Nestled in the heart of Monroeville, PA, Coast and Main Seafood and Chophouse offers an exceptional steakhouse experience that masterfully blends surf and turf with imaginative culinary flair. This upscale eatery is an ideal destination for those craving premium cuts alongside fresh seafood dishes, all served in a setting that balances refined comfort with inviting warmth.
The menu is a testament to thoughtful craftsmanship and bold flavors. Start your meal by indulging in the Beef Carpaccio Arugula, Capers, and Garlic Aioli, where thinly sliced, tender beef melds beautifully with the sharpness of capers and the richness of aioli — a perfect shareable starter to awaken the palate. For a unique twist, the Ahi Tuna Pizzette is an irresistible bite, featuring sliced rare ahi tuna layered with spicy mayo, wasabi cream, and avocado, creating a harmonious balance of heat, creaminess, and freshness.
Seafood lovers will delight in the Chilean Seabass bathed in a smoky bacon miso broth, which elevates each flake of the buttery fish with umami depth and a subtle smoky finish. The Crab Cakes, served with whipped potatoes and sautéed asparagus, are decadently rich yet perfectly balanced. For something casual but bursting with flavor, the Fish & Chips featuring beer-battered cod with shoestring fries and poblano tartar sauce offer a comforting classic done right.

The Roasted Bone Marrow appetizer, paired with oxtail marmalade and pickled red onion, serves as a decadent indulgence and a talking point at the table.
The dining atmosphere exudes a welcoming, sophisticated aura with soft, intimate lighting and elegant yet understated decor that allows the culinary creations to truly shine. Guests like Michala Spencer have noted the warm hospitality paired wonderfully with expertly crafted seasonal cocktails—highlighting vibrant mojitos and spicy margaritas with a tajín rim.

Came here for restaurant week in Pittsburgh. Food was really good and the atmosphere was welcoming! I LOVED the Chicken Milanaise smothered in that creamy parmesan sauce and the seasonal cocktails were really good, I love a good mojito and spicy marg with tajin around the rim! It started to pick up and get busy but our server made sure to always check in and keep us informed about the status of our drinks and food! I hear the talks about their brunch so I will definitely be coming back to experience that!

Food was good. VERY expensive. Greeters have the personalities of baked potatoes. Without the butter and sour cream. Server Jeff was great. Checked on us just the right amount of times. Had great recommendations. Drinks are phenomenal.

Me and my fiancé came to Coast of Maine for the first time and the service was a 10. Julie was so friendly. The restaurant closes at 9 but they do let you still make a reservation at 9 pm. She didn’t act like “it’s the end of the night and she wants to go home.” Her energy was as if she just started her shift. She went over the menu with us and I could tell she really was suggesting good meals by the fluctuations in prices. Some waitresses will just suggest the meals with the highest price. She really went over some of the clients top meals and when I received my food I was not disappointed.

There was nothing here to be particularly excited about, but the food was good and worth the price. A solid 4 for me. Atmosphere: The lighting is a little dark for my taste (see photos), but I like that it's not loud or have blasting music. The decor is fairly traditional, nothing that stood out. Food: we liked what we ate, but aside from the bone marrow (which was delicious and uncommon for this type of establishment), our whole party agreed that the food didn't amaze. Don't get me wrong, it was good, we just didn't have anything that I think would differentiate this from another steak house (with seafood). I would go back, but it wouldn't be my first choice at this price point.

Coast and Main is the top restaurant to go to for special occasions that demand special memories combined with excellent home made food and exceptional service. All the food is wonderful. The 12 oz Filet Mignon medium rare is particularly tasty and the Asparagus and Green beans are well prepared and are of shareable proportions. I also have to call out Kelly who is the highest quality server my family and I have had at ANY restaurant. Her cheerful attitude, willingness to engage in banter and overall demeanor makes you feel like you are their one and only special guest every time you visit. She is the best and who we always request when making reservations. In conclusion Coast and Main is doing everything right and I am happy to patronize this locally owned upper class establishment for both regular dinners and special occasions.
