Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Morcilla, a gem in Pittsburgh's dining scene, promises a vibrant tapas experience with "delicious food" and "attentive service." The small plates and seasonal dishes, like the standout oxtail and octopus, are "amazing." While the ambiance is intimate, the noise level can be high. Ideal for special occasions.

    Service was incredible, as always, though the quality of the food has slipped significantly in recent years.

    Having been there before several years ago, I was disappointed in the food - specifically the Iberico shaved ham was dry and tough. However our waitress, Rachel, was a super star - dry attentive and even gave us suggestions for bars in the area.

    The small plates and charcuterie were wonderful. We always love trying a bunch of different things so having a variety of small plates and shareable was a treat! Our server was friendly and very helpful, the atmosphere was fun and relaxed, and the seating was cozy but didn’t feel cramped

    We had a marvelous experience tonight at Morcilla. Starting with our terrific server, Rachel. She was affable, knowledgeable, and attentive. She recommended a delicious red wine from Gaillac that was precisely as she described it, and it was a great value! The food was inventive and delicious starting with the Gildas tapas (anchovies, peppers and olives on a toothpick and baguette slice).. The beef tartare was made to order. The beet salad of with sliced apples and a creamy sauce was excellent. What fun!!

    Haven't been here in a while and forgot how great it was. Service outstanding, food fantastic and you are forced to look outside of your comfort zone to try unusual options for tapas meals. Never disappoints everything was fantastic and our waitress gave some great suggestions.
