The Lion — Restaurant in Pittsburgh

I LOVE THE LION‼️ i was in pittsburgh for a week trip, and after i came in for one of their infusions, there was no where else i wanted to be! there's a wide variety of infusion cocktails which are always coming and going with new delicious flavors. Jason, Rich, and Annalise were wonderful-- attentive, charming, and AMAZING!!! they had their own memorable style which shined in each of the various infusion options. i really loved Rich's style. i seriously cant recommend this place enough. i loved the pineapple serrano rum and the strawberry thyme brandy! The Lion will always have a great record on to match the nights energy, and everytime i was in, they'd have a great film playing too. this place is great to go to solo! the staff make for great conversation and the regulars make you feel at home. come with friends and hang out on the porch or inside in the lounge lighting. i hate being back in Florida because The Lion isnt just a street away anymore!!! unfair!!!! blasphemous!!! trust me, you'll love it. thank you guys for the best time, the best drinks, and the best energy. i can't wait to...

I celebrated my 40th birthday there and had an incredible experience. We had two private rooms, the food was excellent, and the staff made sure everything went smoothly. The bar has a balanced mix of locals and visitors, and it is the kind of place where you can relax, enjoy good company, and feel at home.
