“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.“

“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“

“Delicious and authentic cuisine cooked by a great chef with a superb staff. We will return!“

“I come here whenever I am in town. I love the oysters rockefeller and zucchini for apps and the chicken a la johnnys for dinner. The prices are great and I love the entertainment on a Saturday night. It's a wonderful, fun and relaxing evening!“

“The Market in Verona is so awesome. It is so great to go in and get good quality food that you can reheat at home. I recently got the Eggplant Parmesan, pasta and risotto balls. Everything was so delicious and enough for another dinner. My husband got the Chicken Parmesan and really enjoyed it also. The service at the Market is outstanding and it was so nice to also meet Andrew the owner. I am looking forward to coming back again and getting more of this high quality and delicious Italian Food that reminded me so much of what my Mommy used to make. I highly recommend them.“

“Beans and Greens were the best I've ever had! Tomato Cream and Alfredo were great! The Muffaletta changed my life.“

“we were there last Thursday to celebrate my birthday and also my bfs as they are on the same day. we heard nothing but good things. Pasta was cold, filet not prepared correctly then given back to me burnt on the outside and raw on the inside. We were so very disappointed. $200 wasted and I walked away hungry. Really don't think we would ever try again. On to another top restaurant in the city.“

“Excellent food and service at Fox Chapel location . My first time here busy Saturday crowd Gabby was a wonderful bar server actually excellent. I had Bruschetta salad which I highly recommend Over any other“

“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!“

“Had a wonderful experience today at Roman Bistro. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Our waiter David was terrific. I chose the perfect restaurant for my birthday lunch.“

“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.“

“First time dining at Ranucci's and it will not be the last. We were greeted by the owner upon arriving. Very friendly and very inviting. Our waiter was also very friendly and ver attentive. The food portions were very big and absolutely delicious. We started with a beet salad and it was so good. I had the CC's veal with crab cakes and my friend had the Sunday gravy. Both dishes were delicious and the red sauce on the Sunday gravy was out of this world. We had a tiramisu for dessert and again, it was outstanding. For a nice evening out, give them a try.“

“Great food!! Great service!!“

“We recently held my parents 50th wedding anniversary party there and it was wonderful! Everyone I dealt with, from the event coordinator, kitchen staff, and wait staff, were incredibly kind and went above and beyond to make our event a special one. I would definitely recommend Rene’s in the future.“

“This place was incredible and I can’t say enough good things about it. The ambiance was great. It’s in a lovely old house that feels both classy and comfy. The service was also great as was the food. We will be back for sure and I’d also suggest checking out the cigar bar in the back. We stopped back there after dinner to have another drink and a cigar and got great service from the bartender Jamie.“

“Friends and I enjoyed dinner at Tillie's last night and it was a great evening. Of course, the company was great but the food was also great. And, our server was a joy. She was pleasant, attentive and did a good job. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food and excellent service. Thanks!!!“

“I do not even know where to start! From the server(Dominic) who was friendly, always right there and check on our table periodically making sure we always had what we needed! the drinks, the food, the dessert, everything was a 10/10. The sauce was the best I ever had. This place is a must! It is beautiful, clean, and welcoming inside with a sense of family and friends. The host was lovely, and friendly. You can tell the owner cherishes this place,he was hands on the entire time I was there.“

“I am so glad my husband and I found Yoli's. We went there for the 2nd time tonight and every single thing we got was phenomenal just like the 1st time! From their salads, to the bread and oil, to their Yoli Rolis, to the stuffed shells, to the Grandma Bevy, the food is just unbelievable. I got the crab cake tonight and I have to say, it was one of the best I've ever had, and I've had them in Maryland! We got the canookie for dessert and it was bigger than our heads but unbelievably amazing. Plus everything is SUPER reasonably priced! On top of everything else, the staff is extremely friendly! This is definitely our go-to restaurant from here on out. I can't wait for many more dinners at Yoli's!“

“Food was excellent. Service was very pleasant and welcoming.“

“Best restaurants I ever eat we are customer's over 28 years“

“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 have coming to this great Pizza and Italian restaurant since it was on Saltsburg rd. one thing I can say over the years is the Consistency has stayed the same, The food is excellent. If you want a good Italian meal its the place to go? Or on the go.“

“great food, great service, and great employees!! highly recommend!!“

“Made reservations; had to wait a bit to be noticed at entrance. Not very busy on a Tuesday evening. Would go back for delicious food, but waitress rushed us at every course. Zucchini app was served fast. Wine cork fee $5. Dinner salad was very small, but dinners; veal Marsala & chicken piccata was generous & delicious. Seemed there was a staffing shortage, waitress was catering to party of 12 celebrating a bday. Had to practically beg for a dessert & coffee. I asked for a coffee refill; waitress replied do you want to wait on a new pot as she took my cup & saucer from me. for @ 20 patrons in restaurant it was noisy. Family atmosphere with white table clothed tables. Good parking. Would go back for food, hoping not getting same rude waitress.“

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

“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!“

“Went here tonight for my wife’s birthday. We just moved out to the east end this winter and have been trying to find good spots for a night out. This place has surpassed dinners we’ve had on vacations. Our food was incredible. Everything was absolutely delicious and looked just as good, if not better. We cannot wait to go back and try other things on their menu.
We ordered the bucatini and the chicken parm for our entrees and they were both incredible. The bucatini was perfect. I cannot recommend this place enough.“

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

“Had an absolutely wonderful experience at Ladles Restaurant! From the moment we walked in, the hospitality was genuine and heartfelt. The staff didn’t just serve us—they welcomed us like family.
What really stood out was how comfortable and inviting they made us feel. The team was patient, kind, and incredibly accommodating, creating an environment that felt warm, relaxed, and truly family-friendly.
You can tell there’s a strong culture among the employees—they work together seamlessly and treat guests with a level of care that’s hard to find these days. It’s not just a place to eat; it’s a place where you feel at home.
Great food, even better people. We’ll definitely be back!“

“We dined there for the first time this week. We told our waitress, Katie, that we had never been and she went above and beyond to give us an amazing experience. Our drinks were constantly refilled and the appetizer hot pepper cheese balls were delicious. She recommended the cheese bread sticks (they were so good!) and we thought the pizza (pepperoni sausage mushrooms) was outstanding. Thank you Katie for being so attentive. We will definitely be back Shelly Pie!“

“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!“

“Everything was great, food and atmosphere. But what really made the experience great was our waitress Samantha! It was a busy Saturday evening and she was on top of it. Great recommendations, personality and very prompt. Servers like her are what makes it worth coming out to eat.“

“Delicious mezza rigatoni in Neopolitan meat sauce“

“My husband and I have been going to the Village Inn for many years now. Everything we have eaten there has been so delicious from sandwiches to great Italian Food . My favorite is the stuffed crabmeat mushroom appetizer, bruschetta and Chicken Romano. The meatballs and pasta are so good. My favorite dessert is the Tiramisu. I highly recommend the Verona Village Inn.“

“The chicken parm was very good. Love their sauce! Stuffed peppers were delicious & the wedding soup was good too. Great server B“

“It's like being at your favorite dinner table with family and friends! With our beautiful Italian family gathering around the bar area in numbers of about 15 Friday night, we had a blast! Yes, Joe is our cousin and that is definitely warm and wonderful but Louise, Joe's matriarch, was there too which made it extra special. Lulu, chef, Delaney, "Ms. Brown", Linda and all staff were amazing and fun. So the food, sauteed arthichoke hearts, pasta fagioli, wedding soup, Chicken Romano, Veal Romano, beverage list unsurpassed and our usual standards and oh the red velvet cheesecake was picture and taste perfect. All food made to order fresh and it definitely shows the attention to every morsel we enjoyed. Oh, the bread is made locally and it's the best. We were almost the last to leave and we have all the photos to show our fun time. Can't wait to go back for their Sunday sauce. Salute and see you soon. Thank you for your "cordial" cordial to cap off the night. Highly recommend. There is nothing better than a cozy Italian restaurant that is one of a kind. Spring is here and the bocce court will be ready!“

“This is a great addition to the Southside. We had a delicious dinner - meatballs, burrata, pizza, and tiramisu - and the service was absolutely amazing. Jamie was one of the best servers we’ve ever had. We will be back!“

“Wow what an experience! Upon arriving to this location for the first time I was instantly met with the doors being opened as my wife and I carried our little one inside with their carseat because we take Uber. I was offered a holder right out the jump for the carset which in my many times dining in at a Olive Garden I have not even heard of until today. We were quickly seated with the proper amount of utensils as well as menus for both the wife and I as well as a kids menu for our 3 yo. During our visit our server Cameron greed us with a warm smile. Didn't just do his job duties but went above and beyond. He as well as the kitchen crew got us our breadsticks as well as appetizers within 2-3 minutes of requesting them. Both sauces that was requested was prompty placed at our table. Cameron was at our table 2-3 minutes after being seated and offered to start us off with drinks. Luckly because the wife and I get the same meal when we go to Olive Garden we already had a broad idea of what we were going to order. Cameron took our order with absolute professionalism and personality. Was back at our table and offered refills on our drinks as well as endless breadsticks before we even requested them. I HIGHLY congradulate this server for being top notch. Personality was vivid, not bland. ALWAYS had a smile when coming over to our table to ask how our meal was, if we needed anything additonal. Quickly took unused plates or used but no longer being used plates away to clear off our table. Speaking of clearing off our table. When my family had finished our meal, we requested leftover trays to take home what was left, in which once again Cameron delivered trays fast! Provided up the famous mint chocolates and THANKED us for coming to eat at their establishment. HANDS DOWN the chef in the kitchen made the food amazingly! Food was hot, not cold. Food was FRESH not stale. The table was CLEAN no mess on it when seated, no food debris under the table or chairs. Plates as well as forks didn't have leftover food from prior customers. Bathrooms were not nasty, didn't stink. Trash was also very well maintained. After a stressful day, finishing it off with the Greentree Olive Garden was the perfect end to the day and an amazing last meal of the day. I'm not one to often leave positive reviews, however I felt that the service that Cameron had provided to us was ABOVE excellence! Would come back again to this specific location for the server and staff alone. Thank you Greentree Olive Garden for making our Saturday evening special! :)“

“The monster slice of pizza was recommended by a fellow tiktok-er, My family decided to stop and try it out. Everyone approved and it was delicious. Tons of cheese and pepperoni! Thank you for the amazing service!“

“Although the food, service and atmosphere were excellent, the prices have gone up. Before you could order a dinner that included soup or salad. However, now it is ala carte. We had veal parmigiana and there was very little sauce.“

“The food here is TO DIE FOR!!! And the service is awesome“

“Today’s order was exceptional. It had been a minute since I ordered from here as usually my order was messed up etc. today I was craving one of their chicken salads so I decided to get that and a pizza for my kids. Both items were amazing and perfect! I understand this place is under new ownership. The manager/owner even brought the food to my car and chit chatted with me a bit. 10/10 customer service. This makes a big difference.“
