text: The Eco Bistro is the only lunch option (other than a coffee shop that also has some lunch items) inside the Allegheny Center Mall.  When workers inside the mall don't feel like venturing onto the somewhat scary East Ohio Street for lunch.\n\nThe Bistro opens at 7 for breakfast.  There are daily specials along with the staples (bacon, eggs, sausage, pancakes, breakfast sandwiches).  There is also an \"express\" buffet that charges per pound and features items such as corned beef hash, potatoes and ham.  \n\nLunch features a made to order sandwich station, a pizza/salad station, soup, salad bar and a grill.  The grill has items such as burgers, chicken, hot dogs and fries along with a daily special.\n\nPrices can add up and be high unless you get one of the special combos and the food can be hit or miss.  There are plenty of tasty entrees and sometimes there are unique items, but recently, the menu seems to have a lot of repeats of \"easy\" dishes like chicken fingers.  \n\nOverall, not bad and I enjoy the convenience but wish the prices were a little lower.
