Maria NicholMarch 22, 2016Everything was exceptional for us. The service was top notch besides one glitch of forgetting our drink. The food is delicious, the fire shrimp and dumplings are a must. Get lots of plates & share
KarenJune 11, 2019I can't say enough praise for this restaurant. From the outstanding and friendly service, to the delectable food, to the wonderful seating areas (private parties welcome).
First off, you need to try the dirty pickle martini.. Holy crap, so good. And keep drinking those while you have the Chicken Ramen - also amazing
Laura HutchisonFebruary 22, 2014The French martini is great. And the bartenders know what they're doing. Great place to relax and have a few nice cocktails.
Helen CAugust 23, 2019Nice fusion food. Tried Japanese Summer tasting menu, good except the dessert, the mochi was dried and red bean fillings are hard.
Anu JayasingheMay 19, 2015Good food, but I don't think it's worth the price compared to other restaurants in the area. But I'd come back for the desserts, especially the sorbets!
Mollie GannonAugust 26, 2017Outstanding dining experience! Filet Satays are unbelievable. Everything we ordered was superb. Can't wait to return.
Terry LeachNovember 25, 2018The pan seared halibut is great, the vegetables are the best I've tasted with a dish.
y contentDecember 20, 2011get nantucket scallops & korean ribs for appetizers. good portions & tasty. seared tuna was also a win
Lauren BatesApril 24, 2023I loved everything I had: the lychee cocktail, chirashi sushi, and chocolate maki.- Jason CahillSeptember 17, 2012Haven't found that many great Asian places in Pittsburgh... but this place is awesome! Try the seared tuna, you won't go wrong
- Mikahla VicinoMay 15, 2015Appetizer, entree, and dessert are all phenomenal and necessary. Start with lobster tacos and end with chocolate maki.
Ann LiangJanuary 13, 2013Best banana split ever had!! Caramelized bananas with ice cream... A must try!!
Sarah MeredithJune 25, 2012Extensive and creative cocktail list. If you like St. Germain, get the Beekeeper.
Simon BrobergFebruary 26, 2018lobster tacos and the banana split were good. I took people's recommendation and got the seared tuna but didn't like it.
Dave LudwigApril 3, 2013Get the thai chicken wraps and don't forget to add the little peppers, they're hidden
- Dave LudwigApril 3, 2013Get a reservation on OpenTable but go 20 mins early to have a cocktail at the swank bar
Bi Bim Bap is amazing. Ask to add Kim chi to make it even better.
Frances LinOctober 7, 2015Good cocktails, lackluster food. You're paying for the ambiance and service.
travel42September 16, 2011Try the seared rare tuna with Korean sauce. Also a wonderful list of vegetarian dishes.- ASGJanuary 4, 2010get the crispy tofu small plate to start. I know most of you don't eat tofu, but please trust me. it is ridiculously good. i'm a very picky eater too.
SobaNovember 7, 2011Parking is available in the lot next to Soba, as well as in the lot across the street after 5pm!
The crispy tofu is the best I've ever had! Be sure to make a reservation. :)
Arman AfghaniMarch 17, 2017The ramen was a total disaster. If you're looking for an authentic ramen experience comparable to those in LA or NYC, don't bother, this isn't it. Not even close. 😒😒
Bofta YimamJuly 2, 2013Summer nights: table by the sidewalk- open-window is fabulous! Vegetarian Pad Thai is yum yum!
- Melinda KruegerMarch 30, 2010I got the expresso martini. It was a bit pricey, but sooo worth it! One of the best martinis I've had.
AliciaMarch 9, 2010The Thai corn chowder with crab meat is tasty for a starter, and try the chocolate maki for dessert!
Jenn HJuly 16, 2010Totally agree that reds vodka martini is divine and the Bangkok tea really great too!
Amanda SchaffnerJanuary 8, 2011The mugi-oh is a perfectly refreshing martini, don't be afraid of the shochu.
Get the red's dirty martini with hendrick's. It's fantastic.
