Hashtag: Food, glorious food! That is why nearly 2,500 guests came to celebrate Pittsburgh Magazine’s 25th annual Best Restaurants Party at Heinz Field’s Club East and West Lounges on Monday.

Dishing: Fifty-six of the region’s leading restaurants, including Franktuary, Soba, Paris 66, Taj Mahal, Union Pig and Chicken and many others. Grit & Grace was named No. 1.

Three-course event: After a VIP reception and open bar, the masses arrived, followed by an after-party at Rivers Casino, where some one-armed bandit action burned a bite or two.
