"Not your average diner, The Vandal takes common dishes and serves them up with a twist. You can’t go wrong stopping there for breakfast for an egg biscuit or their newest gourmet toast creation. For lunch and dinner they offer a variety of delicious sandwiches and unusual sides." - Ashley Fennell
"You know those rare spots that are good for date night, a solo dinner, a weeknight Happy Hour, and everything in between? For the people of Pittsburgh, that’s The Vandal, a small wine bar in Lawrenceville. The space has a simple bistro aesthetic, and they do a constantly rotating menu featuring peak Pennsylvania ingredients. There’s a cheese plate curated by Chantal’s in Bloomfield, pork chops with grilled escarole, thomcord grapes, and mustard vinaigrette, and seared duck breast served with beets, walnuts, and preserved plum. Pair it all with something from their natural wine list, a Le Concorde cocktail made with gin and concord grapes, or a non-alcoholic Stappi spritz doing its best Negroni impersonation." - elaine zedack, quayla allen
