    This was our visit to a Primanti Brothers Restaurant and Bar location. Our waitress helped us with our questions about menu items. We ordered the Rueben and the Pitts-Burger. What wonderful selections! These are two fantastic sandwiches. Our order came quickly and tasted delicious. It was a pleasing atmosphere. A well lit building with televisions around. A clean nice restaurant and I recommend stopping. The picture with this review is a Pitts-Burger.

    Went to primates to eat enjoy some drinks and talk to manager to book a party for Christmas. Many open tables but took a bit to get seated. Asked to sit in bar area at a high top. They sat us in a completely different area. Asked to move to the bar area. They did accommodate. Ordered a drink and it took about 20 to 25 minutes to get. Place was empty. Ordered our meal and asked the waitress if we. Could talk to a manager. She went right to him. But he never came. Order a second drink and took another 25 minutes even though there were 3 bartenders. When she brought the drink she was walking away while saying sorry. I now understand why they were empty. It was a terrible experience. On one positive note kudos to the cooks my sandwich was excellent!

    Our server Mackenzie never checked back until we were almost finished. The fries were small pieces and overcooked. Spoke with manager before leaving and he really did not seem to care. Worst Primanti experience ever

    Definitely an improvement on their wings. I got the Lemon Pepper Dry Rub. The fries were kind of icky- old, hard, cold end bits, but I'm chalking it up to being a Monday night. Ordinary they are good. The bartender was friendly and attentive with a busy bar. My to-go pizza was not appealing. Maybe it's just me, but I dont like char-blackened pizza.
