Pittsburgh-Wedding Rehearsal Dinner
 
Hi, <BR> <BR>My husband and I will have the honor of hosting our son's rehearsal dinner in Pittsburgh next September. We anticipate approximately 25 people will attend. I'm looking for some recommendations/ideas -- good restaurant, dinner cruise, etc. We're not TOO concerned about cost but want something fun (and maybe a little different) where a (probably stressed out) group can relax and enjoy. <BR> <BR>Thanks so much for any help you can offer! <BR> <BR>Nancy

<BR>there are many excellent restaurants in PGH..and also the Gateway Clipper Fleet party boats....Pgh encompasses a huge area....give me an idea of what part of town the church would be on and I`ll have a better idea..I`ll <BR>list some rest.for you....Mt. Washington .Clipper Ships or Grand Concourse(at Station Square,where you board the Ships) might be some good suggestions...if it were me,I would ask my future daughter-in-law or son(if he lives there)for some ideas...

I'd recommend also the Grand Concourse! <BR>Get the River Room. If your up for dancing/ bar afterwards there are plenty of choices in Station Square+ plenty of parking.

Please tell us which part of the city/suburbs the locals will be coming from. We are a quirky bunch here who detest traveling from the western suburbs to the eastern, from the northern to the southern - thanks to the lovely (NOT) highway system we enjoy.

My favorite is the Tin Angel - built on the side of a hill, great food, service and view. Not sure if it is still open, as I haven't been to PBG in a few years

We just had dinner last week at Monterey Bay - a (primarily) seafood place on Mt. Washington w/ okay food but spectacular views of the city. The restaurant is located on the upper floors of an apartment building, and they do have a private dining room. Their phone # is 412 481 4414; fax # is 481 4448. As previous posters suggested, let us know the part of the city you're centered in and better suggestions will be forthcoming. Congratulations! <BR> <BR>PS -- Tin Angel IS still open; it gets mixed reviews these days.
