Thank you Nick and especially Roseanne for everything!!“

“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!“

“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“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“My family and friends celebrated my retirement at Storms last night. The food and service were incredible! Thank you to Stephanie and her team for a fantastic evening! If you haven’t checked out Storms yet, you REALLY must! Fantastic, authentic Italian food!💕“

“The 5 stars rating say it all. I ate there the first year Chef Greg opened the door to the public. I've dined there from its earliest days until now. Pastas, meatballs and sauces are outstanding. I only wish they would bring back the Panna Cotta. The menu is limited but that's how the quality is maintained, this is not Pasta Too.“

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

“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.“

“Delicious food! Excellent service! It was our first time here and definitely recommend this to everyone! My wife and I will definitely return! 5 stars!“

“We (PTO) used Sprezzatura to cater our meal for teachers before our schools Open House, and everything was wonderful! Menu selections included: • Gemelli with Homemade Meat Sauce – twisted pasta served with a rich, slow-simmered sauce • Cavatappi with Creamy Pesto – corkscrew pasta tossed in a vibrant basil pesto sauce The food servings were plentiful, the aroma was inviting, and the dishes were bright, fresh, and full of flavor. You could truly taste the quality of the ingredients. Jen was excellent with communication throughout the process, making everything smooth and easy. We would definitely recommend Sprezzatura for your catering needs!“

“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.“

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

“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!!“

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

“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!“

“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 🤤“

“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! I finally made the burrata raviolis I ordered and there wasn’t one left over! So fresh and so delicious and they puffed up perfectly!“

“10 out of 10 would recommend! Always a good meal“

“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“

“Came here when I was on a trip from out of town. The woman on the phone was extremely pleasant, which was very refreshing considering how most to-go places are nowadays. Customer service is truly top notch.

What was even more surprising was how truly delicious every part of our meals were. My wife and I were shocked by the massive portion sizes and the high quality of the food. Everything was amazing.

I will be dreaming about the next time we can come out again, and we won’t be looking for food anywhere else.“

“The best family owned restaurant in Pittsburgh. Food is impeccable, service if top notch, and an amazing mixologist behind the bar who can whip up something for everyone. They have specials every week…I’ve never been disappointed. Highly recommend! Don’t forget to check out the awesome ceiling!“

“Pizza is very good“

“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*“

“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!“

“Great Italian home cooked food. Delicious and very friendly staff!!! Love this restaurant!!!! Breakfast and lunch.“
