    D's is a great place! Its unique as far as quasi-bars are concerned insofar as I go with a friend and have some dogs/burgers/pizza/wings and a few beers, and have a great time; yet feel equally as comfortable taking the family for a night out. The food is good, the staff is friendly, the prices are great, and the beer selection is fantastic. Its a great place for a family meal on a budget!

    One of my favorite places to go have a drink. There are really 2 areas, each of which are well-worth the trip alone. The first area is the "beer cave". Think high-end bottle shop, organized by country of origin. There are some really rare finds that rotate through, plus all the favorites as well. Anything in the beer cave (I thik there are over 1000 brands!) can be taken over to the eating area, and there is a rapid chiller to cool down your unrefrigerated bottles. There is also a large walk in fridge to grab beers as well. The eat-in area serves a variety of quite good bar food, although I've only had the hot dogs once or twice. The fries are great, and the draft selection in this area is awesome as well. Overall, go here if you want a great beer selection and good bar food. It's always pretty busy and the service is good!

    we love to go to this place when we are in visiting the in-laws. it's a great place to meet up with old friends, order greasy food, drink craft beer, and catch up in a relaxed setting. The place can get kind of loud at night so make sure your group of friends aren't hard of hearing. The craft beer selection is excellent. You can make your own six pack to go or drink any one of the unique beers in-house. They also have beers on tap for a cheap price. Food wise, their wings are decent and the pizza is greasy and cheesy. The place is pretty bare bones 'burgh style. Not trying to be something it's not, but still offering unique, quality beer from around the world. For that I give it my fandome and return business.

    not bad! good dogs, super beer selection, and lots of hype. I enjoyed it. I wouldn't scream in ecstasy over it, but i would visit again if I were in the area. Thumbs up for the veggie options and the reasonable pricing for good food.

    This place is one of the reasons we decided to move to Regent Square. I am not really a huge hot dog fan, but the BEER CAVE and FRIES keep me coming back (not to mention that it is walking distance from our house). We lived in San Francisco for several years, and this place also reminds us a bit of some of our old haunts in the Mission. :) In the summer, they open up the garage style windows, so this is a perfect spot to sit, sip beer (skip the wine though-- its not great) and work on your laptop or newspaper. If you are not into sports and just wanna chill, D's has two sides, so you don't have to feel outnumbered by screaming Steelers fans. D's always has a nice mix of people as well- from young couples with kids, students, hipsters, to elderly folks. The staff is really nice and friendly and the large mural of local Pittsburgh celebs is pretty neat as well! Yeah, this place is one of the best, laid back spots here. I am in love with the FRIES! I know I said this once, but they seriously do something very special to them that I cannot figure out.

    I love this place. Hands down my favorite place to grab a beer in the east end. They have a great draft selection that changes often in addition to a beer cave of cold bottles. Staff is efficient and friendly and they play great music. I also love their wings...D'sWing Dust (dry rub) is my favorite flavor.

  • Sam I.

    This place is like my second home. Not just because of the beer. Not just because of the great food - like hot dogs, pizza, burgers, salads. But, because I just love the atmosphere there. The staff is awesome. The people who eat/drink there are always there to just have a good time while enjoying having a few great beers. I recommend this place for anyone that just wants a beer, anyone who loves hot dogs, etc. Their pizza is actually REALLY good. Oh, and they have gluten free beers, which is good since I don't eat/drink anything with gluten in it!

  • Dana S.

    While living in Regent Square I went to this place way too often! It has a great selection of beer and the food is pretty decent - they probably serve the best fries I've ever had. It feels more like a restaurant in the sense that you wouldn't sit here drinking all night, but if you go for a drink and a dog you're going to have a good time.

  • Samuel K.

    The beer selection is incredible. If you're ever looking for something stop by here - they most likely have it. The dogs (which are the only thing I've ever gotten) are excellent. You just can't beat a good beer and a good hot dog, and this place does both extremely well. I try to hit this place at least once a year.

  • Amy R.

    Great food, GREAT drink selection. I have never had their hot dogs, because I'm generally not a fan of hot dogs, but my husband says they are fantastic. They have great wings - normally I'm not a fan of the dry rub variety but their ranch dry rub is great. Dip it in some blue cheese and it's just perfect. I'm a huge fan of hard cider, and their selection of 15+ varieties makes me a very happy customer :-) I love how you can just go pick it out yourself!

    Tourist perspective: The beers were flowing here. Dozens of microbrews that I need to get to know better as well as Guinness, black and tans, and Unibroue Terriblé...a 10.5% ABV, 12 oz challice of dark strong flavorful brew. Pints are $5-8 depening on how obscure a beer you are ordering. But there is crazy selection. Try something different. Did you know, in this town....and I guess in this state, you don't buy your beer in the grocery store? You gotta go to spots like this for a sixer. If you need a beer, pint or to-go, this is an effin' cool spot. mix and match a sixer. We tried a bunch of dogs, wings and beers. The crew here managed to keep our glasses full even though it was packed on st. patrick's day. We tried a few dogs: the mac and cheese brat (with bacon)....really! bacon, mac n cheese on an effin' hotdog, a bacon cheddar brat and something called the mason-dixon, which was french fries & coleslaw on a dog. All the dogs were good eats. You can get your order vienna, veggie, turkey, cheese brat, or on a spicy dog. The dogs arrive well grilled with a little bit of crisp blackening going on. There are a shit load of additional toppings you can request (avacado, bacon, various mustards, saurkraut, etc.) and they seemed to be free...at least we didn't get charged anything additional .....Everything was included in the dog prices. Wings were ok. We did dry wings: jerk, spicy ranch, and parmesean. They were all decently meaty. The parmeseans with a side of the spicy mayo were good stuff, distinct flavor and good for dipping. The other flavors of dry wings were ok. Mostly just salty, but ok.

    best beer selection ever! it was hard to pick just one beer out of the beer cave. The food was really good. Big fan of the fries!

  • October R.

    To speak ill of D's would be blasphemy to any true Pittsburgher. It really doesn't get much better if you're in the mood for pub grub. Pizza is awesome, the fries are amazing - I'm going to go as far as saying better than Potato Patch - they are so crispy and not swimming in grease! What is their magic method? The burgers and dogz - all gluttonous goodies and you can get them all veggie style. If you're watching your waist line you may want to skip this place...but I say go ahead and treat yourself! Oh! And did I mention the beer selection isn't too shabby? Watermelon beer in the summer...mouth watering.

  • Donna H.

    D's looks unassuming, but it's really over the top. Sure, they have fries, but why not order fries with bacon and cheese on them, plus ranch dressing on the side (You should, by the way - those are the pub fries and they are delicious). You could order a plain hot dog, but why do that when you have a choice of five different kinds of frank, and toppings like the Chihuahua: avocado, salsa, cheese and jalapeno? Plus, your dog (even if it's a turkey dog like mine) might arrive at the table with a little char on it; that to me is the peak of hot dog flavor. I feel like a restaurant that serves cheese sauce like a food group should have a warning label on the door, but with their sense of humor, the label would say "Warning: the food inside is damn delicious and best consumed with a great beer."

    Hot dogs were delicious and fun to mix and match toppings. They do fried dogs too and it's great. Beer selection is obviously fantastic. Check our their beer cave!

    I enjoyed my evening experience here last night. The bar was really busy but service was still fast. They only serve beer and wine downstairs. If you want a mixed drink you have to go upstairs. We ordered a large supreme pizza, and it was really good! The wait staff was super nice!! Would definitely grab food and drinks here again

  • Monica T.

    This is our favorite neighborhood restaurant. They serve "bar food", but there's a nice variety of vegetarian and non-vegetarian food. My favorite items on the menu are the veggie dogs, pizza, and soft pretzels. You can't beat their beer selection. Make sure to visit the beer cave while you are there and their section of take-out beer for an even larger selection.

    D's, Oh D's. What a fun place to hang out, walk thru the beer cave and drool...also select a few beers to go. While it is not gourmet, U can have a gourmet dog. The root beer is great, too. So bring the kids. Friendly but gruff service! lol! Try the fries with chili or cheese! or the pimped up Pub fries! Yum! They have other food but I tend to get a dog, my fav is the Chicago Dog.

  • Lauren G.

    D's is just one of those places I love going to. I can't get enough of picking out my own 6 pack of wonderfulness. All amazing beer. The food has never let me down. The service has always been good. This place is just awesome.

  • Julia B.

    D's is my place! They have enough types of beer to tickle my fancy and the fancy of 25 others at the same time. And then we can all eat Big Ben dogs and die happy together. Go to D's.

  • Anna S.

    I'm subleasing an apt across the street and have been in a few times now. Hot dogs are good and cheap but the burger options, although still good, are close to $10 each. Nice draft selection but also pricy. Their happy hour is $1 off drafts 4p-6p everyday, so that's still $4-5 for a beer. I'll be back though.

    (4)
  • Kiersten S.

    Sometimes I get these intense cravings to stuff hot dogs and greasy french fries in my face. As someone who doesn't eat meat, the hot dog part of that is a rare occurrence. Thankful D's gives the option for veggie dogs. This makes me very happy. It also makes my hangovers happy too. Not to mention they have an absolutely spectacular selection of bottles and drafts. If I'm not here enjoying the little pleasures in life - such as fat, grease, and gluttony- I'm enjoying another sinful pleasure, booze. Every time I come here I'm overwhelmed with choices. This place is magical.

    Pittsburgh's very own "Cheers" I've lived in Pittsburgh for about 5 years now. I've been coming to D's for about 3...D's is one of the many gems of Regent Square. It really is the place (if you go often enough) that everyone really does know your name....as well as what you like. Or in my case...the only beer I actually like enough to drink more than once. The bartenders are all amazing people and really make you feel comfortable. The service is great and they are always ready with a recommendation for any newbies. All it takes is a few questions and they have a few suggestions. I have a friend who loves Magic Hat, and when finding out that D's didn't have it on tap that night, was totally bummed. When she told the bartender that she usually drinks MH, he made a recommendation. I was not at all surprised (she was) when she loved what he'd suggested. Your trip to D's wouldn't be complete without trying something from their extensive menu. Their hot dogs are great (and for those of you who are vegetarian, they have awesome veggie dogs), the pizza is delicious, and if you're craving wings, there's no better place to go (try the Jamaican jerk...they're my favorite!). Okay, so you're thinking good beer, good food, good service, what more could they possibly offer? DON'T LEAVE YET! Before you head home, hit the beer cave and take some to go. If you can't find something to drink here, you may just be too picky (or a non drinker, which is totally okay, but I would suggest the root beer they have on tap before you give up.) My sister and I stopped in over the weekend for some pizza. We had the pleasure of meeting Dino, the owner. He's incredibly friendly and just a nice guy ( he bought us both a drink!). We chatted for a bit, and he moved on to greet some other patrons. I think it says a lot about any place when owners and employees alike can be found there on a day off. If you're visiting Pittsburgh and anywhere close (heck...even if you aren't close) head to D's and grab a taste of a great local bar

  • Gerald M.

    NOT gourmet food, but incredible (better than gourmet) fries and hot dogs! Quick. Delicious. Ohhhh, forgot to mention the beer. We truly learned about beer at D's. Maybe $20.00 for food and $100.00 of remarkable beer to take home. Yeah, we had a couple to go with the dogs and fries... and the rest went home for tasting (that's a fancy word for drinking). Seriously, I do not know of any place that has more beers on tap or in a bottle anywhere! Although we have been visiting the Monroeville location lately since we live in Murrysville, D's Regent Square is where we learned about beer. (and fries!) Like a kid in a candy store, you will love the Beer Cave.

  • John S.

    I'm over it. Too many instances of bad service. Though that one woman who I have seen working there for a long time is solid. But going back to what I started with; seems like the inmates are running the prison these days. The beer to-go costs more here than it does in New York City or Brooklyn. Think about that people. (The Monroeville location is better, imo.)

  • Patricia S.

    How have I not reviewed D's yet?? I moved away from Pittsburgh over 5 years ago and EVERY time I come to town, I go to D's. I can't stay away from the awesomeness that is the large walk in fridge of specialty bottled beers or the take away section in the back where you can grab all kinds of good beers you want. Oh and they have a little quick chiller for the warm beers you grab in the back so you can drink them right away :-) The food! Ok, I love the veggie dogs on the bun just plain, but I've been rockin' some of the specialty ones lately. I highly recommend the Chihuahua with jalapenos and avocado, or the Mac n' cheese, with...well, mac and cheese. The housemade root beer is also divine. It's perfectly sweet and refreshing. This isn't diet food people! There are far too many (oh so lovely) temptations at D's. Splurge and get the cheese fries to share. A small is good for 2 or 3 people and perfect with hotdogs. Once you get a table, sit back, relax and enjoy the goods.You won't regret it. D's is definitely not a rush-in, rush-out sort of place.

    My cousin and I went to d's for a yelp event and it was awesome! It was the first time I'd ever been there and I'll be going back. We had wings, hot dogs, and awesome homemade chipotle hummus. They even had veggie dogs for my cousin! Everyone there was so nice. If you drink good beer the beer cave will awe you. ..hell I drink Miller lite and I was in awe. So many beers!

    (5)
  • Michael E.

    Something different here. Food, schmood, go there and drink the beers from the beer cave. I don't think you have to wait for the server to open your beer, they'll notice and charge your accordingly. It's all walk in and self service beer, why don't more places do that?! Mike

    (4)
  • R S.

    Obviously the great rep of this place is their beer selection. A lot of bottles. Decent tap selection, though you are guaranteed to have a rather lopsided selection among the taps. Food is fair; I've yet to go there with others and have our whole meal come out at once. Salad will come first, then a couple of dogs, then fries. If you are polite and civil and believe in not eating until everyone is served, well, let's just say that no one ever taught the manager, cooks or servers here that lesson. Now, their service: Really lackluster. "Entitled" is the word I would use. It pains me to give them 15%, because honestly, they don't earn it, even when I was a regular and knew some of them by name. Meh.

  • Will B.

    Their hot dogs and fries are affordable and good but even though they have like 300 different beers in bottle their beers are over price and will triple your tab. That and yet have a limited draft menu.

  • Lauren B.

    Awesome place! I discovered this when I was looking for a place to buy beer to go by the bottle that had a good variety, then I discovered this place was a full bar/restaurant. Besides getting bottles to go, you can also drink from any of their many drafts on tap or their individual bottles. Many are already in a chilled section, but they also have a beer chiller machine that can chill a room temp bottle in like 5 minutes! And they have a huge selection of beers, both imported and local microbrews. They also have a nice menu with a variety of things, including hot dogs, hamburgers, salads, etc. Hot dogs are one of their specialties and I'm not a huge hot dog fan but the bratwurst I had with bacon and mac-n-cheese on top was amazing! I also had the fried zucchini appetizer which was cooked perfectly and the sauces were very tasty (marinara and a spicy ranch-like sauce). I went on a Wednesday evening post-happy hour and was surprised how super crowded it was, so it may be hard to get a table on weekend nights.

  • Amanda L.

    My husband and I live walking distance to D's and we do love D's... but the place is always so crowded and noisy, that I can't give it more than 3 stars. I can't add much in the way of reviews here as to the food here, I think everyone has pretty much hit the nail on the head. The dogs are good, and I am happy they have veggie dogs. Beer selection is amazing. It's very family friendly, so if that's what you are looking for this is the place for you. Personally, I work with children all day & love them to death, don't get me wrong... but I find parents here tend to let their children act out a lot, and I find it really distracting and not relaxing. Since I am with children all day, I like my meals to not involve yelling and running children. So to solve that problem, we just order take out and eat our dogs at home!

  • Anna I.

    This place is really cute, and great to go for their Beer Room, where you can make your own six-pack. I did not enjoy the bar's chicken wings very much, but definitely a great place to try some unique beers and yell at your friends over the general hubbub.

    (4)
  • Kay E.

    The mac n cheese dog I had was just ok, but the Mason Dixon with its slaw and chili was killer. The fries and barbeque wings were just as good. I also liked the atmosphere, the mural, and the employees who were really nice and honest and helpful. It's in a cool neighborhood too. Go!

    (4)
  • Mark G.

    D's has so many great things about it, it's hard to pick which one's the best. The whole atmosphere of the place is great, very laid back and everyone there is always enjoying themselves. Obviously, the beer selection is great. I don't know how many different brews they typically have on hand, but it's a lot. And you're encouraged to go pick out your own beer from the walk-in cooler, even if you're sitting at the bar. The staff there is always friendly and you can sample some of the beers on tap if you're unsure of what you want. The food is pretty good too. The dogs can be simple or loaded with all kinds of toppings, and are a staple of D's. They also have a good selection on the rest of their menu too. Chili cheese fries - great. If you haven't been there yet, stop by in the afternoon on a Saturday or Sunday for a great local vibe.

  • Joseph S.

    Enter into D's (after figuring out the correct door - I still make this mistake) and you'll be greeted by a long draft bar. For Chrissakes, they have Delirium on tap! The real jewel, though, is in the back. You have the beer cave with hundreds of different types of cold beers for carry out, or you can build your own six pack from the unchilled beers and chill them on the spot. D's is still the only place I've ever found the elusive Hopfenweisen by SchneiderWeiss and Brooklyn Brewery, perhaps the best beer I've ever had. While D's is worth it for the beer alone, the food's not bad either. The pizza is average, but they truly do have the best hot dogs in the city. Finally, bring a growler or buy one of theirs. Prices are reasonable and the selection is outstanding.

  • Brian B.

    went here with a couple friends who live in Pittsburg for a quick drink. Really cool atmosphere. I got the run down as we sat about how it's a beer store and bar/grill all-in-one. weird liquor laws i suppose. they had about 20-24 brews on tap. went with the Terrapin Hopsecutioner, which I've had before and really enjoy it. They had a lot of local seasonals on tap, but I had to drive and I was tired, so I stuck to only one. Food was decent. Typical bar/grill menu. We ordered up some Pub Fries and Wings. Decent, nothing special, but I wasn't expecting the world. My friend got a Chicago dog that looked amazing.

    (4)
  • LaMar W.

    D's is a great dive bar in Regent Square. I had a Chicago-style dog with bacon, and fries to go, for around $6. The dog looked like a chef put some real love into it - it was picture perfect, lightly dusted with celery salt, relish tucked in like it was ready for a commercial. The taste was perfect! The fries were awesome - batter-dipped, super hot, crispy and just salty enough to not need extra. I'll definitely be back. Not a lot of joints know how to do a good Chicago dog. Good cheap eats.

    (5)
  • T.C. J.

    D's quite possibly has the best beer selection in Pittsburgh. There are always 20 micro brews on tap and they rotate seasonally. Last time I went they had a variety of pumpkin beers and I pretty much tried them all to figure out which I liked best. If you aren't feeling any of the beers on tap then take a stroll to the walk in cooler in the back and take your pick of hundreds of bottles. Bring the one you like back to the bar and the bartender will open it for you and bring you a glass. The bartenders are really chill, and though the service isn't overly attentive, it is perfect for the vibe of D's. And speaking of the vibe, D's has this old pub style feel with the walls meeting at strange angles making cool little nooks and crannies where you can sit and sip your beer with friends or maybe just read a book. D's is also known for their hot dogs, and while good and inventive, in my opinion are a little overpriced. For some reason I have trouble spending $5 for a hot dog. I've tried their wings and fries too, both good standard bar food, but again a tad overpriced. My friend and I drank beers (a good amount) and ordered food and our tab was $100. D's still remains the gem of Regent Square and is worth the pilgrimage to Beer Mecca if you have never been.

    Awful service; took us 2 and a half hours to get our food and the waiter forgot several items (then added a few beers we didn't order on to our tab; I'm assuming because he thought we were too drunk to notice.) Then we find out that after we had nicely split the tab for them (even adding in an extra $10 on top of the grat because we were too lazy to re-do the math) that they wouldn't split the check? In the time we argued about it, you could have run the 3 credit cards we had and been done with it. Had to argue with the manager (who was completely unhelpful, with one of the waiters standing behind her and being rude to me for backup) for 10 minutes and they didn't give us an inch. I would have stiffed the waiter for the awful service if I could have; but we got gratted so I didn't even have that option. If you want to come here with more than 3 people, avoid D's. Their beer is severely overpriced ($10 for a beer I can get at Sharp Edge for $6? no thanks!) and the food is the same fried garbage covered in cheese you can get at any other bar in Pittsburgh. In other words, don't come here. I used to like this place, but tonight was such a bad experience I'll just go to one of the other places in Pittsburgh that serves hot dogs, french fries and beer. There are plenty of them, I won't miss D's at all.

    First off, even though McBrooms is the place to get beer... D's is a great second option when I want to get something nicer, or when McBrooms is closed. Anything from a case to a single bottle whenever you need it, already chilled, no strings attached. Prices are fair for the service too, and a walk-in beer cooler is definitely a plus. Also, the hot dog selection is great for both carnivores and vegetarians. My two favorites being the Chihuahua dog and the red alert dog. Spicy, spicy.

    best. beer. selection. hands. down. We waited almost an hour for a table but the bartender was super attentive the whole time and was on point with suggestions. It was def worth the wait too! We ordered a pizza and a few apps which were so good. No complaints here - we will totally be back.

  • Jessica W.

    I go to D's almost every Wednesday night for a beer and a veggie dog after an hour of bouldering at the Wall. Their beer selection changes often, and I've never been disappointed. If I don't know what the beer is, they'll often bring over a sample to try to make sure I like it. The veggie dogs are great, the cheese fries are great, and I've never had a problem with the service. It can get crowded when a game is on, but just grab a beer and wait for a table. Pros: Fun menu, great draft beer selection, beer cave! Cons: Sometimes crowded and loud

    CM and I visited D's yesterday (Sat.) at around 7pm for dinner. Given that CM lives right around the corner, and that I had a City Dining Card, D's had been on our list for awhile, and we were eager to check it out. We happened to arrive right when the Kentucky Derby was in full swing, and there wasn't a table to be had, so we gave our name to the hostess to be texted when a table became available (Note: D's uses NoWait). Fortunately, we arrived right at the end of the derby, so several tables soon cleared out, and we received the text within 10 min., despite an estimated wait of 15 min. Once we were seated at one of the high tops next to the mural, we perused the menu to decide what to order. Because I don't eat beef, I decided to go with the turkey dog ($5.50), style of the month for May (topped with pierogies, onions, and sour cream), as well as a veggie dog ($5.50), Angry Tiki style (topped with bacon, pineapple, hoisin sauce, and spicy cheese sauce). CM decided to go with the bratwurst dog ($6.50), Mason Dixon style (topped with chili and coleslaw) on a wheat bun (+$.50) and a turkey dog, Big Ben style (topped with fries, cheese wiz, and cole slaw). In addition to the dogs, we ordered a large order of fries, pub style ($8). The fries were brought out first, per our request, so that we could munch on them. I'm pretty sure they were the largest order of fries I've ever received--they would have solved the Irish potato famine in a jiffy! They came drenched in cheese wiz and generously sprinkled with real bacon bits (not Bac-Os!), with a sizeable cup of ranch dressing on the side, which we promptly poured on, as well (yeah!). Despite all the dressings, the fries were pleasantly crispy, due to being of the battered variety. However, over the course of our meal, they became progressively more soggy, due to the dressings soaking into them. Between the two of us, we finished about 2/3 of them--not too shabby, esp. for people of our size! As for the dogs, to my surprise, I was more of a fan of the Angry Tiki than the pierogi dog of the month. When it comes to the dogs themselves, I preferred the turkey dog to the veggie dog, which I found bland. However, the toppings of the Angry Tiki dog were so flavorful that they masked the blandness of the veggie dog, which was only detectable when I bit into it alone. Although I thought the turkey dog itself was more flavorful, I wasn't impressed as much by the toppings, which consisted of what were no doubt Mrs. T's pierogies and too many grilled onions for my taste (I removed many of them). CM preferred the turkey dog to the bratwurst dog, and the Big Ben to the Mason Dixon style slightly, but enjoyed both styles. The service at D's was friendly and efficient--our orders were placed and fulfilled promptly and with a smile. During the short time that we waited for our food, CM and I enjoyed examining the mural, which contains many real life and fictitious characters, and the monk decorations on the other wall. Although we didn't order any beer, we checked out the beer cave before leaving, and were quite impressed with the selection--now CM has a neighborhood go-to spot the next time he needs to bring a six pack to a party! With the City Dining Card, our total came to $23, which I felt was quite reasonable for the amount and quality of food received. In sum, we were very pleased with our experience at D's, and would definitely return, esp. in light of the proximity to CM's residence and the extensive beer selection.

    Amazing hot dogs. LOVE their DOM (Dog Of the Month) Its always something crazy. For September 2015 is the Greek dog. They have great burgers too. Somewhat crowded, but still so worth it.

    I was really excited to try D's Six Pax and Dogs. But from the moment my friend and I walked in on a Friday at lunch time, we were kind of bummed. We sat down at the bar, and the bartender refused to even acknowledge us, let alone serve us. So we switched to the other side of the space. The service on the other side was better but a tad slow. I started with the macaroni and cheese ($3.00). It was just doctored Kraft mac and cheese, with a bit too much salt, but for the price is was reasonable and good. I ordered a Chicago dog ($5.50), and the hot dog was an all star for the most part. It was an authentic Chicago style dog, and the toppings were fantastic. My friend ordered a Big Ben hot dog, and it was pretty gross. The cheese picked up the vinegar-y taste from the coleslaw, and it made the cheese taste sour. Not appetizing at all. D's grills their hot dogs, which is normally fine. However, both my friend and my dogs came out very burnt. One of hers was literally inedible, and these hot dogs are pricey. The server did not say anything about the practically untouched hot dog and just took it off of the table. They do have some daily or lunch specials for cheaper hot dogs so check that out. The verdict? I would come back here for a Chicago dog and ask them to boil it to prevent the risk of a singed dog, and I would return for the beer cave.

    To me Pittsburg food is anything with coleslaw and fries. Case in point, different types of hot dogs with coleslaw and fries. Fries here are amazing and I really enjoyed my hot dog. They have a good selection of beer and an amazing beer cave where you can pick your own 6 pack from different brands and flavors. A must.

    Great fries. Lots of bar food -- burgers, six packs, dogs...etc. The restaurant is small and got VERY crowded. A few tables and wooden chairs and a couple of high top tables by a garage door that I imagine opened when it is not frigid cold out like tonight. It is like a beer bar without a bar. Several beers on tap...I imagine that is the reason for the crowd because it certainly isn't the food. The food is greasy Pittsburgh fare that doesn't seem really all that great. Granted, I loved the fries. But would I wait for 30 minutes for a table for really unhealthy, generally unimpressive food? Nope. Fortunately we had just beaten the crowds or I would not be writing this review. After we were seated, people poured in. Families with little kids and groups of older adults standing in the crowded doorway waiting for the opportunity to eat mediocre food. Hmmm....makes me think a new restaurant in Regent Square is in order because there is clearly a deficit.

    Met my sister here and never had been here before. Got a bacon, onion and cheddar hot dog. Amazing. I also got the D's wing dust wings and it was quite possibly the best flavor of wing I have ever had. It tasted like a bbq chip with a kick crushed up for the flavor. I highly recommend that.

    Pretty danggum awesome hotdogs, beer, and anything you could possibly want to order in a bar that would immediately spike your cholesterol 50 points. Serious nachos? Check. Fries drenched in meats and cheese? Check check. It's some Blue-Collar goodness, with a little Hipster aftertaste. The hotdogs are worth the hype (yay Angry Tiki dog with pinapple and bacon!), and the beer cave is a happy place with one of the best selections in the city.

    went for a late lunch with friends. I'm a new single mom with a 7 month old and my friends had a 2 year old along as well. our server was extremely attentive and incredible about the kiddos being along. he brought crayons for the toddler and was one step ahead of our needs which was amazing and unique... it's not always easy to go out with a kid in tow where you can get great patient service AND good food and beer. I had the Cuban dog (pretty terrific) and sweet potato fries. one small order could probably feed 2-3 people...good to know for next time. the beer selection was super. I've been looking for barleywine style ales in this area and most places I've tried haven't even known what I was asking for. these guys were able to help me put together a cool sampler of a few different kinds to take home and try. this was a great visit and D's will definitely be on my beer and food radar in the future. also loved the open air bistro feel for summer. the price seemed a little high for hot dogs but the dogs were really tasty and after it was all said and done, I feel like the value of the hospitality, the good food, and the atmosphere were well worth it.

    This place was really awesome, and I wish there were more places like it. Boyfriend and I and a group of friends were in Pittsburgh for the weekend, and I found D's on yelp. The hot dogs looked delicious, and my friends are real beer fans, so we thought it'd be perfect. It was better than expected. First, obviously, the beer selection is amazing. You can either order off their menu, choose a beer from their walk-in fridge, or venture back into the Beer Cave (where they've got every beer ever) and throw a bottle or too in the chiller. Five minutes later, the beer's cold and delicious. We all took advantage of this, and picked up six packs on the way out. Second, the hot dogs were really good. I definitely recommend the Angry Tiki dog. Sweet, spicy and really delicious. The only thing is they don't handle groups well. There's plenty of room, but once we'd already split up our check amongst everyone's credit card, we were told they don't usually do that for more than 6 people. The guy did it for us anyway, but it took awhile, and I'm still not really sure who got charged for what. If you're in the area, or even almost in the area, make a trip to D's. It's definitely worth it.

    The best hot dog I've had. Ever. I also have to say trying to decide which hot dog I wanted was by far one of the hardest decisions I have had to make (food-wise). Eventually, I got the chihuahua dog because it was out of the box and I wanted try something new. It comes with avocado spread, salsa, cheddar cheese, and jalapenos. The dog itself was perfectly crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside and really just the best I have had. The toppings were great and I was happy I gave it a try. My friend got the bacon and cheese dog. I was expecting bacon bit type bacon, but they were full strips of bacon that were perfectly crisp and the melted cheese was right on. I am certainly going to come back and try a new hot dog. I am very exciting to finally have a hot dog place that I know produces fantastic tasting hot dogs. I would definitely recommend you give this place a try.

  • Gary G.

    OK, this is a place to get beer and the food is secondary.However service still matters and the service on my visit today leaves a lot to be desired. First the food. Great Chicago dogs with all the fixings but so so Cuban dog with underwhelming toppings.Perhaps it was because their fryer was out but the toppings on the Cuban dog seemed to be out of a plastic pack from Giant Eagle.The beer was fine a Belgian ale, probably the best part of my experience. The first server I had did get me a second glass of beer but although I asked for a menu never got back to me to see what I wanted to order.Eventually another server did and I ordered.So if you want a beer definitely come on over and for some of the hot dogs you'll be fine but if you want consistent service forget it This is the ultimate in bro style service best suited to half loaded college students or anyone with low expectations of service at a bar and grill.

    While everyone goes here for the dogs, the pizza is not be ignored. Hand tossed crusts with a nice selection of specialty pizzas. Appetizers are good as well. Hummus is a solid choice. Not a fan of their wings. Beer selection is on point and if you can't find what you want on tap, head into the beer cave. I like that you can find a crazy variety and try new beers. Always busy, so be prepared to wait.

  • Rachael B.

    I love D's! Every Tuesday, a group of us from Pitt come for the large one-topping $10 pizza night! The waiters and waitresses are always so friendly, I have never had a bad experience here. The beer cave is a must! They have such a variety of beers, that there is something for everyone! Once you make your choice, put it in one of their beer coolers to make it nice and cold. You are crazy if you don't like D's!

    D's is perfect for those not so fancy afternoons. I love sitting outside with my dog and people watching while sipping on one of their unique beers. the staff is always so helpful with suggestions on what to drink. the pizzas are decent, the salads are my favorite, and the best burger on the menu is the Texas burger.

  • Jen L.

    As if this place needs another glowing review! When I first moved to Pittsburgh, a local clued me in to the wonders of D's. She leaned forward and whispered, "....yeah 'suchandsuchbar' is alright, but if you want the BEST beer selection in Pittsburgh with the friendliest staff, go to D's Six Pax and Dogz." She proceeded to give me directions. Mind you, this was a total stranger. But I liked the mystique so obviously I jumped in my car and found D's (her directions were perfect.) Walking into the beer cave is an almost religious experience. What's this to my immediate left? Seasonal brews? Yes, I'll definitely have some of those. Trippel Belgians? Count me in. Beers brewed by monks? Of course. All the Dogfish Head and Rogue a girl could ever want? Double check. Giant bottles of Chimay? I must be dreaming. And if you thought things couldn't get any better, you're clearly not following along close enough-you get $1.00 off every bottle you take to go. Bobby and I brought a friend here last night because he said he had never been. We stocked up on pumpkin beers and they even had Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin Ale which I can never seem to find anywhere. Our friend was in awe. The only downside I can possibly think of when it comes to D's is the magical time powers that seem to exist in the beer cave. I kid you not, I've sometimes found myself in the beer cave for over 45 minutes agonizing over crafting the perfect six pack. Of course, this isn't D's fault. I'm naturally indecisive. I love this place so good.

  • Brandon F.

    "Meh" is kind of how I felt about this place, which I realize is an opinion that seems to go against the grain. I had heard about D's time and time again. Everyone talked about it like it was the greatest place in existence. I had such high expectations! I suppose maybe I was expecting too much, which led to some disappointment. A few friends and I went here on a Friday night and it was (predictably) packed. We were fairly lucky to get a table almost right away. I obviously had to acknowledge that the beer selection is impressive. If you can't find it here, you probably can't find it anywhere in Pittsburgh. I had to check out the famous "Beer Cave" which seemed to have just about everything. I think I'll make it a point to pick up some brews here next time I'm looking for something unusual or new. I wish I had more to say, but I just wasn't feeling it. My friends love it so I'm sure I'll be back, and next time I'll make it a point to try the food. Judging by some of the other reviews, that might change my perception of the place.

  • Chris H.

    D's is pretty awesome. The name is D's Six Pax & Dogs for a reason- they have a huge beer cave and a billion different hotdog combinations. The beer cave has: seasonals, local brews, imports, etc and a blast chiller thing that will chill your beer for you in seconds/minutes (like super fast). There is a hot dog list with different topping combinations, in which you can choose the type of dog you want: veggie, brat, beef hotdog, turkey dog, and even kielbasa, and put that dog into a CHIHUAHUA ( avocado, shredded cheddar, salsa, and jalapeños) or an ANGRY TIKI (Pineapple, bacon, hoison, and Double Dip sauce) or another suggested topping combination. If the suggested dogs and topping combos don't float your boat you can choose whichever toppings you like from a giant toppings list. The service is usually pretty fast and the servers are friendly and good at their jobs. The only issue is that the place is often times busy, so occasionally you might have to wait a bit to get a seat.

    D's has been hovering among my Pittsburgh bookmarks for a couple of years now, so I was happy to finally stop by for a visit and late lunch recently. After squeezing into a parallel parking spot out front, I had two things on my mind when walking in here: hotdogs and beer, both of which they have down pat. Since it was mid-afternoon, few tables were filled, but the front patio was open to allow in some fresh air during the nice day. I first looked around at their extensive beer selections; "six pax" in the rear "Beer Cave" and individual bottles in the middle cooler. I found something to my liking and grabbed a high table and menu. A "Big Ben" dog sounded appetizing (and mildly appropriate), but I ended up going with the "Mason Dixon" topped with chili and coleslaw. Knowing that one dog would not be enough, I also went with a small order of their "Pub Fries" covered in cheese and bacon. (Forgive me Father, for I have no restraint.) Holy Moley! Both the dog and fries were excellent and down right tasty. Thank God because my satisfied stomach was smacking down the guilty part of my brain that was subconsciously calculating the summation of calories shared between the meal and two bottles of liquid refreshment. Oh well. I definitely heart D's, even if my heart now hates me in return. 4.5 Stars.

    A pleasant surprise! My friend and I came here after a failed attempt at the Braddock Food truck event at the Braddock Gentleman's Brewery (or whatever it's called). The menu has so many options! There was a 30 minute wait when we showed up at 8:30. That was discouraging at first but with all the options thirty minutes was no big deal. I got the Hawaiian Hot Dog (it's not called that, it's just the one with the pineapple and bacon). It was a pretty solid choice. I also got the macaroni and cheese. I was very happy that it was $3 but I guess you get what you pay for. It did taste like it was a box of Kraft Mac and cheese. So not really original or special but definitely classic. I also ordered a hard cider. It was on draft and $8.50. I thought that was pretty pricey for a draft beer, however it's probably one of the smoothest ciders that I've had, so it may have been worth it to some degree. All and all, it was a nice choice on the fly.

  • Amanda W.

    D's is the coolest. Their beer cave is truly a sight to behold. In this state of ridiculous liquor laws, it's a feat to have so many beer options in singles and make-yer-own six-paks. They have chilled choices (or a super-chiller if you want to cool something quickly) and non-chilled options. There are over 1000 varieties, and the awesome "Beer Manager" has the whole inventory all in his head! And he gives helpful recommendations. The food is good too. The wings are great, and the fries and chips are delish. I'm not a hot dog person so I can't comment on them, but the husband loves them. They're Chicago-style with Chicago-branded meat and buns. Authentic!

    When I go to heaven, they will have a Sephora with D's Six Pax's Beer Cave in the back. And I will be happy. I LOVE this place! I'd love to take my beer loving father here but i'm afraid his heart would give out with excitement. If its a good brew, it lives here! I FREAKING LOVE this place. Can you tell I'm enthusiastic about it? I recommend you dine here. The food is good, I like the black and blue burger, but they have just about any kind of hotdog combination you can dream up. I really love that you can walk back into the beer cave and pick out your beer, and they offer cool chillers for it. Here's the best hike in Pittsburgh: Hike in Frick Park. take the Falls Ravine trail until you come out near the bridge. Walk across the bridge. At Ryan's Pub, turn right and walk straight ofr awhile. You'll come to D's Six Pack and Dogs. You will be READY for a beer, bc its a hike. But that is the point of hiking. Eat delicious food and drink beer. Call a friend to come pick you up and take you home. The End. In fact, its a damn shame they dont offer a gift registry. Because I would register for beer. I would. No judgement.

    The beer cave is amazing, and you get $1 off each bottle if you take out... Which means that some of them end up being cheaper than if you bought a case! WOW. The food is really good. I have been here several times, and each time, I told the server to bring me something vegetarian. I have never been disappointed!! From hotdogs, to seitan, to nachos everything here tastes great and there are tons of options. The last time I was there we were having fun upstairs playing darts and racking up a tab. The bartender was nice enough to actually stop us and point out that it had started to snow, and we should probably leave before the roads got bad... I thought that was super sweet and nice of him!!

    I love D's! My roommate and I are happy regulars at both the restaurant and the attached beer cave, and we like to drag our out-of-town friends here as well. This place is honestly one of the best things about living in Regent Square. The staff are friendly and efficient and the food is always hot and fresh. The beer is of course outstanding. What more could you want in a neighborhood bar?

  • Gary R.

    This really is a great place. It's hard to find fault with anything here! Great owner, superb bar food, and oh, the huge selection of craft beer. And I'm not talking about the massive collection in the beer cave!! The commitment to have 5 or 6 local brews (Helltown included) on tap in a rotating "local" draft corner is music to my ears. Had Helltown's Reaper Harvest Ale last night and it was fabulous. I've had quite a few local brews here as well as a selection of other crafts. I love having exciting draft beer choices! The food is really good too! Wings, dogs, veggie dogs...these aren't just your typical ballpark quality dogs. Nah, these are amazing. The buns, the all beef dog with that welcome "snap" when you bite it...yum. Plus the selection of options will keep you coming back to try more and more. The daily specials are worth watching - the 10 wings for $5 on Monday is a bargain!! Since they don't serve cheapo food or beer, the price reflects that. 2 draft beers and 2 hotdogs is close to $25. But hey, enjoy it. The crowd is cool, the atmosphere is terrific, and the beer selection is among the best in the city. I'll keep coming back. For sure!

    Pleasantly surprised by the extent of the selection of beer here. Also -- I'm visiting from Seattle and they have Elysian on tap! Elysian Night Owl is the best pumpkin variety I have ever had in my life. Came here with my aunt Joanne and she really couldn't believe that as a beer enthusiast I had never been here. Try the Elysian!

    This place is an old favorite. I used to live close by and would swing by for good brew and some yummy dogs. At times when I was vegetarian, there was always something just as appetizing. I also love their pizzas, especially with the whole wheat crust, which is hard to come by elsewhere. These days, my husband and I make it a date to spend an afternoon in Regent Square and finish off with a good late lunch at D's. The beer selection is amazing.

    Went here today for the first time and I couldn't be more pleased with my experience. We sat downstairs in the dining area, on the same side where they keep all their beers. We were seated immediately and our server was quick to greet us. My boyfriend and I each ordered a draft beer. He had an IPA by Sierra Nevada and I had the Boulder Shake Chocolate Porter. Both were awesome and their draft list is decent. About 15-20 craft beers on tap. We each ordered a sandwich. Their menu wasn't large but they had more than just your typical bar food, definitely more interesting items. I got a chicken sandwich named the chihuahua--chicken, avocado, cheddar cheese, salsa and jalapeños. It was amazing! Their sandwiches automatically come with chips (which I'm never a fan of) but I was able to substitute them for French fries. Their fries were amazing, they were the kind that are battered and those are my favorite (very few places around the burgh sell them like that) so this was very exciting to me. Overall the price isn't bad either which was awesome. After dinner my boyfriend and I both go my 6 packs to go.. They have an awesome selection.. Over 1,000 beers in their beer room (all beers are warm) but they do also have a cooler which has less beers but still not a bad selection. I honestly couldn't be happier with my experience.

    As a former Regent Square resident and a current Point Breezer I can tell you that D's is a diamond in the rough. Want an excellent hotdog? How about a thousand beers to choose from? Want to mix and match some beer and take it home to enjoy later? Well, you've found the money ball. Your biggest challenge here is getting a good parking spot. But don't give in, you'll get a spot and you'll be happy you did. Don't like hotdogs you say? Well, they have delicious pizza too so whatever floats your boat you'll find it here.

  • Jeff M.

    The only place outside of Chicago that does a proper Chicago dog. I love their crispy fries. No matter how you order them, you won't be disappointed. Pub fries are our family favorite. Save yourself a few bucks and grab your own bottled beers from the beer cave. You aren't going to find a better selection of beers in the city. Sure some places might have a larger selection of beers on tap, but D's is the only place you will find 6 varieties of actual authentic French Saisons in season. Pizza is excellent and rivals any pizza only place in Pittsburgh. Super kid friendly is the icing on the cake.

    This place is pretty cool. Plenty of beer selections, including several gluten free options. I like to watch games here, and this is a good spot for larger parties (5+). The french fries are excellent and very crispy, even better with cheese and bacon.

    D's is always worth the trip, whether you're stopping by for some food or heading straight to the beer cave to build your own six pack. Maybe it attracts a certain kind of younger crowd, but it is truly a no-frills kind of place and the people working there could not be more friendly and accommodating. The first time I came here our server was super chill and chatty with us as well as patient while we took our time figuring out how many add-ons to pile on top of our food despite the busy atmosphere of the place. The food is cheap and hits the spot, for meat eaters and vegetarians alike. I will say their seitan wings were particularly crunchy/dry and not altogether satisfying shared between people, but the flavors were great. But let's be real, you're probably coming here for the dogs. It's cool, I do too. And you will probably want to add avocado to whatever it is you're getting, because avocado is for winners, just like the ocean. One night, during some seriously biblical amounts of rain and lightning, the power went out temporarily and workers and patrons alike kept on going like it was -no big deal-, demonstrating that the strength of D's can weather any storm.

    I've been trying to find new and different restaurants recently, and this is one I found: About the place: - It's small - It's packed and crowded. - Due it's size, they seats near the walls are all awkward and can't be comfortable. - I wouldn't recommend it for big parties unless you organized it with the place ahead of time. - There is free parking outside, but you are going to have trouble finding a space The food: - NOTHING COMES WITH THE HOT DOGS AND MEALS COME WITH CHIPS. The fries cost more to get as a side. Who ever heard of fries with your burger/dog? Um, apparently everyone except this place. - I got the chili cheese dog, the mac and cheese dog and the chili cheese fries. - The chili cheese fries are very very good and are some of the best I've had. If you like long fries with breading, you'll like these. The large size is indeed a large size and is enough for 2-3 people. - You get one hot dog, and with toppings on it, it will cost $6.50. I get two dogs with toppings at the local Sunoco for $2.22. I could also buy two packs of hot dogs and probably buns from a cheap place for $6.50, so it's not the cheapest. - The hot dog buns are good and have some green or black seeds on it. The hot dogs are just typical size and aren't super fat or foot longs. The staff: - They are overworked but they are nice. - One of the girls was cooking and had no hair cover, so I could easily see hair going in food. Hope they fix that. Suggestions for D's: - Please sell curly fries or pretzels! - Stop being cheap. Give fries with your burger/dog and GIVE ME A SIDE WITH MY DOG. - Try to get a bigger place - Lower the prices for hot dogs or give two hot dogs. They have to be making near $6 profit on a $6.50 dog. Would I go back? Definitely.

    D's is a typical bar food type of place. It's size makes it cozy and in general it has a nice, happy ambience. The food is nothing spectacular but not bad as well - even though the hot dogs are pretty good. It has a large selection of drafts and there is also a back "room" where you can buy pretty much any beer that exists either for taking it to your home or for having it with your dinner. The service was fast and helpful. I am sure I will be visiting this place again in the future but just do not expect something spectacular.

    D's is one of our favorite places in Pittsburgh. It's nice to have an easy, fun, casual place to get some good eats and a nice beer. As a vegetarian who still likes to pretend to eat meat, I so appreciate their multiple veggie options. Nearly any item on the menu can be made in a vegetarian version. Their special dogs (dog of the month) are usually a lot of fun. My favorite was the Thanksgiving dog back in November, with corn, mashed potatoes, cranberry, and stuffing. It was amazing! I came twice to have one in November. Their beer list has to be the best I've seen in the city. Lots of great stuff on tap and a huge bottle room. Since we like to bring our toddler to dine with us, I'm always so happy that they are so friendly and accommodating with kids. He loves their mac and cheese and grilled cheese sandwiches, though I think he likes their crayons more. For a fun family dinner, a good beer, watching a game, getting together with friends, or just experimenting with a new Belgian brew, I strongly recommend D's.

    I hadn't been to D's in years so when my friend and I took a hike through Frick Park and decided to stop by D's to grab some grub I was anxious to see if my memory of my past experience was on point years later. Well it was - great atmosphere, staff and food. I had the Chicago Hot Dog with a handful of fries. Perfect amount of food and I couldn't even finish the fries...and they were some goooood fries! I got my first pumpkin beer of the season from their beer cave and while I can't remember the brewery it was exactly what I wanted on a cool and crisp day after a hike. This is a great spot for some craft beers and bar type food.

    Last night was my first time at D's. The beer cave was amazing! I'm not a fan of beer but can appreciate a vast selection. I went straight for the cider. The lively energy of this place was incontestable. No frills, down-to-earth place where you can kick it back with a beer (or in my case a cider) and enjoy company with friends. It was a perfect ending to our movie night at the Regent Square Theater. With smiles planted on our faces after watching a dark comedy, going to D's only extended our happy mood. Before leaving I went back to the beer cave for more cider. Good stuff, good stuff!

    D'z is hands down my favorite go to spot for good eats. I love their wings and their hot dogs. Everytime I go there i am greeted with fun young employees ready to serve or offer suggestions about their latest brews. Their draft list changes constantly so there's no sense in trying to remember which beer you had there the week before. Plus their beer cave is great with hundreds of different bottles to choose from all listed by the region from which they came. They also have a small cooler with about 150 different varieties of beer that are already chilled for your liking. Even if you get a warm beer, they have this ice cold dunk tank to put your bottle in that gets it nice and chilly for you in just a few minutes. That by far is my favorite aspect of D'z. If you choose to take beer home with you they also have a discount of $1.00 per bottle of every beer you take with you(excluding the pre-made six packs). So sometimes we get a six pack of variety beers at a lower cost than paying for them individually. On to the food: I love their wings and hot dogs and my masterful veggie burger creation. We always order the BBQ sauce because it taste so gooooood and their wings are nice and crispy and hot and smothered in plenty of sauce that you will be licking your fingers. We've tried almost all their dogs expect 2 and my favorite is the mac and cheese dog(w/ ketchup) and the chihuahua dog which is avocado, shredded cheddar cheese and jalapenos, my fiance enjoys a classic Chicago dog. The have delicious sauerkraut that i enjoy as well so i usually get a side for only 99 cents. Can't beat that price. Now when it comes to the veggie burger i love the way it taste. I do it up real nice by getting that black n blue topping which is blue cheese and cajun seasoning. I add bacon, onion, mushrooms, avocado, tomato, lettuce and their spicy mayo/double dip sauce. It is hands down the best burger i've ordered in a loooong time. If your looking for a fun hangout spot for you and your buddies or even a tasty treat for the kids then D'z is where it's at!!! It gives you the feeling of just a fun place to be on the weekend or even the weekdays. Due to an unfortunate circumstance of eating at a different hotdog shop during restaurant week, my fiance would have proposed to me at D'z. We truly regret not waiting to go here but time was of the essence. D'z you truly are my favorite spot to be any day at any time and you will always be the place i wish i would have been proposed to at!!!!!!!!!!

    This place is great! As a vegan and not a huge fan of beer, I wasn't expecting much for me there from D's name...but the service, food, and atmosphere was all so, so good! I was excited to try their cauliflower wings, but it turned out that they have now switched over to seitan. Even so, the two different orders my friends and I shared were both very tasty, although very fried and crunchy, compared to the meatier seitan wings served up elsewhere in Pittsburgh. Their vegan dog on a poppy seed bun comes with unlimited toppings, for just 4.99! They somehow managed to get avocado, grilled onions, tomato, pickle spears, brown mustard, and banana peppers stacked into mine, and it was delicious and filling. I'd love to see a homemade vegan dog instead of using Yve's, but the toppings deal makes it worth it! Definitely will be back for more :)

    I think I have spent more money at D's than anywhere else in my entire life and I am ok with that. Great atmosphere, staff, food, and beer. The best is at Patrick's day breakfast...or any other time you chose to patron the establishment.

    This place is a must try. I would say it's a bar you can bring your kids to if you have any. The service is great the food is better. Me and my girlfriend got pub fires with cheese and bacon to share. I got the Angry tiki and Chili dog she got the Pot roast and Big Ben all on beef franks. The food came out in no time and with a bill of only 35$ including a beer it was a great price. They also have a massive beer cave in the back. Next time I stop in here I have to bring a group of friends so we can all try one another's food.

    The place is kind of small and disjointed a bit but they make up for it with their beer selection and great staff. The food is mostly bar food with a twist, offering cool toppings for regular sandwiches and burgers. The pizza was pretty good, and the bar area had plenty of tv's but lacked seating. The worst part honestly was a group of fellow patrons who couldn't get a seat at the bar so they stood in a corner and ruined my experience. Unfortunately, the bar kept serving them alcohol because they were highly beligerant, loud and shouting things deragotory about gays and mocking to kiss trying to get a reaction out of other patrons who happened to be gay. Pretty sad there were bigoted a-holes who ruined an overall good experience. However, I won't let them bring the place down as a whole, and the quick service and good selections allow me to give it 4 stars.

    very good pittsburgh food! get the big ben dog or the big ben burger and add a side of chili cheese fries to share with the table. Do not go while on any type of healthy eating plan. There's a big menu and everything is unhealthy and delicious. Not overly greasy or salty though. I have never personally checked out there beer selection but it is certainly plentiful. Service is usually quick and friendly. Very nice when the weather is good and the garage door in front is open. Otherwise it is a bit dark and dingy.

  • Anne C.

    As the name suggests, they serve primarily hot dogs and beer. But wait - it's not just any hot dog! They have quirky names on different dogs with even more eclectic toppings. I also got their fries and don't regret a thing. They have the best fries in Regent Square, hands down. I'm tempted not to say which dog to get because I feel that the decision would weigh too heavily on whether or not I have a palette for dogs. Nonetheless, you can't go wrong (I got the Big Ben). Also a great bonus - you can grab your own beer from the beer cave in the back and chill out.

    When owners name a restaurant like this take the hint! They didn't name this place Six Pax & Hummus! Come here for beer and dogs. There are other things on the menu but the stars of the show are in the name. So let's talk dogs first. Each one is going to cost you $4-$5 and they are large, delicious and messy. You definitely want to be among friends when you eat one of these bad boys and have plenty of napkins. If you are only eating dogs, many folks order two. Every topping imaginable is available. Another popular choice is one dog and excellent fries. Add a craft beer or two and you have one heck of a fine casual meal. Speaking of craft beers, the selection here is excellent. I appreciate that the names are up on an easy to read board that includes the ABV%. If you are new to craft beers, many of them are very strong. Let's say you normally drink three or four Coors Lights and now you are discovering the pleasure of Delirium Noel. It's a 10% beer and if you drink three or four you are in for a big surprise! In the interest of safe driving for everyone, be aware of the ABV%. So the food is great and the beer is excellent and I've found the service to also be right on. These folks are extremely popular so at peak times it's mobbed. Do yourself a favor and show up off peak and you'll eat and drink much more quickly.

  • Marni K.

    While I'm not much of a beer fan, I appreciate that this place would appeal to both the beer snob and the casual drinker. Enormous selection of beers in the Cave as well as on tap. They have Arsenal Cider, which makes me very happy (although I wish they carried the Bone-Dry). The hot dogs and fries are amazing. I had an Angry Tiki. It sounded like an odd combination - pineapple, hoisin sauce, and bacon on a hot dog - but it was delicious. The only thing I might change next time is asking for a side of Sriracha (would have put this hot dog over the top). It's cheap, it's a good set-up for going with a group, and I will definitely take any of my beer-loving friends here.

    If you're like me, you probably enjoy watching people eat hot dogs and will want to make D's a destination when hanging in the 'burgh. What? I can't be the only one. Seriously? Fine. Then excuuuUUUuuuse me. I'll rephrase for the supposed masses. If you enjoy eating hot dogs, you'll want to make D's a destination when hanging in the 'burgh. It's a great place to go and get some tubed meat in a variety of different mix and match combinations and also a great place to meet new people... perhaps you'll even meet someone who shares your love of you eating hot dogs and you can shower them with many moments of which they can watch you eat your beloved wieners and y'all can live happily ever after. No? Ugh, fine. Then just eat the damn hot dog all by your lonesome. See if I care. I came in with a group of friends for a semi-liquid lunch and though it was the beer cave that brought us in, I was secretly more excited about watching my friends eat hot dogs. You see, I'd been feeling super sick for the entire duration on my Pittsburgh road trip. I think it was a bad Cholera strain. Anyway, my party of six allowed me to sleep in extra late while they wandered around some graveyard by our hotel with scones until I was all puked out and ready see what the light of day looks like. I was feeling bummed that I had to hibernate through my original morning plan of going to the zoo, but the thought getting to see my pals suck down chili dogs all Jack & Diane style really helped lift my spirits. We walked in, sat down and I was immediately excited to be sitting across from their epic celebrity mural. It's like a pop-culture/history 'Where's Waldo', only there's no Waldo, and instead Gandalf, Wolverine, John Candy, and more. I spent the entire time between ordering and the food coming out staring at the wall and finding new peeps. My only gripe on the artwork is that the mural was seriously lacking in Bill Murray biz-nasty, so for that I have to subtract a star. Okay, no. I'm only (half) joking about the star thing. I'm actually deducting the star because their veggie dog was pretty damn terrible. I mean, the toppings (I got the chihuahua with cheese and jalapenos) were fine, but I think I've microwaved dogs that tasted better than theirs. It was so freaking rubbery and tough and chewy... like bad calamari or trying to chew a whole pack of rock hard Bazooka Joe at once. My jaw was tired from trying to force my tearing teeth into that little soy sausage but the worst part is that I had to devote so much extra time to eating my stupid wiener that I missed being able to watch my friends eat their hot dogs. Boo-urns. Next time, I'll skip the veggie dog and go with a wrap or pizza or burger or something that'll allow for more wiener-peeping. On the other hand, the veggie pub fries were damn good and something I resented having to offer to share them with my friends... but I did offer because I felt like it would detract from them getting 'weirded out' at my wanting to gawk at them like I bought a ticket to watch them eat hot dogs... even though that wishful thought didn't pan out anyway thanks to the lackluster veg-dog I ended up with. Their beer selection was stellar and their beer cave in back was a fun shopping experience and great place to find a few rarities. They actually had the Rogue Voodoo Doughnut bombers that you can hardly ever find. Unfortunately, my sickness impaired me from imbibing and I actually spent the latter half of the time there barfing in the bathroom (not to the fault of D's) while my friends shopped for a bevy of beer in the cave. Also worth mentioning is how friendly everyone here was. Lots of helpful staff members and even the other ladies in the bathroom who were concerned with my hurling to the point where they wouldn't leave me alone and I had to lie and say that it was no big deal, I was in my first trimester and the morning sickness was getting the best of me. Very nice people those Pittsburgh folk are.

    A crowded, yet cozy place to get a great dog. The beer cave is impressive, and the rotating drafts have something for everyone. I had the pulled pork dog which had just the right amount of hot dog, pulled pork, and sauerkraut. The fries were well fried and not oily or overly crispy. The bar area was well kept and clean, and I enjoyed the first dog so much I had to get another. If you can find a spot to sit, you won't be disappointed.

    My three stars are for the decor, wow so much to see! There was a giant mural on the wall to the left of our table with just about every iconic figure from Kermit the Frog, to Einstein really it was a sight to see. My little sister, little bro and I had a blast playing where's Waldo, while we waited for our order's to be taken. The decor and wall murals were about the most interesting thing about our dining experience. For a meal for 3 people I spent $50 ouch that's a little high for a hotdog shop and something I wasn't expecting such a high bill. The kiddies did enjoy their meals, we got cheese and chili fries, a mason Dixon dog, a red alert dog, two beef dogs with mustard and ketchup, two drafts of pumpkin ale(for me) and a Philly cheese steak. The dogs are bigger than average, but the chili tasted like your standard chili from a can, I was hoping that with the price tag of $5.00 a dog the chili would have more character. My little bro proclaimed at the end of his meal, "I'm full, I've never been full off of two hotdogs!" I'll do anything to put a smile on kids face, even though the food fell flat, the restaurant was fun and we smiled laughed and jokes through a rather mediocre meal.

    I thought D's was beer mecca of Western PA until i recently discovered House Of A Thousand Beers. The latter is a bit of a drive, but you won't see anything like it in the area. That being said, I stopped in Ds today and i must say the cave is slowly but surely going down hill. They use to have countless hard to find beers, Ottos, etc. Hardly saw any of that today. And what specialty beers they do have costs an arm and a leg, and can be found for cheaper elsewhere. For example, $14 for a 12 oz bottle of Wulver and $25 for a bottle of Angel Share! Whoever is actually subjecting themselves to those outrageous prices are literally getting robbed. You can find a $25 four pack of Wulver and a $10 single of Angel Share at Giant Eagle.. In fact, you can find most of the beers in the cave at Giant Eagle at a much lower price... Shop smart and mix and match a sixer at Giant Eagle for half the price.

    The food is always sort of room temperature, but it's delicious! There's a cave. Of beer. There's always a longish wait to get a seat, but I can say, they do their best to accommodate. My first time here, we had a large group and failed to call ahead, yet they found somewhere to put us and took good care. This area of town is adorable, and I'm looking forward to heading out in the spring time and enjoying some hot dogs in the warm air!

  • Liz E.

    Over-hyped food, rude service, don't care about their customers. What happens when the owner values money over "being there" to oversee the business. I'm a local and have been going to D's since they opened...but that doesn't matter any more....with the exception of Eli, the bartenders are generally rude. Food is sub-par...seems the busier they are, the worse the food is. What a shame. It used to be my "go to" place in the 'Square, where I would take out-of -towners or go after a mountain bike ride in Frick. Despite the numbers of great beers, I can't justify giving my money to a place that doesn't care about their customers.

    I wanted to scout out Regent Square as I'm fairly new to the area and it was recomended by someone who lives there and really talked it up. So, I parked and started walking, looking for a lunch spot. I spied D's Sixpax & Dogz I think because of it's open air concept. the tables weren't outside but inside next to the window and I noticed there was no glass on said window. Yay! Let's head inside to nosh and get a nice breeze. It has a nice atmosphere -- a nice bar pub and enough people dining to get the feeling it's a happening place. I have the feeling dogs are the popular item based on the name of the place but I'm really not a hotdog fan except at sporting events so I opted for the Black 'n Blue Burger smothered with bleu cheese and cajun seasoning. It comes with homestyle chips and I added an order of coleslaw. Wonderful burger -- big, moist and tasty! Definitely hit the spot (multiple spots, actually). Very satisfying lunch. Side bonus for me -- happened to hear music from a local band from Denver (former homestead) while dining. Made me homesick.

  • Allison B.

    I absolutely love D's with all of my heart. If you're looking for a plain dog and fries (boring) they have what you want. If you're looking for a Mac n cheese dog or one with bacon and pineapple with sriracha and a side of chili cheese fries, they've got you covered too. Add in an enormous draft selection, a beer cave 1000 beers deep, and just the right game always on, and you've got my choice for a Saturday evening. Not to mention pizza for days, innovative burgers that'll blow your socks off, and CORNDOGS. Just go here be happy.

  • Anneke S.

    Yum! I think Ive been here three times since moving to PGH, Fav dogs: Chihuahua , Brat, and Chicago style dog. Never tried other entrees but their fries are nice and crispy. They have plenty of Belgian beers to choose from a bonus in my beer book. Beers: usually a good variety on tap plus tons of variety if you need to one stop shop and pick some six packs up in the back. Warning though if it is a busy summer evening you can wait up to one hour for your dog I think this is because they have tiny kitchen behind the bar. So if you're super hungry go early or later or fill up on their beer first. Also this doesn't really bother me i still ate my food but the guy cooking the food didn't wear gloves and did touch the food with his bare hands often. If you're OCD maybe just get a beer or don't sit at the bar where you can see this. Don't worry he didn't pick anything up off the floor and put it back on plates, i checked. :)

  • Bill T.

    It was either Mother Theresa or the Baha Men who said "Who let the dogs out?" and I must say, I was glad someone let my bacon cheddar dog out of the kitchen and into my stomach. Dee-licious! Stopped in here before seeing a movie at the Regent Square Theater for some beers, dogs and chili cheese fries. I had two IPAs that were good and reasonably priced. I couldn't finish the fries so I took them with me to the movie theater and the lady didn't mind that I brought them in. I finished them fairly quickly once the movie started (I was seeing the Swedish version of "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" so this was a while ago.) Also, since I was just visiting town, I didn't have a car and I rode the bus there all the way by myself! So the point is, you can eat here and get a great dog and good beer, and you can also take the bus here and then see a movie.

    There's no wrong way to eat a hot dog. Especially if it's topped with cheese, fries and coleslaw. Imagine if you will me sitting there and a myriad of punctuation marks pop up over my head as if I were in a cartoon. My puzzlement showing because I have no sure shot way of how to accomplish eating this masterfully prepared awesomeness just sat down in front of me. Or maybe it was because I wasn't sure I wanted to attack my Big Ben first or the pub fries I decided to order on the side. My mind was buzzing...or maybe that could have been the raspberry ale I chosen from the beer cave prior to me sitting down. To say this hot dog is good is an insult to D's. You better be prepared to say this hot dog is delicious, out of this world, life altering.......and maybe even orgasmic :O The mixture of the poppy seed bun, coleslaw, fries, cheese, and beefy goodness....heaven. Pub fries, pub fries, oi, Oi, OI! Some of the best fried up taters I've ever had. And to put some cheesy goodness on there was amazing. But the best part was the cooked oh so right bacon that kind of melted in your mouth. Sounds salty, no? That's what the ranch is for. I have no idea why I waited so long to try this place out, I should be shunned for this. If you are to shun me, shun me back to the beer cave, there are still several other beers I would love to try. The wait staff kind of remind you of worker bees. Always in motion, always doing something, and very attentive. In all honesty, I really wish I could give this place more than five stars.

    Love this place! Not only do they have a wonderful beer selection, they have great veggie dogs! Make sure you visit the "beer cave". My beer-enthusiast friends from the DC area visit D's with every visit to the Burgh. If they are busy, make sure your name gets put on the list after speaking with the front counter or you may be sitting there for some time.

  • Jen M.

    This is clearly not a place to come for a healthful salad. As long as you can accept that and are in the mood for junk food concoctions taken to a new level (aka fried fries (yes they're double fried and extra crispy) topped with "pub cheese" and bacon and dipped in ranch) or one of their many "unique" dog toppings (such as the special Carolina Dog that was topped with pulled pork and coleslaw.) This is also one of the few places where any beer snob will feel happy and non-beer snobs can also enjoy a nice bottle of Lindeman's or the likes. The place is especially bumpin' during sporting events, so either come early or be prepared to wait for a table if the big game is going on.

  • Tessa M.

    i really like this place and if i were in squirrel hill more often, i'd definitely visit more. there is only one reason i gave it 4 instead of 5 stars, but i'll get to that in a minute. the first i had heard of d's was their six pack shop. they have a large selection of room-temp, cold, domestic, craft, import, normal-size, giant bottles that you can make your own 6 pack with. this was the first place i had ever been to with those kind of options, but now i realize (here's why one star is taken off) the prices for 6 packs are not nearly as wonderful as the selection. now, obviously, with mixed bottles, the price will go up, especially if you have expensive kinds in there. but it seems they charge full price per bottle, which is a pretty lousy deal in the end. but prices for eat/drink-in are totally acceptable! in fact, i don't believe i had ever eaten at d's until a recent yelp event. their hot dogz are FANTASTIC and i only had a beef dog with sauerkraut, not exactly anything fancy. i also got to sample their hummus and dry-rub bbq wings, both of which were also super tasty. the service is always really friendly here too. there's plenty of room to sit down (bar, table, "loft" upstairs with a bar and a few tables). and there's even darts upstairs, too. d's is definitely worth checking out and if you've never seen the 6-pack "cave", at least take a browse, buy one if you're feeling spendy or simply don't have a place like this anywhere near you.

    I absolutely loved this place. First off, I love Regent Square. It's the cutest place, and this is the perfect place for a night out or even to get beer for a night in. My boyfriend is obsessed with the create your own six pack from the beer cave. We ate here on a friday and the place was packed but we got sat right away and our food came out fast. Amazing specialty hummus of the day ( i think it was chipotle ranch) and great sandwiches. The portions are huge and you won't leave hungry.

    Any place that has a walk-in fridge full of beer gets my vote. Go visit the beer cave! D's is one of those places I need to go to every time I'm back in town visiting family. I usually go for a burger or wings (seriously I need to find good wings in LA...) and beer. The food is always tasty and the service is excellent. Regent Square is a really cute little area that has a ton of great bars and restaurants. Highly recommended.

    D's is named perfectly. They have great hot dogs, loaded with all kinds of fun toppings. They have a beer cave, filled with beers from all over the world. They also have delicious pizza and fries. So if you are in the mood for bar food, this is the place for you!!

    Sometimes the service here is hit or miss...they can get pretty busy. It can also get pretty crowded. But the food is good and the atmosphere is fun and laid back. And can you beat a room filled with beer? Can you beat mix and match six packs? Nope. 35 cent wing night, yum. Crazy deep fried, bacon covered hot dogs, yum. I will say though that I could not go here while I was pregnant...you can smell the delicious beer in the air and the Beer Cave taunted me mercilessly with that which I could not indulge...sigh. That was a tough nine months. Things I don't like so much...tables too close together and too small. The macaroni and cheese is bland, although you can't ask much for two bucks. There is nothing on their website right now other than the menu. Servers can be a bit brusque or forgetful and not refill your drinks without asking, but it kind of goes with the atmosphere I suppose. All in all as a Regent Square resident this is our go-to place to hang out and bring friends and visitors.

    Beer and Dogs. This isn't your ballgame 7 dollar Miller Lite and generic hotdog either. This is 7 dollar Chimay and a loaded Chicago style dog heaven. A lengthy review of a place that relies entirely on beer and hot dogs would be redundant, so I'll keep this short. Great atmosphere, Decent enough staff, Fair prices, BEST beer list anywhere I've ever been! If they don't have something you want on draft chances are you can find it in their beer cave. And the hot dogs and fries are always atop the City's Best. If that isn't enough to get you stop by D's then you're missing the point and probably shouldn't anyhow.

    Wonderful place for a great casual meal! Their Beer Cave and excellent make your own 6-pack/draft beer selection are well known. As someone who was not able to drink I was equally impressed by their delicious rootbeer also on draft. We had the Vegetarian Pub Fries to start, which was a large helping of french fries smothered in cheese and avocado with a side of ranch. I had the Chihuahua hot dog with a veggie hot dog and added grilled onions and my partner had a specialty Octoberfest hot dog. Both were large and delicious. We did not have to wait long for a Friday night and the service was excellent. The space tends to be crowded so this is not the place to go for a quiet fancy dinner, but the food and drinks were excellent and we will definitely be back.

    This is a beer lover's dream and one of my favorite spots in Regent Square. Great place to go to watch a game. It is also kid friendly as almost every time I am visiting this place there are families with young children enjoying themselves. The biggest decision is to pick a beer off the draft list which always has a great selection or pick one from in the beer cave. I usually try a draft and then head into the chilled beer cave. There is also a larger section of single beers for purchase in the back that are not cold. If you want to drink them while at the restaurant they have a chiller-so cool!! My past visit I was impressed by the large selection of pumpkin beers. I tried a bottle called Baked by Lancaster Brewing-tastes just like pumpkin pie!! To go with it I ventured from my usual Chicago dog and ordered the Angry Tikki-pineapple, bacon and special cheesy, sweet and spicy combo mixture of sauce. I was not disappointed and a great choice. The poppy seed buns they serve the dogs on are the best!

    What is there to say about D's that has not been said? It's a fixture. The food is remarkably good for pub food and the beer cave is a fun "thing". The waitstaff are usually very good and parking in regent square isn't hard to find. I also have found the bathrooms pretty damn clean for a bar whenever I need to pee. I hope D's is with us for decades to come.

    Great hot dogs. Great beers on tap. I always fill up on way too much beer and way too much food when I'm here because it's all so good. I would recommend anything on the menu. And who wouldn't love the Beer Cave? They have an amazing selection of beers to go. It can sometimes be overwhelming. But I like having so many choices. The wait staff is always friendly and helpful. Check it out!

    Was in town for a recent sporting event and read good things about Ds. A bit off the beaten path, but an easy bus ride from my Oakland hotel (and bus originates from Downtown, so should be easy ride from there, too). Ds did not disappoint: creative craft beer list of 25+ taps, plus hundreds of bottles in the Beer Cave that you can have onsite or take to-go, and some of the best dogs I've ever had. Was there on a Friday, so got the Scorpion (cheddar jalapeno kielbasi) & fries deal for $5.50--excellent. Also tried the very good Ds Brat (cheesy bratwurst) & fries (same price), and they do a terrific version of the Chicago Dog. There are also 20+ toppings options if you want to DIY. Nice, friendly service from the guys behind the bar/in the kitchen made this a fine time. Next time I'm in PGH, Ds will be at the top of my list to visit. Can't wait to try their other dogs and whatever they have on tap (or in the Cave). P.S. There is also sit-down service in a room between the bar and Cave that seemed more family-friendly. I noticed several tables had pizzas and burgers, so I assume those are decent, too.

    I love this place. My fiance and I moved to the Regent Square area in May and we've been to D's multiple times in the three or so months since. The food is good--fairly typical bar fare--but it's the beer that keeps bringing us back. Their selection is huge (see: beer cave) and I've had some amazing beers that I didn't know even existed. The employees really know their stuff and will help you pick a beer if you don't know what you want. My fiancee is not a huge beer fan but the bartenders/waitstaff have been successful in finding him something he likes. They also have at least three gluten-free beers for those with gluten sensitivities. The atmosphere is not too loud or crazy and is a nice place to go if you want to be able to hear your companions. The sad part is that D's closes fairly early--the bar closes at 11 on Sunday-Wednesday and midnight on Thursday-Saturday. The kitchen closes an hour before the bar.

    Best beer selection in Pittsburgh, great hot dogs, pizza, veggie burger. Pub fries are actually worth the 100,000 calories. Great place to watch sports. Super friendly, knowledgeable service. Part of why Regent Square is so great.

    Go to the Beer Cave! For me to give a five star review, I have to walk out of the place saying, "That place is really cool." I had a bottled microbrew, a chili coleslaw hot dog, and a side of fries for under $10. It was really good.

    D's famous, expansive Beer Cave brought us here by necessity being that Kay and I were throwing a housewarming party the next day and required some alcohol for our guests. We didn't walk out with any booze thanks to an honest employee who directed us to a cheaper beer distributor down the street, but dine on some fabulous franks we did. Hey, we had enough cooking to do in the morning, and since D's serves food... Resisting the urge to destroy burgers wherever I see them listed, I opted to take on a duo of dogs as did Kay: A Chicago and a Bacon Cheddar. Kay stayed true to her Southern roots and went for a Mason Dixon (a slaw 'n chili dawg) and a Mac 'n Cheese (yup its on there), neither of which I got to try. The Chicago is just that; relish, onions, pickles, tomatoes, sport peppers, yellow mustard, and celery salt on my choice of a Vienna All-Beef frank, all of it contained in a mattress of a poppyseed bun. If THIS was an "authentic" Chi-town style hot dog, then Chicagoans are more blessed than they know. What I couldn't fathom was not only how the folks in the kitchen got all of the components inside a bun but also how they did it in such a picturesque manner. It was so aesthetic, I was afraid to munch on it. From there, I got down 'n dirty with the Bacon and Cheddar and found that the molten orange goo almost usurped the beefy, salty flavors of the grade-A proteins, taking the bread with it down to the bottom of a sea of cheese Primus would avoid. Coming back to Chicago from Yuba City (I kid my uncle's hometown), I found that this regional take came off more like a sandwich, transcending its genre so to speak. Fresh tomato cuts stood where ketchup should not. Sport peppers livened up the affair like GG Allin. A literally neon-green freakshow of a relish acted as a feather boa as well as a sugared counterweight to the briny proceedings. Dill pickles added more sass and bite as well as chill, and the yellow mustard/onion tandem had a bit to say about tradition. Archetypal, the majestic franks within each sheath of bread, but particularly the Chicago, were mountains above ballpark or arena fare. The flavors of slain, ground, smoked, grilled bovine were ALL you tasted upon breakage of the natural casings, and no amount of topping could smother or deny them. Note that I said the cheddar on the former dog was ALMOST overwhelmed. Not even Cheeze Whiz can kill wieners (stop...snarking...stop it!) like these. A "handful," as D's calls it, of french fries were beer-battered and superlative in every crisped, aurulent way frites can, should, and must be. The BBQ wings had a sauce that was stickysweet like a certain Def Leppard hit and fell apart in our hands and in our mouths. Come, come ye wing fanatics. Another valid reason for D's to be is its energetic, far from obnoxious, live-and-let-live atmosphere that few places can match let alone top. People we absolutely did not know came up to us, asking us how we liked the food, if we had been to D's before, how our night was going, and etcetera, glorious etcetera. We dined underneath a whimsical painted mural full of famous people and fictional characters. While awaiting our meal, we spotted Ozzy Osbourne, Alice Cooper, Spider-Man, Bill Cardille, Richard Pryor, Bruno Sammartino, Captain America, and we'll leave it at that so as not to spoil your time-killing, conversation-making fun. Regent Square is fortunate to have D's. Come on a Friday night, grab a seat, have a frank, sip a cold beverage, and allow your weekday worries to disappear.

    Generally, I like D's I. The restaurant itself has a cozy feel to it, and their large beer cave is one of the few places where I can get some of my favorite import beer. Note, the Czechs make more than just Pilsner Urquell. Je to pravda! Most of the staff are very friendly, and the managers are always quick to help if you need assistance. Some of you may get angry with me, but I simply cannot review D's I without comparatively rating it against its sister restaurant, D's II in Monroeville. And no, I couldn't possibly care less that the latter is in an old Pizza Hut. That's right, I prefer D's II to D's I. Hear me out. First of all, D's I' drafts are all about a dollar more expensive than those in the suburbs. Why the upcharge? Also, after being spoiled by the very large menu selection at D's II, I'm always a little disappointed when dining at Regent Square. No wraps, no steak salad, no variety of sandwiches. I will say that the food they do serve is good. I enjoy their pizza and their daily hummus offering. D's I has a much smaller draft selection and lacks a full bar. Fine. It's a smaller location and it stays true to its original "beer bar" theme. Sometimes, however, I like to mix it up. And I can do that more easily at the Monroeville location. Obviously, I's beer cave trumps II's beer... um... outcove? So all of that warrants a four-star rating. Why the three? Like its suburban counterpart, I'm docking a star for closing so early. Even when there is a crowd, the staff closes at 11:00 (Su-W) or 12:00 (Th-Sat) on the DOT. That's just not responding to demand! Overall, I don't dislike D's I. Quite the contrary. After all, three stars means "A-OK." But to me, D's Regent Square doesn't go beyond that.

    Any bar and/or restaurant that has "D's Nutz" on their menu is great-grand-wonderful in my opinion. Let's start with the beer. Say hello to barley-pop heaven here folks. Over 1,000 different types of brews? Holy--I thought I blacked out for a second. You take a stroll into either a walk-in cooler or a backroom lined with every beer under the sun, pick what you want and toss it into the complimentary cooler. This nifty little guy chills your bottle to whatever your desired temp is, fast! We're talking like 3-5 minutes. If it were just for the insanely intricate brew selection, D's would be a 5'er star, period. Now, let's move on to some serious dog biz-nas. This place was recommended to me from a frank-lovin' Pittsburgh-ite as the best place in town to grab one. Welp, I ordered my very first Chicago-style hotdog and was not disappointed. In fact, holy-fantastic-hot-peppers! The toppings were all so delish and blended perfectly with the dog. It was cooked just right on the outside, inside and served up with a freshly steamed bun. Yum. We also skipped the fries and enjoyed a baked, soft pretzel instead. This thing was fluffy, chewy and delectable. The only thing I would ask for more of is maybe a heftier frank. Don't get me wrong--everything was beyond delicious. I just noticed there wasn't much meatiness involved, and with all those topping options you want the hot dog to stand out too. Besides that, the atmosphere, help and general vibe of this little joint was spot-on. If you're in the 'Burgh, you must stop by D's. Seriously.

    D's does the chicago style hot dog very well, they even use sport peppers which I can never find in the grocery store. The bun is steamed and features the quintessential poppy seed exterior. D's beer selection is also great but I'm not much of a beer drinker so it's not something I've ever focused on. The general consensus I've heard is that there is better selection elsewhere and the prices are a little high but you can't beat both their hot dogs and their beer selection at the same time, making them a great bar. Their fries are so crispy that I suspect they're double fried. They're tasty and the toppings available can turn them into a bastard concoction of delicious, artery clogging glory. There's been nothing on D's menu that I've been disappointed with. The service can be a little hit or miss due mostly to the sheer amount of business they do on a Friday or Saturday night.

    UPDATE: July 2013 Went back for a visit to the alma mater and decided to stop in at D's before heading out. I have updates on the gluten-free beer situation and the nacho situation. GF Beer: MUCH improved from what I remember. They had at least three varieties of the "deglutenized" beers - Estrella Damm Daura and both the Amber and Blonde Brunehaut (from Belgium!). They MAY have had Omission as well. They also have at least three varieties of New Planet, and at least two of Greens. Dogfish Head T'weasonale. Possibly New Grist and Tread Lightly? I was in a haze of deliciously non-gluteny beer at this point. Nachos: Maybe I'm recalling incorrectly, but I think when I've had these in the past they are made with real cheese - you know, shredded and melted. This time they were served with that nasty-ass liquid cheese goop, like you get at a ballpark. Blegh. Still four stars overall! Avoid the nachos though. --- The only food I've ever had here is nachos, so I can't speak to that. I WILL speak to the beer selection, though! I've managed to collect quite an assortment of beer snob friends, who love spending hours (literally) in the Cave o' Beer. I have to eat gluten free, so most ordinary beers are off-limits for me, BUT, they have an enormous selection of hard cider! Many many different kinds, including my favorite cider in the whole world, JK Scrumpy. Totally reasonable prices, too. Now the bad: 1. They close at midnight! After the downstairs closes you can take your drink upstairs to a little bar, but it's super loud, has no seating, and you don't have access to the magical treasure trove of beer. Boooo. 2. This is totally a niche thing, but I wish they had a better selection of gluten-free beers. There are lots of tasty ones out there, but they often only have Bards and Redbridge.

    I'm a vegetarian and everything, but man, sometimes all you want is a hot dog. And you can get this at D's. Every hot dog or hamburger on their menu can be ordered vegetarian, which is both awesome and rare. I ordered the Chihuahua (with avocado, cheddar cheese, salsa, and jalapenos) and my table split an order of fries. SO GOOD. Almost too good. And you have to take a stroll around the beer cave. It's not quite as impressive as I was hoping, but definitely worth the splurge to make your own 6-pack. Last time I was in, I was able to purchase a 6-pack of porters - Anchor, Road Dog, Saranac caramel, Duck-Rabbit, Old Leghumper, and something else I can't remember - for a friend. I'll definitely go back.

    A day after the St. Patty's day libations the only thing I'm craving is some greasy junk food. Regent square hits the spot with some chili cheese fries straight from D's. Normally I enjoy fishing around the plentiful selection of booze. A hair of the dog was not gonna happen that hangover Sunday. I stuck to shoveling high calorie food into my gullet instead. The last time I was here I selected from the hot dog menu, and they weren't that great. How can you mess up a frank you may be wondering? I can only guess that it's the dogs themselves or the way they are prepared. They're kinda chewy. Dormont dogs rallies but the best Dog I've had was at Dirty Franks in Cbus OH. The chili cheese fries are good though. So today I made sure to get my fries fix in and try a burger. This weekend I had burgers on the brain! My BF and I got the Balboa, the BBQ Texas, and two dogs, mac n' cheese and Mason Dixon with with cheese. The burgers had really delish toppings but the meat was so dry. It was overcooked and did not have one bit of juicyness dripping down my hand. Missing that major component they were truly lackluster. The macaroni dog wasn't that great either. Mac n' cheese should be creamy, salty, buttery. So sorry but this weenie came up flat too. I did like the Mason Dixon! The crunchy-ness of the coleslaw made a huge difference but the meat was still chewy and too salty. Could it be that I am too picky when it comes to my meat? If I am shopping for picnic eats I do go for Smith hot dogs WITH the casing or the large sized Hebrew Nationals. Now those are the mouthwatering crowd pleasers I'm talkin' about!

    I got some cheesy bacon fries and a corn dog, and although my meal was quite scrumptious and satisfying, I kind of feel that this place is overpriced when compared to a lot of other similar places that I have been to (Happy Dog in Cleveland, Dirty Franks in Columbus, Packs and Dogs in Mt Washington, etc). I loved my Arsenal Cider House Fighting Elleck that they had (which I have to say had us venture over to Larryville and go get a few growlers for home). The service is great, love the laid back vibe. Only reason no 5 stars, is the overall cost when compared to similar places.

    Great place for grabbing quick eats with an excellent beer selection. Their "Beer Cave" is awesome if you enjoy creating custom six packs. There also is a nice bottle chiller, so you can enjoy a cold one while the others chill. Higher than average prices. Nice neighborhood (Regent Square).

    Though you may hear this comment about many places in Pittsburgh, D's Sixpax & Dogz is a bit of an institution. This place used to be a tiny closet-like neighbour bar. It has expanded in the past couple years, moved the beer around and now they keep most bottles in a walk in beer cooler. They also have a rotating selection of draft beers. They still have a beer cave in the back. The beer selection is quite good. The service can be both good and bad, depending on the server you get. The place is very relaxed. The food isn't particularly memorable. I enjoy the fish sandwih. Fries are good. It's great for groups. It can get quite busy.

    One of my favorites because it's so convenient, and there's an awful lot to like. My favorite dishes are the Big Ben Hot Dog or the Balboa Chicken Sandwich, and the beer selection is fantastic. We've also started to get our pizzas here, and they're quite good.

    Love the BEER CAVE - would make any beer-neanderthal happy! Sorta like grabbing a cold one out of your friend's fridge, except D's has a giant selection. The servers were pretty friendly, even when it was last call. I can't say the food was so great, but the beer options and good prices help to make up for it. This seems like an easy-going neighborhood bar, and I bet it's even nicer when the garage door window is open during the warmer months.

  • Geoff L.

    This place is fantastic. A robust selection of beers on tap, and literally a thousand different beers in bottles - this place is half bar/restaurant, half beer warehouse. But the drink selection might not even be the best part, as the food here was awesome. I went with the Chicago Dog for a modest four bucks, and it was as good as any I'd ever had - perfectly grilled dog, all the right high-quality toppings and a fresh-tasting bun. The pub fries sealed the deal though - a huge pile of fries with generous helpings of perfectly-melted cheese and just-soft-enough-just-crispy-enough bacon. My friend and I could have shared the large order of Pub Fries and been just fine. I saw someone's sandwich across the bar, and it was truly enormous - I could come here with a friend and for ten bucks, get my fill of sandwich, fries and beer for the rest of the day. Great value, great experience!!

  • Jonathon S.

    Everyone else has talked up the humongous beer selection, so I won't belabor the point. You can always find the old favorites, as well as literally hundreds of things you've never tried or even heard of before. Plus, they have a wide and rotating draft selection. (By the way, unless you're one of those people who needs to see the label turn blue, most of the beers in the non-cold room are plenty cold enough to drink as it is. It's the beer *cave*, not the beer *greenhouse*, after all.) The menu has expanded recently, but the hot dogs are still the best part. (A close second is the sausage sandwiches...) The chili cheese fries will clog the hell out of your arteries, but you *will* like it. The mural opposite the bar (see one of the profile pictures) sometimes reads like a term paper on the history and varieties of beers, but it still makes this place the most educational bar (on any subject other than anatomy, anyway) in Pittsburgh. The mural in the other room, depicting a wide variety of local and global celebrities, is pretty entertaining, too. Not really good for groups---while they'll be happy to have you, finding seating for all of you is likely to be complicated. Plenty of food to please the age-inappropriate among you, and they've even got a quite good root beer on draft. If they've got liquor under the bar somewhere, I've never seen it, but they've usually got a couple bottles of house wine open. (But what did you expect? It's a beer bar.)

    In my final meal in Pittsburgh, I finally had the closest thing to a Pittsburgh sandwich and that was the Big Ben Hot Dog with cole slaw, fries, and a cheese sauce. It oddly worked and I enjoyed the meal before I had to hit the road. The fries our table shared was also a winner as they were crispy and uniformly cut and fluffy potato goodness in the middle. Definitely a great cheap eats spot.

    Well, it has good hot dogs and a wide, wide variety of beer, stocking without pretense; Miller and Unibrau. The hot dogs are good. The beer is unfortunately not so cheap; six packs aren't much cheaper than just buying four or five beers. Bad for groups more that four people; great for two or three.

  • A L.

    This place is no longer the cool hole-in-the-wall place to get a hot dog and beer (from a good selection). They've expanded and that is both good and bad in my mind. I liked the small, personal feel to the old place, but it definitely limited how many people who could be in the shop at a time. So, now they have a much more extended seating area with a bar area and a back room devoted to brews. I brought my friends here who like beer, and they were ecstatic to find a fave beer that they haven't been able to find anywhere in the DC area. (Go Pittsburgh!). The selection is nice and its good to see that I can find those out of the way beers so that I don't have to get just the norm from a beer distributor. The hot dogs? None of us were gushing about them afterward. But they're ok. 4 stars for the beer selection.

  • R J.

    I don't understand the hype for D's, although I guess their beer selection *does* rule. If selection drives your decision-making, definitely head on over. However, if you'd like to receive anything other than slow, resentful service from your waitstaff, or food that is anything above sub-par, head on by without stopping. I've lived just down Forbes from D's for 3 yrs, and walk down there with friends a lot during the summer and early fall. I'm also a former bartender and waitress, so I can say with experience and certainty that I've received just downright terrible service there about 80% of the times I've been. Once, a friend and I stopped in for lunch with her kids and ended up waiting for the check 18 minutes after we'd asked to receive it. We were both fuming, and the waitress just looked annoyed and kept ignoring us to chat with her buddy. Another time, my husband and I came in 15 minutes before the ordering deadline, and watched as the waitress did not approach our table until exactly the cut-off time. She proudly announced that we could no longer order food (we just wanted pretzels, for god's sake). Food is pretty lackluster, although it's a nice touch that they have veggie dogs. Upstairs, expect about the same level of service, with a douchy element of annoyed resentment from the bartender, along with even douchy-ier clientele. I know D's is a favorite neighborhood place, but I'm tired of the abuse from waitstaff who look annoyed that I'm even there. If this was just a once-in-a-while occurrence, I'd be forgiving, but 3 years is long enough to judge.

    Living 2 blocks from this place is dangerous. If you're into quality beer and good pub grub, then this is your place. My favorites are the pizza, chicago style hot dogs and cheese fries! When it comes to the beer, let's just say that there are more selections than you can imagine (... they claim 1000+!!!)

    I think their beer selection is much more impressive than their hot dog selection. although, mac and cheese on a hot dog is a pretty amazing option. but really, come for the beer cave and you won't be disappointed.

    It's getting three stars for the beer selection. The hot dogs are nothing special, nor is one enough if you're hungry. I can buy a package of hot dogs at Giant Eagle and get the same effect times 10. Last time I was there someone said the pizzas looked good. Next time.

    This place has a Beer Cave! Seriously, that's what they call it. We got to go in and select the beer of our choice from shelves and shelves of single bottles, everything from Bud to Hoegaarden to Chimay and back again. So many beers I've never even heard of. Anyway, they have hot dogs too...soooo many choices. I came with a group and we all easily satisfied our hot dog cravings. I had the veggie dog with cheese, tomatoes and dill pickles, and it was so so yummy. Everyone else was thrilled with their dogs as well. We also got cheese fries with ranch dipping sauce, fried zucchini, and onion rings...and heart attacks...just kidding, but damn what a greasy meal of awesomeness!

  • Graham C.

    It would get 4 stars for the name alone. The idea that they would just sell you hot dogs and six-packs is so just and pure it almost makes me want to weep. I went here and had the bacon chili cheddar dog and one with relish, kraut, and brown mustard. Both were excellent dogs, and their beer list is incredible. Again, how come we can't have this is Boston, where it comes off as real? If they tried this in NYC or Boston, it would come off as a gimmick. Whereas here, in Swissvale, it just seems like a neighborhood place with a twist. A coronary twist. So good.....

  • Veronique L.

    The name itself is pretty self explanatory. You can pretty much get a hot dawg any way you like it. Although I've never tried a Chicago Dog in Chicago, D's Chicago Dogs are one of my faves on their menu. D's also makes a mean chili which is good on your dawgs or pomme frites. Not to mention the plethora of beer!! They have almost every beer imaginable (unfortunately not on tap). D's is a local favourite and is definitely worth a try when visiting Pittsburgh.

  • John L.

    Service here is spotty at best, but the food keeps bringing me back! About 25 unique beers on tap. I like the Chicago Burger, with a side of ever so crispy fries. If you are in the mood for great dogs, a burger and a few beers, this is the place to go. If they could only get the service down.

  • Rachel G.

    Even though they were out of the first beers we asked for (the Dogfish Punkin) this place hit the spot for a junk food craving. Vegetarians: the veggie dog is awesome, not rubbery or pale but nearly mistakable for an actual hot dog. I ordered one with kraut and mustard, and my boyfriend braved the three-cheese dog, which was hard to pick up but looked tasty. Their fries were good, and were generously portioned (definitely shareable) for a $1.50 small. Next time, we'll delve more into their beer selection.

  • Jessica M.

    This place came highly recommended when I moved to Pittsburgh two years ago. They have an amazing beer selection, good dogs and they must have expanded the place in the last year because they have a pull up garage wall that I never noticed before. Fries are good too. Something about it is gimmicky to me but I'll let it go. Might as well stop here first before going to see a movie across the street...

    Best beer selection and bar food I've ever had- anywhere. The Vienna Beef hot dogs are delicious and the Buffalo wings the best in the 'burgh. The kielbasa and fish sandwiches are solid, as is their pizza (I was skeptical- I thought, why not stick w/ just the hot dogs since they're perfect? but they're also very good.). Skip the chips- they taste burned. The fries are sooo good- get them with chili and cheese or pub style (cheese and bacon with homemade ranch to dip in)... Yes if you eat this every day it will kill you, but if you're looking for the best bar food- this is it. If you're looking for the best beer selection- you can't find anything better. Good selection on tap and amazing variety in the beer cave (they say it's ~1000 different beers). Some say Sharp Edge has better on tap...but their food is terrible.

    Although this area of town seems to be full of yuppie/student assholes who should probably have their asses kicked on principle, D's is actually quite good. Besides the unbelievable selection of beer (which is nice, but I'm the kind of guy who likes the more exotic beers but is perfectly happy with a Miller Lite or a Bud), the hot dogs are pretty awesome. I had the Chicago dog and the Red Alert dog, both were excellent. Service was good too, despite the fact the place was packed when I went. You can also carry your beers outside to smoke or just chat in warm weather even if the few outdoor bar tables aren't available. Non-pretentious atmosphere, despite the yuppies and hipsters infesting the area, which is a plus for me. I'd definitely go back next time I'm in Pittsburgh.

    Very very VERY good beer selection. I liked going into the "beer cave" and finding a wide selection of Belgian beers including ones that I hadn't seen since studying abroad in Paris. Hot dogs were excellent, and not as messy as I had anticipated; the fries were fantastic. Service was a bit slower than I would've expected for a lazy Monday afternoon. I don't think it takes very long to prepare a hot dog, so that's the only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars.

    D's is a classic pittsburgh joint. Their main fare is hot dogs with a wide variety of toppings, but their menu also includes other standard bar foods like Pizza, calzones, hoagies, etc. But let's be honest, while the food is good, when D's comes up in conversation it is unlikely because you are raving about the "chicago dog" you had there last night: D's is widely recognize as the location of the "beer cave", a massive collection of beers from around the country and even around the world. Everything from little-known microbrews to fairly exotic imports like Delirium Tremens (the variety comes from the fact that they are owned by the same people as the nearby McBrooms beer distributor, I have been told). A group of us grad students goes there every thursday night, so say hello if you're there. An added bonus is that the "new" side of the restaurant is already smoke free.

    The hot dogs are somewhat disappointing and the beer is slightly overpriced, but you come here for the sheer selection of those beers. An enormous beer cave makes one feel like a kid in a beer store. Unfortunately, only their cheaper domestic/import selection is refrigerated, which really sucks cause you can't drink those beers you find int he beer cave right away. Still, if you're looking for selection, this is the place.

    My dining partner assured me they had every beer I could think of. I asked for a personal favorite, Pliny the Elder. The waiter was gracious and consulted the inventory expert. Nope. He suggested another IPA which was on par, so I was content with that. The food is acceptable. Nachos were with the round yellow bag chips, plus some cheese sauce, and a spattering of jalapenos. The Chicken Supreme Sandwich was kind of boring, but filling. You don't go here for the sandwiches; I recounted this story to someone and they were unaware that sandwiches are even sold. I am told their namesake dogz are excellent, but I can't verify. We took a visit to the beer cave before we left and I saw a great assortment of top beers with many of my favorites. I'm not a beer snob, but I know what I like. La Fin du Monde, Trois Pistoles, Arrogant Bastard, Boont, Lagunitas IPA, all present and accounted for. The service was excellent.

    This is a great place to go if you're in the 'burgh. This small joint expanded in the last year. great dogs and a huge selection of beer, imported and otherwise. Service has always been decent and better. Sports agames are often on the TV so get ready for that. Atmosphere is pretty neat- there's a weird mural in the larger seating area that's worth a peek and a air duct in top of the room that's cleverly painted like a wooden beam- can't get over that. I am a fan. Go here- then go catch a movie at Regent Square theater up the street.

    good selection of beers*, but the food is appalling. sysco-truk curly fries and run-of-the-mill hotdogs that don't even have natural casings. puh-leez. if you're gonna put "dogz" in the name of your restaurant at least try to serve something better than what you can get on sale at giant eagle. no joke: I prefer the O. their fries are made out of potatoes and their dogs have real casings. * and by "good" I mean "good for PA" where liquor laws are an absurd kafkaesque mess and a lindeman's geuze is about as interesting as it gets (for like $15, natch)

    Made my first trip to D's today. By far one of the best bars I have been to. Great atmosphere, good food for a bar, and how can I not mention the BEER CAVE. They have an impeccable selection of brew. Great place to go for a night out or just to have a good time. I would imagine a Stiller game would be pretty fun to watch. The prices are just right including drinks, but if only we could do something about the county drink tax. I will visit this place frequently.

    Sick tap selection. Better than anything in D.C. where I currently live. I was shocked. So many Stone beers as well as other breweries that I rarely see. Went here twice while visiting Pittsburgh. I liked the scene here. It was low-key and people were polite. The hotdogs were great. I had the Chicago dog. I loved the peppers they put on the dog; not sure what they were. I definitely recommend this place if you like craft beer.

    This place was great! I was a little bit let down by the Chicago hot dog as it had too much mustard. That said, however, I was really excited by the beer selection and the neon green relish. If you're looking for a chill meal, this is a great place to check out!

    Rupe Rankings of note: - #1: crave factor - #1: signature sandwich (hotdog) - #1: beer selection - #2: pizza - #2: fries Menu recommendations: - chili cheese dog - scorpassi (kielbasa with jalapenos) - garden pizza - plain fries - any brew you haven' t had or from blue point, ommegang or bell's Why you would go: - 1000+ bottled beers on hand for on-premise consumption or customized 6-pack creation - 30-40 brews on tap for pints or take-away growlers - awesome pub food - miller lite for cheap (in the new fully-stocked upstairs bar) - roll-up doors on the restaurant side for quasi-outdoor seating Why you wouldn't go: - with a larger group (more than 4 people) - seeking a quiet evening spot for kids (afternoons are fine for kids) - unwilling to pay the premium for micro / craft / import brews - unable to parallel park Overall impression: Terriffic neighborhood place for a small group to grab some terribly unhealthy food and try some new beers.

    I came here with a bunch of Russian language students who go to the University of Pittsburgh, figuring locals and Russian speakers would know the best bars. I was not wrong. This place is absolutely awesome, with an impressive beer selection and great prices. The staff is spot on with suggestions and somehow able to keep up with about 100 simultaneous and separate tabs going at once. At happy hour, I had incredible Belgian wheat beer for about $3 and even the pizza wasn't bad. For the upscale beer they serve, the place isn't trendy or yuppie. You go to the cooler in the back and just grab your own bottle or ask for a pour of whatever they have on draft (it changes often). They even let you make your own six packs and walk off with them. The music is good, and not played too loud so that you can talk to your fellow pubcrawlers. Highest endorsement. To Rob, ogromnoye spaceba!

  • William E.

    this is probably the best place to go get a six-pack of craft beer. the beer cave has thousands of bottles, and the walk-in cooler has a smaller but still VERY extensive collection. If you want your warmer beers from the cave chilled, there is a chilling station. All six-packs get a dollar-off per beer take-out as well. The ambience isn't as nice as, say, the sharp-edge, but the prices MORE than make up for it. ($4ish for a skulls splitter vs. $9.50 or $10 for example). Only complaint is that the bar gets noisy and the heat from the grille (behind the bar) can be a little intense in the summer. Couldn't be happier to live down the street from this gem! Oh yeah... the staff is great too.

    This is paradise for beer connoisseurs. A range of beer that confuses, bedazzles and quenches you thirst for quality brews. The selection on lager and ales on tap as well as in the 'beer cave' make this place one of a kind. The special hummus, fries, hot dogz, and pizza make it the perfect hangout place any given day in Pittsburgh

    I am not huge on hot dogs or beer. However, I am huge on add-ons. This is where D's comes in. I totally recommend the chihuahua hot dog. It has avocado!!! The wings are delish too. This place is a must go for beer lovers. I am still the light and sweet kinda beer person, so I tried something with raspberry notes in it, and LOVED it! Oh and the fries are awe-frickin-some!! My second fave in the city after Point Brugge.

  • Rachel W.

    I love two things: beer, and hot dogs. I really love hot dogs. Gross, I know right? My bf is a vegetarian and he won't come near me with hot dog breath. But this place has veggie hot dogs too!!! Not to mention- the amazing amazing beer selection. Definitely one of the best I've seen in the Pittsburgh area. Coolers line the back wall and part of the perimeter of the store. If you get take out, it's a dollar off a bottle! Yayyy. They also have a cooler that (I think) is constantly reserved for whatever seasonal beers are appropriate at the time. Mmmmmm. Try the Roethlisberger hot dog, it's got cole slaw and french fries on it.

  • kevin c.

    I have been to Pittsburgh several times in the last year and this place is one of my favorites. Not just because the hot dogs are good and variety or them is pretty good too. I come just for the beer cave! Plenty of choice in there and the ability to pick your own is awesome! It gets pretty packed in there on weekends. Service is no nonsense. Best is the beer selection in the cave. This is the reason for the 4stars.

  • Chloe F.

    D's is the 'it' place for Pittsburgh... especially for those that like beer. There are several Belgian pubs around Pittsburgh, but D's is a whole different experience. Yes, the cave is like a candy shop. The cave is located in the back of the left side. The first time I went (after reading Yelp reviews) I was a little intimidated to head straight past the bar. It's not like BevMo so don't expect to save a lot on a six pack but if you're interested in sampling and trying out different craft or imported beer it's the place. Plus, who can resist a cheap, filling hot dog? Hm.. hungry. I'm going there now.

    (5)
  • Keith C.

    D's has the best Chicago style hot dog in Pittsburgh. Whenever I come here, I usually get 2 of their Chicago dogs and a couple orders of chili fries when I'm with a bunch of people. The best part of D's is their beer cave. It is packed with beers all over the world. This was the only place I could find Perkuno's Hammer before it got retired. You can find bottles of literally anything here. The best part is that you can grab a 6-pack and just fit any 6 beers in it to go or have them for the table.

    LOVE this place. Delicious hot dogs (I am loyal to the mac & cheese topped hot dog - judge me, I don't care) & the most incredible fries around. I live in Regent Square & I'm thrilled to have a local go-to place for a quick dinner & a beer for very reasonable prices. They often have a $5 dog & fries lunch special that I gratefully take advantage of. Yum!

  • Antoinette Marie D.

    Awesome. That is D's. Burgers, dogs, and fries are so done, right? Wrong. Excellent toppings, excellent food, excellent beer selection. The fries and vegetarian selections are well done, so no one feels left out. I didn't know about this place until I started getting into trying odd micro-brews and I was looking for some different beers I had while living abroad. The beer cave is an experience and you will not be letdown. I have yet to meet someone who feels that D's is anything less than stellar. Sidenote: I highly recommend D's Sixpax for someone's 21st birthday to pick out a six-pack from their epic selection of brews. (Also, buy them a hot dog, cheapskate!)

    D's is a fantastic place with food! Reasonably priced and a nice atmosphere! Can get crowded but that's because it's soooo good! I love the selection of beer, it always me to try out a new beer without having to buy a whole case!

    During my visit to Pittsburgh, I wanted to experience the best that the city has to offer when it comes to local dives. And this place did not disappoint simply because of their awesome selection of imported beers and microbrews in the "cave". Just be prepared to shell out the cash for it. Any place that serves Delirium Tremens on tap deserves high praise! As a Chicago native, I've had my fair share of meat encased goodness. And while these signature dogs are very good, its hard to crown them the best I've ever had. On the other hand, the fries were perfectly crispy and delicious. therefore a must. The waiting staff was super friendly and its plugged in a great neighborhood. Overall, I'd give the place 4 1/2 stars instead of the 4 if I could. What I had: Big Ben hot dog (typical Pittsburgh toppings) Chili cheese fries (the small was enough for two) Cold glass of DT (duh!) When did I go: Saturday @ noon - plenty of space without the wait Will I come back? Even though it was my first time, I would definitely come back again and again.

    What a cool place. The beercave was very unique. If I hadn't just had my wisdom teeth out, I would have totally sampled some of the fine brews they had stocked away. What I did enjoy was the friend zucchini. It was hot from the fryer when it got to our table, and it absolutely hit the spot. I'd never had it before, and zucchini is one of my favorite vegetables. My friend said that the service can be slow, but we didn't have any problems.

    One of the few reasons I may miss Pittsburgh when I go to grad school. The hot dogs are piled on high with the best, fattiest stuff I can muster up, and the beer selection is one of the best in Allegheny Co. Great for a night out with friends, followed by indie movies at the Regent Square Theatre across the street.

    I got the rundown of PA drinking laws, its resulting greatness in D's. This probably has the biggest selection of anywhere I've been and the food is great too. Every loaded fries that passed hooked my eyes like I'd been celibate for a year. Take a dollar off for take-out beer too. I love the descriptions in the menus and how every hot dog is the same price.

    There are tables but we opted to order our dogs in the bar. The bar was small neighborhood size, busy, very laid back and everyone was enjoying themselves. People in Pittsburgh are always friendly. We stopped here on our way to a Penguins game. They have a great jukebox, lots of great beer & hot dog selections. The only challenge was parking, but D's is located on a great street. Loved this place!

  • Kourteney G.

    Frosty drafts, the best veggie dog I've ever tasted, and delicious whole wheat-crust pizza. Thankfully, since their beer selection is vast and ranges from relatively cheap to ridiculous, the food is generally well-priced. Toning it down on the drinks can easily bring your bill down to a manageable twenty bucks for two people. They get a little extra bump from me because they so graciously hosted the Pittsburgh Beer Society for a long time, AND gave PBS members 10% off their beers. The downside? Service can be spastic, and I've never seen each person at a table get each of their meals at the same time. One person can scarf down two (delicious) Chicago dogs long before their partner receives their (equally delicious) calzone. But Omar, hipsters and yuppies? Aside from the occasional pair of skinny jeans and a trucker cap or two, I've seen mostly families taking advantage of D's great prices and groups of friends chatting and sharing drinks. It's definitely not a place to go to see and be seen, which suits me just fine.

    Love this local hot spot, also crowded and lively. Greasy comfort food, great beer and root beer. amazing election of bottled beer. Staff is nice and this place is super kid friendly. Order the veggie Chicago dog. Yum and messy too so watch your feet.

    D's is just a great place to hang out. We biked here that single nice day in April and had lunch. The atmosphere is very chill, and the servers just wait on whoever needs help, which is cool. I am not a beer drinker but the beer cave is so impressive! I'm sure I could have found something special but wasn't in a browsing mood. Another thing, when I heard "dogs" I thought great - not veg friendly! But mistaken! They had tons of veg options! Not only veggie dogs are offered, but they have a great hummus platter, salads and more! I LOVED the hummus... so tasty! All in all, a great experience! I would love to come back and watch a daytime game here and grab a tasty bite!

    Just made my yearly pilgrimage to D's after my eye exam across the street. Great Taps (local offerings and belgian style) with Chicago style hotdogs, what more do you need to know!...Waiter made some excellent beer suggestions and I rarely stray from the "off the rack" Chicago dog but his suggestion to add the bacon was spot on. No trip is complete without visiting the beer cave. Some hard to get gems can be had. Many of the choices can be found at Giant Eagle now for less. Their selection of Mikkeller offerings was an unexpected bonus. Walked out of their with some great hard to find titles...see you guys next year!....

    I come here for the veggies dogs. My husband comes here for the beer cave. The beer is a bit expensive (compared to buying it in stores in NY). But if you're craving your favorite difficult to find because of the crazy PA licquor laws, this is your place. This place is family and group friendly, so sometimes you might have a wait.

    Driving back from here right now. Great first experience. I'm not really a huge hot dog guy either. I eat them twice a year: Memorial and Labor Day. However, the hot dogs were really good. I got the chicago beef dog. Wasn't a huge fan of the relish (don't really like sweet with savory) but I gave it shot. Friend got a custom turkey dog. He said the colesaw was great, as was the entire hot dog. We also split small chili cheese fries. They were fantastic. Fries were crispy. Service was fast. Great selection of beer. I got the Seamus red ale. The beer cave is awesome. Beware of the yellow mustard though. After several washings, my hands are still dyed yellow.

    I go here a lot. I think most folks who live in Regent Square/Swissvale/Edgewood area do too. And it's probably not because the food is so utterly delicious. It's because it's a groovy little place with young hipster (and some not so hipster) bartenders and waitresses that serves up an endless array of beers in a funky loud space. I love Regent Square and always saw the potential for the grand old days of Hippy Free Love lying dormant in her quaint shops and family eateries ... until D's sprang to life in a former dry cleaner/gun shop space. Oh yes, how the times have changed and we are all so thankful for it. Big KUDOS to the D's Empire in Regent Square -- the Beer Distributor, D's Six Packs and Dogs, and the newest entrant Cibo! Well done! Stop on in for a nice hot pizza (I loved the Frickin Parker with meat balls and hot peppers but alas, it has been banished to the basement beer dungeon for-evah!) or a mediocre hotdog and languish in the beer heaven known simply as D's. They also have a smoky dark strange but intriguing (if you've had enough beer downstairs) bar upstairs now that serves alcohol.

  • Michaela H.

    I am SO glad that we live within walking distance to D's! The beer cave is to die for (though I find it hard to believe there are 1,000 beers in there) and stocks some pretty hard to find brews. I love that you can make your own six pack-- a great way to try a variety of beers without having to take the risk of hardcore commitment. There is a smaller refrigerated section at the front of the cave too, which is nice. What I really appreciate is that D's serves veggie dogs (a pretty uncommon find) that are pretty tasty! I quickly became smitten with their veggie Chihuaha dogs. I've also tried their nachos which were good (wiz, not shredded cheese). Great for takeout and dining in alike.

  • Lydia P.

    I lived in Pittsburgh for four years and have never been to D's, but I visited recently and went with some friends. What lured me was the promise of veggie dogs and burgers, and I was not let down. I got two hot dogs--a Chicago and a mac and cheese. Really, really good. My boyfriend ordered the Red Alert dog (his was meat) and his face basically melted off, but he insisted he loved it. Then he said the spices may or may not have traveled to his tear ducts, but to each his own. He had a great time. My two friends also got the mac and cheese veggie dog and loved it. The beer cave is awesome. I'd love to give D's five stars, but like a couple of people mentioned, the service is lacking. Everyone is friendly, but I had to walk around and find our server so I could pay, and then find him again when he didn't return. It took us a while to get water refills, too. The dining area and the bar are separated, and it seems like the servers congregate in one place and leave the other vacant at any given time. Very nice people though.

    First stop on my Midwest Brew Crawl with the BF! The BF ate here once last year and loved it so much that we decided that we needed to make it our first stop on our road trip to Minnesota. We planned our departure time so that we could get here at lunch (it was a mere 7 hour drive!) We both ordered the Bacon Cheese all beef dog (hot dog with bacon and melted cheddar on top) plus a corn dog, dusted wings and two root beers. We didn't try any of the beers on tap since we still had a lot of driving ahead of us. The Bacon Cheese was ridiculously good and I wished that I could have finished it. Unfortunately I hogged pretty much all of the corn dog since it was AMAZING!!! The wings were also really good, maybe even among the top three chicken wings that we had the whole trip. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is in the Pittsburgh area or anyone who is crazy enough to drive 7 hours for a hot dog.

    Awesome beer selection, draft and bottles. You can get beer to go. Hot dogs and more bar food type stuff. The fries are double-fried (Belgian style) and plentiful. High points of the sandwich menu: The giant fish, the Big Ben cheesesteak (toppings include fries & coleslaw), and the half-pound keilbasa with horseradish, brown mustard, and sauerkraut. Good pizzas too. The Swissvale Shroom is awesome mushroomy goodness, and I love the Popeye's on a whole wheat crust. One big warning: Service is wonky, especially if you order both pizza and sandwiches. The pizza kitchen is on a different schedule from the sandwich/dogs kitchen, and they make _no_ attempt to coordinate. Pizzas take 30 minutes and dogs take 10-15, so if you order a sandwich and your buddy orders a pizza, you'll be finished eating before his food gets there. Down sides: - The burgers are not very good. They come out large and dry. - Service is quirky (as mentioned above). - Gets crowded, especially on weekends. They frequently have a seating list in the dining room side, but I think the bar side is still "grab a table" - that's confusing. Beer only, though they've opened the "loft" upstairs that seems to have a full bar - I haven't been there.

    I'm not from PA, I'm from VA. In VA I worked at a wine and beer bar, where we served and I tasted some of the best beers in the world. And in VA we don't have absurd old beer and wine control laws, meaning our access to reasonably priced, intelligently stocked beer is much higher than pittsburgh. That said, the best selection of beer I've found in this city has been at D's. You will find a number of american craft brews, trappist ales, etc. The only problem is the price... which is solvable. D's has a great system, if you buy a bottle of beer to take out of the restaurant they take 1 dollar off the bottle. This dollar off doesn't matter when you consider how small a normal bottle is, but when you look at the larger bottles it does. The prices for their larger bottles with the dollar off are not much higher than you would pay in a specialty beer shop in a less regulated state. The only problem is that you have to commit to drinking three or four beers instead of one - I'm not really seeing the issue with that, but I'm sure someone will. Also, I've never eaten here, because hot dogs are generally not good. Furthermore, I'm not sure why anyone would go to a hot-dog joint and expect good service. So ignore anyone talking about hot-dogs and come here for the beer. Finally, parking sucks there's a lot of very busy restaurants and businesses on the same street, so expect to walk a little.

    For my 200th review, I'm going to write a review for D's Six Pax & Dogs, which couples a review I just wrote for The Loft- a bar just upstairs from here owned by the same people. I've been to D's a couple of times with groups of friends, and this is quite a fun and neighborhoody venue with good food (amazing veggie dogs!) and great beer. The owners pride themselves in being a little more family friendly, and it seems that this is true from the crowds I have always seen here. But fear not fellow 20 single somethings: this place can be for you too! There is ample room at the bar to chill with good beers to watch the game, and also bring a group of friends to one of the adjoining tables. If I lived over in the Regent Square/Wilkinsburg area, I would stop in here more often. However, it has become a cool bar that I frequent before/after a movie at the Regent Square Theater. Cheers!

    D's has long been a stand-by for a good veggie hotdog and a nice beer selection for me. It has reasonable bar food and a reasonably priced wide selection of beer. My meat-eating friends seem to really like the wings and various meat hotdogs and burgers. It is always very crowded during peak dinner times, even early in the week in my experience. Extpect a long wait on weekends for sure! D's is a comfortable place to go for me and attracts a young-ish crowd but not to young. The atmosphere is lively and casual. Service can be slow but the servers are always friendly. Overall this is a good casual food place. The walk-in beer cooler and additional beer selection are a draw as well. They do have some vegetarian options as well, which I always appreciate.

    I am a fan of this place. I love the dogs, of course. I love the beers, of course. I love the Beer Cave the most. I'm not sure if it's the largest collection of bottles, but it's pretty impressive nonetheless. I just wish that the beers I wanted had the prices labeled. I swear, every one I grabbed for had price tags on the beers surrounding it but not on the one I wanted. Anyway, the dogs are tender and juicy. Even the veggie dogs are pretty convincingly "dog-like." The fries are plentiful and pretty damn good. Greasy and salty (but not too much of either) and a perfect accompaniment to beers and hot dogs. The servers are friendly and helpful with the menu. Pros: great beer selection, wonderful food, friendly staff Cons: I was here after brunch to catch the hockey game and they had NCAA basketball on instead; not a big deal, but enough to be annoying

    Just stopped in for a beer or two before the Pens game. Bartenders were very friendly, especially considering how busy they were. Food is perfect drinking food.

    Was at D's this afternoon! I was so excited to find real vienna Hot Dogs in Pittsburgh since I am a born and raised Chicago guy. They were good dogs, had mine Chicago Style of course! Not sure it was Pollmans Mustard. It the buns had poppy seeds! A great place with plenty of atmosphere!

    I'm in love. I came from a place where there were hot dog stands all over the place and found that, in general, Pittsburgh is lacking in that area. Craving a hot dog, I found D's on Yelp and figured I would give it a try. I was intrigued by the specials menu so I started with an order of wings and Buffalo wing hummus. This Buffalo girl was pleased. The wings were tasty and done perfectly. And the hummus was so good I wanted to ask for the recipe. The flavor combinations of the hot dogs were crazy. Who would ever think of putting pineapples and bacon on a hot dog? Well, I'm glad they did. It was an interesting mix of flavors and was very satisfying. If I hadn't also tried the wings and hummus, I would have tried at least two other hot dog creations. Aside from the creations on the menu, you are also able to customize your own creation. There is also a "beer cave" that I can't review since I didn't try any, but it looks impressive. I eagerly await my next trip to D's!

    This place is known for hotdogs and beers. I had the special of the day pulled pork dog. It's basically hotdog topped with pickle, cole slaw, and pulled pork. You can add additional toppings free of charge and as many as you like! I had avocado and mushrooms added to my hotdog. They have a lot of toppings to choose from. The price is very reasonable at about $5 and they have the veggie dog option, which is a plus. All these add on made the hotdog very good and their fries were good too.

    Now that we do not live in Pittsburgh; D's is a must go to when we are back in town. Their main specialty is beer and that is what I always have so I can not speak to any liquor or wine options. The beer selection is awesome. They have over 1000 different kinds of beer. You just have to make your selection and they will open it for you at your table. You can also create your own mix and match 6 pack to carry out. Now on to the food. If you get french fries - I am warning you, the portion is very large. The ones with bacon and cheese are a great. We tried both the wet and dry wings and were happy with both. Now the reason we came here; the hot dogs. And oh are they amazing. They have hot dogs combinations on the menu, but you can also create any combination that you want. I am a HUGE fan of the Chicago Dog - they do it right!!! On a side note - if you like Root Beer, they have a great root beer on draft. They do offer a children's menu as well and it is completely fine for children in the middle of the day. You see tons of families. The staff has always been very friendly and helpful. They know their beer and food very well! If you have never been here; I recommend it.

    D's is a great place to drink to your heart's content with any darn beer you please! They have just about any beer your little mug could possibly conjure up. The service is quick, not overly friendly but they get the job done- what you expect from a pub type atmosphere. A great after-work unwind.

    This was another place that came highly recommended while we were in town and this place also didn't not disappoint! The food was good. The dogs were tasty and they had some interesting recipes but let's cut to the chase.... the beer selection is massive! Being from Michigan, we are spoiled with craft beers from our fine state, but with that comes the desire to try other state's craft beer selection and D's had a solid selection of PA brews. For one, the beer cooler had a good sized selection, but it's all about the hundreds of warm beers they have in the back of the restaurant. They have pretty much anything you want back there and it doesn't' matter that it's warm because they have a beer chiller where you can put your beers in there until optimal temperature. It only takes about 7 minutes and they are good to go as well. Needless to say, this is another recommendation that I will pass on to all friends heading to Pittsburgh. I'll spare the beer reviews as there's another app for that.

    I have to echo the sentiments of others on the service here...it is always friendly and quick (but not suspiciously so). Plenty of beers to choose from on tap, in the cooler and back room with some awesome wine selections to boot. The hot valentine, mac n cheese and chihuahua dogs are my favorites and I could bathe in the avocado spread that tops those immaculate veggie pub style fries.

    D's Six Pax & Dogz is a legend in the east end. I have eaten here once or twice and gotten takeout from here once. It's tasty, and the beer selection is impressive, but the experience hadn't quite knocked my socks off until last night. My husband ordered some to-go food to eat while we were at the nearby The Loft bar. He ordered the Mac'N Cheese hot dog with Fries. The hot dog was incredible! The mac and cheese was so delicious that I asked one of The Loft's bartenders for a fork to finish off the 1/2 cup of mac and cheese that had fallen off the bun and was laying sadly in the styrofoam box. I wasn't wasting a bite of that deliciousness. The fries were really tasty, too -- super crispy and perfectly seasoned. Based on my overall experience at D's, I still rate this place 3 stars. However, if I have a few more of the Mac'N Cheese hot dog and Fries combinations, I may be quickly updating my review!

    Came here for lunch after a long day on the road It's a beer and bar place. They have a variety of beer, they have a room all the way in the back with lots of different beer and a separate room displaying other kinds of beer. They also have outdoor seating. It's like 2 shops next to each other separated by a hall way. I didn't even know there was a spot next door until I went to the restroom. The fries are good. They offer pizza and other goodies too. They have many types of different types of dogs. I had the veggie red alert which is spicy. They have 3 kinds of hot dogs so it caters even to the vegetarian. Regular dog, beef dog and veggie dog. You have unlimited toppings - mushrooms, onions, creamy avocado etc. The dog came in this little boat sized paper tray. I find it very hard to eat because all of the toppings would fall off to the table, but they do have paper towels for you to put underneath if you want to do this so you can eat whatever falls off. The veggie dog tasted like the real thing. They also have dogs of the day. Quite an interesting place but worth the visit in a little town.

    I think I have spent more money at D's than anywhere else in my entire life and I am ok with that. Great atmosphere, staff, food, and beer. The best is at Patrick's day breakfast...or any other time you chose to patron the establishment.

  • Michael R.

    The place is kind of small and disjointed a bit but they make up for it with their beer selection and great staff. The food is mostly bar food with a twist, offering cool toppings for regular sandwiches and burgers. The pizza was pretty good, and the bar area had plenty of tv's but lacked seating. The worst part honestly was a group of fellow patrons who couldn't get a seat at the bar so they stood in a corner and ruined my experience. Unfortunately, the bar kept serving them alcohol because they were highly beligerant, loud and shouting things deragotory about gays and mocking to kiss trying to get a reaction out of other patrons who happened to be gay. Pretty sad there were bigoted a-holes who ruined an overall good experience. However, I won't let them bring the place down as a whole, and the quick service and good selections allow me to give it 4 stars.

    very good pittsburgh food! get the big ben dog or the big ben burger and add a side of chili cheese fries to share with the table. Do not go while on any type of healthy eating plan. There's a big menu and everything is unhealthy and delicious. Not overly greasy or salty though. I have never personally checked out there beer selection but it is certainly plentiful. Service is usually quick and friendly. Very nice when the weather is good and the garage door in front is open. Otherwise it is a bit dark and dingy.

    CM and I visited D's yesterday (Sat.) at around 7pm for dinner. Given that CM lives right around the corner, and that I had a City Dining Card, D's had been on our list for awhile, and we were eager to check it out. We happened to arrive right when the Kentucky Derby was in full swing, and there wasn't a table to be had, so we gave our name to the hostess to be texted when a table became available (Note: D's uses NoWait). Fortunately, we arrived right at the end of the derby, so several tables soon cleared out, and we received the text within 10 min., despite an estimated wait of 15 min. Once we were seated at one of the high tops next to the mural, we perused the menu to decide what to order. Because I don't eat beef, I decided to go with the turkey dog ($5.50), style of the month for May (topped with pierogies, onions, and sour cream), as well as a veggie dog ($5.50), Angry Tiki style (topped with bacon, pineapple, hoisin sauce, and spicy cheese sauce). CM decided to go with the bratwurst dog ($6.50), Mason Dixon style (topped with chili and coleslaw) on a wheat bun (+$.50) and a turkey dog, Big Ben style (topped with fries, cheese wiz, and cole slaw). In addition to the dogs, we ordered a large order of fries, pub style ($8). The fries were brought out first, per our request, so that we could munch on them. I'm pretty sure they were the largest order of fries I've ever received--they would have solved the Irish potato famine in a jiffy! They came drenched in cheese wiz and generously sprinkled with real bacon bits (not Bac-Os!), with a sizeable cup of ranch dressing on the side, which we promptly poured on, as well (yeah!). Despite all the dressings, the fries were pleasantly crispy, due to being of the battered variety. However, over the course of our meal, they became progressively more soggy, due to the dressings soaking into them. Between the two of us, we finished about 2/3 of them--not too shabby, esp. for people of our size! As for the dogs, to my surprise, I was more of a fan of the Angry Tiki than the pierogi dog of the month. When it comes to the dogs themselves, I preferred the turkey dog to the veggie dog, which I found bland. However, the toppings of the Angry Tiki dog were so flavorful that they masked the blandness of the veggie dog, which was only detectable when I bit into it alone. Although I thought the turkey dog itself was more flavorful, I wasn't impressed as much by the toppings, which consisted of what were no doubt Mrs. T's pierogies and too many grilled onions for my taste (I removed many of them). CM preferred the turkey dog to the bratwurst dog, and the Big Ben to the Mason Dixon style slightly, but enjoyed both styles. The service at D's was friendly and efficient--our orders were placed and fulfilled promptly and with a smile. During the short time that we waited for our food, CM and I enjoyed examining the mural, which contains many real life and fictitious characters, and the monk decorations on the other wall. Although we didn't order any beer, we checked out the beer cave before leaving, and were quite impressed with the selection--now CM has a neighborhood go-to spot the next time he needs to bring a six pack to a party! With the City Dining Card, our total came to $23, which I felt was quite reasonable for the amount and quality of food received. In sum, we were very pleased with our experience at D's, and would definitely return, esp. in light of the proximity to CM's residence and the extensive beer selection.

    Amazing hot dogs. LOVE their DOM (Dog Of the Month) Its always something crazy. For September 2015 is the Greek dog. They have great burgers too. Somewhat crowded, but still so worth it.

  • Anne C.

    As the name suggests, they serve primarily hot dogs and beer. But wait - it's not just any hot dog! They have quirky names on different dogs with even more eclectic toppings. I also got their fries and don't regret a thing. They have the best fries in Regent Square, hands down. I'm tempted not to say which dog to get because I feel that the decision would weigh too heavily on whether or not I have a palette for dogs. Nonetheless, you can't go wrong (I got the Big Ben). Also a great bonus - you can grab your own beer from the beer cave in the back and chill out.

    This place is a must try. I would say it's a bar you can bring your kids to if you have any. The service is great the food is better. Me and my girlfriend got pub fires with cheese and bacon to share. I got the Angry tiki and Chili dog she got the Pot roast and Big Ben all on beef franks. The food came out in no time and with a bill of only 35$ including a beer it was a great price. They also have a massive beer cave in the back. Next time I stop in here I have to bring a group of friends so we can all try one another's food.

    Pretty danggum awesome hotdogs, beer, and anything you could possibly want to order in a bar that would immediately spike your cholesterol 50 points. Serious nachos? Check. Fries drenched in meats and cheese? Check check. It's some Blue-Collar goodness, with a little Hipster aftertaste. The hotdogs are worth the hype (yay Angry Tiki dog with pinapple and bacon!), and the beer cave is a happy place with one of the best selections in the city.

    I was really excited to try D's Six Pax and Dogs. But from the moment my friend and I walked in on a Friday at lunch time, we were kind of bummed. We sat down at the bar, and the bartender refused to even acknowledge us, let alone serve us. So we switched to the other side of the space. The service on the other side was better but a tad slow. I started with the macaroni and cheese ($3.00). It was just doctored Kraft mac and cheese, with a bit too much salt, but for the price is was reasonable and good. I ordered a Chicago dog ($5.50), and the hot dog was an all star for the most part. It was an authentic Chicago style dog, and the toppings were fantastic. My friend ordered a Big Ben hot dog, and it was pretty gross. The cheese picked up the vinegar-y taste from the coleslaw, and it made the cheese taste sour. Not appetizing at all. D's grills their hot dogs, which is normally fine. However, both my friend and my dogs came out very burnt. One of hers was literally inedible, and these hot dogs are pricey. The server did not say anything about the practically untouched hot dog and just took it off of the table. They do have some daily or lunch specials for cheaper hot dogs so check that out. The verdict? I would come back here for a Chicago dog and ask them to boil it to prevent the risk of a singed dog, and I would return for the beer cave.

    To me Pittsburg food is anything with coleslaw and fries. Case in point, different types of hot dogs with coleslaw and fries. Fries here are amazing and I really enjoyed my hot dog. They have a good selection of beer and an amazing beer cave where you can pick your own 6 pack from different brands and flavors. A must.

    Great fries. Lots of bar food -- burgers, six packs, dogs...etc. The restaurant is small and got VERY crowded. A few tables and wooden chairs and a couple of high top tables by a garage door that I imagine opened when it is not frigid cold out like tonight. It is like a beer bar without a bar. Several beers on tap...I imagine that is the reason for the crowd because it certainly isn't the food. The food is greasy Pittsburgh fare that doesn't seem really all that great. Granted, I loved the fries. But would I wait for 30 minutes for a table for really unhealthy, generally unimpressive food? Nope. Fortunately we had just beaten the crowds or I would not be writing this review. After we were seated, people poured in. Families with little kids and groups of older adults standing in the crowded doorway waiting for the opportunity to eat mediocre food. Hmmm....makes me think a new restaurant in Regent Square is in order because there is clearly a deficit.

    Met my sister here and never had been here before. Got a bacon, onion and cheddar hot dog. Amazing. I also got the D's wing dust wings and it was quite possibly the best flavor of wing I have ever had. It tasted like a bbq chip with a kick crushed up for the flavor. I highly recommend that.

    went for a late lunch with friends. I'm a new single mom with a 7 month old and my friends had a 2 year old along as well. our server was extremely attentive and incredible about the kiddos being along. he brought crayons for the toddler and was one step ahead of our needs which was amazing and unique... it's not always easy to go out with a kid in tow where you can get great patient service AND good food and beer. I had the Cuban dog (pretty terrific) and sweet potato fries. one small order could probably feed 2-3 people...good to know for next time. the beer selection was super. I've been looking for barleywine style ales in this area and most places I've tried haven't even known what I was asking for. these guys were able to help me put together a cool sampler of a few different kinds to take home and try. this was a great visit and D's will definitely be on my beer and food radar in the future. also loved the open air bistro feel for summer. the price seemed a little high for hot dogs but the dogs were really tasty and after it was all said and done, I feel like the value of the hospitality, the good food, and the atmosphere were well worth it.

    This place was really awesome, and I wish there were more places like it. Boyfriend and I and a group of friends were in Pittsburgh for the weekend, and I found D's on yelp. The hot dogs looked delicious, and my friends are real beer fans, so we thought it'd be perfect. It was better than expected. First, obviously, the beer selection is amazing. You can either order off their menu, choose a beer from their walk-in fridge, or venture back into the Beer Cave (where they've got every beer ever) and throw a bottle or too in the chiller. Five minutes later, the beer's cold and delicious. We all took advantage of this, and picked up six packs on the way out. Second, the hot dogs were really good. I definitely recommend the Angry Tiki dog. Sweet, spicy and really delicious. The only thing is they don't handle groups well. There's plenty of room, but once we'd already split up our check amongst everyone's credit card, we were told they don't usually do that for more than 6 people. The guy did it for us anyway, but it took awhile, and I'm still not really sure who got charged for what. If you're in the area, or even almost in the area, make a trip to D's. It's definitely worth it.

    The best hot dog I've had. Ever. I also have to say trying to decide which hot dog I wanted was by far one of the hardest decisions I have had to make (food-wise). Eventually, I got the chihuahua dog because it was out of the box and I wanted try something new. It comes with avocado spread, salsa, cheddar cheese, and jalapenos. The dog itself was perfectly crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside and really just the best I have had. The toppings were great and I was happy I gave it a try. My friend got the bacon and cheese dog. I was expecting bacon bit type bacon, but they were full strips of bacon that were perfectly crisp and the melted cheese was right on. I am certainly going to come back and try a new hot dog. I am very exciting to finally have a hot dog place that I know produces fantastic tasting hot dogs. I would definitely recommend you give this place a try.

  • Gary G.

    OK, this is a place to get beer and the food is secondary.However service still matters and the service on my visit today leaves a lot to be desired. First the food. Great Chicago dogs with all the fixings but so so Cuban dog with underwhelming toppings.Perhaps it was because their fryer was out but the toppings on the Cuban dog seemed to be out of a plastic pack from Giant Eagle.The beer was fine a Belgian ale, probably the best part of my experience. The first server I had did get me a second glass of beer but although I asked for a menu never got back to me to see what I wanted to order.Eventually another server did and I ordered.So if you want a beer definitely come on over and for some of the hot dogs you'll be fine but if you want consistent service forget it This is the ultimate in bro style service best suited to half loaded college students or anyone with low expectations of service at a bar and grill.

    While everyone goes here for the dogs, the pizza is not be ignored. Hand tossed crusts with a nice selection of specialty pizzas. Appetizers are good as well. Hummus is a solid choice. Not a fan of their wings. Beer selection is on point and if you can't find what you want on tap, head into the beer cave. I like that you can find a crazy variety and try new beers. Always busy, so be prepared to wait.

    I love D's! Every Tuesday, a group of us from Pitt come for the large one-topping $10 pizza night! The waiters and waitresses are always so friendly, I have never had a bad experience here. The beer cave is a must! They have such a variety of beers, that there is something for everyone! Once you make your choice, put it in one of their beer coolers to make it nice and cold. You are crazy if you don't like D's!

    D's is perfect for those not so fancy afternoons. I love sitting outside with my dog and people watching while sipping on one of their unique beers. the staff is always so helpful with suggestions on what to drink. the pizzas are decent, the salads are my favorite, and the best burger on the menu is the Texas burger.

  • Jen L.

    As if this place needs another glowing review! When I first moved to Pittsburgh, a local clued me in to the wonders of D's. She leaned forward and whispered, "....yeah 'suchandsuchbar' is alright, but if you want the BEST beer selection in Pittsburgh with the friendliest staff, go to D's Six Pax and Dogz." She proceeded to give me directions. Mind you, this was a total stranger. But I liked the mystique so obviously I jumped in my car and found D's (her directions were perfect.) Walking into the beer cave is an almost religious experience. What's this to my immediate left? Seasonal brews? Yes, I'll definitely have some of those. Trippel Belgians? Count me in. Beers brewed by monks? Of course. All the Dogfish Head and Rogue a girl could ever want? Double check. Giant bottles of Chimay? I must be dreaming. And if you thought things couldn't get any better, you're clearly not following along close enough-you get $1.00 off every bottle you take to go. Bobby and I brought a friend here last night because he said he had never been. We stocked up on pumpkin beers and they even had Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin Ale which I can never seem to find anywhere. Our friend was in awe. The only downside I can possibly think of when it comes to D's is the magical time powers that seem to exist in the beer cave. I kid you not, I've sometimes found myself in the beer cave for over 45 minutes agonizing over crafting the perfect six pack. Of course, this isn't D's fault. I'm naturally indecisive. I love this place so good.

  • Brandon F.

    "Meh" is kind of how I felt about this place, which I realize is an opinion that seems to go against the grain. I had heard about D's time and time again. Everyone talked about it like it was the greatest place in existence. I had such high expectations! I suppose maybe I was expecting too much, which led to some disappointment. A few friends and I went here on a Friday night and it was (predictably) packed. We were fairly lucky to get a table almost right away. I obviously had to acknowledge that the beer selection is impressive. If you can't find it here, you probably can't find it anywhere in Pittsburgh. I had to check out the famous "Beer Cave" which seemed to have just about everything. I think I'll make it a point to pick up some brews here next time I'm looking for something unusual or new. I wish I had more to say, but I just wasn't feeling it. My friends love it so I'm sure I'll be back, and next time I'll make it a point to try the food. Judging by some of the other reviews, that might change my perception of the place.

  • Chris H.

    D's is pretty awesome. The name is D's Six Pax & Dogs for a reason- they have a huge beer cave and a billion different hotdog combinations. The beer cave has: seasonals, local brews, imports, etc and a blast chiller thing that will chill your beer for you in seconds/minutes (like super fast). There is a hot dog list with different topping combinations, in which you can choose the type of dog you want: veggie, brat, beef hotdog, turkey dog, and even kielbasa, and put that dog into a CHIHUAHUA ( avocado, shredded cheddar, salsa, and jalapeños) or an ANGRY TIKI (Pineapple, bacon, hoison, and Double Dip sauce) or another suggested topping combination. If the suggested dogs and topping combos don't float your boat you can choose whichever toppings you like from a giant toppings list. The service is usually pretty fast and the servers are friendly and good at their jobs. The only issue is that the place is often times busy, so occasionally you might have to wait a bit to get a seat.

    D's has been hovering among my Pittsburgh bookmarks for a couple of years now, so I was happy to finally stop by for a visit and late lunch recently. After squeezing into a parallel parking spot out front, I had two things on my mind when walking in here: hotdogs and beer, both of which they have down pat. Since it was mid-afternoon, few tables were filled, but the front patio was open to allow in some fresh air during the nice day. I first looked around at their extensive beer selections; "six pax" in the rear "Beer Cave" and individual bottles in the middle cooler. I found something to my liking and grabbed a high table and menu. A "Big Ben" dog sounded appetizing (and mildly appropriate), but I ended up going with the "Mason Dixon" topped with chili and coleslaw. Knowing that one dog would not be enough, I also went with a small order of their "Pub Fries" covered in cheese and bacon. (Forgive me Father, for I have no restraint.) Holy Moley! Both the dog and fries were excellent and down right tasty. Thank God because my satisfied stomach was smacking down the guilty part of my brain that was subconsciously calculating the summation of calories shared between the meal and two bottles of liquid refreshment. Oh well. I definitely heart D's, even if my heart now hates me in return. 4.5 Stars.

    A pleasant surprise! My friend and I came here after a failed attempt at the Braddock Food truck event at the Braddock Gentleman's Brewery (or whatever it's called). The menu has so many options! There was a 30 minute wait when we showed up at 8:30. That was discouraging at first but with all the options thirty minutes was no big deal. I got the Hawaiian Hot Dog (it's not called that, it's just the one with the pineapple and bacon). It was a pretty solid choice. I also got the macaroni and cheese. I was very happy that it was $3 but I guess you get what you pay for. It did taste like it was a box of Kraft Mac and cheese. So not really original or special but definitely classic. I also ordered a hard cider. It was on draft and $8.50. I thought that was pretty pricey for a draft beer, however it's probably one of the smoothest ciders that I've had, so it may have been worth it to some degree. All and all, it was a nice choice on the fly.

    D's is the coolest. Their beer cave is truly a sight to behold. In this state of ridiculous liquor laws, it's a feat to have so many beer options in singles and make-yer-own six-paks. They have chilled choices (or a super-chiller if you want to cool something quickly) and non-chilled options. There are over 1000 varieties, and the awesome "Beer Manager" has the whole inventory all in his head! And he gives helpful recommendations. The food is good too. The wings are great, and the fries and chips are delish. I'm not a hot dog person so I can't comment on them, but the husband loves them. They're Chicago-style with Chicago-branded meat and buns. Authentic!

    Service is hit or miss. Entrees come out before apps. Burger patties are about the size of a fast food chain - thin, frozen cardboard. Dogz aren't bad.

    When I go to heaven, they will have a Sephora with D's Six Pax's Beer Cave in the back. And I will be happy. I LOVE this place! I'd love to take my beer loving father here but i'm afraid his heart would give out with excitement. If its a good brew, it lives here! I FREAKING LOVE this place. Can you tell I'm enthusiastic about it? I recommend you dine here. The food is good, I like the black and blue burger, but they have just about any kind of hotdog combination you can dream up. I really love that you can walk back into the beer cave and pick out your beer, and they offer cool chillers for it. Here's the best hike in Pittsburgh: Hike in Frick Park. take the Falls Ravine trail until you come out near the bridge. Walk across the bridge. At Ryan's Pub, turn right and walk straight ofr awhile. You'll come to D's Six Pack and Dogs. You will be READY for a beer, bc its a hike. But that is the point of hiking. Eat delicious food and drink beer. Call a friend to come pick you up and take you home. The End. In fact, its a damn shame they dont offer a gift registry. Because I would register for beer. I would. No judgement.

    The beer cave is amazing, and you get $1 off each bottle if you take out... Which means that some of them end up being cheaper than if you bought a case! WOW. The food is really good. I have been here several times, and each time, I told the server to bring me something vegetarian. I have never been disappointed!! From hotdogs, to seitan, to nachos everything here tastes great and there are tons of options. The last time I was there we were having fun upstairs playing darts and racking up a tab. The bartender was nice enough to actually stop us and point out that it had started to snow, and we should probably leave before the roads got bad... I thought that was super sweet and nice of him!!

    I love D's! My roommate and I are happy regulars at both the restaurant and the attached beer cave, and we like to drag our out-of-town friends here as well. This place is honestly one of the best things about living in Regent Square. The staff are friendly and efficient and the food is always hot and fresh. The beer is of course outstanding. What more could you want in a neighborhood bar?

  • Gary R.

    This really is a great place. It's hard to find fault with anything here! Great owner, superb bar food, and oh, the huge selection of craft beer. And I'm not talking about the massive collection in the beer cave!! The commitment to have 5 or 6 local brews (Helltown included) on tap in a rotating "local" draft corner is music to my ears. Had Helltown's Reaper Harvest Ale last night and it was fabulous. I've had quite a few local brews here as well as a selection of other crafts. I love having exciting draft beer choices! The food is really good too! Wings, dogs, veggie dogs...these aren't just your typical ballpark quality dogs. Nah, these are amazing. The buns, the all beef dog with that welcome "snap" when you bite it...yum. Plus the selection of options will keep you coming back to try more and more. The daily specials are worth watching - the 10 wings for $5 on Monday is a bargain!! Since they don't serve cheapo food or beer, the price reflects that. 2 draft beers and 2 hotdogs is close to $25. But hey, enjoy it. The crowd is cool, the atmosphere is terrific, and the beer selection is among the best in the city. I'll keep coming back. For sure!

    Seriously average food with above average prices. The waitstaff all seems to think highly of themselves. I'm wondering if a prerequisite to work here is to feel that you're better than others because you know all the Belgium beers.

  • Tara V.

    Pleasantly surprised by the extent of the selection of beer here. Also -- I'm visiting from Seattle and they have Elysian on tap! Elysian Night Owl is the best pumpkin variety I have ever had in my life. Came here with my aunt Joanne and she really couldn't believe that as a beer enthusiast I had never been here. Try the Elysian!

    This place is an old favorite. I used to live close by and would swing by for good brew and some yummy dogs. At times when I was vegetarian, there was always something just as appetizing. I also love their pizzas, especially with the whole wheat crust, which is hard to come by elsewhere. These days, my husband and I make it a date to spend an afternoon in Regent Square and finish off with a good late lunch at D's. The beer selection is amazing.

    Went here today for the first time and I couldn't be more pleased with my experience. We sat downstairs in the dining area, on the same side where they keep all their beers. We were seated immediately and our server was quick to greet us. My boyfriend and I each ordered a draft beer. He had an IPA by Sierra Nevada and I had the Boulder Shake Chocolate Porter. Both were awesome and their draft list is decent. About 15-20 craft beers on tap. We each ordered a sandwich. Their menu wasn't large but they had more than just your typical bar food, definitely more interesting items. I got a chicken sandwich named the chihuahua--chicken, avocado, cheddar cheese, salsa and jalapeños. It was amazing! Their sandwiches automatically come with chips (which I'm never a fan of) but I was able to substitute them for French fries. Their fries were amazing, they were the kind that are battered and those are my favorite (very few places around the burgh sell them like that) so this was very exciting to me. Overall the price isn't bad either which was awesome. After dinner my boyfriend and I both go my 6 packs to go.. They have an awesome selection.. Over 1,000 beers in their beer room (all beers are warm) but they do also have a cooler which has less beers but still not a bad selection. I honestly couldn't be happier with my experience.

    Beer selection- awesome. Food- ok. The wings need to be ordered extra crispy in my opinion. The D's house sauce was not good. The swissvale gold was really good. Ok service.

    As a former Regent Square resident and a current Point Breezer I can tell you that D's is a diamond in the rough. Want an excellent hotdog? How about a thousand beers to choose from? Want to mix and match some beer and take it home to enjoy later? Well, you've found the money ball. Your biggest challenge here is getting a good parking spot. But don't give in, you'll get a spot and you'll be happy you did. Don't like hotdogs you say? Well, they have delicious pizza too so whatever floats your boat you'll find it here.

  • Jeff M.

    The only place outside of Chicago that does a proper Chicago dog. I love their crispy fries. No matter how you order them, you won't be disappointed. Pub fries are our family favorite. Save yourself a few bucks and grab your own bottled beers from the beer cave. You aren't going to find a better selection of beers in the city. Sure some places might have a larger selection of beers on tap, but D's is the only place you will find 6 varieties of actual authentic French Saisons in season. Pizza is excellent and rivals any pizza only place in Pittsburgh. Super kid friendly is the icing on the cake.

    This place is pretty cool. Plenty of beer selections, including several gluten free options. I like to watch games here, and this is a good spot for larger parties (5+). The french fries are excellent and very crispy, even better with cheese and bacon.

    D's is always worth the trip, whether you're stopping by for some food or heading straight to the beer cave to build your own six pack. Maybe it attracts a certain kind of younger crowd, but it is truly a no-frills kind of place and the people working there could not be more friendly and accommodating. The first time I came here our server was super chill and chatty with us as well as patient while we took our time figuring out how many add-ons to pile on top of our food despite the busy atmosphere of the place. The food is cheap and hits the spot, for meat eaters and vegetarians alike. I will say their seitan wings were particularly crunchy/dry and not altogether satisfying shared between people, but the flavors were great. But let's be real, you're probably coming here for the dogs. It's cool, I do too. And you will probably want to add avocado to whatever it is you're getting, because avocado is for winners, just like the ocean. One night, during some seriously biblical amounts of rain and lightning, the power went out temporarily and workers and patrons alike kept on going like it was -no big deal-, demonstrating that the strength of D's can weather any storm.

    Last night was my first time at D's. The beer cave was amazing! I'm not a fan of beer but can appreciate a vast selection. I went straight for the cider. The lively energy of this place was incontestable. No frills, down-to-earth place where you can kick it back with a beer (or in my case a cider) and enjoy company with friends. It was a perfect ending to our movie night at the Regent Square Theater. With smiles planted on our faces after watching a dark comedy, going to D's only extended our happy mood. Before leaving I went back to the beer cave for more cider. Good stuff, good stuff!

    I've been trying to find new and different restaurants recently, and this is one I found: About the place: - It's small - It's packed and crowded. - Due it's size, they seats near the walls are all awkward and can't be comfortable. - I wouldn't recommend it for big parties unless you organized it with the place ahead of time. - There is free parking outside, but you are going to have trouble finding a space The food: - NOTHING COMES WITH THE HOT DOGS AND MEALS COME WITH CHIPS. The fries cost more to get as a side. Who ever heard of fries with your burger/dog? Um, apparently everyone except this place. - I got the chili cheese dog, the mac and cheese dog and the chili cheese fries. - The chili cheese fries are very very good and are some of the best I've had. If you like long fries with breading, you'll like these. The large size is indeed a large size and is enough for 2-3 people. - You get one hot dog, and with toppings on it, it will cost $6.50. I get two dogs with toppings at the local Sunoco for $2.22. I could also buy two packs of hot dogs and probably buns from a cheap place for $6.50, so it's not the cheapest. - The hot dog buns are good and have some green or black seeds on it. The hot dogs are just typical size and aren't super fat or foot longs. The staff: - They are overworked but they are nice. - One of the girls was cooking and had no hair cover, so I could easily see hair going in food. Hope they fix that. Suggestions for D's: - Please sell curly fries or pretzels! - Stop being cheap. Give fries with your burger/dog and GIVE ME A SIDE WITH MY DOG. - Try to get a bigger place - Lower the prices for hot dogs or give two hot dogs. They have to be making near $6 profit on a $6.50 dog. Would I go back? Definitely.

    D's is a typical bar food type of place. It's size makes it cozy and in general it has a nice, happy ambience. The food is nothing spectacular but not bad as well - even though the hot dogs are pretty good. It has a large selection of drafts and there is also a back "room" where you can buy pretty much any beer that exists either for taking it to your home or for having it with your dinner. The service was fast and helpful. I am sure I will be visiting this place again in the future but just do not expect something spectacular.

    D's is one of our favorite places in Pittsburgh. It's nice to have an easy, fun, casual place to get some good eats and a nice beer. As a vegetarian who still likes to pretend to eat meat, I so appreciate their multiple veggie options. Nearly any item on the menu can be made in a vegetarian version. Their special dogs (dog of the month) are usually a lot of fun. My favorite was the Thanksgiving dog back in November, with corn, mashed potatoes, cranberry, and stuffing. It was amazing! I came twice to have one in November. Their beer list has to be the best I've seen in the city. Lots of great stuff on tap and a huge bottle room. Since we like to bring our toddler to dine with us, I'm always so happy that they are so friendly and accommodating with kids. He loves their mac and cheese and grilled cheese sandwiches, though I think he likes their crayons more. For a fun family dinner, a good beer, watching a game, getting together with friends, or just experimenting with a new Belgian brew, I strongly recommend D's.

    I hadn't been to D's in years so when my friend and I took a hike through Frick Park and decided to stop by D's to grab some grub I was anxious to see if my memory of my past experience was on point years later. Well it was - great atmosphere, staff and food. I had the Chicago Hot Dog with a handful of fries. Perfect amount of food and I couldn't even finish the fries...and they were some goooood fries! I got my first pumpkin beer of the season from their beer cave and while I can't remember the brewery it was exactly what I wanted on a cool and crisp day after a hike. This is a great spot for some craft beers and bar type food.

    D'z is hands down my favorite go to spot for good eats. I love their wings and their hot dogs. Everytime I go there i am greeted with fun young employees ready to serve or offer suggestions about their latest brews. Their draft list changes constantly so there's no sense in trying to remember which beer you had there the week before. Plus their beer cave is great with hundreds of different bottles to choose from all listed by the region from which they came. They also have a small cooler with about 150 different varieties of beer that are already chilled for your liking. Even if you get a warm beer, they have this ice cold dunk tank to put your bottle in that gets it nice and chilly for you in just a few minutes. That by far is my favorite aspect of D'z. If you choose to take beer home with you they also have a discount of $1.00 per bottle of every beer you take with you(excluding the pre-made six packs). So sometimes we get a six pack of variety beers at a lower cost than paying for them individually. On to the food: I love their wings and hot dogs and my masterful veggie burger creation. We always order the BBQ sauce because it taste so gooooood and their wings are nice and crispy and hot and smothered in plenty of sauce that you will be licking your fingers. We've tried almost all their dogs expect 2 and my favorite is the mac and cheese dog(w/ ketchup) and the chihuahua dog which is avocado, shredded cheddar cheese and jalapenos, my fiance enjoys a classic Chicago dog. The have delicious sauerkraut that i enjoy as well so i usually get a side for only 99 cents. Can't beat that price. Now when it comes to the veggie burger i love the way it taste. I do it up real nice by getting that black n blue topping which is blue cheese and cajun seasoning. I add bacon, onion, mushrooms, avocado, tomato, lettuce and their spicy mayo/double dip sauce. It is hands down the best burger i've ordered in a loooong time. If your looking for a fun hangout spot for you and your buddies or even a tasty treat for the kids then D'z is where it's at!!! It gives you the feeling of just a fun place to be on the weekend or even the weekdays. Due to an unfortunate circumstance of eating at a different hotdog shop during restaurant week, my fiance would have proposed to me at D'z. We truly regret not waiting to go here but time was of the essence. D'z you truly are my favorite spot to be any day at any time and you will always be the place i wish i would have been proposed to at!!!!!!!!!!

    This place is great! As a vegan and not a huge fan of beer, I wasn't expecting much for me there from D's name...but the service, food, and atmosphere was all so, so good! I was excited to try their cauliflower wings, but it turned out that they have now switched over to seitan. Even so, the two different orders my friends and I shared were both very tasty, although very fried and crunchy, compared to the meatier seitan wings served up elsewhere in Pittsburgh. Their vegan dog on a poppy seed bun comes with unlimited toppings, for just 4.99! They somehow managed to get avocado, grilled onions, tomato, pickle spears, brown mustard, and banana peppers stacked into mine, and it was delicious and filling. I'd love to see a homemade vegan dog instead of using Yve's, but the toppings deal makes it worth it! Definitely will be back for more :)

    For my 200th review, I'm going to write a review for D's Six Pax & Dogs, which couples a review I just wrote for The Loft- a bar just upstairs from here owned by the same people. I've been to D's a couple of times with groups of friends, and this is quite a fun and neighborhoody venue with good food (amazing veggie dogs!) and great beer. The owners pride themselves in being a little more family friendly, and it seems that this is true from the crowds I have always seen here. But fear not fellow 20 single somethings: this place can be for you too! There is ample room at the bar to chill with good beers to watch the game, and also bring a group of friends to one of the adjoining tables. If I lived over in the Regent Square/Wilkinsburg area, I would stop in here more often. However, it has become a cool bar that I frequent before/after a movie at the Regent Square Theater. Cheers!

    D's has long been a stand-by for a good veggie hotdog and a nice beer selection for me. It has reasonable bar food and a reasonably priced wide selection of beer. My meat-eating friends seem to really like the wings and various meat hotdogs and burgers. It is always very crowded during peak dinner times, even early in the week in my experience. Extpect a long wait on weekends for sure! D's is a comfortable place to go for me and attracts a young-ish crowd but not to young. The atmosphere is lively and casual. Service can be slow but the servers are always friendly. Overall this is a good casual food place. The walk-in beer cooler and additional beer selection are a draw as well. They do have some vegetarian options as well, which I always appreciate.

    I am a fan of this place. I love the dogs, of course. I love the beers, of course. I love the Beer Cave the most. I'm not sure if it's the largest collection of bottles, but it's pretty impressive nonetheless. I just wish that the beers I wanted had the prices labeled. I swear, every one I grabbed for had price tags on the beers surrounding it but not on the one I wanted. Anyway, the dogs are tender and juicy. Even the veggie dogs are pretty convincingly "dog-like." The fries are plentiful and pretty damn good. Greasy and salty (but not too much of either) and a perfect accompaniment to beers and hot dogs. The servers are friendly and helpful with the menu. Pros: great beer selection, wonderful food, friendly staff Cons: I was here after brunch to catch the hockey game and they had NCAA basketball on instead; not a big deal, but enough to be annoying

    Was at D's this afternoon! I was so excited to find real vienna Hot Dogs in Pittsburgh since I am a born and raised Chicago guy. They were good dogs, had mine Chicago Style of course! Not sure it was Pollmans Mustard. It the buns had poppy seeds! A great place with plenty of atmosphere!

  • Jennifer G.

    I'm in love. I came from a place where there were hot dog stands all over the place and found that, in general, Pittsburgh is lacking in that area. Craving a hot dog, I found D's on Yelp and figured I would give it a try. I was intrigued by the specials menu so I started with an order of wings and Buffalo wing hummus. This Buffalo girl was pleased. The wings were tasty and done perfectly. And the hummus was so good I wanted to ask for the recipe. The flavor combinations of the hot dogs were crazy. Who would ever think of putting pineapples and bacon on a hot dog? Well, I'm glad they did. It was an interesting mix of flavors and was very satisfying. If I hadn't also tried the wings and hummus, I would have tried at least two other hot dog creations. Aside from the creations on the menu, you are also able to customize your own creation. There is also a "beer cave" that I can't review since I didn't try any, but it looks impressive. I eagerly await my next trip to D's!

    This place is known for hotdogs and beers. I had the special of the day pulled pork dog. It's basically hotdog topped with pickle, cole slaw, and pulled pork. You can add additional toppings free of charge and as many as you like! I had avocado and mushrooms added to my hotdog. They have a lot of toppings to choose from. The price is very reasonable at about $5 and they have the veggie dog option, which is a plus. All these add on made the hotdog very good and their fries were good too.

    Now that we do not live in Pittsburgh; D's is a must go to when we are back in town. Their main specialty is beer and that is what I always have so I can not speak to any liquor or wine options. The beer selection is awesome. They have over 1000 different kinds of beer. You just have to make your selection and they will open it for you at your table. You can also create your own mix and match 6 pack to carry out. Now on to the food. If you get french fries - I am warning you, the portion is very large. The ones with bacon and cheese are a great. We tried both the wet and dry wings and were happy with both. Now the reason we came here; the hot dogs. And oh are they amazing. They have hot dogs combinations on the menu, but you can also create any combination that you want. I am a HUGE fan of the Chicago Dog - they do it right!!! On a side note - if you like Root Beer, they have a great root beer on draft. They do offer a children's menu as well and it is completely fine for children in the middle of the day. You see tons of families. The staff has always been very friendly and helpful. They know their beer and food very well! If you have never been here; I recommend it.

    This was another place that came highly recommended while we were in town and this place also didn't not disappoint! The food was good. The dogs were tasty and they had some interesting recipes but let's cut to the chase.... the beer selection is massive! Being from Michigan, we are spoiled with craft beers from our fine state, but with that comes the desire to try other state's craft beer selection and D's had a solid selection of PA brews. For one, the beer cooler had a good sized selection, but it's all about the hundreds of warm beers they have in the back of the restaurant. They have pretty much anything you want back there and it doesn't' matter that it's warm because they have a beer chiller where you can put your beers in there until optimal temperature. It only takes about 7 minutes and they are good to go as well. Needless to say, this is another recommendation that I will pass on to all friends heading to Pittsburgh. I'll spare the beer reviews as there's another app for that.

    I have to echo the sentiments of others on the service here...it is always friendly and quick (but not suspiciously so). Plenty of beers to choose from on tap, in the cooler and back room with some awesome wine selections to boot. The hot valentine, mac n cheese and chihuahua dogs are my favorites and I could bathe in the avocado spread that tops those immaculate veggie pub style fries.

    D's Six Pax & Dogz is a legend in the east end. I have eaten here once or twice and gotten takeout from here once. It's tasty, and the beer selection is impressive, but the experience hadn't quite knocked my socks off until last night. My husband ordered some to-go food to eat while we were at the nearby The Loft bar. He ordered the Mac'N Cheese hot dog with Fries. The hot dog was incredible! The mac and cheese was so delicious that I asked one of The Loft's bartenders for a fork to finish off the 1/2 cup of mac and cheese that had fallen off the bun and was laying sadly in the styrofoam box. I wasn't wasting a bite of that deliciousness. The fries were really tasty, too -- super crispy and perfectly seasoned. Based on my overall experience at D's, I still rate this place 3 stars. However, if I have a few more of the Mac'N Cheese hot dog and Fries combinations, I may be quickly updating my review!

    Came here for lunch after a long day on the road It's a beer and bar place. They have a variety of beer, they have a room all the way in the back with lots of different beer and a separate room displaying other kinds of beer. They also have outdoor seating. It's like 2 shops next to each other separated by a hall way. I didn't even know there was a spot next door until I went to the restroom. The fries are good. They offer pizza and other goodies too. They have many types of different types of dogs. I had the veggie red alert which is spicy. They have 3 kinds of hot dogs so it caters even to the vegetarian. Regular dog, beef dog and veggie dog. You have unlimited toppings - mushrooms, onions, creamy avocado etc. The dog came in this little boat sized paper tray. I find it very hard to eat because all of the toppings would fall off to the table, but they do have paper towels for you to put underneath if you want to do this so you can eat whatever falls off. The veggie dog tasted like the real thing. They also have dogs of the day. Quite an interesting place but worth the visit in a little town.

    When owners name a restaurant like this take the hint! They didn't name this place Six Pax & Hummus! Come here for beer and dogs. There are other things on the menu but the stars of the show are in the name. So let's talk dogs first. Each one is going to cost you $4-$5 and they are large, delicious and messy. You definitely want to be among friends when you eat one of these bad boys and have plenty of napkins. If you are only eating dogs, many folks order two. Every topping imaginable is available. Another popular choice is one dog and excellent fries. Add a craft beer or two and you have one heck of a fine casual meal. Speaking of craft beers, the selection here is excellent. I appreciate that the names are up on an easy to read board that includes the ABV%. If you are new to craft beers, many of them are very strong. Let's say you normally drink three or four Coors Lights and now you are discovering the pleasure of Delirium Noel. It's a 10% beer and if you drink three or four you are in for a big surprise! In the interest of safe driving for everyone, be aware of the ABV%. So the food is great and the beer is excellent and I've found the service to also be right on. These folks are extremely popular so at peak times it's mobbed. Do yourself a favor and show up off peak and you'll eat and drink much more quickly.

    While I'm not much of a beer fan, I appreciate that this place would appeal to both the beer snob and the casual drinker. Enormous selection of beers in the Cave as well as on tap. They have Arsenal Cider, which makes me very happy (although I wish they carried the Bone-Dry). The hot dogs and fries are amazing. I had an Angry Tiki. It sounded like an odd combination - pineapple, hoisin sauce, and bacon on a hot dog - but it was delicious. The only thing I might change next time is asking for a side of Sriracha (would have put this hot dog over the top). It's cheap, it's a good set-up for going with a group, and I will definitely take any of my beer-loving friends here.

    If you're like me, you probably enjoy watching people eat hot dogs and will want to make D's a destination when hanging in the 'burgh. What? I can't be the only one. Seriously? Fine. Then excuuuUUUuuuse me. I'll rephrase for the supposed masses. If you enjoy eating hot dogs, you'll want to make D's a destination when hanging in the 'burgh. It's a great place to go and get some tubed meat in a variety of different mix and match combinations and also a great place to meet new people... perhaps you'll even meet someone who shares your love of you eating hot dogs and you can shower them with many moments of which they can watch you eat your beloved wieners and y'all can live happily ever after. No? Ugh, fine. Then just eat the damn hot dog all by your lonesome. See if I care. I came in with a group of friends for a semi-liquid lunch and though it was the beer cave that brought us in, I was secretly more excited about watching my friends eat hot dogs. You see, I'd been feeling super sick for the entire duration on my Pittsburgh road trip. I think it was a bad Cholera strain. Anyway, my party of six allowed me to sleep in extra late while they wandered around some graveyard by our hotel with scones until I was all puked out and ready see what the light of day looks like. I was feeling bummed that I had to hibernate through my original morning plan of going to the zoo, but the thought getting to see my pals suck down chili dogs all Jack & Diane style really helped lift my spirits. We walked in, sat down and I was immediately excited to be sitting across from their epic celebrity mural. It's like a pop-culture/history 'Where's Waldo', only there's no Waldo, and instead Gandalf, Wolverine, John Candy, and more. I spent the entire time between ordering and the food coming out staring at the wall and finding new peeps. My only gripe on the artwork is that the mural was seriously lacking in Bill Murray biz-nasty, so for that I have to subtract a star. Okay, no. I'm only (half) joking about the star thing. I'm actually deducting the star because their veggie dog was pretty damn terrible. I mean, the toppings (I got the chihuahua with cheese and jalapenos) were fine, but I think I've microwaved dogs that tasted better than theirs. It was so freaking rubbery and tough and chewy... like bad calamari or trying to chew a whole pack of rock hard Bazooka Joe at once. My jaw was tired from trying to force my tearing teeth into that little soy sausage but the worst part is that I had to devote so much extra time to eating my stupid wiener that I missed being able to watch my friends eat their hot dogs. Boo-urns. Next time, I'll skip the veggie dog and go with a wrap or pizza or burger or something that'll allow for more wiener-peeping. On the other hand, the veggie pub fries were damn good and something I resented having to offer to share them with my friends... but I did offer because I felt like it would detract from them getting 'weirded out' at my wanting to gawk at them like I bought a ticket to watch them eat hot dogs... even though that wishful thought didn't pan out anyway thanks to the lackluster veg-dog I ended up with. Their beer selection was stellar and their beer cave in back was a fun shopping experience and great place to find a few rarities. They actually had the Rogue Voodoo Doughnut bombers that you can hardly ever find. Unfortunately, my sickness impaired me from imbibing and I actually spent the latter half of the time there barfing in the bathroom (not to the fault of D's) while my friends shopped for a bevy of beer in the cave. Also worth mentioning is how friendly everyone here was. Lots of helpful staff members and even the other ladies in the bathroom who were concerned with my hurling to the point where they wouldn't leave me alone and I had to lie and say that it was no big deal, I was in my first trimester and the morning sickness was getting the best of me. Very nice people those Pittsburgh folk are.

    Great place for bar food. Good draft list and my veggie hot dog was pretty tasty. The fries were excellent. The place is very casual and pretty crowded on the weekends.

    A crowded, yet cozy place to get a great dog. The beer cave is impressive, and the rotating drafts have something for everyone. I had the pulled pork dog which had just the right amount of hot dog, pulled pork, and sauerkraut. The fries were well fried and not oily or overly crispy. The bar area was well kept and clean, and I enjoyed the first dog so much I had to get another. If you can find a spot to sit, you won't be disappointed.

    My three stars are for the decor, wow so much to see! There was a giant mural on the wall to the left of our table with just about every iconic figure from Kermit the Frog, to Einstein really it was a sight to see. My little sister, little bro and I had a blast playing where's Waldo, while we waited for our order's to be taken. The decor and wall murals were about the most interesting thing about our dining experience. For a meal for 3 people I spent $50 ouch that's a little high for a hotdog shop and something I wasn't expecting such a high bill. The kiddies did enjoy their meals, we got cheese and chili fries, a mason Dixon dog, a red alert dog, two beef dogs with mustard and ketchup, two drafts of pumpkin ale(for me) and a Philly cheese steak. The dogs are bigger than average, but the chili tasted like your standard chili from a can, I was hoping that with the price tag of $5.00 a dog the chili would have more character. My little bro proclaimed at the end of his meal, "I'm full, I've never been full off of two hotdogs!" I'll do anything to put a smile on kids face, even though the food fell flat, the restaurant was fun and we smiled laughed and jokes through a rather mediocre meal.

    I thought D's was beer mecca of Western PA until i recently discovered House Of A Thousand Beers. The latter is a bit of a drive, but you won't see anything like it in the area. That being said, I stopped in Ds today and i must say the cave is slowly but surely going down hill. They use to have countless hard to find beers, Ottos, etc. Hardly saw any of that today. And what specialty beers they do have costs an arm and a leg, and can be found for cheaper elsewhere. For example, $14 for a 12 oz bottle of Wulver and $25 for a bottle of Angel Share! Whoever is actually subjecting themselves to those outrageous prices are literally getting robbed. You can find a $25 four pack of Wulver and a $10 single of Angel Share at Giant Eagle.. In fact, you can find most of the beers in the cave at Giant Eagle at a much lower price... Shop smart and mix and match a sixer at Giant Eagle for half the price.

    D's is a great place to drink to your heart's content with any darn beer you please! They have just about any beer your little mug could possibly conjure up. The service is quick, not overly friendly but they get the job done- what you expect from a pub type atmosphere. A great after-work unwind.

    The food is always sort of room temperature, but it's delicious! There's a cave. Of beer. There's always a longish wait to get a seat, but I can say, they do their best to accommodate. My first time here, we had a large group and failed to call ahead, yet they found somewhere to put us and took good care. This area of town is adorable, and I'm looking forward to heading out in the spring time and enjoying some hot dogs in the warm air!

    Over-hyped food, rude service, don't care about their customers. What happens when the owner values money over "being there" to oversee the business. I'm a local and have been going to D's since they opened...but that doesn't matter any more....with the exception of Eli, the bartenders are generally rude. Food is sub-par...seems the busier they are, the worse the food is. What a shame. It used to be my "go to" place in the 'Square, where I would take out-of -towners or go after a mountain bike ride in Frick. Despite the numbers of great beers, I can't justify giving my money to a place that doesn't care about their customers.

    I wanted to scout out Regent Square as I'm fairly new to the area and it was recomended by someone who lives there and really talked it up. So, I parked and started walking, looking for a lunch spot. I spied D's Sixpax & Dogz I think because of it's open air concept. the tables weren't outside but inside next to the window and I noticed there was no glass on said window. Yay! Let's head inside to nosh and get a nice breeze. It has a nice atmosphere -- a nice bar pub and enough people dining to get the feeling it's a happening place. I have the feeling dogs are the popular item based on the name of the place but I'm really not a hotdog fan except at sporting events so I opted for the Black 'n Blue Burger smothered with bleu cheese and cajun seasoning. It comes with homestyle chips and I added an order of coleslaw. Wonderful burger -- big, moist and tasty! Definitely hit the spot (multiple spots, actually). Very satisfying lunch. Side bonus for me -- happened to hear music from a local band from Denver (former homestead) while dining. Made me homesick.

    I absolutely love D's with all of my heart. If you're looking for a plain dog and fries (boring) they have what you want. If you're looking for a Mac n cheese dog or one with bacon and pineapple with sriracha and a side of chili cheese fries, they've got you covered too. Add in an enormous draft selection, a beer cave 1000 beers deep, and just the right game always on, and you've got my choice for a Saturday evening. Not to mention pizza for days, innovative burgers that'll blow your socks off, and CORNDOGS. Just go here be happy.

  • Anneke S.

    Yum! I think Ive been here three times since moving to PGH, Fav dogs: Chihuahua , Brat, and Chicago style dog. Never tried other entrees but their fries are nice and crispy. They have plenty of Belgian beers to choose from a bonus in my beer book. Beers: usually a good variety on tap plus tons of variety if you need to one stop shop and pick some six packs up in the back. Warning though if it is a busy summer evening you can wait up to one hour for your dog I think this is because they have tiny kitchen behind the bar. So if you're super hungry go early or later or fill up on their beer first. Also this doesn't really bother me i still ate my food but the guy cooking the food didn't wear gloves and did touch the food with his bare hands often. If you're OCD maybe just get a beer or don't sit at the bar where you can see this. Don't worry he didn't pick anything up off the floor and put it back on plates, i checked. :)

  • Bill T.

    It was either Mother Theresa or the Baha Men who said "Who let the dogs out?" and I must say, I was glad someone let my bacon cheddar dog out of the kitchen and into my stomach. Dee-licious! Stopped in here before seeing a movie at the Regent Square Theater for some beers, dogs and chili cheese fries. I had two IPAs that were good and reasonably priced. I couldn't finish the fries so I took them with me to the movie theater and the lady didn't mind that I brought them in. I finished them fairly quickly once the movie started (I was seeing the Swedish version of "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" so this was a while ago.) Also, since I was just visiting town, I didn't have a car and I rode the bus there all the way by myself! So the point is, you can eat here and get a great dog and good beer, and you can also take the bus here and then see a movie.

    There's no wrong way to eat a hot dog. Especially if it's topped with cheese, fries and coleslaw. Imagine if you will me sitting there and a myriad of punctuation marks pop up over my head as if I were in a cartoon. My puzzlement showing because I have no sure shot way of how to accomplish eating this masterfully prepared awesomeness just sat down in front of me. Or maybe it was because I wasn't sure I wanted to attack my Big Ben first or the pub fries I decided to order on the side. My mind was buzzing...or maybe that could have been the raspberry ale I chosen from the beer cave prior to me sitting down. To say this hot dog is good is an insult to D's. You better be prepared to say this hot dog is delicious, out of this world, life altering.......and maybe even orgasmic :O The mixture of the poppy seed bun, coleslaw, fries, cheese, and beefy goodness....heaven. Pub fries, pub fries, oi, Oi, OI! Some of the best fried up taters I've ever had. And to put some cheesy goodness on there was amazing. But the best part was the cooked oh so right bacon that kind of melted in your mouth. Sounds salty, no? That's what the ranch is for. I have no idea why I waited so long to try this place out, I should be shunned for this. If you are to shun me, shun me back to the beer cave, there are still several other beers I would love to try. The wait staff kind of remind you of worker bees. Always in motion, always doing something, and very attentive. In all honesty, I really wish I could give this place more than five stars.

  • Stacy M.

    Love this place! Not only do they have a wonderful beer selection, they have great veggie dogs! Make sure you visit the "beer cave". My beer-enthusiast friends from the DC area visit D's with every visit to the Burgh. If they are busy, make sure your name gets put on the list after speaking with the front counter or you may be sitting there for some time.

  • Jen M.

    This is clearly not a place to come for a healthful salad. As long as you can accept that and are in the mood for junk food concoctions taken to a new level (aka fried fries (yes they're double fried and extra crispy) topped with "pub cheese" and bacon and dipped in ranch) or one of their many "unique" dog toppings (such as the special Carolina Dog that was topped with pulled pork and coleslaw.) This is also one of the few places where any beer snob will feel happy and non-beer snobs can also enjoy a nice bottle of Lindeman's or the likes. The place is especially bumpin' during sporting events, so either come early or be prepared to wait for a table if the big game is going on.

    i really like this place and if i were in squirrel hill more often, i'd definitely visit more. there is only one reason i gave it 4 instead of 5 stars, but i'll get to that in a minute. the first i had heard of d's was their six pack shop. they have a large selection of room-temp, cold, domestic, craft, import, normal-size, giant bottles that you can make your own 6 pack with. this was the first place i had ever been to with those kind of options, but now i realize (here's why one star is taken off) the prices for 6 packs are not nearly as wonderful as the selection. now, obviously, with mixed bottles, the price will go up, especially if you have expensive kinds in there. but it seems they charge full price per bottle, which is a pretty lousy deal in the end. but prices for eat/drink-in are totally acceptable! in fact, i don't believe i had ever eaten at d's until a recent yelp event. their hot dogz are FANTASTIC and i only had a beef dog with sauerkraut, not exactly anything fancy. i also got to sample their hummus and dry-rub bbq wings, both of which were also super tasty. the service is always really friendly here too. there's plenty of room to sit down (bar, table, "loft" upstairs with a bar and a few tables). and there's even darts upstairs, too. d's is definitely worth checking out and if you've never seen the 6-pack "cave", at least take a browse, buy one if you're feeling spendy or simply don't have a place like this anywhere near you.

    I absolutely loved this place. First off, I love Regent Square. It's the cutest place, and this is the perfect place for a night out or even to get beer for a night in. My boyfriend is obsessed with the create your own six pack from the beer cave. We ate here on a friday and the place was packed but we got sat right away and our food came out fast. Amazing specialty hummus of the day ( i think it was chipotle ranch) and great sandwiches. The portions are huge and you won't leave hungry.

  • Nicole Y.

    Any place that has a walk-in fridge full of beer gets my vote. Go visit the beer cave! D's is one of those places I need to go to every time I'm back in town visiting family. I usually go for a burger or wings (seriously I need to find good wings in LA...) and beer. The food is always tasty and the service is excellent. Regent Square is a really cute little area that has a ton of great bars and restaurants. Highly recommended.

    D's is named perfectly. They have great hot dogs, loaded with all kinds of fun toppings. They have a beer cave, filled with beers from all over the world. They also have delicious pizza and fries. So if you are in the mood for bar food, this is the place for you!!

  • Morgan D.

    Sometimes the service here is hit or miss...they can get pretty busy. It can also get pretty crowded. But the food is good and the atmosphere is fun and laid back. And can you beat a room filled with beer? Can you beat mix and match six packs? Nope. 35 cent wing night, yum. Crazy deep fried, bacon covered hot dogs, yum. I will say though that I could not go here while I was pregnant...you can smell the delicious beer in the air and the Beer Cave taunted me mercilessly with that which I could not indulge...sigh. That was a tough nine months. Things I don't like so much...tables too close together and too small. The macaroni and cheese is bland, although you can't ask much for two bucks. There is nothing on their website right now other than the menu. Servers can be a bit brusque or forgetful and not refill your drinks without asking, but it kind of goes with the atmosphere I suppose. All in all as a Regent Square resident this is our go-to place to hang out and bring friends and visitors.

    Beer and Dogs. This isn't your ballgame 7 dollar Miller Lite and generic hotdog either. This is 7 dollar Chimay and a loaded Chicago style dog heaven. A lengthy review of a place that relies entirely on beer and hot dogs would be redundant, so I'll keep this short. Great atmosphere, Decent enough staff, Fair prices, BEST beer list anywhere I've ever been! If they don't have something you want on draft chances are you can find it in their beer cave. And the hot dogs and fries are always atop the City's Best. If that isn't enough to get you stop by D's then you're missing the point and probably shouldn't anyhow.

  • Denicia T.

    Wonderful place for a great casual meal! Their Beer Cave and excellent make your own 6-pack/draft beer selection are well known. As someone who was not able to drink I was equally impressed by their delicious rootbeer also on draft. We had the Vegetarian Pub Fries to start, which was a large helping of french fries smothered in cheese and avocado with a side of ranch. I had the Chihuahua hot dog with a veggie hot dog and added grilled onions and my partner had a specialty Octoberfest hot dog. Both were large and delicious. We did not have to wait long for a Friday night and the service was excellent. The space tends to be crowded so this is not the place to go for a quiet fancy dinner, but the food and drinks were excellent and we will definitely be back.

    This is a beer lover's dream and one of my favorite spots in Regent Square. Great place to go to watch a game. It is also kid friendly as almost every time I am visiting this place there are families with young children enjoying themselves. The biggest decision is to pick a beer off the draft list which always has a great selection or pick one from in the beer cave. I usually try a draft and then head into the chilled beer cave. There is also a larger section of single beers for purchase in the back that are not cold. If you want to drink them while at the restaurant they have a chiller-so cool!! My past visit I was impressed by the large selection of pumpkin beers. I tried a bottle called Baked by Lancaster Brewing-tastes just like pumpkin pie!! To go with it I ventured from my usual Chicago dog and ordered the Angry Tikki-pineapple, bacon and special cheesy, sweet and spicy combo mixture of sauce. I was not disappointed and a great choice. The poppy seed buns they serve the dogs on are the best!

    What is there to say about D's that has not been said? It's a fixture. The food is remarkably good for pub food and the beer cave is a fun "thing". The waitstaff are usually very good and parking in regent square isn't hard to find. I also have found the bathrooms pretty damn clean for a bar whenever I need to pee. I hope D's is with us for decades to come.

    Great hot dogs. Great beers on tap. I always fill up on way too much beer and way too much food when I'm here because it's all so good. I would recommend anything on the menu. And who wouldn't love the Beer Cave? They have an amazing selection of beers to go. It can sometimes be overwhelming. But I like having so many choices. The wait staff is always friendly and helpful. Check it out!

    Was in town for a recent sporting event and read good things about Ds. A bit off the beaten path, but an easy bus ride from my Oakland hotel (and bus originates from Downtown, so should be easy ride from there, too). Ds did not disappoint: creative craft beer list of 25+ taps, plus hundreds of bottles in the Beer Cave that you can have onsite or take to-go, and some of the best dogs I've ever had. Was there on a Friday, so got the Scorpion (cheddar jalapeno kielbasi) & fries deal for $5.50--excellent. Also tried the very good Ds Brat (cheesy bratwurst) & fries (same price), and they do a terrific version of the Chicago Dog. There are also 20+ toppings options if you want to DIY. Nice, friendly service from the guys behind the bar/in the kitchen made this a fine time. Next time I'm in PGH, Ds will be at the top of my list to visit. Can't wait to try their other dogs and whatever they have on tap (or in the Cave). P.S. There is also sit-down service in a room between the bar and Cave that seemed more family-friendly. I noticed several tables had pizzas and burgers, so I assume those are decent, too.

  • Laura M.

    I love this place. My fiance and I moved to the Regent Square area in May and we've been to D's multiple times in the three or so months since. The food is good--fairly typical bar fare--but it's the beer that keeps bringing us back. Their selection is huge (see: beer cave) and I've had some amazing beers that I didn't know even existed. The employees really know their stuff and will help you pick a beer if you don't know what you want. My fiancee is not a huge beer fan but the bartenders/waitstaff have been successful in finding him something he likes. They also have at least three gluten-free beers for those with gluten sensitivities. The atmosphere is not too loud or crazy and is a nice place to go if you want to be able to hear your companions. The sad part is that D's closes fairly early--the bar closes at 11 on Sunday-Wednesday and midnight on Thursday-Saturday. The kitchen closes an hour before the bar.

    Go to the Beer Cave! For me to give a five star review, I have to walk out of the place saying, "That place is really cool." I had a bottled microbrew, a chili coleslaw hot dog, and a side of fries for under $10. It was really good.

  • Darren W.

    D's famous, expansive Beer Cave brought us here by necessity being that Kay and I were throwing a housewarming party the next day and required some alcohol for our guests. We didn't walk out with any booze thanks to an honest employee who directed us to a cheaper beer distributor down the street, but dine on some fabulous franks we did. Hey, we had enough cooking to do in the morning, and since D's serves food... Resisting the urge to destroy burgers wherever I see them listed, I opted to take on a duo of dogs as did Kay: A Chicago and a Bacon Cheddar. Kay stayed true to her Southern roots and went for a Mason Dixon (a slaw 'n chili dawg) and a Mac 'n Cheese (yup its on there), neither of which I got to try. The Chicago is just that; relish, onions, pickles, tomatoes, sport peppers, yellow mustard, and celery salt on my choice of a Vienna All-Beef frank, all of it contained in a mattress of a poppyseed bun. If THIS was an "authentic" Chi-town style hot dog, then Chicagoans are more blessed than they know. What I couldn't fathom was not only how the folks in the kitchen got all of the components inside a bun but also how they did it in such a picturesque manner. It was so aesthetic, I was afraid to munch on it. From there, I got down 'n dirty with the Bacon and Cheddar and found that the molten orange goo almost usurped the beefy, salty flavors of the grade-A proteins, taking the bread with it down to the bottom of a sea of cheese Primus would avoid. Coming back to Chicago from Yuba City (I kid my uncle's hometown), I found that this regional take came off more like a sandwich, transcending its genre so to speak. Fresh tomato cuts stood where ketchup should not. Sport peppers livened up the affair like GG Allin. A literally neon-green freakshow of a relish acted as a feather boa as well as a sugared counterweight to the briny proceedings. Dill pickles added more sass and bite as well as chill, and the yellow mustard/onion tandem had a bit to say about tradition. Archetypal, the majestic franks within each sheath of bread, but particularly the Chicago, were mountains above ballpark or arena fare. The flavors of slain, ground, smoked, grilled bovine were ALL you tasted upon breakage of the natural casings, and no amount of topping could smother or deny them. Note that I said the cheddar on the former dog was ALMOST overwhelmed. Not even Cheeze Whiz can kill wieners (stop...snarking...stop it!) like these. A "handful," as D's calls it, of french fries were beer-battered and superlative in every crisped, aurulent way frites can, should, and must be. The BBQ wings had a sauce that was stickysweet like a certain Def Leppard hit and fell apart in our hands and in our mouths. Come, come ye wing fanatics. Another valid reason for D's to be is its energetic, far from obnoxious, live-and-let-live atmosphere that few places can match let alone top. People we absolutely did not know came up to us, asking us how we liked the food, if we had been to D's before, how our night was going, and etcetera, glorious etcetera. We dined underneath a whimsical painted mural full of famous people and fictional characters. While awaiting our meal, we spotted Ozzy Osbourne, Alice Cooper, Spider-Man, Bill Cardille, Richard Pryor, Bruno Sammartino, Captain America, and we'll leave it at that so as not to spoil your time-killing, conversation-making fun. Regent Square is fortunate to have D's. Come on a Friday night, grab a seat, have a frank, sip a cold beverage, and allow your weekday worries to disappear.

    Generally, I like D's I. The restaurant itself has a cozy feel to it, and their large beer cave is one of the few places where I can get some of my favorite import beer. Note, the Czechs make more than just Pilsner Urquell. Je to pravda! Most of the staff are very friendly, and the managers are always quick to help if you need assistance. Some of you may get angry with me, but I simply cannot review D's I without comparatively rating it against its sister restaurant, D's II in Monroeville. And no, I couldn't possibly care less that the latter is in an old Pizza Hut. That's right, I prefer D's II to D's I. Hear me out. First of all, D's I' drafts are all about a dollar more expensive than those in the suburbs. Why the upcharge? Also, after being spoiled by the very large menu selection at D's II, I'm always a little disappointed when dining at Regent Square. No wraps, no steak salad, no variety of sandwiches. I will say that the food they do serve is good. I enjoy their pizza and their daily hummus offering. D's I has a much smaller draft selection and lacks a full bar. Fine. It's a smaller location and it stays true to its original "beer bar" theme. Sometimes, however, I like to mix it up. And I can do that more easily at the Monroeville location. Obviously, I's beer cave trumps II's beer... um... outcove? So all of that warrants a four-star rating. Why the three? Like its suburban counterpart, I'm docking a star for closing so early. Even when there is a crowd, the staff closes at 11:00 (Su-W) or 12:00 (Th-Sat) on the DOT. That's just not responding to demand! Overall, I don't dislike D's I. Quite the contrary. After all, three stars means "A-OK." But to me, D's Regent Square doesn't go beyond that.

    Any bar and/or restaurant that has "D's Nutz" on their menu is great-grand-wonderful in my opinion. Let's start with the beer. Say hello to barley-pop heaven here folks. Over 1,000 different types of brews? Holy--I thought I blacked out for a second. You take a stroll into either a walk-in cooler or a backroom lined with every beer under the sun, pick what you want and toss it into the complimentary cooler. This nifty little guy chills your bottle to whatever your desired temp is, fast! We're talking like 3-5 minutes. If it were just for the insanely intricate brew selection, D's would be a 5'er star, period. Now, let's move on to some serious dog biz-nas. This place was recommended to me from a frank-lovin' Pittsburgh-ite as the best place in town to grab one. Welp, I ordered my very first Chicago-style hotdog and was not disappointed. In fact, holy-fantastic-hot-peppers! The toppings were all so delish and blended perfectly with the dog. It was cooked just right on the outside, inside and served up with a freshly steamed bun. Yum. We also skipped the fries and enjoyed a baked, soft pretzel instead. This thing was fluffy, chewy and delectable. The only thing I would ask for more of is maybe a heftier frank. Don't get me wrong--everything was beyond delicious. I just noticed there wasn't much meatiness involved, and with all those topping options you want the hot dog to stand out too. Besides that, the atmosphere, help and general vibe of this little joint was spot-on. If you're in the 'Burgh, you must stop by D's. Seriously.

    D's does the chicago style hot dog very well, they even use sport peppers which I can never find in the grocery store. The bun is steamed and features the quintessential poppy seed exterior. D's beer selection is also great but I'm not much of a beer drinker so it's not something I've ever focused on. The general consensus I've heard is that there is better selection elsewhere and the prices are a little high but you can't beat both their hot dogs and their beer selection at the same time, making them a great bar. Their fries are so crispy that I suspect they're double fried. They're tasty and the toppings available can turn them into a bastard concoction of delicious, artery clogging glory. There's been nothing on D's menu that I've been disappointed with. The service can be a little hit or miss due mostly to the sheer amount of business they do on a Friday or Saturday night.

    UPDATE: July 2013 Went back for a visit to the alma mater and decided to stop in at D's before heading out. I have updates on the gluten-free beer situation and the nacho situation. GF Beer: MUCH improved from what I remember. They had at least three varieties of the "deglutenized" beers - Estrella Damm Daura and both the Amber and Blonde Brunehaut (from Belgium!). They MAY have had Omission as well. They also have at least three varieties of New Planet, and at least two of Greens. Dogfish Head T'weasonale. Possibly New Grist and Tread Lightly? I was in a haze of deliciously non-gluteny beer at this point. Nachos: Maybe I'm recalling incorrectly, but I think when I've had these in the past they are made with real cheese - you know, shredded and melted. This time they were served with that nasty-ass liquid cheese goop, like you get at a ballpark. Blegh. Still four stars overall! Avoid the nachos though. --- The only food I've ever had here is nachos, so I can't speak to that. I WILL speak to the beer selection, though! I've managed to collect quite an assortment of beer snob friends, who love spending hours (literally) in the Cave o' Beer. I have to eat gluten free, so most ordinary beers are off-limits for me, BUT, they have an enormous selection of hard cider! Many many different kinds, including my favorite cider in the whole world, JK Scrumpy. Totally reasonable prices, too. Now the bad: 1. They close at midnight! After the downstairs closes you can take your drink upstairs to a little bar, but it's super loud, has no seating, and you don't have access to the magical treasure trove of beer. Boooo. 2. This is totally a niche thing, but I wish they had a better selection of gluten-free beers. There are lots of tasty ones out there, but they often only have Bards and Redbridge.

    I'm a vegetarian and everything, but man, sometimes all you want is a hot dog. And you can get this at D's. Every hot dog or hamburger on their menu can be ordered vegetarian, which is both awesome and rare. I ordered the Chihuahua (with avocado, cheddar cheese, salsa, and jalapenos) and my table split an order of fries. SO GOOD. Almost too good. And you have to take a stroll around the beer cave. It's not quite as impressive as I was hoping, but definitely worth the splurge to make your own 6-pack. Last time I was in, I was able to purchase a 6-pack of porters - Anchor, Road Dog, Saranac caramel, Duck-Rabbit, Old Leghumper, and something else I can't remember - for a friend. I'll definitely go back.

    A day after the St. Patty's day libations the only thing I'm craving is some greasy junk food. Regent square hits the spot with some chili cheese fries straight from D's. Normally I enjoy fishing around the plentiful selection of booze. A hair of the dog was not gonna happen that hangover Sunday. I stuck to shoveling high calorie food into my gullet instead. The last time I was here I selected from the hot dog menu, and they weren't that great. How can you mess up a frank you may be wondering? I can only guess that it's the dogs themselves or the way they are prepared. They're kinda chewy. Dormont dogs rallies but the best Dog I've had was at Dirty Franks in Cbus OH. The chili cheese fries are good though. So today I made sure to get my fries fix in and try a burger. This weekend I had burgers on the brain! My BF and I got the Balboa, the BBQ Texas, and two dogs, mac n' cheese and Mason Dixon with with cheese. The burgers had really delish toppings but the meat was so dry. It was overcooked and did not have one bit of juicyness dripping down my hand. Missing that major component they were truly lackluster. The macaroni dog wasn't that great either. Mac n' cheese should be creamy, salty, buttery. So sorry but this weenie came up flat too. I did like the Mason Dixon! The crunchy-ness of the coleslaw made a huge difference but the meat was still chewy and too salty. Could it be that I am too picky when it comes to my meat? If I am shopping for picnic eats I do go for Smith hot dogs WITH the casing or the large sized Hebrew Nationals. Now those are the mouthwatering crowd pleasers I'm talkin' about!

    Went here after a run in nearby Frick Park, which I felt gave me license to have a (delicious) hot dog washed down with a few great beers. I can't wait to return!

  • Faith A.

    I got some cheesy bacon fries and a corn dog, and although my meal was quite scrumptious and satisfying, I kind of feel that this place is overpriced when compared to a lot of other similar places that I have been to (Happy Dog in Cleveland, Dirty Franks in Columbus, Packs and Dogs in Mt Washington, etc). I loved my Arsenal Cider House Fighting Elleck that they had (which I have to say had us venture over to Larryville and go get a few growlers for home). The service is great, love the laid back vibe. Only reason no 5 stars, is the overall cost when compared to similar places.

    Local rootbeer is always a win, and the hotdogs and pizza were no disappointment. The jerk chicken wings, on the other hand...inedible. Stick to the dogs and the za, you won't be sorry.

    Great place for grabbing quick eats with an excellent beer selection. Their "Beer Cave" is awesome if you enjoy creating custom six packs. There also is a nice bottle chiller, so you can enjoy a cold one while the others chill. Higher than average prices. Nice neighborhood (Regent Square).

  • Melissa S.

    This place is one of the reasons we decided to move to Regent Square. I am not really a huge hot dog fan, but the BEER CAVE and FRIES keep me coming back (not to mention that it is walking distance from our house). We lived in San Francisco for several years, and this place also reminds us a bit of some of our old haunts in the Mission. :) In the summer, they open up the garage style windows, so this is a perfect spot to sit, sip beer (skip the wine though-- its not great) and work on your laptop or newspaper. If you are not into sports and just wanna chill, D's has two sides, so you don't have to feel outnumbered by screaming Steelers fans. D's always has a nice mix of people as well- from young couples with kids, students, hipsters, to elderly folks. The staff is really nice and friendly and the large mural of local Pittsburgh celebs is pretty neat as well! Yeah, this place is one of the best, laid back spots here. I am in love with the FRIES! I know I said this once, but they seriously do something very special to them that I cannot figure out.

  • Charla B.

    I love this place. Hands down my favorite place to grab a beer in the east end. They have a great draft selection that changes often in addition to a beer cave of cold bottles. Staff is efficient and friendly and they play great music. I also love their wings...D'sWing Dust (dry rub) is my favorite flavor.

  • Sam I.

    This place is like my second home. Not just because of the beer. Not just because of the great food - like hot dogs, pizza, burgers, salads. But, because I just love the atmosphere there. The staff is awesome. The people who eat/drink there are always there to just have a good time while enjoying having a few great beers. I recommend this place for anyone that just wants a beer, anyone who loves hot dogs, etc. Their pizza is actually REALLY good. Oh, and they have gluten free beers, which is good since I don't eat/drink anything with gluten in it!

  • Dana S.

    While living in Regent Square I went to this place way too often! It has a great selection of beer and the food is pretty decent - they probably serve the best fries I've ever had. It feels more like a restaurant in the sense that you wouldn't sit here drinking all night, but if you go for a drink and a dog you're going to have a good time.

    (4)
  • Samuel K.

    The beer selection is incredible. If you're ever looking for something stop by here - they most likely have it. The dogs (which are the only thing I've ever gotten) are excellent. You just can't beat a good beer and a good hot dog, and this place does both extremely well. I try to hit this place at least once a year.

    (5)
  • Amy R.

    Great food, GREAT drink selection. I have never had their hot dogs, because I'm generally not a fan of hot dogs, but my husband says they are fantastic. They have great wings - normally I'm not a fan of the dry rub variety but their ranch dry rub is great. Dip it in some blue cheese and it's just perfect. I'm a huge fan of hard cider, and their selection of 15+ varieties makes me a very happy customer :-) I love how you can just go pick it out yourself!

  • Shawn A.

    Tourist perspective: The beers were flowing here. Dozens of microbrews that I need to get to know better as well as Guinness, black and tans, and Unibroue Terriblé...a 10.5% ABV, 12 oz challice of dark strong flavorful brew. Pints are $5-8 depening on how obscure a beer you are ordering. But there is crazy selection. Try something different. Did you know, in this town....and I guess in this state, you don't buy your beer in the grocery store? You gotta go to spots like this for a sixer. If you need a beer, pint or to-go, this is an effin' cool spot. mix and match a sixer. We tried a bunch of dogs, wings and beers. The crew here managed to keep our glasses full even though it was packed on st. patrick's day. We tried a few dogs: the mac and cheese brat (with bacon)....really! bacon, mac n cheese on an effin' hotdog, a bacon cheddar brat and something called the mason-dixon, which was french fries & coleslaw on a dog. All the dogs were good eats. You can get your order vienna, veggie, turkey, cheese brat, or on a spicy dog. The dogs arrive well grilled with a little bit of crisp blackening going on. There are a shit load of additional toppings you can request (avacado, bacon, various mustards, saurkraut, etc.) and they seemed to be free...at least we didn't get charged anything additional .....Everything was included in the dog prices. Wings were ok. We did dry wings: jerk, spicy ranch, and parmesean. They were all decently meaty. The parmeseans with a side of the spicy mayo were good stuff, distinct flavor and good for dipping. The other flavors of dry wings were ok. Mostly just salty, but ok.

    To speak ill of D's would be blasphemy to any true Pittsburgher. It really doesn't get much better if you're in the mood for pub grub. Pizza is awesome, the fries are amazing - I'm going to go as far as saying better than Potato Patch - they are so crispy and not swimming in grease! What is their magic method? The burgers and dogz - all gluttonous goodies and you can get them all veggie style. If you're watching your waist line you may want to skip this place...but I say go ahead and treat yourself! Oh! And did I mention the beer selection isn't too shabby? Watermelon beer in the summer...mouth watering.

  • Donna H.

    D's looks unassuming, but it's really over the top. Sure, they have fries, but why not order fries with bacon and cheese on them, plus ranch dressing on the side (You should, by the way - those are the pub fries and they are delicious). You could order a plain hot dog, but why do that when you have a choice of five different kinds of frank, and toppings like the Chihuahua: avocado, salsa, cheese and jalapeno? Plus, your dog (even if it's a turkey dog like mine) might arrive at the table with a little char on it; that to me is the peak of hot dog flavor. I feel like a restaurant that serves cheese sauce like a food group should have a warning label on the door, but with their sense of humor, the label would say "Warning: the food inside is damn delicious and best consumed with a great beer."

    I enjoyed my evening experience here last night. The bar was really busy but service was still fast. They only serve beer and wine downstairs. If you want a mixed drink you have to go upstairs. We ordered a large supreme pizza, and it was really good! The wait staff was super nice!! Would definitely grab food and drinks here again

  • Monica T.

    This is our favorite neighborhood restaurant. They serve "bar food", but there's a nice variety of vegetarian and non-vegetarian food. My favorite items on the menu are the veggie dogs, pizza, and soft pretzels. You can't beat their beer selection. Make sure to visit the beer cave while you are there and their section of take-out beer for an even larger selection.

    D's, Oh D's. What a fun place to hang out, walk thru the beer cave and drool...also select a few beers to go. While it is not gourmet, U can have a gourmet dog. The root beer is great, too. So bring the kids. Friendly but gruff service! lol! Try the fries with chili or cheese! or the pimped up Pub fries! Yum! They have other food but I tend to get a dog, my fav is the Chicago Dog.

  • Anna S.

    I'm subleasing an apt across the street and have been in a few times now. Hot dogs are good and cheap but the burger options, although still good, are close to $10 each. Nice draft selection but also pricy. Their happy hour is $1 off drafts 4p-6p everyday, so that's still $4-5 for a beer. I'll be back though.

    (4)
  • John S.

    I'm over it. Too many instances of bad service. Though that one woman who I have seen working there for a long time is solid. But going back to what I started with; seems like the inmates are running the prison these days. The beer to-go costs more here than it does in New York City or Brooklyn. Think about that people. (The Monroeville location is better, imo.)

    Pittsburgh's very own "Cheers" I've lived in Pittsburgh for about 5 years now. I've been coming to D's for about 3...D's is one of the many gems of Regent Square. It really is the place (if you go often enough) that everyone really does know your name....as well as what you like. Or in my case...the only beer I actually like enough to drink more than once. The bartenders are all amazing people and really make you feel comfortable. The service is great and they are always ready with a recommendation for any newbies. All it takes is a few questions and they have a few suggestions. I have a friend who loves Magic Hat, and when finding out that D's didn't have it on tap that night, was totally bummed. When she told the bartender that she usually drinks MH, he made a recommendation. I was not at all surprised (she was) when she loved what he'd suggested. Your trip to D's wouldn't be complete without trying something from their extensive menu. Their hot dogs are great (and for those of you who are vegetarian, they have awesome veggie dogs), the pizza is delicious, and if you're craving wings, there's no better place to go (try the Jamaican jerk...they're my favorite!). Okay, so you're thinking good beer, good food, good service, what more could they possibly offer? DON'T LEAVE YET! Before you head home, hit the beer cave and take some to go. If you can't find something to drink here, you may just be too picky (or a non drinker, which is totally okay, but I would suggest the root beer they have on tap before you give up.) My sister and I stopped in over the weekend for some pizza. We had the pleasure of meeting Dino, the owner. He's incredibly friendly and just a nice guy ( he bought us both a drink!). We chatted for a bit, and he moved on to greet some other patrons. I think it says a lot about any place when owners and employees alike can be found there on a day off. If you're visiting Pittsburgh and anywhere close (heck...even if you aren't close) head to D's and grab a taste of a great local bar

  • Gerald M.

    NOT gourmet food, but incredible (better than gourmet) fries and hot dogs! Quick. Delicious. Ohhhh, forgot to mention the beer. We truly learned about beer at D's. Maybe $20.00 for food and $100.00 of remarkable beer to take home. Yeah, we had a couple to go with the dogs and fries... and the rest went home for tasting (that's a fancy word for drinking). Seriously, I do not know of any place that has more beers on tap or in a bottle anywhere! Although we have been visiting the Monroeville location lately since we live in Murrysville, D's Regent Square is where we learned about beer. (and fries!) Like a kid in a candy store, you will love the Beer Cave.

    Their hot dogs and fries are affordable and good but even though they have like 300 different beers in bottle their beers are over price and will triple your tab. That and yet have a limited draft menu.

    How have I not reviewed D's yet?? I moved away from Pittsburgh over 5 years ago and EVERY time I come to town, I go to D's. I can't stay away from the awesomeness that is the large walk in fridge of specialty bottled beers or the take away section in the back where you can grab all kinds of good beers you want. Oh and they have a little quick chiller for the warm beers you grab in the back so you can drink them right away :-) The food! Ok, I love the veggie dogs on the bun just plain, but I've been rockin' some of the specialty ones lately. I highly recommend the Chihuahua with jalapenos and avocado, or the Mac n' cheese, with...well, mac and cheese. The housemade root beer is also divine. It's perfectly sweet and refreshing. This isn't diet food people! There are far too many (oh so lovely) temptations at D's. Splurge and get the cheese fries to share. A small is good for 2 or 3 people and perfect with hotdogs. Once you get a table, sit back, relax and enjoy the goods.You won't regret it. D's is definitely not a rush-in, rush-out sort of place.

    My cousin and I went to d's for a yelp event and it was awesome! It was the first time I'd ever been there and I'll be going back. We had wings, hot dogs, and awesome homemade chipotle hummus. They even had veggie dogs for my cousin! Everyone there was so nice. If you drink good beer the beer cave will awe you. ..hell I drink Miller lite and I was in awe. So many beers!

  • Michael E.

    Something different here. Food, schmood, go there and drink the beers from the beer cave. I don't think you have to wait for the server to open your beer, they'll notice and charge your accordingly. It's all walk in and self service beer, why don't more places do that?! Mike

    (4)
  • R S.

    Obviously the great rep of this place is their beer selection. A lot of bottles. Decent tap selection, though you are guaranteed to have a rather lopsided selection among the taps. Food is fair; I've yet to go there with others and have our whole meal come out at once. Salad will come first, then a couple of dogs, then fries. If you are polite and civil and believe in not eating until everyone is served, well, let's just say that no one ever taught the manager, cooks or servers here that lesson. Now, their service: Really lackluster. "Entitled" is the word I would use. It pains me to give them 15%, because honestly, they don't earn it, even when I was a regular and knew some of them by name. Meh.

    (2)
  • Kiersten S.

    Sometimes I get these intense cravings to stuff hot dogs and greasy french fries in my face. As someone who doesn't eat meat, the hot dog part of that is a rare occurrence. Thankful D's gives the option for veggie dogs. This makes me very happy. It also makes my hangovers happy too. Not to mention they have an absolutely spectacular selection of bottles and drafts. If I'm not here enjoying the little pleasures in life - such as fat, grease, and gluttony- I'm enjoying another sinful pleasure, booze. Every time I come here I'm overwhelmed with choices. This place is magical.

    (5)
  • Lauren B.

    Awesome place! I discovered this when I was looking for a place to buy beer to go by the bottle that had a good variety, then I discovered this place was a full bar/restaurant. Besides getting bottles to go, you can also drink from any of their many drafts on tap or their individual bottles. Many are already in a chilled section, but they also have a beer chiller machine that can chill a room temp bottle in like 5 minutes! And they have a huge selection of beers, both imported and local microbrews. They also have a nice menu with a variety of things, including hot dogs, hamburgers, salads, etc. Hot dogs are one of their specialties and I'm not a huge hot dog fan but the bratwurst I had with bacon and mac-n-cheese on top was amazing! I also had the fried zucchini appetizer which was cooked perfectly and the sauces were very tasty (marinara and a spicy ranch-like sauce). I went on a Wednesday evening post-happy hour and was surprised how super crowded it was, so it may be hard to get a table on weekend nights.

  • Amanda L.

    My husband and I live walking distance to D's and we do love D's... but the place is always so crowded and noisy, that I can't give it more than 3 stars. I can't add much in the way of reviews here as to the food here, I think everyone has pretty much hit the nail on the head. The dogs are good, and I am happy they have veggie dogs. Beer selection is amazing. It's very family friendly, so if that's what you are looking for this is the place for you. Personally, I work with children all day & love them to death, don't get me wrong... but I find parents here tend to let their children act out a lot, and I find it really distracting and not relaxing. Since I am with children all day, I like my meals to not involve yelling and running children. So to solve that problem, we just order take out and eat our dogs at home!

  • Anna I.

    This place is really cute, and great to go for their Beer Room, where you can make your own six-pack. I did not enjoy the bar's chicken wings very much, but definitely a great place to try some unique beers and yell at your friends over the general hubbub.

  • Kay E.

    The mac n cheese dog I had was just ok, but the Mason Dixon with its slaw and chili was killer. The fries and barbeque wings were just as good. I also liked the atmosphere, the mural, and the employees who were really nice and honest and helpful. It's in a cool neighborhood too. Go!

  • Mark G.

    D's has so many great things about it, it's hard to pick which one's the best. The whole atmosphere of the place is great, very laid back and everyone there is always enjoying themselves. Obviously, the beer selection is great. I don't know how many different brews they typically have on hand, but it's a lot. And you're encouraged to go pick out your own beer from the walk-in cooler, even if you're sitting at the bar. The staff there is always friendly and you can sample some of the beers on tap if you're unsure of what you want. The food is pretty good too. The dogs can be simple or loaded with all kinds of toppings, and are a staple of D's. They also have a good selection on the rest of their menu too. Chili cheese fries - great. If you haven't been there yet, stop by in the afternoon on a Saturday or Sunday for a great local vibe.

  • Joseph S.

    Enter into D's (after figuring out the correct door - I still make this mistake) and you'll be greeted by a long draft bar. For Chrissakes, they have Delirium on tap! The real jewel, though, is in the back. You have the beer cave with hundreds of different types of cold beers for carry out, or you can build your own six pack from the unchilled beers and chill them on the spot. D's is still the only place I've ever found the elusive Hopfenweisen by SchneiderWeiss and Brooklyn Brewery, perhaps the best beer I've ever had. While D's is worth it for the beer alone, the food's not bad either. The pizza is average, but they truly do have the best hot dogs in the city. Finally, bring a growler or buy one of theirs. Prices are reasonable and the selection is outstanding.

  • Brian B.

    went here with a couple friends who live in Pittsburg for a quick drink. Really cool atmosphere. I got the run down as we sat about how it's a beer store and bar/grill all-in-one. weird liquor laws i suppose. they had about 20-24 brews on tap. went with the Terrapin Hopsecutioner, which I've had before and really enjoy it. They had a lot of local seasonals on tap, but I had to drive and I was tired, so I stuck to only one. Food was decent. Typical bar/grill menu. We ordered up some Pub Fries and Wings. Decent, nothing special, but I wasn't expecting the world. My friend got a Chicago dog that looked amazing.

  • LaMar W.

    D's is a great dive bar in Regent Square. I had a Chicago-style dog with bacon, and fries to go, for around $6. The dog looked like a chef put some real love into it - it was picture perfect, lightly dusted with celery salt, relish tucked in like it was ready for a commercial. The taste was perfect! The fries were awesome - batter-dipped, super hot, crispy and just salty enough to not need extra. I'll definitely be back. Not a lot of joints know how to do a good Chicago dog. Good cheap eats.

    (5)
  • T.C. J.

    D's quite possibly has the best beer selection in Pittsburgh. There are always 20 micro brews on tap and they rotate seasonally. Last time I went they had a variety of pumpkin beers and I pretty much tried them all to figure out which I liked best. If you aren't feeling any of the beers on tap then take a stroll to the walk in cooler in the back and take your pick of hundreds of bottles. Bring the one you like back to the bar and the bartender will open it for you and bring you a glass. The bartenders are really chill, and though the service isn't overly attentive, it is perfect for the vibe of D's. And speaking of the vibe, D's has this old pub style feel with the walls meeting at strange angles making cool little nooks and crannies where you can sit and sip your beer with friends or maybe just read a book. D's is also known for their hot dogs, and while good and inventive, in my opinion are a little overpriced. For some reason I have trouble spending $5 for a hot dog. I've tried their wings and fries too, both good standard bar food, but again a tad overpriced. My friend and I drank beers (a good amount) and ordered food and our tab was $100. D's still remains the gem of Regent Square and is worth the pilgrimage to Beer Mecca if you have never been.

  • Ryan A.

    Awful service; took us 2 and a half hours to get our food and the waiter forgot several items (then added a few beers we didn't order on to our tab; I'm assuming because he thought we were too drunk to notice.) Then we find out that after we had nicely split the tab for them (even adding in an extra $10 on top of the grat because we were too lazy to re-do the math) that they wouldn't split the check? In the time we argued about it, you could have run the 3 credit cards we had and been done with it. Had to argue with the manager (who was completely unhelpful, with one of the waiters standing behind her and being rude to me for backup) for 10 minutes and they didn't give us an inch. I would have stiffed the waiter for the awful service if I could have; but we got gratted so I didn't even have that option. If you want to come here with more than 3 people, avoid D's. Their beer is severely overpriced ($10 for a beer I can get at Sharp Edge for $6? no thanks!) and the food is the same fried garbage covered in cheese you can get at any other bar in Pittsburgh. In other words, don't come here. I used to like this place, but tonight was such a bad experience I'll just go to one of the other places in Pittsburgh that serves hot dogs, french fries and beer. There are plenty of them, I won't miss D's at all.

    I've been there many times, and they consistently have proven to have great food and service. Oh, and they have Vegetarian friendly options too!

    First off, even though McBrooms is the place to get beer... D's is a great second option when I want to get something nicer, or when McBrooms is closed. Anything from a case to a single bottle whenever you need it, already chilled, no strings attached. Prices are fair for the service too, and a walk-in beer cooler is definitely a plus. Also, the hot dog selection is great for both carnivores and vegetarians. My two favorites being the Chihuahua dog and the red alert dog. Spicy, spicy.

    Fast and Friendly service and good food. We were here on a Tuesday and it was busy. This place is also kid friendly during early evenings. Great beer selection and they have this beer cave you can walk in and pick a beer.

    best. beer. selection. hands. down. We waited almost an hour for a table but the bartender was super attentive the whole time and was on point with suggestions. It was def worth the wait too! We ordered a pizza and a few apps which were so good. No complaints here - we will totally be back.

    I go to D's almost every Wednesday night for a beer and a veggie dog after an hour of bouldering at the Wall. Their beer selection changes often, and I've never been disappointed. If I don't know what the beer is, they'll often bring over a sample to try to make sure I like it. The veggie dogs are great, the cheese fries are great, and I've never had a problem with the service. It can get crowded when a game is on, but just grab a beer and wait for a table. Pros: Fun menu, great draft beer selection, beer cave! Cons: Sometimes crowded and loud

    D's is a great place! Its unique as far as quasi-bars are concerned insofar as I go with a friend and have some dogs/burgers/pizza/wings and a few beers, and have a great time; yet feel equally as comfortable taking the family for a night out. The food is good, the staff is friendly, the prices are great, and the beer selection is fantastic. Its a great place for a family meal on a budget!

    One of my favorite places to go have a drink. There are really 2 areas, each of which are well-worth the trip alone. The first area is the "beer cave". Think high-end bottle shop, organized by country of origin. There are some really rare finds that rotate through, plus all the favorites as well. Anything in the beer cave (I thik there are over 1000 brands!) can be taken over to the eating area, and there is a rapid chiller to cool down your unrefrigerated bottles. There is also a large walk in fridge to grab beers as well. The eat-in area serves a variety of quite good bar food, although I've only had the hot dogs once or twice. The fries are great, and the draft selection in this area is awesome as well. Overall, go here if you want a great beer selection and good bar food. It's always pretty busy and the service is good!

  • Holly O.

    we love to go to this place when we are in visiting the in-laws. it's a great place to meet up with old friends, order greasy food, drink craft beer, and catch up in a relaxed setting. The place can get kind of loud at night so make sure your group of friends aren't hard of hearing. The craft beer selection is excellent. You can make your own six pack to go or drink any one of the unique beers in-house. They also have beers on tap for a cheap price. Food wise, their wings are decent and the pizza is greasy and cheesy. The place is pretty bare bones 'burgh style. Not trying to be something it's not, but still offering unique, quality beer from around the world. For that I give it my fandome and return business.

  • Soly Z.

    not bad! good dogs, super beer selection, and lots of hype. I enjoyed it. I wouldn't scream in ecstasy over it, but i would visit again if I were in the area. Thumbs up for the veggie options and the reasonable pricing for good food.

    Rupe Rankings of note: - #1: crave factor - #1: signature sandwich (hotdog) - #1: beer selection - #2: pizza - #2: fries Menu recommendations: - chili cheese dog - scorpassi (kielbasa with jalapenos) - garden pizza - plain fries - any brew you haven' t had or from blue point, ommegang or bell's Why you would go: - 1000+ bottled beers on hand for on-premise consumption or customized 6-pack creation - 30-40 brews on tap for pints or take-away growlers - awesome pub food - miller lite for cheap (in the new fully-stocked upstairs bar) - roll-up doors on the restaurant side for quasi-outdoor seating Why you wouldn't go: - with a larger group (more than 4 people) - seeking a quiet evening spot for kids (afternoons are fine for kids) - unwilling to pay the premium for micro / craft / import brews - unable to parallel park Overall impression: Terriffic neighborhood place for a small group to grab some terribly unhealthy food and try some new beers.

    I came here with a bunch of Russian language students who go to the University of Pittsburgh, figuring locals and Russian speakers would know the best bars. I was not wrong. This place is absolutely awesome, with an impressive beer selection and great prices. The staff is spot on with suggestions and somehow able to keep up with about 100 simultaneous and separate tabs going at once. At happy hour, I had incredible Belgian wheat beer for about $3 and even the pizza wasn't bad. For the upscale beer they serve, the place isn't trendy or yuppie. You go to the cooler in the back and just grab your own bottle or ask for a pour of whatever they have on draft (it changes often). They even let you make your own six packs and walk off with them. The music is good, and not played too loud so that you can talk to your fellow pubcrawlers. Highest endorsement. To Rob, ogromnoye spaceba!

  • William E.

    this is probably the best place to go get a six-pack of craft beer. the beer cave has thousands of bottles, and the walk-in cooler has a smaller but still VERY extensive collection. If you want your warmer beers from the cave chilled, there is a chilling station. All six-packs get a dollar-off per beer take-out as well. The ambience isn't as nice as, say, the sharp-edge, but the prices MORE than make up for it. ($4ish for a skulls splitter vs. $9.50 or $10 for example). Only complaint is that the bar gets noisy and the heat from the grille (behind the bar) can be a little intense in the summer. Couldn't be happier to live down the street from this gem! Oh yeah... the staff is great too.

    This is paradise for beer connoisseurs. A range of beer that confuses, bedazzles and quenches you thirst for quality brews. The selection on lager and ales on tap as well as in the 'beer cave' make this place one of a kind. The special hummus, fries, hot dogz, and pizza make it the perfect hangout place any given day in Pittsburgh

  • Pragna H.

    I am not huge on hot dogs or beer. However, I am huge on add-ons. This is where D's comes in. I totally recommend the chihuahua hot dog. It has avocado!!! The wings are delish too. This place is a must go for beer lovers. I am still the light and sweet kinda beer person, so I tried something with raspberry notes in it, and LOVED it! Oh and the fries are awe-frickin-some!! My second fave in the city after Point Brugge.

  • Rachel W.

    I love two things: beer, and hot dogs. I really love hot dogs. Gross, I know right? My bf is a vegetarian and he won't come near me with hot dog breath. But this place has veggie hot dogs too!!! Not to mention- the amazing amazing beer selection. Definitely one of the best I've seen in the Pittsburgh area. Coolers line the back wall and part of the perimeter of the store. If you get take out, it's a dollar off a bottle! Yayyy. They also have a cooler that (I think) is constantly reserved for whatever seasonal beers are appropriate at the time. Mmmmmm. Try the Roethlisberger hot dog, it's got cole slaw and french fries on it.

  • kevin c.

    I have been to Pittsburgh several times in the last year and this place is one of my favorites. Not just because the hot dogs are good and variety or them is pretty good too. I come just for the beer cave! Plenty of choice in there and the ability to pick your own is awesome! It gets pretty packed in there on weekends. Service is no nonsense. Best is the beer selection in the cave. This is the reason for the 4stars.

  • Chloe F.

    D's is the 'it' place for Pittsburgh... especially for those that like beer. There are several Belgian pubs around Pittsburgh, but D's is a whole different experience. Yes, the cave is like a candy shop. The cave is located in the back of the left side. The first time I went (after reading Yelp reviews) I was a little intimidated to head straight past the bar. It's not like BevMo so don't expect to save a lot on a six pack but if you're interested in sampling and trying out different craft or imported beer it's the place. Plus, who can resist a cheap, filling hot dog? Hm.. hungry. I'm going there now.

  • Keith C.

    D's has the best Chicago style hot dog in Pittsburgh. Whenever I come here, I usually get 2 of their Chicago dogs and a couple orders of chili fries when I'm with a bunch of people. The best part of D's is their beer cave. It is packed with beers all over the world. This was the only place I could find Perkuno's Hammer before it got retired. You can find bottles of literally anything here. The best part is that you can grab a 6-pack and just fit any 6 beers in it to go or have them for the table.

    LOVE this place. Delicious hot dogs (I am loyal to the mac & cheese topped hot dog - judge me, I don't care) & the most incredible fries around. I live in Regent Square & I'm thrilled to have a local go-to place for a quick dinner & a beer for very reasonable prices. They often have a $5 dog & fries lunch special that I gratefully take advantage of. Yum!

  • Antoinette Marie D.

    Awesome. That is D's. Burgers, dogs, and fries are so done, right? Wrong. Excellent toppings, excellent food, excellent beer selection. The fries and vegetarian selections are well done, so no one feels left out. I didn't know about this place until I started getting into trying odd micro-brews and I was looking for some different beers I had while living abroad. The beer cave is an experience and you will not be letdown. I have yet to meet someone who feels that D's is anything less than stellar. Sidenote: I highly recommend D's Sixpax for someone's 21st birthday to pick out a six-pack from their epic selection of brews. (Also, buy them a hot dog, cheapskate!)

  • Philip C.

    D's is a fantastic place with food! Reasonably priced and a nice atmosphere! Can get crowded but that's because it's soooo good! I love the selection of beer, it always me to try out a new beer without having to buy a whole case!

    During my visit to Pittsburgh, I wanted to experience the best that the city has to offer when it comes to local dives. And this place did not disappoint simply because of their awesome selection of imported beers and microbrews in the "cave". Just be prepared to shell out the cash for it. Any place that serves Delirium Tremens on tap deserves high praise! As a Chicago native, I've had my fair share of meat encased goodness. And while these signature dogs are very good, its hard to crown them the best I've ever had. On the other hand, the fries were perfectly crispy and delicious. therefore a must. The waiting staff was super friendly and its plugged in a great neighborhood. Overall, I'd give the place 4 1/2 stars instead of the 4 if I could. What I had: Big Ben hot dog (typical Pittsburgh toppings) Chili cheese fries (the small was enough for two) Cold glass of DT (duh!) When did I go: Saturday @ noon - plenty of space without the wait Will I come back? Even though it was my first time, I would definitely come back again and again.

    What a cool place. The beercave was very unique. If I hadn't just had my wisdom teeth out, I would have totally sampled some of the fine brews they had stocked away. What I did enjoy was the friend zucchini. It was hot from the fryer when it got to our table, and it absolutely hit the spot. I'd never had it before, and zucchini is one of my favorite vegetables. My friend said that the service can be slow, but we didn't have any problems.

    One of the few reasons I may miss Pittsburgh when I go to grad school. The hot dogs are piled on high with the best, fattiest stuff I can muster up, and the beer selection is one of the best in Allegheny Co. Great for a night out with friends, followed by indie movies at the Regent Square Theatre across the street.

  • Jeff O.

    I got the rundown of PA drinking laws, its resulting greatness in D's. This probably has the biggest selection of anywhere I've been and the food is great too. Every loaded fries that passed hooked my eyes like I'd been celibate for a year. Take a dollar off for take-out beer too. I love the descriptions in the menus and how every hot dog is the same price.

    There are tables but we opted to order our dogs in the bar. The bar was small neighborhood size, busy, very laid back and everyone was enjoying themselves. People in Pittsburgh are always friendly. We stopped here on our way to a Penguins game. They have a great jukebox, lots of great beer & hot dog selections. The only challenge was parking, but D's is located on a great street. Loved this place!

  • Kourteney G.

    Frosty drafts, the best veggie dog I've ever tasted, and delicious whole wheat-crust pizza. Thankfully, since their beer selection is vast and ranges from relatively cheap to ridiculous, the food is generally well-priced. Toning it down on the drinks can easily bring your bill down to a manageable twenty bucks for two people. They get a little extra bump from me because they so graciously hosted the Pittsburgh Beer Society for a long time, AND gave PBS members 10% off their beers. The downside? Service can be spastic, and I've never seen each person at a table get each of their meals at the same time. One person can scarf down two (delicious) Chicago dogs long before their partner receives their (equally delicious) calzone. But Omar, hipsters and yuppies? Aside from the occasional pair of skinny jeans and a trucker cap or two, I've seen mostly families taking advantage of D's great prices and groups of friends chatting and sharing drinks. It's definitely not a place to go to see and be seen, which suits me just fine.

    Love this local hot spot, also crowded and lively. Greasy comfort food, great beer and root beer. amazing election of bottled beer. Staff is nice and this place is super kid friendly. Order the veggie Chicago dog. Yum and messy too so watch your feet.

  • Rachel G.

    Even though they were out of the first beers we asked for (the Dogfish Punkin) this place hit the spot for a junk food craving. Vegetarians: the veggie dog is awesome, not rubbery or pale but nearly mistakable for an actual hot dog. I ordered one with kraut and mustard, and my boyfriend braved the three-cheese dog, which was hard to pick up but looked tasty. Their fries were good, and were generously portioned (definitely shareable) for a $1.50 small. Next time, we'll delve more into their beer selection.

    D's is just a great place to hang out. We biked here that single nice day in April and had lunch. The atmosphere is very chill, and the servers just wait on whoever needs help, which is cool. I am not a beer drinker but the beer cave is so impressive! I'm sure I could have found something special but wasn't in a browsing mood. Another thing, when I heard "dogs" I thought great - not veg friendly! But mistaken! They had tons of veg options! Not only veggie dogs are offered, but they have a great hummus platter, salads and more! I LOVED the hummus... so tasty! All in all, a great experience! I would love to come back and watch a daytime game here and grab a tasty bite!

    Just made my yearly pilgrimage to D's after my eye exam across the street. Great Taps (local offerings and belgian style) with Chicago style hotdogs, what more do you need to know!...Waiter made some excellent beer suggestions and I rarely stray from the "off the rack" Chicago dog but his suggestion to add the bacon was spot on. No trip is complete without visiting the beer cave. Some hard to get gems can be had. Many of the choices can be found at Giant Eagle now for less. Their selection of Mikkeller offerings was an unexpected bonus. Walked out of their with some great hard to find titles...see you guys next year!....

    I come here for the veggies dogs. My husband comes here for the beer cave. The beer is a bit expensive (compared to buying it in stores in NY). But if you're craving your favorite difficult to find because of the crazy PA licquor laws, this is your place. This place is family and group friendly, so sometimes you might have a wait.

    Driving back from here right now. Great first experience. I'm not really a huge hot dog guy either. I eat them twice a year: Memorial and Labor Day. However, the hot dogs were really good. I got the chicago beef dog. Wasn't a huge fan of the relish (don't really like sweet with savory) but I gave it shot. Friend got a custom turkey dog. He said the colesaw was great, as was the entire hot dog. We also split small chili cheese fries. They were fantastic. Fries were crispy. Service was fast. Great selection of beer. I got the Seamus red ale. The beer cave is awesome. Beware of the yellow mustard though. After several washings, my hands are still dyed yellow.

  • Dean J.

    Well, it has good hot dogs and a wide, wide variety of beer, stocking without pretense; Miller and Unibrau. The hot dogs are good. The beer is unfortunately not so cheap; six packs aren't much cheaper than just buying four or five beers. Bad for groups more that four people; great for two or three.

  • Stacey B.

    I go here a lot. I think most folks who live in Regent Square/Swissvale/Edgewood area do too. And it's probably not because the food is so utterly delicious. It's because it's a groovy little place with young hipster (and some not so hipster) bartenders and waitresses that serves up an endless array of beers in a funky loud space. I love Regent Square and always saw the potential for the grand old days of Hippy Free Love lying dormant in her quaint shops and family eateries ... until D's sprang to life in a former dry cleaner/gun shop space. Oh yes, how the times have changed and we are all so thankful for it. Big KUDOS to the D's Empire in Regent Square -- the Beer Distributor, D's Six Packs and Dogs, and the newest entrant Cibo! Well done! Stop on in for a nice hot pizza (I loved the Frickin Parker with meat balls and hot peppers but alas, it has been banished to the basement beer dungeon for-evah!) or a mediocre hotdog and languish in the beer heaven known simply as D's. They also have a smoky dark strange but intriguing (if you've had enough beer downstairs) bar upstairs now that serves alcohol.

  • Michaela H.

    I am SO glad that we live within walking distance to D's! The beer cave is to die for (though I find it hard to believe there are 1,000 beers in there) and stocks some pretty hard to find brews. I love that you can make your own six pack-- a great way to try a variety of beers without having to take the risk of hardcore commitment. There is a smaller refrigerated section at the front of the cave too, which is nice. What I really appreciate is that D's serves veggie dogs (a pretty uncommon find) that are pretty tasty! I quickly became smitten with their veggie Chihuaha dogs. I've also tried their nachos which were good (wiz, not shredded cheese). Great for takeout and dining in alike.

  • Lydia P.

    I lived in Pittsburgh for four years and have never been to D's, but I visited recently and went with some friends. What lured me was the promise of veggie dogs and burgers, and I was not let down. I got two hot dogs--a Chicago and a mac and cheese. Really, really good. My boyfriend ordered the Red Alert dog (his was meat) and his face basically melted off, but he insisted he loved it. Then he said the spices may or may not have traveled to his tear ducts, but to each his own. He had a great time. My two friends also got the mac and cheese veggie dog and loved it. The beer cave is awesome. I'd love to give D's five stars, but like a couple of people mentioned, the service is lacking. Everyone is friendly, but I had to walk around and find our server so I could pay, and then find him again when he didn't return. It took us a while to get water refills, too. The dining area and the bar are separated, and it seems like the servers congregate in one place and leave the other vacant at any given time. Very nice people though.

    First stop on my Midwest Brew Crawl with the BF! The BF ate here once last year and loved it so much that we decided that we needed to make it our first stop on our road trip to Minnesota. We planned our departure time so that we could get here at lunch (it was a mere 7 hour drive!) We both ordered the Bacon Cheese all beef dog (hot dog with bacon and melted cheddar on top) plus a corn dog, dusted wings and two root beers. We didn't try any of the beers on tap since we still had a lot of driving ahead of us. The Bacon Cheese was ridiculously good and I wished that I could have finished it. Unfortunately I hogged pretty much all of the corn dog since it was AMAZING!!! The wings were also really good, maybe even among the top three chicken wings that we had the whole trip. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is in the Pittsburgh area or anyone who is crazy enough to drive 7 hours for a hot dog.

    Awesome beer selection, draft and bottles. You can get beer to go. Hot dogs and more bar food type stuff. The fries are double-fried (Belgian style) and plentiful. High points of the sandwich menu: The giant fish, the Big Ben cheesesteak (toppings include fries & coleslaw), and the half-pound keilbasa with horseradish, brown mustard, and sauerkraut. Good pizzas too. The Swissvale Shroom is awesome mushroomy goodness, and I love the Popeye's on a whole wheat crust. One big warning: Service is wonky, especially if you order both pizza and sandwiches. The pizza kitchen is on a different schedule from the sandwich/dogs kitchen, and they make _no_ attempt to coordinate. Pizzas take 30 minutes and dogs take 10-15, so if you order a sandwich and your buddy orders a pizza, you'll be finished eating before his food gets there. Down sides: - The burgers are not very good. They come out large and dry. - Service is quirky (as mentioned above). - Gets crowded, especially on weekends. They frequently have a seating list in the dining room side, but I think the bar side is still "grab a table" - that's confusing. Beer only, though they've opened the "loft" upstairs that seems to have a full bar - I haven't been there.

    This place came highly recommended when I moved to Pittsburgh two years ago. They have an amazing beer selection, good dogs and they must have expanded the place in the last year because they have a pull up garage wall that I never noticed before. Fries are good too. Something about it is gimmicky to me but I'll let it go. Might as well stop here first before going to see a movie across the street...

    I'm not from PA, I'm from VA. In VA I worked at a wine and beer bar, where we served and I tasted some of the best beers in the world. And in VA we don't have absurd old beer and wine control laws, meaning our access to reasonably priced, intelligently stocked beer is much higher than pittsburgh. That said, the best selection of beer I've found in this city has been at D's. You will find a number of american craft brews, trappist ales, etc. The only problem is the price... which is solvable. D's has a great system, if you buy a bottle of beer to take out of the restaurant they take 1 dollar off the bottle. This dollar off doesn't matter when you consider how small a normal bottle is, but when you look at the larger bottles it does. The prices for their larger bottles with the dollar off are not much higher than you would pay in a specialty beer shop in a less regulated state. The only problem is that you have to commit to drinking three or four beers instead of one - I'm not really seeing the issue with that, but I'm sure someone will. Also, I've never eaten here, because hot dogs are generally not good. Furthermore, I'm not sure why anyone would go to a hot-dog joint and expect good service. So ignore anyone talking about hot-dogs and come here for the beer. Finally, parking sucks there's a lot of very busy restaurants and businesses on the same street, so expect to walk a little.

    One of my favorites because it's so convenient, and there's an awful lot to like. My favorite dishes are the Big Ben Hot Dog or the Balboa Chicken Sandwich, and the beer selection is fantastic. We've also started to get our pizzas here, and they're quite good.

    Love the BEER CAVE - would make any beer-neanderthal happy! Sorta like grabbing a cold one out of your friend's fridge, except D's has a giant selection. The servers were pretty friendly, even when it was last call. I can't say the food was so great, but the beer options and good prices help to make up for it. This seems like an easy-going neighborhood bar, and I bet it's even nicer when the garage door window is open during the warmer months.

    This place is fantastic. A robust selection of beers on tap, and literally a thousand different beers in bottles - this place is half bar/restaurant, half beer warehouse. But the drink selection might not even be the best part, as the food here was awesome. I went with the Chicago Dog for a modest four bucks, and it was as good as any I'd ever had - perfectly grilled dog, all the right high-quality toppings and a fresh-tasting bun. The pub fries sealed the deal though - a huge pile of fries with generous helpings of perfectly-melted cheese and just-soft-enough-just-crispy-enough bacon. My friend and I could have shared the large order of Pub Fries and been just fine. I saw someone's sandwich across the bar, and it was truly enormous - I could come here with a friend and for ten bucks, get my fill of sandwich, fries and beer for the rest of the day. Great value, great experience!!

    Everyone else has talked up the humongous beer selection, so I won't belabor the point. You can always find the old favorites, as well as literally hundreds of things you've never tried or even heard of before. Plus, they have a wide and rotating draft selection. (By the way, unless you're one of those people who needs to see the label turn blue, most of the beers in the non-cold room are plenty cold enough to drink as it is. It's the beer *cave*, not the beer *greenhouse*, after all.) The menu has expanded recently, but the hot dogs are still the best part. (A close second is the sausage sandwiches...) The chili cheese fries will clog the hell out of your arteries, but you *will* like it. The mural opposite the bar (see one of the profile pictures) sometimes reads like a term paper on the history and varieties of beers, but it still makes this place the most educational bar (on any subject other than anatomy, anyway) in Pittsburgh. The mural in the other room, depicting a wide variety of local and global celebrities, is pretty entertaining, too. Not really good for groups---while they'll be happy to have you, finding seating for all of you is likely to be complicated. Plenty of food to please the age-inappropriate among you, and they've even got a quite good root beer on draft. If they've got liquor under the bar somewhere, I've never seen it, but they've usually got a couple bottles of house wine open. (But what did you expect? It's a beer bar.)

    In my final meal in Pittsburgh, I finally had the closest thing to a Pittsburgh sandwich and that was the Big Ben Hot Dog with cole slaw, fries, and a cheese sauce. It oddly worked and I enjoyed the meal before I had to hit the road. The fries our table shared was also a winner as they were crispy and uniformly cut and fluffy potato goodness in the middle. Definitely a great cheap eats spot.

    Everybody told me about this place when I said I was moving to Pittsburgh and, sure enough, it is awesome. All the Belgian beer a girl could want. And the wings. And oh, the Mason Dixon dog.

    I don't understand the hype for D's, although I guess their beer selection *does* rule. If selection drives your decision-making, definitely head on over. However, if you'd like to receive anything other than slow, resentful service from your waitstaff, or food that is anything above sub-par, head on by without stopping. I've lived just down Forbes from D's for 3 yrs, and walk down there with friends a lot during the summer and early fall. I'm also a former bartender and waitress, so I can say with experience and certainty that I've received just downright terrible service there about 80% of the times I've been. Once, a friend and I stopped in for lunch with her kids and ended up waiting for the check 18 minutes after we'd asked to receive it. We were both fuming, and the waitress just looked annoyed and kept ignoring us to chat with her buddy. Another time, my husband and I came in 15 minutes before the ordering deadline, and watched as the waitress did not approach our table until exactly the cut-off time. She proudly announced that we could no longer order food (we just wanted pretzels, for god's sake). Food is pretty lackluster, although it's a nice touch that they have veggie dogs. Upstairs, expect about the same level of service, with a douchy element of annoyed resentment from the bartender, along with even douchy-ier clientele. I know D's is a favorite neighborhood place, but I'm tired of the abuse from waitstaff who look annoyed that I'm even there. If this was just a once-in-a-while occurrence, I'd be forgiving, but 3 years is long enough to judge.

    Living 2 blocks from this place is dangerous. If you're into quality beer and good pub grub, then this is your place. My favorites are the pizza, chicago style hot dogs and cheese fries! When it comes to the beer, let's just say that there are more selections than you can imagine (... they claim 1000+!!!)

    I think their beer selection is much more impressive than their hot dog selection. although, mac and cheese on a hot dog is a pretty amazing option. but really, come for the beer cave and you won't be disappointed.

    It's getting three stars for the beer selection. The hot dogs are nothing special, nor is one enough if you're hungry. I can buy a package of hot dogs at Giant Eagle and get the same effect times 10. Last time I was there someone said the pizzas looked good. Next time.

    This place has a Beer Cave! Seriously, that's what they call it. We got to go in and select the beer of our choice from shelves and shelves of single bottles, everything from Bud to Hoegaarden to Chimay and back again. So many beers I've never even heard of. Anyway, they have hot dogs too...soooo many choices. I came with a group and we all easily satisfied our hot dog cravings. I had the veggie dog with cheese, tomatoes and dill pickles, and it was so so yummy. Everyone else was thrilled with their dogs as well. We also got cheese fries with ranch dipping sauce, fried zucchini, and onion rings...and heart attacks...just kidding, but damn what a greasy meal of awesomeness!

    This place is no longer the cool hole-in-the-wall place to get a hot dog and beer (from a good selection). They've expanded and that is both good and bad in my mind. I liked the small, personal feel to the old place, but it definitely limited how many people who could be in the shop at a time. So, now they have a much more extended seating area with a bar area and a back room devoted to brews. I brought my friends here who like beer, and they were ecstatic to find a fave beer that they haven't been able to find anywhere in the DC area. (Go Pittsburgh!). The selection is nice and its good to see that I can find those out of the way beers so that I don't have to get just the norm from a beer distributor. The hot dogs? None of us were gushing about them afterward. But they're ok. 4 stars for the beer selection.

    Though you may hear this comment about many places in Pittsburgh, D's Sixpax & Dogz is a bit of an institution. This place used to be a tiny closet-like neighbour bar. It has expanded in the past couple years, moved the beer around and now they keep most bottles in a walk in beer cooler. They also have a rotating selection of draft beers. They still have a beer cave in the back. The beer selection is quite good. The service can be both good and bad, depending on the server you get. The place is very relaxed. The food isn't particularly memorable. I enjoy the fish sandwih. Fries are good. It's great for groups. It can get quite busy.

    It would get 4 stars for the name alone. The idea that they would just sell you hot dogs and six-packs is so just and pure it almost makes me want to weep. I went here and had the bacon chili cheddar dog and one with relish, kraut, and brown mustard. Both were excellent dogs, and their beer list is incredible. Again, how come we can't have this is Boston, where it comes off as real? If they tried this in NYC or Boston, it would come off as a gimmick. Whereas here, in Swissvale, it just seems like a neighborhood place with a twist. A coronary twist. So good.....

    The name itself is pretty self explanatory. You can pretty much get a hot dawg any way you like it. Although I've never tried a Chicago Dog in Chicago, D's Chicago Dogs are one of my faves on their menu. D's also makes a mean chili which is good on your dawgs or pomme frites. Not to mention the plethora of beer!! They have almost every beer imaginable (unfortunately not on tap). D's is a local favourite and is definitely worth a try when visiting Pittsburgh.

    Service here is spotty at best, but the food keeps bringing me back! About 25 unique beers on tap. I like the Chicago Burger, with a side of ever so crispy fries. If you are in the mood for great dogs, a burger and a few beers, this is the place to go. If they could only get the service down.

    Best beer selection and bar food I've ever had- anywhere. The Vienna Beef hot dogs are delicious and the Buffalo wings the best in the 'burgh. The kielbasa and fish sandwiches are solid, as is their pizza (I was skeptical- I thought, why not stick w/ just the hot dogs since they're perfect? but they're also very good.). Skip the chips- they taste burned. The fries are sooo good- get them with chili and cheese or pub style (cheese and bacon with homemade ranch to dip in)... Yes if you eat this every day it will kill you, but if you're looking for the best bar food- this is it. If you're looking for the best beer selection- you can't find anything better. Good selection on tap and amazing variety in the beer cave (they say it's ~1000 different beers). Some say Sharp Edge has better on tap...but their food is terrible.

    Although this area of town seems to be full of yuppie/student assholes who should probably have their asses kicked on principle, D's is actually quite good. Besides the unbelievable selection of beer (which is nice, but I'm the kind of guy who likes the more exotic beers but is perfectly happy with a Miller Lite or a Bud), the hot dogs are pretty awesome. I had the Chicago dog and the Red Alert dog, both were excellent. Service was good too, despite the fact the place was packed when I went. You can also carry your beers outside to smoke or just chat in warm weather even if the few outdoor bar tables aren't available. Non-pretentious atmosphere, despite the yuppies and hipsters infesting the area, which is a plus for me. I'd definitely go back next time I'm in Pittsburgh.

    Very very VERY good beer selection. I liked going into the "beer cave" and finding a wide selection of Belgian beers including ones that I hadn't seen since studying abroad in Paris. Hot dogs were excellent, and not as messy as I had anticipated; the fries were fantastic. Service was a bit slower than I would've expected for a lazy Monday afternoon. I don't think it takes very long to prepare a hot dog, so that's the only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars.

    D's is a classic pittsburgh joint. Their main fare is hot dogs with a wide variety of toppings, but their menu also includes other standard bar foods like Pizza, calzones, hoagies, etc. But let's be honest, while the food is good, when D's comes up in conversation it is unlikely because you are raving about the "chicago dog" you had there last night: D's is widely recognize as the location of the "beer cave", a massive collection of beers from around the country and even around the world. Everything from little-known microbrews to fairly exotic imports like Delirium Tremens (the variety comes from the fact that they are owned by the same people as the nearby McBrooms beer distributor, I have been told). A group of us grad students goes there every thursday night, so say hello if you're there. An added bonus is that the "new" side of the restaurant is already smoke free.

    The hot dogs are somewhat disappointing and the beer is slightly overpriced, but you come here for the sheer selection of those beers. An enormous beer cave makes one feel like a kid in a beer store. Unfortunately, only their cheaper domestic/import selection is refrigerated, which really sucks cause you can't drink those beers you find int he beer cave right away. Still, if you're looking for selection, this is the place.

    My dining partner assured me they had every beer I could think of. I asked for a personal favorite, Pliny the Elder. The waiter was gracious and consulted the inventory expert. Nope. He suggested another IPA which was on par, so I was content with that. The food is acceptable. Nachos were with the round yellow bag chips, plus some cheese sauce, and a spattering of jalapenos. The Chicken Supreme Sandwich was kind of boring, but filling. You don't go here for the sandwiches; I recounted this story to someone and they were unaware that sandwiches are even sold. I am told their namesake dogz are excellent, but I can't verify. We took a visit to the beer cave before we left and I saw a great assortment of top beers with many of my favorites. I'm not a beer snob, but I know what I like. La Fin du Monde, Trois Pistoles, Arrogant Bastard, Boont, Lagunitas IPA, all present and accounted for. The service was excellent.

    This is a great place to go if you're in the 'burgh. This small joint expanded in the last year. great dogs and a huge selection of beer, imported and otherwise. Service has always been decent and better. Sports agames are often on the TV so get ready for that. Atmosphere is pretty neat- there's a weird mural in the larger seating area that's worth a peek and a air duct in top of the room that's cleverly painted like a wooden beam- can't get over that. I am a fan. Go here- then go catch a movie at Regent Square theater up the street.

    good selection of beers*, but the food is appalling. sysco-truk curly fries and run-of-the-mill hotdogs that don't even have natural casings. puh-leez. if you're gonna put "dogz" in the name of your restaurant at least try to serve something better than what you can get on sale at giant eagle. no joke: I prefer the O. their fries are made out of potatoes and their dogs have real casings. * and by "good" I mean "good for PA" where liquor laws are an absurd kafkaesque mess and a lindeman's geuze is about as interesting as it gets (for like $15, natch)

    Made my first trip to D's today. By far one of the best bars I have been to. Great atmosphere, good food for a bar, and how can I not mention the BEER CAVE. They have an impeccable selection of brew. Great place to go for a night out or just to have a good time. I would imagine a Stiller game would be pretty fun to watch. The prices are just right including drinks, but if only we could do something about the county drink tax. I will visit this place frequently.

    Sick tap selection. Better than anything in D.C. where I currently live. I was shocked. So many Stone beers as well as other breweries that I rarely see. Went here twice while visiting Pittsburgh. I liked the scene here. It was low-key and people were polite. The hotdogs were great. I had the Chicago dog. I loved the peppers they put on the dog; not sure what they were. I definitely recommend this place if you like craft beer.

    This place was great! I was a little bit let down by the Chicago hot dog as it had too much mustard. That said, however, I was really excited by the beer selection and the neon green relish. If you're looking for a chill meal, this is a great place to check out!
