"Not impressed. We arrived on time for our reservation and they made us cool our heels for 45 minutes while they seated everyone else. The claim was that someone was still sitting at our table. But we were a party of two and they had many empty tables for two when we were finally seated so I doubt that they all came empty at exactly that moment. No apology
for the wait.
Food is fine although not so special relative to the pretty good restaurant scene in Pittsburgh. They do have some signature entrees that go with the theme implied by the name but overall the menu is pretty generic American (burgers, sandwiches, fish, meat).
We shared the meal for two (big rib-eye with bone in, icky marrow thing, and very good potatoes and mushrooms.

"Attended Meat and Potatoes on Mother's Day and it was fantastic. Our waitress was efficient, knowlegable, and friendly. We had to make our concert on time and she made it happen. My third visit to Meat and Potatoes, the food was great! They are always consistent. Oh, yes the manhatteans were exceptional. Kudos to the bar."

"We weny to M & P after the symphony. I guess that was too late-should have known by young age of people coming in. We sat in the bar/dining room? and couldn't even think because of the loud , pulsating music. Pretty sad after the beauty of Pgh Symphony. Loud bar people- We ordered 2 wines, and then told waitress we would have our check. She brought us 2 wines in juice glasses (girls beside us had wine in normal wine glasses) for $20. I was happy to leave-went to another place-with so-so food but peace and quiet.
I guess we went at the wrong time but I have no desire to return!!!!!!!"

"The wait staff was very good and knowledgeable and the food was good. However, we arrived at 6:15 and did not receive our entrees until 7:25 and had an 8:00 theater performance to get to, so we were a little disappointed that we did not have time to sit a bit after our meal, or to consider coffee, dessert, etc."

"Love, love, love their food. But the curvy tiny tables with the 'couches' are pretty tiny. It's not unbearable but it's small and the food plates take up a lot of room. They are also close together which can cause some issue. But really, once you get past that you find the food amazing and the drinks delicious and the staff is so super friendly and knowledgeable. They all seem to be in good spirits. If you complain about the table they would move you. However, we were content to just stay at the smaller table and not be a pain. Next time we go (and there will be a next time) I think we might request to not be seated in that area."

"I have eaten lunch a couple times at Meat and Potatoes and was looking forward to my first time eating dinner there for 2 main reasons: 1. there was an awesome lamb entree on the menu that I knew my wife would love; and 2. I had eaten the best bread pudding in my life there when last at lunch. Unfortunately, neither item was on the menu the night we went there for dinner. But the food we did have was delicious and my pork entree was large enough to make 2 people full so we were not that disappointed."

"I've been to your restaurant about 4-5 times prior to my last visit. It's always been awesome.
The ONLY issue that I had with my last visit was this:
Monday night I brought my NYC client there for dinner to celebrate a new account. We were engaged in conversation and not even 1/4 through our dinners when the bus boys and girls started coming over about every 5/10 minutes trying to grab our plates and ask if we were done. This happened about six times. It was rude and we were pretty turned off by about the third ask. There were several open tables around us so we found this very weird. I should never feel rushed out of an expensive restaurant."

"For brunch, you can't ask for anything more than the short rib hash. Delicious! Bellinis and Irish coffee are also wonderful. You can eat at the bar, so if reservations for two or three are not available, I'd try and see if spots are available at the bar."

"One of my husband's first comments after checking out the decor, bar and menu was that the restaurant was trying too hard and was so hipster it became pretentious. I won't disagree with those statements; a beer list filled with cans of IPA (there are a couple other options plus a few on tap) was the first clue. All that aside, this is a great restaurant. The service was quick and friendly and the waitress was aware of our show's start time based on the reservation confirmation call. The food was great - the most delicious was the mussels (especially with the bread we added to sop up the Tom Kha like sauce). Overall, this was a fun dinner; just be aware that it gets noisy early and you'll probably be seated (very) close to other diners."

"I had lunch here twice. Both times the food was delicious & the service was great. The only thing I would say is a negative is the size of the restaurant. We were seated in booth/chair pair that was shared by multiple people. It was a bit cramped & not an intimate experience. It was very easy to hear other patrons conversations as they could hear ours. That was uncomfortable, but overall the food was delicious & the service was great. I would go back, but request to not sit in the booth row."

"I first saw Meat & Potatoes featured on a television show and thought it would be a good place to try. We ordered the Meat & Potatoes For Two from the menu. You get a good sized rib eye (34 oz) with huge steak type fries, sauteed mushrooms, and a large section of bone with marrow! Make reservations (we did) to ensure getting a seat. Among the highlights, the moment that I accidentally dropped my lap napkin onto the floor, a gentleman who was not our waiter immediately brought me a clean and folded replacement. The only thing that I thought was a negative was the lighting. I understand the concept of subdued lighting for dining but the very dim lighting made it VERY hard to read the menus."

"We really enjoyed our visit to Meat and Potatoes to celebrate a birthday. Although we made our reservation a month in advance, our table was not ideally located - right next to the bar, heavy traffic area, which added to the overall very high noise level and made it difficult to hear each other.
However, the food was excellent. Between the three of us we had the salmon, duck breast and veal cheeks. All were innovatively prepared and presented and of very high quality. The shared desserts - chocolate mousse and coconut bread pudding - were fabulous. Enjoyed the wine as well.
Would definitely go back.

"Another fantastic meal at Meat & Potatoes. This time I had brought some clients who were in Pittsburgh from overseas, and both were thoroughly impressed at the experience. M&P is now cemented as one of my go-to favorites for a variety of occasions."

"I treated my boyfriend to dinner here because I love going to a restaurant with great food and he just wants chicken wings and a good draft. So this was an amazing accommodation for the both of us: great food without the "frou-frou" names and plating. The draft list was original and had great variety. The manu was also unique but comforting. We couldn't help but order too much and have to take some home. I can't wait to go back to try more of the menu."

"The food was great, the atmospehere unique. Would definitely go again.
Only drawbacks were:
1. The lighting around the bar area. It was insufficient to read the menu and there were several patrons other than myself squinting to read the interesting drink descriptions.
2. The service at the table. The waitress was not attentive, did not clear dishes as they were finished, did not speak directly to us, and generally did not conduct a smooth dinner service. Granted she may have been new to the job and treated all the other tables she was hosting the same way. The table to our right had similar complaints. I will also specify that this issue was confined to her alone and the other staff members appeared to be more diligent and accomodati"

"I went here for my birthday yesterday for the first time. I had been waiting to try this place out for a year now after hearing rave reviews for a while. This place was fantatic!! The service was suberb, and the food was even better! I'd like to thank our server, Matt, on the awesome service he gave us. My boyfriend and I both ordered the flat iron steak, and were on the verge of being depressed when we were close to the end of our meals. Everything about this place is amazing! I've been to a lot of places that are touted as "perfect", and I can usually find some small fault, because I can be petty like that. Meat and Potaoes truly is perfect. The service is attentive without being annoying, the ambience is fancy yet casual, and the FOOD"

"Only dissapointment with this restaurant was that our reservation was made for 8pm, they still were not able to seat us until around 8:30. At that time the restaurant had already ran out of a few of their dishes, one of which I had wanted based on previewing the menu online. The restaurant did redeem itself by offering the first round of drinks on the house."
