from Google"We went for Restaurant Week and everything was amazing. The servers and manager were all attentive, kind and cheerful. The food was incredible and well worth the price. We can't wait to go back soon to try their regular menu!"
"I had an absolutely fantastic experience at The Library on Carson! From the moment I walked in, the cozy, book-themed ambiance and moody lighting created the perfect vibe for a relaxed evening. The staff was incredibly welcoming—shoutout to Dee and Keresty for their attentive and friendly service during our Sunday birthday brunch. They handled our large group with ease, and everything from the bottomless mimosas to the smash burgers was spot-on. The menu is creative and delicious, with standout items like the garlic grilled cheese bites, truffle fries, and seasonal French toast. I also loved the rooftop patio and upstairs lounge with a pool table—such a cool surprise! Whether you're grabbing cocktails with friends, enjoying brunch, or just hanging out solo, this place hits the mark. The Library on Carson is now one of my go-to spots in Pittsburgh. Great food, great drinks, great people. Can’t wait to come back!"
"The Library on Carson is such a gem! The atmosphere is cozy yet upscale, with gorgeous book-lined walls that make it feel unique compared to any other spot in Pittsburgh. The cocktails are creative and well-balanced, and the food is just as impressive (the truffle fries are a must-try!). It’s the perfect place for a night out with friends, a date, or even a classy solo drink. Service is always friendly and attentive. Definitely one of my favorite go-to spots in the city!"
"The brunch menu is delicious. It's small but mighty. I highly suggest whatever seasonal French Toast they are offering. Additionally, the atmosphere is cozy and the service is great! It's the little hidden brunch gem of the South Side if you ask me. Additionally, if you're just looking to grab a cocktail, the bar is really nice as well."
"The Library on Carson is such a vibe! Cozy, stylish, and somehow perfect whether you’re here for a solo night with a cocktail or a fun date. The half-off wine on Fridays is chef’s kiss, the spinach artichoke dip and Brussels sprouts are absolute musts, and the house-made espresso martini, the Black Beauty, is the perfect nightcap. The staff are friendly, the drinks are expertly made, and the atmosphere just hits — highly recommend checking it out!"
