text: This was an excellent meal I was in Pittsburgh for business and Six Penn was within walking distance from my hotel The YELP reviews were varied but I thought that I would still give it a try I am SO glad that I did I dined there on a Tuesday night at approximately The restaurant was fairly full I was dining alone so the hostess asked if I would like to sit at the Chefs table I was escorted to a row of seats nicely positioned along the open kitchen My server Jessica who was awesome approached me immediately I started with one of the most amazing Sangrias that I have had in a very long time handmade with freshly muddled fruit served over crushed ice The drink was well worth the price I also order the cold weather wedge salad as a starter Portion was small and it was a bit pricey at but overall it was pretty good The salad was served deconstructed with bibb lettuce bacon lardoons mustardy dressing and housemade pickle relish For my entree I ordered the skillet roasted chicken which consisted of chicken roasted and cutup on top of brussel sprout succotash topped with a large savory biscuit and bacon bechamel sauce all served in a piping hot cast iron skillet The portion was huge and everything was well prepared My only complaint was the brussel sprout succotash I assumed that it would contain corn and brussel sprouts There were green peas which I do not like and roasted tomatoes which were a nice addition There were SO many peas it was hard to pick around them My server Jessica stopped by to check on my progress and I mentioned my dislike for peas and asked if I could get a side order of just brussel sprouts love them she obliged and within just a few minutes I had a delightful side of perfectly roasted sprouts I happily added them to my entree and proceeded to eat as much of it as I could Even though I was already stuffed I did order dessert and once again I am glad that I did I ordered the individual serving of apple pie and ice cream Once again the portion was huge more than enought for people to share I could not finish it all The crust was tender flaky and delicious There was a nice mix of different types of fresh apples and the entire dessert was topped with cinnamon ice creamyum I usually try to visit different restaurants when returning to a city but Six Penn warrants a repeat visit
