Casbah is a neighborhood restaurant and wine bar located in Pittsburgh’s East End. From the year-round garden patio to the dining room, from the cozy bar to the wine cellar, each visit can feel like a new and special experience.

Casbah offers a broad menu focused on northern Mediterranean-inspired cuisine from Italy, Spain, France and Greece that emphasizes local ingredients. All meals start with warm, house made bread from Eleven’s kitchen. A cheese plate followed by appetizers, a bowl of fresh pasta, or a four-course meal are all possibilities for an evening at Casbah.

Reservations are available up to 30 days in advance; we look forward to serving you!

    Felt rushed and entrees took too long to bring to table. Not the best experience I've had here. Server also lacked personality.

    Casbah has retained its high standards over the years. We last ate here 10 years ago and before that 7 years prior to then. While it’s lost its middle eastern focus and is now more nouveau cuisine, it still is professional grade wait staff, excellently prepared foods and a slightly eclectic vibe. We will come back again soon!

    A bright & beautiful environment that made you feel like you were outdoors! The brunch menu was delicious & the prix fixe really is a steal. Big portions & a bonus that your first cocktail came included. Service was friendly & prompt.
