i've been living in pittsburgh now for almost a week and have had dinner out a few times. and sadly, i haven't been terribly impressed with the food scene thus far. so i head over to yelp to see what gets good reviews and stumble across penn ave fish co.
**disclosure** after living in miami for the past 9 years and living in various other cities on the east coast before that, i was troubled by the idea of fish in pittsburgh. there should be a term for this... coastal fish elitist?
so, i have to admit that i was a bit reluctant to try penn ave fish company. but man, oh man i'm soooo glad we went. we've even been back twice already. once for sushi and crabcake sliders. the sushi was ridiculously fresh and crabcake sliders on pretzel buns were to die for. on trip #2... the grilled tuna club was a seriously scrumptious sandwich, uber fresh and a healthy size.
penn ave fish has been the highlight of our eating excursions so far. even if you're a visiting 'coastal fish elitist', give it a go... i would be shocked if you're disappointed.
