  I placed an online order , I stopped by the restaurant and the guy in the front door never said, hello, I asked for a fork and his attitude was like if I were asking for free food… when I said thanks , he never said your welcome…. I ordered a vodka pasta with chicken and extra of steak but the kitchen forgot the steak… it wasn’t a good experience

  We visited my wife's family in Pittsburg. We took her elderly mom (91) to visit her sons. The service given by American/RDU was incredible. She was met with a wheelchair... I was impressed with how hospitable American was.

  RIP ATRIA’S 🩶 it was a sad experience being there. It was like being at a funeral. Nothing we could do. Sucks. Our family is from Columbus, OH, and we plan trips around this restaurant. We’ve been going here for years: my parents are from Pittsburgh and knew of this place before it was even turned into a restaurant. We planned a trip to see a Penguins game and stop at this restaurant for lunch prior. Unfortunately, the restaurant was called “1930s by Atria’s” and completely changed. We checked the menu prior to coming and noticed this rebrand on the website, I was hoping it still had their famous burger and onion straws. Before walking in, the valet was annoyed he had to “wait a second” after driving 3 straight hours to get there, and we were the only car there/ no rush. Later I had to go to the car and he was mean mugging/ staring at me, dude, this is our car. Relax. Aesthetic Changes: Walking in, you see bland, gray walls: all the charm and historic qualities of the place, completely gone (the community that makes Pittsburgh what it is). It was disappointing to see this place completely changed inside and out - there are no historical, or community-based pictures of who was part of this town, and helped to make Pittsburgh what Pittsburgh is. Very weird HGTV re-design attempt. The nerve to put Mario, and other Pittsburgh sports photos behind a wall in the very back, next to the stinky bathrooms - no one will ever see it unless they go to the bathroom. There are basic fake flowers, shrubbery, and fake pumpkins with gray everywhere. It feels like ‘anywhere America’, but we still were optimistic that the food would be good. Service / Food: Our waiter arrived, had zero enthusiasm, and a bad attitude. He was annoyed we had a few questions, 1) we don’t live 10 minutes away, we drove 3 hours, and 2) many things have changed since our last, recent visit. The waiter instantly told us they don’t have onion straws anymore, and there are new owners - kind of like a ‘yeah things change deal with it’ attitude - he couldn’t even fake it. We were also told that we can’t get any bread, but you can buy bread for $9! At this point he was definitely annoyed at basic inquiries. My Dad and I asked what the soup was, if they still have the wedding soup - the wedding soup is gone and they only had chili. My Mom came in a few minutes later not knowing what we asked, and asked what soup they have - this time the waiter added that they have French onion soup. Ok, I love French onion soup, that could help save this lunch. Nope, worst French onion soup I’ve ever had in nearly 4 decades on this Earth. The onions were raw! I felt like Gordon Ramsay I felt like this was an episode of kitchen nightmares, (who actually had an episode where raw onions where thrown in a French onion soup before going out - that literally happened here!). Each soup is $10 😆 (we happily pay $10 for incredible French onion soup at the Avenue steakhouse in Columbus, Ohio ran by Cameron Mitchell). Oh, they threw a random piece of bread, floating halfway out, actually not even halfway out: maybe 1/3 third of it was in the soup the other 2/3 were sticking out like a feather in a cap. Not only that, the cheese was shredded/ preserved crap! Not real cheese. It was a deconstructed French onion soup 😆 these people don’t know how to do French onion soup. How pretentious can you be? This is Pittsburgh. What are you doing? Burgers come, my tomato is under a scorching hot patty (that feels microwaved). I had to ask for a cold slice of tomato, which annoyed the waiter. Funny they didn’t just leave it cold with the other cold toppings, especially since they like to deconstruct things (the soup). The burger was like biting into a hockey puck, perfect teeth marks haha. In the past, the beef crumbled in your mouth - I cannot describe it: the best burger ever, especially with the onion straws. Ended up being $80 for three people to have burgers two of us having a soup each we had waters and 1 pop. TLDR: We will never be back. This place = anywhere America. You've lost your way.
