But, Pittsburgh, we don’t need more reviews of our most popular and iconic restaurants.
Portnoy has been doing pizza reviews for some time now across the country, so this isn’t that out of the ordinary for him. He also visited and reviewed Aiello’s and Benny Fierro’s, of course, not forgetting to mention his app or another New York-based clothing line that sponsored his video. He then literally says, “Reminder why we're here, the sportsbook app is live now, so if you haven’t downloaded it, if you like to gamble, if you like to play with us.” Portnoy then says “Minello’s” again.īarstool Pizza Review - Mineo's Pizza House (Pittsburgh, PA) /5Jk2WwdOBr- Dave Portnoy SeptemDuring a recent visit to Primanti’s Bros., he incorrectly said the sandwich came with “french fries, cheese, hamburger, tomatoes, and lettuce.” The iconic sandwiches are famous for coming with fries and vinegar-based coleslaw, not lettuce. In his latest visit to Mineo’s, for example, he calls the iconic Squirrel Hill joint “Minello’s” just after saying the name correctly. Social media has been abuzz with shares of Portnoy’s videos of him doing absolutely pedestrian Pittsburgh things like eating pizza in Squirrel Hill and drinking cartons of Turner’s iced tea.Īnd while he's gotten a lot of attention and praise for patronizing and reviewing Aiello’s, Primanti Bros., and Mineo’s in the past week, he honestly deserves none of it, and it’s pretty clear the only reason he’s in Pittsburgh is to market and promote his Barstool Sportsbook betting app, which is now available to Pennsylvania customers. The latest, and possibly most annoying, iteration of this has been the region’s recent obsession about Barstool Sports founder David Portnoy’s visits to various iconic Pittsburgh restaurants. Despite constantly declaring Pittsburgh the best city in the world, they are also constantly looking for national media, celebrities, and others to validate that Pittsburgh is, in fact, great. Pittsburghers have this weird issue about validation. Screenshot from David Portnoy's video visit to Mineo's
