“Delicious food & great service!!! Will be back soon!!!“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Fontana's Cafe, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely incredible—some of the best I've had in a long time. The steak sandwich was cooked perfectly and packed with flavor, while the honey garlic salmon was exceptional and truly unforgettable. The menu offers something for everyone, and it's clear that quality and care go into every dish.

The atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and relaxed, making it the perfect place to enjoy a great meal with friends and family. To top it all off, the live music by Bare Bones Acoustics was fantastic and added so much to the evening's experience. The band created the perfect soundtrack for an already wonderful night.

A special shoutout to Steve, the bartender, who was absolutely perfect. His friendly personality, attentive service, and professionalism made us feel right at home. Great food, great music, great service, and a great atmosphere—Fontana's Cafe exceeded every expectation. I highly recommend it and can't wait to return! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“The food was absolutely delicious and served piping hot. The staff were friendly and always smiling, which made the experience even better. Nearly everything is made from family recipes, and their red sauce is amazing—wow! Diane, the owner, is constantly on the move, helping out and greeting guests whenever she can. We've never had a bad meal here! Kids are always welcome.“

“I enjoy the one in Penn Hills there pizza is the best around Penn Hills it can’t be beat“

“Great pizza, friendly and fast service.“

“The Pizza is so delicious, never disappoints, will Definitely return!“

“The Gyro Pizza was top tier, easily the best gyro pizza I've ever had. They perfectly layer all of the ingredients on the pizza so each bite is uniform and delicious. Maybe a touch crust-heavy, but the crust is tasty too so it isn't a huge deal. The Bavarian Pretzel was also really solid as an appetizer.“

“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!“

“This is a true hidden gem! Awesome food and fantastic staff!“

“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.“

I had the basil gnocchi.“

“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!“

“Margherita pie is SO delicious. I just went for happy hour last week. You have to see all the apps, drinks, and pizza specials! So good!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Absolute GEM at the Latrobe Airport! ✈️🍝❤️ If you haven’t been to DeNunzio’s Restaurant at the Latrobe Airport, you are truly missing something special. From the moment you walk in, you’re wrapped in that warm, old-world Italian atmosphere — rich wood ceilings, glowing chandeliers, cozy bar seating — it feels like you’ve stepped into a place where memories are made and traditions matter. 🇮🇹✨ Manager Anthony DeNunzio couldn’t be more welcoming. Genuine, gracious, and hands-on — you can tell this isn’t just a restaurant, it’s family. And speaking of family, knowing Anthony just took his grandpa (in his 90s!) on a special outing says everything you need to know about the heart behind this place. That kind of love and respect carries into how they treat every guest. ❤️ And let’s talk about the staff! Sweetest bartender ever? That’s Terri! 🙌 She’s warm, attentive, and makes you feel like you’ve been coming there for years — even if it’s your first visit. Total sweetheart and absolute pro. Now the FOOD… WOW. The Seared Diver Scallops were perfection — beautifully cooked, tender, and bursting with flavor. 🐚🔥 And the Pasta Fagioli soup? Comfort in a bowl. Rich, hearty, authentic — the kind of soup that makes you close your eyes for a second after the first bite. 🍲 This is more than just a meal — it’s an experience. Quality family. Quality food. And most importantly… quality people. 👏 The DeNunzio family has created something truly special at the Latrobe airport. Whether you’re flying in, flying out, or just looking for an unforgettable dinner — go. You’ll be so glad you did. 💛🍷“

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

“We were passing through New Stanton, and had dinner at La Tavola. We sat at the bar, and had incredible service from Sandy, the bartender. The food was incredible. We had the artichoke appetizer, a Caesar salad, and the Veal Picatta and the special, which was a Swordfish with lump crabmeat. Also, the Crème Brûlée. All was incredible, and Chef Lou came out and chatted with us. A very special gem of a restaurant, which we would highly recommend!!“

“Nice social club. Great food and great prices“

“We enjoyed the mason jar appetizer (very unique), ramen bowl and macaroni and cheese. Service was attentive and the atmosphere was pleasant. Large menu with quite a lot to choose from. Can’t wait to return to try other items. Highly recommendable!“

“We had a Great Experience at Corleones! Ordered the spaghetti and meatballs, Chicken Parm, and pizza. All was delicious and the service was fantastic!!! I will definitely be back! Our new favorite restaurant. Will recommend to family and friends!!“

“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.“

“Had dinner at Sforno, had a Betty White pizza, Cluck Norris, bread sticks, meatballs, and Greek flatbread also brought home a piece of strawberry cake! So silky and delicious. Everything was awesome! The waitress was great and the owner made sure we had anything we needed! Will definitely be returning! Thank you for a great experience!“

“As always, Persichetti's is amazing. They consistently provide a cozy, family friendly atmosphere and delicious food. I cannot stress enough how amazing the Gingerbread Man seasonal cocktail is. Such a cute presentation and so yummy!“

“My family has been eating here for 40 years. Best pizza in Western PA.“

“Walways love Olive Garden. The food is always wonderful and the price is right. The service is unbeatable. the atmosphere is warm and comfortable. My wife loves the lasagna and I tried the new the new Calabrian Steak and Shrimp Bucatini. Give the chef a raise for this one. Wow, what an entrée! Keep those high standards going. You are kickin' it!“

“5/5 for catering, overall dining experience, food is always amazing, and just impressed when we go in.“

“We ordered a regular pizza, the poulich pit pizza, garlic knots, and the giant pretzel. Everything was amazing! Its alil bit of a drive but 100% worth it!“

“Food is amazing and they are always friendly, and their delivery is always fast and efficient.“

“We’ve been to the Murrysville location a number of times now and most recently ordered a deluxe sandwich tray. The owner and staff have been so friendly, every time making sure we had what we needed. For our recent catering order, the owner explained the labels, walked me through all the toppings that are included, and why she gave me the mayo and vinegar on the side, etc. Everyone at our party raved about the hoagies from the tray and asked where we got them. The quality of the bread, meats and toppings are all exceptional and very unique - and the variety of hoagies is so extensive it’s hard to believe. My personal favorite is Nonna’s Veggie - it’s eggplant with roasted peppers, broccoli rabe and sharp provolone. I’m so happy to have another great business like this in Murrysville and I wish the owner nothing but success. Give this place a try!“

“Having travelled from Melbourne for dinner with family in Drouin we were very impressed with all aspects of our experience at Luciano's. We most certainly recommend any decerning diners to visit this lovely restaurant for lunch or dinner. Long distant visitors from Perth WA via Melbourne. Cheers, The Moth & Co“

“We just had my daughter’s wedding shower here and everything was absolutely perfect from the room and table set up, the food, the mimosa bar and the friendly staff. The guests had a choice of stuffed ricotta shells with meatballs or chicken parmesan and both dishes were delicious! Claps to the chef. They also offer gluten free, vegan and child meals. The venue is reasonably priced, spacious, clean and in a convenient location with plenty of parking. A big thank you to the owners and staff for their hard work and assistance in making my daughter’s wedding shower a very special and elegant event.“

“My family stopped by on Saturday afternoon ordered a Pgh pizza and loaded fries. The Pizza was out of this world. The fries were fresh cut and delicious. Our server was Jodie and she was so friendly and efficient we never had to ask a refill on drinks. Most pleasant trip there ever.“

“Love the pizza and wings, and the meatballs are delicious“

“Always order at the Arnold Palmer Airport location and food is always delicious. They deliver to us in the terminal and always so nice.“

“I hadn't placed an order in a while, but on Thursday I was so glad I did. The Western Reuben was delicious. The corned beef was so tender. *Sorry, I should have added that the staff is always so friendly*“

“GREAT FOOD!!! Huge portions and made to order. Had pizza, salad, fresh cut fries and the HUGE fish sandwich. Can't wait to try more on the menu!!!“

“I love your food! The salads are my favorite! Keep up the great job!!“

“Biscotti Brothers make delicious biscotti. I thought I would be able to go straight to the bakery to buy various flavors of multiple biscotti. It's impossible to find all the various flavors they make at different grocery stores. My new favorite is pumpkin pecan biscottini. However, I discovered the bakery in Greensburg, does not sell to the general public unless you order them online and have them shipped. Which can get alittle expensive. Delallo's in Jeanette sells Biscotti Brothers products under the Delallo brand name, however, they have only a fraction of the flavors available.“

“get a lot of lamb on gyro and cucumber sause is out of this world. pizza 🍕 great.“

“Penn Murry catered for my husband’s birthday party and it was fantastic!!! The food was beyond amazing!! All of my guests loved the food!!! They all wanted to know which catering company I used. Their Italian tomato sauce is out of this world! It reminds me so much of grandmother’s cooking and my childhood home in Brooklyn!! The owners are so nice! Without a doubt, I highly recommend Penn Murry! Five star rating!!“

“Already excited to go back! I ordered the Chicago Deep Dish pizza and the Italian hoagie, and after a recent trip to Chicago I honestly wasn’t expecting much from the deep dish. I was completely blown away. The crust, the sauce, the whole thing was incredible — and the hoagie was just as impressive. Grandslam Pizza is a must‑try. They also run tons of specials, so keep an eye on their social media for deals.“

“Love their gluten free flatbread!“

“The service was fantastic! She was friendly, efficient, and patient with our table. I guess we picked the wrong day for a big group. It was their wing night. It was very busy. They had us sitting in front of the fireplace, which was very hot, and we were really crammed at our table. The appetizers were delicious, but my main course was a bit bland. I had the fettuccine with vodka sauce. It tasted much better as a leftover with garlic powder and parmesan cheese over it.“

“Best Pizza in Monroeville and also the best Eggplant Parmagiana“
