Now that spring seems to have finally sprung (knock on wood), what are your favorite restaurants that have outdoor seating and why?

ETA: Thanks for the great suggestions, everyone!

South Side:
Double-wide grill (big open area, including various "lawn games" events)
Mallorca (large outdoor seating area)
Excuses (a few tables on the sidewalk)
Fathead's (small outside patio)
Ibiza (semi-open-air back patio)

Shadyside-ish:
Harris Grill (front and back patios, long waits)
Elbow Room (back patio)
Soba (has an open-air deck)
Doc's (roof deck)
Kelly's (back patio)

Oakland:
Pittsburgh Cafe (patio)

That's all I can think of off the top of my head. The situation at Harris Grill can be really unfortunate on nice days; I called ahead one day and they quoted me a 90 minute wait for a table. We decided we could live with that, went over, and when we got there they quoted us THREE HOURS. I'm happy for their success, but I've mostly given up at this point.
