Very happy to find this place. The burger was freshly made with all the condiments and it was not the enormous US size (in other words exactly what I wanted, and it was only $12.50). Came back again and the sandwich was good too. A huge array of beers to choose from and loads on tap too. Screens of interesting... More

Every time that i've been to The Sharp Edge Bistro on Penn I have always been impressed with the quality of the food this restaurant serves. Everything is fresh & the menu offerings are impressive. This restaurant is a great meeting place for Downtown professionals. The layout of the dining room is thoughtful, with plenty of options to sit down... More

Never even knew this place existed until this past weekend - loved it! Great atmosphere and beer selection. We did not eat but enjoyed the couches and cold beer. The alcohol was priced rather high, but I guess for the choices, it is to be expected. Would go back!

Had lunch here with some co-workers on a Friday. It was great. Good atmosphere, the place looks brand new. I had a burger and it was cooked perfectly, tasted great. The appetizer we got was a little odd compared to the description. It was the Mediterrian Nachos. They are not what you normally consider nachos; it was pita bread that... More

My husband and I stopped here to eat before going to the Pittsburgh Home and Garden show. I had the chicken avocado panini and my husband had a turkey jalapeno burger. We both were happy with our choices and would stop there again. I'm not a beer drinker, but I should mention they have a huge selection beer here!

Almost right next to the Convention Center on Penn Street, The Sharp Edge was a last-minute pick for lunch. I was hungry and they had food. I chose right! The Belgian burger I had was excellent and prices were reasonable. I would recommend this for a quick bite to eat if you are in downtown.

While the resturant makes an effort to promote its being "upper", its really like a classic burger joint. Having set the record as to its food, the environment is a solid 3.25 as is the food a 3.25--particularly the burgers. The staff is efficeint. In short, you can't go wrong as long as you understand the biggest advantage is the... More

Wine selection is tiny, but really why would you even drink wine here when you're surrounded by so many great beer options. When visiting last Saturday night the wait was only 15min. There wasn't any locally interesting games on- which would probably pack the place otherwise.

I visited The Sharp Edge last year during a conference and loved it, so I was excited to go again this year. It didn't disappoint. I like the variety on the menu and the beer selection is outstanding. The prices really depend on what you you can get a good deal or you can spend a lot. I chose to... More
