The 5 Best Menus Around Steubenville

Some menus read like a mood board for your day: something bright and Mediterranean, house-made pasta, a classic diner plate, game-day fare, or a quick bite with dessert to follow. In the Weirton Daily Times Best of the Best 2025 Readers’ Choice Awards for the Steubenville area, locals highlighted kitchens with range—places where scanning the page actually helps you decide. If you’re planning lunch with coworkers or dinner with family, these five spots make the choice easy and the table happy.

Theo Yianni’s

Greek comfort meets American crowd-pleasers on a menu that ranges from spanakopita and dolmathes to gyros, burgers, and grilled chops. Regulars lean on crisp salads with grilled proteins when they want lighter, and shareable starters when the table feels festive. It’s the rare lineup that works for a quick lunch or a slow evening without a lot of debate.

Pastaio Cucina Rustica Italiana

When the mood says pasta, Pastaio answers with house-made noodles and sauces that taste like they’ve been tended all afternoon. Bronze-die cuts hold onto pesto and Bolognese, seafood pastas arrive balanced rather than heavy, and there are thoughtful secondi if someone at the table isn’t in a pasta mood. In short: classics, done with care.

White Bear

This Bloomingdale favorite reads like a greatest-hits board for comfort food—hearty sandwiches, steaks, and fried-fish days that draw a crowd. Think straightforward, satisfying plates and portions that make lunch stretch to dinner. When the group wants familiar done right, this menu lands the plane.

Basil’s Sports Bar & Grill

Basil’s is built for variety. Half-pound burgers, wings, and flatbreads headline, but there are salads and bowls when you’re steering lighter. The page is organized for quick ordering—useful during a short lunch window—and the kitchen keeps game nights moving with shareables that actually share.

Sweet Temptations Pastry Shop

Come for dessert, stay for lunch. Between soups, salads, and light specials, you can keep things sensible and still finish with cheesecake or a cupcake. The rotating case means there’s always a reason to stop back, even if you promised yourself a small bite this time.
