Living in Europe ruined nightlife for me. No club in the US has ever compared to anything I experienced in Europe. But I will say this, Spirit, Brillobox, Belvedere’s, and Hot Mass (idk if that's still a thing) are probably the closest thing you'll get to a European club experience, and that's mainly dependent on the DJ itself. Instead of being nightclubs, they throw different dance parties with different djs.

Leo Greta in Carnegie or Di'anoia's in the Strip are amazing. Leo Greta's a narrow brick room, while Di'anoia's is an open space with two walls of windows, so Leo Greta is more what you want, probably.

For a bit fancier, Dish Osteria in Southside or Bar Marco in the Strip, both of which are small, cozy joints.

I think those are about as good as it gets for Italian, and yeah, they're real real good.

I listened to an interesting article about that and why it's so hard. For example, I didn't know that there was a maximum speed for the plows before which they're just traveling faster, not removing more snow, or at least that it was so slow. Also, well, snow doesn't go away when you plow it, so yeah, it is just displacing it to someone else.

You see people dressed literally all kinds of ways on any given night at Belvedere's.

A punk in a spiked leather jacket? Not out of place.

Someone dressed like an '80s yuppie played by peak-career Andy McCarthy? Not out of place.

A glam rock David Bowie cosplayer? Not out of place.

A goth in fishnets with wingtip eyeliner? Not out of place.

It's a very eclectic venue.

My perpetual Pittsburgh 21st birthday suggestion is to start at Kelly’s for cocktails and then go to Belvedere’s for PBRs and dancing. It’s a winning combo.
