Note: This review is for the pizza (and mac and cheese!), since I'm not a (beef) burger eater.\n\nI came here in April with several friends before seeing a musical at the Byham. None of us had been here before, but we came here based on the convenience and the good reviews. I ordered the sweet Georgia Brown pizza, which has BBQ chicken, pineapple, red onion, and cheddar cheese. It had an interesting sweet-savory flavor profile, and a nice crispy texture. It was pretty good, as pizzas go, and definitely an interesting departure from typical pizza fare. I recommend it.\n\nOne of my friends ordered the shipwrecked burger, and found it delicious, if a bit over-the-top fatty. Another of my friends ordered the macaroni and cheese, per the waitress's recommendation, so I had to try it, as the resident mac and cheese connoisseur. I wasn't expecting to be impressed, but the sauce, which was on the milder side, was surprisingly creamy and well-seasoned, and complemented the tenderness of the shell pasta nicely (score: 9.0). If you go there, try it--this has to be the dark horse of mac and cheeses in PGH!\n\nThe atmosphere of this place is dark and kind of cave-like, with weird decor. Like another reviewer, between the place's logo, the decor, and the waitress's \"uniform,\" I felt that it came off as trying a bit too hard to be hipster. It definitely has character--though I don't know if it's quite the right type. Service was fine--no problems there. Overall, an interesting place worth trying if you happen to be downtown.
