About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for business meals
Casbah is a neighborhood restaurant and wine bar located in Pittsburgh’s East End. From the year-round garden patio to the dining room, from the cozy bar to the wine cellar, each visit can feel like a new and special experience.

Casbah offers a broad menu focused on northern Mediterranean-inspired cuisine from Italy, Spain, France and Greece that emphasizes local ingredients. All meals start with warm, house made bread from Eleven’s kitchen. A cheese plate followed by appetizers, a bowl of fresh pasta, or a four-course meal are all possibilities for an evening at Casbah.

Reservations are available up to 30 days in advance; we look forward to serving you!

    Nate was the server, and was excellent. The food was, as always, excellent. The menu doesn't change a great deal, but it doesn't have to. The menu is what brings us back, and the icing on the cake is the excellent staff, flawless service, and top flight atmosphere. It's a space for special occasions, but every visit to The Casbah becomes one, especially if you're there with folks you love.

    I had never been to lunch at Casbah before and am happy to say that I look forward to returning! The service, ambience, and food were excellent. I had the patty melt with the mesclun salad and a seasonal mule. My friend had the swordfish with the tomato bisque followed by crème brûlée. I enjoyed both my salad, which was mixed greens and radishes dressed in a light, peppery vinaigrette, and my sandwich. My sandwich filling was cooked to my desired temperature and served on grilled bread with a side of sauce. It was very good. I did not taste my friend’s food. However, she said that she enjoyed it.

    Everything was excellent. Our out-of-town guest was very happy with the meal and atmosphere. It was crowded for a Monday evening; we were pleasantly surprised.
