Hofbräuhaus Pittsburgh

Closed the kitchen and bar early without explanation. Really disappointing.

I was back in town and brought some co-workers to dinner here. They had a band playing and the whole place was in party mode. We all had a great time! As I noted last time, the food probably isn't authentic but it tastes good.

We came when they first opened at 11AM. The server was great but the food quality was poor. The sourkraut was really and the German potato salad had almost no flavor. Every item we had was missing spice and lacked flavor. Too bland for other German food I have eaten. I think they are more known for their Beer.

I can’t say enough great things about the GM, Vinny. I called in with a special request and he knocked it out of the park. We were able to surprise my husband on his birthday and I really appreciate the help with making it happen.

I'm not done eating yet and all I can say is this is delicious! We don't eat German food very often but another reviewer mentioned they offer gluten free choices so we took a chance. I'm having the GF wurst sampler with mashed potatoes and sauerkraut with an additional side of red cabbage. I paired it with gluten-free New Grist pilsner-style beer. The restaurant is full of long tables, wonderful serving staff (thank you, Maria! , and a nice selection of beers with Bavarian music playing in the background. I'm very happy with everything! Thank you, Maria!
