beautiful view from the bar 10Best Photo uploaded by Laura&Aaron. ©2009. All Rights Reserved.
The Monterey Bay Fish Grotto is more than a meal, it's an experience. You'll marvel as soon as you walk in thanks to the mesmerizing view of Pittsburgh offered here. It only gets better from there, as this Pittsburgh restaurant uses only the finest local ingredients. Start off with the Oysters Rockefeller or calamari. Next, sink your teeth into one of their fresh fish selections, such as halibut or sea bass. They also offer several different juicy steaks and tender chicken. End your night with a tempting dessert, such as the peanut butter cheesecake or vanilla bean crème brûlée.

Best of Mt. Wash
This really is the best place to get seafood in PA. Everything is always delicious, the service is great, the view is amazing. My family and I eat here for every birthday and special occasion. The crab cakes are the best and the combination fish app is always a treat.

Affirmation of the Best......
Yes it is. Spend every special occasion meal here, the only thing that I could hope for was a seat by the window wall every visit. If you go here enough you can get that as well. There are too many amazing entrees to list but as a crabcake friek these are some of the best and they're large. Lastly the lobster soup is amazing it is served as a bed of caviar with lumps of lobster on top in a dry bowl, the broth is poured table side. Tranperency!, you see the amount/quality of the ingredients before they pour it and then you think, thats it?......Don't worry they manage to pack all the flavor into the broth even though the composition seems simple. Be daring here, pick something out of your comfort zone, you have that luxury here and won't regret it.

Best Fish I've Ever Had
And I'm not lying. This was the BEST FISH I'VE EVER HAD! I got the Champagne Basil Salmon. I also got the Vanilla Bean Creme Brulee which was to die for. This was just an experience altogether. It was my first trip out to Pittsburgh and everyone said that I had to come here for dinner to REALLY experience Pittsburgh. The view is amazing outside, where you can stand on rocks to see the city, the elevator up to the restaurant is all glass so you can enjoy the view once more, and then the entire restaurant is surrounded by windows. It overlooks Three Rivers Stadium and apparently it is just breath taking to be eating up there while a Steelers game is taking place. I can believe it. Don't let society fool you - the view is WAY better from the bar than it is from the dining room. There's no smoking in PA so you don't need to worry about a "bar" atmosphere. But make sure to get here early, it fills up quickly! A+++
