Italian American and Greek American food are safe bets, particularly more old guard places in The Strip or nearby. Also pastrami or any old school Polish American meal. If you're feeling more hipster or upscale there are plenty of other places to satisfy. Otherwise expect to find fries jammed in places they don't really belong. You could do a lot worse for a small city on the edge of the Midwest.

It was really terrible for a while although like a few other rustbelt shit holes the reputation got so bad that it depressed property values enough to make it actually a bargain hunter's dream. So it's had a bit of a rebound in the last 10 years

But the stereotype is it's full of unemployed, angry, semi-literate right wing former steel workers. Zero culture, shit food, and nothing to do but gripe about minorities and dream about the factory opening again

This is not at all true though. Even 20 years ago Pittsburgh had a live music scene and a reasonable amount of nightlife for such a small city. Being something of a college town kinda helps with that. It never sank to Detroit levels. And because of that some Portland/Brooklyn hipster types were drawn by cheap real estate in actual neighborhoods. Of course that's a mixed blessing. You can find a good cup of coffee and cute little Asian fusion places. But it brings a little preciousness to a town that was resolutely blue collar enough to put fries in their sandwiches.

Just shows how much damage /pol/ has done to this place. Any place where you're likely to find liberals, immigrants and minorities is automatically shit.

Pittsburgh is gorgeous. The mountain areas north of Pittsburgh are the most beautiful places in the country I've ever been to. I lived there for 2 years.

Primati's is overrated garbage. The italian bread they use falls apart and their sandwiches are a mess to eat. If you want a good sandwich go to DiBellas, which is a chain, but their sandwiches are far superior. The pizza at Primantis is way better so get that if you still want to go to Primantis to just see what its like.

Theres also the Haufbrauhaus in Pittsburgh if you want to eat at a german biergarden styled place.

Also, you have to go to Sheetz since they have walk-up kiosks where you order the food and they make it for you fresh like sandwiches and pizza, etc. The chili macaroni and cheese is amazing for a gas station.

Pittsburgh also has the United State's largest furry convention so I'm assuming that's why you're visiting.
