Scratch & Co

Nice vibe, great cocktails and food. I hadn't been in a few years, and was pleased to see an upgraded interior. Nice crowd early on Saturday evening.The gemelli I had was very good, locally sourced from Forma Pasta. My husband had the burger, which he loved. We shared a plate of pickles beets that we agreed we will order every time.

We made reservations and came here for Valentine's Day. The staff were extremely friendly and it felt like a very private dinner. The focaccia bread is out of this world. Between my steak and her fusilli we had an amazing dinner and time. Highly recommend for a date night!

Came back for another fabulous meal at Scratch.This is such a gem. We had pickled turnips, smashed potatoes, a delicious trout fish and some tasty cocktails. Can't wait to go back!

It's a trek getting up Rialto, but oh so worth it!I was slightly concerned with the limited menu, but now I get it. Limit your offerings so you can master the flavors of what you do make. The burger was so juicy and not greasy like most smash burgers! The house made pickles ... no words! The potatoes were amazing but most of ours weren't smashed. They are served with a garlic aioli that is heavenly. Loved the freshness of the housemade bagel as well! Cute spot with exceptional service and food near perfection.

This place is adorable! I love the vibes and the waitress was so friendly. I love a place that has a minimal menu option, it shows they focus on what they cook. I got the surprise burger and it was delicious with the smashed potatoes. I would highly recommend this place!

My partner and I went for brunch and it was really nice. The restaurant itself is very cute, our service wasn't the best but the food was great which made up for it. My partner had the Smash Burger and I had the Breakfast Sandwich on an Everything Bagel. The bagel was delicious as well as the bacon in it. My partner said the burger was solid and we both enjoyed the potatoes as well. Definitely can't wait to try dinner here!

After finally trying this restaurant, I fully understand the hype. This is definitely one of the best restaurants in Pittsburgh (shoutout to our amazing server, Pim). I ordered the pork porchetta, which was amazing. If you like pork belly and are ok with eating a good bit on of fat, you will enjoy this dish very much. We also ordered the bread and rotating butter (smoked tomato) which was also wonderful. I washed all the food down with their house made root beer. For dessert, we shared some of the Millie's soft serve, which was a perfect ending for a stellar meal. I came with a group of 5 on a Saturday evening with reservations. We were seated on the bar side of the restaurant since the other dining room side does not have tables to accommodate a group of 5. It is darker on the bar side, so keep that in mind if you are planning to go with a large group. The service was impeccable and the restaurant is comfortable and elegant, but not stuffy. I highly recommend making reservations and stopping by to see what it is all about. I'll be back to try to the brunch soon!

Such a cute little spot in Troy Hill. The restaurant side seem quiter and it was pretty spacious with decorative pillows around the seating area. It was cozy!! We opted to sit on the bar side in a booth and it was busy and lively! The server and bartender were very attentive and prompted! We went for restaurant week and they had a good menu! It was two appetizers and entree for $45. The appetizers were the beets and the focaccia bread!!! The bread was soft and warm! Very different than what I've had in the past but much better! The olive oil dipping sauce was also fantastic and vinegary! The pickled beets were served with ricotta and it was the perfect balance! The entree was meatloaf and it was good and cooked well! It was smaller than what we were expecting but still a good portion. I didn't go with the restaurant week menu. I ordered the radicchio salad which is a red cabbage to start. The dressing wasn't overly done and I loved the nuts and apples in it! For my entree I got the trout! It was accompanied with mash potato purée! It was a little sweet which was so different but I loved it! I also tried the cauliflower and carrot dishes! The carrots were plated beautifully and it was roasted! The cauliflower had a nice sauce that went with it and it was very Indian inspired. Has a good kick to it! We also got some olives and it was a good and salty snack to balance everything!

One of the best brunches! Reservations on Resy are a good idea, as this is a popular spot. Street parking is available, as is food pickup. The menu has a selection of all the typical breakfast fares and doesn't disappoint. The Bloody Mary has a nice kick from the horseradish and is a little chunky. Small bits of pickled veggies are on the stick. Overall, a really good breakfast cocktail.The breakfast sandwich is served on brioche and I opted for an everything bagel. It came with a good egg to cheese ratio and nice pieces of bacon on top. The smashed potatoes with garlic aoli are a must. They have a nice crunch and are large enough to share.I will definitely be back!

This place is a Pittsburgh GEM. Cant believe I waited so long to eat here. Food is amazing.
