My boyfriend and I are taking his parents to the airport in Pittrburgh, which is a little over an hour from where we live. I've been there several times, and have run into a good restaurant or two but was curious if anyone else knew of any restaurants that just couldn't be passed up. Not looking for anything super duper expensive but other than that I'm completely open to suggestions...can anyone help?

Hi, I live in Pittsburgh and I have eaten at the following restaurants and can reccomend them.
The Olive Press is in the Hyatt at the Airport. Very yummy and they can check their baggage in and then you can go and enjoy a lovely meal. A bit pricey though.

The Hyholde is a short drive but extremely expensive. Very beautiful and a wonderful experience. The food is amazing. It is in a former private home. If it is snowy it might be a bit difficult to get to.

Not quite as impeccable and unique as it was under its original owner, Isabela on Grandview still presents a romantic dining experience. The restaurant sits perched atop Mt.

The menu is a prix fixe "fixed price" seven course experience, and the small intimate setting (seating 40 on two floors) adds to the charm.
