Reviews for The Dor-Stop Restaurant in Pittsburgh, PA
I’ve heard about the Dor-Stop and wanted to come here for so long. I’m so glad I did! Absolutely scrumptious breakfast. I... cannot express the feeling of bliss I got from eating my fancy pancakes here. The two others in my group agreed that thisrestaurant is the bomb! It is super affordable considering the neighborhood, and like I said above, it is delicious. I’d liketo shake the hand of whoever owns this place, because it is wonderful to have an oasis where I know I can sit and have excellentfood for an excellent price (coming from a college student). My only critique is that I expected the potato pancakes to besavory. The potato pancakes tasted very sweet to the point I didn’t enjoy them much and had to salt them heavily. I liked thatthere were onions in them. I would maybe just add a note in the menu that they are sweet tasting so people know from now on.Everything else was perfect though. I haven’t watched the Guy episode yet, but after visiting, I definitely will. Read more
Well after seeing them featured on triple-d I had to go check it out and the try the French toast and breakfast burritos.... Neither disappointed and the staff was friendly and fast with the food! Coffee was also good. Make sure you get there as soon asthey open otherwise you’ll be waiting outside before you get seated. Read more
On a scale of documentaries to romances, The Dor-Stop Restaurant is a small-town, cozy romance novel. Weekends mean wait times... of 20-30 minutes or more so make sure you plan to wait. With limited indoor wait space, you may be outside so dressaccordingly. Booths are snug, and tables with chairs are equally cozy. The diner vibes include friendly service, lots of coffeerefills, and tasty food. South of the Border omelet is a delicious choice as is the raspberry french toast. Sundays includefree parking, but you can park on a side road for free if you can find a spot. Be careful of "permitted" street parking as well. Read more
Had brunch and celebrated my four year old grandson's birthday. The servers got into the celebration and were wonderful! The... oatmeal pancakes were awesome too! Read more
Tl;dr- Lovely little neighborhood spot. Reasonable prices & top notch service! Great eggs, disappointing hotcakes. I had a... veggie eggs benedict, and really enjoyed it. My order came out quickly, with perfectly runny eggs. I ate the whole thing! Mypartner had the hotcakes and found them disappointing- perhaps it was an off day. The hotcakes were served upside down, like youcould tell they had been flipped more than once and the cook couldn't tell when they were ready. His "well done" bacon was limpand even the server acknowledged when bringing out the order that the bacon wasn't well done as requested. (He declined to sendit back to the kitchen, as it was slow coming out to begin with, much slower than my eggs). Despite the misses, we wereoverwhelmed with how great the service was!! We will be coming back to give it another try, and hope for better. They have aconvenient tool on their website to add your party to the wait list, for times when it's busy. Read more
Friendly staff, good service! We ordered the Texas French toast and omelette w/ O’Brien potatoes and grits. Overall we enjoyed... the meal very much, eggs were made to perfection, cheesy and flavorful! Potatoes were also good. The grits was okay, needed tomodify to our liking (salt, pepper and a little butter). Read more
We went on a Sunday morning expecting to wait long to be seated and get our food. To our surprise, this place was run so... efficiently (especially considering they are low on staff) that we were seated almost right away, and our food came out in notime! The food itself was delicious! We tried the Irish Benedict with potato pancakes, and both were delectable. Not to mentionthe service was amazing as well. Highly recommend!!! Read more
I wish the place was larger. We were a party of 4, so we had to wait for almost 30 minutes, although it was Sunday. The food was... great and they had quite a variety. I had seasonal pumpkin spice pancakes...perfectly light and fluffy. Our waitress wasfriendly and attentive. I gave her an extra tip just for her. She has a crazy job and works hard, plus the pandemic put a largeburden on all wait staff. We thanked her and left with happy tummies. ???? Read more
