Downtown Pittsburgh Mediterranean restaurant issued consumer alert
PITTSBURGH — Allegheny County officials issued an alert to the public after an inspection found multiple violations at a downtown Pittsburgh restaurant.
The Allegheny County Health Department listed numerous violations for Christo’s Mediterranean Grille, which include:
- Cold food held at unsafe temperatures
- Inadequate facilities to maintain temperature
- Inadequate pest management
- Lack of a Certified Food Protection Manager
The inspection report indicates two of the violations create a high risk for foodborne illness: food being held at unsafe temperatures and inadequate pest management.
The report further explains that the temperature of the walk-in cooler where items like raw salmon and cooked chicken are stored is around 46-47 degrees — when it should be 41 degrees or below.
Health officials also say there are “large amounts” of large German roaches in the kitchen, despite employee claims of monthly treatments. There are also mice droppings by the server area.
The report also indicates lower-level violations, such as plumbing issues, prepared foods without date marking and the lack of a certified food preparation manager.
The restaurant was given corrective actions for each violation.

Steelers CB Named Breakout Candidate
PITTSBURGH — The future appears bright for the Pittsburgh Steelers after making some smart additions via the NFL Draft over the past two offseasons and one of their newest additions could evolve into a star soon.
Dan Pizzuta of The 33rd Team named the Steelers’ 2023 second-round pick Joey Porter Jr. as one of seven candidates for a breakout season in 2024.
“If there’s one way to respect a cornerback, it’s to avoid him in coverage. Porter had the seventh-lowest rate of targets per coverage snap among corners, which is partly why his raw production numbers aren’t awe-inspiring,” Pizzuta said. “It’s a sign of good coverage, not a lack of production. Porter will go into Year 2 as the clear top corner for the Steelers’ defense on a pass-coverage unit that was improved this offseason.”
Porter Jr. got his feet wet during his rookie season and eventually took over No. 1 cornerback duties down the stretch of the regular season, which was desperately needed as the Steelers dealt with a depleted defensive backfield.
Last season, the Steelers took their time integrating Porter into the defense but he will hit the ground running in 2024, with his team facing a pivotal season surrounded by high expectations.
