Tessaro’s is a beloved Pittsburgh gem serving up massive, handcrafted burgers grilled over a medley of hardwoods, perfect for a casual bite in Bloomfield.
"A Pittsburgh institution since 1981, Tessaro’s serves thick, handcrafted burgers with a custom blend of beef ground in-house daily cooked over a blend of PA hickory, oak, maple, and ash hardwoods by longtime grillmaster Courtney McFarlane. The tavern-style burgers are the primary draw, though you should also make it a point to visit the historic Bloomfield building on Thursdays for Tessaro’s weekly rib night. The menu is rounded out with steaks, chicken, and sides. Seating sprawls across several expansions; the best place to sit is still the front room, where you can enjoy a burger and cold beverage at or near the 1933 art deco Sears and Roebuck bar." - Melissa McCart, Hal B. Klein
"Old-school Pittsburgh is alive and well at Tessaro’s, located in the heart of Bloomfield. Lit by neon lights and the glare of televisions playing Steelers and Pens games, Tessaro’s has been a beer and burger institution for over 25 years. The menu is extensive, but don’t bother picking it up - a classic cheeseburger is always the order here." - Madeline Quigley
