About this restaurant

  • Good for business meals
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for creative cocktails
Hand-cut, perfectly aged Midwestern beef, trimmed to our specifications and cooked to yours. Deep booths and a deeper wine list. A bar that makes everything better. And the kind of service everyone deserves but hardly ever receives.
Welcome to Pittsburgh Blue. You’re about to eat very, very well.

    Both of our steaks were undercooked. They offered to take them back but we declined. The reservation form asks if there is any occasion so we had made the specific notation on the reservation that we were celebrating our anniversary however, despite this, our anniversary was not mentioned by our server so that was a little disappointing.

    We have eaten in so many Steak Houses in Minnesota. This is the best Steak House (outside of 2 in Minneapolis) that we have eaten in. Meat well flavored, cooked as ordered. "Sides" are plentiful and tasty. Servers observe and offer additional service as we need, not as they come by. Drinks well "put-together". We will be eating there once every month. TY

    We love this restaurant! They have a great menu, with so much from which to select. Of course they’re known for steaks, but there is a lot more.The pasta dishes are outstanding. Quality food, great service.

    Overall the dinner was very enjoyable. Steak prepared perfectly, salad and soup delicious. The only item that couldn’t be eaten was the blue hash browns, they were drenched with so much hot sauce that it was all you could taste.

    As a new steakhouse in Rochester MN, I thought we really needed to try it out. I almost always order the filet when dining out. So I know how they should be prepared. However, the filet I was served last night was the absolute worst. It was supposed to be grilled medium rare, which the inside core was. But the outside 1/4" was burnt, and was as tough as nails to cut. How you can take the most tender cut of beef and turn it into a charcoal clinker is beyond me. I would not recommend eating at Pittsburgh Blue if you like good steak.
