Herwig's Austrian Bistro

Hello bistro is a newer establisment on College Ave. From what I 've read it was created by the Owner 's of Eat N Park, a Pittsburgh food institution that has become dated in recent years. The bistro 's menu is simple burgers or salads with a side of fresh cut fries (if desired). Typical costs are around $10 15 so with that in mind I 'd rate this against other fast food places focusing on fresh better ingredients. I 've tried burgers here several times and the buns are fresh, the patty is flavorful and the topping options vary based upon the style of burger selected. The fries are fresh cut, thin and appear to be double fried (crispy) I love them. Salads come in a variety of types or make your own from a large assotrment of fresh ingredients. The salads are huge and hard to complete in one sitting. Overall, I 've really enjoyed this place for a fast and healthier dining option. My only knock is they 've struggled in this post pandemic world, like others, with staffing shortages causing long lines and menu inconsistencies.

The food hits the spot!! Expertly crafted bowls with lots of customization you can tell the staff here really want you to enjoy your meal. Everything came out quickly and well balanced. Will definitely come back!

Great food but our family of 4's order came out a different time making it a huge issue with kids

Good salads and grain bowls. Wish there were more bowls to choose from. The staff was very friendly and service was quick. Clean restaurant.

Good quick, and casual for students. Stopped in here between classes and it wasn't crowded at all. Bf had a burger and I had a salad, neither were exceptional but they were good for the price and convenient for students. Freshness of ingredients is pretty nice, I added avocado to my salad for $2 and I will say that for ordering avocado in Pennsylvania in the autumn, I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of it. I wouldn't go in expecting fine dining or the best burger ever, but the build your own aspect of this place is convenient. It's not too pricey either.
