There is a new and exciting place to eat in town. Dinette specializes in thin crust pizza and has an impressive wine list that changes weekly. Aside from their menu and wine list, the restaurant makes itself unique by being committed to buying local, seasonal and organic ingredients for their food. Dinette also reuses, recycles, composts and uses energy efficient appliances to help shrink their carbon footprint.

The chef and owner, Sonja Finn, left Pittsburgh 11 years ago and got her degree in culinary arts from the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York. She then acquired experience cooking at restaurants in New York, North Carolina and California.

Dinette is open for dinner from 5-10 Tuesday through Thursday and 5-11 on Saturday and Sunday. For more information, call Dinette at 412-362-0202 or visit their website at www.dinette-pgh.com. Dinette is located above Fed Ex and next to Borders on Penn Circle South.
