Social House 7 - Pittsburgh (PA)

5 /5 Antoinette G: Social House is a positively outstanding restaurant! First discovered during the 2024 Best Bites Downtown and then for a pre-Benedum performance in 4Q 2025, my date and I were so impressed that we returned again on January 3, 2026, also pre-Benedum performace. From engaging and attentive servers (who made great menu recommendations) to well-crafted cocktails to flavorful robata (sat in a booth where we could watch the chefs!) and delicious socials/entrees, Social House 7 delivered an exceptional experience. The atmosphere warm and well designed. Highlights from January 2, 2026 were the Fusion Fashioned, Miso Glazed Salmon and Social House Salmon (see photos). A booth with a viewof the Robata chef added to ths evening. Highly recommend and plan to dine again soon!

5 /5 Elizabeth Spelsberg: Wonderful spot to eat after spending the day downtown. The atmosphere is modern and relaxed. We got the hot sake, the matcha and sunrise cocktails. The spicy edamame and fried gyoza were delicious as were our entrees and sushi. My 8 year old daughter loved her rainbow roll. Lee was our server and they did a wonderful job taking care of us! Cant wait to come back again!

5 /5 Mandy B: Pleasantly surprised by Social House 7! Atmosphere much cooler than I expected- dark and purple lighting, cool intimate cubbies to sit in in the back, front of the restaurant open to air it was beautiful out- although that does allow bugs to fly in). Our server was great! Very friendly, good service, and gave us an extra roll on the house. We ordered vegetable gyoza, a vegetable noodle dish, the Godzilla roll, Crazy Salmon roll, tunarashi, and veggie roll. Ordered a bottle of cab sauv and another person had vodka on the rocks. The Godzilla and Crazy Salmon rolls were very unique and delicious with a smoky flavor, and one almost tasted like a cheeseburger or steak!

2 /5 Safaa: After eating here i understand the reviews. The food looks like it was made by a child. Just look at my fried tofu and dumplings. Also 14$ for some terrible gyoza, and only 4 of them??? The only good thing i had was a tempura roll, and even that looked like it was made by an unskilled hand. I only ate here because i was really hungry and tired and it was beside me. The mocktail was pretty good. The restaurant was full with middle aged and old people that early had no idea what japanese food is like

1 /5 Becky Hamilton: We came here to celebrate a birthday. Our reservations were for 7 people at 7PM. We got there maybe a minute or two after. There was no table ready. We had to wait 15+ minutes for a table to be cleared. There were groups walking in after who were seated right away. Our table was right beside the entrance. Everyone at the table was cold. The double door entry is open at the top so every time someone would come in or out we were blasted with cold air. There was a spot on the booth seating that was broken. It was so dark where we were you couldnt read the menu. The service was terribly slow. I dont know if Our waitress was the only one working, but she didnt come around much. We ordered drinks. Two of the glasses were filthy and sticky. The water glasses on the table werent much better. It didnt feel clean. One of the meals was labeled a mid-spicy and it was inedible. Good flavor but certainly not mid-spice. Another meal was ordered with waygu. It was a chipped beef, not slices. For something that was nearly as expensive as the meal, I was expecting more. The portions were good, but way overpriced. We were so excited to try this place and left disappointed.
