We’ve all been there. Starving, we wolf down a meal we grabbed from the local fast food joint. Within a few hours, however, we can feel our stomach beginning to grumble, complaining of hunger again. On the other hand, there are some meals that just fill us up and leave us stuffed for the rest of the day. If that’s the kind of meal you crave, order the best fish sandwich in Pittsburgh at this unassuming restaurant.

Work up a hearty appetite before you sit down for a meal at Emil’s Lounge, in Rankin, perhaps best known for its famous fish sandwich.

However, if you’re craving an old-fashioned home-cooked meal, try one of the filling seafood entrees — catfish, broiled salmon, or steamed shrimp. Emil’s Lounge also serves steaks cooked just the way you like.

Sometimes, though, we just need an authentic Italian meal. Make sure you visit on Thursdays for Italian night for a spaghetti dish, a hot sausage hoagie, or a meatball hoagie.
