Reviews for APTEKA in Pittsburgh, PA
Dearest Apteka I just want to thank you for an outstanding dining experience. My wife and I visited for dinner a few days ago... and everything was perfect. We started with the apple pancakes and the jam and toppings were excellent in addition to thepancake. I would highly recommend them to anyone considering them. I had the mushroom kebabs and the mushrooms had an exquisiteflavor. I love the way they were wrapped in a cabbage leaf. they had a nice Smokey flavor from the grilling process. My wife hadthe potato dumplings and they reminded me of little tiny donuts. I don?t know what sauce was on the cauliflower that came withthe dumplings but it was amazing buttery and delicious. thank you once again for the great food and great service. The serverswere helpful and readily available. looking forward to coming back soon. Thanks again! Cheers! Read more
Completely changed my perspective on Vegan fare. The borscht, cabbage pie, all the bread, and the dark cherry crumb cake are... incredible. Seriously changed my world view on this type of food. The music is an acquired taste but definitely add to theexperience. It is a journey! Read more
The best vegan restaurant I?ve ever been to! They serve amazing Polish food, traditional but with a modern twist. Super hearty... and authentic. Order few dishes and share to enjoy all the flavours! Read more
Savory Vegan Dishes Achieving Excellence Polish dishes: A kitchen that generally is not thought of as Meatless, has proved that... it does not need meat to be excellent or delicious. All of the food is simple but, do not get me wrong, simple does not mean itis bad or tastes funny. No, simple means basic ingredients, delicious flavor. Everything is handcrafted and perfected to yourpalate in a truly authentic way. The restaurant is, of course, busy with patrons wanting to sample the flavor and taste thefresh ingredients. I highly recommend this restaurant. Update: After comparing and contrasting the numerous restaurants thatI've been to and the vast variety of different dishes I have tried, I can confidently say that this is one of the bestrestaurants I've been to and this has nothing to do with heritage bias in any way.

Parking could be very difficult at times. They are only open for dinner Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 17:00 to 22:00.... Reservations is highly recommended. The food was very very good, it's Eastern European vegetarian. They also have a greatselection of drinks. You order your food cafe style. I love this place. We will be back. Read more

It would be an honor to repeat the meal I had at Apteka every week for the rest of my life. Vegan naysayers can choke on their... words but will happily gobble down anything you're lucky to eat here. The salad hit all the texture delights: fresh crisp,crunchy, creamy, a true wonder. Of course the pierogi are fantastic, get all of them. Service was generous & kind without beingoverbearing. We felt well-cared-for & not rushed. Ambiance was akin to a secret underground dining club: dark and trendy withmodern music. Music is a bit too loud to have an engaging conversation & the uncomfortable seating pair up to hurry you alongbut this is still an exceptional place to stare in wonder at what a talented team can do in the realm of plant-based cooking.
