Came here before a Pens hockey game. Sat in the strange area that was in between the main dining room and the wine bar. Felt like we were eating a meal in the lobby. It had the bar menu though, and it was a comfy seat, so I was at least happy about that. The staff was attentive and answered all our questions. But....then came the food. I have been staying at Marriott hotels my whole life. I have come to expect a higher caliber from my Marriott experiences and this was not it. You can do better than Steelhead, Marriott.
I ordered the clam chowder, which I was told was their popular item. It came out looking like chunky sausage gravy. It had obviously been sitting in a hot kettle since morning because most of the water had evaporated from it and was no longer a soup consistency. The clams were chewy and way over cooked. The flavor wasn't bad, but it was too strong due to the lack of water. Maybe if you had it for lunch it would be good since it would have sat in the kettle less. We also ordered the crab nachos. Little bit of crab and a lot of chalky cheese sauce. My husband ordered a Manhattan and got a fruity drink in a highball glass. Overall, I won't be coming back here except for a glass of wine.
