The best Wings I’ve ever had - Edit
The food was ultra savory. I had the seitan wings and a vegan sandwich. The wings are a must when you visit.

Ok - Edit
Idk i really did not like the seitan cheese steak. The seitan was floppy and with the wrong marinade. Felt like there was no "cheese" on it. Bun was unremarkable. I did like the vegan garlic slaw. Bartender was v friendly. They do have big clearly labeled veg menu. I'd still return to try other things especially to see the patio when it's warm.

Very good food and beer. Friendly staff and a fun ambiance. There’s even seating outside for people who have canine companions! Wonderful place to eat for vegans and omnivores alike.

🤤 - Edit
So so good. I got the seitan wings and the vegan philly. Although I think the ranch that came with the wings wasnt vegan I couldn't tell so I didnt eat it but the texture on the wings and the flavor is spot on. The philly had a bit of a barbecue taste to it.

yummy wings - Edit
Second time stopping in while in PGH for work. The wings are great, especially when they are piping hot. Love the location and decor.

worth trying. - Edit
I was surprised by their options. The pulled bbq seitan sandwich is great. I’ve had a few other options but the pulled seitan stands out.

Just okay - Edit
We were visiting Pittsburgh after spending time at Summerfest in Johnstown. The day we were leaving we stopped by to pick up "to go" food to eat at the airport. Service was good. I had the Vegan Seitan Cheese steak sandwich, my wife had a lentil bean burger, both with the garlic slaw. There was little or no cheese in what was a bar-b--que flavored seitan sandwich. My wife's burger was thick and dry. The slaw lacked much flavor. If this is typical fair, I am not impressed.

crear place - Edit
They have a full menu of vegan options. The vegan chili was great, and the tempeh sandwich was just perfect. It was really easy to order (you know, I didn't need to explain step by step what I can eat) usually I expect that vegan food at a non vegan restaurant to be very simple, but the food was excellent here, very well flavored and cooked :)

Vegan + barbecue + gas-station theme -- it works! - Edit
Unique and fun. It's an old gas station and the layout and paraphernalia, including a 1950s-era pickup truck over the bar, are a riot. The gas-pumping area is now outdoor seating, including a "man and beast" compound for parties with dogs that has special accommodations for the four-legged customers. Terrific draft craft beer selection. A wide variety of unusual vegan menu selections right alongside a full menu of beef and pork barbecue items. Nice venue for vegans to dine out with their extreme-carnivore friends. Terrific place to dawdle at the table, European-café style. The seitan "wings" were delicious, and so much less messy (and unhealthful) than their avian counterparts. The wood-grilled veggies with multigrain bread were wonderful, too. These are appetizers but the portions were so ample that I didn't have room for anything else. All in all a very satisfying experience. Would give it five cows if I could, despite the fact that cow is on the menu.

Worth a try - Edit
I personally enjoy Double Wide, although I will admit it's not thee best option in Pittsburgh. I often end up going here because the people I go to Pittsburgh with are not veg'ns. I always get the seitan wings, because I love them! I get half of the Cajun dry rub and half BBQ flavored. Every single person I've gone with has loved the "wings" as well. Even my brother-in-law who is an avid hunter and huge meat eater loved them, and he couldn't believe how "meaty" they tasted. My mom and sister both enjoy the seitan wings more than anything else on the menu as they didn't care for the (non-veg) meals they ordered. I also really loved their caramelized rice they used to have (looks like they have changed their menu, though, and may not offer it anymore). You get huge portions when you order the TV dinner. Kind of strange that they include a non-vegan slice of cornbread with it, though, even when you specify you want all vegan. I was very disappointed with their portabella "burger." I am usually a huge fan of portabellas and things that are wood-grilled, so I thought that their wood grilled portabellas would be really good, but it just didn't do it for me. I have been annoyed a few times by their poor service, as they tend to be slower. I enjoy the atmosphere. They have interesting décor, though it's too loud inside, and I like that they have bowls and stuff set up for people to bring their dogs to enjoy their outdoor seating area. All-in-all, I'd still recommend the Double Wide Grill.

Very clearly marked vegetarian and vegan menus - Edit
Amazing seitan wings! Doublewide is a fun party restaurant with great variety of gourmet food rich in flavor. It's so nice to see so many clearly labeled vegetarian and vegan options on their menu. Everything we ate exceeded our expectations. The only disappointments were the absence of vegan desserts, and the noise level of the restaurant was very loud in the main garage. The bar section was actually much quieter. But it's a party bar restaurant that's really well themed. Places like this tend to be a bit on a noisy side.
Read morePros: clearly labeled vegan food, rich flavor, great variety

Good food - Edit
We often go here for a quick dinner. The vegetarian options cluster around veggie version of traditional bar-style food -- burgers, wraps, sandwiches. They do these well, certainly among the top veggie burgers I've ever had. They also have a rotating selection of micro beers which usually includes some very good beers. The decor is entertaining. The outdoor patio is nice in the summer, although the street noise can be very loud. Inside the noise usually isn't too bad. My major concern is the service. While usually the service is fine, we have had a few times where the service was absolutely terrible. One time we had to wait an hour to be seated and wait 15 minutes to see a server, only to to be told they were out of everything needed to make all their vegetarian options. A frustrating evening to say the least.

Double Wide Grill - Edit
Meh, with a capital M... This is an interesting restaurant, the decor and atmosphere was definitely neat. However, when it came to the food (and service), I felt they were lacking. The seitan wings were notably better than my entrée (they even appeared to have rice in them), but they were still lackluster. The BBQ seitan sandwich was also underwhelming and was just missing something...can't put my finger on it. This is a good place to go if you're dining with non-veg people, but overall, I think the vegan options are boring.

Much more enticing than the name implies! - Edit
While this sounds like a hillbilly greasy burger joint, it's actually quite the opposite. They have a broad menu, and brunch covers everything from waffles to full entrees.
Read moreVegan-friendly options were mainly portabello or veggie burgers and wraps, or modifying the salads. They do have a vegan roll, though when I specified my order it still came smothered with cheese and on the non-vegan roll. The second time around it was right.
It's a decent place to go esp with non-veg friends, but it's by no means a veg restaurant.
Pros: More than just a veggie burger, Tasty menu, Enough variety to please veg and non-veg
Cons: Service was slow, Order was non-veg first time around

neat little place - Edit
I was in Pittsburgh for a business trip. I hastily picked out three vegan-friendly restaurants to go to. This was the omni one I picked so that collegues could go out with me. I enjoyed the food. It was good. I had the hot wings (seitan cubes) and a sandwich. I guess I would say that it's very obvious that vegan cooking isn't what they primarily do, however, they do it with enough skill that it's not terrible. I should add I'm not a drinker though and this has a strong bar presence, so the atmosphere threw me off too.
Read morePros: creative selection, clearly marked on menu, good prices
