Fodor's Review:

What started out in 1933 as a working-class bar is now a Pittsburgh favorite with eight locations. The cheese steak comes with fries, coleslaw, and tomato—all in the sandwich.

A Must When in Pittsburgh

Posted by BastetTheIdol from Pittsburgh on 10/22/07
I have been to the Primanti Bros. in Oakland and the one in Harmar, and both times the food and service was excellant. The tables are placed close together so it can feel quite crowed and can get a bit noisy. If you want a taste of Pittsburgh, this is where to go. If you go though, make sure you bring your appetite because the sandwiches are huge, especially since they place the fries right on the sandwich. I would definately recommend this place to those visiting the city.

Food: 5.0 Atmosphere: 3.0 Service: 5.0 Value: 5.0 RATING: 4.6
