The RLA Learning and Conference Center is an official Green Star™ Certified center with a Sustainable Dining program. We pride ourselves on providing healthful cuisine to our guests, nourishing both the mind and body. Over 50% of our produce and protein is grown at local farms and we also use 100% compostable wares on our break stations. We are also designated Silver by the Sustainable Pittsburgh Restaurant Program.

AM and PM Nutrition Breaks
Our nutrition breaks (continuous AM and PM) and lunch menus reflect the seasons and change daily so that our chefs may create meals and nutrition breaks using the freshest in-season produce at the time of harvest from local farms. It offers the highest quality farm-to-table approach. Every dish is made-from-scratch, including luscious desserts by our in-house pastry chef.
Lunch and Dinner
Choice and Selection... We serve executive-style buffet menus in the informal dining room or we will cater to your meeting space(s) (groups 25+). We do our best to accommodate specific meal service times, but exact availability will be determined by our event schedule.
