Housed in a fairly nondescript setting adjoining Pittsburgh’s Westin Convention Center hotel, The Original Fish Market excels in fresh fish and other seafood dishes and keeps crowds coming until the wee hours. First opened in 1998 as The Pittsburgh Fish Market, the restaurant emphasizes freshness and simplicity of preparation. Order the Market Catch with preparation choices of grilled, blackened, steamed or curried. Raw oysters are available, and baked oysters appear as one of the starters, along with lobster bisque, cream of blue crab soup and chilled shrimp. Featured entrées include crab cakes and wasabi-crusted ahi, while meat and poultry options include rib eye steak, lamb shank and poached herbed chicken breast. An extensive sushi list is another highlight of the menu. Try the wild berry bread pudding for dessert.
Full bar. Serving lunch Mon–Fri, dinner nightly. Late-night Fri–Sat.
"Main courses are superb."
