Always love to come back here 😍 my fav seafood restaurant in Pittsburgh - tried almost everything on the menu and they're all delicious. Love the jumbo sea scallops with a side of asparagus .

Andra Zapartan

The server recommended the yellow fin tuna and it turned out to be amazingly good. I got the port one with a side of Brussel sprouts (the best b sprouts I have ever had). So definitely recomm this :)

Andra Zapartan

For dessert , try the angel food (voted best one in Pgh) or the steaming chocolate latte (shown here). The first one comes with a tasty berries sauce and the second one is chocolate rich and creamy.

One of the best salmon dishes I had. The strawberry-wine sauce flavor on the salmon makes it really unique. I would have this order every time I am here just because of how well-executed this recipe.

Professional and very friendly staff . Great view and nice ambiance. The scallops were my favorite, so was salmon . It’s fine dining , but I think it’s slightly overpriced.

Jim Wolter

Awesome. Jr made reservations for his mothers birthday. He got the best table in the house. Really corner over looking Pittsburgh service was 5+, food was fantastic. We were treated like royalty.

Brian

Jumbo sea scallops stuffed with crab cake !! The service is impeccable. The view is stunning. Get there early or off hours to secure a spot. Didn't like the whiskey sour but the food made up for it.

Brittany Simmons

Extraordinary view of the city ! Perfect for a romantic date or a big celebration. The food is a bit pricy but it's worth it for the overall experience.

Debaraj Das

Excellent sea food ! I tried Lobstar soup and Ahi Sashimi Tuna - awesome! Great view overlooking Pittsburgh downtown.

Pam R

The Ahi Tuna Oscar style was perfectly prepared. The asparagus was delicious with the perfect amount of snap. The Hollandaise sauce didn't drown the tuna but complimented it.

Louis Hansell

The Brussel Sprouts , yellow tail tuna , and everything else is very good. Desserts are a must. And the view is spectacular.

Kristen Sussman

Absolutely gorgeous with some of the best seats near the second (really like the 18th) floor. Oysters Rockefeller and French Kiss hit the spot!

If you're looking for dinner and a view , this is your place. With the freshest seafood in the city and a gorgeous view atop Mt. Washington, you won't leave disappointed.- Mandy, Marketing Coordinator

Great view and even better food! The Grouper was amazing!

Best dinner view in town . Seafood in Pittsburgh should not be this good.

Mollie Gannon

Angel food sandwich is excellent and a true original.

Mollie Gannon

Back again for drinks & that fabulous angel food grilled cheese dessert . Best dessert in town . Extraordinarily rude service tonight though.....very disappointing. Waiter’s behavior was appalling.

Great food and service, spectacular views of the city !

This place never disappoints. Best view on Mt. Washington and a delicious menu!

Worth the money & the trip. Get the seafood sampler , small portion but the flavors are amazing.

Great place to get married :)

Crabcakes are their specialty

Chilean Sea Bass . Excellent !!

Bridget Beaver

For this kind of money they should at least iron the tablecloths.

@HungryEditor Ben Setiawan

The food is decent, but not amazing. You can go for drinks & still enjoy the great views 1 level below.
