit dry. For the prices, and the ambition of the menu, I expect higher standards. All that said, I knocked a star off my rating after going downstairs to use the restroom. The door to a storeroom was open and I could see the front of a freezer with a build up of black mildew (or mold?) on it. Then I noted a serious build-up of dust in the restroom. Makes me concerned about the cleaning standards for the rest of the establishment.

Great Pittsburgh menu of food and drinks - perfect for Bucco's fans! Neil Walker showed up and greeted everyone - perfect place for pre/pat game drinks/meal
