An excellent choice for fresh, well prepared seafood located in the Waterfront area in Homestead.   I frequent this area for business travel, and you can't do much better without heading downtown.

The seafood is excellent, with a daily menu crammed full of fresh fish specials, a raw bar, and a list of chef's specialties.  The house salad is sweet and delicious, and the 'shanghai' seafood preparation is delicious, healthy, and unique.  Try it with the scallops or a white-fleshed fish.

There is a nice selection of regional beers on tap, a decent selections of wines, and creative drinks (think elderflower and pear martinis).  The deserts are adequate, though not a highlight.  

If you're on the Waterfront, you won't do better than this.  Enjoy!

This is one of the best seafood restaurant I've eaten at in a long time!! Everything I have ordered has been excellent.

The crab cake sandwich served at lunch is so incredibly good. The coleslaw served with it is so fresh and always tasty.

The pecan trout is delicious served at dinner! I love love love the Sam Adams beer battered fish & chips. Huge pieces of the flakiest whitiest fish...yummy!!

For those of you who don't want fish the lemon pepper chicken is also great. It's served with fresh green beans and mashed potatos.

They have a pretty extensive beer list. You can't go wrong with Blue Moon, Magic Hat #9, or Yuengling!!

Desserts are huge!! Definately bring a friend if you want to finish it. The key lime pie with macadamia nut crust & the sharkfin pie are highly recommended!

The restaurant has a great atmosphere and the service is great!! Super clean =)

Mtchells is one of the best fish places around.  I really like their Shanghi preparation of my fish. It's just delicious.

The establishment is always clean, the staff courteous and the fish, of course, fresh.  

Oddly enough one of my favorite things about going here besides the fish is the bread they give you.  It's always so warm and tasty.

The deserts are also very tasty.  I have gotten two that I really liked

They also have a three course fixed price option last I went that was a great value. I think it was $20/person for lunch.

No pictures!  I knew I should have taken my camera!

My aunt and I went there today for Mother's day.  I think we must have gotten the lunch menu because everything looked pretty cheap (I've been to the one in Columbus).  My aunt had a chicken dinner (grilled chicken, green beans and potatoes with butter) and I had their Shanghai sampler which had a couple of shrimp, a couple of scallops and a nice piece of salmon, all done perfectly.  We didn't order dessert since my aunt had made my favorite pumpkin pie!  Anyway, dinner was great, and so was the service, thus the five stars!

This is one of the few restaurants I frequent in the Waterfront. Why would you come to Mitchell's if not for the fish/seafood? You probably wouldn't. But you can swim in the Great Lakes beer on tap here and have some nice oysters while enjoying river view. Not many places in Pittsburgh offer these types of views while dining (and that's a Pittsburgh mystery to me). The restaurant is never to crowded and you won't get packed in like sardines in a tin can. So you can enjoy a fairly romantic dinner with your loved one(s).  
The food is very good but you may have to shell out a few clams of your own ($$$). If you have deep ocean like pockets put your hook into the  sea bass which is always moist and scrumptious at around $29.99. They will cook your food one of several ways. I like my fish broiled, their signature is too salty for my liking. Bread is mmmgood and hot (free). Staff is very  accommodating ie you can request to sample a soup and the servers are pleased to do so. I recommend you try their soups like the seafood gumbo. A bowl of this creamy delight goes a long way...bonus they toss in those little hexagonal oyster crackers as  reminds me of my youth on Long Island's south shore (but that's another story). Salads a bit skimpy and somewhat pricey (approx. $7.95 for basic house salad). Bottom line is Mitchell's at the Waterfront is well worth taking the splash for if you really like a nice seafood dinner.

Finally, I restaurant in Pittsburgh that I can give 4 stars!! Mitchell's is located on the Waterfront and is one of the nicer restaurants in that area. The interior is a classic, clean, modern seafood restaurant-- dark wood, glass, etc... The menu has really great seafood selections and is printed daily.  But here's what's great about this place: after 4pm you can get "small plates" at the bar for $3 each, and these ain't no Costco fish sticks! Two of these small plates would make a sufficient meal (along with the sourdough French bread they bring out). Finally, while the drinks aren't cheap, they're creative, tasty and fresh. All in all, I had a great experience, and I think this place would be perfect for a date or a happy hour with the girls from the typing pool.
