They are. Mintt and India Garden are your non-veg options in Monroeville.

If you’re looking for casual/bar food, try D’s in Murrysville or Dad’s in Monroeville

I'd throw Gateway Grill in there as well.

I just went to Gateway Grill and it was much more expensive than comparables I can think of. Eating the leftovers as I type. Was not impressed.

That might very well be the case now. I'm not out that way terribly often for dinner and I don't think I've been there for dinner since before the pandemic.

There's also the Brewery at Lucianos, where Rivertowne used to be.

Kind of a mix of Italian and bar food (burgers and such).

I almost forgot that place opened! I meant to go a while back but never did.

I miss Rivertowne 😕

Just to grab a good bite or to watch the Steelers game? If the former, Pasqualino's (Pizza Palace to us old timers, haha) in Penn Hills. Casual homemade Italian, that is the BEST!

Pizza Palace?! now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time.

I always had good luck at the Verona Village Inn.

Dick's diner in Murrysville has the best pie in the area. And the open face roast beef with gravy on everything has me drooling just thinking about it. That said, you'd impress your grandma, but not your date (unless that's grandma).

Fun Asian Bistro in Penn Hills has incredible sushi, curry dishes and Chinese food. Delicious, high quality food.

The only dish I’ve gotten there that wasn’t incredible was their pad thai. But everything else is fantastic.

Mad Mex could be a decent choice, in Miracle Mile. They have a very good happy hour from 4:30-6:30 (half off drafts and wings, discounts on margs) if you were intending to go around that time.

Anthony's in Miracle Mile is decent too. A little expensive but the food is good.

Osteria Pasqualino a little further down the road in Murrysville. Great Italian food. Big portions and fairly cheap

I would have said Mohans but it's closed Mondays. It might be open for the steelers game though..it just hits on everything, super large beer selection, food is on point, and the price is right, crowd is always always pleasant. Still think they have the best wings I've had in Pittsburgh. You can go into the restaurant part or sit at the bar, it's always a good time. It's that bar you can go to on a Tuesday and have a blast.

Big Rig’s has the best bbq in Pittsburgh, but it might not be the type of place you’re looking for. No TVs, very small inside, and you order at a counter and have the food brought to you. It’s BYOB though which is always a plus.

If you’re looking for fried chicken get Mohan’s in Penn Hills.

Green Mango in Monroeville/Wilkins has some awesome stuff. Usually very quick service and great quality.

turberticus t1_iya1tqe wrote

Meh, Just my opinion, but I'd stay away. I think it's gone downhill and it's overpriced for what it is. I ordered their Drunken Noodles last year and I was extremely disappointed. It was bland. No seasoning or spice whatsoever. I'm not sure if that was just a fluke or the cook doesn't know how to make Thai food, but lots of recent Google reviews echo my experience. Even if the food was acceptable I think it's still overpriced.

A little beyond the area you mentioned but I think it is worth it. Burgers are really good and come out basically right away.

GargantuanWitch t1_iy4wpjk wrote

Ah yes, Burgher Burger, which isn't in the Monroeville/Murrysville/Wilkins/Penn Hills area that OP wants, nor in the same county as the actual city of Pittsburgh.

FWIW, go to Dad's in Monroeville.

chefmarksamson t1_iy5lac0 wrote

To be very fair, Murrysville isn’t in the same county as the actual city of Pittsburgh either, and Irwin is like 15 minutes down the road from North Park Lounge, where OP was originally trying to go. I probably would also go to Dad’s, or Gateway Grill, or maybe Juniper Grill in Murrysville, but I don’t know that it’s worth treating them like an idiot for suggesting it.

Apparently you can’t read because I specifically mentioned it’s a bit beyond the area he is asking. A 20-minute drive isn’t that far away.

GargantuanWitch t1_iy5rwqs wrote

No, I can read just fine. I'm just assuming that OP doesn't want to drive 20 minutes further away than they were already planning, given their first option was closed.

funkyb t1_iy5opzk wrote

That's more then "a little beyond", that's in Irwin.
