50 Best Italian Restaurants near Bethel Park

“Food was average. Not sure why this place has such a cult following but maybe I'm missing something. Our waitress (Hey Sweetie) cared more about talking to her coworkers than taking care of our table. Needed to remind her twice that we never received bread. She stated it was still baking but we could see they brought it out and other tables were getting it.“

“Really a quite incredible restaurant! Came here with my grandmother. It was extremely quiet and formal. Very easy to make conversation. Our server was very kind to us, and making sure all of our food was always quality and refilling drinks. Soup and salad served as appetizers were delicious, as well as our entrees. I, personally, recommend the Shrimp Carbonara(Spaghetti in a creamy sauce topped with shrimp.) Overall a great place to eat out if you are in a smaller group and do not have kids with you.“

“Was here this past Saturday for a private gathering on the second floor. Did was very good, it was presented buffet style. Only negative I had was entrance was from the one side of the restaurant up a rather steep flight of stairs. I was curious what they did in the winter time to prevent people from slipping on the stairs and the rational of this as apposed to having a stairway from inside the restaurant. Other than that like I said the food was very good, full bar and the one waitress did a fantastic job.

Update, ate here last week for lunch and again tonight 9/19/24, I think this will be my new go to, closer to home and better menu and they are open till 11pm, the kitchen also closesat 11.“

“I had your competitor’s pizza Caliente’s wasn’t as good as this! I really like it! And delivery man was nice too! I won’t order any pizza in future only Olive Oil’s believe Me !👍🏼“

“A group of 5 of us visited Dish last night and the meals were amazing. Grilled Squid, the best I have ever had. Where else can you find it not breaded and fried? 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!“

“First time dining at Senti. Not a big menu to choose from, but what you do get is quality. The apps were very good to start the evening and the dinners were excellent. Nice portions and very tasty. Drinks are very good and paired nicely with dinner. We will definitely be back.“

“Delicious food! Huge portions! Will be back!“

“Authentic Italian dishes So delicious and kind service“

“This location was recommended for a medical school reunion in Pittsburgh by our alumni association. The food was excellent and the portions very generous. We did the family style dining for a large group, and it was very well received. One of my Italian classmates sate the the Cacio e Pepe was the best that he had tasted outside of Milan. I would strongly recommend this location for really first rate Italian food and a great atmosphere“

“Always delicious! I love the options for food they have. We did however go between the lunch and dinner rush, and their pepperoni sticks, weren't very fresh, they should have tossed those and made new ones. But we were too hungry to ask or wait for fresh ones.“

“Great food and cocktails! Cauliflower dip is amazing!“

“Bar Marco did an amazing job for our wedding. The food is so good that all of our vendors were thrilled when we told them the venue, and our guests similarly raved. The staff took the time to know our order of events and requests and accommodated accordingly. Highly recommend.“

“We have been going to Piccolo Forno for years. It is my favorite restaurant. The staff is outstanding. The food is creative and menu items are changed regularly to make use of seasonal ingredients. There are so many delicious choices on the menu that it is difficult to decide what to order. The food is reasonably priced and the corkage fee is less than most restaurants. This restaurant is a gem for anyone who loves delicious Italian food!“

“Delicious mezza rigatoni in Neopolitan meat sauce“

“Very good food great menu!! Everything is delicious“

“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”“

“Stellar Italian street cuisine. Love the diavolo sauce and probably the best meatballs I’ve had. Many more dinners await 🤤“

“Best meatballs ever! They treated us like royalty there too. Not surprised because Tim has always been a good dude! The one pound burger is insane, and the huge portions will take care of us for the next few days. Not kidding!🍴YUM 🇮🇹“

“I cannot stress enough how amazing your restaurant and staff are. We’ve been patrons for years and have never experienced any issues. Our most recent two visits with our 3 young grandchildren were effortless! We love the food and staff so much. I will mention Vince as he waited on us both times and is so attentive as ALL the staff we have had. We love the mother/daughter staff, but I regret that I don’t know their names. My personal favorite is the custom calzone. I asked for thin dough and both meat and marinara sauce on the side. I was delighted that it was all perfect and I took half home! It was just as delicious reheated in my oven. Thanks Nick and staff!!! ⭐️🌟⭐️🌟⭐️🌟⭐️🌟🏆🌟⭐️🌟⭐️“

“Food and company was great. Soup -delish. Pizza was soft but had a great crunch. Pepperoni was a little spicy but still a wonderful huge slice of pizza.“

“What a surprise! My daughter chose this for her moving away dinner…we had never been there so wasn’t sure what we would get… it was absolutely delicious! It’s a very rare occasion that you find a restaurant that can properly cook seafood, especially mussels and scallops…. They did a fantastic job. Our server Alexis W. was awesome as well!“

“Fantastic food. Great atmosphere, friendly people. Drink selection was also awesome. Will be returning soon!“

“this has become my wife and I's favorite Italian restaurant in the South Hills. portions are huge. Food is absolutely delicious. Quick warning though if you order the stuffed hot peppers they will be HOT. They're absolutely delicious though!“

“We were there on Saturday at 4pm. Parking lot already had at least 1/2 dozen cars. Did not have reservation so decided to eat at bar. I have never eaten at bar seating before so I wasn’t sure if I would like it. Let me tell you, it was so enjoyable! The bar was completely full within 15 minutes and the bartender was awesome. She was so friendly and competent. Complete pro!! No one was ever waiting for anything! Food was delicious. I will definitely sit at this bar and eat anytime.“

“Absolutely fantastic service. Suzie took great care of our table, which had about a dozen people. No empty drinks, orders all came out perfectly. I have sever food allergies, and the kitchen was super accommodating. Suzie brought out the kitchen Manager, who made me a delicious meal. Highly recommend this Olive Garden!“

“Originally went elsewhere to eat and the service was so bad, we walked out. End up at Olive Garden. So glad we did. Our server, Beth, was amazing. She was so attentive, was able to multitask, very pleasant! The food was delicious. It is out of our way to go there but I will be returning for sure. If you go to Rt 51 location, ask for Beth!!“

“Shout out to the night crew!!! I can’t help but go 1-2 nights/week and every time I go the vibes are good and the food is better. They keep their spirits high and chicken spicy!!!

Keep up the energy night crew! See you next week ??“

“Pizza is very good“

“Love the food & people here! 👍👍“

“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!!!“

“Our new favorite restaurant to visit in Pittsburgh! Everything we’ve tried has been delicious, but the fried zucchini…. to die for!👌 *chef’s kiss*“

“Yolis Italian cuisine is amazing, always a pleaser, can't choose wrong on the menu! Catering is delicious, custom charcuterie boards available for purchase. Sit down n dine, or belly up to the bar. Priced right, beers cold! Come see Logan on Monday n Tuesday afternoon, she don't smile much, but lights up the room when she does! Enjoy!“

“If you’re into Legends Eatery, this is a great spot. Tried the tacos al pastor and they didn’t disappoint. Staff was super polite and the food came out quick. Clean place too“

“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!“

“Amazing food. The buffalo chicken pizza and fresh cut fries are the best around!“

“The food is delicious! We've been going for years. Love the staff!“

“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.“

“Every ravioli is amazing - better than I’ve ever had anywhere! Avi is also a really great person. Highly recommend!“

“No flowery words needed. It's a bar where people actually TALK to one another. Conversation. No constant texting. This place is a gem for humans who want to relate and connect. The bar is Eden to the nth degree.. I'm not a foodie. Although the cuisine here is beyond delicious. But the attraction? It's the forgotten joy of human contact. Don't miss happy hour.“

“We order takeout from Armstrongs Express quite often and it’s always consistently good! My husband loves their wings. We’ve tried a lot of items on the menu and are always satisfied and full. The staff is so friendly and kind!! I also love that they have a few parking spots reserved for takeout costumers since that parking lot can get busy. Only downside is that they are closed on Sundays when we often want to order takeout“
