   My wife and I shared the Gambas en Escabeche, the Setas a la Plancha and the Aroz Con Pitu De Caleya. All were outstanding . We shared a carafe of the Verdejo on Draft with another split glass because it was so good. We sat at the only reserved bar seats which is a great vantage point, and the service is excellent

   Every dish is well crafted, flavorful and perfectly balanced. We tried several dishes and you can tell each one was carefully created and perfected before being plated. The ribs were our favorite with flavor, pairings, and texture that words can’t quite describe. All of the staff was attentive and in tune to making sure every table was cared for. Can’t wait to go back.

   Morcilla NEVER disappoints, and we dine there at least once a month. It goes without saying that their food is delicious—they serve many seasonal offerings that keep our monthly visits exciting alongside hallmark, always available dishes (do not skip the oxtail montaditos). Their wine list is stocked with many underappreciated, interesting bottles and even the by-the-glass list always has several intriguing offerings allowing you to try new varieties without the risk of buying an entire bottle. We love to end the night picking out a glass of sherry (one of the few spots in the city where you can get a glass.) Finally, the staff elevates Morcilla from a great restaurant to an excellent one. We are always greeted with kind service that puts us at ease and makes us feel welcomed. Looking forward to our next visit already!

   We may have ordered poorly, but our dinner was not as good as we've had before.

   We had 9pm reservations and were seated immediately. The location is unassuming from the outside but once you enter it’s got a very cozy, warm, and romantic feel. We ordered mostly small plates and shared about six dishes. I highly recommend the oxtail as well as the pork rib small plate. Overall it was an excellent experience except for a bit of a lull between our final courses which one dish came out slight under cooked (the crab gratin). We made the mistake of not specifying how we wanted the dishes coursed because the waiter had the Jamon meat plate and oxtail come befitted the scallops and salad course which threw off our palette. Otherwise it was an incredible experience.

   Maybe we just got the wrong dishes, but our food was too rich and too salty (and I love salt). I was disappointed because all I’ve heard is how great the place is.

   One of the best restaurants in Pittsburgh, if not THE best. Service is friendly, quick and efficient. Incredible value for your dollar, we were surprised by the size of multiple dishes. We ordered a quarter of the menu and each item was more flavorful and satisfying than the last.
