“Experience a legendary meal—–I give you my personal guarantee,” -Chef Dan

Dan Bartow’s dream of opening an upscale, casual, family-oriented restaurant became a reality on May 30, 2002, with the grand opening of Legends EATERY Restaurant located on the North Side of Pittsburgh. This native New Yorker has welcomed over 35,000 customers to the restaurant with his continental Italian specialties. Hi

s customers are not only from the North Side but from all over the tri-state area — Monroeville, South Hills, Upper St. Chef Dan’s passion to search Pittsburgh’s Strip District for the freshest and finest ingredients compliments his personally-selected menu. A PROUD PITTSBURGH TRADITION

The North Shore of Pittsburgh has recently been the center of a number of redevelopment projects which marks the beginning of the “Third Renaissance” for the “Steel City.” Legends of the North Shore Restaurant further encompass this legendary facelift on the North Side, and is a definite welcome to the neighborhood residents. Walking through the front door of the establishment, you first smell the aromas of fresh bread baking, and at the same time, observing great Italian food being prepared by a qualified staff. As you sit at the bar, waiting for your table, possibly enjoying a glass of wine—you can’t help wonder how it all started. Bartow was born in Long Island, New York, graduated from the Sullivan College in upstate New York, interned at The Disney Inn at Walt Disney World in Orlando, and worked at the Flying Bridge Restaurant in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. He continued to perfect his Italian cuisine while working and managing a number of local restaurants. But it wasn’t until a few years ago, while working at Legends on the Green Restaurant, located in the South Hills, that his entrepreneurship future was destined to own and manage his own restaurant. Legends EATERY not only boasts the finest Italian food in the city—but it’s also a family business. His wife Zoe, children Kristopher and Danyelle and mother-in-law, Connie Springhetti, all work together to achieve one collective goal—to consistently offer excellent food, service, and provide the ambience marked by excellence and simple elegance. Chef Dan has prepared his culinary masterpieces for residents on the North Side but there have been customers who have stopped in from Georgia, New York, California, and even as far away as Rome, Italy and Puerto Rico! But the one thing that every customer will agree on—–the food is wonderful, the atmosphere is something to behold, but more importantly, they’ll be back! How about having Legends EATERY cater your next party or business meeting? Call the restaurant for more details and a copy of their catering menu. Don’t have enough time to sit down and have a leisurely lunch or dinner, take-out service is available. Delivery service is also available in limited areas. Legends EATERYRestaurant is located at 500 East North Avenue, on the corner of James Street, next door to Allegheny General Hospital. For more information or directions, please call, 412-321-8000.
