text: Delucas is the ideal delicious greasy spoon breakfast establishment It is not quite a diner but it has that kind of vibe to it It is busy and a bit worn but the menu encompasses a wide variety of breakfast and lunch items that has quite a following in Pittsburgh The weekend I went the line crept out the door just after am and was extremely long once my coworker and I got settled into our seats at the counternnWho even has a legitimate counter space anymore to serve peoplennThe kitchen separates the two sections of counter seating and this is the heart of Delucas If you can grab a seat there do it From what I have read this place has been featured on both the Food and Travel Networks and the whole time in which I was eating there I felt like there should be a show devoted to this places operation It was totally intruiging Up above the fryer and griddles was a huge plate of bacon to plate and send out with orders Egg shells were discarded wherever was away from a cooking surface and pancakes were shot out with a little dispenser to get them to a big even size for the griddle It was magical How this place keeps orders straight I have no idea Papers with orders are all over but my meal came out correctly and so did my coworkers If it are not broke do not fix it rightnnService was extremely amiable even though they were swamped From the host to the counter girl everyone was attentive and kind My coffee was literally bottomlessat no point was I sitting waiting for a fill up The coffee is not fantastic a bit bitter but it hits the spot and considering how many cups you can get in a sitting it is the only flaw that I found of the place nnI orderd a short stack two of specialty pancakes pumpkin The flavor was ever present without being overwhelming I also ordered scrambled eggs and they were pretty good as well They were not perfect a bit moist and I prefer eggs to be cooked a bit driernnMy coworker had kielbasa and really enjoyed it The meat looked so juicy and I regretted not getting some as well since I love that Polish sausage ohsomuchnnOverall service is prompt and food is delicious I am still thinking about it and would be willing to also wait on that really long line should I ever need to again to get some of that delicious breakfast againnnOh and if you are into cramming as much food as possible into you for a low price for breakfast get one of the breakfast burritos They are bigger than your arm and filled with all sorts of good things The guy next to me had one and it was unreal
