    Great food, great price, great atmosphere at the Pittsburgh In
by Karl Benacci
features co-editor
Not long ago, I had the
opportunity to have dinner at the
Pittsburgh Inn, which is located
on West Lake Road. When I
arrived at the Pittsburgh Inn, I
appreciated the homey look that
the exterior of the restaurant
possessed. But what I enjoyed
even more was the interior of the
restaurant.
As I entered the restaurant, I
noticed that the walls were
covered with items related to the
city of Pittsburgh. Among some
of the items were photos of the
Pittsburgh Penguins and Pirates,
and nearly everything else that
you could think of. My party
and I were seated in the corner

could admire and discuss some of
the Pittsburgh memorabilia that
hung on the wall.
The atmosphere of the
restaurant is quite nice. It is very
laid back and it seemed that
everyone at the restaurant was
immersed in discussion at their
tables and having a good time.
When it came time to order, I
decided to get the fish and chips
meal. The meal came with french
fries and cottage cheese. I was
pleasantly surprised when I
received my order. The portions
exceeded what I had expected,
and the meal was quite good.
I would recommend the Pitts
burgh Inn to anyone that has a
fondness for sports, Pittsburgh,
or great food at a great price! I
give the Pittsburgh Inn ***
