Jerome Bettis' Grille 36 - Pittsburgh

Missing my JB36 Fam and fans!!!! Heard that it's coming back, but pretty sure that the rumors are.. It would be an epic thief!

I was afraid of waiting for this place. You do not accept reservations. There was already a bad start with the host giving wrong...

We were there during the pumpkin festival. The service was slow. The food was very good and the prices were reasonable. The Nacho appetizer was huge! We also had the Spinat Dip appetizer. Our burgers and pommes were a good size and very tasty.

I sat here after we picked up our packages for a local 5k. My wife and I sat outside on a pretty slow lunch time and were pleasantly surprised with the variety of beer they had on Hahn. We enjoyed several drinks while hanging in a very nice outdoor seating area. For food we ordered some nachos with chicken (with chili topping on the side) and a buffalo chicken flatbread. The nachos were huge and amazing, although we were happy that we ordered the chili on the side when it tasted something sub par, I guess we were lucky there. The flatbread was just as good, so much that we ate it before I had a chance to make a picture. Overall a pretty good experience, although I wonder if it would be so good before a big concert if they were blown up!

I debated between 3 or 4 stars. We had a very nice, chatty waitress who seemed sincerely sorry for the drink situation and was constantly refilling our glasses.Their CO2 was out which severely limited the drink choices. There was no happy hour offering on a Monday at 5pm. I asked for a seat with a nice view (meaning the river) she put us at the opposite side looking at the street we just walked. There are Buffalo Wings AND Hot Buffalo Wings on the menu which made us think the first option was on the mild end not so! They were hot, burned our lips hot. The blue cheese dressing had no chunks of blue cheese, just the opposite of my preference. As for the entrees, his Hall of Fame burger Patty was delicious, brisket short ribs ground together, char grilled med well. Fries were ok. Mac n cheese was very tasty, although a good amount of bacon to make you really thirsty. My fish 'n chips was not greasy, good, light cod fillets. The biggest surprise was the dressing on the coleslaw, a really tasty vinegriatte. We splurged on the brownie dessert for 2, rich, chocolatey, just what you expect. For being right beside the stadium, the price we paid for dinner was very reasonable. I would say this is a decent Pittsburgh spot, but I wouldn 't rate it for foodies.
