    This is my new favorite veggie-friendly brunch place in Pittsburgh, hands down. The fact that Amazing Cafe is "healthy" and "vegan" is a bonus, but hardly its most notable feature: it serves food that is beyond flavorful. I can't recommend the Buddha burger enough-- it's a super-moist house-made patty with a drizzle of different piquant sauces, with sides of freshly-dilled pickles, crunchy slaw, and a side salad-- each with distinct flavors. So freakin' good. For brunch, the Smile (french toast) and especially the Kindness (potato scramble) options are excellent too. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu. If I ruled the world, I would transform this noisy, functional cafe into a sit-down restaurant with an atmosphere as peaceful as the food. Even so, I plan to forego many fancier weekend lunches and brunches in the future for some of the tastiest food around at this place.

    I highly recommend the Summer Harvest, tulum tacos, and the peace pizza. Their juices and smoothies are also amazing. I started coming here in June. I wanted to lose about thirty pounds, but I didn't want to give up the excitement of trying new foods or going out to lunch. This was the perfect place, with a lot of delicious options and a fun modern environment. I'm now down 18 pounds and I think a lot of it was swapping 800 calorie fast food or 1500 calorie fried Asian noodle lunches for these super healthy options. I never leave hungry and I always leave satisfied and with a smile on my face.

    My vegan best friend was visiting from out of town, and as someone who's trying to transition to a fully vegan diet myself, we knew we had to try this place! The food was incredible. She had the tulum tacos, I had the Buddha burger. To die for. My only problem was the staff. There were three people working, and only one of them seemed interested in being there. She went out of her way to fix a juice that I ordered that had too much ginger (just my own personal taste), and to make sure I liked it better after she adjusted it. The other two barely made an effort to look me in the eye. It could have just been an off day, and no one was downright rude, so I will definitely be back. The food was delicious - I can't wait to go again!

    My acai bowl came with the granola but there was no fresh fruit on top of the smoothie base. It was the acai smoothie base blended with the fruit and they gave me the granola on the side (I took it to go). The granola was okay - didn't have too much of a taste. The goji in the granola was very very chewy and dry. I would recommend them soaking their dried goji berries to make it taste better. I would probably go elsewhere for an acai bowl. Haven't tried their other menu items though! Maybe I'll try ordering their acai bowl and ask for the fruit on top instead of blended in. -----edit----- Employee contacted me via Yelp to apologize for not including fruit. There should have been bananas and raspberries in the topping also. I will come back to try other menu items and edit my review once I do! I have increased my review from 3 stars to 4 stars due to their apology for the mistake.

    Still fantastic and fresh! The peace pizza is delicious! I always want to try something new but just love it! The latte is creamy and smooth! I believe that it's coconut and almond milk blend! The team that works there is just so kind and well-versed in healthy eating! PS... Kid/baby friendly too :)

    I always stay on the Southside of Pittsburgh when I travel for business and have been to Amazing Cafe twice. The menu is limited, but all the food is colorful, well-prepared and generously portioned. The smoothies are fresh and the tea is hot. I've always been on week nights, but the service is great. Attentive. I would possibly only subtract a star for menu choices, but hey....there are only so many vegetables to choose from:). A good distraction from the rest of the pizza/gyro/wing joints on Carson St.

    My friend suggested that we try out this place after a 7 mile walk, wow! was that a good idea! What way better to replenish a sore body with some TLJ- tender love and juice that is! I ordered the "After Party" juice drink, how else could I pass up the apple, beet, lemon, and jalapeno combination?! Woo... how does one explain this drink? You just have to get it. There that's my description... no really, go now and pick up an "after party", then you will understand why it is hard to explain. There are no words that can describe what your mouth will feel. You take in a sip and it's like: "Oh. Ah. Do I like this? Hm... Oh, yeah, I like this." You drink some more, then it becomes "Oh, yes my taste buds (and body) are thanking me, I love this!" I eyed up many other awesome descriptions of health foods that I would love to try in the future, one of which was a lavender donut/cookie of sorts (I forget exactly what it was, but I wanted it!) ...So maybe it's not the most healthy for a diet conscious gal like myself, but the ingredients are based on using the healthiest and freshest foods, so it's going to be made with better ingredients than your local bakery. I did think $5.50/small was a little steep for a juice, but I also understand that using real, organic ingredients isn't cheap and they did take extra time making mine, which was probably why it was so awesome, so I didn't mind. The question is: would I get a juice again? Probably not. I would go for a meal or a smoothie that has more packed into it for the cost. You can get a larger sized "small" smoothie compared to my really "small" juice size for $5 and soup for $6, so it isn't overpriced depending on what you get. I just got the smallest item for what seemed like a higher price, but you are fueling your body with a good product, so it all evens out. It's trial and error anywhere you go. I look forward to tasting some of their food items in the near future!

    Two visits in and I will definitely be back for the terrific vegan food. So delicious. The veggie burger was awesome, and served with baked fries (only good) and slaw (terrific.) My second visit I ordered a smoothie. I was on my bike and ordered a smoothie for take out. I was asked "do you know about our Mason jar deposit?" I did not. Well apparently you spend an extra three bucks to carry a glass jar out to the street. If you bring it back, you get your three dollars back. So many things wrong with this idea for people walking or biking around on Carson Street. Or driving. I'd love to see a car with a cup holder that fits a Mason jar. After being told that they'll serve the smoothie in a plastic cup but "it's bad for the environment" (no kidding) I was on my way with what was a delicious blueberry and almond butter smoothie. I recycled the plastic cup. Good smoothie. Major hipster hassle.

    Simply amazing. We ventured here in negative degree weather, but were immediately welcomed with warm, flavorful aromas. There are two high top bench tables and several smaller tables, but despite the limited seating we had no problems finding a spot. I decided to go for the Tulum tacos, which were FILLED with crisp roasted vegetables, a veggie slaw, and tofu. At $10, the portion was large, and I was definitely full! I was also very excited to try their fresh juice- I had the clean green machine- super yummy and not too sweet! I'll definitely be back for more:)

    Went with friends the first time and enjoyed it enough to schedule a work lunch here. Great fresh local ingredients and very chill and healthy vibe. A little pricey, but that may be par for the course for an organic place. I'd definitely recommend it for after a work out too - makes you feel like you're treating your body right!

    love everything about this place! I got the after party juice and the hope salad and both were perfect. fresh ingredients, good combinations of flavored and textures, not to mention healthy! and the cafe itself is adorable. the blue walls have a calming effect upon entering and the decor is charming. I'll be back for sure!

    Amazing doesn't do it justice. But words just cannot describe some moments in life. The eating experience I just had is one of those. I want to rate 100 stars, but 5 is good enough. I searched "vegan" on Yelp, last night and saw a few close to my downtown Pittsburgh location. But Amazing with five stars stood out. So, I have a love/hate relationship with the Southside. Parking is tough, partying drunk college kids. It's fun though! I love dancing! Today, I decided at noon to stop by and get something for dinner. I currently work 3-11 at a job where food is bleh. Chipotle is the only other option downtown (since they're NON-GMO!!!!!). I walked into Amazing after reading reviews. Beautiful, open space, well lit, bright, fun colors and decor. Delicious! House made veggie burger, aka Buddha Burger to-go. It came with roasted seasoned potatoes, sauce on burger, idk what. The best salad ever! Free water with a hint of lime, dash of Himalayan pink salt whilst I waited. Free wifi. Lovely employees and patrons. I will go back for fresh juices, and smoothies! Thanks to all the beautiful, perfect souls whom made my day, and meal possible! Heaven is a place on Earth with You Mother Gaia! Fabulous food! Go baby, go, go, go! This is real food. Fresh, local, healthy, truly SOUL FOOD. AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE!

    First time visiting the city and this place did not disappoint! Ordered two juices and the pizza, abundance and veggie sandwich. All were so tasty. Even dad who is a meat lover loved his veggie sandwich, didn't even want to share any of it! :D

    Unleash your inner hippie- no dread locks or patchouli required! Tasty gluten free, vegan & local treats galore can be found here. The juices & smoothies are fresh and virtuous, the gluten free pastries are decadent and luscious. The French press coffee was smooth and simply divine. Come here right away for some delicious clean-eating and stay for the fantastically friendly service. I'll be back for sure.

    Best vegan food in south side!!! I love eating here: the food is delicious.. And you don't feel like crap when you Finnish your food! Make sure you check out brunch on Saturdays and Sunday's... Highly recommended the fruit parfait with gluten free granola and the French toast!!!

    Went here for lunch today and it was incredible. Friendly staff, delicious food, and the best mocha I've ever had. The tacos were great and it was a generous serving size - it was almost too much food for lunch! I absolutely love that everything is vegan because I have a dairy allergy and it's hard to eat out. I know I can eat here safely. I wish there were more places like this!

    I was visiting from philly and wasn't expecting much in the way of health food from Pittsburgh. This place is great and as good as any vegan restaurant I've been to in many cities. I had the acai bowl for breakfast, which was done well, very creamy. Then I ordered the gluten free peace pizza which was delicious, just wish they had a vegan cheese option to add to it. The greens and beans soup was very flavorful, and I also had the spaghetti squash with pistachio ricotta? Amazing. When your fed up with shoveling primanti bros sandwiches down your throats give this place a try meat eaters and veggies, you won't be disappointed.

    Amazing is a great name for this place because that's what it is! So stoked to have another raw/vegan option in the city of Pittsburgh. The menu changes often but I've never been let down. There are always delicious options to be had. Juices and smoothies are great too! Great place to stuff your face and feel good about it. ;)

    Delicious, local, fresh food with flavor. No meat substitutes- all real, good food that makes you feel good. The Peace Pizza had delicious tomato sauce, crispy crust and fresh beets and root vegetables with greens and hemp seeds lightly dressed to top it off. The Abundance had good flavor, spice, and heat that made my belly and mouth happy. Can't wait to come back and try everything else! Thank you, Amazing Cafe!

    As the name states, this place is amazing!Amazing Cafe has a chill, casual atmosphere and the food is fantastic! It's not what I would expect in Pittsburg but they really have a gem here. And the prices are totally reasonable for the level of quality and size of the portions. I got the coconut curry with seasonal veggies and brown rice which was awesome, my buddy raved about his soup and alive salad. The juice and smoothie selection looks great as well. They really have healthy vegan food right, very little emphasis on tofu/tempeh soy products, almost entirely gluten free, and tons of local ingredients. It's my guess that you can't go wrong at this spot

    One of the best smoothies I ever had (got a second before leaving) and, when I reported that I had dropped a ring somewhere in the restaurant, they searched for my ring after hours and shipped it to me free of charge!

    I am amazed by Amazing Cafe. Okay, more like obsessed! Guys... This is the jam for healthy eats. Healthy eats that aren't bland. Healthy eats that are delicious in every bite! I've only been a couple times since discovering it, so I've only had a couple of items, but I'm convinced everything must be good! I've had their juices, which are delicious. I've had their smoothie, which was awesome (the chocolate one!) and I've had their Acai Bowl, which is my go to breakfast item. Plus, you can't beat their always friendly and warm staff. I'd love to see this place open earlier for coffee/tea and a nice place to work and have meetings. They currently open at 11am, but have a full juice and espresso bar, so I'd only imagine (and hope) that it's a matter of time. It's great to have a healthy obsession. Especially this one!

    I stopped in here today and this place stacks up to it's name - AMAZING!!! This is one of my favorites !! You walk in, and it is very zen. Beautiful decor, and they cook right there in front of you. I ordered a beet juice and also a new item that was recently added to the menu that was spaghetti squash, kale, romaine lettuce, chick peas, tomatoes, carrots and an amazing cashew ricotta !!!! The food was so fresh, satisfying and delicious!! The people who were working there was so friendly and helpful, and I will definitely be returning. They have sweet parking but it is worth the drive around the block if it is busy !

    I stopped by here yesterday with my wife for brunch. I had read about Amazing Cafe somewhere and after seeing all of the good reviews on Yelp, I had bookmarked it to try for bruch. Other than knowing that I wanted to try it for brunch, my wife and I meandered in to the Amazing Cafe with little other knowledge of it. My first impression of the cafe was that the inside was fairly unremarkable with a couple of chalboard menus, some high top tables and also some regular tables. After quickly taking in the surroundings my wife and I looked around for a moment waiting to be seated until I noticed a big "order here" sign over top of a cash register. So we proceeded over to the cashier and perused the chalkboard menu in front of us. I think that they had 12 items on the menu of which 3 were only available for brunch while 3 more were only available Tues-Fri. Since there was someone in line behind us my wife and I both ended up hurriedly ordering the Kindness (Potato hash, roasted tomato, mushrooms, tempeh, greens and miso "mayo"). I also asked for a glass of water and was shown where I could pour myself a cup and get my silverware and napkins. With that done my wife and I took a seat while waiting for our food. It was at this point that I started to look over the menu a bit more and noticed that the menu was completely vegetarian and it wasn't until I noticed the quotes around "mayo" from the kindness before I finally realized that we were in a vegan establishment. I point this out not because I don't like vegan food but rather because they still had a decent selection of food on their limited menu. While waiting for our food I started to look around the place a bit more and really enjoyed the quote on the wall that said something like "I really wish I wouldn't have eaten healthy today" --said no one ever. After a reasonable period of time our food ended up coming out. It looked pretty good as it came in a large bowl and was colorful from the red of the tomatoes and green of the greens. Even though it had a great appearence I still wasn't expecting that much from it. How wrong I was though as it was absolutely delicious! I really enjoyed the miso "mayo" which I think gave a great spice to the dish and also liked the different varieties of mushrooms (3 I think) and greens (2). The most surprising part of the dish for me was the tomatoes. Getting me to eat a tomato is normally a tough sell as I don't really care for the flavor. However since it was one of the main components on my dish I was obligated to try it and took a small piece. I ended up being pleasantly surprised by the rather sweet and appealing flavor of it. As a matter of a fact I ended up happily eating all of the tomatoes on my dish which I don't think that I have ever done before. The potatoes and tempeh were also pretty good although at times it was tough to tell which was which until you put it into your mouth since they were both white and cubed to the same size. By the time that I had finished eating I had once again happily joined the clean plate club. My wife also became a member a short while later and was also pleased with her entree selection. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. I have to admit that I was rather surprised by this place. My initial thoughts were of the limited menu and the prices ($12 for the kindness) we were paying. The longer that I sat there though the more that I warmed up to the place and in the end the spectacular food really won me over.

    Thank goodness, I can finally stop leaving 1 and 2 star reviews. Trust me, I don't enjoy it! I had previously attempted to dine at Amazing Cafe a few months ago on a Saturday, but was turned away upon entering at 2:50. I didn't realize that they closed at 3 on the weekend. Well, today I tried again and was successful! The menu is small, but this is a-okay because everything is so well thought out and you can tell they really care about the food they procure and the meals that come of it. It is plant-based in case you didn't know, and changes seasonally. The ambiance was clean, casual, and slightly fun with some sweet 80's jams playing over the speakers, decor is on trend, and the two gentleman working the kitchen were kind. We ended up ordering two savory dishes, namely Curiosity, which was a luscious curry with the perfect amount of heat, and Abundance, kofta with tikka masala, greens, mango chutney, and rice. The plating was even pleasing: simple white dishes, each component separate yet together. We both had a small bit of leftovers, so the dishes are ever so slightly too big for humans with normal appetites, but with food that good, I am so cool with leftovers. I will most certainly be back as soon as I can, especially to try one of their many smoothies!

    I stopped here after yoga today (convenient since it was just upstairs) and had one of the best pieces of chocolate cake that I have ever had - Bliss is appropriately named and even after a generous sized piece, I wish I had ordered more to tide me over until I can stop there again. In addition to phenomenal desserts, there are smoothies, juices, salads, soups and sandwiches.

    First time at the Amazing Cafe today. I got one of the green juices and it was SO good. be aware that if you don't either bring your own mason jar or plan to drink in the restaurant you will have to purchase a mason jar for $2.00. Loved it though and am excited to get back and try the food!

    This cafe is dedicated to providing delicious smoothies, juices, and food with the highest quality possible ingredients. I love that they use local produce when they can and (i think) are plastic-free. I just had a delicious banana/cacao/almond smoothie that was huge and filling for just under $8. I will definitely return!

    The food here is great and the people are nice. The atmosphere is chill and a cool place to grab a bite. I will say that it is a little pricey as most vegan restaurants are but I know this will change as more and more places come along. I ordered the Peace Pizza which sounded promising (love the name) and it was delicious! Even better that they have a Gluten-Free crust! I'm don't eat exclusively gluten free but I do prefer it when available and I'm sure most know how difficult it can be to find both vegan and GF as an option. The pesto sauce and veggies make this a dish you can't go wrong with. For dessert, I had the chocolate chip cookie and the almond butter brownie (yup, you read that right, almond butter brownie), both of which are GF as well! My favorite was the brownie - a bit crunchy on the outside and gooey on the inside! The cookie was a great choice, too, but I certainly recommend the brownie. They had doughnuts that looked intriguing, but I didn't take the chance. Overall, a typical all-vegan restaurant with cool quotes on the walls and tasty dishes along with friendly service. Also, I think it's neat that they offer the free lime water. Can't complain! 5/5

    We like everything, and want everyone at home to experience what they have to offer! The smoothies are super good and so is their food. It is Saturday so they don't have what I was hoping to order but that's okay...their peace pizza was incredible. Heidi had the Divine. Omg sooo good! Their menu changes seasonally, I want to try everything! Construction on my route is a obstacle and parking is a pain, but once all that is out the way...it's totally worth the stress. If we were in walking distance, meals would never be a mystery and the family would be in the greatest of health!

    I absolutely adore his place so much!! All of the ingredients are organic all natural and extremely fresh! Pittsburgh needs far more vegan places like this! It's pricy because youre paying for high quality ingredients so don't be deterred by that! Vegan heaven and there is something in it for everyone so make a stop! Pad Thai was delightful so was the arugula salad and the pura vida smoothie made with dark cocoa and almond butter! Mmmmm

    Everything I order here is always fresh and delicious. The only problem I have is with the staff, which keeps me from going as often as I'd like to. Not very friendly, just going through the motions. The food is the only thing that keeps me going back.
