Pittsburgh

Now the last real restaurant in Pittsburgh, the Milky way is your basic Pizza shop and a little more. They have your regular pizza shop food but they also have items on the menu that are designed for the vegan or those allergic to dairy products. The food is very fresh and well made.

The pricing is decent.

The décor of the restaurant is very common and well lit and the seats are comfortable. The tables however always seem to be a little wobbly.

It’s the only restaurant to eat at in Pittsburgh but don’t let that fool you. You will get good food and have a good time at The Milky Way.

Pittsburgh, currently home to two and a half Kosher restaurants, will soon be down to one and a half.

Aaron & Ari’s, the city’s only Kosher meat restaurant, will be closing two days after Passover ends.

Would anyone like to open up another Kosher restaurant in this city? Because as much as I love Milky Way, taking my observant friends there for three meals a day gets old right quick.
