7 Best Italian Restaurants near Ligonier

“Any time I’m in town we order pizza ..“

“I had the pizza and wings. Excellent. Sauce is a bit on the sweet side but I loved it. The wings shocked me because most pizza places have sub par wings , but Ginos are great. Great quality wing an flavor. My new go to spot in Ligonier.“

“Great food, traditional western PA Italian fare, like grandma used to make! We love the chicken parm.
Right now, I'm eating their $12 chicken parm special, and it tastes great, and it so big I'm splitting it with my wife. It comes with a salad and a piece of cake for dessert“

“This restaurant is absolutely delectable. From the moment you walk in, you can tell everything is made from scratch with real care and craftsmanship. The attention to detail is off the charts—nothing goes unnoticed. The hand-cut French fries? Unreal. Salads are clearly prepped to order, and the freshness comes through in every bite. You can just tell quality is their top priority, both in flavor and presentation.

I ordered the pesto and mozzarella burger (which, sadly, I devoured too quickly to grab a photo), and it was hands-down the best I’ve ever had. Cooked to perfection, full of flavor, and paired with those amazing fries—just wow.

The atmosphere is surprisingly high-end, with linen napkins and a classy yet warm and welcoming vibe. Service was excellent—friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better.

One of the most impressive things is the rotating menu. It’s clear the chef puts genuine care into crafting a diverse and thoughtful selection. You don’t just eat here—you experience it.

I’ve already pinned this place on my map because I will be back. If you're looking for top-tier food in a setting that feels both upscale and inviting, don’t sleep on this place.“

“Buck, the owner is extremely personable. It is a great, laid back experience. The current kitchen puts out very tasty food. Another awesome aspect is going in on a morning or evening when Jess M. is bartending. She is extremely proficient. When she is getting to know you, she will immediately remember your drink of choice and have it on the bar soon after you walk in and before you get to a seat. Boy to have a memory like that. By the way she will remember your name too. Not many ordinary people can give themselves credit for that. It is obvious she respects and likes the customers and regulars. Great customer service. You won't ever feel forgotten. You are in good hands when you go in on her shift. Highly recommend.“

“My little is absolutely OBSESSED with your pasta! There’s no better day than when she gets to eat her butter bread and sketti. You can’t go wrong no matter what you order.“

“This is really good pizza! Our usual places were closed on Sunday, so we gave this place a try. Glad we did! I really appreciate the well-seasoned, peppery sauce and quality pepperoni at this pizzeria. They also politely honored our weird request for no cheese. Thanks! :-)“
