text: I have done the vegetarian tasting menu twice now My first experience over a year ago seemed elegant with proper service and a notrouble attitude about veganizing the tasting menu the food was solidly good but not memorable The second time recently it was a bit more difficult to squeeze the vegan knowledge and ability out of the staff even though I did call ahead to ask if a vegan diet could be accommodated when I made my reservation Our server seemed casual and inexperienced though friendly and he did eventually come through with the information I needed to decide on my meal options Again the food was just good I do realize that Eleven is considered one of Pittsburghs finest restaurants and if I were weighing it against Pittsburgh establishments alone I might add a star But I feel that its reputation brings it into the major league allowing me to unapologetically compare it to the world beyond Steelers Country nnThe distinguishing features of Eleven I think are in the breads try them all best breads in the city and and wine pairings which I believe are very well done I have also attended a happy hour here and I thought the cocktails tasted expertly crafted You might also say that the architecture of the building is remarkable
