Popular Pittsburgh-Based Restaurant Chain Expanding

PITTSBURGH, PA — Just months after adding a third location, a Pittsburgh-based restaurant chain is preparing to soon debut a fourth.

Moonlit Burgers opened a third location in Sewickley in September. Early in the new year, the restaurant will open in a space on Penn Avenue formerly occupied by a Primanti Bros. eatery. That restaurant closed in June.

A specific opening date has yet to be announced.

Moonlit Burgers, which began as a food truck operation, opened its initial bricks-and-mortar location in Dormont. Moonlit also has a restaurant on Forbes Avenue, Uptown, on the Duquesne University campus.

Moonlit specializes in smashburgers, but also has chicken, chili and salads on its menu.
