Big Jim's in the Run: Pittsburgh's Homey Spot for Hearty Italian-American Fare & Generous Portions

In from out of town. The local crowd of first-name-basis regulars was a good sign. Staff is efficient and attentive. Portions are huge and a good value. Sons had buger and fish sandwiches, we hade the meatballs and chicken parm dinners. Wedding soup was perfect, light and hearty all at once. Good cook on all food. Sauce on parm was a bit under seasoned, but still good. Locals ordered sandwiches and a basket of fries to share with side of gravy and cheese sauce for dipping. This seems to be the ticket at Big Jim's. Left full with 2nd meal to go boxes filled. Hope to make it back again some day.

It's really is one of the best gastropubs I've ever visited. We like their marinara. We think their zucchini strips are probably the best we've ever had! We've had their homemade lasagna which is excellent. Their Ruben was also very good! I like that they put the sauce on the side. Great home cut fries! The portions are huge so there really is no room for dessert which is not on the menu! We're looking forward to going back to try some other items!

Everything about Big Jim's was pretty awesome The huge portions of food were out of this world! They have a large menu with so many choices. Gotta keep going back to try them all!

Delicious food and service was very good. Pizza was so yummy, fresh cut fries and the fish sandwich was all so good. Nice little spot to take the family and enjoy a good lunch or dinner!

Went for a morning run on the Eliza Furnace Trail and treated ourselves to open-faced sandwiches and a beer at Big Jim’s. The vibe is homey and local with warm wood tones and cozy signage all around. The menu was extensive with a variety of Italian-American cuisine and classic sandwiches and salads. The roast beef and gravy was exactly what I needed after my long run! Our server was super friendly and attentive too. We can’t wait to return to Greenfield to continue our menu exploration of Big Jim’s!

The food was tasty and the portions were huge. My husband and I had French dips. I ate mine over three days! (Steak knife in picture for scale) We'll be back to try another dish!

10/10 HOAGIES! Great tucked away restaurant. Came to Pittsburgh for a day and drove directly here! Lovely local, tavern feel and kind staff. We went straight for the hoagies which come in half portions! (Still enormous btw) Eggplant Parmigiana Hoagie 10/10 - deliciously breaded, toasted bread honestly one of the best I’ve ever had! Spicy Sausage Hoagie 10/10 - would most definitely order again, mild spicy sausage. - ordered more sauce on the side per server recommendation and it was a wonderful choice! Will be back next time in town!
