Pittsburgh’s Entertainment Destination Wins 2017 “Best Overall Entertainment”

PITTSBURGH – April 27, 2017 – Rivers Casino, Pittsburgh’s North Shore entertainment destination, has received six awards from the readers of Casino Player Magazine including the coveted “Best Overall Entertainment” award. This is the eighth consecutive year that Rivers has been recognized by the readers of Casino Player Magazine.

In the Dining category, Rivers Casino won four first place awards including “Best Seafood” and “Best Place to Celebrate” for Andrew’s Steak & Seafood. Winner of Wine Spectator’s Award of Excellence, Andrew’s Steak & Seafood offers astute diners fresh seafood, aged steaks, unique appetizers, innovative salads and decadent desserts. Competition for Casino Player Magazine’s “Best of Dining & Nightlife” (BODN) awards is fierce, as each award is only presented to the first place selection and there are no second or third place awards.

Rivers Casino’s West End Café won the “Best Coffee Shop” and “Best Pizza” awards. Featuring casual dining with a flair, West End Café offers unique sandwiches including the hearty bratwurst-and-sauerkraut (a nod to Pittsburgh’s Eastern European heritage) and the signature Duquesne hoagie. West End Café also offers lighter fare as well as award-winning pizzas, fresh salads and mouth-watering desserts.

In addition to winning multiple awards for West End Café and Andrew’s Steak & Seafood, Rivers Casino was also awarded “Best Outdoor Concert Series” and “Best Overall Entertainment.” Rivers offers a variety of entertainment options to meet guests’ desires including an outdoor amphitheater, an array of distinctive bars and restaurants, a summer concert series, multiple gaming tournaments and monthly promotions.

“It’s such a great honor to be recognized by the readers of Casino Player Magazine,” said Craig Clark, general manager of Rivers Casino. “Every day we strive to provide our guests the best entertainment and dining options, paired with exemplary service and these awards reaffirm our commitment to every detail.”

Rivers Casino has been named “Best Overall Gaming Resort” in Pennsylvania by Casino Player Magazine for seven consecutive years.
