Forks Up for Fall: Autumn Eats at the Casino
Who’s Ready for a ‘Wheely’ Good Time?
Sizeable portions, late-night closing times and a high-energy atmosphere on game days are just some of the ingredients that make Wheelhouse Bar & Grill a win for celebrating football season.
Fan favorites at Wheelhouse include the juicy, tender “colossal fish sandwich” and the iconic and generously topped Pittsburgh Cobb salad. The sports bar’s lighter bites are equally enticing, namely its wings with the ultra-popular garlic parmesan sauce, which complete any game day celebration.
On top of that, during Wheelhouse’s happy hours, guests can enjoy half-priced apps, drink specials and that relaxing post-work feeling that hits the second you smell the barbecue ribs sizzling on the grill. Happy hours are Monday through Thursday from 5 to 7 p.m.
Date Night Deals at Martorano’s
To make your evening at Martorano’s even more special, every Wednesday in October, diners can enjoy a two-for-$98 deal. This perfect date night includes a selection of the restaurant’s signature menu items, perfect for duos looking to share and save.
A recent recipient of OpenTable’s “Diners’ Choice” award, Martorano’s specializes in gourmet dishes that blend Italian and American influences. Standout menu items include the “eggplant stack,” a delectable layering of pan-fried eggplant, tomato and a medley of cheeses, and the Sinatra-style ribeye steak, a flawlessly seared high-quality, aged cut of beef, drizzled with a rich mushroom and Marsala wine sauce.
