What People Are Saying About Elbow Room
The Editor
Contributor
Citysearch
In Short – The Elbow Room has created a family-style pub that attracts a somewhat more upscale Shadyside crowd with its outdoor seating, drink specials and exotic menu. Instead of traditional burgers, clubs and standard entrees, the kitchen serves specialty salads and sandwiches like the grilled eggplant, spicy chicken salad and Muenster tuna melt. There's also a kids' menu replete with skinless hot dogs, penne with marinara or butter and more. – –
Value and Satisfied Experience
by HungryPittsburghMan
This place has a good bar along with ample seating. The menu offers traditional American mixed with some specials like Mahi Mahi and Seared Tuna. Meunu prices equal are a good value. Steak, salad, sweet potato for $24. Cooked to perfection. Street parking only but probably the best value American food menu in Shadyside.
- Pros: Tasty food at Competitive Prices
- Cons: Street Parking. Sometimes gets really busy at peak times and weekends.

nice patio
by corey78
Nice, cozy outdoor patio Mixed drinks were weak, and the fried calamari greasy - oil in the fryer likely wasn't hot enough. Love the ambiance though. Next time I'll sit inside. Head's up - they allow smoking inside so if you're sensitive may not be the best place.
