 I've been to all you've mentioned except ToTT: You certainly won't find L'Espalier level food in Pittsburgh (probably
 the best restaurant I've ever been to anywhere!), but La Foret and Baum Vivant are IMHO Pittsburgh's best two. Hyeholde
 is also right up there, and of course the atmosphere is tops.
