    Happily, Eleven has not missed a beat since our last visit. The food and service (Thank you, Breanna) remain at a high level. The signature chicken dish is tender and juicy, with just enough crispness to the crust. Risotto is perfection. The pork chop was served with root vegetables, slightly sweetened to offset the lightly salted coating of the pork. We shared the apple dessert. Wine-by-the-glass selections covered a wide enough range to please anyone.

    All you can eat gets new meaning at The Sunday Buffet. Selections includes smoked salmon, a roast beef station, shrimp, mussels and everything wonderful to feed your soul and your body. And the standard bacon and eggs line also has shrimp an grits, biscuits and gravy and everything in between. Fresh fruits and salads are plentiful Dessert stations pop up everywhere. And the donut machine never gets tired of cranking out fresh ones. One suggestion--if you are looking for bread rather than muffins or crackers, a glass bagel and bread case sits right next to the donut machine in the back of the Gandy Dancer space. I just discovered that today. And for such a busy busy place, everything runs smoothly. Service is gracious and attentive. We visit frequently and always take out-of-towners here when they are visiting. "

    Food and service were excellent, Natalie was very friendly and helpful. The wine list had a lot of interesting and reasonable choices. Our Chilean Sea Bass and Short Ribs were delicious and presented very well. This was our first visit to Ritual House, but we will definitely be back!

    Koy served us and he was fabulous! He made the evening enjoyable. The food was good but the steaks were cooked Pittsburgh style with a more form outside edge and even finish throughout/which didn’t qualify as medium rare. The flavor was great but would have like a more tender finish throughout. Other than that everything was good. Valet could be improved if the circumstances permit. Not complaining but it was raining and cold and there was no cover from the elements.

    I had the pleasure of dining at Del Frisco’s tonight for Pittsburgh Restaurant Week, and I can confidently say it was one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had! I dine at Del Frisco’s frequently because I’m such a big fan of the restaurant, but this time was extra special. I brought my sister and her husband to dine with us for the first time, and they were absolutely taken with the atmosphere and charm. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted by the staff, and the entire team made us feel welcome throughout the evening. The menu was thoughtfully crafted, offering an impressive variety of dishes that highlighted the restaurant’s culinary expertise. My sister and her husband were equally impressed with the menu, but the true standout was the exceptional quality of the food. Every dish was perfectly prepared, bursting with flavor, and beautifully presented. A special shoutout to our server, Brandon, who deserves special recognition for his impressive performance and lovely personality. Brandon’s attention to detail, friendly demeanor, and genuine enthusiasm truly elevated our dining experience. The managers also checked on us frequently to ensure everything was perfect, which was much appreciated. Del Frisco’s has truly outdone itself this time. You’ve just earned another customer in my sister and her husband, who are now excited to become part of the Del Frisco’s family. Well done to everyone involved—from the staff that greeted us, to the talented chef, to the table staff, and especially to Brandon. Thank you for making this evening unforgettable!
