Oh god no.....please. You can do better than Quaker Steak - it's just a chain restaurant that's all over the place. Take yourself to the Southside. Go to Fat Heads, Piper's Pub, one of those places. Tons of things to do down there. Walk up and down carson street. That's my neighborhood. It's fantastic. You won't have to spend too much money. There are a lot of cool stores to walk into and look around in, tattoo shops, hookah bars, candy stores, free art galleries...etc. Anything you could possibly want can be found down there, and it's a neighborhood with a lot of young people. You'll love it.

If you want to experience the real pittsburgh, avoid cranberry, robinson, and the suburbs. Nothing in those places is "true" pittsburgh.
