We stopped in for a Saturday lunch and we were not disappointed one bit! This place is such a serene spot to eat at and the food is amazing. I never knew rice could taste so good! Service was amazing and so were the portions. Can’t wait to stop here again next time we are in town.
The absolute best place for Vegan meal with African infusion. I had the Pilau with crispy Tofu it was served with a sauce. The meal was delicious, they served cold hibiscus drink on the house and it was so refreshing. The hospitality from the team is 💯. Definitely going back with friends for more good food and great vibes.
Essence is a awesome place for vegetarians and vegan friends. The restaurant is located in vibrant area of Pittsburgh. The service was super friendly and accommodating with my tow kids.
We had a larger group dinner party. Everyone was very accommodating and helpful. The cauliflower curry and samosas were pretty amazing. Only hiccup was there was some sort of delay, so many of our meals came out cold.
Delicious little place off of Carson St. serving the best African cuisine I’ve ever had, and it was vegetarian to boot!
Just wonderful! I am four months in as a vegan. There isn't many options here in Pittsburgh. I ordered while at work and let me tell you, the food is great! Very delicious. This restaurant is perfect for vegans and vegetarians. I even had my friends who always talked about the way I eat try it and they loved it. I will definitely be coming back!
I am obsessed with this place and the Falafel burger meal. The consistency, hospitality, and taste are all a 10/10! Describing this place as PHENOMENAL is an understatement!! Thank you 😊 oh and the MINT LEMONADE!! Chefs kiss!!!
The best vegan spot in the city! Pittsburgh needed somewhere with options like this. I've never had African influenced cuisine, and the spices are like none other! There is so much depth in the flavors. I'm excited to come back and try more things.
This is by far the best restaurant in Pittsburgh! I canât say enough about the amazing food, service, and hospitality theyâve provided to our family. We had the roasted chicken, the flavor was amazing! Thank you Gâs on Liberty!! Our cocktails
This restaurant is attached to a bookstore which creates an artsy and cozy atmosphere. The menu from James Beard semifinalist Chef Zozula speaks for itself â I recommend getting something with lamb. Oh, and definitely upgrade the chips to the roast

We ended up walking in 30 minutes before they closed. We didn't want to over stay our welcome, but we definitely felt welcome! Would love to come back & explore the menu some more
What a wonderful experience. The atmosphere is very pleasant, the servers are helpful and friendly. We started with the roasted carrots. I was skeptical but our server said it was a favorite. They were phenomenal! Well seasoned and cooked so they wer

I've not had Empanadas since I moved out of Washington DC. Over 20 years ago. And I was not let down today , I got the spinach empanadas and they were excellent just like I remembered, staff was wonderful and the location though simple was spotless.
Absolutely recommend. Itâs casual but also a bit classy. The bar is beautiful and the drinks are amazing. We also ordered food in the dining room and it was also amazing. Buffalo cauliflower was GREAT and the wedge salad was fantastic. It was a spe

We loved every moment of being at this restaurant. We were pleasantly greeted at the door, and given a seat . There was a DJ playing music from 11 to 3 for brunch. The menu is very diverse. I ordered the boozy cookie crisp latte. This was so good ,a
I joined Stride as a founding member because it was close to my apartment. I didnât run much prior and walked the first couple months of taking classes there and can honestly say every workout is as high or low impact as you want to make it. Every
