With Jim's uncle in from Florida, we decided to try the Pittsburgh Steak Company in the South Side. We were happy to find out it's a wonderful place to go for a great meal. Around here, steak houses tend to be either very expensive (Morton's/Ruth's Cris) or very cheap (Ponderosa). Pittsburgh Steak Company is on the high side of moderate (dinner for three with drink, dessert and tips ran about $30 a head), but the food was excellent. We had various kinds of beef, twice baked potatoes and desserts. I don't know if the desserts are homemade or not, but the chocolate suicide cake was excellent even though it wasn't completely thawed out. Even the garlic bread had decent amounts of garlic on it. The onion rings were perfect. The food quality probably most reminded me of Ken's Steak House in Framingham (MA). My only complaint about the Pittsburgh Steak Company is that the beer selection is limited. They did have Sierra Nevada, so it's not as bad as those restaurants that only carry Bud, Miller and Iron City.
