Great customer service even though I was the one that made a mistake.“

Add to that their amazing sardines so fresh and good. Pasta Funghi another high. Exquisite detail to taste in every dish. The owners go way out of their way to make you feel welcomed and happy and very satisfied. A must visit when you are lucky enough to get a reservation though other friends have happily sat at the bar for dinner just to be there!! Kudos to Dish!“

I would strongly recommend this location for really first rate Italian food and a great atmosphere“

“My son and I had dinner for Mother’s Day. Our first experience at this restaurant. Aside from a small miscommunication where the side dishes were delivered to the table alongside the apps, everything was very good. They corrected the sides and delivered fresh with the entrees, the sides were easily large enough to share amongst three or four people and the food was very good. The app, sides and entrees, as well as the gluten free chocolate cake were all delicious. I definitely recommend this restaurant and plan to return.“

“We were passing through the area on a road trip from Toronto to Florida, followed by a Caribbean cruise, and stopped for one night at a nearby hotel. We decided to have dinner at Olive Garden, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience!

We were dining as a family, including one member with a gluten allergy and another who is vegetarian. The staff were incredibly accommodating — the General Manager even came out personally to discuss gluten-free preparation and ensure everything would be handled safely. That level of care really stood out.

The food was fresh, hot, and delicious, and every team member we interacted with was friendly and pleasant. It was a comfortable, stress-free meal, which was exactly what we needed after a long day of travel.

If we’re ever in the area again, we’ll definitely come back. Highly recommended for anyone — especially those with dietary restrictions!“

This restaurant is a gem for anyone who loves delicious Italian food!“

“We had small plates, meatballs, mussels. They were served promptly and were delicious. We ordered large plates, duck, char, mushroom pasta, lemon mussel pasta. After waiting 55 minutes we flagged our server and asked about our meals. They appeared a few minutes later. She had clearly neglected to give the order to the kitchen. The food was fine when it finally arrived. Cocktails were unique and very nice. We would give this place a 2nd try but not a serious “do again”“

I highly recommend the Verona Village Inn.“

“We have gone twice nice- Sooooo Good. The owners are the ones cooking! Joe is a master of the pizza oven. The toppings are perfectly mixed and heated to melt together and the flat bread crust technique should be studied by children!!! It’s BYOB which makes it a reasonable high-end dinner with a clean atmosphere and friendly staff. I cannot recommend it enough!!!“

“my boyfriend and i tried pelegrino’s after we got sent a menu from them in the mail. we each got a pizza, and the cost was INCREDIBLY lower than the other pizza places we’ve ordered from. they deliver as well, which is nice. what i also appreciate about pelegrino’s is the option for online ordering, which allows me to pay & tip so i don’t have to fumble whenever the delivery comes. it takes some time, but it’s always worth the wait; we’ve never been disappointed!! this is our go to pizza spot!!“

“I came here with my dad and got the chicken piccata, which was delicious! It was served with assorted vegetables which I actually liked versus the pasta. We will be back!“

“Best pizza in Pittsburgh, in my humble opinion. The service is always fantastic, and the pizza is second to none. It's a little on the expensive side, but very well worth it. Worth a try if you're in the Oakland/North Oakland area and want a very competent, traditional pizza. The other dishes are less enjoyable, though.“
