If you have celiac disease or any food allergies, don’t come here! I visited for lunch and ordered the gluten free shady sticks and the crispy cauliflower tacos with a gluten free tortilla. The waitress didn't inform me that there was a breading on the cauliflower and I probably should have asked but I thought it was fine because the menu didn’t say it was breaded :( We waited for a really long time for our drinks and then once we ordered and received the drinks, she didn’t come back to check on us or refill drinks until after we received our appetizers and food from a different waitress. Our waters were never refilled and both of my friends had their orders messed up. One got the wrong side and the other got bacon in their burger when they asked for no bacon. The waitress didn’t write any of our order down when she took it and she clearly needed to. My friend also got the wrong mule. This was a Tuesday afternoon so there were hardly any people in the restaurant and she only had one other table. I ended up eating a taco before I realized the cauliflower was breaded and when I asked if it was gluten free she said no. I had her just take it back and didn’t order anything else because I knew I was about to get really sick since I have celiac disease. Although I should’ve been more diligent when ordering, it doesn’t excuse the service we received. The servers should be more thorough and clarify when guests are ordering all gluten free menu items.

My husband and I wanted to try somewhere new for our anniversary dinner, and we decided on Soba. From start to finish, our experience was fantastic! One big plus is their complimentary valet parking—a huge convenience in Shadyside, where street parking can sometimes be tricky. Inside, the atmosphere was clean, stylish, and comfortable, setting the perfect tone for a special night out. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making us feel truly valued. The menu is clearly marked with vegan and gluten-free options, which made ordering a breeze. The food was delicious, and we appreciated the thoughtful accommodations for different dietary needs. A particularly memorable moment was when our waitress surprised us with a complimentary dessert, complete with an edible “Congratulations” chocolate banner—such a kind and personal touch! While the dessert was vegetarian rather than vegan, making it something I couldn’t personally enjoy, the gesture itself spoke volumes about their level of service. Soba is on the pricier side, but if you’re looking for an upscale spot for a date night or special occasion, it’s absolutely worth considering. We had a wonderful evening and will definitely be back!

This is my favorite cafe in Pittsburgh!! The atmosphere is unbeatable, the music is always great, Kim and Al and the rest of the folks who work there are absolutely lovely, and the coffee is top notch. The vegan/gluten free snacks are also to die for. 12/10!
